For #MadrasDay, I wrote in The Hindu Metroplus about a rather endearing connection between St. George’s Cathedral in #Chennai and #JaneAusten, with Governor Lushington as the link… do read and repost if you find this interesting

If you truly care about the people, why would you want to shut down the Naan Mudhalvan scheme when you clearly know that lakhs of people are benefiting from it? Politics is not about taking away the food someone already has in their hands while promising to replace it with something else later. That’s simply inhumane. #TVK_Fails

TVK supporters have normalised a leader who has never held a single press meet not even now when the state is at risk… He is not even standing for himself You’re okay with silence. But silence from a leader isn’t strength… it’s a warning sign for all of us.

🚨Bihar is going through a GANGRAPE epidemic! In the last 5 days there were 11 incidents of Gangrapes of various girls and women from ages 10 to 63. Mist of these gangrapes have happened in crowded Local Passenger trains to some crowded wedding functions. Being a woman in Bihar is a high risk existence. Yet, not a SINGLE news outlet has bothered to highlight any single one incident!!

A self-proclaimed astrologer who has been elected as the people's representative from the #Kavundampalayam Assembly constituency in #Coimbatore district has triggered a #socialmedia storm of mockery that shows no signs of abating. Kanimozhi Santhosh, the triumphant candidate from #TVK, defeated her nearest rival from the #AIADMK by a comfortable margin of 42,140 votes, ending the latter's hold on the seat since 2011. At 37, Kanimozhi is a lawyer, granite-and-tiles entrepreneur, and #socialmedia influencer with a devoted online following. Touting herself as an astrologer, she had earlier made absurd claims of curing various diseases through "Medical Astrology," a field apparently capable of solving what modern medicine has struggled with for decades. She also claimed that astrology can decide when and whether a surgery can be performed on a patient. @airwindraj Read more here: newindianexpress.com/states/tamil-n…

In 1837, the Shah of Persia gave Queen Victoria a small herd of Kashmir goats as a coronation gift. She kept them at Windsor for a while, then, for reasons lost to history, sent some of them to live on the Great Orme, a limestone headland sticking out of the North Wales coast like a thumb pointing at Ireland. That was 189 years ago. The goats are still there. Nobody fed them. Nobody bred them. Nobody asked them to stay. They simply did, because the Great Orme is windswept, salt-blasted, vertical in places, and entirely covered in the kind of scrub that goats consider an invitation rather than an obstacle. There are now around two hundred of them. Pure white, slightly mad-looking, technically still the property of the Crown, which has shown no particular interest in collecting. During the 2020 lockdown, when the streets of Llandudno emptied, the goats came down off the headland and took the town. They wandered the high street. They ate the hedges of the Premier Inn. They blocked traffic on Mostyn Street and looked at drivers with the calm assurance of animals whose ancestors used to graze with the legions of Cyrus the Great. A photograph of one of them standing outside a closed pharmacy went around the world. The goats did not pose for it. The goats were checking whether the pharmacy had hedges. It did not. The goats moved on. The Royal Welsh Fusiliers' regimental mascot is still drawn from this herd. The Crown Prince of Britain is, technically, the goats' landlord. The goats have not been informed. The goats are on the Great Orme. They will outlast the Premier Inn. They will outlast most of us. They are not asking for anything. They never were.

TVK is responsible for all the mess. Seeking support only from DMK allies makes no sense. If you cannot show majority, step out. Don’t waste the state’s functioning. TN has not seen presidential rule anytime, don’t pave the way for it due to your immature mindset. It is totally irritating to see your party leaders knocking on DMK allies whom you called Theeya Sakthi & co.

How will someone who can’t even speak up for himself be able to defend the State?!! The astrologer should be sworn in as CM

@TruthNo_7 I don’t think so… he’s just playing to the crowd

@fabwrite He's supposed to be a practising catholic....at least that's what I heard.

Whatever the personal stand about #TVK‌ Governor really shouldn't be shilly shallying like this!Once people have given mandate,swear #Vijay in and then ask for majority floor test. Btw isn't it exciting...communists and (some others🤣) have to accept a Christian CM. Vango na !

#BREAKING | All TVK MLAs to resign if DMK-AIADMK come together: Sources @jsamdaniel reports @KasthuriShankar, Dr. Rajashekhar and R. Kannan share their views on #IndiaMatters with @ShivAroor

@guru_guru3333 @RamyaSadasivam @NewsTamilTV24x7 What will they do after the elections?

நடுநிலைவாதிகள், நேர்மறையான ஊடகம் என்று கூறிக்கொண்டு தவெகா கட்சிக்கு வேலை செய்யும் செய்தி ஊடகம் @NewsTamilTV24x7

97% of Indians never leaving the country isn’t just a travel stat. It explains why governments get away with broken schools, filthy streets, weak infrastructure, poor healthcare and zero accountability for decades. When people never see how other countries function, they start believing overcrowding, corruption, garbage and chaos are “normal life.” A population that has never experienced better standards is easier to satisfy with slogans, religion, freebies and emotional politics instead of real development. Travel doesn’t just change people. It raises expectations. And governments fear citizens with higher expectations.

😂😂😂😂😂 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The TN Governor has only a few hours, before Trump wakes up, steps in, and solves the issue.

Sources : Tamil Nadu Governor Arlekar has reportedly issued a strong reprimand to state protocol officials. The Governor is said to have questioned on what basis convoy vehicles and security arrangements meant for a Chief Minister were provided to Vijay. He also reportedly asked who instructed officials to begin preparations for a swearing-in ceremony at Nehru Stadium. Following these developments, the security cover and convoy vehicles allegedly provided to Vijay were withdrawn overnight, and the arrangements at Nehru Stadium have also been halted. Sources further claim that the Governor has summoned senior officials from key departments for a direct meeting today. @abpnadu #TVKVijay‌
