Fatuous. If people living in Westminster can create Khalistan by "historic vote", perhaps we can vote in Kerala to create Pakhtoonistan on both sides of the Durand Line? To make it more historic we could have a referendum on freedom for Baluchistan too? Or would Lord Haha object? — PolitiTweet.org

Can't believe the acronym for the new UK-India "One Sun One World One Grid" is OSOWOG. WOG is a Brit term of insult for the likes of us Wily Oriental Gentlemen, and "Oh So Wog!" sounds like a nasty put-down. Can only have been dreamed up by someone at @PMOIndia with a tin ear. — PolitiTweet.org

@rkdevar @rafihfilli @Starbucks @narendramodi when did i ever deride any chaiwallah anywhere? I am a devotee of chai & have utmost respect for anyone who makes it, serves it or consumes it. — PolitiTweet.org

Since when did the Communists become the law&order party? From the moment I entered politics I have not supported hartals & blocking of roads as legitimate forms of political protest. How does inconveniencing citizens do any good to @inckerala’s aims? We just alienate voters. — PolitiTweet.org

Delighted to meet ⁦@rafihfilli⁩, a brilliant young entrepreneur from Kerala who started off as a “chaiwallah” serving tea to Arabs & whose #Filli chain of stores & cafes is now larger than @Starbucks in the UAE. Looking forward to his bringing his success story to India! https://t.co/4F9b0T0G1B — PolitiTweet.org

Delighted to receive a copy of “Essence”, a book of short prose poems by Thiruvananthapuram 12th grader Ria V. The snippets of emotion and reflection offer insight into the mind of a modern Indian teen. They show great promise.

In Dubai last week, pleased to launch the RoyalAllianceGroup’s “BusinessEcosystem” for start-up entrepreneurs, w/ founders Rassal & Aslam.

Received a copy of the highly regarded book ‘RESOUNDING MRIDANGAM' from its author Erickavu N. Sunil, which was favourably reviewed by ⁦@KS1729⁩ recently.
