Government employee Regina Jacob, whom we met during the Committee tour, spends her spare time singing better than most professionals. This Onam song is outstanding, melodious and exquisitely sung: https://t.co/CwswG5rtgP Keep it up Regina! — PolitiTweet.org

Looks like you don’t need a beard & turban to think like the #Taliban ! Are female BJP voters in U.P. truly willing to be represented by this CM? https://t.co/OKxNHDcRba — PolitiTweet.org

Before leaving Hyderabad, thanked the quiet & effective security personnel who had protected the members of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Information Technology. Our trip has been incident free but security personnel are only noticed when they fail. https://t.co/zPUJAFtjLh — PolitiTweet.org

In Chennai on the final leg of the tour of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Information Technology. Excellent discussion this morning on how the Postal Department is adapting its offerings to provide public services in the changed environment of the 21st century. https://t.co/wZ0Xx3UoUA — PolitiTweet.org

A brilliant column arguing that the Iraq invasion was an avoidable distraction & a major self-goal by the US. These were my views exactly in 2003, strongly advocated by my friend Ahmed Rashid, arguably the world’s leading authority on the #Taliban. But Washington didn’t listen — PolitiTweet.org

Greatly enjoyed discussing IT related issues ranging from cyber security to data protection, & taking in the need for semi-conductor fabrication & the 3i’s of Infrastructure, innovation & inclusion, with @MinisterKTR @ktrtrs & his officials. https://t.co/mGwnyOx5fh — PolitiTweet.org

Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor

Hugely impressive presentation by @KTRTRS &his team. I said that as with foreign policy,we need to look beyond political divides on IT policy. If @ministerktr is setting an example in Telengana that the rest of us can benefit from, we can all gain from a forward-looking IT policy — PolitiTweet.org

The NEET exams show our Govt in a poor light: unresponsiveness to genuine concerns; admit cards not delivered to aspirants in time; failure to provide centres in towns they reside, thus requiring unnecessary & risky travels. What a disgrace to treat our #Covid warriors like this! — PolitiTweet.org

This reminds me of the American student at my graduate school who remarked in a class presentation that 90% of the world’s tea exports (at that time, 1975) came from three countries, India, Ceylon and SriLanka! https://t.co/oSKX3MnYqg — PolitiTweet.org

Disgraceful! Despite assorted Ministerial visits, the State Govt has not found a solution to the collapse of the road because of sea inundation. Currently you can take back roads to the domestic terminal but why not a possible alternative route, via the cargo complex? @CMOKerala — PolitiTweet.org

Tried out a new battery operated scooter at the T-Hub (with some diffidence in a crowded corridor!) My Lok Sabha colleague @DrRanjithReddy watched in bemusement, then tried it himself! Exciting to see the new ideas & products proliferating in Cyberabad https://t.co/AbYIvZc2TC — PolitiTweet.org

My colleagues joined me and ⁦@DrRanjithReddy⁩ in a tree plantation drive this morning. Here i am watering the jackfruit sapling I just planted & looking on while ⁦@MahuaMoitra⁩ & Ranjith follow suit. Aside from environmental benefits, it’s an investment in the future https://t.co/5mkpqVAmp6 — PolitiTweet.org

Some of the brains behind the T-Hub, the women leading key Verticals with IT Secretary JayeshRanjan, & the young men who have invented new rockets that will expand the frontiers of space, bring satellite launches into the private sector &are working on reusable rocket technology! https://t.co/htXX9IZQjk — PolitiTweet.org

Heard from some remarkable innovators at the T-Hub, inspiring &heartwarming tales from Indians responding ding to Indian needs.

The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Information Technology visited the very impressive T-Hub in Hyderabad (Phase-2 under construction, hence the hard hats) which is already India’s largest incubation centre &will soon be the world’s second largest. Listened to the innovators! https://t.co/m3k8yfuQ5D — PolitiTweet.org

Talking to MaheshBabu ⁦@urstrulyMahesh⁩ shows you why no one in Hyderabad refers to him without the honorific “Superstar”! He had just finished knocking out the villain in his next production when we had a chat behind the scenes… ⁦@JayGalla⁩ https://t.co/2ZaKSVBOIi — PolitiTweet.org

The interactive exhibits at the NationalMuseum of Indian Cinema would enthral the child In all of us — with cut-outs you can put your head through, film clips you can watch &scenes in which the visitor can place herself in front of classic backdrops, as ⁦@MahuaMoitra⁩ does https://t.co/YKcpfdQsy8 — PolitiTweet.org

During a quick visit to the remarkable National Museum of Indian Cinema in Mumbai, the Committee took in the fascinating exhibits, including a special display on “Gandhi & Indian Cinema”. Strongly recommended! https://t.co/carpCkIlfU — PolitiTweet.org

One of the fringe benefits of parliamentary committee tours is the sense of comradeship that builds up amongst MPs (often with their families coming along) — all the more necessary in the bitterly polarised politics of today.
