A deeply sobering analysis, by a Nepali observer, might offend some of us, but should serve as a useful wake-up call for those who have swallowed Govt PR too uncritically over the last seven years: https://t.co/VjUXbNcXyJ — PolitiTweet.org

The tweet by @vijayanpinarayi deserves applause. But the statement by his handpicked Women's Commission chair (& CPM central committee member) is disgraceful: https://t.co/RKRi2Sibig Which is the real attitude of this CPM Govt? They owe an explanation to the women(&men)of Kerala. — PolitiTweet.org

We're suffering a nationwide shortage of doctors to battle #Covid19, but continue to spurn fully qualified Foreign Medical graduates. Why can't we recognize foreign medical degrees at least during this period of national emergency? And count #Covid service towards recognition? — PolitiTweet.org

Excellent piece by @KapilSibal on the iniquities of #UAPA. I am proud to say I opposed the Bill's introduction in the LS precisely on these grounds in 2019. When human beings are affected, & democratic freedoms compromised, being right is no consolation. https://t.co/eQlEBoegXm — PolitiTweet.org
