After a report in @AsianetNews about the appalling conditions in which some families are subsisting in Kovalam, my Tvm office & I reached out to offer assistance. I spoke to the mothers myself & my team, that of KovalamMLA @mvincentiNC, & state authorities sprang to provide help. https://t.co/eL1rOV8U82 — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @antonioguterres on his early re-election as @UN Secretary-General. I've had the pleasure of knowing him as a colleague when he served as @UNHCR chief. He is sharp, smart, affable,"a safe pair of hands" to steer the Organisation through these challenging times. — PolitiTweet.org

Powerful, humane, moving piece by a former St Stephen's philosophy professor explains that high literacy, low poverty & no bigotry combine to ensure excellent #Covid care is available to all in a Kerala govt hospital: https://t.co/iZSiFHyupK — PolitiTweet.org

Until Parliament amends its rules and permits authorised briefings, or better still emulates other democracies & permits Committee meetings to be televised, you should all assume that what you read/hear about such matters is someone’s personal/political agenda on display. — PolitiTweet.org

Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor

One cannot prevent politicians from pursuing political goals, even though the double standards involved are reprehensible. But this is a cautionary message to newspaper readers not to take media accounts as the complete truth. They reflect what some MPs want you to believe. — PolitiTweet.org

Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor

The Parliamentary Committee rules make it clear that proceedings are confidential & not to be shared with the press. Yet some MPs (who are quick to protest if the Chairman even confirms an agenda item on @Twitter) are quick to ensure their version of events is widely reported. — PolitiTweet.org

Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor

Chaired a Parliamentary Committee meeting yesterday, which was my first venture outside my home in two months of excruciatingly slow convalescence. Don’t know whether to be amused or irritated to see the media this morning full of briefings by certain MPs who are quoted by name. — PolitiTweet.org

Someone has been sending this around the WhatsApp circuit — a welcome reminder of the days when one felt able to crack a joke on @Twitter. Not sure I would risk it now! https://t.co/LPmBlqG5l1 — PolitiTweet.org

Today is Kerala’s #ReadingDay or “Vayana Dinam”, marking a major early milestone on the road to universal literacy. Of course, every day should be reading day, but this one honours the legacy of literacy pioneer PN Panicker, whose 26th death anniversary falls on June 19. https://t.co/TInBfiwYwi — PolitiTweet.org

Grieving the passing away of The legendary Milkha Singh, who incarnated athletics for millions of Indians. “The Flying Sikh” captured the nation’s imagination w/ his life story, his exploits on the track & his strength of character. A painful national loss. OmShanti. https://t.co/9NrefGm34s — PolitiTweet.org

This unassuming man, a simple librarian, is honoured in today’s #NationalReadingDay. PN Panicker’s slogan could be translated as “grow by reading” & also as “grow as you read”. He led Kerala to universal literacy & dreamt of an India where no child would be deprived of books. https://t.co/NbDt07KQ48 — PolitiTweet.org

Honouring one of India’s earliest Dalit reformers, Mahatma Ayyankali (born in Thiruvananthapuram in 1863) whose 80th death anniversary falls today. His courage & defiance transformed access to education, roads & transport for those formerly excluded. #Respect https://t.co/3c5ngAg4rS — PolitiTweet.org

Why GoI's recent gag order is bad, &MoD's announcement of opening up war records isn't enough; we must amend the Public Records Act to promote access rather than regulate it, so transparency is the expectation, not the exception, I argue in @TheQuint: https://t.co/kGVDS7clAL — PolitiTweet.org
