Fr #StanSwamy deserves to be released on compassionate grounds. But if that is not possible, he needs to be hospitalised and treated humanely. Detention is bad enough, but the conditions of detention should not themselves be a punishment for an innocent man. — PolitiTweet.org

Several young people have written to me asking for support for their #UPSCExtraAttempt campaign. I spoke to the Minister concerned, @DrJitendraSingh, who was sympathetic& said GOI has no objection. But the Supreme Court has ruled against a writ petition seeking this, so no deal. — PolitiTweet.org

These controversies are absurd. If I wish on Eid, that's Muslim appeasement; if i hail ParshuramaJayanti, I'm a closet Sanghi. If I applaud some action of the Kerala Govt, I'm a Commie sympathiser; if i criticise it, I should join the RSS. Can't individuals think for themselves? — PolitiTweet.org

"The situation has mutated to evade our usual descriptors. Agony, horror, tragedy, trauma, despair, wretchedness, apocalypse, terror, betrayal, grief, and fury don’t begin to describe it." The brilliant @mitalisaran is enraged, as we should all be: https://t.co/BTeEsjo3qp — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of helping struggling Covid patients, GOI's Delhi Police has registered 17 FIRs & arrested 15 people (daily wage workers, a painter, auto drivers) for pasting posters reading “Modiji, why did you send vaccines of our children to foreign countries?” Posting in solidarity: https://t.co/jVvJV6qCiW — PolitiTweet.org

It's @PMOIndia's job, argues Karan Thapar, to inspire the Indian public: "we need the PM to rekindle hope and resolve. That’s why @narendraModi must find his voice again." https://t.co/ltEQRLYaNN But it also depends on what he says, &how he says it. Not the usual rhetoric please! — PolitiTweet.org

Fascinating. The numbers, the confidence, & the HOPE that we will "peak" soon (though plateauing at a high level, if one can mix geographical metaphors). #COVIDSecondWaveInIndia — PolitiTweet.org

Deeply shaken by this news of the passing of a young man so full of energy, smarts& promise. @SATAVRAJEEV has been snatched from us in his prime by #Covid. Pray his family find strength in this hour of grief, as all his friends& colleagues bow their heads in mourning. Om Shanti. — PolitiTweet.org

Correction: The right word is “motivator”, not “actor”. Through Nandu’s videos & public appearances — which were not scripted as an actor’s would be — he served as an inspiration to many. We mourn the loss of a brave soul - a motivator. — PolitiTweet.org

Tragic news from Thiruvananthapuram amid all the others: the passing away of actor Nandu Mahadev at just 27years of age, of cancer. A popular & much-adored actor &a resident of Kazhakkoottam, he leaves admirers & friends in shock. My profound condolences to his family. Om Shanti. https://t.co/E1CwqQzkZB — PolitiTweet.org

Last year we were given the same excuse, that Parliament would need to meet to amend the rules. Parlmnt met twice after that, to rush through the farm laws, regularise ordinances &pass the budget. But rules were not amended. Now the same excuse. Whose fault is the unchanged rule? — PolitiTweet.org

I see no contradiction in embracing both myth &reform; in being both an avowed Hindu &a committed secularist; in respecting past traditions &living the present; in supporting enterprise &social justice; &in standing on all these foundations to work for a better future for Kerala. — PolitiTweet.org

Amused to see the reactions to my #ParashuramaJayanti tweet. I recounted a story w/the same respect for Kerala culture&myth that I've demonstrated in recalling the Mahabali story. Our society today is anchored in reforms of MahatmaAyyankali, Sree NarayanaGuru, &others i venerate. — PolitiTweet.org

Excellent, thoughtful piece by @Noahpinion on the march of illiberalism around the world: https://t.co/adYR59V0RH He calls for America& India to reverse the trends besieging our democracies. It's a vital task many of us must work hard to achieve. In India, we know it's not easy. — PolitiTweet.org

@srinivasiyc Grilling @srinivasiyc doesn’t just show theGovt’s resentment of those who do what GoI's supposed to, but also the impact that his work is having.

@KS1729 @UnamPillai Actually @unampillai was indeed such a superhero, @KS1729.
