I strongly support the demand for a thorough investigation into this scandal& stringent punishment for the guilty. I am proud of my role in persuading the UAE to open a Consulate in Thiruvananthapuram and the conduct of a couple of corrupt officials should not vitiate its value. — PolitiTweet.org

Disengagement is welcome, but means little unless the status quo ante is restored. Otherwise we'll yet again see both sides declare peace, with China having changed the facts on the ground &moved the LAC closer to where it wants. The May-June status cannot become the"new normal". — PolitiTweet.org

Our @ProfCong members, including myself, are involved in dozens of interventions for our fellow-citizens every week. This one got noticed by a journalist. We should rather pay tribute to all the unsung #ProfessionalsForProgress who just go about doing their work quietly every day — PolitiTweet.org

"No country is reliably insulated from a highly contagious virus as long as it persists anywhere", write RobertERubin & @DMiliband. Rich nations need to help poor ones now. It’s morally right — and in everyone’s self-interest: https://t.co/Ha2zr8QL9Q — PolitiTweet.org

1/2 In view of the triple lockdown in force in Thiruvananthapuram Corporation for a week from tomorrow, all exams scheduled in Tvm District shld be cancelled. It's odd to cancel just centres in the Corp area, since many students staying inTvm have cntrs outside the lockdown area. — PolitiTweet.org
