Taking advantage of #covid19, the Govt yesterday passed the 11th ordinance to be brought into force since Parliament adjourned on March 23rd. See the table listing all the ordinances so far. Are we still a Parliamentary democracy? Who in the media will ask the real questions? https://t.co/fctvox433H — PolitiTweet.org

It takes a foreign newspaper to tell us what our media should: https://t.co/ONHtwOW0BH "Modi is standing aside as China seizes our land", says a furious BJP politician from border region in Ladakh, whose traditional yak grazing lands have been captured by the PLA. — PolitiTweet.org

My last-ditch appeal to ⁦@CMOKerala⁩ ⁦@vijayanpinarayi⁩ to postpone state university exams as ⁦@cbseindia29⁩ & ⁦@ugc_india⁩ are doing. My email inbox has 3800 emails from univ students inKerala begging me to speak up for them. TheGovt must listen to sense! https://t.co/6uKi5er8OH — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting idea: an international espionage network to ferret out intelligence on looming pandemics! Only problem is, it will run smack afoul of the same sovereignty issues & influence of powerful states that hamstrung @WHO on #Covid19. @jamiemetzl — PolitiTweet.org

One needs no award for doing one’s duty, but it’s always good to see parliamentarians being recognised at a time when Parliament itself seems to have been sidelined. #SansadRatnaAward https://t.co/IKy9LTO0Er — PolitiTweet.org

On June 21, 1970, my friend Tony Balis, an American football aficionado, took the only photo of the legendary Pele holding aloft the Jules Rimet trophy after Brazil won the World Cup. On the 50th anniversary on Sunday, the never-published photo was front page news in Brazil. https://t.co/enhqT4MWwy — PolitiTweet.org

Disappointed to learn today that the exams are still going ahead. I'm not alone in questioning the commonsense of this, when the CM himself has said in his daily press briefing that the situation in Kerala is alarming, &initiated strict measures to curb crowds gathering anywhere! — PolitiTweet.org
