“Instead of a $5 trillion economy, how about a Zero Infant Mortality Economy, or an Equal Sex-Ratio Society, or a Universal Health Care Economy, or a Zero Net Carbon Emission Economy or a Nobody Goes to Bed Hungry Economy?” The brilliant Avay Shukla asks: https://t.co/0FdgQ8hO6n — PolitiTweet.org

Sorry i missed this memorable anniversary: one of my favourite moments in Indian cricket. The Indian team collapsing at the “whiff of grape” from Eng’s fast bowlers while Baig was scoring heavily for Oxford. TrevorBailey’s column said “don’t be vague, ask for Baig”.

So sad to learn of the passing of S.Jaipal Reddy, feisty, articulate & principled @INCIndia leader, spokesman & former Minister. Despite ill-health which confined him to a wheelchair in his last years, he remained a man of conviction & courage, as well as considerable charm. RIP — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks for coming! My mango&chaat lunch party for @incIndia MPs fell victim to the Speaker cancelling the customary lunch break& letting the triple talaq debate run on instead. Half the guests couldn't get away &those who came had to rush back. Won't plan a lunchtime event again! — PolitiTweet.org

My sympathies are entirely w/ Kerala CM ⁦@vijayanpinarayi⁩ on this request. To hit a disaster-affected state w/a bill for ₹113 crores, when you have given them very little relief assistance&denied them foreign assistance offered by donors, is grossly insensitive.

Let’s make it clear: @incindia did not defend triple talaq. We welcomed the SupremeCourt judgement that declared it void. But we strongly opposed criminalising a civil offence of just 1 community. Bill punishes Muslim men while doing nothing2promote the interests of Muslim women. — PolitiTweet.org
