Rishi Sunak’s grandparents migrated to Kenya from present-day Pakistan , in 1935 - still Rishi Sunak is of Indian-origin.

Our great grandparents migrated a few hundred kilometers from present-day Bangladesh, much BEFORE 1935 - we are still accused of being Bangladeshi origin!

देश की सबसे बड़ी अदालत कुछ ज़रूरी मुद्दों पर कई बार फैसला नहीं कर पाती और जिन पर लेती है, उन्हें लागू करने को सरकारों पर दबाव नहीं बना पाती, जैसे सीवर-सेप्टिक टैंक में मौतें (सुप्रीम कोर्टः फैसला 2014) इन हत्याओं के ख़िलाफ अभियान जारी #StopKillingUs #Action2022 बोकारो, झारखंड

After all these years, the Nagpur Bench of Mumbai HC has acquitted Prof. Saibaba and 5 others. It would be a travesty of justice if the Order is now set aside. Let them breathe fresh air. Join the demand of democratic groups & citizens to #FreeSaibabaAndOthersNow from 10 am.

Prof. Saibaba, Hem, Prashant Rahi and others have been acquitted of all charges by Bombay High Court. ACQUITTED.

Every time Prof. Saibaba had applied for bail on medical grounds (he is suffering from 19 ailments), it was denied citing 'gravity of charges' against him. (1/2)

Great news! Professor GN Saibaba, acquitted of all charges by the Nagpur HC. To be released forthwith. Despite being disabled & in poor health, he was kept in the 'Anda cell' in jail

So inspiring. Amid the chaos, slander & polarisation, Karwan-e-Mohabbat provided solace, empathy and hope.

It didn't win the Nobel this year. But I hope it does sometime in the future.

#ICYMI

More than anything else, at Karwan-e-Mohabbat, we discovered the potential within each one of us. The power of community. Of connecting with others and extending ourselves.

'भाजपा के सांसद किसी समुदाय के आर्थिक बहिष्कार की बात कैसे कर सकते हैं? ये संविधान विरोधी सोच है।': ravish kumar आज के प्राईम टाईम में

Trolling and vicious lies have replaced nuanced debate.

In today's post-truth world, confusion, chaos and misinformation has overwhelmed accurate, verified information.
