UTTER IDIOCY: a self styled Hindu vigilante group storms a KFC outlet in Ghaziabad and forces it to shut down, saying can’t sell meat during the month of Sawan. Please don’t eat chicken, but why stop others? And why are cops missing in action yet again ? JIYO AUR JEENE DO for god sake! (By the way, what about the ‘mutton party’ of a BJP ally in Bihar?)

This election has thrown up some inspiring (and surprising) winners. Few can match the story of Geniben Thakore: lone Cong MP to win from Gujarat, she had to crowdfund her way to a win. There is still hope for those who don’t have big money but have a bigger heart! Stay in the public and the public will stay with you!👍

Pakistan’s leading newspaper Dawn fact checks its own foreign minister and deputy prime minister for spreading fake news quoting a non existent article in The Daily Telegraph of London! Good to see. And a salutary message to journalists/social media handles on BOTH sides of LOC: truth telling is NOT anti national, it keeps citizens informed and makes nations stronger!👍🙏

Story that must not get lost in parliament din: mass burial of 87 victims who died in ethnic violence in Churachandpur in Manipur. It’s taken six months and a SC order. Who will hear the voices of the grieving? Who will bring closure?

Lots to look forward to: see you early morning. IndiaToday AajTak . Good night, shubhratri!

A shirtless protest by Youth Congress workers at Global AI Summit against PM Modi. Surely there are far better ways to raise a dissenting voice (which is their constitutional right) than disrupt a global gathering where the focus is on technology for the future and not politics as usual? POOR TASTE.

In communal violence, it’s the poor who suffer the most. This man’s small roadside shop was burnt in Gurugram’s sector 66 this evening. Who will compensate him and many others like him across BOTH communities? Will the ‘mob’ who did this get away? And the key Haryana Qs: WHERE ARE THE COPS? (Video: Sreya )

A shocking viral video has come to light of a mob beating a young man at Bandra station while the crowd is happily filming the incident. The young man, a Muslim, was travelling in a train with a young Hindu girl (allegedly a minor) when the mob chanting ‘Jai Shri Ram’ hit him mercilessly. No sign of cops, no police complaint lodged yet, no one arrested, no investigation. This is not some remote location.. this is BANDRA, this is heart of MUMBAI.. this is INDIA. Where does the impunity to do this come from? ‘Normalising’ Hate politics? Nafrat chodo, desh jodo!🙏(incident happened reportedly in third week July)

In Delhi PM Modi says ‘criticism is soul of democracy’; in Mumbai, Shiv Sena (Shinde) smash up a comedy club after a Kunal Kamra stand up show. Will anyone in govt (state or centre) speak up to defend Kamra’s right to free expression? Didn’t like what the stand up comedian said? Don’t watch! If it’s defamatory , take legal recourse. Who will now pay for ‘thokshahi’? Will Mumbai police arrest and prosecute the thugs who are all caught on camera? Or will thuggery get away again because of a partisan and compromised state? 😡

I don’t think in the history of parliament such abusive words have been used by an MP against fellow MP : Ramesh Bidhuri has brought down parliament’s image to a new low. Yeh kaise ‘sanskar’ bhai? What’s the use of a new building when this is the level of discourse of our MPs? And why is one of our more sober politicians and former minister Dr Harsh Vardhan laughing? Awful. Shameful.

ABSOLUTE SHOCKER of the day: Ratnakar Sahoo, Additional Commissioner, Bhubaneshwar Municipal Corporation, was dragged from his office and brutally kicked and assaulted in front of a BJP Corporator by goons . All of this happening in broad daylight. A senior officer being treated in this manner is shameful. If this was an opposition ruled state, news channels would be outraging away. This has happened in BJP-ruled Odisha. Strict action must be taken else impunity of netas and their goons will remain unchecked. Will anyone speak up for Odia pride now?

At his press conference, Rahul Gandhi asks: How many journalists in this room are Adivasis? How many journalists in this room are Dalits? How many are OBCs? Only one cameraperson’s hand rises on the last question. Not surprising at all. A 2019 Oxfam report shows: 1) Of the 121 newsroom leadership positions – editor-in-chief, managing editor, executive editor, bureau chief, input/output editor – across the newspapers, TV news channels, news websites, and magazines under study, 106 are occupied by upper castes, five by other backward classes and six by people from minority communities. The case of four individuals could not be identified. 2) Three out of every four anchors (among a total of 40 anchors in Hindi channels and 47 in English channels) are upper caste. Not one is Dalit, Adivasi, or OBC. My counter Qs: will a caste census really ensure greater newsroom diversity? Or isn’t what we really need is an equal opportunities project?
