A day before giving birth, #WarriorMom Gazala spoke to @ButaniAshna @the_hindu. Yesterday, she became a mother, welcoming her baby girl into an AQI 300 world. 💔 Her joy is immense, but so is her worry. No mother should have to fear the air her child breathes. Fact check for

Modi’s virtual presence may keep him out of Trump’s reach, but it also keeps him out of the world’s most important conversation. The question is not whether Modi will meet Trump, but when he will once again assert India’s voice in the real arena of global diplomacy...

“Why has the Foreign Office failed PM Modi.. Why has India’s foreign policy with its most important relationship, the US, become so lacklustre.. why we are at cross-purposes with half our neighbourhood — Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh” https://t.co/7t3t9EMo0t

The Indian system doesn't allow values above 500 while the US system allows values above 500. But this doesn't explain why Siri Fort was showing 272 in CPCB when IQAir was showing 2449. Imagine the level to which official AQI data is being subdued.

Adulteration is a part of our life. Whether it’s food, drinks or medicines. Question is, do we really care? Do we?

Focus of drug regulatory authorities/govt is on pharma industry not on patient interest. Norms are allowed to be lax..otherwise there is no reason DEG should have killed Indian children after the chemical was found responsible for deaths of kids in Gambia https://t.co/CkjcnCQhdJ

Deaths caused by contaminated cough syrups lay bare a dysfunctional drug regulation system.

Women live longer, suffer more morbidities and mobility issues. Govt health insurance only covers hospitalisation, leaving out-patient care, medicines and home based care out of its purview. IRDAI needs to mandate insurance industry creates products that address these gaps.

All political parties speak for their constituencies. So this call for allowing green crackers in Delhi begs the question- is Delhi ok coughing, wheezing and gasping for air? Is the majority ok watching young kids, & elderly struggle with COPD? #pollution #delhipollution

Bihar - The State that Progress Forgot. More than 50% of its population is of working age. But not many are even looking for employment because of a lack of quality jobs. Mftg hasn’t grown in 20 yrs. Why would that state reward Mr. Nitish Kumar with a tenth term as CM?

4-yr-old Vikas’s family, all labourers, spent Rs 2.4 lakh on his treatment. After taking cough syrup around Aug 19, Vikas began vomiting." Aug 19! It is Oct Why did response take so long? They were poor. So deaths never triggered health system response? https://t.co/6FlCVVLC0o

“Politicians have told me that contesting an election..costs Rs. 40 cr. How is this financed? Foreign investors don’t want to enter sectors where they fear the govt may ‘ensure’ an Indian winner.” FDI aside,reforming electoral funding perhaps the best we can do for our democracy
