Disagree. It’s not about pique. Nor is it only the ‘peanut gallery’ questioning this effusiveness. Evident that this relationship is important, but this airport greeting on the back of the joint statement with Pakistan is frankly reflective of an underconfident foreign policy.
I’m no fan of either MBS or Saudi Arabia, but Modi was right to greet the prince warmly in Delhi. Would have been foolish to snub the leader of a strategically important country out of pique. Good to see national interest prevail over the passions of the Twitter peanut gallery.

This is factually incorrect. Children above 12 are being given COVID-19 vaccinations in the US. Started with 16 year olds over a month ago, opened up 12-15 age groups also since May 15.
As of now,no country in the world is giving vaccines to children.
WHO has no recommendation on vaccinating children.

This is ridiculous and scary.
@PIBHomeAffairs
must urgently tell KCR not to make such threats.Acc to guidelines, people are allowed to access essential supplies, tend to elderly.Threats/ Marie Antoinette behaviour serves no one in such difficult times. People are anxious enough.
Will be forced to issue shoot at sight orders if people defy lockdown: KCR

About time her inflammatory signaling, rumor mongering and half baked apologies are challenged legally. This wasn’t even an apology, and given the damage and danger her comments cause- totally irrelevant too.

Unacceptable, cruel discrimination.

Really? thousands are trying to walk hundreds of kilometres to make their way home without food or water, but India’s largest public broadcaster wants people to share pictures of families watching reruns of tv shows from the 1990s. What priorities.
Please share your pictures watching Ramayan and Mahabharat on Doordarshan through twitter and facebook with

To be fair, it didn’t sound like a joke at all, and you only said it was when both
@fayedsouza
and
@BDUTT
took serious offense to your comment. Also, if it was meant as a joke, what was the punchline?
It was a joke. But, it’s clear that it is no longer possible to make jokes in front of feminists. When she got upset I apologised immediately. Why don’t you say that in your caption too? It’s bad journalism to cherry pick facts.

This is not just an ignorant statement it’s also sexist. Subtext - women are more educated and aware of their rights and their place in homes and in society, so they ask/expect more and better. Can’t have that, can we, now?

Sure, Delhi CM spoke irresponsibly, no question. However, I hope your yardstick about his not speaking for India applies to other senior cabinet ministers who have uttered provocative, irresponsible statements in the past & impacted friendly relations with other neighbours, too.
However, irresponsible comments from those who should know better can damage long-standing partnerships.
So, let me clarify- Delhi CM does not speak for India.

Digital hacking of private chats by any government, without legal permissions or oversight is purely unethical. There should be no divide over that - in the media fraternity or any other, for that matter.
@thewire_in
@washingtonpost
Many are waiting for
@washingtonpost
and
@thewire_in
stories but it should be added that the media fraternity is divided over ethical issues of ‘sting operation’ and ‘digital hacking’ of private chats. Personally, i would never ever do it or use such data. It has human dimensions

How do you extinguish an eternal flame? This feels wrong, and sad. Is there a reason there can’t be two burning separately, together?
#AmarJawanJyoti
The Amar Jawan Jyoti or the “eternal flame” at the iconic India Gate will be extinguished after 50 years on Friday and merged with the flame at the adjoining National War Memorial (NWM) in the run-up to the Republic Day this year.
