Congress voteshare was highest in 1984 at 48%. So 52% voted against Congress. In 2019 Congress voteshare is 19.5%. So 80.5% voted against the Congress. Now go sit in a corner and do some homework on first-past-the-post system.

Recently an European journalist called me for my comments on #NRC . This is how the convo went: He: How can #India throw out illegal immigrants? Me: What if I were an illegal immigrant in your country? What would you do? He: We'd deport you. Me: See? He: Bye. (End of call.)

Spanish Flu (killed 17 million Indians) did not start in #India . Plague, malaria, small pox, cholera did not start in India. Gonorrhea & syphillis did not start in India. HIV, H1N1 and swine flu did not start in India. But what would an India-hating racist know? #FetidIgnorance

PM Modi does not charge #GST it is GST Council comprising all States which decides. GST on vaccines etc existed at 18% to 28% It has been reduced to flat 5% and GST Council has approved. Had you done honest work while serving Govt of #India you’d have known why 0% does not work.

I don't think anybody in Government cared to read your advice. Everybody was busy planning the world's biggest vaccination drive and getting the roadmap right. Thankfully no time was wasted on windbags and Cassandras who were predicting doom and gloom, pretending expertise.

Rushdie Trivia: In 1999 PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee lifted the travel ban imposed by @INCIndia on Salman Rushdie in 1988. He visited India in 2000. At dinners hosted by fashionable Lutyens libbies, he fulsomely praised Nehru, his clan and Congress, spat on 'Hindu Nationalist BJP' n1

LK Advani is 91 years old. MM Joshi is 86 years old. Which other 91-year-old or 86-year-old is a star campaigner for which party? Would media allow a 86-year-old or 91-year-old to take editorial meetings or decide front page stories or report from the field or run the newsroom?

When did it happen? 1985. Why did it happen? To secure release of Adil Shariyar, son of Indira Gandhi’s friend Mohammed Yunus, from US jail (for drug offences) India had to give a guarantee to US it would enact a tough anti-drugs law. Hence Rajiv Gandhi brought NDPS Act in 1985.

A former RAW officer slimed his way into ABV PMO by offering to help on J&K. He next instigated Farooq Abdullah to pass ‘Autonomy Resolution’ which would give J&K pre-1953 status. NSA and I briefed ABV. He was horrified. Cabinet rejected. That RAW officer now attacks PM Modi.

Can hospitals allow journalists into #COVID19 wards, in this case ICU? Are patients' families allowed this privilege? I couldn't do a video call with my dying father in a Covid ward. His bodybag was sealed. We never got to see him a last time before hearse took his body away.

Not an accusation. There was media coverage of Rajiv Gandhi's 'Blue Lagoon' holiday. INS Virat was indeed used, as were naval helicopters. India Today carried a lavishly illustrated story.

If Rahul Gandhi claimed to have "dismantled" Modi's image, the Prime Minister is on a relentless campaign of 'dismantling' the image of Rajiv Gandhi. From calling him 'bhrashtachar no.1", now the accusation of using INS Virat as a 'family taxi' during his vacation.

Do not forget, never forget, Kapil Sibal is author of ‘66A’, an evil law to jail anybody criticising Gandhi Parivar. Do not forget, never forget, Kapil Sibal opposed Ram Mandir in SC. Do not forget, never forget, Kapil Sibal is defending TMC in SC on post-poll violence in Bengal.

Nehru did not create IITs. Dr BC Roy, CM of West Bengal, set up first IIT in Cal in 1950; it later moved to Kharagpur. IIT Kharagpur Act came in 1956. Soviet Union set up IIT Powai; US set up IIT Kanpur; Germans set up IIT Madras (all of them with trade surplus and aid).

Registration of Births and Deaths Act was adopted in 1969. It came into force in 1970. KCR was born in 1954. Those born before 1969-70 can declare their own date, year and place of birth. Hence, KCR does not need to die. QED.

It is Modi Government which declared moong MSP at ₹7275 and that enthused Punjab farmers to add acreage to moong cultivation. But you can’t expect this chap to be honest. It’s like his claim about edu and health models of Delhi.
