No person has contributed more to TV journalism in India, and nurtured more top-class TV talent, than Prannoy.

‘For permanent peace in the Middle-East, Israel must vacate Palestinian land it has illegally occupied.’
-- Atal Bihari Vajpayee, when he became India’s External Affairs Minister, at a rally in Delhi in March 1977. 2/3
I am not a supporter of Aam Aadmi Party.
But as a citizen of India, I ask: Why is Manish Sisodia, a democratically elected Dy CM of Delhi, under arrest for over a year — without trial or conviction?
And now CM Kejriwal is also arrested — AFTER LS polls are announced.
WHY?
“Congress and BJP can fight, but we need not and should not hate each other. This is what our nation and our religion teaches us.”
Remarkable speech by
@RahulGandhi
at Karan Thapar’s book release in Delhi. He’s truly a politician with a difference.
Dear Voters, remember: India has a Parliamentary system, not a Presidential system.
#Modi
is NOT the candidate in 543 constituencies.
We are not electing the PM. We are electing candidates of our choice.
Let's vote for good candidates in our respective constituencies.
A new leader is born. A leader India needs.
A leader with a new- truly Gandhian- philosophy of politics.
Politics of idealism, of love, of service, of inclusion, of dialogue.
Today I'm even more convinced:
#CongressPresidentRahulGandhi
will, and should, become India's next PM. 1
In the history of Parliament, rarely have we heard a senior minister speak such a WHITE LIE to defend a black law!
Congress did NOT do, nor accept, Partition on the basis of religion. Muslim League did.
@INCIndia
remained committed to India as a secular nation. BJP has not.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Lok Sabha on
#CitizenshipAmendmentBill
: Why do we need this Bill today? After independence, if Congress had not done partition on the basis on religion,then,today we would have not needed this Bill. Congress did partition on the basis of religion.
For anti-Hindu remarks, minister in

Bravo
@ImranKhanPTI
! His party says: “Bashing someone’s faith should not be a part of any narrative”
Has PM
#Modi

Am I ANTI-NATIONAL for asking this Q?
A bright young Indian Muslim met me yday.
I congratulated him on getting a prestigious job abroad in UN system.
He said: "But my many Muslim friends tell me 'Dont return to India. We have less opportunities, and lesser respect here."
And he - followed by me -broke into tears.
As per feedback received from Kota of Rajasthan, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla is losing the election.

Prime Minister Jawaharlal
#Nehru
was present when Education Minister Maulana Abul Kalam Azad inaugurated a new building of CSIR (Council of Scientific and Industrial Research) in New Delhi on 10 January 1953.
Having worked very closely with both Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji and Lal Krishna Advani ji, I will say with absolute confidence that…
They would have STRONGLY CONDEMNED disqualification of

They believed in democracy.

I campaigned for the Congress in Mysore, Bengaluru, Hubli, Bijapur and Kalaburgi districts.
Like Rama’s squirrel, I am happy I made my own tiny contribution to a positive change.
Now, onward to a change in 2024!
#Savarkar
Fact 1:
He can be called a Hindutva Ratna....
But he is absolutely undeserving to be honored with
#BharatRatna
He was a patriot, but a partial patriot.
One cannot be a true Indian with so much anti-Muslim animus.
Where was the President of India?
The Vice President?
Leaders of various political parties?
Where was the
#Constitution
of India, which says — "Parliament shall consist of the President and two Houses"?
Has India seen a PM who is so full of himself, and so free of any political morality?
#RajivGandhi

It’s an insult to ...
India;

Indian Democracy;
Indian Secularism;
Bhagwan Ram himself.
Why am I proud of
@RahulGandhi
?
This is why. To visit
#Kashmir
in today's circumstances - and to pray at both Kheer Bhawani Temple and Hazrat Bal Dargah in
#Srinagar
- is a great message of unity and solidarity.
This is true Kashmiriyat.
This is true Hindustaniyar.
“Defeat BJP and ensure there is no repeat of Operation Kamal corruption in Karnataka.”
I addressed a big rally yesterday at Khajuri village in Kalaburgi district in support of Congress candidate B.R.Patil, one of the cleanest pro-people leaders in the state.
Did you notice? In PM Modi's speech yday:
1) No reference at all to Nehru and other ex-PMs, not even Vajpayee
2) No mention of Rashtrapati, VP
3) No praise for good work done by previous govts. Only for last 9 years
4) No recognition of Oppn parties
5) Word 'debate' absent!
What a cultured and compassionate person you are, dear
@RahulGandhi
!
Your words of gratitude towards
#SPG
personnel will surely win common Indians’ hearts.
Our prayers for your and your family’s safety and security.
A big thank you to all my brothers & sisters in the SPG who worked tirelessly to protect me & my family over the years. Thank you for your dedication, your constant support & for a journey filled with affection & learning. It has been a privilege. All the best for a great future.
Imran Khan Sahab, you've won many Indian hearts with your heart-warming gesture of congratulating the Indian cricket team for its historic win in Australia.

#Modi
is saying that former PM

on Video Games!
Can there be anything more ill-mannered, arrogant and disrespectful than this?
He is insulting his predecessor.
He is also insulting the Armed Forces.
PM Modi in Sikar, Rajasthan on Congress's claim that 6 surgical strikes were carried out under UPA government: Jab kagaz par hi karni ho, jab video game mein hi strike karni ho to 6 ho ya 3 ho, 20 hon ya 25 hon, ye jhoote logon ko kya fark padta hai.

Real smart cities are built by good leaders.
To improve quality of life in our cities we will move to directly elected Mayors with 5 yr terms & elected councils.
Administration will be run by multidisciplinary teams of specialists & experts accountable to the Mayor & council.

Do read.
Eye opening and startling!

.
This has angered every Indian and reaffirmed in people’s minds- we can’t ever trust Congress!
Weakening India’s unity, integrity and interests has been Congress’ way of working for
Irrespective of which party is in power and who is the PM...
For India's democracy to survive and thrive,
1) Armed Forces must remain apolitical;
2) Judiciary must be independent;
3) Press must be free to speak truth to power;
4) People, above all, must be aware and vigilant.
I don’t agree with a few things

said in London.
But there is nothing he said - absolutely NOTHING - that can be interpreted as having defamed India.

Power brings arrogance. With arrogance comes abuse of power.
It's a universal law.
Ten years in power have made today's BJP the most arrogant party to have governed India since 1947.
Time to teach it to become humble.
It would have been better if India had lost scoring 300 all out, rather than 306/5.
It's not just that India lost.
THE SPIRIT OF CRICKET LOST.
SAD DAY FOR GREAT SPORT OF CRICKET.

I may have some differences with his views, but this is the quality I like in Rahul Gandhi. He is compassionate and he cares for common Indians.

Watch this.

The investigations took place in UPA tenure, so hurriedly gave him a clean chit. Please remember 1984 riots.
Indira imposed emergency to cling on to power, jailed every opposition leader, destroyed institutions like no one's business and am surprised you call them martyrs.
