The age of marriage for all adults should be 18. If you’re old enough to choose a government, decide the country’s future you’re old enough to decide your own future; to marry or not. Support women’s autonomy, don’t force women to marry, don’t criminalise consensual relationships

President #RamNathKovind praised #TipuSultan as an anti colonial hero and martyr. Even as BJP tries to create communal tension against #TipuJayanti in Karnataka! So @BJP4India is President Kovind an anti national also?

If Congress rehabilitated those who harassed @priyankac19 that's BAD. But is Priyanka really choosing to join communal fascist bigoted, violent Shiv Sena, as SS claims? If that's true, such a U turn on defending secular & Constitutional values can't be blamed on the Congress.

पाकिस्तान के आम नागरिकों के खात्मे की मांग करना, एक पूरे देश के खात्मे की मांग करना, genocide है. और कोख तो माओं का ही होता है. आप पाकिस्तान को कोख कहकर बच नहीं सकते - आप दरअसल भारत में ही दंगा करवाने की कोशिश में हैं, 1984 दोहराने की कोशिश में हैं. आपको इतिहास माफ नहीं करेगी.

Dear BSP: AmitShah says "Art370 is a temporary provision", remember RSS has always said SC/ST quotas are a temporary provision that hv overstayed their welcome. In the name of "One Nation One Law", Constitutional provision of SC/ST reservations will be dumped as Article 370 was.

Appalling that activists of human rights group Rihai Manch, as well as Sandeep Pandey, Arundhati Dhuru etc were placed under house arrest to prevent them holding a peaceful #StandwithKashmir demo in Lucknow! SHAME. Showing empathy with Kashmiris is being criminalized.

Dear @rajkamaljha - take a close look at this @IndianExpress front page with a huge Islamophobic ad by the UP Govt enjoying pride of place. You can’t pretend that this is a mere commercial decision - this ad editorialises, & makes the paper a vehicle for fascism. Chilling to see.

On #IndependenceDay2022 when @PMOIndia was giving a speech asking us to respect women, support “Nari Shakti”, @CMOGuj was releasing 11 convicted gang-rapists of #BilkisBano on remission. Can @narendramodi tell us, is Bilkis not part of your “Nari Shakti” because she’s Muslim?

Journalist @RanaAyyub is accused of talking about the pogrom victims as Muslim not Indian. This, when Muslim victims were kicked by cops in the gut & forced to sing our Indian anthem. They were killed coz they were Muslim not coz they were Indian, how difficult is that to get?
