From sulli deals to hijab ban, there was a systematic through which Muslim women were targeted by the right wing. From rape threats by Bajrang Muni to attack those who speak, Muslim women have seen it all. Read my article on @womensmediacntr here:

In Assam’s Silchar, 3 workers were detained by the Silchar Police without any reason Thursday night. They were released on Friday around 1 a.m. @MohdAbuzarCh and I tried to contact the police but could not reach them for comments. This arrest is a way to intimidate the workers.

There is nothing normal in Manipur. After being there for 8 days, all I saw was destruction, tragedy and death. The government’s lax response to the situation has left the people frustrated. Read my ground report from Manipur here:

“I Used To Sing But Not Any More” - Manipur Sea Of Desolation

Officially, the number of displaced people in Manipur is close to 50,000

Home isolation process is smooth with people on ground working hard. From getting calls everyday to visit by health department, process is smooth & implementation well. I tested +ve 14 days back. Even though testing was hard. Home isolation was easy due to better implementation.

What's the basis of this decision? I tested COVID+ 3 days ago. Have mild symptoms & am in home isolation. The support system set up by Delhi govt to monitor my condition & provide care is run professionally. From a patient's POV, Centres move to cease #HomeIsolation is unfair.

Despite Delhi HC giving 4 weeks to the residents, the DDA bulldozed many houses near Tuqlaghabad Fort. The residents called me distressed said no official heard their plea. There have been no talks about rehabilitation. Where does this government want the people to go?

#StopBulldozingMuslimHomes The disgusting idea to destroy someone’s home and leave people without a shelter in a country that already has so many homeless. If you thought Kejriwal was better than that lot, you were wrong. His silence tells it all.

Garbage language but I don’t expect anythng frm people like u who have zero iota any history & politics. Educate yourself which you won’t, I am sure. That’s how ignorant people have any arguments. Israel has been doing this for the past 75 years with countless Palestinians dead.
