New Delhi: Twitter witnessed some angry reactions a few hours after Governor of Maharashtra Koshiyari recommended President’s rule in Maharashtra.
Congress’ Randeep Surjewala lost no time calling the Governor’s move a ‘travesty of democracy’.
Governor Koshiyari has committed a grave travesty of the democracy & made a mockery of the Constitutional process in reccomending President’s Rule in Maharashtra.
Four grave violations of the Constitutional Scheme, as expressed in SR Bommai judgment, stand out.

CPI’s Sitaram Yechury felt more violently about it and termed it ‘butchery’.
The Governor of Maharashtra had given time till 8.30 pm today to NCP leader Shri Sharad Pawar. Then how can he recommend President’s rule before the expiry of the deadline? This is the butchery of our Constitution. #Maharashtra https://t.co/hDWsX484gV

Not everything is a 2 States storyline, Mr. Bhagat…
Maharashtra Politics:
Before election:
B: I love you
S: I love you more. Can’t wait to get married.
Post-election:
B: People have spoken. Let’s get married.
S: Mummy was saying, ek do ladke aur dekh lo. Bas mil lo.— Chetan Bhagat (@chetan_bhagat) November 12, 2019
Congress’ Sanjay Nirupam is only making a confused situation more muddled: is he blaming BJP and Shiv Sena for the lack of government in Maharashtra or saying the Congress can’t support the Shiv Sena?
Congress has no moral responsibility to form a govt in Maharashtra. Putting any blame on us for the instability is meaningless.
Its the failure of BJP and ShivSena which has brought the state on the doorstep of President rule.#MaharashtraPoliticalCrisis

BJP’s Subramanian Swamy has an ‘epic’ perspective on the ongoing power tussle in Maharashtra.
Let us not be like moralist Bhishma watching Draupadi being stripped because five stupid husbands staked her honour in a rigged dice game

Is author Aatish Taseer channeling his inner Muhammad Ali for the fight ahead? This comes less than a week after his OCI status was revoked by India.

And, is Samajwadi Party’s Akhilesh Yadav suggesting that PM Modi brings back some onions from his next foreign trip?
भाजपा सरकार में प्याज़ की क़ीमत बढ़ रही है और बैंकों में जमा पर ब्याज की दर घट रही है मतलब न आज की व्यवस्था है न कल की सुरक्षा.
साप्ताहिक विदेश-भम्रण पर जाने वाले अगर वापस आते समय अपने जहाज़ में विदेश से प्याज ही लेते आया करें तो विदेश-यात्राओं से देश और जनता का कुछ तो भला हो.

Why does Yogendra Yadav, Swaraj India, make everything about himself?
I could study at JNU (1981-83) because my NTS scholarship of ₹250 pm covered all expenses (univ fee, hostel fee, mess charges).If hostel fee was not subsidized, my parents may have found it difficult to afford my education.
Affordable hostel must be part of right to education. https://t.co/IehSMyccJI
