Not sure if News 18 anchor Amish Devgan was expecting this result on his poll regarding Deepika Padukone’s visit to JNU.
जेएनयू में ‘आज़ादी’ के नारों का मौन समर्थन करके #DeepikaPadukone ने सही किया ?
हिंदुस्तान अपनी राय ज़रूर दे ।

Sacred Games director Vikramaditya Motwane joins the band of Bollywood personalities impressed by Padukone.
Deepika’s stand is going to make a lot of young people question their parents, their peers and their government. Hopefully they’ll go out and educate themselves. And not parrot everything authority tells them.
She’s a true hero.

And writer Shobhaa De hails Padukone for the ‘biggest award’ of her life!
What a huge compliment!!!! Congrats @deepikapadukone . The BJP has decided to ” boycott ” you! Take a bow! Bigger than any Film Award. The ultimate tribute! Fight on #JNUSTUDENTS. You have supporters across India and the world.

We would really like to know the answer to AIMIM’s Asaduddin Owaisi question….
Instead of listening to CITIZENS, India’s ruling party is depending on unknowns to prop up its legitimacy
I may not be “cool” enough to recognise these “artists by day & legal luminaries by night”, but really, WHO are these people? https://t.co/Gry1AQsM4M

AAP is not taking the forthcoming Delhi assembly elections lightly, but at least it has a sense of humour about it.

BJP leader Giriraj Singh’s lessons on freedom, independence, Kashmir, etcetera, etcetera…
जिस कश्मीर को आतंकियों,पाकिस्तान परस्त और कट्टरपंथियों से आज़ाद रखने के लिए हिंदुस्तान के हजारों सपूतों ने जान दिए आज उन सपूतों के बलिदान को भुलाते हुए कुछ नासमझ लोग कश्मीर/हिंदुस्तान और हिंदुस्तान के संविधान के खिलाफ पोस्टर दिखा रहे।
यह देश है तभी सब आज़ाद हैं..नहीं तो सब गुलाम।

And lastly, Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani is in no mood to excuse the US for killing General Soleimani.
General Soleimani fought heroically against ISIS, Al Nusrah, Al Qaeda et al. If it weren’t for his war on terror, European capitals would be in great danger now.
Our final answer to his assassination will be to kick all US forces out of the region.
