New Delhi: Guess who is complaining about ‘Harassment’ with a capital H? US President Donald Trump while referring to the investigation into Robert Mueller’s report on Russia’s interference in the 2016 US elections.
PRESIDENTIAL HARASSMENT!

Actor-turned politician Shatrughan Sinha gave his “polite but firm” diagnosis of the state of affairs in West Bengal and took a pot shot at his former party’s past history on law and order. Hint hint: Gujarat 2002. Wonder what the then chief minister of Gujarat and current PM thinks of Sinha’s remarks?
A polite but firm suggestion that the state of Bengal doesn’t require / need President Rule(PR).There have been several states in the past,in worse conditions (even our own Gujarat 2002 onwards) where it wasn’t imposed. Bengal needs peace, prosperity, progress and harmony,

BJP Rajya Sabha MP Rakesh Sinha ranted against West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, calling her out for alleged lack of welfare initiatives for women and children. He also called her a 20th century fascist, except we’re in the 21st century, sir…..
.@MamataOfficial बीसवीं शताब्दी की फासिस्ट है ।
— Prof Rakesh Sinha (@RakeshSinha01) June 11, 2019
In translation: @MamataOfficial is the twentieth century fascist.
A journalist in western Uttar Pradesh was beaten and locked up by a group of policemen, who also allegedly urinated in his mouth – all because he was reporting about a train derailment. Radio silence so far from I&B Minister Prakash Javadekar and UP CM Yogi Adityanath.
We have come across a video where a journalist has been beaten up & put up in a lock up. DGP UP OP Singh has ordered for immediate suspension of SHO GRP Shamli Rakesh Kumar & Const. Sanjay Pawar.
Strict punishment shall be accorded to policemen misbehaving with citizens.

First, Rahul Gandhi calls for the release of arrested journalists in UP, then sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra calls out the UP government for keeping people fearful. Looks like Priyanka is always close at hand to back her brother
जनता के मुद्दों पर काम करने की बजाय, उत्तर प्रदेश सरकार पत्रकारों, किसानों, प्रतिनिधियों पर डर का डंडा चला रही है। https://t.co/gm50MlivjG

In translation: Rather than working on public issues, the Uttar Pradesh gvernment is running a scare on journalists, farmers and representatives.
Union Minister of Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries Giriraj Singh is milking his job — cattle development is his main focus. Gau Maata above everything else, minister?
Today we had a review meeting on cattle development and Progress. Multiple issues related to cattle was discussed.

Former Union Minister Yashwant Sinha is pained at the troll culture on Twitter and asked if he should stay or leave the social media site. If you leave, the trolls win and if you stay, they will troll you, sir. So either way you lose?
दो बार मैंने किसी के मरने पर शोक संदेश ट्वीट किया था। इस पर भी ट्रॉल्स ने मुझे गाली ही नही दी बल्कि यह भी कामना की की मैं भी मर जाऊ।
क्या मैं ट्विटर पर बना रहूँ या छोड़ दूं? क्या यह हम जैसे लोगों के लिए नही है? केवल गाली देने वालो के लिए है।

In translation: I had twice tweeted a condolence message on someone’s death. Trolls did not abuse me on this, but instead wished that I too would die. Can I stay on Twitter or leave it? Is twitter not for people like us? It is only for abusers.
Union Minister for Minority Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi is in favour of madrasas being connected to mainstream and formal education. Very laudable goal, now we await the actual plan.

After recent reports that Democrat and presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders was not pro-choice on abortion rights in his younger days, he’s now going that extra mile to prove otherwise, with this tweet.
Today is a great day for Vermont, which is taking serious action to counter the wave of extremist attacks on abortion rights. We will keep fighting in every state to defend a woman's right to choose. https://t.co/slltUExE9M

This trend will continue till June 21 and we would encourage you to enjoy it while it lasts. Children might like to quit watching cartoons and watch an older Bal Narendra.
Have you ever practiced Vakrasana? Its advantages are numerous and long lasting.
