New Delhi: After Gautam Gambhir, it’s the turn of Harbhajan Singh and Mohammad Shami – Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan’s may have got the better of India on the cricket pitch but on Twitter, they’re formidable opponents.
At UNGA speech, there were indications for India of potential nuclear war. As a prominent sportsperson, Imran Khan’s choice of words 'bloodbath' 'fight to the end' will only increase hatred between the two nations. As a fellow sportsperson I expect him to promote ✌️ peace

Mahatma Gandhi spent his life spreading the message of love, harmony and peace. @ImranKhanPTI from UN podium issued despicable threats and spoke of hatred. Pakistan needs a leader who talks development, jobs & economic growth, not war & harbouring terrorism #india

Actor Richa Chadha is as sharp on Twitter, as she is on screen. This time her target is the RSS.
Ok but please first denounce the RSS member, who murdered a 78 year old, unarmed man as he finished a prayer… it’s impossible to praise both the Mahatma and the man who murdered him, by shooting him in the chest thrice at point blank range. It doesn’t make sense https://t.co/fbHi9d6ujp

ORF fellow Kanchan Gupta punctured a European journalist’s sanctimonious questions on NRC. See how.
Recently an European journalist called me for my comments on #NRC. This is how the convo went:
He: How can #India throw out illegal immigrants?
Me: What if I were an illegal immigrant in your country? What would you do?
He: We'd deport you.
Me: See?
He: Bye. (End of call.)— Kanchan Gupta (@KanchanGupta) October 2, 2019
Democrat Presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders may have suffered a heart problem but he still managed to turn his hospitalization into a political message.
Thanks for all the well wishes. I'm feeling good. I'm fortunate to have good health care and great doctors and nurses helping me to recover.
None of us know when a medical emergency might affect us. And no one should fear going bankrupt if it occurs. Medicare for All!

US Congresswoman Ilhan Omar is less than amused by reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin joked about Russia’s interference in the US 2020 election.
He’s ?? not ?? joking ??
How far will the Senate let this go until it picks up the House’s election security legislation? It’s time to come together to save our democracy. https://t.co/U61x6mgg1k
