New Delhi: Something old, something new: the Shaheen Bagh protest is joined by the Supreme Court’s ruling on the Citizenship Amendment Act and Shahrukh Khan’s quick Q&A session on Twitter’s fav list.
Former chief minister of Jammu & Kashmir and PDP leader Mehbooba Mufti might be under detention but she is not pulling any political punches.
After being manhandled & illegally detained in Kashmir, I am now being harassed by SSG which reports to MHA. My right to freedom cant be curtailed under guise of ‘security & safety’. Given that a top cop was caught red handed with militants, Im certainly safer without them

Actor Naseeruddin Shah’s unkind comment about fellow actor Anupam Kher’s sycophancy has led to plenty of hal chal on Twitter! Here, Congress leader Salman Soz takes on ‘Governor Swaraj’ the late BJP leader Sushma Swaraj’s husband.
https://twitter.com/governorswaraj/status/1220052465535483904
"Anupam (Kher) is an honest, upright and a self made man" whereas "This country gave you (Naseeruddin Shah) all the name, fame, and money". "You married outside your religion".
The bigotry. the privilege, the idiocy. Sounds like a ministerial aspirant.? https://t.co/Ftes7ef4lB

And the Congress-BJP blame game continues!
Finally, an @INCIndia leader accepts the truth about his leaders, the "Fascist Gandhis".
One small correction Dr @ShashiTharoor. The Tukde Tukde Gang was running the Government till 2014 only.
But, they still continue dividing the Nation from 10 Janpath and 12 Tughlaq Lane. https://t.co/lBh8LefB5p

Shaheen Bagh speaks up for itself most eloquently.

Writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar thanks well-wishers on behalf of Shabana Azmi who was injured in a car accident. Get well soon, Ms Azmi.
Our family would like to thank all the friends and well wishers for their concern and messages for @AzmiShabana. This is to let everyone know that she is recovering well and most probably will be shifted to a normal room tomorrow.

Oh, and King Khan carried out a Q & A on Twitter for an hour yesterday – wonder if he was asked any questions on the CAA-NRC!
Chalo ek #AskSrk ho jaaye. Like only 20 Questions…then I have to go and face myself…and maybe shave too.

What did the Israeli security officers do to make French President Emmanuel Macron so furious that he scolded them in English?
Ouch. #France President Macron yells at #Israel Security, asks them to “respect the rules” , “go outside” as he makes his way into Church of Saint Anne in Jerusalem.
