New Delhi: Twitter talks of leaders’ hairstyles, leaders’ children and old fashioned politics….
Former BJP leader Yashwant Sinha discussed his lock-down woes and made fun of Congress leader Jairam Ramesh—find out why.
If lockdown continues and barber shops remain closed all of us will be forced to sport the hair style of Jairam Ramesh.

But some people were not amused.
Some wretched bhakts can't even understand a good natured joke. Jairam Ramesh is a friend and I know he will not take offence.

More seriously, North Korean human rights activist Yeonmi Park makes allegations about the Supreme Leader’s whereabouts. Better watch it, Ms Park.
The most cowardly and selfish dictator Kim Jong Un is not dead or even sick according to my source. He is hiding out in a fear of getting a Corona virus. Despite lying to the world that there is a zero case of Corona virus, it has been spreading uncontrollably within North Korea pic.twitter.com/8OBP6KolNA

BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra is most concerned at the length of Arnab Goswami’s questioning by the Mumbai Police.
इतनी पूछताछ अगर पालघर वाले मामले में की होती तो अभी तक संतो के निर्मम हत्या के पीछे की साज़िश उजागर हो जाती। https://t.co/nc8wZY9KRI

Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav finds that the ‘Agra model’ may not be a model to follow, after all..
मुख्यमंत्री द्वारा बहुप्रचारित कोरोना से लड़ने का 'आगरा मॉडल’ मेयर के अनुसार फ़ेल होकर आगरा को वुहान बना देगा. न जाँच, न दवाई, न अन्य बीमारियों के लिए सरकारी या प्राइवेट अस्पताल, न जीवन रक्षक किट और उस पर क्वॉरेंटाइन सेंटर्स की बदहाली प्राणांतक साबित हो रही है.
जागो सरकार जागो!

To make you smile, watch the gentle giant’s deft footwork.
When an animal of 4000kgs walks past the front yard of a house in Munnar, Kerala, the inmates did the best thing. Not to shout.
And it has a 5 kg brain. Intelligent enough to avoid stepping on the vehicle to damage it.
That’s why we call it a GENTLE GIANT? pic.twitter.com/l1YRME04cj

And one irate citizen lambasts the government over taxes!
I pay my TAXES. Why should I do charity? Let govt execute its responsibilities.
Govt collect taxes n donations and expects us to do charity on top of that. What govt does with our money? Statue of Unity? Bullet Train? Shivaji Statue? Ram Statue? Ram Mandir? Central Vista? Rafale
