Make Twitter comply with Indian laws. If they don't, fine them, again, per Indian laws. Take whatever legal proceeedings are spelt out in the law. Also, have some govt official put out a bland statement listing out the key provisions of the law, and put this on Twitter itself. Lastly, have top govt handles start tweeting on other platforms (like Koo?) with the stated reason that compliant platforms will be leveraged for public communications. Twitter tweets would continue, but at a lower frequency. The point is to hurt Twitter's bottomline, not our lines of communications. Suraj-san had a nice post about how to impose costs on them - would be a good template to follow.
Basically, let them deal with the govt red tape and our legal system, and pay a hefty financial cost. Yes, they will bring in a battery of high priced lawyers, rags like NYT and WaPo through their house-servants will hyperventilate about freedom and justice, but as long as the govt goes by the book and builds their case solely per Indian law, Twitter (and these self-appointed arbiters of freedom and justice) won't be able to do much except comply.
If, after all the above, Twitter chooses to pull out of India, so be it. Make it clear that they chose to pull out because they didn't want to comply with Indian law, and nonchalantly move on to other desi platforms. But we should not ban them.

Chiang fatally hesitated in cracking down and erasing the Reds atleast in his southern china zone for fear of igniting a civil war while war 0.5 front with japan was still on which to him was the bigger issue of unifying and saving the country. 8/n
knowing this weakness, Mao ji mercilessly used it on all fronts incl slowly increasing the CCP attacks on nationalist army while pinning the blame always on Chiang with western and russian envoys making it clear Chiang was out of step and guilty 9/n
Stalin's envoy in chongqing was Gen vasily chuikov (!) later to gain fame in stalingrad and taking down the chanchery in berlin the final battle of berlin front. 10/n

Now 2004 are 18yrs which coincidentally cutoff date for vaccine.
So the more than important question is what is the basis for 18? Is it scientific or add hoc like 3 mtr or 15 mins rule of covid?
But to your larger point:
Punjab reached out drug manufacturer who refused deal with state govs. Also there is the issue of indemnity by the central gov. So far my understanding of the playbook is
1. Need deeper pockets/reach of the federal/central government
2. Central gov should procure it (preferably for free) and provide gazillion doses magically ( like kujliwals daily media demand )
3. Once state is given the doses - no role for central government.
In other words our central gov is just an ATM and a punching bag for the state. I am not sure barring legislative action if the central government can do anything. Even if legislation is done , street drama and his hizzoners will then "protect democracy" for the next n years. Random events will lead to random demands like closure of pmcares fund or Farmer agitation will include demands for CAA rollback etc. Maybe constitutional experts can weigh in...

Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Some invalid comparisons. BJP is not the establishment nor dominant party in India. It is just a growing party and thus, it does not have the luxury to give up on its non-voters or certain sectors of society. Rather, reforms is the key. And evidently, it works as today probably 50% are those who voted for Congress in past, and now converted to BJP.
This reforms has to continue. Triple Talaq, direct subsidies are such moves and hopefully, more people change preferences towards BJP.
Hindu issues should be resolved, but there cant be a deadline like 2024. Its silly, childish and entitled.

Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
I cant find state vs centre responsibility matrix defined - still looking. I did look at Article 256, 257 for state vs central gov. Aside from exceptions related to national security and railways central government does not seem to have defined powers - for everyone wanting Namo to do x or y or z. I am happy to be wrong and educated as law is not my area of expertise. Specifically I am looking for "execution responsibility" for the state, overseeing/intervening powers by the central on areas outside of national security / railways / inter state commerce.
For example : Looks like central government allowed increased borrowing by states on May 2020 with some caveats in response to the pandemic. I have not seen a single CM comment on it let alone criticize it.
Here is a BIF fellow saying: "Central government does not have the power to implement lockdown ( wave 1 ). " Needless to say the folks if his ilk are happy to blame Namo for "not locking down " for the second wave.

The Constitution of India makes healthcare the responsibility of the state governments, rather than the Central government. As a result, the states are responsible for raising nutrition levels and standard of living of the people besides improving public health among its primary duties.

In broader terms, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has a strategy. He sees that INC under the Gandhis is a lost cause. He recognizes that its entire ecosystem of foreign supporters (the Catholic Church, various Evangelical Christian organizations, and the intelligence & foreign-policy apparatus of certain Western countries) are about to give up on Sonia and Rahul Gandhi as the political vanguard of soul-harvesting Christendom in India.
So he is setting himself up as the successor. He wants to be the one availing of funds from the Vatican, the Southern Baptists, and the US State Department. These foreign entities are the last shreds of legitimacy keeping the Maino Congress together as a viable political entity in 2021. What YSJMR wants to demonstrate is that not only can he advance the soul-harvesting cause by leaps and bounds compared to the Mainos-- but he can actually win elections and wield brutal state power against Hindu resistance, be it from his party's MPs or from the Thirumala Tirupati Devasthanams. He believes this will convince INC's foreign puppeteers-- the only legs it continues to stand on-- to withdraw their Maino-family centric support and insist on his ascendance to the party leadership. Being from AP, he is also well-positioned to serve their Breaking-India agenda by championing a "United States of South India" soft-separatist course against Modi Sarkar.
Let's remember YSJMR's father nursed similar ambitions. In 2009, they may have been premature-- the Mainos had a stranglehold over the nation and YSR was disposed of in a "helicopter crash". Now the Mainos have no such power, and YSJMR is jockeying to finish what his father started with respect to the INC.
That's how I see this, anyway.

The chargesheet against him tries to obscure the true reason for this brutal, targeted reprisal by presenting a whole muddle of accusations. But let's take a closer look at what K Raju ji actually said:Two days ago, Supreme Court of India granted bail to rebel YSR Congress Party leader K Raghu Rama Krishna Raju in a sedition case. He is a member of Lok Sabha representing the Narasapuram constituency.
Raju was arrested by the Andhra Pradesh CID on 14 May on the charge of sedition after he filed a petition in the Special Court for CBI cases in Hyderabad seeking cancellation of bail granted to Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister (CM) Jagan Mohan Reddy in a quid pro case on the grounds of violation of bail conditions.
The rebel YSRCP leader had made many allegations including that of corruption, mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic, etc. against the state government.
Raju had alleged that he was tortured in the police custody. Further, in his petition before the Supreme Court, he said that the state government had asked the DIG, CID, Amaravathi, to conduct an inquiry into his “actions in addressing the print and electronic media accusing failure of the chief minister and his government in dealing with COVID-related issues”.
Following his arrest, the statement from the CID reportedly said:
“MP from Narasapur Raghu Rama Krishna Raju has been arrested at his residence at Hyderabad. There was information against Raju, stating that he has been indulging in hate speeches against certain communities and promoting disaffection against the government.”
“A preliminary enquiry has been ordered by ADG CID PV Sunil Kumar IPS. It was found that through his speeches Raju was indulging in a systematic, schematic effort to cause tensions among the communities and by attacking various government dignitaries in a way which will cause loss of faith in the government which they represent. There is hate speech against communities and social groups also, which was used to foment social and public order disturbances in conspiracy with a few media channels,” it further read.
On the orders of the CID ADG, a case was registered against the MP under Sections 124A (sedition), 153A (promoting enmity between different groups), 505 (statements conducing public mischief) read with 120B (conspiracy) of the Indian Penal Code.
...
The Narasapuram Lok Sabha MP was medically examined and whole procedure video-graphed at the Army Hospital at Secunderabad, Telangana at the intervention of the Supreme Court. The report found a fracture in the toe area of the left foot and other injuries.
The court stated that the report of his medical examination indicated that he may possibly have been ill-treated in custody, and granted him bail.
Get the picture? This is a country where Hindu Sadhus are lynched by Christians in Palghar with absolutely no legal ramifications; where a Hindu sant (Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati) is murdered by Christian-funded Maoists in Orissa, and Hindus alone are blamed for the communal violence that follows; and meanwhile, anyone drawing attention to the collusion of certain political parties in the systematic extermination of Hinduism gets arrested and tortured. As did Sadhvi Pragya, Lt. Col. Purohit, Swami Aseemanand, and now MP K. Raju.
In October 2020, Raju wrote a letter to PM Modi, alleging that the Andhra Pradesh government was promoting conversion to Christianity in the state in violation of the Indian Constitution.
He said that the Christian population had increased from 1.8 per cent in 2011 to 25 per cent through conversion. He said that there were about 33,000 churches in the state, equivalent to Hindu temples. However, the demographic change was not officially entering the government records.
He alleged that those who converted had entered the legislatures and other lucrative government jobs with fake caste certificates to take advantage of reservations. He urged that these mistakes be rectified in the 2021 census and measures be taken to make reservations available only to those who are eligible.
In broader terms, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has a strategy. He sees that INC under the Gandhis is a lost cause. He recognizes that its entire ecosystem of foreign supporters (the Catholic Church, various Evangelical Christian organizations, and the intelligence & foreign-policy apparatus of certain Western countries) are about to give up on Sonia and Rahul Gandhi as the political vanguard of soul-harvesting Christendom in India.

Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
I am disappointed with some of the BRF readership. There is far too much gloom and doom. Certain members of course are well known purveyors of dismay and foreboding. But too many people have become despondent.
Granted, the situation has looked grim for Dharmics after the WB loss and the devastation caused by the second wave. But is it all Modi's fault? Are we, his supporters so fickle that we cannot stand by him in his darkest hour when he is giving it his all? This is not the time to be defeatist, but to be strong and rally together. Keep the morale up and keep the flag flying high. There are worse times to come.
For a long time I have been looking for a summary or list of accomplishments of this government. The original thread is too long and complicated. I finally found it in a forward from a friend. Don't know who wrote it and how true everything is, but I am a believer.
Mods, sorry for the long post, please delete or move to another thread as needed. In these difficult times it is worth remembering what this man has done for us. Many of these numbers would look even better if updated to 2021.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My friend who is Anti Modi, asked me to give 1 reason to Vote for Modi.
I gave him 200.
Here are 200 reasons to vote for Modi:
1. Fragile five to Fastest growing economy - India
2. 11th largest to 5th largest economy - India
3. Share of world GDP from 2.43% in 2014 to 3.08% in 2018
4. Average GDP 7.3% against 6.7% in previous regime

2024
Granted, the situation has looked grim for Dharmics after the WB loss and the devastation caused by the second wave. But is it all Modi's fault? Are we, his supporters so fickle that we cannot stand by him in his darkest hour when he is giving it his all? This is not the time to be defeatist, but to be strong and rally together. Keep the morale up and keep the flag flying high. There are worse times to come.
For a long time I have been looking for a summary or list of accomplishments of this government. The original thread is too long and complicated. I finally found it in a forward from a friend. Don't know who wrote it and how true everything is, but I am a believer.
Mods, sorry for the long post, please delete or move to another thread as needed. In these difficult times it is worth remembering what this man has done for us. Many of these numbers would look even better if updated to 2021.

It needs to be updated though..much of that information is until 2018. Ex : While as a % of world's GDP we have increased slightly from the number quoted above but when it comes to our nominal GDP we have dropped below UK again thanks to the pandemic. Same with AIIMS, there are 14 now either under construction or operational.

Granted, the situation has looked grim for Dharmics after the WB loss and the devastation caused by the second wave. But is it all Modi's fault? Are we, his supporters so fickle that we cannot stand by him in his darkest hour when he is giving it his all? This is not the time to be defeatist, but to be strong and rally together. Keep the morale up and keep the flag flying high. There are worse times to come.
For a long time I have been looking for a summary or list of accomplishments of this government. The original thread is too long and complicated. I finally found it in a forward from a friend. Don't know who wrote it and how true everything is, but I am a believer.
Mods, sorry for the long post, please delete or move to another thread as needed. In these difficult times it is worth remembering what this man has done for us. Many of these numbers would look even better if updated to 2021.

If some one stills insists on only 1 reason to vote Modi, then it should be Swatch Bharat Mission.35. Swachh bharat mission has saved, according to WHO, 3 lakh lives and will save 1.5 lakh lives per year.
Technically it gave dignity to millions of people by providing them with a flush.
That flush also flushed away Congress, SP, BSP, TMC, NCP, SS, CPIM and other assorted political matter as seen in tally improvement from 282 to 303.

Homegrown Twitter-Rival Koo Raises $30 Million In Series B Funding, Aims To Garner 10 Crore Users By Year End
Homegrown micro-blogging platform Koo on Wednesday (26 May) said it has raised $30 million in Series B funding, led by Tiger Global.
Koo has garnered nearly 60 lakh downloads in just a year of operations.
"We have aggressive plans to grow into one of the world's largest social media platforms in the next few years. Every Indian is cheering for us to get there soon. Tiger Global is the right partner to have on board to realise this dream," said Aprameya Radhakrishna, Co-Founder and CEO of Koo.
Koo's existing investors Accel Partners, Kalaari Capital, Blume Ventures and Dream Incubator also participating in the round.
IIFL and Mirae Assets are other new investors who have come on board the cap table with this round, the company informed.
Koo last week said it has met the compliance requirements of the new IT (Intermediary Guidelines) Rules 2021 ahead of its 25 May deadline set by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY).
Koo said earlier this month announced to launch a unique feature that will help users speak and type messages without using the keyboard in regional languages, apart from English.
Called 'Talk to Type,' the feature will help Koo users speak out their thoughts and the words will show up on the screen at the click of a button.
Founded last year, the vernacular micro-blogging platform Koo crossed 60 lakh users within no time and aims to garner 10 crore users by the end of this year.
Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
While I am happy home grown app Koo has garnered another round of funding, what if some foreign/domestic individual/company buys out a majority stake and turns Koo into another Twitter? Then what? Koo will be full of left liberals, Marxists/Communists, seculars. We Dharmics will be again rendered homeless/voiceless. No?

This is what jack on crack did when he saw the big hairy b@!!$ of tiny singapore.
Despite all his christofacist bravado, he cravenly caved.
singapore made him back down publicly.
Despite being part of Commonwealth, tiny Singapore does not have a colonial judiciary
The GoI has every right to protect the nation's sovereignty as they see fit.
See how tiny singapore acted swiftly and how jack on crack had to run a correction and retraction.
If jack on crack has the audacity to ignore Indian laws, then nothing that GoI does can be considered extreme in the enforcement of such laws.
India did not become independent in 1947, just to see a bunch of big tech woke social media punks operating out of commie beijingbiden's USA trying to digitally invade India and colonize us all over again.
Our data, national identity, FoE, the newly dusted off Indian exceptionalism and our national digital sovereignty is at stake all over again and this time to the v2.0 of the erstwhile soulless, racist and malevolently exploitative east India company from the land of the successor to the britshit empire.

Xposted from the social media thread.
congis, commies and lootyens presstitutes, including BIF controlled FFNGOs are bound to be affected by any ruling that the court may give on this matter
whatsapp moves the Delhi High Court against the Indian Govt challenging the recently imposed India IT Rules. Claims New IT Laws will Hamper whatsapp privacy Laws. Interestingly, it further claims that user privacy is in its DNA and the company will not share the information related to the "first originator of information" with any government including India.
meanwhile, a russian court has fined both facebook and google for failing to take down 'illegal Content' in spite of warning by Moscow.
and again, no ameriki big tech media or politico including beijingbiden seem to have the goolies to question the cheeni who have banned twitter, facebook and google
let us see how the various pillars of "our" democracy react to the new east India company foreigners' on going digital invasion of India and the crass attempts at subjugation of the Indian populace by imposing their narrative led agenda, supporting the corrupting commie, naxal and woke value system and, their gross and entirely unwarranted interference in India's internal affairs by private, unelected, and BIF led foreign entities who precipitated brexit and de-platformed trump, influenced the ameriki elections to get bejingbiden and comma la heiress by wilfully suppressing evidence of beijingbiden's family and their corrupt dalliances with the cheeni political ecosystem
and finally, WTH does a christofascist like jack on crack think, that he, as an entitled and woke commie ameriki, has the god given right to override the democratically elected govt of a sovereign state like India. Are we being viewed as some pliable banana republic by these big tech social media crooks who think that they can push countries around in their crass pursuit of profits and be allowed to shape favorable national policies in India to benefit themselves by constructing and controlling the narrative.
Are they the new age commercial assassins and economic hitmen who may soon be emboldened enough to operate in the hallowed space of national security, if not stopped in their tracks.
Social media plays an important part in spreading hysteria and congi, naxal and woke leftist propoganda.

WhatsApp sues Indian govt, says new media rules mean end to privacy
congis, commies and lootyens presstitutes, including BIF controlled FFNGOs are bound to be affected by any ruling that the court may give on this matter
whatsapp moves the Delhi High Court against the Indian Govt challenging the recently imposed India IT Rules. Claims New IT Laws will Hamper whatsapp privacy Laws. Interestingly, it further claims that user privacy is in its DNA and the company will not share the information related to the "first originator of information" with any government including India.
meanwhile, a russian court has fined both facebook and google for failing to take down 'illegal Content' in spite of warning by Moscow.
and again, no ameriki big tech media or politico including beijingbiden seem to have the goolies to question the cheeni who have banned twitter, facebook and google
let us see how the various pillars of "our" democracy react to the new east India company foreigners' on going digital invasion of India and the crass attempts at subjugation of the Indian populace by imposing their narrative led agenda, supporting the corrupting commie, naxal and woke value system and, their gross and entirely unwarranted interference in India's internal affairs by private, unelected, and BIF led foreign entities who precipitated brexit and de-platformed trump, influenced the ameriki elections to get bejingbiden and comma la heiress by wilfully suppressing evidence of beijingbiden's family and their corrupt dalliances with the cheeni political ecosystem
and finally, WTH does a christofascist like jack on crack think, that he, as an entitled and woke commie ameriki, has the god given right to override the democratically elected govt of a sovereign state like India. Are we being viewed as some pliable banana republic by these big tech social media crooks who think that they can push countries around in their crass pursuit of profits and be allowed to shape favorable national policies in India to benefit themselves by constructing and controlling the narrative.
Are they the new age commercial assassins and economic hitmen who may soon be emboldened enough to operate in the hallowed space of national security, if not stopped in their tracks.
Social media plays an important part in spreading hysteria and congi, naxal and woke leftist propoganda.

WhatsApp sues Indian govt, says new media rules mean end to privacy

WhatsApp sues Indian govt, says new media rules mean end to privacy
Lawsuit escalates a growing struggle between the government and tech giants in one of their key global growth markets
WhatsApp has filed a legal complaint in Delhi against the Indian government seeking to block regulations coming into force on Wednesday that experts say would compel the California-based Facebook unit to break privacy protections, sources said.
The lawsuit, described to Reuters by people familiar with it, asks the Delhi High Court to declare that one of the new rules is a violation of privacy rights in India's constitution since it requires social media companies to identify the "first originator of information" when authorities demand it.
While the law requires WhatsApp to unmask only people credibly accused of wrongdoing, the company says it cannot do that alone in practice. Because messages are end-to-end encrypted, to comply with the law WhatsApp says it would have break encryption for receivers, as well as "originators", of messages.
Reuters could not independently confirm the complaint had been filed in court by WhatsApp, which has nearly 400 million users in India, nor when it might be reviewed by the court. The people with knowledge of the matter declined to be identified because of the sensitivity of the issue.
A WhatsApp spokesman declined to comment.

The lawsuit escalates a growing struggle between Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government and tech giants including Facebook, Google parent Alphabet and Twitter in one of their key global growth markets.
Tensions grew after a police visit to Twitter's offices earlier this week. The micro-blogging service had labelled posts by a spokesman for the dominant party and others as containing "manipulated media", saying forged content was included.
The government has also pressed the tech companies to remove not only what it has described as misinformation on the COVID-19 pandemic ravaging India, but also some criticism of the government's response to the crisis, which is claiming thousands of lives daily.
The response of the companies to the new rules has been a subject of intense speculation since they were unveiled in February, 90 days before they were slated to go into effect.
The Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code, promulgated by the ministry of information technology, designates "significant social media intermediaries" as standing to lose protection from lawsuits and criminal prosecution if they fail to adhere to the code.
WhatsApp, its parent Facebook and tech rivals have all invested heavily in India. But company officials worry privately that increasingly heavy-handed regulation by the Modi government could jeopardize those prospects.
Among the new rules are requirements that big social media firms appoint Indian citizens to key compliance roles, remove content within 36 hours of a legal order, and set up a mechanism to respond to complaints. They must also use automated processes to take down *****.
Facebook has said that it agrees with most of the provisions but is still looking to negotiate some aspects. Twitter, which has come under the most fire for failing to take down posts by government critics, declined to comment.
Some in the industry are hoping for a delay in the introduction of the new rules while such objections are heard. The WhatsApp complaint cites a 2017 Indian Supreme Court ruling supporting privacy in a case known as Puttaswamy, the people familiar with it said.
The court found then that privacy must be preserved except in cases where legality, necessity and proportionality all weighed against it. WhatsApp argues that the law fails all three of those tests, starting with the lack of explicit parliamentary backing.
Experts have backed WhatsApp's arguments. "The new traceability and filtering requirements may put an end to end-to-end encryption in India," Stanford Internet Observatory scholar Riana Pfefferkorn wrote in March.
Other court challenges to the new rules are already pending in Delhi and elsewhere. In one, journalists argue that the extension of technology regulations to digital publishers, including the imposition of decency and taste standards, is unsupported by the underlying law.

and here, concerned amerikis are fighting back and also protecting themselves against big tech, woke private media companies with an agenda which wilfully interfered in the last presidential elections to de-platform the POTUS and help the commies to win thinking that they would be allowed to rule the social media untouched and unregulated.

No wonder this union minister is not capable of thinking outside the box and ever do anything about rampant issues in the medical industry. Hiding behind the garb of medical workers.
IMA continues to bully Baba Ramdev, now sues him for Rs 1,000 crore over his statements on Allopathic medicine

It may be noted that Baba Ramdev has already withdrawn his statement on the request of union health minister Harsh Vardhan. The minister had written to the Yoga guru saying that his statement on allopathic medicines was “extremely unfortunate”, and had asked him to withdraw the remark, saying it disrespects ‘corona warriors’ and can break the morale of healthcare workers.

Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
The govt should support Baba Ramdev over Harshvardhan or the IMA since Baba got more votes than them combined. Actually Baba should setup a fund to help poor people sue hospitals who overcharge and committ medical negligence and then take the cost out of the settlement. The BJP does self goals example being turmeric board in telangana. It does not cost anything since they already have a regional spices board office. Just hang a board in that office.

Stellar job being done by Shivraj singh chauhan for vaccination in MP. There is no paid or free vaccines, all are free and the private hospitals will get reimbursed by the govt. They cannot charge the people. There are lot of slots for 18+ also. No corruption or confusion.
Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
What's the IMA position on the chinese virus? Has IMA openly attributed the virus to china and refers to as a problem created by the chinese that Indian healthcare workers have to deal with?
Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
As we all know that BJP always fails to highlight stellar jobs. No one stopped BJP from having a daily call outs in public about who's doing what according to various metrics and simple graphics for public to understand and remember. Majority of voters need to see graphics that they remember and understand in local languages or at least verbally in Hindi.kvraghav wrote:Stellar job being done by Shivraj singh chauhan for vaccination in MP.

Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
How many Indians really have an independent political thinking? Many have outsourced it to their community leaders, their favorite celebs or their spouses. A list of achievements or stats comparison, doesn't cut with people.
And many vote for "one of their own", or people who can help them in "crisis". It's about security, vulnerability not necessarily about development. A reason why caste politics is strong, or why son/daughter of state narratives works. Be it MB, Nitesh or Naveen. Even BJP plays this, by the nationalist agenda. Now, many people thought Modi as one of their own, a leader who can help in crisis. But this Covid raises questions and extremely challenging time.
