@vidyut Folks, I have ordered some.We all need to do this for two reasons. 1. Solidarity with our people in #Kashmir2. Vidyut has been doing yeoman work in activism for some years now. She takes time out from her family & child to do this. She depends on her creativity & perseverance in soap making & saplings to earn her living. She deserves all the support we can give her & more.Proud of you V

@bharatvarma @subirwa As distasteful as it is, we are missing some key points here.1. The law of the land allows prosecution for such hate speech.2. Under the Army Act & CrPC, there is no law which can withdraw medals & pension for an offence done as a retired person. 3. While our outrage is on SM, the fascists are merrily forwarding it across their much better organised channels across the country.Now. Tell me our course of action. @KavitaKrishnan @omairahmad

@bharatvarma @subirwa @KavitaKrishnan @omairahmad By that yardstick, some of us would have our pensions permanently withheld, under the present dispensation.Especially, all 422 of us who wrote to the President complaining about Politicisation of the Armed Forces.

@bharatvarma @subirwa @KavitaKrishnan @omairahmad Why generalise, Bharat Ji?There are good & bad elements in all segments of our society.It does more harm than good when you straitjacket entire professions/communities etc.Can we focus on the positives & move ahead?It will actually help us a lot.

@omairahmad @bharatvarma @subirwa @KavitaKrishnan Oh! He is being called out alright. The veterans are going after him hammer & tongs. An example ЁЯСЗhttps://twitter.com/sundeepparija/status/1196003349482524672?s=09But. I still maintain that this isn't a spur of the moment incident. To my mind, it is a planned thing by the scum.

@KnottedBow I need to unlearn some.I need to learn how?To say ' Hello'.I need to learn how to start a conversation.I am sanguine that once I learn how to start a conversation, I will never forget the first 'Hello'.

1/n 'The NPR will be a list of usual residents of the country. Once the NPR is completed and published, it is expected to be the basis for preparing the National Register of Indian Citizens (NRIC), a pan-India version of Assam's NRC. All those who are saying will not allow NRC but are not saying a word against NPR after the passage of CAB are either uninformed/ illinformed or bluffing people again. https://www.indiatoday.in/amp/india/story/government-npr-foundation-pan-india-nrc-1576860-2019-08-03

2/nBeware if they are bluffing and are not just illinformed or uninformed. They understand RSS guided Shah's plan (and conspicuous silence on NPR) and playing along with it. Infact some of them.had supported Vajpayee (the 'right' man in wrong party) led NDA's Citizenship Amendment Act, 2003 passed in 2004. If we do not boycott NPR 2020 there will not be much to boycott in NRC. They will already have all the personal data they need and with a consent from usual residents of India

3/nfor using it for administrative purpose. 2010 NPR is not only outdated but it was collected in a manner to avoid centralization and identification except at local level, which also should not have been done. Clubbing it with Census and using Census enumerators to collect information for NPR is not only done to bypass Census confidentiality clause.of Census Act, 1948 but also deceitful.

4/nIt was done by UPA for Aadhar to appease corporates not fascists but that doesn't make it right. It can be corrected even.now. This time data for NPR will be collected using digital App so it is easy to centralise and use it for identification. What is the need for NPR when we already have Census? NPR's main purpose is to move towards NRC and establishing citizenship. It makes the task of NRC easy as it is going to be done with Census enumerators and along with population census.

5/nMaybe they are bringing Personal data protection bill to make NPR immune to recent Privacy ruling by SC. Let us start preparing ourselves for boycotting NPR.Please also remember the role Population Register or Special Census played in genocide at Rawanda, Nazi Germany, Netherlands. Also why in U.S., recently in 2019 Courts prohibited collection citizenship related (which Trump administration wanted to) data by U.S. Census if 2020.

n/nAlso why there are so many safeguards against misuse of Census information in France. If NPR has nothing to do with NRC then why "it is being done In pursuance of sub-rule(4) of rule 3 of the Citizenship (Registration of Citizens and Issue of National Identity Cards) Rules, 2003"
