    Disenchantment does not fully explain the disruptive assembly poll results yesterday. There was also a strange enchantment. Unseen, unexpected, unacknowledged. My column: #ElectionResults2026 #TN2026 #BengalResults #TMCvsBJP #ActorVijay #LDFDefeat

    #AAP goes down censorship route. Photojournalists from @NewIndianXpress / @TheMornStandard disallowed from Kejriwal-Bhagwat Mann presser. Why throw out photogs, @ArvindKejriwal @BhagwantMann @AAPDelhi ? Is the extra hospitality bcoz of our Liquorgate and Hawalagate reports?

    Excellent @BDUTT ! It's the much vilified 'liberals' who signed the petition for his release!! Not the likes of that "alleged filmmaker" and the obnoxious troll army!

    Most appraisals will read #sitaramyechuri in terms of his trajectory as a Communist frontman. Few realise what a talent India has been deprived of—in universalist terms. The loss is India’s as much as the Left’s. My tribute:

    Before @NewIndianXpress broke the first story in any media that all is not well with the #DelhiExcisePolicy, there were a few things to take care of. Though @Shahid_Faridi_ had worked on the story for over three weeks, a response from #AAP was critical... bit.ly/3ChIy3G

    Deepest condolences to both of you @BDUTT @bahardutt ... the dignity with which you've grieved for your father and went on reporting the darkest story of our times, is widely appreciated (ignore the blige, not worth an attntion)

    No answer yet on why @NewIndianXpress @TheMornStandard and @ThePrintIndia photographers were made to stay out of the #AAP presser. @ArvindKejriwal @BhagwantMann @ShekharGupta

    The same treatment was meted out to the photographer from a prominent news website. For reasons best known to #AAP @PraveenJain2622

    Yes, so true and so appropriately gooey and campy...we laughed, cried, got angry and got entertained, won and lost, dreamt big and small, and, most importantly, stayed vulnerable with @iamsrk. So yes, @MehboobaMufti it's not just one name, he's finally an Indian parent. He's us.
