“And just like that our 18-year-long fight for justice has been reduced to nothing” — sat down for an interview with #BilkisBano 's husband. "It's been a week and Bilkis is still in shock. She isn't speaking. She is heartbroken" he says. @TheQuint

'Rapists Being Celebrated Like They Are Heroes’: Husband of Bilkis Bano

Watching rapists & murderers being celebrated is not an insult to Bilkis alone. It is an insult to all women.

1. #RahulGandhi makes a suggestion. 2. Cabinet rank ministers call him a lobbyist. 3. IT cell trolls him. 4. Then they quietly implement his suggestion. Now this lovely human here wants us to appreciate the government and think of Rahul as a fool.

“I am not able to come to terms with reality, even after 24 hours of release. I only looked at walls for 7 years. Perhaps, the entire world knew that the case was fabricated, even 10 years ago. But, there was no relief...” — GN Saibaba at a press conference in Delhi.

To put things into perspective, in 2008 his family sold a plot of land to fight his case for Rs 6L. That plot today costs Rs 6cr. He earned close to 65K p/m in 2006, today, 11 years after being released, he still hasn't reached that mark, let alone making anything more...(5/n)

This is a bad idea. Both my grandparents were pre-partition kids and tho, they never said this in as many words, it took them forever to forget the horrors of August 1947. But they always kept trying. How? By telling us stories of their lives in undivided India. (1/2)

Fact checking is not an easy job by any stretch. Until a few years ago, every journalist was supposed to be a "fact-checker" but in a post-truth world, we should reward people like #Zubair for existing and not hound them. #IStandWithZubair

In September last year, Mevani extended support to the Congress. If this vicious and blatant targeting, a few months before elections, doesn't mobilise their cadre on ground, I don't know what will.

The baseless controversy over names of the terrorists can be put to rest by referring to old MEA press releases. And it’s not like @MIB_India doesn’t know that. This summon is less about IC814 and more about deterring streaming platforms from taking up such projects.
