Days after the #CoromandelExpress tragedy, I called a friend who’s a powerloom worker from #Odisha in #Surat. He shared a passenger-list, with phone numbers. Relatives of missing folk were using it to find loved ones. I began to call random non-AC passengers. A thread 1/n
Dozens of men in their 20s and 30s from #WestBengal on the #CoromandelExpress were to take connecting trains to #Kerala, to go to work 2000-odd km from home. Most were school dropouts, construction workers, masons, painters, unskilled labourers, driven to migrate for livelihoods
Daily wages in #Kerala are considerably higher, almost Rs 800; accommodation clean; some contractors employed Bengali cooks and helpers for the workers. They could earn Rs 20,000-Rs 25,000 a month, it was a decent income, they could build assets at home.

We believe the judgement is full of errors and legally unsustainable conclusions. It will be challenged and we hope it will ultimately be squashed: #Congress leader #AbhishekManuSinghvi
All attempts to create a chilling, throttling and strangulating effect on open, fearless speech relating to public interest will not stop #RahulGandhi or Congress: Singhvi
Complainant in a defamation case should be the person that has allegedly been defamed. This has not been the case in which Rahul Gandhi has been convicted: Singhvi

In this thread 🧵, we zoom into the 4 political divisions of Gujarat and see how each one voted in the last two state elections. For reference, a map of political divisions juxtaposed with districts of Gujarat can be found here 👇
#gujaratelection2022 #GujaratElections
#gujaratelection2022 #GujaratElections
Saurashtra-Kutch - the biggest political division in the state both in terms of area and number of constituencies, swung dramatically in favour of INC in 2017 as compared to 2012. INC gained 14 seats in 2017 while the BJP lost 12 seats in the region.
#GujaratElections
#GujaratElections
Despite the swing, BJP gained around 1% vote share while the INC clocked a whopping 9% gain in vote share. It is noteworthy that this region is the least urbanised in the state and that BJP lost on 4 SC reserved seats from its 2012 tally which went to INC in 2017.

Leads from 2008 #Ahmedabad blasts (57 killed) helped in identifying the perpetrators of Delhi blasts (39 killed) & led us to L-18 #BatlaHouse: @singhkarnal2, then Jt CP @DelhiPolice tells me on #IndiaFirst. @GujaratPolice tracked #IndianMujahideen. Had reported 2008 Ahd blasts🖕
In Ahmedabad blasts #IndianMujahideen terrorists had planted the 5th & the most powerful bomb at the hospital. Their aim was to kill not just injured from other blast sites but also their relatives, doctors, police etc at hospital (Yet some give intellectual cover fire to terror)
#IndianMujahideen terrorists had also planned serial blasts in #Surat. IEDs planted on trees & billboards to inflict head injuries. Fortunately the circuit was defective.100s of lives were saved. A @GujaratPolice officer had told me a special team was constituted to neutralise IM
In 17 century Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj attacked & looted Mughal's major port & prosperous city Surat twice to humiliate Mughal power.On followers demand,we repeat our old tweets on first attack of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in thread form from today. Dutch portrait of Shivaji
In 1663 Maratha ruler Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj planned to attack & to loot Surat which was a wealthy major port & prosperous city of Mughal Empire of India to avenge & to humiliate Mughal power and to improve his finances from Surat which generated a million rupees in taxes.
In 1663 AD. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj sent his spy Bahirji Jadhav Naik to Surat to collect vital information for the strategy & planning of Surat attack. He returned with information & he told Shivaji Maharaj that attack with surprise element would be succeeded.
A look at the dismal living conditions of 8 lakh migrant loom #workers in #Surat, supposedly the 2nd cleanest city in India. After strenuous shifts, they stay in rotation in crowded rooms, amid power cuts, scarce water, filth & noise.ruralindiaonline.org/articles/livin… #SwachhSurvekshan2020
They live in 500 to 800-sq ft rooms, adjacent to the looms, each densely packed with 60-100 workers across two shifts. They sleep on worn mattresses infested with bed bugs. The blood of crushed bugs is visible on the grimy walls. There are termites & rats scurrying about too.
Each room has two toilets at one end that all the occupants use. The water for bathing, drinking and cooking comes from a common source. Supply is intermittent, and water is stored in a tank or plastic drum in most mess rooms, so the workers are unable to bathe every day.
1: Yesterday, as thousands of stranded migrants gathered at #Surat & #Mumbai, it was a bleak reminder that the needs of the most marginalized remain an afterthought in designing responses to the pandemic by those in power.
2: As the Government of India extends the nation-wide lockdown, the authorities must remember that the battle against #COVID19 must not leave behind the poor & marginalized.

3: @AIIndia reminds the Central & state govts to widen the access to social security, safety & protection & ensure that people’s basic needs are immediately met, including adequate shelter, food, water & sanitation.
The fight against #COVID19 must be inclusive.

To legitimise ones claim on the #Mughal throne, Khutba had to be read in ones name in the Friday prayers and a Sikka (Coin) had to be struck. Heres a thread of the coins struck in the name of Mughal Emperors with their names highlighted.
