Back while at @OffCMCVellore, I would have patients coming into OPD often only requesting a paracetamol prescription. Now drugs in CMC cannot be dispensed without a doctor's prescription. I used to ask them why go through the bother of waiting in line to see a doctor... 1/🧵

The biggest ever sports icon of India is Major Dhyan Chand. 49 nations took part in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin and the Indian delegation led by Major Dhyan Chand was one of only two teams that refused to salute Adolf Hitler, as they marched past him during the opening ceremony.

Late night shout into Twitter vacuum: anyone who believes that that BBC documentary is politically damning for the current regime is living in some sort of delusion. Bhakts always knew and their bhakti originates precisely from the same rabid hatred.

JOSHIMATH SINKING THREAD: All the coverage on Joshimath will show you visuals of haphazard construction n tilted homes with cracks, n also build a narrative that it is the main reason for the disaster. That’s half the truth and a coverup exercise, to protect the main CULPRIT. ++
