Doesn’t travel abroad, coz he can’t, not because he doesn’t want to
Your visa application requires you to disclose police cases and jail terms
.@AmitShah hits back at @RahulGandhi and @INCIndia - “I don’t travel abroad every six months; I stay among the people, and that is why I know. I can tell you that your government will not come to power for the next 30 years.
When you win in Kerala or Telangana, the Election Commission is good and the voter list is fine. But when you lose, you say the Election Commission is not functioning properly.”

In the first episode of the final season of ‘Koffee with Karan’ with actor Salman Khan, host Karan Johar revealed that he does not, in fact, drink black coffee and that his cup happens to actually contain Diet Coke.
As easily dissolvable metaphors go, that is a fine one for what the once-iconic series has become—a synthetic (and overhyped) cola in place of a natural drink that sharpens the senses.

How can @SauravDassss & @AshutoshRanka be lodged in Tihar high security cell on suicide watch for 5 days for going to Jantar Mantar to unfurl flag? And BJP goons who beat up kids get bail in hours. Amit Shah has gone mad with fear & insecurity.

#WATCH | Delhi: AISA National President Neha Bora says, "Law and order are being flouted in every possible way. Ordinary citizens are treated as if they were hardened criminals, a practice that has persisted in this country for a long time. The current movement has clearly exposed how people are being detained, whether during the day or in the evening, held in custody throughout the night, and only released the following morning or evening. Under what authority is this justified? By what law or order is it permissible to keep detainees held in custody all night long? Legally, individuals, especially women, ought to be released after sunset, yet this is not happening. Furthermore, there is a new narrative being pushed, one of chaos and anarchy. What kind of chaos and anarchy? The one you unleashed in Central Delhi? The people of Delhi cannot even breathe a sigh of relief; whichever route they take to get to work, they find it blocked. You are spreading chaos and anarchy across the nation. Please, spare the people of India. Impeach Gyanesh Kumar and halt SIR, so that the ordinary citizens of this country can breathe a sigh of relief, feel at ease, and have their voting rights ensured."
She adds, "They (Police) demanded my name, address, and other details. For a long time, they wouldn't even let me speak or consult with a legal advisor (lawyer). Our lawyers spent 5–6 hours trying to reach me; it was only after we managed to call them that they were finally allowed to meet me. These are the kinds of things these people have been doing for a long time."
#WATCH | Delhi: AISA National President Neha Bora has been released from detention by the Delhi Police after completion of formal procedures under Section 65 of the Delhi Police Act.
She was detained under preventive sections on the evening of October 16.

Dangerous precedent being set by the Delhi Police.
Neha is detained past sunset. Abhijeet is detained without violating bond conditions. Their locations are unknown. This is an abduction, a flagrant violation of the law. India can clearly see who the real anarchists are.

WHERE IS NEHA?
Delhi Police refuses to meet a delegation of lawyers and civil society members demanding the release of Neha.
Gather NOW in large numbers at Parliament Street Police Station to demand their release!
@DelhiPolice release Neha now!

"मुसलमान हैं भी तो क्या हम अपने ही देश में अपने हक की लड़ाई नहीं लड़ सकते?"
इस नौजवान के इन शब्दों ने झकझोर दिया।

अमित शाह जी- ध्यान से देख लीजिए, ये हिंदुस्तान है 👇
यहां न कोई हिंदू है, न मुस्लिम। न पुरुष है, न महिला। न कोई जाति है। यहां सिर्फ एक आवाज है, एक प्रोटेस्ट है- ये हिंदुस्तान है।
नरेंद्र मोदी और अमित शाह, आप दोनों इस आवाज के सामने खड़े मत होइए, क्योंकि इसके सामने कोई खड़ा नहीं हो सकता।
मैं सभी युवाओं और छात्रों से कह रहा हूं कि आप वीडियो एविडेंस रखिए।
जब ये मामला ख़त्म हो जाएगा, तब हम इन सबूतों का इस्तेमाल करेंगे और ऊपर से लेकर नीचे तक सबको सजा दिलाएंगे। कोई बचेगा नहीं।

VIDEO | Delhi: During a press conference after the INDIA bloc high-tea meeting at Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi’s residence, AISA president Neha Bora says, “When we say ‘We the People versus the BJP’, we are talking about one fight. We are talking about one common enemy, one enemy of the people of this country, one enemy of Indian democracy, one enemy of the Constitution, and the name of that enemy is the BJP. If the BJP thinks it can attack the foundations of democracy, and when people take to the streets to protest and demand their voting rights, their right to protest can also be taken away and they will remain silent, then the BJP has something else on its head. They can compromise democracy and what the Constitution stands for. They have never played a role in making India a democracy or in upholding the Constitution. But the common people of this country, who have fought and sacrificed their lives to make India a democracy and defend the Constitution, are not ready to settle for a stolen mandate or a compromised democracy...”
