The state government has in a new policy made a number of proposals to create the requisite housing, including incentives for developers and unlocking vacant land. Manasi Phadke explains the policy in Mumbai Matters. 

The headline says: Rajasthan teacher arrested for deleting Ganesh Chaturthi greetings on WhatsApp. The last line says : The villagers filed a complaint and the police registered an FIR and arrested Ansari on charges of disturbing peace in the locality. 

What had indeed "disturbed the peace"?  The deletion of a post or the protest!

RG & US speech controversy   Sukla Sen post: 

<what Rahul Gandhi said in the US about Sikhs, their turban and kada.   https://youtu.be/V0twrFSsr_Q  > 

It's more than obvious that he talked of Sikhs (first) only to illustrate and in the process of elaborating his views on the dangerous supremacist character of the RSS ideology and politics. How it threatens, actually and potentially, the self-respect and identities of all minorities -- religious and linguistic, in particular. In the very same breath, he also talked of "Tamil", "Marathi", "Bengali" etc etc. He made it starkly explicit by assertively claiming that the fight is about the rights of minorities -- all minorities. Nowhere -- repeat nowhere -- he said that Sikhs in India are not allowed to wear turbans and kadas.

That's a gross distortion. Much the same way Narendra Modi claimed (ref.: <https://youtu.be/XUp9luKnvFo> and <https://https://youtu.be/XUp9luKnvFo?si=c-H_EfLGanBysjoV-rXws4>, during the last poll campaign, that the Congress had imported X-ray machine(s) to find out hidden jewelleries in Hindu houses in order to confiscate and gift to Muslims by weaponising the word "X-ray" used by Rahul Gandhi, as a metaphor, to describe the purpose and function of the caste census demanded by him (ref.: < https://m.economictimes.com/news/elections/lok-sabha/india/congress-will-do-x-ray-of-country-through-caste-census-says-rahul-gandhi/articleshow/110054368.cms  >)!

Yet, this video clip (< https://youtu.be/6RIgj0vpD10  >) put out by a major media outlet unabashedly claims in no uncertain terms that "Rahul Gandhi says Sikhs not allowed to wear turbans in India" in order to reinforce and amplify what the BJP leaders are mouthing: < https://www.ndtv.com/video/dangerous-narrative-minister-slams-rahul-gandhi-s-comment-on-sikhs-835827  >.
Just one example.
