Delete people from electoral lists using software first, then do wide publicity asking them to apply again, if they have been wrongly deleted. The Representation of People's Act has no provision for this method and ECI must follow its old procedures of providing notice at houses

First @passportsevamea insists in RTI response that #AarogyaSetu is a must for passport applicants. I challenge them, they perform a volte-face; say app not mandatory. Bottom line: Nobody can deny you entry at a Passport Seva Kendra for not having the app.

In today's Hindu, I argue that we need to professionalize intelligence gathering, bringing intelligence agencies under parliamentary oversight, making them non-partisan, and ensuring that civil liberties and rule of law are protected.

After #pegasus spyware reports emerged on 31st October 2019. The parliamentary committee on IT summonsed whatsapp and officials of MHA, DoT. Almost two years after this, we still don't know what the committee discussed. Any parliamentary committee behind a closed door is useless
