    #MeitY ban on #Telegram in #India is an egregious & asinine attempt by the #GovernmentofIndia to hide the utter #incompetence & #irresponsibility of #NTA in conducting critical #exams. Telegram is only a convenient channel for the leakers, not the most resilient.

    #Scapegoating, #censorship & #despotism aren't the alternatives to taking #accountability of #leaks inside NTA. Nor does it absolve you of the resulting loss of lives to suicides. Shame on you, #GoI!

  5. A quotation from Adlai Stevenson

    The anatomy of patriotism is complex. But surely intolerance and public irresponsibility cannot be cloaked in the shining armor of rectitude and righteousness. Nor can the denial of the right to hold ideas that are different — the freedom of man to think as he pleases. To strike freedom of the mind with the fist of patriotism is an old and ugly subtlety.

    Adlai Stevenson (1900-1965) American diplomat, statesman
    Speech (1952-08-27), “The Nature of Patriotism,” American Legion Convention, Madison Square Garden, New York City

  10. A quotation from Ambrose Bierce

    INCORPORATION, n. The act of uniting several persons into one fiction called a corporation, in order that they may be no longer responsible for its actions. A, B and C are a corporation. A robs, B steals and C (it is necessary that there be one gentleman in the concern) cheats. It is a plundering, thieving, swindling corporation. But A, B and C, who have jointly determined and severally executed every crime of the corporation, are blameless. It is wrong to mention them by name when censuring their acts as a corporation, but right when praising.

    Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
    “Incorporation,” “Devil’s Dictionary” column, San Francisco Wasp (1885-10-03)
