A year ago 22 Muslims were killed and thousands were booked under draconian charges while being brutally tortured in police custody in 2019 during the brutal crackdown by UP police against ANTI-CAA protestors.
Sharing a crux of our fact finding report in UP last year

 Out of all the three deceased victims Najma Bano was the lone woman to have sought legal redressal from the Allahabad High Court for her son’s killing. “Shaheed ho gaya mera beta”, she told as she described her 23 year old son’s murder.  In the afternoon of 20th December 1/1
two of her sons including Aftab stepped out for namaz. She remarks that Aftab even told her, “Ammi, juloos mein nahi jaayenge, (mahaul) bahut kharab hai”.1/2
It was sometime then as Aftab headed back from the mosque toward his home at Babupurwa, that police firing hit and shot him fatally. Najma said her own son indicted the police before he breathed his last. “Mere bachhe ne khud hi bataya ki police waale ne goli maara hai. 1/3
Her son was in the hospital when he told her this, and she went on to stress that the doctor at Hospital shooed the rest of the family out of the ward. “No one in the hospital spoke to us properly or informed us properly. He was shot twice, two bullets not one. 1/4
11 year old Saghir Ahmed died during the brutal lathicharge in Varanasi . His father told us “Uski body par koi nishan nahi mili, aisa lag raha hai ki woh dab gaya bheed mein”, his father Wakil Ahmed said. He added that they still haven’t received the post-mortem, saying “2/1
He was playing outside until 4 pm, and then after coming home to keep his cycle, he went out again and we didn’t even realise it …. He could not even have known what was happening, how could a little kid have known?” 2/2
In Varanasi, we found that police had arrested 69-70 activists many of whom were surprisingly from middle-class and non-Muslims backgrounds.
Among the arrested and now released,we met Ravi & Ekta Shekhar, climate change activists who were parents of a breast-fed infant child,2/3
both of whom were in custody for close to 2 weeks. Along with them Sanya , Manish Sharma , Dhananjay suggu and others was also arrested. Up police also picked up passers-by who were found near the protest but never proven to be a part of it.2/4
One such person, Akbar Khan, had gone down to drink chai while his wife had just given birth in a nearby hospital, but he was nevertheless picked up and arrested along with the 69 protesters.
In Lucknow we witnessed that the police actions were the most brutal after kanpur.Some of the High profile people faced the brutal actions of police in lucknow.
S.R. Darapuri (former IAS officer ), @sadafjafar(Social activist ), Advocate Mohammad Shoaib  (Lawyer) 3/1
Dipak Kabir (social activist). There were allegations on police persons in Hazaratganj police station in Lucknow of beated @sadafjafar with a  baton on her legs and hands and later on was kicked by a male police officer in her abdomen and left bleeding . 3/2
Police personnels were repeatedly calling her pakistani and said “Tum log khaate yahaan ka ho aur gaate pakistan ka ho”.
Dipak Kabir who just went to see sadaf jafar in Police station was arrested by Police & was repeatedly called “ Urban Naxal “&brutally beaten up in the PS .3/3
@srdarapuri , retired IAS from Uttar Pradesh was kept in House arrest by police from 19th Dec. 2019 and later on was denied food for more than 24 hours in police detention and was not given blankets in jail .
Four people were shot during the protest among which one of the person Mohammed Wakeel died .
In Mau, Shukrana Parveen,wife of one of the arrested person said “The police lied to us by barging late at night into our home&saying we are only taking you for questioning as you may be of assistance to our investigation.But my husband & 3 other men from our family are still 4/1
in jail . They also came in around 3 am but recorded the time of arrest as being in the afternoon!”
Out of the 20 charges in various FIRs registered in Mau,some of them included charges of attempt to murder on injured protesters itself 4/2
In Mau, we saw UP Police’s hoardings in the market square featuring images of 110 Muslim men and a request to the public-at-large to provide further information about these men.4/3
Families of some of the men in those images said that the police has picked up photos from private social media accounts of local Muslims & used these as images of “Wanted” protesters!
Even after one year of the crackdown UP police continues with the witch hunt of anti-caa protestors.
Most recently Manish Sharma is continoulsy being haunted by Police in varanasi.
Sadaf jafar is still facing consequences & in mau many protestors were recently slapped with NSA .

Ok so there’s a conspiracy theory going around that this woman was faking her injury with an onion.

This is likely false. Onions are a folk remedy for pepper spray.


The theory, which has some merit, is that since onions make you cry, it helps flush the irritants from your eyes with natural tears.

However, this is not recommended as a treatment for pepper spray and is ultimately not very effective.

Pepper spray, tear gas, mace, CN, HC, and other agents are best removed with a flush of water or, if you have the proper mixture, saline. Nothing else.

We do not do chemistry in our eyeballs. We are not putting chemicals in our eyes. We are not putting produce in our eyes. We are removing the chemicals with safe, neutral water.

Correcting A Monstrous Crime Against Our Country

My friend and legal mentor @shestokas provided this article and spent a bit of time with me speaking about

2) Dave told me that it's author, Publius Huldah, is one of his most trusted and respected authorities on all things constitutional. He encouraged me to go slowly with the article, contemplating each point carefully. That's what we're going to do together, here.

3) What's more, we're going to be build our Constitution reading skills while we're at it. As I started studying, I realized that I have never grown comfortable with the Constitution's format, in reading it. I get it, but I've not spent much time doing it.

4) Great news! The Internet makes it SO much easier than you might imagine. At this link, you can easily navigate to any section Publius Huldah (PH) guides us to. You'll also see, we really need to read it in context. Check this

5) Our story begins with Article IV, Section 4., with a clear statement of powers, responsibilities, and hierarchy of holding elections. If we're going to address this monstrous crime, we need to know exactly what the crime is, and who committed it. PH points us straight there.

1/ Thread: "A Silicon Valley Ponzi Scheme"

Thanks to @chamath for laying this out in Social Capital's 2018 annual letter.

I've always appreciated his outspokenness.

2/ The hardest thing for most startups today is the path to market: first finding product-market fit & a way to reach customers, then building a ruthless machine to acquire, monetize & retain them.

3/ Because of this, when the VC industry invests capital into fast growing startups today, the plurality (if not majority) of invested capital will go into user acquisition and ad spending, for better or worse— usually worse.

4/ Todays massive venture-backed advertising, sales, and user acquisition playbook has morphed into one that champions growth at any cost.

This is creating a big bill that will soon come due...

5/ Ad impressions and click-throughs are bid up to outrageous prices by startups flush with venture money, and prospective users demand more and more subsidized products to gain their initial attention.

1/ Productivity tip: when I keep procrastinating on something I often trick myself by saying, "ok just work on it for the next 20 minutes" or some short period of time, "and then you can chill/relax guilt free" and give myself some treat (sugar, netflix, etc)

2/ Usually at the 20 minute mark (sometimes I set a timer) I'm so engrossed in what I'm doing that I don't want want to stop and end up working on it for the next hour or two. But getting started seems to be the hardest part.

3/ Key to this: you have to actually be ok with stopping after 20 minutes and being guilt free if that's how you feel. So it's not a trick, i have the option every time, I just often don't want to use it once i'm in the zone.

Mr. Vijay Kedia built a net worth of over Rs. 800 crores.

But you probably never read past that headline.

So I binged hours of interviews to learn his investing principles and strategies.

Here are 20 lessons on investing from @VijayKedia1 Sir:

Collaborated with @AdityaTodmal


Before I start, a quick disclaimer, please don't ape his portfolio.

As the entry price, horizon and risk appetite would be far different than yours.

Rather lets draw inspiration and try to learn his stock picking skills.

Now let's DIVE IN👇

1/ Started off as a trader:

- Soon, beginner’s luck started to fade out and loses started to mount, to an extent where his mother was about to sell her ornaments.

- Although he was able to dodge the situation.

- This incident taught him the biggest lesson to have a stop-loss.

2/ Punjab Tractors:

- In 1990, he made his first investment by putting in his 10-years savings of Rs 35,000 in this stock, based on a news trigger that tractor industry will witness a turnaround.

- It worked and fetched him 4-5 times which he calls it as a fluke.


3/ He believes that an investor must possess three qualities:

i. Knowledge,
ii. Courage, and
iii. Patience.

THREAD: 12 Things Everyone Should Know About IQ

1. IQ is one of the most heritable psychological traits – that is, individual differences in IQ are strongly associated with individual differences in genes (at least in fairly typical modern environments). https://t.co/3XxzW9bxLE


2. The heritability of IQ *increases* from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, the effect of the shared environment largely fades away. In other words, when it comes to IQ, nature becomes more important as we get older, nurture less. https://t.co/UqtS1lpw3n


3. IQ scores have been increasing for the last century or so, a phenomenon known as the Flynn effect. https://t.co/sCZvCst3hw (N ≈ 4 million)

(Note that the Flynn effect shows that IQ isn't 100% genetic; it doesn't show that it's 100% environmental.)


4. IQ predicts many important real world outcomes.

For example, though far from perfect, IQ is the single-best predictor of job performance we have – much better than Emotional Intelligence, the Big Five, Grit, etc. https://t.co/rKUgKDAAVx https://t.co/DWbVI8QSU3


5. Higher IQ is associated with a lower risk of death from most causes, including cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, most forms of cancer, homicide, suicide, and accident. https://t.co/PJjGNyeQRA (N = 728,160)
