It is listed today. As of now I have no instructions: ASG Chetan Sharma
We will proceed. Did the meeting take place : Court
Yes, it did. Mr Mehra is appearing before Surpreme Court: Adv Satyakam urges Court to take up the matter little later.
You think you have discharged your duty with this think of order? This is nothing more than a paper exercise and satisfying your own conscience: Court
I will take instructions: Stayakam
Don't be unreasonable. You can't win this wat by issuing (such directions) sitting in your office.. you are only compounding your problems: Court to Delhi Government
Court says it will await outcome of Surpreme Court.

@CMODelhi @MoHFW_INDIA
Centre has issued order on usage of oxygen: Court
They are not sending the oxygen. You need not wait for order to send one communication to Linde to send oxygen to Shanti Mukund: Singh
We are not here for brownie points.. we are here to save lives: Singh
Have it (2.69) delivered right away : Court
I'll report to my lord in half an hour. I can apologize : Mehra
You apologize today. I hope you don't apologise tomorrow: Singh
We are not going to supervise. You have to issue and then place it before us : Court
You have (the data) now.. you pass it right now. We hope in the meantime, the supplies are not stopped : Court
Uncertainty must go: Singh
Mehra says there are 13 additional tankers at disposal and 18 more are to be imported.
This is constant complain. Which means there is truth in it : Court
@CMODelhi
Have you given contacts of other officers, Court asks
I'll take instructions. Why are these calls not going there (to others) : Mehra
One representative was there. There are 10-14 of them. We repeatedly asked : Mehra
If we take action in these times..: Mehra
You take over the plant. Take these people in custody. You have all the power..these cylinders are being sold in black market for lakhs of rupees: Court
Mehra says action will be taken by evening.
SG Tushar Mehta points out the power of govt under Disaster Management Act.
Were they informed by you? : Court
I'll take instructions: Mehra
They are the same centres. Across India there are no cylinders now..: Mehra
There has to be a mechanism for individuals because the black market is causing this problem. If police is also impleaded in the matter : Trivedi
One friend's factory has been taken over by Rajasthan, says Mehra
We have written to the war room: Mehra
How can we direct those officers (in Punjab and Haryana) to release the cylinders : Court
Are you govt hospitals following this ?: Court
I'll file it on affidavit. Is someone come to you in emergency..: Mehra
Generally to issue such orders in not called for. Doors of the hospitals are open. This proceeds on assumption that hospital are not going their jobs : Court
Of what: Court
The intent is not that someone wants to take action : Mehra
Mehra says patients are being denied treatment.
It is just an advisory: Mehra
Two people are in one bed. There are people everywhere. How will we do it : Aggarwal

Some WESC submissions that are worth a read....(my thread of bookmarks)
Judge Paula Grey is president of the Gender Recognition Panel
She doesn't make any recommendations, but she sets out how the process currently works
Which chimes with my analysis of the GRP User Panel and statistics https://t.co/XixEz7lNJv
She is also co-author if the Equal Treatment Bench Book and writes about how the judges are trained by Gendered Intelligence
There is the government's own response
https://t.co/bOn9XecAkz
On single sex spaces they say the law is clear that service providers are able to restrict access to spaces on the basis of biological sex where there is clear justification.
The response from @womensaid is significant.
Their members want trans survivors to get support they need but not by undermining their ability to serve women with female staff & female only services
They highlight lack of clarity
https://t.co/p7096sZcos
This was their position in 2015
They have moved on alot - they have been consulting with members since last year, and have had the courage to say what their members told them, not what Stonewall wanted to

This is what he wants to do.
No matter how this trial plays out, the US will remain divided between those who choose truth, Democracy, and rule of law and the millions who reject these things.

The question is how to move forward.
My mantra is that there are no magic bullets and these people will always be with us.
Except for state legislatures, they have less power now than they have for a while.

The only real and lasting solutions are political ones. Get Democrats into local offices. Get people who want democracy to survive to the polls at every election, at every level.
It’s a constant battle.

Maybe I should tell you all about Thurgood Marshall’s life to illustrate how hard the task is and how there will be backlash after each step of progress.
4/
Precisely. That's why Thurgood Marshall's life came to mind.
We are still riding the backlash that started after the Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education.
That's why I keep saying there are no easy

Yep. My relatives continue to support Trump and make false equivalencies as justification. I\u2019ve found it impossible to present factual information that changes minds. Trump\u2019s emotional appeal registers with them: that things were better before civil rights advances.

We know that elite institutions like the one Flier was in (partial) charge of rely on irrelevant status markers like private school education, whiteness, legacy, and ability to charm an old white guy at an interview.
Harvard's discriminatory policies are becoming increasingly well known, across the political spectrum (see, e.g., the recent lawsuit on discrimination against East Asian applications.)
It's refreshing to hear a senior administrator admits to personally opposing policies that attempt to remedy these basic flaws. These are flaws that harm his institution's ability to do cutting-edge research and to serve the public.
Harvard is being eclipsed by institutions that have different ideas about how to run a 21st Century institution. Stanford, for one; the UC system; the "public Ivys".
As a dean of a major academic institution, I could not have said this. But I will now. Requiring such statements in applications for appointments and promotions is an affront to academic freedom, and diminishes the true value of diversity, equity of inclusion by trivializing it. https://t.co/NfcI5VLODi
