BJP/Modi claimed to be much better and different than congress then why Bhakts & supporters drag Congress to defend BJP & Modi's bad doings ? "congress did bad so it's ok if BJP is doing the same " ... Then how BJP is better than congress and deserves the power over congress ? 🤪

I'll say it. CO2 is a good gas. Methane and N20 (nitrous oxide) are the real greenhouse gases. Global warming potential of methane is 104 and for nitrous oxide its 300 vs CO2's 1 over a 100 year period.

Fracking (methane producing) needs to be banned. And nitroexplosives and nitrofertilizer (huge nitrous oxide emitters) lobby needs to be shut down to curtail climate change. But the powers that be at all these Paris COP21 and Katowice never ever talk about methane or nitrous oxide.

Taxing carbon is just another kosher money making scheme. Have people not heard of the protests against the other "Champion of the Earth" Macron? Frenchies are baying for his blood.

People should not hijack any event for irrelevant and unrelated promotions. That being said people always ramble with irrelevant anecdotes and it is not always easy to discern where the line really is. That is why all presenters/speakers should get assigned a time limit and be provided a contract that outlines what is expected/what is out of bounds. A screen in front of the speaker displays time remaining and issues reminders if they get off track. If they don't heed three warnings - then they should get cut off.

I saw Palekar's interview with Barkha and I think I am with Palekar on this issue. According to Palekar, he was being critical of the National gallery of modern arts for not being open and accessible to more local artists which was taken as criticism of a government institution by the lady who cut him off. He even thanked the NGMA for conducting the event and providing them a stage to talk about Barve. She was too rude in her tone in my opinion. Also, he wasn't given any brief over the limitations in content of the speech.

I don't think this was a case of intolerance as Barkha tried to portray it as - she even got in beef, lynching into the interview - it is Barkha, so I understand her need to do so, but the NGMA shouldn't really curtail criticism of its organisation and some decency should be exercised on part of the officials while talking to someone as senior as Amol Palekar.

matlab disrespect by the organizers was the issue, but it was made into intolerance by Madam Barkha.

Yes...looks like disrespect becoz he was criticizing a govt organization was stretched beyond context and made into an overall intolerance for critizing the govt

that is the reason why I don't trust media at all.
Whether it is the right wing chutiyas or the left wing kaminas.

*sigh* a reflection of our lack of nuance these days. Each side is ready to blame the other as wrong that no one sees the full context.
