Good job, Sir.

Different topic: I have noticed that Indian Express has tilted even further against BJP and for the Congress. Like Mamta did in WB, all BJP ruled states should stop buying these English newspapers in state libraries and other govt places and shut off all advertising revenues to them.
This will save govt money that can otherwise be used for education and children's development.
Please follow Mamta's WB example in this regard.
