<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Mr. Musk, yes, no billionaire should dictate a nation’s policy - Indian or American.

India must welcome competition in satellite internet, from Indian and global providers, whoever offers the most practical and affordable last-mile solution for those in remote regions. In countries with lower per-capita incomes, satellite internet must be affordable too. High subscription fees and equipment costs risk putting it beyond the reach of ordinary households. Connectivity must bridge the digital divide, not create a new one.

India knows our networks and spectrum are strategic infrastructure, not merely commercial assets. India’s national security safeguards are non-negotiable. 

Every country makes choices based on its own interests. Those in the West cannot preach free markets while practicing protectionism at home. USA imposed 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs to protect its domestic industry, just as India takes measures to protect its own domestic manufacturers. Both India and the US have restricted Huawei over security concerns. One cannot demand a level playing field from others only when it suits its own agenda.

Indians will internally debate, question and address our strengths and shortcomings as a democratic country. 

Take BharatNet, India’s programme to bring broadband to village-level local bodies. We will question why, as the CAG’s 2026 audit report found, the programme is struggling to meet its original objectives. Why were only 33.2% of service-ready Gram Panchayats operational, despite ₹39,888 crore being spent? At the same time, we know to appreciate our telecom sector and regulations, which has made internet data among the world’s most affordable, bringing millions online.

India is a democracy, not a colony. We welcome the world, but we, the Indian people, will decide our own future - not Western vested interests, their double standards or any billionaire - Indian or American.</p>&mdash; Kamal Haasan (@ikamalhaasan) <a href="https://x.com/ikamalhaasan/status/2108549307230244902?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 9, 2026</a></blockquote>

<p>Singer Sona Mohapatra and actress Sandhya Mridul have publicly voiced their support for Tanushree Dutta after her remarks on veteran actor Nana Patekar’s death sparked backlash. Patekar passed away at the age of 75 in Goa due to a cardiac arrest, prompting a wave of tributes across the film industry and social media. However, public reaction quickly turned hostile toward Tanushree Dutta after she expressed her feelings on his passing, leading Mohapatra and Mridul to call out the hypocrisy of forcing survivors to remain silent or perform grief. &nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h2>Sona Mohapatra Calls Out Demands to Silence Survivors</h2><p>Taking to X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, singer Sona Mohapatra confronted critics who insisted Tanushree should suppress her past trauma out of respect for the deceased or his philanthropic record.“Death deserves dignity. So do the living. Mourning an actor is 1 thing. Demanding that a woman who spoke up about her trauma just shut up is another #India. Since when did death erase uncomfortable truths? Old age a virtue? Death = Sainthood? #TanushreeDutta #MeToo #NanaPatekar.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In a video shared on the social media platform, Mohapatra acknowledged that while she often finds herself in the minority for speaking out, the public's harassment of Dutta was unacceptable, “Nana Patekar passed away yesterday, a celebrated actor, people are mourning him, understandably so. I have no issues with that. What’s disturbing me is the way people are attacking Tanushree Dutta. Seriously, what do you expect from her?”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Addressing the severe personal costs Dutta bore after coming forward, Mohapatra emphasized, “This woman spoke up about her sexual harassment on sets with this gentleman. Fought an exhausting battle. Faced a public humiliation and professional consequences. And now, she’s supposed to forget her experience and perform what for you? Grief? That’ll comfort you?”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mohapatra also directly addressed women participating in the social media attacks against Dutta, asking, “Really? Is humiliating another woman your idea of engagement?”</p><p>She stressed that honouring an artist's career should not require erasing a survivor's lived reality, “Dying shouldn’t erase uncomfortable chapters of someone’s life.

<p> </p><h2>Sandhya Mridul Reinforces That Death Does Not Erase Abuse</h2><p>Actress Sandhya Mridul echoed Mohapatra's sentiment in a reflective post on Instagram. Without naming Patekar or Dutta directly, she highlighted the long-term impact on survivors when an accused figure passes away.</p><p> </p><p>“Does a person stop being an abuser when they die? Does the harm they caused disappear too? For survivors, it doesn’t. A survivor lives with it for as long as they live. I will always stand with the survivor.”</p><p> </p><p>Expanding on the point in her Instagram Stories, Mridul noted that public tributes should not invalidate past harm, “A person's death does not automatically erase the harm they may have caused. Abuse does not become untrue because the abuser is gone, and the experiences of survivors do not become less real in the face of public tributes.”“It is possible to mourn someone, and it is also important to remember that there may be people carrying pain connected to them. When only praise is allowed and survivors are forgotten, it can feel like their truth disappears all over again.”</p><h2>Tanushree Dutta and the #MeToo Movement</h2><p>Tanushree Dutta’s fallout with Nana Patekar dates back to 2008 on the sets of the film Horn 'OK' Pleassss. Dutta alleged that Patekar behaved inappropriately and intimidated her during a song shoot, a claim he denied. In 2018, Dutta spoke out again about the incident, catalysing the #MeToo movement in the Indian film industry. Calling out Patekar publicly led to severe professional setbacks, relentless public scrutiny, and a protracted legal battle for Dutta.</p><p> </p><p>Following news of Patekar's demise, Dutta faced significant backlash for referring to him as "evil dead" and posting a video questioning why she was expected to forgive someone who never acknowledged his actions or offered an apology.</p>

“Hello, everyone in Latin America. We are currently in Peru. Since this is my first time coming to Peru in my life, I’m very excited and happy!

Just like in Colombia, the members and staff are having a very difficult time because there are people staying in front of the hotel we are staying at all day long. It is so noisy that even inside our rooms, everyone is having trouble sleeping. Not only that, but we are also causing a great inconvenience to the other guests staying at the same hotel. We are grateful for your warm welcome and enthusiasm, but if we cannot get enough rest and sleep, it will also affect our performances with you.

So please, not only in Lima, but also in Chile, Brazil, Argentina, and the various countries in Asia that we will visit afterward, we would like to ask you not to continue staying in front of the hotels. We ask you sincerely.

We believe that ARMY, the coolest fans in the world, will understand and that you will not do this. We hope that we can become a more mature and proud relationship with one another. We will also do our best at today’s concert.

Thank you and we love you always.

AICWA strongly condemns Tanushree Dutta's &quot;Evil Dead&quot; remark on the passing of legend Nana Patekar

The entire film industry and the whole country are in mourning at the passing of Nana Patekar, the Padma Shri awardee, the man who served the nation during the Kargil War, and the artist whose Naam Foundation stood by farmers' families in distress. We pay him our humble tributes and stand with his family in their hour of grief.

At such a time, Tanushree Dutta's statement on social media, in which she used the words &quot;Evil Dead,&quot; is deeply objectionable, insensitive and shameful. AICWA strongly condemns it.

To use such words for a person after his death goes against basic humanity. Until today, no one in our film industry has made such a statement after someone's passing. You are the first, and we pray you will be the last. People in this industry know what to say on such an occasion and when to stay silent. You should have kept a check on your tongue.

You said that today is your work day, that you are going to Lucknow for a big event, and that your whole day is planned. Do your work; nobody asked you. Whether your event is in Lucknow or London, whether you focus or not, nobody is interested. On a day when the country is mourning the loss of a stalwart, speaking about your own event and your own plans reflects a very small mindset.

We pray for the peace of Nana Patekar's soul.
