9 years of disaster. There are so many instances, that it would be tough to pick just 9.
Here's my list.
1. #Demonetisation. That one stroke of stupidity that literally broke the nation's back. ImageImageImage
#NaakamiKe9Saal
2. #Pulwama
Still remains a mystery, how a vehicle loaded with explosives could move around, undetected, in J&k, one of the most militarised regions in the world. What was more shameful than this was how BJP used this tragedy for electoral gains.

#NaakamiKe9Saal
3. #JammuAndKashmir
Art. 370 was abrogated. J&K stopped being a state. Was carved out into 2 UTs. With the objectives of bringing peace & development to the region. Result? We've ended with 2 UTs with seething discontent below the surface.

Order: I have already discussed scope of 2 different conspiracies. Since, Umbrella Conspiracy—larger conspiracy to incite riots in Delhi—is already subject matter of consideration in FIR 59/2020 (UAPA).., these 2 accused are entitled for discharge. #UmarKhalid #KhalidSaifi
Order: There is concept of an Umbrella Conspiracy being the larger conspiracy and several smaller conspiracies hatched under the larger conspiracy. The objective of Umbrella Conspiracy may be wider than the objective of smaller conspiracy. #UmarKhalid #KhalidSaifi
