"Modi sahab does not speak at all these days. He is one of the great disappointments of my life. The man should speak."

Said : Ram Jethmalani, an eminent lawyer and one of the first persons to propose Narendra Modi's name as BJP's prime ministrial candidate.

According to a PTI report carried by the Economic Times, Jethmalani criticised the government for stopping Hurriyat leaders from attending Pakistan High Commission's proposed reception which eventually led to the cancellation of NSA-level talks between both countries. 

Jethmalani said the Pakistan High Commissioner here represents a sovereign government and "how can you prevent him from meeting people?" He opined that such actions bring "tremendous disrepute" to the country and creates bad precedent of diplomatic behaviour. 

"They neither know international law, our leaders...I am talking about all leaders, more in the Congress. Modi sahab does not speak at all these days. He is one of the great disappointments of my life. The man should speak," Jethmalani was quoted as saying. 

"If you don't know how to speak then at least consult someone. Surely, there are better people and just because you are Prime Minister, you are not the wisest person. But he does not want to learn."

According to him calling Hurriyat leaders as 'separatists' reflects "gross misunderstanding" and "ignorance" among the "illiterate people in cabinet, government, parties". 

He said that "a lasting and honourable peaceful resolution to the Kashmir issue must and can be found which can be acceptable to political elements and regions of the state." 

It is worth noting here that Jethmalani had formed a Kashmir Committee in 2002 to play the role of interlocutor on Kashmir. 

According to Jethmalani, this committee had ensured that both sides diluted their extreme positions. "On their side, extreme position is secession. On this side, the extreme position is repeal of Article 370," he claimed. 

"If you don't know how to speak then at least consult someone. Surely, there are better people and just because you are Prime Minister, you are not the wisest person. But he does not want to learn," he added. 

Watch Jethmalani Speaking on this issue.

“People come to Times Square from all over the world because it is a little quirky and slightly chaotic and because there’s some allure to that”

Corey Johnson

Said : Corey Johnson, a City Council member whose district includes Times Square. 

New York Times reporter Patrick McGeehan, in his news article on increasing problem of topless women, known as desnudas, parading around Times Square, reported Johnson as saying that he and another councilman, Daniel R. Garodnick, were working on a bill that would limit when and where these women and also the costumed characters, can ply their trade. 

He told the NYT reporter that their model would be based on the “time, place and manner restrictions” the New York city has placed on street vendors in crowded areas of certain parks similar to the designated spots created for a limited number of sketch artists and other street vendors.

Mr. Johnson reportedly said "the goal was not to rid Times Square of the characters and other street hustlers but to rein them in so they do not drive away the throngs of tourists."

“People come to Times Square from all over the world because it is a little quirky and slightly chaotic and because there’s some allure to that but if it becomes unsafe and creepy, that becomes a problem that we have to address,” Johnson said as per the news.

Bill de Blasio

New York City, Mayor

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio has acknowledged that his office had received complaints about these topless women for their aggressive solicitation of payment to pose for pictures. He placed them in the same category as the gaggle of costumed characters that have become nearly synonymous with predatory panhandling in and around Times Square. 

“Let’s face it. The women in Times Square, or the furry creatures in Times Square, are engaged in a business. We believe that that opens the door for us to enforce the way we would any other business. And we will do so, while still respecting constitutional rights.” Bill de Blasio

"I see the women parading around Times Square covered in little but body paint not as creative artists, but as pushy panhandlers whose efforts to separate tourists from their money should be regulated," the Mayor said.
