During the COVID-19 pandemic, a woman contacted me on social media asking for help, saying her brother was unwell. She told me that her parents were very old and lived abroad. She called it a desperate situation and asked me if I could help her. As a journalist, I have a following and I tweet about it. An ambulance was soon ready for her and the chief minister of the state government got back to me. So I used this attention I got in a productive way. But an ideological loner won’t get you very far. You need to surround yourself with more people who share your thoughts and ideologies to make things happen. I believe that justice obtained in the Legislative Council is more important than justice obtained in the courts. Even if you can’t do something, you should let someone with authority do it. What matters is the end result. ”
