After 16 days of COVID i mixed my father’s ashes into a rose plant and two evergreen trees, sought his blessings, and return my broken heart to the reporting road for @themojostory starting travels through rural India. This will be a personal pilgrimage. Wish us luck and love

When I went back to #Kargil with @VishalBatra1974- twin of #Kargil War hero Vikram Batra & we drove to the mountain top now named after his amazing brother. We cried a little together, he wrote a letter to Vikram & we released the letter into the clouds, sure he could see us

The Reel vs Real of #Kargil and Lakshya- Preity Zinta as Romila Dutta ! How close was she to the truth of my experience in Kargil? #KargilVijayDiwas

A Night in a Bunker- Outside the roar of guns, the whistle of rockets, the sounds of war, inside an old tape recorder played country music as soldiers kept their calm. On #KargilVijayDiwas - turn the clock back to 1999 & an unforgettable masterclass in life and journalism for me

Here's The Story of The Iconic Vikram Batra Interview with Me. Proud & Humbled to that I could chronicle & capture these immortal words of #VikramBatra at the #Kargil frontline. This is how his words 'Yeh Dil Maange More' - then a Pepsi jingle- were said to me in a conversation…

26 years ago, a young woman a little over 26 herself, had the honour of a lifetime in being able to report the Kargil War from the battle ground's frontline in a life altering experience that taught me all i know about Journalism, Bravery, Life, Love & Loss. On #KargilVijayDiwas…

No, his home was not sealed, contrary to media reports, but the chill between the Modi government & #JagdeepDhankar is more than evident. Watch @tehseenp @Rajatsethi86 @Sanjayuvacha @Sugataraju- in this incisive, but also hilarious conversation. In full youtube.com/watch?v=REsC-X…

What's behind #JagdeepDhankar Exit I Was he eased out & Why? Was it over the Yashwant Verma Cash Case - which @DilipTheCherian calls the "last straw"; to make space for someone else as @SandipGhose says, @AshwiniShahi @BrijeshKalappa also weigh in. In full youtube.com/watch?v=tiWDLG…

The exit of #JagdeepDhankar is clearly triggered by an incident / argument that took place on Monday afternoon. Till then it was business as usual with his office announcing his travel schedule for the coming week! Nothing else explains the abruptness of it

Till 4 pm this afternoon VP Jagdeep Dhankar’s office clearly had no plans of his intent to resign as an announcement was made for an event in jaipur on 23rd. Whatever happened was sudden. And for a reason.
