Sharp Edge;Jagdeep Dhankar’s exit proves that no matter how many conventions you trample on,how many opp leaders you insult & how much you function as an agent of the govt you can still suddenly be booted out by your masters.Loyalty is a one way street theprint.in/opinion/sharp-…
Mughals were invaders, they LOOTed the Country, they showed Red Eyes to the Enemies, sold it to Businessmen, change the name of the cities, promoted hate n Bigotry & above all, claimed that there was their religious monument beneath every others'.🧵👇🏽
GDP is the worst metric to compare in this decade. Try Per Capita Income instead, and you’ll immediately understand why our schools look like ruins while theirs look like innovation hubs. 15x GDP means nothing when 1.4 billion people are struggling for basic infrastructure.…
Ignorant, provincial, petty judges. "1988, India became one of the first to recognize the Palestinian State... 996, India opened its Representative Office in #Gaza ...India always played a proactive role in garnering support for the Palestinian cause..." roiramallah.gov.in/pages.php?id=32
"Be Patriots" : Bombay High Court dismisses petition filed by the Communist Party of India (Marxist) challenging the Mumbai Police’s refusal to grant permission for a protest at Azad Maidan against the alleged genocide in Gaza, citing India's foreign policy stance. A bench of…
That’s an amazingly low death rate in a city with no traffic police and zero regard for basic road safety even of one’s own children @HYDTP is blessed No need for a traffic police chief anymore Venkateshwara Swamy, Goddess Mahakali, and Maula Ali are taking care
Long read: #Hyderabad’s ORR has seen over 30 deaths this year, and 369 in the last five. @crime_kumar & I drove the 158-km stretch & spoke to experts to understand how preventable errors, systemic lapses keep turning this expressway into a death trap. thehindu.com/news/national/…
The RBI is no longer independent/autonomous of GoI. Every stakeholder knows this India has a weak state, no strong rules, and compromised institutions RBI was a holdout but no more Best to admit subordination to govt diktat and go from there Hypocrisy serves no one’s interest
An RBI IAS governor to talk up central bank independence is ludicrous. Govs. Reddy Rao Rajan and Patel faced sulking ministers and ego bloated finance babus when they tried even autonomy. Das was appointed to subordinate RBI to GoI as his appointment as a PMO minion underscores

Hype vs honesty: Why India’s real estate story is only half told – but fully sold India urgently needs transparent and regular real estate data – across home registrations, rentals, unsold inventory, housing prices and housing loans. Without this, the market remains dominated by…
Conscientious Indians, please realise that 'elites', especially those controlling government & capital, never considered 90% Indians worthy of being citizens, and therefore ought not to have voting rights as they are subjects. @ECISVEEP is now proudly practising what has been…
Yes repeatedly since at least 2018 and made a presentation when Mr Kant was in govt but he may not be aware The IAS and political leadership in PMO, finmin, completely ignored it They were engrossed in event management, slogan creation, and mujra, then, as now.
I have heard Professor @EmergingRoy say this and bringing the industry to where the labour is atleast six years back. Wonder what was done by the government all this while!
The Jane Street Affair My comment in the Economic & Political Weekly. Jane Street did not invent the system – it just used it for its benefit. What this saga exposes is a market increasingly fuelled by illusion: cheap trading, gamified apps, influencer hype and lax oversight.…
I haven't heard of shops selling broccoli being shut down because meat eaters sentiments are affected by selling broccoli at particular times. On the other hand... #justsaying
If some of us vegetarians aren’t forcing you to stop eating Meat, then why do Meat eaters have to mock us Vegetarians 🌱 that’s your food this is ours. Live and let live.
Hatred against Muslims is so much that even acts of kindness are refused to be acknowledged.
This paper has been in the making for a very long time, and am glad it has finally found its place @epw_in. A special note of gratitude to SAU colleagues & students. epw.in/journal/commen… @Societies_HET @rethinkecon
This isn't an issue. If I write a book about a religion I created, I will write that I'm superior. If I'm also really evil, I will write that my clan is superior, everyone else is inferior. 1/2
Brahmins are superior by birth because it says so in the scriptures they wrote themselves. Nice little circular argument they’ve got going on.
This clip which was shared with me is about Shri Inder Jit Singh Sidhu of Chandigarh. Apparently, every morning at 6 AM, in the quiet streets of Chandigarh’s sector 49, this 88-year-old retired police officer begins his day in service. Armed with nothing but a cycle cart and…
Why a 77-month low inflation of 2.1 percent doesn’t feel low The official inflation figure may guide policy, but it doesn’t reflect your bills. Your cost of living depends on your lifestyle, location, and spending priorities – and not on a national average inflation. So, while…
Tamilians ( not the 2% historically privileged thin reedy smelly pujari who say “tceh” are failures, failed to emigrate, and support bjp) Are so gastronomically and artistically civilised it’s almost a shame that they have to coexist in the same country as the rest of us
My village doesnot have a single pigeon, if anyone find a piegon, that day dinner will be Pura Curry. Pigeon meat (squab) is considered delicacy in many cultures. If people start eating them, their population will go down, it is just a different kind of chicken people 🐔🍗
Why are children and their education not our priority? 😢https://t.co/CENDkPAi6F
