Don't want to exaggerate, but this is first time I am witnessing a large public rally demanding affordable and efficient public transport in Delhi, or even in any other Indian city. We managed to mobilised more than 500 youth and workers who came together for public transport.
Solidarity to pro-worker / democratic forces in Brazil. If this referendum succeeds, it will set a standard for the whole world, especially for BRICS countries. Equality must be the path and end goal of development.
An ongoing referendum in Brazil is aiming for major shift in labour and taxation. It is mobilizing opinion to reduce working hours for the labouring class and increase taxation on the super rich. #taxthetop #inequality

Imagine producing one of the world’s most iconic teas and earning less than the official minimum wage. In Darjeeling's tea gardens workers are paid Rs. 250 per day which is 30% less than the daily wage for unskilled labour. And even this small amount goes unpaid for months.

Man gets caught cheating on camera, but somehow the internet is more upset about his wife potentially receiving alimony than the actual cheating!
"Mom, how did we get so rich?" "Your dad hugged an HR lady at a Coldplay concert and I got 50% from the divorce"
Editorial: We cannot stress enough the importance of improving the condition of domestic workers. Despite being indispensable to the functioning of countless households, these workers, mostly female or child, still remain outside the legal framework and vulnerable to…

🚨BREAKING🚨 British rapper OURKID disrupted his performance at the South Asian Music Summit, part of Manchester International Festival, to deliver a powerful speech to support Palestine Action and to condemn the event’s sponsorship by insurance giant Aviva. Watch to the end🔥
What’s happening in Gurugram is a textbook example of consequences of “Stupid Projects.” Years of pouring public money into flyovers, underpasses, and tunnels, marketed as symbols of ‘development’ have done little to solve the traffic problem. Instead, they’ve made things worse.

This is how the so-called development of major cities has forcibly displaced workers. The true cost of big cities is brutal.
राजू भाई के हिस्से का सच तो यही है.
It's now a criminal offence in the UK (under the Terrorism Act) to declare your support for Palestine Action, an organisation which does not believe in and has never advocated for the use of violence. This is suppression of dissent. This is authoritarianism.
An 83-year-old priest and a human rights lawyer were among around 25 people arrested for holding signs saying “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action” in Parliament Square today. The action, by protest group Defend Our Juries, was the first organised challenge to the…
Transboundary plastic pollution is a serious crisis. I visited Mannar, Sri Lanka, where I found that much of the plastic waste comes from India. Even saw a person wearing Bharat Jodo Yatra cap. he had found floating. Surprisingly there is no regional plan to address this!
