@JahnaviIyer A picture of a campus dog from HNLU. Dogs have always been part of Indian settings. There are various risks like risk of road accident while driving, do we stop driving because of that? It is unacceptable to discriminate against people who support our community animals.

महात्मा ज्योतिराव फुले यांच्या जयंतीदिनी, समता, न्याय आणि शिक्षण या मूल्यांसाठी आपले जीवन समर्पित करणाऱ्या या द्रष्ट्या समाजसुधारकाला अभिवादन करतो. महिला आणि उपेक्षितांच्या हक्कांचा लढा सुरु करणारेही तेच होते. त्यांच्या प्रयत्नांमुळे शिक्षण हे सक्षमीकरणाचे एक शक्तिशाली साधन बनले. यावर्षी, आपण त्यांच्या जयंतीच्या द्विशताब्दी वर्षात पाऊल ठेवत आहोत. सामाजिक प्रगतीच्या वाटचालीत त्यांचे विचार सर्वांना सदैव मार्गदर्शन करत राहोत.

On the birth anniversary of Mahatma Jyotirao Phule, paying tributes to a visionary social reformer who dedicated his life to the ideals of equality, justice and education. He was also a pioneer in championing the rights of women and the marginalised. Through his efforts, education became a powerful instrument of empowerment. This year, we mark the start of his 200th birth anniversary celebrations. May his thoughts continue to guide everyone in the pursuit of societal progress.

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme.

The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality.

This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme.

A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

Say what you will but Trump’s approach to secure the Nobel Peace Prize is unorthodox.

@_robyn_smith In what terms? Just asking about your experience

Result:

40–50% less effort
Better issue visibility
AI didn’t replace auditors.

It fixed where their attention goes.

#Audit #Operations #ArtificialIntelligence #AI

[Akshay Mankar @AkshaykMankar]

Fix we implemented:

Voice → text
Sentiment detection
GPT summaries for risk areas

Auditors review signals, not noise.

#Audit #Operations #ArtificialIntelligence #AI

What actually happens:

Early audits → detailed
Mid → pattern-based
Late → shortcuts

You’re not auditing quality.
You’re sampling attention.

Most audit systems are broken for one reason:

Humans can’t stay consistent across 100+ reviews.

#India: We regret fast passage of Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Amendment Bill, 2026, without adequate stakeholder consultation. The amendments risk setting back hard-won rights of transgender people, replacing self-identification with mandatory medical verification processes.

India has been a pioneer for rights of transgender & gender-diverse people. This Bill will have far-reaching impacts on right to privacy & risk marginalisation of transgender people.

So the question is simple:
Should protection depend on why someone is who they are,
or on what happens to them because of it?

Because when exclusion is the same,
unequal protection starts to look like selection.

While reading the Transgender Amendment Bill, one thought stayed with me:
Two people can face the same discrimination.
The law may end up protecting only one of them.

And we’ve already addressed this once.
In the NALSA judgment, identity was recognised as self-determined.
Not something to be granted or verified.
