Anjel Chakma from Tripura lost his life after facing brutal racial abuse in Dehradun. This is heartbreaking and unacceptable.

Racial violence must not be tolerated. People from the North East are as Indian as every citizen of this country. Racism should never be normalized, and the perpetrators must be punished.

My deepest condolences to Anjel’s family and loved ones. May his soul rest in peace.

Young Nagas are turning to food entrepreneurship using the very ingredients often derided as 'stinky'. In Delhi alone, there are 40 Naga food businesses! Significant because years of conflict & strife has meant Nagaland has among the highest rates of unemployment in India (Contd)

AI tools are getting so powerful. Today, I created an AI-powered podcast, where two AI robots discuss three of the main tools of #AntConc, using only the official help guide as a source. It's not perfect, but still quite fascinating. See what you think.
