Today's appointment of Vikram Doraiswami, who knows China well, as the next Ambassador in Beijing is welcome news. The Embassy in Beijing is in need of revitalization and fresh energy to navigate the on-going normalization of a very complex relationship, so this bodes well.

You can run campaigns against Nehru, remove him from posters, delete him from textbooks, slander him but you cannot remove him from the world’s consciousness. Pettiness cannot dismantle a statesman.

I can confirm that Prof Francesca Orsini, scholar of Hindi at SOAS, London University, has been stopped from entering India tonight even though she has a valid 5 year e-visa. She arrived from Hong Kong in Delhi and was told she would not be allowed in. https://t.co/Zww2uwrgVh

Gaza city now

[Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor]

A powerful piece by Smt Sonia Gandhi ji today urges India to live up to its moral convictions on Palestine.
As a well-wisher of Israel myself, and one who strongly defends its right to live in security & to repel terrorists, I agree with her view that India's ethical and civilisational heritage demands that we stand up for justice for the innocent victims of the unfolding horror in Gaza.

Israel is a proven friend of India. But as a friend, we must tell them the truth: this carnage has already gone too far for too long. Israel must stop its merciless campaign.

@ananthkrishnan That's quite right...

In this piece in @the_hindu today I argue how India’s strategic arc must bend towards the Indo-Pacific, as a continental power with natural maritime dominance given by its unique geography, leaving any Pakistan equations behind.

Our laws identify 7305 crimes by citizens; you can be arrested for milking a cow or buffalo on the street, failing to report the death of an animal within three hours, removing corpses by unprescribed routes, neglecting to provide proper exercise to a pet dog, distributing feeding bottles even to a mother who cannot breastfeed, and for simply storing e-cigarettes. Manish and Rohini make a joint case in the @IndianExpress for the next Jan Vishwas finding the madhyam marg between trusting and punishing citizens👇

Replace that Russian with Kunal Kamra and you get a system where the “freedom of speech and expression” is guaranteed but not what happens to you after you exercise that freedom! 😛
