@HertzUK I have sent you a personal message but your twitter account only allows for verified users. This was a Hertz 24/7 rental

[Sakshi Sharda @SSharda0812]

@HertzUK we have been trying to start a rental van for which we paid upfront for the last 5 hours. We have at this time spent our moving day trying to get a van, changed two locations, spent 4 hours on your customer support helpline- all to no avail. Worst service!!!!

My new article has been published in the Asian Journal of Law and Society, where I analyse legal and extralegal policing practices in Uttar Pradesh during the 2019 protests against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, foregrounding the "unmaking" of victims. https://t.co/DIyuy67M4C

@boredieu Are you referring to Marxism-Leninism when you say ML? In that case, I must note that my heart was lost to the anarchists a while ago, so when I start my next blog, it will probably be an anarchist critique of constitutionalism. 😬

Are books the new fashion accessory?
Talking about books has become the new ‘cool’. But what has accompanied this trend is a culture of consumption tethered around books.

What to do when you #read a book that your supervisor had been asking you to read for a year, and it debunks the basic assumptions of your thesis reading. #screwed

Globally our news cycle has created the crisis of the biggest crisis. Every issue, every systemic violence, every instance of hunger, famine or disease competes to be the biggest crisis. It is high time we put an end to this, 1 or 1000 is a failure of the system!

Book of the Day is ‘So you’ve been Publicly Shamed’ by Jon Ronson. Read the book for interesting stories of people who have been canceled on social media and tangible consequence they have suffered…Is public shaming only creating thick skins? #botd #booktrend

Why are we as a people so obsessed with the desire to return? Why are we sure that the feeling of rootedness that we are searching exists in the past!

So excited to begin sharing my PhD work on political emotions and family courtrooms in India at the @BASASofficial 2024 conference at @KingsCollegeLon. I got great inputs from the session on Law and Society.

The general election of 2024 is a wondrous moment. The air of despondency, the suffocating shadow of authoritarianism, and the nauseous winds of communalism have, at least for the moment, lifted.
