Dehradun : A young student from Tripura passed away after being admitted to a Uttarakhand hospital for several weeks following a violent attack. The deceased, identified as Anjel Chakma, was allegedly brutally stabbed by a group of unidentified assailants when he and his brother protested against racial slurs hurled at them. According to Anjel Chakma’s younger brother Michael Chakma, a group of unidentified miscreants in an inebriated condition began harassing the brothers purely based on their appearance. Racial slurs such as ‘Nepali’, ‘Chinese’, ‘Chinki’, and ‘momos’ were shouted at them. Police have reportedly arrested five persons in connection with the case so far. The arrested individuals have been identified as Avinash Negi, Shaurya Rajput, Suraj Khawas, Ayush Badoni, and Sumit.

I have been thinking about samosas for the last week & here is a thread about them. For starters the Samosa comes from West Asia and was originally meat wrapped in a dough cone and fried - the sambusak! The only truly veg versions are all Indian! #Samosa#Sambusak#PunjabiSamosa
Rugs are a significant part of Muslim culture. Used for prayer, ornamentation & decoration, they are often collected as family heirlooms, & passed down from generation to generation.

War of memes: why Z-war won't end with peace
Some Western analysts unfamiliar with Eastern European cultural context perceive Z-war as an accident. They presume that Russian invasion results from some sort of "misunderstanding" or mistake which can be resolved via negotiations🧵

As we mourn the #MahatmaGandhi’s death, #assassinated on this day in 1948, it is worth recalling the duplicity that surrounds the tributes paid by people who allow his assassin #NathuramGodse to be glorified https://t.co/pQCIoe0vW4
