#India: We are concerned by reports of mass detentions of demonstrators, protest leaders, members of civil society organisations, lawyers and journalists, before and during todayโs large-scale demonstrations in Delhi.
We call on the authorities to ensure that the right to peaceful assembly is fully respected and fulfilled.

Dear Prime Minister Ambani,
Please accept my humble apologies for not realizing that you are the real boss of India.
Naturally, you would prefer to maintain your monopolistic exploitation of the great people of India, but would you nonetheless consider allowing Starlink to compete?
There are many areas of India, as there are in all countries, with no Internet access, which denies children the opportunity for education and for small businesses the opportunity to sell their goods to a global market. Starlink would change their lives for the better.
Thank you ๐
Yesterday, @IndianExpress reported an unprecedented rupture inside the Election Commission: TWO of its three members objecting on record, 14 times in 10 months, to decisions taken without their knowledge.
Today, the second part of our investigation looks at the concern Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi flagged most often: Who really controls our electoral rolls?
We followed that question to Goa, where we found something deeply concerning.
Stay with me....

The Election Commission of India is under fire like never before.
The SIR has struck 13 crore names off draft rolls, putting the EC at the centre of intense public debate over its role in deciding who gets to vote โ and who doesnโt.
HOWEVER, what nobody knew: through that same period, some of the sharpest questions were being asked from inside.
Out today, after months of work. Our #ExpressInvestigation ๐งต

๐ฌ๐ง Tommy Robinson vision for the UK: โI would stop Islam. End foreign funding.
Take every migrant out of the hotels and send them back tomorrow by the military. Itโs time for many Muslims to go home.
This is our home.โ
๐ฌ๐ง Tommy Robinson showing in big screen Keir Starmer's hypocrisy when he said "Britain is the land of Free Speech,"and in the same screen some of the banned people in UK for only speech reasons.
Starmer is not well known for keeping his word.
Stopping wars abroad but silence at home? @narendramodi ji, Manipur is burning & civilians are dying in rocket attacks. Why the step-motherly treatment? Is Manipur not India? @BJP4India, speak a single word! The nation is watching your indifference. ๐๐ฎ๐ณ #ManipurViolence#Modi
Whatever the mainstream media wants you to believe about Elon, this is the truth: he's changing people's lives for the better.
Liv Perrotto was 15 years old. Her biggest dream was to meet Elon.
She had 8 questions ready. She got the chance to speak with him, but was too tired to continue. She passed away from cancer days later.
Elon answered all 8 of her questions anyway.
He confirmed he's visited Japan multiple times, including Kyoto and teamLab. He shared what anime has inspired him. He showed up for a girl who never got to hear his voice again.
Her mother shared the exchange publicly.
This is the part they won't cover.
