Back to cities, I’ve always liked this cartoon about how much space we allocate for cars instead of people.

Technology should serve us, but sometimes, it feels like we forget that and start serving technology.

@NLR100 Hi @NLR100 is there a free version of the article available online ?

[Aiman Singh Kler @aimankler]

@Keir_Starmer @magyarpeterMP On this day, on 13 April 1919, hundreds of unarmed Indians were killed at Jallianwala Bagh by troops of the British Indian Army under General Dyer. @Keir_Starmer, you must must at least acknowledge this day; remembering the lives lost. Silence does no justice to history.

Great going, access to correct day is step 1. How do we go about Step 2? a.k.a ensuring people in charge of the govt are held accountable and put in place effective measures to combat the pollution crisis ?

[Nithin Kamath @Nithin0dha]

Good air, clean water, and food are fundamental to a good life. In that sense, they should be treated as fundamental rights.

But air quality has been steadily degrading, and it's not really part of the mainstream conversation. That needs to change. Right now, if you look at the site (link in comments), everything looks green. But as we get closer to the end of the year, things will start looking much worse.

Solving air pollution is hard, but the first step is simple: people need to know what they're breathing.

Right now, that's not possible. India does collect air quality data, but it's either locked away, too broad to tell you anything about your locality, or just not published at all. There's no single place a citizen can go to get a clear, neighbourhood-level picture.

So we set out to fix that.

Today, we're launching an open, pan-India air quality platform, built in partnership with leading organisations in the field. The goal: give citizens, schools, local governments, and communities direct access to the data that affects their daily lives.

At @RainmatterOrg , we've been committed to keeping this conversation alive, and this platform is our attempt at making that happen. All the data on the site is free and open, so others can build on top of it.

So as to make a landfill disappear, and pretend that it’s governance, legacy and non legacy waste is dumped in the ecologically sensitive zone of the Yamuna River bed. And then we complain that why is our water contaminated.

Step 1- Delhi’s ₹22,000 crore supposed “Green Budget” to tackle the Delhi pollution crisis

[Sidharth Luthra @Luthra_Sidharth]

India’s focus on vehicle-first urban planning, has normalized a model where pedestrians have no pavements to walk on and are unsafe.
Inadequate public parking spaces, poor urban planning, choosing flyovers over footpaths adds to tge mess.
Time to reimagine our towns and cities. Promote walking (even in summer) and incentivize cycling as an environmental imperative.

[Aiman Singh Kler @aimankler]

@fuzzysheikh364 plz retweet to draw attention to this sham of a green budget. Also mark my words the AQI is all set to hit hazardous levels this coming winter yet again. Winter is coming

[Aiman Singh Kler @aimankler]

Delhi’s “green budget” allots 504 crore on sprinklers and smog guns. That’s optics. Real change means cutting pollution at source ie vehicles, construction, industry, and stubble. Tragic that Delhi will still chokes on the same pollution crisis. #delhipollutioncrisis

[The Hindu @the_hindu]

Watch | Delhi Chief Minister and Finance Minister Rekha Gupta has presented a ₹1.03 lakh crore Budget for 2026-27, describing it as a “green budget” under the triple-engine government.

Just tragic that the Delhi government still can’t get a grip on the pollution crisis. year after year, the same pollution emergency, the same half-measures. @gupta_rekha @mssirsa @BJP4Delhi @Delhi_Pollution #DelhiAir #delhipollution

Gender identity is not for the state to certify, it’s for the individual to determine #TransRightsIndia

[The Hindu @the_hindu]

Explained | How is the government proposing to alter the definition of “transgender person”? Why has it argued for the omission of the right to “self-perceived gender identity”?

The emerging energy crisis is sending us back to basics. Will we recalibrate, rethink sourcing and alternatives while optimizing our energy use? Or just go back to being an oil based energy economy as things settle and/or alternative paths to access oil/gas appear.

But even with the Supreme Leader dead—and with at least 150 aircraft and drones, more than a dozen destroyers, and two aircraft carriers at his disposal—he may find it difficult to achieve his ultimate goals.
