One of our greatest ever, signing off.

This is a very disturbing incident and deserve not only condemnation but strict action against the perpetrator. Few years ago, I read a book ‘Adivasi Will Not Dance’. There is a chapter mentioning, sexual exploitation of a minor girl by an RPF personnel at railway station.

In the incident, an RPF personnel sexually exploit a minor girl in exchange of ₹50 and two bread pakodas. Seeing women as a commodity and the portrayal for gazing by the entertainment industry is a matter of grave concern. Sometime back, we all saw indecent remarks at IGT.

I visited the southernmost tip of India.
I stood at Indira Point. I walked under trees that have stood for centuries. I dove into coral reefs among the most vibrant on earth.
And I sat with the people who live there. Tribal communities, whose land is being taken away by violating the Forest Rights Act. Settlers, many of them former soldiers, placed on these islands by the Indian government, who aren’t getting fair compensation.
The Modi government and BJP tells you Great Nicobar Project is about defence. It is not.
Expand INS Baaz - we will back the government fully. The Navy has been asking for expansion for five years - it has been ignored.
They tell you it is about a transhipment port. It is not. India is already building one in Kerala, which is on the mainland.
What it actually is: 1.5 crore trees felled. Coral reefs erased from official maps. Soldiers and tribals displaced - so one businessman can build hotels and casinos on India’s most irreplaceable ecological land.
Every young Indian I have spoken to understands this. You know that no amount of profit is worth destroying what can never be recovered.
I stand for ecologically balanced development. These islands can be the most extraordinary sustainable destination the world has ever seen. That is the India worth fighting for.

Check out the incredible final moments of Praggnanandhaa taking down World no.1 Magnus Carlsen with the Black pieces in Round 8 of Norway Chess 2026!
With this win, Pragg becomes the first Indian (and possibly in the world) player who defeated Magnus Carlsen in Classical Chess twice in the same tournament! What a moment for Indian Chess.
This sketch has full potential to give competition to the OG painting by Majnu Bhai.
CM Samrat Choudhary seems to be surprised after receiving the sketch. Mr. Shrivastava needs to be given credit for having the courage to give the sketch. @samrat4bjp#BJP#SamratChoudhary#Bihar
INDIA’S JUDICIARY: Every 3rd High Court Judge is an “Uncle”
This 2010 exposé on Punjab & Haryana High Court is damning proof of deep-rooted nepotism and shameless family favoritism.
Sons, nephews, wives, brothers, sisters & in-laws — all practicing as advocates in the SAME court where their relative sits as a Judge.
A list of 16 such “Uncle Judges” was officially forwarded to the Union Law Ministry.
Just look at this table. Clear, blatant conflict of interest. How the can justice be delivered fairly when family members argue cases before their own “Uncle”?
The Law Commission and Bar Council flagged this years ago. Nothing changed.
This uncle culture has destroyed public faith in the judiciary. Merit is dead. Nepotism rules.
We need ruthless reforms NOW:
- Ban close relatives from practicing in the same court
- Mandatory public declaration of family links
- Strict penalties for violations
Enough is enough. The temple of justice has become a family business.
