উন্নয়নের সমতাকে জাতির পরিচিতি হিসেবে দেখার ���ু-অভ্যাস ফিরিয়ে আনতে পারলে হিন্দুত্ববাদী জাতীয়তার জমি খানিক হলেও কেড়ে নেওয়া যাবে। দেশকে ভালবাসা মানেই যে পড়শি দেশের সর্বনাশের স্বপ্ন দেখা নয়, বরং দেশের আনাচেকানাচে উন্নয়ন পৌঁছে দেওয়া|

There are politicians whose political survival depends on the masses being poorly educated. For any nation where such politicians come to power, the system of mass education is bound to be in peril.

The last time Mohun Bagan conceded three goals in first 21 minutes of a match was when #IndianFootball took serious notice of Jeje Lalpekhlua, who scored a hat-trick that evening. It was Pailan Arrows 5-4 Mohun Bagan, the last match of their '10-11 I-League campaign. #CCFCMB

Out of all the teams that have played ISL & I-League this decade (total 149 if you count teams once per season), Chennaiyin finish with second worst home record: 0.56 points per match. Worst? Old-timers can easily guess: HAL won 1 point from 13 matches in '11-12. #CHEJAM

What's the first line of the book you're currently reading?

[Atanu Mitra @Atanu00]

Been told that this is the first time Robin Singh has scored goals in either half of a league match after playing almost 125 games over 9 seasons. Third brace for him, all coming under British coaches (first two under Trevor Morgan).

Nobel prize winner Angus Deaton‘s (with Kozel) tribute to Indian data: “NSSO surveys, pioneered by Mahalanobis in the 1940s & 1950s, were the world’s first...household surveys to apply the principles of random sampling” Sad this heritage is being damaged by suppressing NSSO data.
