IPL teams investing and building stadiums outside India, and here, in-stadia fan-experience remains terrible. The government, meanwhile, keeps wasting tax payer money on 100,000 seater white elephants.

An Assamese Muslim man has been declared a foreigner despite producing 15 documents, including the 1951 NRC, decades of electoral records, Aadhaar, voter ID, PAN and even a passport.

When the State’s own documents are treated as insufficient, citizenship is reduced to an arbitrary exercise. A system that keeps shifting the goalposts erodes faith in the rule of law and places ordinary citizens especially from minority community in perpetual fear.

Lebanese child refuses to play against Israeli opponents at chess championship in protest against Israel's destruction of homes and the killing of Lebanese children, a decision that led to automatic loss.

If governments can learn from an 8-year old girl…

Zeynep Sonmez says tournament organizers ban her from wearing Palestine-supporting pin

“I used to wear a pin. Tournaments no longer allow me to wear it. We had a discussion with the organizers because the Ukrainian flag is allowed but Palestine is not. They ultimately told us they definitely would not allow it ... I can use the vibration dampener and they can't object to that. That's why I put the watermelon symbol on my racket”

12 हजार करोड़ रुपए से बने वर्ल्ड क्लास दिल्ली–देहरादून एक्सप्रेस वे को देख लीजिए। बरसाती सीजन शुरू होते ही गड्ढे बन गए हैं। गाड़ियों को नुकसान पहुंच रहा है। इसी 14 अप्रैल को PM नरेंद्र मोदी ने उदघाटन किया था।

A bunch of heartless thugs. No one with a brain or a conscience should ever vote for them.

Just a reminder that Fred Hampton is younger than Donald Trump.

What a different future America could have had.

Israel fabricated videos of Hamas tunnels. Well I never.

Holy shit.

Maradona in 2018 on the day the World Cup 2026 was awarded to USA, Mexico and Canada, goes on saying:

“They will do 4 quarters of the game instead of two halves so to put commercials, you’ll see”

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

The CPJ decision to functionally change the definition of journalist - while our news industry in the U.S. is filled with former IDF soldiers covering the occupation & genocide they helped build and justify, including Barak Ravid who was in the IDF reserves until March 2023 - is not only indicative of the racism under which the entire western journalism order functions but also of the extent of the complicity of this industry in the slaughter of Palestinian journalists.

A dark, shameful day and proof that no, things are not getting “better” - the whole project is to erase and minimize these crimes until everyone forgets and moves on.

Palestinian footballer Salim Al Ashqar, 31, was killed yesterday by Israeli army fire in southern Gaza.

He had married five months earlier and was expecting his first child. He was the only son among seven sisters.

The number of athletes killed since the start of the Israeli genocide in Gaza has now risen to 1,009.

Brilliant investigation by @sukanyashantha. Worth asking whether we as a society are just doing the death penalty in slow motion when we subject people in prisons to death by medical neglect.

The "award" was created 3 days before Modi’s visit lmao

[Cenk Uygur @cenkuygur]

Here is Netanyahu saying from the river to the sea. I guarantee you American media will never report on it. They said it was genocidal when Palestinians said it, even though Palestinian version is about freedom. Netanyahu version is about erasing Palestine - actually genocidal.

[वरुण 🇮🇳 @varungrover]

Limited damage, as per an upcoming Bollywood film.

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

Use of the word "genocide" in first 30 days of conflict on CNN and MSNBC, Ukraine vs. Gaza.

The BJP is dragging us into Medieval times with its rabid Islamophobia and hunger for complete and total power and we are all just here chilling like its a normal Tuesday

[Sushant Singh @SushantSin]

If this was put in a Hindi film or a web series, the censor board would have definitely rejected it. But they can't censor real life yet. As in the Ayodhya temple theft.
