Report card of #OmBirla as #Speaker (2019-24):

1. During his tenure, some people breached #Parliament security & entered #LokSabha raising slogans. When Opposition MPs demanded debate on it, he didn't permit, instead 99 Opposition MPs got suspended for protesting against it!

It was a real honor to work with this group of scholars on:

The Labor of Climate #Adaptation

Much of the labor of adaptation to climate change is under-, unpaid, or unfree.

Invisibility of this labor should become a key concern for climate #justice

#Thread: We @reporters_co are releasing the #ModifiedRice papers. These show how the Union gov't forced fortified rice upon 80 cr Indians. Despite failed pilots and internal red flags over health risks. Corporate interests played from the back.

Great piece about the colonial war against ponds, swamps and wetlands - and the disastrous long term consequences. Must read. https://t.co/4MawToXBKu

[The Cultural Tutor @culturaltutor]

And this isn't only about art.

The story of Vincent van Gogh's stylistic evolution is the story of how profoundly we are shaped by what we consume and the people we spend time with.

Something to ponder in the choices we make every day about those things...

[Nakul @heblenakul]

@Lenskart_com 's new employee policy is discriminatory and possibly illegal. Except for the store manager all other employees are barred from using their phones. Which means families cannot reach an employee in an emergency. What gives?
@peyushbansal This has to be reversed.

1/n: Last year, I assigned a meme-making assignment to my evo bio course students. One suggestion was from @Torsay who recommended a .gif making assignment. So, @raxitdaves and I took the cue! We asked our 181 registered students (phew!!) to make a course-related .gif. #evobio

Landless agricultural labourers from Nadia, WB are exiting agriculture due to low wages and climate variabilities. While urban jobs offer stable income and momentary reprieve from climate-risk areas, they continue to be trapped by expenses, lack of upward mobility in the city

At @azimpremjiuniv Library we have an interesting display of matchboxes from different places collected by the late PM Bhargava, who was an eminent scientist. The collection is pretty interesting, with a few that are recognisable and many of them are not. (1)

EWS is a misnomer; it's reservation for forward castes. The eligibility cut-off of annual income of 8 lakhs i.e. Rs. about 67,000/- a month, makes a mockery of the immense poverty of oppressed communities caused by the historical injustice of caste.

[President of Zimbabwe @edmnangagwa]

What a win for Zimbabwe! Congratulations to the Chevrons.
