If #Aurangzeb can still trouble your minds and hearts 300 years after his death, you need to wake up. A modern India cannot be built upon ancient animosities. Our children and Grand Children deserve better.
A lot of folks have been reaching out, asking me to share stories behind the paywall with them. I get it—students are curious, and I actually find it encouraging that some have bought subscriptions just to read it. But honestly, it’s surprising when founders of established companies, VCs, and investors make the same ask.
If you value good journalism, at least pay for it. I’m not some VC-funded media startup; I’m doing this solo, grinding day in and day out. The least you can do is respect that effort. I’m not even going to get into the PDFs being passed around, but please, don’t ask me to send this story for free. I’ve got a home to keep, bills to pay, and a family to support.
Support independent journalism—it’s worth it.
Kamindu Mendis joins an elite club! 💫
Reaching 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ Test runs in just his 13th innings, he now shares this incredible feat with the legendary Don Bradman. 🤩
A phenomenal feat, making him the third-fastest ever and the quickest since 1949! What a star!

When we think about gravity as a concept, we tend to go with our thoughts to Isaac Newton and his apple, but an idea of gravity as attractive force, was first suggested by Indian astronomer Brahmagupta in the year 628 CE. He called it "gurutvākarṣaṇ"
When hate speech/crime aren’t spoken against and humanitarian values not imparted in schools and homes, this is the society you get.
Incredibly, children in the video don’t find this wrong because this is the default they’ve grown up with.
Not the values I’ll teach my kid.
Something I love about Oslo: This city is incredibly quiet.
Lots of people are walking/biking/scooting. And most vehicles are electric, while speed limits are typically 30 km/hr (19 mph), so engine/tire noise is negligible.
A reminder that cities aren't loud; *cars* are loud.
As reported by @CA_DWR, Lake Oroville in California has reached full capacity, thanks to winter storms and snowmelt.

The symbolic anthem “We Shall Overcome” reverberated the air filled with tears and fears. All Manipur Kuki-Zo Tribal women from Delhi and NCR, once again showed the way to a peaceful and immaculate march this afternoon, at Jantar Mantar.

This is exactly what sends millions into panic. You, the Governor, said you promise that the bill would be legal tender. Do that! Or at least provide clear messaging.
This is what we get for politicising our lives.
“I can’t give a speculative answer as to what will happen after Sept. 30,” says the RBI governor on the question of whether the notes will remain legal tender beyond the exchange/deposit deadline. In other words, the liability issuer is forcing asset holders to speculate. (6/n)
