An 80-year-old mother is offering to return her son's Shaurya Chakra.
Not in anger at the nation.
In exhaustion.
Assistant Commandant Vivek Saxena fell fighting terrorists in Manipur on 8 January 2003. The country gave him the Shaurya Chakra. The state promised his family land and a memorial. Twenty-two years later, Savitri Saxena is still being sent from office to office. Asked for domicile papers. Asked where she lived before marriage. Asked to keep waiting.
She is 80. She says she no longer has the strength to keep doing the rounds. So she has brought the medal to a grievance camp and said: if this is the honour we give a martyr's mother, take it back.
A son gave his life.
A mother is being asked to prove she belongs.
That should break something in all of us.

इस डॉक्टर ने ज्वाइनिंग के पहले ही दिन नौकरी छोड़ दी। कारण- ऐसे मरीजों को ICU में भर्ती करने का दबाव, जिन्हें चिकित्सकीय रूप से इसकी आवश्यकता नहीं थी।
क्या मरीज अब एक मरीज है, या वह धीरे धीरे पैकेज’और बिल में बदल रहा है ? ICU जीवन बचाने के लिए है या अस्पताल का राजस्व बढ़ाने के लिए ?

“Foreign Algorithms Are Quietly Conditioning the Minds of India's Youth” - Mallika Bajaj
Mallika Bajaj is a digital transformation expert who studies how technology affects the way people learn, behave and think.
Digital transformation architect Mallika Bajaj argues that foreign social media algorithms are engaging in “cognitive warfare” by conditioning Indian youth through an Algorithmic Cognitive Reinforcement Loop (ACRL). Bajaj suggests these platforms prioritize “Four Vs” (Viciousness, Virality, Vulgarity, Violence) over truth, prompting a need for Indian cognitive neural sovereignty and indigenous technology development.

अपने दो मासूम बच्चों का पेट पालने के लिए ट्रेन में सामान बेच रही एक विधवा महिला के साथ जो हुआ, उसने इंसानियत को शर्मसार कर दिया।
@RailMinIndia
बताया जा रहा है कि ट्रेन में सामान बेचकर अपने परिवार का पालन-पोषण करने वाली महिला के साथ कुछ लड़कों ने अभद्र व्यवहार और छेड़छाड़ की। घटना का वीडियो सामने आने के बाद पुलिस आरोपी लड़कों की तलाश कर रही है।

@IS_Netwrk29 But it has nothing to do with using Mobile phone. He could have used walkie talkie to communicate with other players. Btw how using mobile phone help in communicating with other players and team members unless they all are using it. Such a lame excuse in defence.
An Open letter to Indian Media and @MEA
Dear Indian media,
If you can grill India non‑stop on the Vikas Yadav–Pannun case, you can also question the US on what its own citizens are doing near our borders.
This selective courage is exactly why trust is collapsing.
NIA has arrested 7 foreign nationals – 6 Ukrainians and 1 American – who allegedly came to India on valid visas, went to Mizoram, slipped into Myanmar, and sourced drones from Europe for “suspicious activities.”
How is this not a prime‑time story?
Western volunteers – including Americans and British – are openly training and fighting alongside anti‑coup forces in Myanmar.
One American fighter is even planning teams of ex-soldiers from the US, UK, Canada, and Australia to “train” rebels.
And our media has… moved on?
All this is happening right next to India’s northeast.
Myanmar’s instability is not abstract for us – it means:more refugee inflow more arms and drug routes more tensions in Manipur and Mizoram
This is India’s security, not a distant foreign story.
The US lectures the world on “counter‑terrorism” and “rule of law” while its own citizens join armed groups in conflict zones – from Syria to Ukraine to now Myanmar.
Is it not fair to ask:
What oversight does Washington have on its citizens fighting abroad?
So why aren’t Indian journalists asking, on record, at US briefings:Are American citizens involved in training rebels in Myanmar?What steps is the US taking to stop this?How does this square with its global anti‑terror posture?
These are basic, legitimate questions.
This is not about being “anti‑US.”
This is about being pro‑journalism and pro‑India.
If Indian media can amplify every allegation against India, it should also show spine when foreign nationals from powerful countries are linked to conflicts that hit our own borders.
Dear editors and anchors:
Don’t just debate “Indian agencies under global scrutiny.”
Also ask:
Why are American and other Western citizens showing up in Myanmar’s war – and what does that mean for India?
Same standards. Same courage. That’s all.
If you agree, don’t just scroll.
Reply, quote, tag your favourite channels, anchors and reporters.
Force these questions into the news cycle.
India deserves a media that is fearless everywhere – not selectively brave.Jai Hind. 🇮🇳
