Indo-German Media Network at the @GermanyinIndia in Delhi: During Raisina Dialogue, we had a productive discussion on narratives, blind spots & how 🇮🇳 & 🇩🇪 perceive each other. The exchange brought together media professionals to reflect on strengthening bilateral understanding.
There is no clarity on who has the upper hand in the actual war but going online from a different part of the globe, it is interesting to see how Pakistan is able to dominate the narrative. India that can deploy millions of trolls to counter the slightest of insults...
@GermanEmbassy, your guidance states that UK e-visas/BRP share codes are not accepted at German airports, making transit visas necessary for Indians, while @IATA states that evisas are acceptable. Can you clarify?

Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti: 1143-1236

Hasina is in exile, her party leaders are hiding, party offices stormed; the CJ was forced out, VCs are forced to leave; journalists are being arrested, diplomatic passports are cancelled and minority communities are directly targeted.

In this report @mariannaspring mentions how the site purchased an extant monetized YT channel and changed its name and purpose, which struck me as oddly similar to what Elon Musk did with Twitter.

The PSC aspirants who drowned in Delhi, the protestors in Dhaka, the immigrants at the borders are all points on the downward slope of the graph on hope for the future.
A painful look into where India is going wrong with employment generation as the techno-service industry plateaus. The Chinese visa situation is only the prologue. Read on to see how we failed the current under-20s.

In #TamilNadu, BJP has so far eaten into the DMK vote share while AIADMK has not been affected much. Haven't converted a seat even with 7% gain though #ElectionsResults
A brilliant piece by @vargheseKgeorge ! How elitism among the left ruined it for the grounded secularists of India, pushing them further away from the Constitution and into the hands of Hindutvawadis.
