Any post that I retweet here doesn't imply that I consider it to be true or moral, I am here just to observe and collect whatever I consider relevant, that necessarily doesn't mean that i consider those posts correct.

@Prakhar81420407 Hmm this is positive

[Martanda @perplexxed13]

@Prakhar81420407 I disagree ! Once you give reservations there is no way to step back no amount of urbanisation stops it.

[Martanda @perplexxed13]

@Prakhar81420407 Sir look at the principles that all political parties either explicitly or implicitly believe in that is the principle of seats according to the proportion in population and sooner or later they all are hell bent on increasing reservation.

Yesterday, @IndianExpress reported an unprecedented rupture inside the Election Commission: TWO of its three members objecting on record, 14 times in 10 months, to decisions taken without their knowledge.

Today, the second part of our investigation looks at the concern Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi flagged most often: Who really controls our electoral rolls?

We followed that question to Goa, where we found something deeply concerning.

Stay with me....

#ExpressInvestigation | SIR, which began in Bihar in June 2025, an otherwise routine clean-up of the rolls, has struck more than 13 crore names off the draft voter rolls in 30 States and Union Territories. This has put the Election Commission at the centre of intense public debate over its role in deciding who gets to vote — and who doesn’t.

An investigation by The Indian Express reveals that questions were raised on these very issues within the three-member Election Commission itself, time and again through much of this same period. By two of the three Election Commissioners, Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi, no less.

The Election Commission of India is under fire like never before.

The SIR has struck 13 crore names off draft rolls, putting the EC at the centre of intense public debate over its role in deciding who gets to vote — and who doesn’t.

HOWEVER, what nobody knew: through that same period, some of the sharpest questions were being asked from inside.

Out today, after months of work. Our #ExpressInvestigation 🧵

The territory of adhikāra is a debated one. There is Āśādhara Bhaṭṭa (18th century) who thinks that reciting of Viṣṇusahasranāma by Śūdras is wrong. Then there is Narasiṃha Vājapeyin (17th century) who thinks that such reciting is right.

Let's stop the misuse of the SC/ST Act at IITs -- and everywhere in India

Let's stand in solidarity with Prof Suryanarayana Doolla.

My appeal to all fellow IITians and faculty members of all IITs.

did my https://t.co/zANOEvvHvH at IIT Bombay and my PhD at IIT Delhi. I've been a professor for 14 years now. In 22 years of watching the IIT/IIIT system closely, I have never once witnessed a teacher discriminate against a student on the basis of caste.

During my https://t.co/zANOEvvHvH, most of us had no idea what caste our batchmates belonged to. Many of my close friends were SC/ST. We never discussed it. It never entered any conversation or decision. Not once. Our exposure to the humanities department was limited, though — the term "Brahmanical patriarchy" didn't even exist back then.

As a teacher, I don't ask a student's name before solving their doubt. Often I don't know their name at all — some of my classes have 300+ students. We treat them all the same. So does every colleague I know. So did every professor who taught me.

Social media has now filled vulnerable students' heads with a lot of manufactured grievance about caste discrimination that, in my experience, doesn't exist.
