What makes a protester with alleged "criminal antecedents" less qualified for exercising their democratic right to protest? Amit Shah has criminal antecedents and he is our Home Minister.

“I said, ‘Sir, I have been shot.’ But they did not stop. They just kept beating us continuously.”

Even bystanders in Siwan were hit by Bihar police bullets. The horror didn’t end there.

Remember the truck full of stones that appeared near the CJP protest site in Jantar Mantar?

@ImAvdheshkumar traced the vehicle with its registration number. It was not a stray truck: the Delhi Police had seized it four days earlier

We are facing the same problem in Bihar.

While Aman could use the Supreme Court order to secure release in Assam, even with 3 Govt orders and 1 SC order, the jail superintendent tells us the “order is yet to be communicated to him”.

Horrendous cocktail of apathy & bureaucracy.

Despite resignation of Pradhan, more violence occurring at Jantar Mantar. This afternoon fresh assault, including lathi charge and tear gas was unleashed against students by Delhi Police. Look at the visuals.

Question- how come Apex body of Leh Ladakh was allowed by police to meet Wangchuk when even the CJP team is not being allowed? Was Ladakh’s statehood also privately discussed between Nadda and Wangchuk? What are the terms and conditions at which Wangchuk broke his fast?

[Palash @ABiggerSpalash]

When a child commits sui*ide, he gives a final verdict to the world that no one could have helped him - not his parents, not this society, not the system. I cannot imagine a more painful feeling that a human, let alone a child, can go through.

At least a dozen children experienced that godawful pain before they ended their lives. There was only one humane response: unconditional apology.

But here, this cretin interviews the topper so the parents of those unlucky kids know that their 16-year olds were total losers to have taken their own lives.

Please don’t drag court into civil rights issues and all, how can court do its real work then?

if it looks like autocracy and walks like autocracy and talks like autocracy its probably mother of democracy

RSS claims it doesn’t seek government funds, so it doesn’t need registration.

Our investigation reveals state-owned ONGC has poured over Rs 670 crore into 20 Sangh-linked organisations that run hospitals and schools since 2013.

Dharmendra Pradhan and Hardeep Singh Puri have been Ministers during the time.

when i say i'm tired of importing nonsensical american culture war bullshit... this is also part of it

[Jyoti @runawaybot]

That would be the best-case scenario. And even then, the problem remains: the top journo’s verdict gets repeated for free in virality-friendly formats, while the dodgy methodology stays buried in a paywalled podcast at best or a paywalled superduperlongform essay at worst.

[Jyoti @runawaybot]

From the clip, it looks like Abhinandan takes Mr. Bal’s numbers at face value and frames it primarily as a debate over their significance now.

But in their full podcast, NL team surely makes Mr. Bal reconstruct his own estimate and questions it, right? Right?

Is Satluj a "well-made" movie or "propaganda" for a political cause?

@MnshaP, @AbhinandanSekhr, @Shardool_, joined by @HartoshSinghBal critique the portrayal of Jaswant Singh Khalra and the danger of distorting historical facts.

Two aspects - first, part time work of this sort exists in economies without a large and desperate workforce that can be full time exploited for a fraction of the cost.

Second, people working these jobs(waiters or delivery people) in India are teenagers or young adults but …

[Siddharth @svaradarajan]

Noida's celebrated growth story is fuelled by workers trapped between insecure employment, wage stagnation and missing social protections, a model that depends crucially on the criminalisation of dissent.

This is the fourth and final part of a series of seminal reports by Navsharan Singh, Atul Sood and Rakhi Sehgal that we are very proud to have run.

[Indian Urbanism @IndianUrbanist]

It is worth repeating that this is a protest against higher wages and benefits for the security and other staff employed by the building complex. This is not a story of an evil developer overcharging poor residents.
