In "No Laphing Matter", Nangsel Sherpa and I took to the streets in Delhi and Darjeeling to write about eating, remembering and discovering Laphing spatially.
Extremely thankful to @Raykris1 for his insights !
From our mini-series on food in #Southasia, 'Ways of eating': Nangsel Sherpa and @shriyasingh29 on the Tibetan dish laphing and its recent popularity across the region. https://t.co/V2VBoRsBK1
On the occasion of International Women’s Day, we celebrate the invaluable contributions of our female staff at the Embassy and Consulate General in Mumbai, who play a critical role in the functions of the 🇮🇪 mission in 🇮🇳.
#WATCH | #UnionBudget2025 | Shiromani Akali Dal MP Harsimrat Kaur Badal says, "Look at the names of the states - Bihar, which is going to elections. Only Bihar, Bihar, Bihar. There was no mention of Punjab. Farmers are sitting in protest for the past 4 years over legal guarantee for MSP. What did they announce for farmers? Makhana Board. This was an anti-farmer Budget. Farmers who are fighting for their rights were not heard, this is sad..."
Welcome to #BiharBudget25 -- airports, makhana, minerals and what not-- winning elections is important - who cares about national GDP. Will Bihar also be encouraged to increase fertility levels with higher subsidies!
Received very warm welcome from MP for Wayanad Ms @priyankagandhi this morning in New Delhi! Congratulated her on her recent electoral success.
Spoke about strong historical ties between 🇮🇪 and 🇮🇳 and the Embassy’s ambitions for the future.
A dream come true ! When I wrote for @Himalistan, I could not have imagined meeting the Southasianist force behind it, @KanakManiDixit.
Truly amazed by the person he is and his vision. Still thanking my stars 🌟
