Sweet and short storms mark Delhi in summery May. They are special because they give us brief respite from the heat.

Banker KV Kamath warns that the era of white collar job-led-growth is ending. In its place, there will be skill-led “blue jumpsuit” kind of jobs!

Madam Chief Minister @gupta_rekha, you won applause from me and other motor car owners when you went to the Supreme Court and won relaxation of the absurd and irrational 15 year retirement rule for petrol motor cars.

The court agreed that enforcement of a stringent PUC test is what is needed rather than the eco -unfriendly scrapping of cars that have plenty of serviceable life left in them and the consequent (and often unaffordable) purchase of a new car.

But more than a year later, your government and RTO have yet to implement this! My Sept 2011 Hindustan Motors Ambassador has its registration up to Sept 2026 and the RTO refuses to re-register it beyond that. “Ji haan, Court ka aadesh to aaya parantu aadarneeya CM Madam ke yahan se koi notification nahin jaari kiya gaya hai”.l, I was told.

Please follow through on your own promise, Madam CM! It is not enough to merely relax the norms on NOCs to enable Dilliwallas to re-register a 15 year old vehicle in another state. We need to be able to re-register these PUC-compliant motor cars — to which we are deeply attached — in Delhi itself. @drpankajbjp

India's education system, however weak and fragile, is being destroyed in front of our eyes. This will have enormous consequences in the future, as Pakistan experienced even after Zia was dead.

Beginning to suspect that the Western obsession with best books of the century (not new, but certainly more pressing and frequent) is driven by anxieties over imperial decline.

Cockroaches or khan market gang — the aim is the same, objectifying and vilifying civil society.

CJI Surya Kant says there are "parasites" attacking the system.

"There are youngsters like cockroaches, who don't get any employment and don't have any place in the profession. Some of them become media, some of them become social media, some of them become RTI activists, some of them become other activists, and they start attacking everyone." - CJI.
