Pleasure to discuss India’s G20 Presidency, India-US partnership, and global development with US Ambassador Eric Garcetti @USAmbIndia and Rudra Chaudhuri @Rudra_81 at the #GlobalTechSummit organized by @CarnegieIndia .
What exactly is happening in Manipur? There are broadly two factors that led to dormant anger manifesting in violence in the state that has mostly left behind its insurgency-tainted past.

CJI DY Chandrachud: So you're saying, the state cannot discriminate against an individual on the basis of a characteristic over which a person has no control.

A close look at how exit polls performed in #AssemblyElections2022.
Chanakya on News24 shone in Punjab. P-MARQ on Republic was awful in most places. But overall, below average vote share predictions and even worse conversion to seats. @newslaundry

Tamanna walked for 4 hours in sub-zero temperatures to get out of #Kharkhiv yesterday. Now in Pisochyn, she is unsure about her next move.
While she says she's safe there, she is still waiting for a response from the embassy.
'I don’t understand how they are glorifying it like this. I don’t understand how they have no empathy for our plight.'
Amid opposition criticism, PM Modi credited India’s ‘rising power’ for the evacuation programme.

Tapan, 23, in Sumy said, “I tried to get out earlier. I even had my flight booked. But I am still here. I came here to fulfill a dream. It is simple – the only reason I am still here is because of the Indian government and now they need to get me out. I beg them, get me out.”
"They started firing their guns to scare us," said Tamanna, a student at #Kharkiv National Medical University.
While there were officials from the Indian embassy at the railway station, she said, there was “nothing” they could do.
