Most of our newspapers have a weird autocorrect.

It changes "delimitation" to "women".

[Nitin Sethi @nit_set]

Many Indian newspapers have long prospered by not telling what they know or burying it in its pages. Today they lied in screaming headlines right under the masthead on their page 1. Headlines for page 1 are approved specifically by the top editors of the news org each night.

The Hindu has the most accurate headline on its front page. This is what it was.

@manuvichar First time since 1990 that a constitutional amendment Bill was defeated.

For - 298
Against - 230

The Constitutional Amendment to bring in delimitation by the backdoor in the name of women’s reservation stands defeated.

The opposition held its nerve, and called the bluff of Modi-Shah.

Historic defeat for the Modi government! 🔥

#WATCH | Delhi | A resident of Delhi, Neha, says, "We have only one issue, and that's clean air. This problem has been going on for years, but no action is being taken. It's a violation of our constitutional rights... We've been struggling with this for 10 years... No one cares about the health and rights of citizens... I don't understand what we're waiting for, and why we're not taking action... Peaceful protests are going on here, but people are being dragged and detained into buses... This isn't a political matters. It's about clean air..."

The Election Commission today removed the digital machine-readable Bihar draft voter lists from its website which were uploaded on Aug 1. They have been replaced with their scanned, non-machine-readable versions that makes scrutiny harder.

Only one leading national newspaper found Rahul Gandhi’s findings on voter fraud to be worthy of being front page lead.

This wasn’t even a late night presser.

When the Supreme Court caught him out but did not punish him, others got even more emboldened.

[Swapnil @Brahmonaut]

Remember the Ashoka professor who had to resign after publishing a paper on possible election rigging? The same one vilified for asking uncomfortable questions?
Today’s press conference just proved him right.

#Dhadak2, from @DharmaMovies does something few mainstream Hindi films dare to do.

With imagery of Ambedkar, Buddha, and the Jai Bhim slogan, it tells the story of a Dalit protagonist without apology or dilution.

I hope this action is not stayed by a higher court

[Rana Ayyub @RanaAyyub]

Why is this not a headline, especially in the wake of the devastating Air India crash

Demanding protection of life through peace and not war is so rational that it requires courage.

[Vasundhara Sirnate @vsirnate]

The Indian govt is making a mistake by not briefing the country every few hours. This is the gap in which speculation and disinformation flourishes against the interests of the country.

Don’t drip feed information to journalists through anonymous sources. Have regular press briefings and issue proper releases outlining the latest information. You’re creating a lot of speculation by being tight-lipped about damages sustained.

How should we grieve Pahalgam, asks Supreme Court lawyer, Shahrukh Alam, raising other more urgent questions about belonging and identity in hyper-nationalist times.

[The Wire @thewire_in]

Caste Census Move Is a Win For Opposition, Forces Modi Govt to Support Its Key Demand

And the exposure of the government’s lapses in Pahalgam may have prodded it to make the announcement as a deflectional move. | @AjoyAshirwad✍️

Are they doing this in the name of religion ?
