Before the video emerged, I spent a week in Manipur tracking down cases of violence against women.
4 women bravely recounted every detail of their brutal assault to me.
Thank you @scroll_in for commissioning this crucial story. It is not an easy read

Before the video of the alleged incident of women being paraded naked and brutally assaulted in #Manipur went viral, the National Commission for Women had been apprised of the same more than a month ago on June 12. | @sreeparna_c

Damoh | Ganga Jamuna School |
Students of Ganga Jamuna School picketed Damoh's District Education Officer SK Neema's office demanding reopening of school.

Hundreds of JP Infra Housing Society members clashed with police while chanting "Jai Shri Ram" at Mira Road, Mumbai, over a Muslim resident named Mohsin Sheikh bringing home a lamb for Eid-ul-Adha.

Police officials said they put up saffron flags, wrote 'Jai Shri Ram' on the walls, damaged CCTV cameras installed at the site.
They also misbehaved with govt officials when asked not to take the law into their hands.

This is pathetic & reeks of communal mindset. The notice doesn’t even name the festival as Eid al Azha, one of the two major Muslim festival. Will the administration dare to issue the same notice for major Hindu festivals ?
What kind of world are we living in ?

Without semblance of peace expecting staff to feel safe and return is mockery of their plight. And these are government employees from hill working in the valley and vice versa- they are the ones having faced the brunt of these clashes.
Reminds one of
Kashmiri Pandit government employees, who were forced to return to work in Kashmir with similar no pay threats despite their targeted killing.
Muslim students were offering Friday prayer in an area designated for them at Allen Institute, and after seeing this, Hindu students started opposing them by chanting "Jai Shri Ram." This video was posted on Instagram two days ago by @Allen_Sae_Hu.

Sabrina asked a pertinent question, that's what journalists do. Targeting journalists for their personal backgrounds is an old and desperate trope. Instead of focusing on PM Modi's answer, which he gave willingly, strange that trolls are focusing on who asked the question.
Why did five people lost while descending to the Titanic draw far more attention, and far more rescue effort, than hundreds who drowned near Greece? It’s about class and race, but also about politics and familiarity. https://t.co/TSDHPbHmXl
