Do read. Something that Anant Maringanti and I feel deeply about

“Emissions from Israel’s war in Gaza have ‘immense’ effect on climate catastrophe. First months of conflict produced more planet-warming gases than 20 climate-vulnerable nations do in a year, study shows” Warfare & colonization are climate justice issues. theguardian.com/world/2024/jan…

So proud of Nithya Raman and what this victory stands for! "This race was also seen as a bellwether for how the small but outspoken progressive coalition on the City Council is faring. So far, Raman is holding up her part of it." latimes.com/opinion/story/…?

BJP down by 38 in Dalit-dominated seats 👏

Some very interesting vote share numbers. In urban seats (major cities), NDA's vote share this time - 52.8%. 2019 - 48%. But in semi-urban, semi-rural and rural seats - 39.9% vs 42.5%, 37.3% vs 42% and 44.1% vs 44.9%. Its the mofussil towns where the BJP has had a fall. 1/n
