Realized I cannot be an influencer. But the first copies are here! To that awkward queer nerd who spent all of his time in the library, one day you will be in a library on a shelf.

Scoop | Maharashtra and Rajasthan, both BJP-ruled states, issued massive power purchase tenders that limit competition and favour Adani Group. Adani has already bagged one tender, is front runner for the second. I report: reporters-collective.in/trc/two-power-…

Unpopular opinion: This absolute (clownish) personality cult and complete subservience towards Kejriwal in the AAP, is what makes the party so similar to what it is fighting: today’s BJP.

NOT YOUR DAUGHTER — brilliantly put. Only in India do you have women in their 20s being subjected to curfews and 'surprise checks' in universities/colleges. The VC was apparently trying to "identify students who smoke and drink alcohol after midnight" indianexpress.com/article/cities…

In Kashmir, there is freedom of expression, but no freedom after expression. The fear among journalists in Kashmir is a telling sign of where Kashmir stands in this New India. Much needed report by Manisha Pande.

Hanumankind hugging Modi after breaking out with a song that goes "in school, I used to fight the bullies, now I'm fightin' with the law" is just f'ing hilarious. Also shows how many Indian rappers adopt hip-hop rebellion as an aesthetic, even as they bend backwards for power.

He has sat on the UAPA Delhi riots bail pleas for *months* after reserving judgment. This now means that these cases will have to be heard from scratch, and the accused will have to spend more time in jail without trial. True judicial greatness.

All this talk about metros, infra, ring roads in Mumbai sound so hollow when your basic train network collapses in rain every year. The worse part is there are no announcements & people forced to walk in dark putting their lives at risk. #mumbairains

News Anchor at Ambani's Channel News18 India was screaming "Ashraf" and trying to communalise the unfortunate death of Mahalakshmi, Now that it is clear that the accused is Mukti Ranjan Roy, Aman Chopra has gone back to his holes.

This 300-year-old gem of history in Bandra—Ranwar Village is known for its beautiful heritage homes, quaint alleys and christmas lights. It is all set to get a makeover. My report on NDTV -

Don't look away. This, truly, is what Mumbai is: a city where you can die trying to walk back home. To the politicians and bureaucrats who have run Mumbai for decades and grown rich and fat, this is on you.
