Nagpur sees two major gatherings every Vijayadashmi. The country remains fixed on one, oblivious that on Hindutva's grand day Ambedkar had left Hinduism. 1000s of Dalits from across the country assemble at Diksha Bhumi every year, vow to fight for rights. In 2016, having +

A young adivasi Manu Ram was killed in police firing a week ago in Bastar. Police said he was a Naxal. Today, Bastar police said that he was killed in cross-fire between police and Naxals, was not a Naxal. Manu's brother is in the police. Manu had also applied for a police job.

Women place these bodies before the thana. They beat their chests. They throw utensils and stones. Men want them to return, bury the dead. But they won't budge. Of all the years covering the insurgency in central India, first instance that I see adivasi women so furious. +

चलती कार में बैठा इन्सान वीडियो बना रहा है. बाहर फैली रात के नीचे लड़का भाग रहा है. कार से उठते बेहिसाब प्रश्नों के जवाब दे रहा है. और फिर कार में बैठा इन्सान कहता है --- "ये क्लिप वायरल हो जाएगी." इस इन्सान को अच्छे से मालूम है कि वह क्या कर रहा है.

एक पत्रकार को RG पर किताब लिखने की वजह से नौकरी से इस्तीफा देना पड़ता है, लेकिन उस संस्थान के कर्मचारी मोदी पर किताब लिख सकते हैं. RG की किताब के लिए कोई प्रकाशक नहीं मिलता, लेखक को अपनी राशि से किताब छपानी पड़ती है. मोदी की किताब देश के सर्वोच्च अंग्रेजी प्रकाशन से आती है.

ये कल हुआ था। टाइम्स ऑफ इंडिया ने आज अपने पहले पन्ने पर प्रमुखता से छापा है। कल ही @Pawankhera जी ने भी विवेकानंद फाउंडेशन, पी एम केयर्स फंड वगैरह को चीन से पैसा मिलने की बात कही थी। वो खबर मुझे आज के टाइम्स में नहीं मिली। आपने पढ़ी हो तो बताइए।

बनारस की ज्ञानवापी (ज्ञान का तालाब) मस्जिद दुनिया की शायद एकमात्र मस्जिद होगी जिसका संस्कृत नाम है। गंगा किनारे शहनाई बजाने वाले उस्ताद बिस्मिल्ला खान के बेटे ने कभी मुझसे कहा था कि उनके अब्बा ने सरस्वती साध ली थी। कोई समझाए उन्हें कि यह है बनारस।

आज मुसलमान अपने दैनिक संघर्ष में, अपने अपमान और बहिष्कार में, लगभग अकेला है. मुस्लिम समाज की आतंरिक समस्याएं हैं, जैसे किसी अन्य समुदाय की होती हैं. लेकिन जब आप उन समस्याओं की आड़ लेकर मुस्लिम समाज पर प्रहार करते हैं, तो अपने पूर्वग्रह भी उजागर कर देते हैं...

The bodies can be handed over to relatives only after postmortem. So the bodies are sliced open in the middle of the jungle. Absolutely illegal this. Govt doctors don't even touch the bodies, ask relatives to cut them open and look for the wound. Absolutely inhuman this. +

In this interview to Chhattisgarh’s TV channels, an adivasi at the spot says nine were killed. The police claimed 3 deaths because they recovered and carried 3 bodies with them. The other six bodies are with the villagers.

A large number of Indian journalists are covering the pandemic on ground, doing serious investigations, getting infected -- and dying. International media loses its credibility by repeatedly quoting a person who's wonderfully isolated and insulated from Indian reality.

He’s posted a long thread, reproducing what’s already in his book, deflecting from the issue. The issue is: he’s attributing a stunning quote to C Rajaji, a quote that seems so improbable, and yet he didn’t cross check it from other sources.
