Despite the Centre's aggressive push for natural farming schemes, the incentives and income are yet to reach the Bhil women farmers of Rajsamand. What no one told them: this kind of farming demands time, labour, and patience, more than they can ever afford to have. For @BehanBox

NWMI urges the Indian government and @indembcairo to ensure that Nikita’s passport is returned immediately, and that she be allowed to carry out her professional duties. Nikita Jain was reporting for @MaktoobMedia on The Global March to Gaza. https://t.co/G7okTUfOHw

Absolutely fucking insane to release the passenger list this early before there is any realistic chance that the families are informed. They even included the passport numbers. This might be the worst breach of journalistic ethics I have ever seen.

Block them, deny them visas, refuse to engage with them, harass them with raids - and expect, what? We fritter away our soft power in myriad ways, every day.

hope our current tv coverage is what it takes to make broadcast news irrelevant in this country forever

Freedom of the press anyone ? Solidarity with Maktoob Media

Look around to notice who all are baying for blood & cheering on the death of other humans. In your vicinity, in your WhatsApp groups. Those who have nothing at stake. Those who don’t even move a finger to help other humans. War, violence, revenge have never led to anything good.

Important analysis by India Hate Lab (@indiahatelab) Within 10 days of the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, there were 64 in-person hate speech events in India. That's more than six hate speech events a day.

"The journalist should challenge what comes in the way of their Article 19 freedom to work, and I should challenge what the government is doing with satire": @kunalkamra88 Kamra on the shrinking space for humour amid state repression https://t.co/0k6KeCvQjK

Medha Patkar after her release at Saket Court with friends like Poorva with her. Still cheerful, still full of high spirits despite a gruelling day in court. Can't but deeply admire this indomitable woman. Advocate Sreedevi Panikar argued the case ...

Janaki Amma teaches women to swim in nighties and churidars. “No swimsuits needed,” she says. “You can learn in anything.” At 65, she’s taught 1,822 women and children — all for free. She’s not just teaching swimming. She’s teaching freedom. https://t.co/1fytmu38Yy

I want to talk about something called journalist standards that seem to have vanished in Indian reporting. Take this article:

Let’s be clear: if someone holds my poem in a placard at a protest, a rally, a people’s uprising I stand with them. But this is not that. This is my poem, written in velvet cloth, another carved in wood, hung inside a commercial white cube space, renamed, rebranded, and resold

I see @ndtv reported from the ground about tree-felling in #KanchaGachibowli. They will not report about tree-felling in the same week for an Adani coal mine in Hasdeo following PM Modi's visit to Bilaspur because NDTV is owned by Adani. This is why we need independent media

Zero Budget Natural Farming isn’t zero effort. In Rajasthan’s Peepla village, Bhil women rise before dawn, farm till dusk, and still go hungry when the rains betray them.Climate resilience is built on their unpaid, invisible labour. @cinamann reports https://t.co/jiYvxLwUM4
