BRICS statement on Palestine. And this is what I like about negotiations between various countries. A statement like this from the Modi government alone is impossible. But as BRICS, it is here.

If you run state-propaganda, you are state-controlled media. Applies as much to BBC and NYT as it does to RT and Xinhua.

The Modi government needs lessons in both history and ethics.

During Cold War, many Global South countries came together to not only say 'this is not our war' but also to uphold values like peace & focus on domestic issues like developmental deficits owing to colonial plunder. Non-alignment was an ethical stance; not a useless 'neutral' one.

Modi is attending BRICS claiming to speak for the Global South & is being showered with highest state honours in countries like Ghana & Trinidad & Tobago. A journalist should ask Modi in-person "Mr. Prime Minister, what do you think about Israel's genocidal campaign in Gaza?".

I would like to encourage everyone to file RTIs. It works very rarely. A part of my cupboard is exclusively for useless RTIs where I got no information or irrelevant information (I don't know why I keep them). But when it does work, it is gold.
