Also, data collected through RTIs by lawyer @socialjurist Ashok Agarwal shows the Delhi Government has managed to push students out of school in alarming numbers to show better #boardexam results. My story: thewire.in/education/delhi-s…

This is quite the story. Flavio Bolsonaro may have put his name on a decoy flight manifest from Brazil to the US, while in reality he was slipping into Argentina, from where he may now be en route to the US www1.folha.uol.com.br/poder/…

This is proof that Modi Govt is giving bulk suspension orders to Instagram. They are not even bothering to check individual posts, just blindly blocking posts left and right in mass.
Instagram removes the reel posted on LiveLaw's official page about the ECI's affidavit in the #SupremeCourt. The reel, which was only an explanation of the ECI's version, was removed by Instagram saying, "We received a legal request to restrict this content". There is no explanation how the reel (instagram.com/reel/De_dnDnOW…) violated any law. @instagram @Meta The same video is available on YouTube - youtube.com/watch?v=OuEYr-bY…

As UP Government school principal on Saturday assured admission of all the out of school children on Tuesday means today, as many as 16 students are excited to go to school for the first time, have purchased uniforms and even school bags. Parents are also excited.

In one of Delhi-NCR's top schools, parents are planning to pool-in funds to buy Dyson/Honeywell/Sharp Purifiers for their children's Nursery classrooms, for the upcoming bad-AQI season. Some parents logically asked, "Why doesn't the school buy these air purifiers?" The school said that their AC systems have HEPA filters, to take care of dust to some extent. Unconvincing. Parents decided to go ahead with their own safety systems. Next, they asked- "What happened to the Air Purifiers that the classroom had last year? The previous batch too had purifiers with AQI monitors." School's response: "The air purifiers travel with the batch of children. As the students move up a year, the Air Purifiers do too. So the Purifiers that were in first grade last year, are in second grade now." Welcome to the incredibly complex world of public-health moving into private hands.

A story that damages many claims by ECI @Basantrajsonu and @AshwineSingh report that a Booth level agent of the BIP filed 5359 form 7s to delete people. When the ERO refused to do bulk deletions, the BLA wrote to the ECI. And ECI said, file them newslaundry.com/2026/10/24/u… #

India's politicians will take this country into ecocide. Fadnavis, Shinde and Ganesh Naik, despite knowing 70% of Maharashtra faces a drought, decide to cut one more forest. This one in the hugely biodiverse water catchment of the western ghats.

Almost, a hundred year ago the protest for the right to water, began at Maharashtra’s Mahad Chavdar Tank led by Babasaheb, has the struggle against caste ended after 100 years? or does it continue, perhaps in more brutal ways in contemporary India?

Their crime - holding candles and praying for Sahil who was institutionally murdered. Sahil's parents whereabouts are unknown. To punish these parents for asking clarity and justice of their murdered child. This is downright hateful. The more you push people to ground, they will rise harder than before. The country will gather for Sahil sooner than later.

The BJP govt, Delhi Police & Jamia admin are working tirelessly & brutally to break JMI's resolve. Yesterday students were attacked, today ID card carrying students were prevented from entering their own campus and detained. The only people working harder are Godi media dalaals! But students of JMI remain unshaken! Salute and congratulations to them! Video: aisa_jamia (Instagram)

Its the judiciary and police which is breaching the peace in this country - by their patently arbitrary practices in support of the Modi regime

Are more than 50 right wing goons threatening with violence right outside the mandir marg police station not a "breach of peace" for the Delhi Police? This hooliganism is being enabled while peaceful protestors are being framed as disruptors in the imagination of the people.

Election Commission’s software has made a massive blunder. It’s translating Hindi/Urdu names by treating them as if they were English. For example, the name was Muhammad Iqbal Beg, but the software turned it into “Mohammad Iqbal Bheek Mangte Hain”. Another example: A woman’s name was Phool Kali Devi, and the software changed it to “Murkh Kali Devi” . Absolute chaos, what’s going on?
