Super stoked to sight the Eurasian Hobby at #VetalTekdi today. A passage migrant over the city on its way to wintering grounds in Africa. @VTBKS_Pune @sushmadate @sumitakale @VetalTekdi

I am so sorry for making those jokes about Delhi Traffic Police. Very insensitive of me to speak ill of an extinct species.

Delhi's latest traffic gridlock is physics. @VinayakD explains here Delhi's drivers, unfortunately for all of us, mostly drive like what physics calls Brownian motion, which makes it even worse hindustantimes.com/ht-explai…

I may make jokes about the traffic in Delhi but am fully aware that the joke is on me — and on all of us.

When the personal attacks and name calling comes as a flood, you know that change is imminent in the insurance industry! An industry and distribution system that has ripped people off for decades.

The promise and peril of Delhi's public spaces. In the wake of a minor girl's rape at Aastha Kunj, a spot check by HT found that Delhi's biggest and most popular parks are poorly lit, unguarded and have few safety mechanisms. @somyalakhani @mullickjamie @sanyamathur29

Today is the 100th anniversary of the birth of John Coltrane. To mark it we have selected a number of essays and reviews from back issues of The Wire going back over 40 years, all attempting to come to an understanding of the meaning and significance of Coltrane’s life and music.

In my latest substack post, I write about John Coltrane on his birth centenary. About how I have experienced his music over the decades, the connections I see between his style and Indian classical music, and some impossible birthday wishes. srajagopalan.substack.com/p/…
