#OPINION | The answer to fascism cannot be liberal fascism, which is just the other side of the same coin, writes @itsanandneel.

रामायण सिर्फ राम और रावण के बीच हुए युद्ध की कहानी नहीं है. अलग-अलग भाषाओं, संस्कृतियों और समाजों में इसकी ऐसी कई कहानियां मिलती हैं, जो एक-दूसरे से काफी अलग हैं। लेखक आनंद नीलकंठन की किताब विविध रामायण, विविध पाठ इसी अनोखी परंपरा से रूबरू कराती है @itsanandneel @ManjulPubHouse

Another Bollywood insider thinking Indian food means what some North Indians eat. Half of the country would not have even heard about all these food items. Another of the Hindi is the national language kind of complex 😂

#OPINION | The government must immediately stop using its state machinery to meddle with social media platforms. Stripping away the last remaining avenues for the common man to vent their frustrations guarantees that our much-celebrated democracy is truly running on accidental survival, writes @itsanandneel.

✨ एक कथा। अनेक रूप। कई दृष्टिकोण। 📖
शूर्पणखा से लेकर सीता तक, अलग-अलग परंपराओं में रामायण की अनेक कथाएँ और विविध रूप मिलते हैं।
‘विविध रामायण, विविध पाठ’ इन्हीं अलग-अलग कथाओं के ज़रिए इस महाकाव्य की बहुलता को समझने का प्रयास है। ✨
जल्द आ रही है।

OPINION | When an entire generation realises it is being fooled, no amount of tear gas can enforce their silence.

It is heartbreaking to see students, teenagers, brutally beaten up. Instead of fixing the broken system, the establishment is trying to curb even mild dissent with brute force. Hats off to Gen Z for having more courage than our WhatsApp uncle generation

#OPINION | One has to appreciate the creative ways the government finds to extract money from the pockets of common people. The #ethanol-blended #petrol E10-E20, which is set to become E30 soon, is one of the magical tricks that the mandarins in the air-conditioned corridors of #NewDelhi have pulled on the unsuspecting public. They call ethanol-blended petrol a matter of physical prudence. They call it import substitution and green transition. It is a genius move if you own an ethanol blending factory. For everyone else, it is a disaster, writes @itsanandneel.

A good piece on the big ethanol swindle by @itsanandneel. He explains how ethanol damages legacy vehicles, and why the poor and the middle class are the biggest losers

#OPINION | How dare such cockroaches attack everyone and raise questions on our crumbling footpaths, polluted air and water, filthy cities, or corrupt bureaucracy?
The audacity of the cockroaches to question the fact that there are over 5.5 crore pending cases in Indian courts, or that the Supreme Court works only for 193 days, high courts work around 210 days, and trial courts for around 245 days per year, is enough to make any patriot’s blood boil in rage. There are roughly 5 lakh prisoners in India, of which 3.75 lakhs are undertrials, but so what? writes @itsanandneel.
