राजस्थान से मुझे अब तक जयपुर, अजमेर, जोधपुर, उदयपुर, धौलपुर, भरतपुर, कोटा, बाड़मेर, हनुमानगढ़ में ख़राब स्कूल का निरीक्षण करने की रिक्वेस्ट आई है। इन जगहों पर प्रशासन स्कूल ठीक करने की माँग नहीं मान रहा।
अगले कुछ दिनों में मैं यह सभी जगह कवर करूँगा।
अगर आपके शहर या गाँव में भी कोई स्कूल ख़राब है और प्रशासन बात नहीं मान रहा है तो मुझे टैग करिए। @Cockroachisback की टीम जल्द वहाँ पहुंचेगी।
अपने बच्चों के स्कूल ठीक कराकर रहेंगे!
@rajeduofficial @madandilawar FYI.

Remarkable ! You've distilled an hour long podcast into a crisp 800 word column on something vital facing us - finding facts in a jungle of information & misinformation.

Facts are important. The need today is also to train people to sift out misinformation and propaganda.

Had the privilege of being in conversation with @vikasswarup yesterday at the launch of The Girl with the Seven Lives. In 2005 I was in conversation with him at the launch of his first novel Q&A that became Slumdog Millionaire. Jai Ho Vikas!

Heartfelt thanks to Hemu Ramaiah for arranging a superb book launch at The Folly, Amethyst, Chennai! It was wonderful to be in conversation with @JayakumarNavin, who had also done the honours during the release of Q&A in 2005. The attentive audience made it even more special.
