The lockdown’s necessary, but will be devastating for the homeless, daily wage earners&contract workers. If each of us takes care of the daily rations&essentials of at least 3 less privileged families, it will have an exponential effect but unlike COVID, it’ll be a ‘good virus.’

On Jan. 5, a masked, armed mob ransacked a hostel in Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru University. People were beaten--a blind student, most shockingly. I spent 3 days at JNU that week & wrote about the attack. And about the Hindu right's takeover of India. (1/n)

Modi, Shah and everyone one of those unruly violent members of the BJP are responsible for the violence in Delhi. Over the past six years they have targeted the muslim community through their vile statements, their silence and policies, encouraging a culture of hate.

Amazing. “The Supreme Court justice recently addressed the current slate of editors in chief from the top 16 law schools in the country. For the first time ever, all are women.” #EqualityCantWait m-gat.es/2OYds82

The Sabarimala controversies may be a milestone in the maturing of social consciousness in this country !
Dear @BDUTT ji..
Sabarimala has nothing to do with menstruation..
This is not "an argument" but 100% fact
Our Fact of the matter is the Celibate Nature of deity. My grand mother officiates "Goddess Menstruation" ritual in Chenganoor Devi Temple.
Pls enquire the FACT in this

Patriotism is the exact opposite of nationalism. Nationalism is a betrayal of patriotism. By putting our own interests first, with no regard for others, we erase the very thing that a nation holds dearest, and the thing that keeps it alive: its moral values. – at Paris, France

Dance can stir your soul & make you want to fly. I’m super excited about Bhramara Festival of Dance. This is going to be one of the coolest & grandest dance festivals in Mumbai. There will be some brillant performances by dancers from all over India & abroad. Don’t miss it guys👍

In our modern society everything seems geared to material development, even our systems of education. As a result we no longer pay sufficient attention to our inner values, which leads to mental unrest. In order to address this imbalance we need to pay more attention to our minds

3 days of angry non-stop rain; the city’s out to work. The bhelpuri guy outside Jaslok’s busy. The breadwala came on time. So did newspapers, the lady who keeps the building clean. Flower girls wet and smiling at the crossing. Lovers cuddling on Marine Drive. Mumbai is always on.
