Redistribution of wealth is an idea whose time has come. It should start with allocating 50% budget for roughly 50% population engaged in agriculture. That's the sure recipe for Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas. My article.

Forcing candidates to withdraw from contest amounts to use of unfair means in elections. #EC has the duty to ensure free, fair elections. It should take action in #Surat. #LokSabhaElections2024 deccanherald.com/opinion/editor… via @DeccanHerald

Fact check: irony of ironies. It was Rajiv Gandhi who abolished estate duty in 1985. Since then, BOTH Cong and BJP govts have toyed with the idea in the last decade of bringing back such a tax (some worthies have even now deleted their past tweets supporting the tax😊). If only…
"Whether you vote for us (Congress) or not, but at least come to my funeral if you think that I have done (some work) for Kalaburagi.”— #Congress president #Kharge to #Kalaburagi voters. That was unfair, stooping low and not Kharge level talk.
Sudhir Kakar (1938-2024) RIP | “Can the psychological make sense of the cultural in all human experience? The only way to understand Kakar’s methodology is to recognise the fact that he has a measure of the modern as well as of the traditional.” thehindu.com/society/sudhir…

In Rabat, the capital of Morocco, there is a bookseller named Mohamed Aziz. He started selling books in 1963 when he was 15. Then he had only one carpet and 9 books. It sounds like a fairy tale from 1001 nights. But it is hardly easy to sell books in a country where nearly 1/4 of…
Congress seems to be missing a golden opportunity that Modi has given them to spread and distribute it's manifesto to people and make them aware of what it intends to do if voted to power. It is still not late.
Public has short-term memory. Let me remind you, there was a time in recent past when people actually pledged their mangalsutra due to sheer inefficiency of its government. Lakhs of people died because government vanished. reporters-collective.in/projects/gujar…
Election gyaan: the size of most Lok Sabha constituencies make it almost impossible for MPs to connect with voters. A north Bengaluru for example has a humungous 31 lakh voters: how can an MP address the needs of such a large voter base? Baramati has 22 lakh voters, spread from…
So, Sonam Wangchuk has been threatened with Kejriwal-like consequences. India is rapidly turning into a Mafia-State, before our eyes. Anyone protesting will be destroyed - first his reputation, then his life. #SonamWangchuk #Ladakh #Kejriwal #StateProsecution
Birthdays are no longer about the future but about the past. So it was great to go back to the home made of memories, to the old sunrise, the familiar moon, and the same bend in the river for a birthday after many decades.
I try to get into the mind of Rushdie’s would-be assassin Hadi Matar, who evidently wasn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer. My latest for @unherd: unherd.com/2024/04/libera…
