My simple point is that the EC can have 3 Yeshwant Deshmukhs if the appointing committee including the principal opposition is Unanimous about it. Officers appointed on a 2:1 plurality tend to go to the 2 and not to 1.

Agree. We should have at least two Naveen Chawlas in it to balance it out.

If the purpose of education is to score well on a test, we've lost sight of the real reason for learning.

India's Godi media, I am afraid, is like Fox News on steroids and bath salts. It's jingoistic, promulgates nonsense, and malinforms the public rather than informs it. And the consequences are dangerous for democracy.

Sir, you and I can question the views of the experts, however let them speak. Don’t silence people. Societies, countries and people won’t grow if media does not make it easy for participants to speak their mind.

After the events of the past 72 hours, it should be evident to all well-meaning and sensible Indians that they need to shun big media and support independent media. Non-speculative, credible reportage, sans jingoism and propaganda, is what will keep India strong and safe.

Justice is identifying perpetrators. Justice is bringing them to law. Justice is promising the country that the lapses will not be allowed to repeat. War is not Justice. You & I may not stop war but can stop cheering for war. For the sake of humanity, stop it 🙏🏽

Tamil Nadu’s fair and firm voice on #TwoLanguagePolicy and #FairDelimitation is echoing nationwide—and the BJP is clearly rattled. Just watch their leaders’ interviews. And now Hon’ble Yogi Adityanath wants to lecture us on hate? Spare us. This isn’t irony—it’s political black…
