Getting COVID cleared out my sense of smell, but also cleared out my sensitive sinus issue (for now). I wonder what variant it was?!

I am making a sheet of inclusive lawyers for @IndiaMeToo willing to put in occasional pro bono work for the underprivileged. If you are a lawyer and do not mind your name and email id being shared on a shareable public doc, do DM me here or on India Me Too so I can put your name

Congratulations to all 7 women governors who were sworn in yesterday in #Kenya. I am delighted to see Kenyan women make history & set the standard for a more inclusive political scene. I hope the next #KenyaElections will see an even higher number of #WomenLeaders represented.

Today some 8 or 9 of us went in the women's compartment of the local train from churchgate to borivali and back talking to commuters there about the remission given to the rapists and murderers of bilkis and her family members. We may have gone in 8 or 9 trains.

Rushing to a 9am meeting because you think you are late and gulp down morning coffee way too fast to enjoy it. Only to arrive and realise you are 2 hours early. #schedulingmessup #tookeen

Still haven't worked out why the discussion of issues on #migrantlabour are so skewed on #recruitmentfees. Looking at what happened before they arrived certainly helps avoid looking at what is happening now. #bizhumanrights


I really appreciate Malaysian trains letting me choose whether I want to sit next to a male or female. I also appreciated the men on the bus letting me take the single seat, even though I hadn't booked that one. #asiantravel #malaysia

We need to think of each other as true sisters and brothers, and to be concerned with each other’s welfare. Rather than working solely to acquire wealth, we need to do something meaningful, something seriously directed toward the welfare of humanity as a whole.
