I write for @frontline_india about #rape as a tool of systemic oppression and the depth of the ongoing #WestBengal protests seeking to dismantle the nexus of #State & #patriarchy, exposing the hollowness of Mamata Banerjee's women-centric schemes. frontline.thehindu.com/social-issues/…
After 18 months of civil war in Manipur and nearly 300 civilians killed, India’s super efficient Home Minister has come up with this gem: “Home Minister Amit Shah directed security officials to take all possible steps to ensure peace”. I can do no better than to quote Modiji ‘s…
A ban on morning-after contraceptive pills is an attack on the Indian woman’s bodily autonomy, sexual and reproductive rights. More so because she already bears a disproportionate burden of contraceptive responsibility. frontline.thehindu.com/the-nation/pub…

“I couldn’t see my mother one last time before her death because I was denied parole. This is a denial of basic Human Rights. My mother passed away when I was in Prison. Being a disabled child since birth, my mother brought me up with utmost care. She used to take me to school in…
Talk about the male gaze! This "strange" depoliticised romanticisation of a diversity of Indian women, with multi-hyphenated identities, is written in patriarchy and a fantasy that reduces women to extremes. Submission or oppression? Dominance or resistance? #LaapataaLadies
In India's drought-prone Bundelkhand region, “Jal Sahelis” — female friends of the water — lead a grassroots movement in water conservation, empowering communities and inspiring national policy changes. My first piece for @devex devex.com/news/a-local-f…
The indomitable @ReallySwara asks Judges of this country: “What is scaring you at this old age? What is the greed you have? Why do you want to get Governor’s post, Rajya Sabha post?”

Can you imagine a young activist spending 4 years in jail for simply advocating that "we won't respond to hate with hate but with love"? Umar Khalid’s imprisonment is a stark reminder of the cost of speaking truth to power. #UmarKhalid4YearsInJail #4YearsOfInjustice
Chief Justice of India has compromised the separation of powers between the Executive and Judiciary. Lost all confidence in the independence of the CJI . The SCBA must condemn this publicly displayed compromise of Independence of the CJI from the Executive @KapilSibal

This is one of the saddest days for our newsroom and for me personally. Not only has our editor @seemay lost her partner but many of us have lost a dear friend. Comrade Sitaram Yechury was also a staunch defender of the rights we journalists struggle everyday to defend—freedom of…
Rape is not new in #WestBengal, and indeed not in India, where it is a routine form of systemic oppression. As per stats, there is a rape every 16 mins in India. Yet, incidents of rape hardly trigger any protest. @BanerjeeSanhati writes. frontline.thehindu.com/social-issues/…
Kolkata Rickshaw Pullers hit the streets today. Of tens of protests happening today, this is very very significant. They are risking union diktat and possible impact on livelihood. #CourageIsContagious
It's been 4 years since Umar Khalid was imprisoned for daring to hope for a just world. As he completes 4 years in prison on Sept 13th, change your DP, share your message of hope, and tag @FreeUmarKhalid1 @StandWithUmar on Instagram. Let's remind him he's not alone.

We are seeking a solution to the suffering & pain. We are not asking you to leave criminals but the young people, most of whom are under trials & first time offenders are the ones who deserve amnesty. This is not an enemy territory- we have right to seek constitutional safeguards
During her protest march, #MamataBanerjee, who was first sworn in as #WestBengal CM in 2011 & is also Health & Home Minister, demanded justice for the doctor who was raped & murdered. Whom exactly was Mamata demanding justice from? | @BanerjeeSanhati frontline.thehindu.com/social-issues/…
