File this under “Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, Legacy of” Three Muslims Killed as Locals Opposing Survey of Mughal-Era Mosque in Sambhal Clash With Police m.thewire.in/article/religi…
"The police shot my son and pushed him aside from the road. He died there only…He had gone to get household items" - Mother of Naeem Ahmed who was killed in Sambhal Violence. Shame on UP Government.
This is a very thoughtful piece:
Here is my appraisal of Justice Chandrachud's Disability Jurisprudence. I thought of writing this counterintuitive piece for SCO to problematize the overwhelming consensus on his disability jurisprudence being 'progressive.' scobserver.in/journal/best-o…
“In my view, the record of the Chandrachud Court in protecting civil liberties has not been promising.When a significant population faces communal othering, ‘fraternity’ cannot be ensured for the disabled in silos” - Vijay Tiwari - this one I really like. scobserver.in/journal/best-o…
Right in the middle of two parallel book projects long in the pipeline- polygamous writing (to borrow and extend Yiyun Li)-I decided to halt, and settle my unease with the monotone of style and form. Back to the basics of writing and hopefully i can pick this up soon — worry not!
Also his work on progressive literatures in Indian languages which Devy conceptualised and was series editor for. See for eg the bilingual Telugu-English volumes orientblackswan.com/details?id=978…
In this week's @NewYorker: My profile of Ganesh Devy, who assembled the first Indian survey of languages in a century, and who now lives in Dharwad as a protest against forces who will kill writers and impose religions and languages [1] newyorker.com/magazine/2024/…
Who are the authors of the #TISS study on illegal migration? Why are they not named in the petition of academics circulating for signature? If it is a study that has been released they must bear the burdens and responsibility of authorship and criticism!
Trump’s triumph doesn’t mean that the US electorate is two blocs organized around fixed poles; it is means that America is one beast prone to mood swings. America isn’t polarized, it’s bi-polar. We’re now in its manic phase.
The essential @mukulkesavan:“Centrists despair at what Trump says, not what he does. Unlike his predecessors, Trump is a proud slob who publicly owns his prejudices.He acts out the squalor in his head..He has no interest in being respectable…” telegraphindia.com/opinion/exit-j…
Professor Upendra Baxi too weighs in on the hot topic for writing and posting these days - the legacy of Justice DYC. Oddly, DYC himself triggered a long winded discussion on his own “legacy” and set the terms of the debate that will follow his tenure!
Yes, @myogiadityanath ji, in 1948, the Razakars burned down Sri @kharge ji’s house, taking the lives of his mother and sister. Though he narrowly escaped, he survived and rose to become a 9 time MLA, twice Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha MP, central minister, the Leader of the Lok…
@AnandTeltumbde writes: “The appeal of Gandhi’s evolving vision lies in shifting attention from religious and cultural divides to concerns about economic inequality, unemployment, farmers’ rights, and social justice” @thewire_in thewire.in/politics/urban…
Oh dear! But at least it has travelled to Indian shores now. Forget about the concept - let’s talk about the practice. So if it was invented by the left how about you dismantling it, madame @nsitharaman
Everything That's Wrong with Liberal Centrism in Under 3 mins As told by the late great David Graeber
German authorities know what Israel is doing – they know that their ally is committing another Holocaust. They are simply trying to cast this as normal, just and inevitable, because they have done the same several times over in their not-so-distant history aljazeera.com/opinions/2024/…

Reasons why Harris lost: #2: Sending Israel 14,000 2,000-lb bombs that it used to kill over 13,000 children in Gaza x.com/Andre__Damon/s…
Reuters just reported exactly what kind of bombs the US has been sending Israel. Biden sent fourteen thousand 2,000-pound bombs – more than all other types combined. These bombs destroy whole city blocks. The destruction of Gaza is intentional. It's genoicde by design.
About 100Jewish artists & intellectuals living in #Germany said it "does not achieve its own stated goals. It will weaken, rather than strengthen, the #diversity of #JewishLife in Germany by associating all Jews with the actions of the #Israeli government” www-barrons-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.barron…
All the takes are correct and yet they also miss the point. Yes, it was insane for the Democrats to think they could win by running a soulless candidate, without a shred of progressive policy vision, pursuing endorsements from neocon war-hawks everybody hates, while arming and…
We have fallen into the trap. Overpowered by high judicial inanities — repeated in more and more banal terms, and hollowing out our frames of reference to absurd levels — and we still read and try to grasp a thread to find none— the emperor’s illusory raiment!! Banal sophistry!!
