Sleeveless jerseys and flip-flops are banned during IPL presentation ceremonies. What’s next? Jumpsuits for wrestlers? It’s bizarre. Top athletes are steeped in discipline and sporting etiquette; clothes don’t define their conduct, on-field behaviour does. Cricketers deserve to be relaxed after intense games. Besides, they would look funny celebrating in ties.
The word ‘trans’ is terrifying for Trump. It is deafening him to anything that follows
The word ‘trans’ seems to be terrifying for Trump, deafening him to anything that follows. So, he laments that US is funding transgender research for mice, when in actuality it’s funding transgenics, a vital scientific method. What’s next? Should Hollywood be quaking because a new Transformers movie is coming out?
50,000 flats for the poor vacant—Delhi’s political one-upmanship is at fault
Over 50,000 flats in Delhi for the poor are lying vacant for a decade. It’s not just a colossal waste of national resources, but also an example of how policy flip-flops and political one-upmanship deny dignity to the poor. Three parties compete for their vote. Clearly, that was not enough.
The Print editorial team is rabidly anti-Trump. One cannot but wonder what makes them so? What has Trump done to rile them up like this? Is it the dismantling of the USAID – a convenient source of funding for the Left-liberal cabal across the world?
How does it matter to India whether the Trump administration carries on transgenics research ir not? Why should an Indian publication fret and fuss over what’s happening in the US?
Or is it just another case of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS)?
This only shows how outsized the Delhi lobby is when compared to other Indian cities.
50,000 flats would be most welcome in Mumbai or Bangalore or even Kolkata.
But these cities were not granted the resources to build so many houses despite their desperate need for the same.
Delhi gets whatever it wishes for – even when it does not need it.
