The selected cartoons appeared first in other publications, either in print, online, or on social media, and are credited appropriately.

In today’s featured cartoon, Alok Nirantar cleverly displays the hypocrisy of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. While Gandhi famously touted his party’s ‘Mohabbat ki Dukaan‘ strategy, his recent dig at PM Modi by calling him a ‘panauti’ (bad omen) responsible for India’s loss at the Cricket World Cup final brings shows a different picture.

Satish Acharya’s insightful cartoon also depicts the recent ‘Panauti’ comment made by Rahul Gandhi. He situates it amidst the rising snide remarks and insults thrown by opposing political parties in the country, while the common man’s struggles are lost in the mix.

Referencing Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh‘s parole decision, Sandeep Adhwaryu’s cartoon questions the delivery of justice for rape survivors in the country.


E P Unny | The Indian Express

E P Unny’s cartoon illustrates the recent controversy where the Supreme Court asked the Tamil Nadu governor the reason behind delaying the passing of bills pending before him. The cartoon swiftly brings in the ‘One Nation, One Election’ debate too, asking how people are expected to vote faster than governors passing bills.

Nine Years, Made Possible by Readers

In 2017, Shekhar Gupta started ThePrint with a simple belief: Indian readers want journalism that asks why and what next, not just what. And that enough of them would be willing to pay for good journalism.

Nine years on, that belief has held.

And, in these nine years, we’ve stayed true to our mission. We’ve been asking the follow-up questions, going beyond the headlines and explaining what’s actually happening. We’ve travelled across the country to bring you in-depth, visually-compelling stories from the ground.

It’s been nine years of readers choosing to make this possible. If you’d like to be one of them:
