While Chandra Shekhar Azad is a streetfighter who has caught the fancy of Dalit youth, Anil Antony is the face of the BJP’s fresh social engineering attempt.
Air India’s new policy, effective from 2 May, introduces new weight limits for tickets in each of the different 'fare families' — Comfort, Comfort Plus, and Flex.

The term ‘minority’ is not just misleading but mischievous. Justice Khanna had Christians in mind when he wrote that judgement. Christian missionaries have been running outstanding educational institutions for over a century. Remember how ‘convented’ brides commanded a premium! The only nefarious activity they were accused of was proselytization. They never preached violence, death to non believers or anything remotely antinational.

Wonder when the ‘problem minority’ will be called by the right name.
Emergency was not new. whenever Congress had a chance it mangled with the Constitution, starting form, 18 June 1951 (1st Amendment) by Jawaharlal Nehru.

These laws encroach upon property rights, freedom of speech and equality before law
