The cases filed by Shiv Sena have set the stage for the latest face-off between the party and erstwhile ally BJP, which has accused the former of misusing power to ‘silence detractors’.
New rules will apply whether online platforms are being used ‘professionally or personally’. BBC employees also aren’t allowed to criticise colleagues publicly.
The plea seeks direction to the Union Law Ministry to formulate a gender-neutral legislation or amend existing laws to expressly criminalise revenge porn, morphing & impersonation.
An elderly woman has been selling pakodas in Assam for the last 30 years, while the flute seller is based out of Delhi. Both their businesses took a hit due to the pandemic.
Going through their Instagrams and dissecting their ‘statements’ is not the astute political commentary you think it is—it is time for us to back off from targeting 20-year-olds.
Companies are borrowing more from banks and public. Economists say high capacity utilisation & growing new orders could set stage for renewed investment push by India Inc.
New Delhi has, in past, too, objected to Chinese construction activities in Shaksgam Valley. Work in this strategic region gathered pace after the 2017 Doklam stand-off.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
We can hope, but the hope rests on assumed strength of the 3rd pillar, and that’s become questionable last few years.
On the other hand, if they do take cognizance and end up having court proceedings, the least they can do is to clarify and respond in detail to Kamras tweets. No grand statements on majesty of law and no pontification please. Quite a few of the audience for these statements is currently in jail with their bail petitions failing to get scheduled.
Wishing the wonderful team at Print and their families a happy Diwali. One more year of chronicling, with passion and integrity, India’s trek to a better future for all its citizens. Asha – Ashok. Ananyadevi from Singapore.
Justice Chandrachud had said that dissent is the safety valve of democracy. So, in a way, is social media. It allows ordinary people to express themselves on public affairs, the working of institutions, the most trusted of which is the judiciary, with a candour that would not be possible in the case of mainstream media. Which in any case is going through an exceptionally deferential phrase. 2. It would be stating the obvious that all is not well with the judiciary. The tenure of the previous CJI, concluding in his elevation to the Rajya Sabha, was eventful. The manner in which allegations made against him by a lady employee were dealt has not created an excellent precedent. An awkward situation has arisen with the CM of AP making allegations against the learned Judge who is poised to become the next CJI. Learning from the immediate past, these should be enquired into through a process that inspires the utmost public confidence. That will allow him to helm the institution in a manner that demonstrates absolute independence from the executive.
For me, the best Diwali gift would be the certainty that there will be no war in the Himalayas. Dokalam was a tense 73 day standoff which reminded both sides that the forty odd year stretch of No loss of life along the LAC could not be taken for granted. The informal summits at Wuhan and Mahabalipuram could have put in place more durable protocols to prevent the tragic loss of lives at Galwan Valley. 2. President elect Joe Biden is speaking to world leaders, the sequence laying out in concentric circles the salience of various countries to the United States.
