My cab driver in Kolkata turned up slightly late. Apparently, somebody threw his 70 year old neighbour into the Hooghly. She was rescued by a boatman. He is particularly flummoxed because she owns multiple flats, a shop, etc. Who could do this to such an enterprising woman?!?

The problem in engaging with #peakbengaluru is that now my timeline is full of "product designers" either complaining or romanticising the city's weather in Hindi. #diepiggydiediedie

Schools in Kerala will now teach children how to identify Fake News. In a bid to put an end to the menace of fake news, 20 lakh school students of Class V to X across Kerala will be taught basic skills to prevent the spread of fake news through social media. A good move. 👏🏼

There have to be 60 buses for every 100,000 people. No city in India—except Bengaluru—meets this norm. @KhandekarOmkar’s story here: themorningcontext.com/chaos/india-is… Graphics by @arkgrafix

If this were Juhu, you could have asked for a bhel. But in the land of the #EggWaterDosa, this cart offers a menu limited to snacks made of clams, crabs, quail, mussels and the very exotic cauliflower.
