Schooling minorities: Muslims in the West telegraphindia.com/opinion/herd-m…
A 12.50 rupee bus pass. Coffee Homes for dosa. British Council Library membership not too costly. “Tumhari Amrita” at Mandi House. “Mississippi Burning” for 2 Rs. at Chanakya. Thank you, Delhi NCR, for real education that a pricey, private university’s students will never know.

"The lesson absorbed by far too many of those who grew up post-1991 is that if you can blag your way to a particular goal, it’s okay to jettison knowledge, rigour, questioning, empathy and ethics."
When @mukulkesavan picks four books to understand modern India, you pay attention and take note. From @AshokaMody to @suchitrav, this list speaks for a lot of us. foreignpolicy.com/2024/04/08/mod… This will resonate with many others too.
You should read @ForeignPolicy to get smart on India ahead of its elections. But you should also read more. @mukulkesavan has a great selection of books, and describes them as only he can. foreignpolicy.com/2024/04/08/mod…

So sad to learn about the unfortunate demise of Hari Sen sahab, a well respected historian, who taught for many years at Ramjas College.

Interesting to see Luttwak finds himself incapable of disagreeing with @AliVaez without resorting to racism (“Iran-born…”)
Indeed. But in Washington DC the ICG's much quoted Iran-born Iran expert A Vaez explains that the Iran Revolutionary Guards are so timid that they just cannot control those impetuous Houthis, nor stop sending missiles & drones to them. Why would he ever say that ?
This is interesting for several reasons. 1. Israel has historically refused to ratify this very Protocol 2. It is clear from the text that the harmful act has to be outside of humanitarian functions (ie treating people) - consider this in the context of the Jenin attack,
