  • The ambivalence of a pro-active CBI
     - 4 days ago

  • The man who made news 120 years ago
     - 4 months ago
    Vivekananda challenged the orthodox elites not by pooh-poohing their beliefs, but by speaking about religious texts in a new way. He hated “touch-me-not-ism”, a pungent phrase he used to describe the inhuman treatment of the Dalits.
  • Fidgety liberals hype the Gujarat polls
     - 5 months ago
    It looks like it is now the turn of Gujarat to become the focal point of national elections — or what passes for national in the rootless cosmopolitans, liberals and right-wingers in the English language print and electronic media.

  • CAG is not a political punching bag
     - 7 months ago
    The BJP wanted a slogan, something simple and provocative. What better than to use the mind-boggling figures to pinpoint the government’s venality.
  • Can we have real, not empty, populism
     - 7 months ago
    Unfortunately, populism in India never throws up issues that affect everyday life of people like the state of schools and hospitals, state of roads and even street lighting.
  • Congress learns to admire Manmohan Singh
