Interview: ‘Badge of honour’, says Kashmiri journalist on Pune university cancelling her award.
Safina Nabi @soul_restlesss was going to be honoured for a story written for Scroll. The institution backed out because of alleged political pressure.

Before the video emerged, I spent a week in Manipur tracking down cases of violence against women.
4 women bravely recounted every detail of their brutal assault to me.
Thank you @scroll_in for commissioning this crucial story. It is not an easy read

I went back to speak to the Muslim students affected by the hijab ban. With every interview, I was fuming more and more. It was the duty of the state to provide an education NOT snatch it away

Earlier this year, Manipur’s government ordered the destruction of small indigenous-run homestays on Loktak lake, claiming they were responsible for environmental degradation. Did it undertake any scientific assessment before issuing the notification? None whatsoever. #Thread

I found these two back to back pieces from @shivnarayan01 in @newslaundry to be super insightful on stubble burning this year.
First, this story on why Haryana has had so much more success in reducing the practice compared to its neighbour.
