Replug | India lags way behind most countries in the world in promising the right to health as a constitutionally guaranteed right. scroll.in/article/1081490/ha… Today more than half the countries in the world contain references to the right to health. India is not one of these, Harsh Mander✍️

Manipur | Remembering the 20yr old girl, victim of the 2023 ethnic conflict died on Jan 10 waiting for Justice. 3 yrs later the perpetrators walk free. No one arrested. Her mother, Lhingnei Haokip, told @newslaundry her daughter’s ordeal. Read 👇🏾 "My daughter was a very lively and outgoing girl before she was subjected to this horrifying brutality. She wasn’t really interested in academics, but she worked at a beauty parlour in Imphal with one of our relatives. She had many friends and often hung out with them. My daughter was always smiling and full of life, but after the incident, she lost her smile. ....My daughter became so traumatised that she confined herself to one room. She completely stopped interacting with everyone. She stopped going out and stopped talking to her friends. Doctors used to visit twice a week for trauma therapy sessions, but my daughter could not recover. I was the only person she spoke to. She didn't leave my side even when we stepped out for 15 minutes. ....For the last two years, she lived in constant fear. She used to tell me that she did not want to live anymore. Once, she told me that everyone knew what had happened to her and that she felt extremely vulnerable because of it. She had nightmares and gradually developed insomnia. She could not sleep out of fear, and because of all this, her health kept deteriorating. On January 8, my daughter started vomiting and developed diarrhoea. We consulted a doctor and gave her medicines, but within a day, she passed away. It was the trauma and the injuries inflicted on her that affected her health. Over the last two years, she developed a prolonged illness because of what was done to her. I have only one wish left in life – to see the people who did this to her punished. I want to know who those men were...... I am going to miss my daughter." Lhingnei Haokip will grieve all her life. Her daughter died waiting for justice. When shielding perpetrators matters more than healing victims, justice becomes rare. And a nation that denies a mother justice can this country still call itself civilised nation?

1400 families have been denied their entitled #ration for the last 5 months for being unable to complete houses under PMAY. This is a complete violation of #NFSA. Their entitled ration must be provided immediately @DistAdmKeonjhar @Food_Odisha @CMO_Odisha

These attacks & statements are not at all about the comment he made, it is a Smokescreen this is because his mother embarrassed the RSS & they want to teach him a lesson. Courts were open 8 days after the alleged statement, yet there was no reaction. #CasteistSanghis #BRGavai

Celebrating seven years of live streaming judgment: ‘Indira Jaising vs Secretary General, Supreme Court’. All credit to former CJI U U Lalit for bringing the judgment into force which introduced transparency & accountability in the functioning of judiciary.

After allowing the constitution to be gnawed one order, one appointment, one academic exercise into places of worship, one listing at a time writes a book called WHY CONSTITUTION MATTERS Perhaps because God told him to write this to whitewash his legacy.

The interviewer should have asked-when he was Master of the Roster was the Umar Khalid case listed before a particular bench consciously or at random?☺️

A timely book, sharp panel @sukumar_md @MahtabNama @suroorm, and a full house despite Delhi’s rain & traffic. Grateful to have hosted (with slightly rebellious braces) Framing the Media by @pamelaphilipose at @cspsindia

1 person lynched in Narayanpur,Bokaro. Jharkhand govt has been miserably failed to curb the menace of Mob Lynching.Such incidents continue to happen due to non-implementation of the SC order @JharkhandPolice must ensure that murders are punished @HemantSorenJMM @JharkhandJanad1

War is the oldest trick in the book to blunt ideological opposition, nullify accountability & create a fleeting sense of ‘national unity’. It is a top-down project designed to dull our senses, suppress our conscience & invalidate our rationality. We must see through this haze.

Two women. Two uniforms. Two faiths.
One mission: Service to the nation. Col Sofiya Qureshi and Wg Cdr Vyomika Singh leading the Operation Sindoor briefing is more than strategy—it's a statement.
India's strength lies in unity. #OperationSindoor #IndianArmedForces #UnityInDiversity
