The rubbish criticism of Mandani eating with his hands, reminds me of when the oh-so-aware Oprah was so stunned that Indians eat food with their hands! firstpost.com/entertainment/…

Had spoken about Oprah's shock that Indians actually eat with their hands, during her visit to Jaipur in 2012. Just because you are rich and have rich friends, doesn't mean you are culturally informed or aware. theworld.org/tags/people/ra…

Wars have been fought over it. East India Company's bottom-line depended on it. And it's a sublime ingredient. My column on khus khus-posto-poppyseed. There's my recipe for alu posto included as well.

“By 1516, Barbosa had listed opium as a key export from India. In 1668, French traveller François Bernier observed that the Rajputs consumed opium as a stimulant on the eve of a battle –– this may explain why they lost most of them.” ⁦Brown Sahiba⁩ indianexpress.com/article/lifest…

Astonishing. Explosive report from FT on the global consulting firm Boston Consulting Group, who were said to have modelled the costs of “relocating” Palestinians from Gaza. Complicity in a potential crime against humanity and/or act of genocide Boston Consulting Group. ft.com/content/c0e661…
