This sensible piece in The Times Of India should settle the current social media debate, following the Bengaluru techie suicide, on women "misusing" laws to punish men.

14 months of mass, wanton and deliberate destruction of housing in Gaza, a domicide like no other, will be a permanent stain on all of humanity. The world has failed the Palestinians completely. What a way to end 2024!
