Empathy, the ability to understand and share others’ hopes and struggles, is crucial for a judge to make fair decisions. It is essential for conflict resolution, understanding, & forming connections with others. #Madras HC Justice N Anand Venkatesh writes buff.ly/457f7xU

Today in the bom HC we argued that private unaided schools cannot be exempt from providing 25% seats to children from weaker sections/disadvantaged groups under the RTE act if there is a govt school in the vicinity (1 km radius in Maharashtra’s case)

You know the way you suddenly can’t live without 15 minute grocery deliveries? That’s the exact way clients will insist they can’t function if their accountants don’t deliver overnight. Without labour protection, it’s a race to the bottom where we kill workers for things…

That state legitimacy has become so divorced from the capacity to provide basic public goods isn't due to an inept political/bureaucratic complex. Its down to the most selfish class of social elites, who have no conception of public goods, let alone any interest in demanding them
