Congratulations Nilanjana Roy 📚🦊. Thoroughly enjoyed your thought-provoking ‘Reading the world’ column in the FT Weekend of 31 May/1 June 2025. She touches on, with examples seasonal rhythms, the ragamala concept of the subcontinent’s arts and much more. Required weekend reading.

A little announcement, friends.✨ I have a book coming out this Nov with the brilliant historian Romila Thapar! Working on it, and getting to know Prof. Thapar, has been a most wonderful experience. Early details in this press release from Penguin India. penguin.co.in/newsroom/pengu…

Zohran Mamdani is running a modern version of Fiorello La Guardia’s 1930s NYC mayoral campaigns: with bold plans to make the city humane and functional; multilingual appeals to the working class; and a potent determination to put oligarchs in their place. thenation.com/article/politi…

महाराष्ट्र चुनाव का रहस्य जारी है। अभी तक ख़त्म नहीं हुआ है। चुनाव आयोग को पारदर्शी तरीक़े से सवालों का जवाब देना चाहिए था। पारदर्शी और विश्वसनीय तरीक़े से। राहुल गांधी के इस लेख के बाद एक एक बिंदु पर मुख्य चुनाव आयुक्त भी लिख सकते हैं। जब भी लगता है कि सब इसे भूल गए हैं, मुद्दा

#ThisDayThatYear On this day in 1893, a young Gandhi was expelled from a first-class compartment at the Pietermaritzburg railway station in South Africa, despite holding a valid ticket. This act of racial discrimination became a pivotal moment in not just the history of India

a longish interview - themes that came up include: selfhood and literature, left-liberal follies, the 'cultural right', gandhi, and what the term 'karnataka dharma' could possible mean (or come to mean) scroll.in/article/108290… via Scroll.in
