Being the victims of political arrogance - may the reason and compassion prevail. These escalations don't serve any purpose, except in creating fear and anxiety. One doesn't need a 56-inch chest to breathe, let not political pride come at the cost of peace.

South-Asian mentality on borders and in Air. They kill innocents on either side and call it collateral damage, do hell to your nomenclature.

How Purdah, the idea of female seclusion came into being & spread across North India, Delhi Sultanate, and Mughal Emperor. Little lengthy, few disagreement because of my zero knowledge of history, but worth a read.

One of the other indicators of male chauvinism is non-acknowledgement of child care. It is unpaid, unfair, and leads to a disproportionate burden on women.

1/ This graph from Jon Bruner tells an important story: America's current dominance in science only began after the mid-1930s, when persecuted scientists began fleeing universities in Germany and then elsewhere in occupied Europe.

In English we say: No matter how much of juggling around or trying to sound different, people always return to their steady state - to who they truly are. In Kashmiri we say: Khaslet cxen badlan

Dada was an indelible part of the DSE fraternity for generations of students faculty members. The coffee house where he first worked, later co-owned, was the site of vibrant discussions & countless love stories. Dada’s memory with names, faces, personal details was phenomenal. 🙏

Could you recommend any good online resources for learning #Marathi? I'm moving to #Mumbai next month and I don't want to be caught up in this language controversy. I’d rather not risk facing any trouble or becoming a target of assault, it’s something I simply can’t afford.

This weird obsession with a particular city as an embodiment of our history and heritage is shallow exceptionalism/condescension. Srinagar is no synonym to Kashmir - the valley is far more diverse, with many other regions that have their own richness and much to offer.

A key methodological innovation in recent DiD literature is the ETWFE estimator in non-linear setting. It preserves basic structure of TWFE, but allows for TE heterogeneity using cohort-by-year interactions,making it broadly applicable in settings that rely on TWFE Jeffrey Wooldridge
