जब संजीव सर्राफ़ ने रेख़्ता वेबसाइट शुरू की तो एक इंजीनियर होने के नाते उनका सपना था कि यह वेबसाइट उर्दू न पढ़ सकने वालों की समझ में भी आए। शेर फ़ारसी से बदल देवनागरी और रोमन लिपि में लिखना तो ज़्यादा मुश्किल न था लेकिन वह चाहते थे कि एक डिक्शनरी भी वेबसाइट से संलग्न हो जिससे

हर शब्द का अर्थ पढ़ने वाला समझ पाए। यह एक चुनौतीपूर्ण काम था।
भला ऐसा इंसान कहाँ मिलेगा जिसे कंप्यूटर की कोडिंग इस दर्जा आती हो कि रेख़्ता जैसी शानदार वेबसाइट संभाल सके और साथ ही वह हिंदी, उर्दू, फ़ारसी, और अंग्रेज़ी की इतनी समझ रखता हो कि डिक्शनरी तैयार कर सके?

ऐसे में संजीव सर्राफ़ की मुलाक़ात हुई एक IIT Bombay से कंप्यूटर इंजीनियर और JNU में पढ़ रहे एक इंसान से। इस लड़के को न सिर्फ़ आला दर्जे की कोडिंग आती थी बल्कि यह उर्दू,फ़ारसी,अरबी,हिंदी,अंग्रेज़ी जैसी कई ज़बान जानता था। बात हुई। उर्दू की ख़िदमत की बात थी तो लड़के ने

Highlights from Adv. Tanveer Ahmed Mir's rebuttal before a Delhi Court in a Delhi Riots case against sedition accused Sharjeel Imam:

#Sedition #UAPA #SharjeelImam

Mir: A man graduating from IIT Bombay, has a good corporate package, leaves that and decides to pursue modern history, but I'm not going to say he lost his head - it's his decision as to how he wants to pursue intellectual brilliance and justify his existence in the world.

Mir says one needs to apply the Kedarnath judgment's interpretation of the sedition provision of IPC because not doing so would imply we are carrying forward a British legacy - they didn't want Indians to rise.
