Outside Sabarmati Ashram, kids from a nearby school have been sitting with India and US flags since 8 AM. An exasperated student tells me, "We had to come. Teacher told us to."
A bystander I spoke to wants Modi to be PM for 25-30 years. "If that happens, there won't be any need for Indian leaders to travel abroad. Everyone will come to us. We will have the dollar, they will have rupees," he proclaimed.

#Thread on what has turned out to be a five-part investigation from Bihar on how the police have brutalised muslims for participating in the anti CAA and NRC protests in the town of Aurangabad. Some have been terrorised for merely living close to the protest site
#CAA_NRC_Protest
In the first part, firstpost.com/india/in-bihar… I wrote how the police indulged in religious profiling, barged into houses, asked Muslims if they wanted Azaadi and even manhandled women in the absence of female constables. They arrested 46 people on the day.
The second part looked at the video footage where the police are caught on camera vandalising public and private property, for which the police had blamed protestors firstpost.com/india/watch-in…

Sharing a disturbing letter written by noted Marathi playwright Jayant Pawar. He talks about two recent instances that happened in Mumbai and Pune with two theatre groups, and asks if the art community will stand up. Posting some excerpts here. It should worry us all.
#Thread
"From 9th to 11th August, Delhi-based group Jan Natya Manch (Janam) had come to Mumbai with their play "Tathagat". On August 10th, the play was staged at the Ambedkar Bhavan in Dadar. The police arrived at the venue and made inquiries about the play."
"The next day in Andheri, at the Harkat Studio, 2 CID cops from Versova police station landed at the small auditorium and started taking photographs of the set. After this, they started making enquiries about Sudhanva Deshpande, the leader of the folk-theatre group."

Three out of every four anchors (among a total of 40 anchors in Hindi channels and 47 in English channels) of debates are upper caste. Not one is Dalit, Adivasi, or OBC ~ from Oxfam India's Report: Caste Representation in Indian Media
For over 70% of their primetime debate shows, news channels draw the majority of the panellists from the upper castes.

No more than 5% of all articles in English newspapers are written by Dalits and Adivasis.
Around 72% of bylined articles on news websites are written by people from the upper castes

Only 10 of the 972 articles featuring on the cover pages of the 12 magazines under study are about issues related to caste.

#India wants to use advanced #Israeli defense technology but is unable to use it properly, which frustrates the #Israelis. The SPICE 2000 system that #Indian airforce used in its botched Feb. 26 violation of #Pakistani airspace hit trees. A bad demo for a good Israeli product.
#Israel should give the SPICE 2000 to #Pakistan. We can make a better demo of the weapon system in action than #India airforce did on Feb. 26.
An Israeli source tells @Office_AQPk without attribution in response to this tweet: "SPICE 2000 is available to some international buyers. The scope for Pakistan acquiring this system is immense and open."

Okay lets do an India/Pakistan update

Pakistan have shot down 2 Indian jets, and have closed all airspace to commercial flights.

The escalation came a one day after the Indian Air Force bombed a "terrorist training camp" inside Pakistan.
Pakistan’s PM @ImranKhanPTI currently addressing the nation:

"We didn't take action earlier without assessing our own damage from Indian airstrikes...Two Indian MiGs that entered Pakistani airspace today after our retaliation were shot down. But where do we go from here?"
In direct breach of the Geneva Convention, an Indian Air Force pilot tied up and filmed by Pakistani captors
