Pakistan is willing to make peace with India and other immediate neighbours under its first National Security Policy.
thewire.in/south-asia/pak…
The five-year-policy document, which will span 2022-26, is being touted by the Pakistan government as the country's first-ever strategy paper of its kind.

The policy leaves the door open for trade and business ties with India without the final settlement of the longstanding Kashmir dispute, provided there is progress in talks.

"We are not seeking hostility with India for the next 100 years. The new policy seeks peace with immediate neighbours".

What do you need to know about #YatiNarsinghanand?

A close relationship with @KapilMishra_IND, a massive reach on social media and backing by several inflammatory individuals on the far right keep the hate machine going.

@KapilMishra_IND Why is it that #YatiNarsinghanand is left free to spread hatred? What explains the tolerance of the police to their open, continuous provocation of violence against a whole community? | wrote @alishan_jafri and @Apoorvanand__ in April last year.

@KapilMishra_IND @alishan_jafri @Apoorvanand__ In August last year, after the police allegedly refused to in file an FIR on complaints lodged against communal speeches made by far right leaders Yati Narsinghanand and Suraj Pal Amu, the Delhi court even asked for an action taken report. | @IsmatAraa

EXCLUSIVE | #TekFog Part 3:

How did TekFog operators use a network of right wing Twitter accounts to disseminate communally polarising narratives during the #DelhiRiots2020?

The network graph centered @KapilMishra_IND.

Full story: thewire.in/tekfog/en/3.ht… Image
@KapilMishra_IND What is this network?

We created a list with all the Twitter accounts that the source claimed to directly control, as well as all the accounts that were following or being followed by these accounts.

thewire.in/tekfog/en/3.ht… Image
@KapilMishra_IND Additionally, accounts that tweeted the targeted hashtags were also added to the list, resulting in a set of some 102,000 Twitter accounts.

Around 40,500 accounts were filtered that demonstrated high activity levels while trending hashtags.

EXCLUSIVE | Tek Fog Part 3

What do the Tablighi Jamaat, the Delhi riots and the harassment of women journalists have in common?

Tek Fog. Here's the third installment of @kaulayush and @onosmosis's report.

thewire.in/tekfog/en/3.ht… Image
@kaulayush @onosmosis 1. Harassing journos:

Tek Fog appears to have been used particularly effectively against women journalists active on social media whose work or posts run counter to the BJP's official narrative.

How does this 'abuse' feature work?

thewire.in/tekfog/en/3.ht…
@kaulayush @onosmosis The whistleblower explained that first, the app's operators access a database of individuals to identify persons to target.

It includes students, journalists, comedians, film actors, social media influencers, spiritual leaders and others...

The last few years under chief CM Adityanath may have significantly altered how the most backward of communities perceive the BJP.

The electoral outcome in UP might depend on it. Here's how. | @AjoyAshirwad explains.

thewire.in/politics/obc-n…
@AjoyAshirwad In the last few elections, the BJP managed to consolidate the most backward classes – also the largest chunk of the electorate, believed to be more than 30% of the total number of voters – in its favour by mounting a campaign against the dominant Yadavs.
thewire.in/politics/obc-n…
@AjoyAshirwad However, "By placing a Thakur leader Adityanath at the helm of affairs, BJP re-imposed its perception of an upper caste-driven party among the backward communities," @manoj_jogi21 told @AjoyAshirwad.

Police also issued notices to two other key accused, Yati Narsinghanand Saraswati and Sadhvi Annapurna, for appearance before it.

Do only those who embrace death at Modi's call, or in a cause dear to him, may claim any right to his sympathetic consideration? | Badri Raina
thewire.in/politics/naren…
A full week has passed since Meghalaya governor Satya Pal Malik disclosed Modi's infamous retort when he brought up the death of 500 farmers in a private meeting.
thewire.in/politics/naren…
Neither Modi nor the Prime Minister's Office have sought to deny the words Malik attributed to him – "Mere liye mare hain? (did [the farmers] die for me?)"
