My new book, SPEAKING WITH NATURE, releases today. It is available here: amazon.in/Speaking-Natur… and in bookstores. It features ten remarkable individuals who, long before the climate crisis, wrote with passion and insight about environmental sustainability and social justice.

The Prime Minister must immediately announce that there is going to be no National Register of Citizens. That simple and single announcement will do more to restore peace and trust than anything else. The country needs a healing touch, and from the top.

If @JM_Scindia had a spine, he would have done what @MamataOfficial and @PawarSpeaks did—set up his own party.

Through this act, the Supreme Court has let itself down, and has let the Republic down too. A dark day for Indian democracy.

"I do not want India to be a country in which millions of people say 'yes' to one man. I want a strong opposition". Thus Jawaharlal Nehru, speaking in 1950, the year the Republic was founded.

A sitting Prime Minister who speaks so cold bloodedly of starting a nuclear war: merely to win re-election: indiatoday.in/elections/lok-… Let’s be absolutely clear; this man does not care for India, Indians, the globe, humanity. All he cares is for his own gaddi.

Jawaharlal Nehru to Chief Ministers, 1954: "It is always the duty and obligation of the majority to win the goodwill of the minorities by fair and even generous treatment". This precious maxim is now violated everyday, all over India, which is why the Republic is in peril.
