One of the big myths about Indians is that we value education. This is simply not true: no education of any kind is respected. IITs/IIMs/medical schools have a measure of prestige because of their students' salaries. The money is respected, the learning is irrelevant.

One of the most common “insults” Indians have for PhD students nowadays is “look, he is still in college at 30” It tells you what kind of morons we are producing. That’s why if this is a path you are on, complete your PhD & take that 3 checked-in bags Emirates flight out-ASAP.🤣

I am a proud member of a party whose work speaks. Are you influenced by parties involved in 1984 or 2002 genocides ? We have no skeletons in our closet, that's why I can counter your baseless attacks with confidence.

So, the Delhi police is now straight-up abducting journalists for doing their job. A place where journalism is a criminalized is on the fast-track to textbook fascism.

Having grown up around them I can confirm Kishor's meltdown ("show me the video where I have tweeted this"LOL) is such typical Bihari uncle behavior. Most of them feel like they invented shouting and pointing fingers.

Very serious allegations (fraud, royalty-theft, unauthorised publishing) against Vani/Rajkamal. At the very least, they have treated a good man (and one of India's greatest writers alive) with utter contempt. I'm just shaking with anger, to be honest.

"I didn't know they were cheating me." One of Hindi's most-loved writers, Vinod K Shukla speaks against his publishers, Vani & Rajkamal, for paying less royalty. Vani has his 3 books, with a Sahitya akademi winner novel, plus 2 ebooks. Paid Rs 1.35 lakh in 25 yrs. 5k a yr.

According to the Caravan, Shekhar Gupta drew a salary of Rs 10 crore/yr *eight* years ago. The average freelancer earns Rs 4,000 or so from 1 article at The Print today. Even a conservative estimate means Mr Gupta's DAILY salary can finance 100 freelance articles, every day.

How can students be expected to sit at home and attend online classes when this is what they have to go through? Even a death in the family is not allowed to be excuse for absence. Note that there is mandatory 85% attendance rule. Why are faculty allowed to enforce it now?

Siccing your fanbase onto a film critic's handle *is* targeted harassment. And if you don't realise how online abuse becomes IRL violence ( especially when women are at the receiving end) I don't know what to say to you. I pray that nobody you know faces this!

@aditya_mani_jha Can you plz stop being so overdramatic? They're just boasting about the film's BO success, and the critic answered back in her own way. No one is “weaponizing“ anything or threatening any harm. The replies too are just people having fun, with harmless jokes and jibes.

Sidharth sir is correct, of course. But with due respect, it's a little demoralising for writers if Editors tweet like this. Why can't The Wire pay their writers better? Just saying 'writers are paid crap' and then proceeding to build their brand with dirt-cheap labour....
