After party chief Ajoy Ghosh's death in '62, CPI was in an internal ideological bind & power struggle b/w Dange & EMS-led factions. @vandana_menon @LaeeqHumra & my latest long form comes from four months of research, interviews & National Archives visits

CPI was first communist party in world to win election. Then came its identity crisis and fall

Within a decade of coming to power in Kerala in 1957, the cracks in the Communist Party were showing. A British 'spy', Nehru, and China made them wider.

2/12 Cheap labor. Yes, you can have a maid, a cook and a driver. You don't have to make an appointment for services. UrbanClap a massage or salon at home. Food / grocery delivery is cheap and quick. Uber is affordable. Trainers, babysitters, you name it.

@discostang Served a year-long academic suspension after flunking multiple courses in second year. Changed my major post suspension and took a little over two years to finish degree and recover GPA. Takes a while to bounce back and find your feet but can be done. Lmk if you need to talk.

Lol spare me the decolonial bullshit. We had 76 years to "tell our own story" and proceeded to sign the lease away to the most anti-truth, anti-historical fact members of our society. Their whole idea of govt is about revising school textbooks, and smearing dissenters under UAPA.

This is why it is essential for Indians to tell their own story. Do not let others define your story for you

@vishu_chiku Bottom line is both Bairstow and Chandimal are historically inconsistent af players and should be treated as such in a similar breath. Chandimal was outfoxed by Travis Head a few weeks ago ffs

Land redistribution in E Asia (Japan, China, Korea) fuelled their economic dynamism, a sequence missed here But we did redistribute our cricketing resources, from metropolitan centres to grassroots, finally replacing pitiful medium pace spinners for real world-class fast bowlers

The sun is still out in Dharamsala after England won the toss and elected to bat first, but those forecasted overcast conditions have already engulfed the western portions of the ground in particular. The pitch was reported to be a belter but swing should come into play #INDvsENG

The forecast for Day 1 tomorrow is dodgy with a reasonable chance of rain affecting play, but pre-match box office pickup time gives us a vintage view of the Dhauladhar mountain range overlooking Dharamsala #INDvsENG

"'83' is the cinematic equivalent of military medium pace bowling — simple and often effective, but a far cry from the mind-blowing presentation that Kapil Dev and his team deserved." My review of Ranveer Singh and Kabir Khan's latest release #83 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

In 83, Ranveer Singh captures Kapil Dev’s mannerisms well. But director Kabir Khan falls short

On a scale of the farcical ‘Victory’, to the powerful ‘Iqbal’, ‘83’ ranks straight down the middle in India’s cricket film library.

Apparently Kissinger and Modi were good friends. They often praised each other. They met a few times. Kissinger was a complex character when it came to his experiences in/with India and South Asia.

The tail end of Shane Warne's test career, his rivalry with Murali and his IPL heroics were a big part of my childhood, so it felt appropriate to profile him. Australia XI on the other side looks stacked with him & Marsh now 🙏🏾 Do give it a read 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

The many hats Shane Warne wore — ‘king of spin’, maverick, colourful commentator

The most successful leg-spinner of all time passed away Friday aged 52. He leaves behind a towering legacy of magical skills & a reputation of forever speaking his mind.

The parallels are not the same but getting very Soviet-Afghan War vibes from this Test series. The Afghans had just one strategy, to wear their opponents down till the point when they eventually just gave up trying. A classic way of winning by using attrition as your weapon.

'Servant of the People' seamlessly combines a linear plot & sharp banter with an everyman message & references requiring a rudimentary understanding of a post-Yanukovych Ukraine. My piece on Zelenskyy's sitcom for @ThePrintIndia

Why's Ukraine President Zelenskyy a winner? Watch TV comedy 'Servant of the People' for answer

The show represented the comedy career of Zelenskyy, who had done it all from winning dance shows to playing Paddington Bear and Napoleon.
