Imagine protesting a mine, only to discover your signature, your deceased parents’ signatures, and almost the entire village’s have allegedly been forged to manufacture consent for it.
An explosive investigation by @mhassanism !

Couple of things that stood out: Veeramani was well-networked and in his line of business- mining- he'd have to be. He headed industry bodies for years, calls the VIT founder his friend, though VIT website now distances himself from Veeramani (see story for details) 1/2
Who is Gem Granites’ Veeramani, and how did he become a mining baron?
How influential is he, and why has his arrest in a POCSO case raised many eyebrows?

The Election Commission of India is under fire like never before.
The SIR has struck 13 crore names off draft rolls, putting the EC at the centre of intense public debate over its role in deciding who gets to vote — and who doesn’t.
HOWEVER, what nobody knew: through that same period, some of the sharpest questions were being asked from inside.
Out today, after months of work. Our #ExpressInvestigation 🧵

Update on ‘Agra’, the film: We’re being denied shows because of the so called ‘big blockbusters’ and because small films ‘don’t fit into’ multiplex chain programming. It’s up to you the audience now! Speak up and tag the chains. Say that you want to see the film!

“The 1959 Revolution marked a break from post-1804 fantasies of US designs on Cuba becoming part of the US, shifting the island toward sovereignty — a move the US found unacceptable.”
@vijayprashad to me in @jacobin on Chomsky’s & his new book ON CUBA
👇👇👇
For over six decades, Cuba has withstood US sanctions and pressure. Noam Chomsky and Vijay Prashad's latest work shows how the embargo is less a response to Cuba’s policies than a long-term effort to undermine its sovereignty and revolutionary ideals. jacobin.com/2024/11/cuba-emb…
Sandeep (Sonu), a Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan superfan, presents this tasveer to as many people as he can. He brought me one all the way from Moga to Mumbai!
"Teri yaad ibadat meri" is the Punjabi qawwali referenced here. Memories of Nusrat saab are Sandeep's prayer.
The busiest collector of Nusrat memorabilia, Sandeep was the subject of my piece published some Sundays ago in The Hindu. Pegged to the release of the lost album Chain of Light.
ICYMI, do read about a borderless devotion that has intensified from hobby to passion to madness.
Favourite parts of working on this story: the numberless free trips to higher realms courtesy NFAK, and Sonu's quite quotable quotes.

While a ‘lost album’ shines the spotlight on the late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, a shrine in Punjab offers a glimpse of his borderless legacy. @ranjitag writes.

So glad @ranjitag has written this v good story on a part of Bombay Instagram that drives me around the twist: the broker-influencer. business-standard.com/indust…
You may have seen their lavish house tours on YouTube and Instagram. Now read the story of home brokers who are gaining celebrity as realty influencers. Published in Business Standard.
Covid made showing properties through video common practice for brokers. Soon housing search portals added this feature. Now developers are roping in realty influencers to tour their projects, and clients across geographies are DM-ing with interest.
Meet some of them here. Do like, share, comment, follow, subscribe, etc. business-standard.com/indust…
