facebook.com/share/v/1LeC53k… Does "Unity in Diversity" mean anything if India still sees its own Northeast as 'other'?
That's why we are committed to telling more stories from the Northeast.

The lack of cultural documentation in many Northeastern states calls for urgent preservation efforts. Communities rely on oral traditions and many invaluable and precious cultural practices can fade. So here is our small initiative. youtube.com/@thenestories?si…

Looking forward to this curation!!!
@virsanghvi has been an invisible mentor of sorts for school kids like us who used to relish each word in the 90s that used to appear in HT under his photo and name. Didn’t know he would lead me to literature, discovered food beyond taste buds in how one writes about what we eat, of course learnt new words - culinary, gastronomical - the earliest I remember! And then when he began to write on politics and comment on society, very subtly writers like him molded kids like us into pursuing a world that operates on words.
This is his channel. He would host conversations beyond anything else to curtail or limit his signature. Am so happy that he is doing this.
All the best sir! Have subscribed and urging others to do so. Vir continues to be the legend that he has always been.

Where narratives are silenced & identities erased, we strive to tell long misrepresented & overlooked, stories of people from the Northeast. If we don't affirm our presence, racial slurs will continue to tinge the rest of India. We need help @JM_Scindia

Pu Vungzagin Valte will be remembered for his outstanding service to the people of Manipur. He worked diligently towards bringing a positive difference in society. His interventions in the assembly were always insightful. Pained by his passing. Condolences to his family, friends and supporters.

Sharp Edge: Can there be any bigger violation of the spirit of the Constitution than to keep a man in jail for five years with no trial in sight?
The judiciary is giving the government a free hand to make citizens live in a state of fear.
'Indian judiciary is letting citizens down. When liberty is in danger, judges are looking away'

Thank you for the inspiring narrative about the Northeast, sir. Your detailed insights are enlightening.
Let's not forget that the Northeast's greatest asset is its people. Their stories, experiences, and perspectives are what bring this region to life and deserve to be heard.
Northeast holds key to a $30-trillion economy…
I pen down my article on how the Northeast is transforming into India’s strategic gateway to Southeast Asia — powering trade, connectivity, and our $30-trillion ambition towards a Viksit Bharat.

Sunday story that caught the eye: RSS mouthpiece Organiser published an article saying the ‘Catholic Church is the largest non-governmental land owner’ in the country. When it was claimed by political opponents that the Sangh parivar was now gunning for the church after Waqf, the article was quietly pulled down. Truth is, Sangh has always been uncomfortable with minority institutions. If church/waqf land is the target why not a SINGLE easy to implement law for ALL religious properties instead of singling out one or two religions ? That would be the CONSTITUTIONAL thing to do. (Post script: the number of govt officials/ministers, their kids who are products of a Christian school/college education is a very LONG one)
