The two-page booklet "Aama Bapuji: Eka Jhalaka" (Our Bapuji: A Glimpse) -- published on the occasion of 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi -- presents a brief account of his teachings, works and links with Odisha, while also stating that he "died due to accidental reasons in a sudden sequence of events on January 30, 1948 at Delhi's Birla House".

PhD student Shubham Tiwari, who is also taking part in the protests, told ThePrint: “In this department, there are no teachers, all are our gurus. Everyone keeps a choti (tuft of hair on the head), we touch their feet and participate in havan (a ritual). If a Muslim professor is accorded a place in the department, then it will be open discrimination against the students. A Muslim can’t teach us our dharma.”

Jagan Reddy’s closing of the Amaravati project is much more damaging than George Fernandes pushing IBM & Coca Cola out in the 1970s. Massive damage to India’s credibility as a destination for foreign investment in infrastructure.

Reversing the slowdown is going to be very difficult in the face of whimsical and capricious government decisions.

Ambedkar explaining why Muslims (or any minorities) should never mobilise on the basis of religion. That will be an excuse for majority to mobilise too and in a democracy they have numbers and it would be a disaster for the religious minority .
