Been learning something new - how to build a chatbot! Feels like every org has a chatbot these days, but building one as a learning resource for oft-ignored middle-tier bureaucrats has felt timely and promising. Long way to go but grateful for the opportunity.

Elections come & go Politics must be proved beyond electoral wins & losses, in dialectics which have been triggered by chosen praxis This is what makes this one by @NeelanjanSircar & @beejoshi a superb reported & yet theoretical take on WB body politic

NMMS didn’t eliminate corruption in #MGNREGA. It restructured it. From fake entries → to denied entries From invisible leakages → to visible exclusion Now, the biggest challenge isn’t just corruption— it’s whether workers can even access their right to work. A thoughtful piece by our colleagues @samalochana & @KuruvaKvs unpacks how these shifts are playing out on the ground. If accountability comes at the cost of access, the system needs rethinking. @thewire_in @MoRD_GoI Full article: thewire.in/labour/nmms-di… #MGNREGA #PublicPolicy #DigitalGovernance

In this state-wide program, we’re going straight to the middle-tier to improve evidence-based decision making. We’ve designed and are rolling out year-long multi-modal learning strategies to support officers learn as they do in the field. (2/3)

Super excited to share our new partnership with the Government Innovation Lab, Government of Meghalaya! There’s plenty of #DataForDevelopment - but our governments lack the #capacity to use it. This only gets worse at #decentralised levels of govt.

What a waste of Parliament’s time, public money No crisis, urgency but called special session Half baked Bills with all kinds of lacunae No numbers for 2/3s majority Live shouting of 50% like used car salesmen Wasting time of MPs of WB, TN #DelimitationHumiliation

I can’t stress how important it is to understand that this is the result of a deep structural flaw in the Indian Constitution’s design, and not just a temporary “aberration.” Brief thread. 👇🏼
