#Update on the unprovoked campaign of #slander & #communalhate launched against me by some practising #advocates. After a 300-day inquiry, #NHRC has closed the case as #DelhiPolice found no grounds for action. The truth is now on record.  Accountability is next. My Statement👇

Book review | Voices in the Wind by Namita Gokhale & Malashri Lal This collection of folk stories captures the rhythm, diversity, and collective imagination of the Himalayan world, writes @mayankparichha newindianexpress.com/lifestyle/book… @santwana99 @NewIndianXpress @etteth @PrabhuChawla

The pocket books of Surendra Mohan Pathak, Ved Prakash Sharma and others once kept fans hooked. Begampur Se Dariyaganj by @yv_post is a history of Hindi pulp fiction that's almost as intriguing as the genre it studies. Review by @mayankparichha hindustantimes.com/s/1S8zhfE

"Few outside Punjab know about this town that slipped to the periphery when the Radcliffe Line was drawn. Perhaps that’s set to change..." - My report on the Ferozepur Heritage, Military and Literary Festival, 2026 hindustantimes.com/s/1STn4rI

सरलता चाहिए? एम डैश। गंभीरता चाहिए? एम डैश। अर्थ नहीं सूझ रहा? दो एम डैश ठेल दो। किसी भी कथन के भीतर अनेक अर्थ-स्तर छिपे होते हैं। भाषा उन्हें समय देती है। अर्थ अपनी एक लय में खुलते हैं, जैसे समझ धीरे-धीरे आकार लेती हो। उस लय को थामने, उसे दिशा देने का सबसे सहज औज़ार कभी एम डैश हुआ करता था। ...लेकिन अटूट सफलता अक्सर दूसरों की आँखों में खटकती है। यहाँ भी यही हुआ है। लेखकों और संपादकों का प्रिय एम डैश—अपनी धार और क़ीमत खो बैठा। • मयंक जैन परिच्छा (hindwi.org/bela/viraam-ch…) #hindwibela #mayankjainparichcha #viram #emdash #longdash

ये कहानियाँ आपको छोटे शहरों की सच्चाई, व्यंग्य और किरदारों के बीच इतना खींच लेंगी कि आप बीच में छोड़ ही नहीं पाएँगे। मयंक जैन परिच्छा की लेखनी मज़ाक के भीतर छुपी गहराई से एक नया नज़रिया देती है—जो सोचने पर मजबूर कर दे। @mayankparichha

सम्मेलनों का असली उद्देश्य कभी संवाद नहीं रहा, उद्देश्य हमेशा से टाइमपास ही रहा है, चाहे वह पर्यावरण की COP हो, या किसी क़िस्म की शांति वार्ता। वहाँ बस अच्छा खाना, बढ़िया चाय हो—फिर क्या कहने। मज़े ही मज़े! • मयंक जैन परिच्छा (hindwi.org/bela/sahityots…) #hindwi #hindwibela #mayankjainparichha #LiteratureFestival
