Palace have taken 13 shots in the first half against Brentford and that is too concerning for me as an Arsenal fan.

This was from @TeltumbdeA presentation, wanna guess from when? 14 years back.

In an open moment with a colleague expecting a baby he said there are three things you can’t trust in America “women, work and weather”. I have heard the same opinion from my dad. It’s painful to hear it from people close to you.

It’s hard to imagine anyone not loving bossa nova.

BREAKING A sensational 5 page statement released by the mother of a minor girl in Telangana has triggered massive political and public outrage. In the letter, the mother has made serious allegations against Bandi Bhagirath, alleging that her minor daughter was emotionally manipulated, pressured into consuming alcohol, and sexually assaulted. The mother further alleges that attempts are now being made to falsely project the minor victim as a major in order to weaken and divert the investigation. The statement also claims that the family has been facing continuous intimidation, political pressure, social media defamation, and harassment. According to the mother, when the family approached the police seeking justice, they were allegedly made to wait for hours, ignored, and instead faced counter cases. The family says they are living through fear, humiliation, and mental trauma while the accused continues to remain free. Questioning whether ordinary citizens can ever get justice against powerful political influence, the mother has demanded protection for her daughter and strict legal action against those responsible. These are allegations made in a public statement released by the victim girl’s mother. Investigation is underway. @TelanganaDGP @revanth_anumula @TelanganaCMO @NCPCR_ @KanoongoPriyank @NCWIndia @sharmarekha #Telangana #BandiBhagirath #LawAndOrder #Justice #TelanganaPolice #WomenSafety

What is clear is that beyond party affiliation, the traditional landlord caste entitlement to women’s bodies survives Why did the police in a Congress state allow the perpetrator to escape?

‘India lacks a system of recording heat-related mortality comprehensively and doctors acknowledge that the numbers may be higher than the official count.’ A wrenching account by @anumayhem of the migrant workers who have been most ravaged by climate-induced extreme heat in Delhi.

- A factory shuts overnight. - A worker dies worrying about how to feed his children. - Another worker spends almost 10 years going from one labour office to another, still waiting for justice. Over 1 lakh pending cases: Noida burned after years of silence in labour courts Workers say the system meant to protect them has instead trapped them in endless hearings while families fall into debt, illness and hunger. From the Moser Baer shutdown in Noida to sanitation workers allegedly underpaid and sacked for demanding wages, we attempted to uncover the human cost of India’s broken labour justice system.

Audacity! Nine Dalits had sacrificed their lives to force the Modi govt to strengthen constitutional safeguards for SC,ST in 2018. But supreme court is back on it, seeing an opportunity with increasing "Hindutva-isation" of Dalits. RSS is working through back door.
