Good morning folks ! We’ve raised ₹13,54,141 from one-time donors, and ₹64,450 through 123 new members. We can’t say this enough, thank you for showing up. It really means a lot to us. At the same time, we want to be honest. 123 is still far from the 800 members we need to work with some stability and do this properly. If our work has mattered to you in any way, we hope you’ll consider becoming a member. internetfreedom.in/donate

You’ve probably seen these moments play out… maybe even felt uneasy about them. The Sanchar Saathi push, the proposed Broadcasting Services (Regulation) Bill, and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act that’s quietly reshaping journalism and RTI. (1/7)

Hello @Razorpay, on your website you say it is not mandatory to have a Digilocker. But, your executive just called me to say there is no other option. I congratulate you on your doublespeak. How legal is this? @apar1984

Turkman Gate: The Delhi govt claims it is only following court orders to clear encroachments adjoining a mosque. In a city like Delhi, really? There's an entire sub-city, Sainik Farms, which is a giant encroachment. But no bulldozer dares go there. Real aim: terrorise Muslims.

Important: So NO BAIL to Umar Khaled says SC.. NO personal liberty under UAPA: this despite the fact that even the trial has not begun after more than 5 years. Meanwhile, rape and murder convict Ram Rahim has been given parole once again. Prior to his latest parole, VVIP convict Rahim has come out of prison 14 times since being convicted in 2017. Yeh hai India ka criminal justice system!😡

Where is the government's ego now? This would be a good time to show who holds power in this equation.

I am at Ahmedabad University to talk about India's first platform for mental health journalism. Why does @Mentality_IN exist? What do we hope to achieve? How can you contribute? Come say hi.
Mentality@Mentality_IN

...while also addressing newsroom burnout and the emotional toll of the profession. Participants will discuss, skill-share, and co-create approaches to strengthen both mental health reporting and personal wellbeing. More: sjai.in/programme-sjai….

If we don't speak up now, this will only continue - even seep into other aspects. Why wasn't any woman journalist present in the meeting? Did they request it? Did Indians 'self censor'?
Suhasini Haidar@suhasinih

What is even more ridiculous is that the Taliban FM is allowed to bring their abhorrent and illegal discrimination against women to India, as the government hosts the Taliban delegation with full official protocol. This isn't pragmatism, this is supplication.
