A Long journey came to end today ( without reaching destination).

In February 2024, I wrote for @down2earthindia about the Committee on the MSP After months of the formation of the committee • 35 meetings held • ₹35 lakh spent • No report submitted • No timeline for submitting the report downtoearth.org.in/agriculture/tw…

In Gujarat, the issue of prohibition has once again moved to the centre of political debate. The Congress has launched the Jan Akrosh Yatra, with Congress MLAs making sharp allegations against the state government over what they describe as the easy availability of liquor and drugs despite the official ban. The opposition has accused the BJP government of maintaining a “selective prohibition” regime that exists largely on paper while illegal access continues on the ground. @suchak reports. Read here: thequint.com/news/politics/…

Information obtained through RTI applications and data tabled in the Gujarat Assembly suggest that Gujarat’s prohibition regime functions through selective legal access rather than a uniform ban. @suchak reports. Read: thequint.com/news/politics/…

Liquor is prohibited in Gujarat, yet a section of society can legally access it through permit provisions. How does this system work, who gets access, and how has it expanded over the years? I explored these in my latest long-read for @TheQuint thequint.com/news/politics/…

@AdityaMenon22 Thank you.

Dry state, wet reality. Documents reveal how loopholes are weakening prohibition in Gujarat. Excellent story by @suchak thequint.com/news/politics/…

The perils of playing IPL on lifeless pitches, smashing helpless bowlers without fear or mercy & becoming IPL Hulks! And then struggling in decent pitches abroad! #IndvsIRE

. @MyNykaa is simply a Fraudster. They approved return, never picked up the product, then cancelled the return. Months later: no refund issued. Playing email email only. Wasting time. @jagograhakjago - Take serious cognizance of such practices.

@baxiabhishek Better option would be x.com/i/status/20671…

Considering it is mainstream and normalized now, why can't we host auction of MLA/MPs for horse-trading like the IPL auction? Make it transparent for the citizens. Make it an annual event, and put it on TV.

Many years ago, around 12–15 years back, I wrote a satire piece that there should be a stock-exchange-like platform to trade MLAs and MPs. Looking at the direction politics is moving today, that satire may soon start looking like reality. #operationtiger #shivsena

@roadscholarz My second appeal regarding the same is pending for hearing in CICI

RD Minister @ChouhanShivraj wrote in The Hindu on 24/12/25 that “The VB-G RAM G Bill was preceded by extensive consultations with State governments and multi-stakeholder discussions.” But the MoRD firmly refuses to share any information on these “consultations”, even under RTI.
