1/5. Barbed wire, Barricades and Border Security Force to stop farmers from reaching Delhi? Wow! There’s Cooperative Federalism for you. Or is it cooperative feudalism with the subedars of Haryana saving the Dilli Darbar from a peasant uprising?

When someone from the Global North says it, its a big thing. We have been saying this for more than a decade. Our own people have told us to drop it as it is not "politically feasible" (meaning not acceptable to the white folk a couple of oceans away)

The arrogance of the Solicitor General of India is sickening. He told the Supreme Court that those speaking for our desperate migrant workers are ‘against the nation’. He forgets that the people are the nation and he is their servant.
