THE West Asian war has pushed world oil prices well beyond $100 per barrel. The Indian government, which had kept domestic prices of oil products unchanged until the elections to several state legislatures had been completed, has now started raising their prices; it has already raised prices in three rounds and is no doubt going to raise them further.

THE treatment of the flotilla activists by Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir was shocking only to those who continue to clothe colonial violence in the soft language of security. There is now a mountain of evidence before humanity: Gaza has become not merely a place under siege, but a geography of calculated despair, where starvation and bombardment have been converted into instruments of...
This letter is to apprise you about the continuing sit-in of the workers in front of the MRO facilities of a former Air India subsidiary, AIESL and now a PSU under the Ministry of Civil Aviation in Delhi, Chennai, Mumbai, Kolkata and Nagpur for the last eight days against the brazen anti-worker policies of the management.

THE judgement delivered by the Supreme Court upholding the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls is a travesty of justice.
