As temperatures routinely breach the 45 to 48-degree Celsius mark across the subcontinent, the language used by the state and corporate media to describe this crisis remains safely analytical, warning that heat stress could put up to 4.5% of India’s GDP at risk by 2030, equivalent to an abstract 150 to 250 billion dollars.

THE Chief Justice of India compared unemployed youth to “cockroaches,” saying that “some of them become media, some become social media, RTI activists” and “start attacking everyone.” The remark was made by Justice Surya Kant on May 15, 2026, during a Supreme Court hearing on a lawyer’s petition concerning senior advocate designation.

Several state governments are also prepared to operationalise the codes in line with the central rules.

RSS/BJP Conspiracy to Bring Adivasis in Hindutva Fold

THE Janjati Suraksha Manch (JSM) and Vanvasi Kalyan Ashram, both RSS progeny, recently held a conclave — “Janjati Sanskritik Samagham” — attended by thousands of Adivasis nationwide. The stated occasion was the 150th anniversary of legendary hero Birsa Munda.
