Reports of Taliban's discrimination against women journalists in New Delhi, India, being tolerated by the Modi government!

 11th October, 2025, Andhra Pradesh, India

Sections of the Taliban need to be checked!

The way women are treated is a priority in Indian Foreign policy.

The Constitution of India ensures the right to equality and the right to livelihood.

We cannot allow the Taliban in India's capital, New Delhi, to place unreasonable restrictions on women journalists like they reportedly just did!

We seek immediate clarifications!

How is the Modi Govt. allowing this? Are they not capable of appropriate international diplomacy?

A total red flag, calling for an immediate clamp-down on those who think this is insignificant.

What are the BJP government's alliance partners like the TDP of Andhra saying about this?

On Twitter today: My point on locus standii w.r.t. checking those attacking India

 10th May, 2025, Gurugram, India

In my humble legal opinion, at least the human beings on the civil airplane that the other side endangered by allowing them to fly after initiating trouble in the skies, would have the locus standii to seek addressal somewhere, even if at a consumer forum of some sort, initially. Obviously, the perpetrators were trying to put my country, which has the right to defend itself, into a Catch 22 situation.

A special session of Parliament is advisable: My note on social media

 30th April, 2025

I truly hope our government (of India) holds a special session of parliament as soon as possible, where all parties field speakers who make non-political speeches reiterating solidarity with the GOI, and perhaps enunciating each party's precise stand with a view to constructively advising the government and enhancing its work through the forum of our parliament. As an environmental lawyer, I am for maximum possible transparency, esp. in this nuclear-armed region of the world. It is a kind of relief to see that the term Kinetic Action is being used, as Kinetic is to be interpreted as non-nuclear in this context. I sincerely hope that not a single person from civilian populations suffers in the days to come. In my opinion, there ought to be complete clarity, brought about by investigation, regarding exactly who needs to be punished, in order to avoid collateral damage, albeit of people on the other side.
