The arrest of @zoo_bear is another attempt to intimidate and silence the media. This sort of intimidation should have no place in a democracy. Release @zoo_bear

The second half of June saw the rupee’s value touching record lows below 78 to the US dollar. But this absolute low should not take away from the long-term decline the #rupee has been experiencing, writes @Jayati1609 and @cpc01.

In solidarity with @zoo_bear, one of the silver linings to Indian journalism in the last few years, despite the immense personal risk to him. Dark day in India in a string of dark days.

Release Teesta, Sreekumar & others.
Threat to all those who dare question role of State/ govts for their role in communal violence.
This SC verdict questions human rights jurisprudence. In 2004 SC termed Gujarat govt leaders: 'modern day Neros'.

It's already so incredibly bad, everyone, and this at just 1.3°C of mean global heating. It's all caused by the fossil fuel industry, and it is irreversible. It's time to end fossil fuels #EmergencyMode

Deeply concerned by reports of #WHRD Teesta Setalvad being detained by Anti Terrorism Sqaud of Gujarat police. Teesta is a strong voice against hatred and discrimination. Defending human rights is not a crime. I call for her release and an end to persecution by #Indian state.

Gujarat police followed up the SC judgement on Gujarat killings by arresting the petitioner, Teesta Setalvad. The arrest follows after Amit Sha`s interview to ANI on the events in 2002. Withdraw the false charges, release Teesta.

Safe #abortion is health care. It saves lives. Restricting it drives women and girls towards unsafe abortions, resulting in complications, even death. The evidence is irrefutable. https://bit.ly/3CNU7Ne #RoeVsWade

There is a real risk that multiple famines will be declared this year - and 2023 could be even worse.

We need strong political and private sector leadership for a coordinated multilateral response.

We cannot accept mass hunger and starvation in the 21st century.
