    Inside the ECI’s ‘black box’: IE investigation proves print journalism still has bite (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    An explosive scoop on dissent within the Election Commission shows that mainstream print media hasn’t lost its edge. Mainstream print media “abhi jinda hai” (still alive). That’s the conclusion we can draw from the September 23 investigative report helmed by Ritika Chopra of The Indian Express on dissent within the Election Commission of India (ECI) over how the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls was being conducted. Also, those who thought the days of print media are ov

    Nepal flash floods: When disaster becomes content (opens the original)

    Read excerpt

    From sensationalised Indian TV broadcasts to casual scrolling past human grief, Kalpana Sharma examines how crisis journalism lost its soul in the Nepal floods. August 26, 2026, will be remembered by the people of Nepal for a long time, a day when a wall of water, rocks, ice, and cement cascaded down from the mountains and swept away bridges, hydropower stations, settlements and thousands of people living alongside the Trisuli River.

    Some stories illustrate that journalism, as it ought to be practised, still exists. July 20, 2026, is a day that will be remembered for a long time. Not just because of the massive response to the call given by the Cockroach Janta Party to march to Parliament. Not just because of the recorded evidence of police brutality on young, mostly peaceful protestors. But because it has shifted the conversation in India from the one-way communication of the people in power to one where a generation has an

    The media missed the biggest story: How a generation fed on consumerism and hate found its voice (opens the original)

    The protest has convincingly established not just the irrelevance of legacy TV channels but also their continued abandonment of basic journalistic norms. There were broken heads and broken limbs, but their spirit remained unbroken. If there is anything we can conclude about the ongoing student protests in New Delhi and other cities like Mumbai, is that there is a churning amongst India’s youth that has taken everyone by surprise – politicians, mainstream media and perhaps even the thousands
