With their decisive voice – No to cruel creditors – the people in Greece have stood for democracy with dignity. It’s a victory for people; it’s a victory for democracy; it’s a victory for dignity. It’s a victory in people’s political fight against the brutal bankers who were bleeding Greece white. It’s a verdict against austerity, poverty, loot of public property. It’s historic

We need factual information almost immediately, that’s generally available to enable an interconnected change to be in time to avoid the high possibility of billions of deaths. It’s a matter of the wealthy few to realise their defencelessness in the face of global warming and associated danger, and that money may even be a liability for them. Presently we tend to see those people as our enemies, but if we are to influence the wealthy ones, which is the first step to our survival, we must see them like everyone, as potential friends for our survival

A Far Fethched Feminst Demand 
By Sushmita Verma

Women do not live in their vaginas and hence feeding into the mass rhetoric of sexual violence being graver than other forms of violence that women endure, we, as feminists contradict our own arguments. While demanding law reforms we need to prioritise civil remedies like shelter homes, healthcare, counseling which provide an alternative strutcture to the women. Strong campaigns to salvage the DV Act from impending dilution would be a parallel step. Only then can we demand other amendements within the act itself. Moreover, the bigger question that we need to answer would be, whether the normalization of domestic violence is okay with us while we raise a certain kind of violence to the pedestal ?
