SM is filling up with verified handles (inc journalists) who are saying EC affidavit in SC closes the case against it.
This is not merely uninformed opinion.
It is an organised signal to SC which is hearing the matter today.
No prizes for guessing who the ‘organiser’ is.

At Startup Policy Forum's Lights & Leaders, our annual pre-Diwali get-together, the OGs of a golden era of television were back in one room!
Most of us have long since moved on from TV, and many from journalism altogether.
Life has taken us in very different directions. Some are now in big tech, some are shaping policy, and some have become founders.
But on one thing we all agreed: that was a different era altogether.
Kudos to the few still holding the fort! 🙌❤️

Did a lot of talking this weekend @kslitfest - this from a session on Kashmir
This book suggests that Bofors was inferior tothe competing French gun and that Sundarji may have gone ahead with recommending it in return for being made army chief. Never heard this before, have you?
Delighted to announce that my book ‘#GeneralBrasstacks : The #SundarjiStory’ (@PenguinIndia ) is published and now available for purchase on online platforms (Amazon.in) and bookstores.
Years of research, travel, meeting sources, archives, writing, editing…finally makes it to print - a definitive #biography of arguably the most influential #Military #leader in India’s recent history. A legacy both celebrated and debated.
Who was General #Sundarji? What was his link with #MahatmaGandhi?
How did he influence Prime Ministers #RajivGandhi & #IndiraGandhi? What was his role in the controversial #Bofors deal ?
Thanks to my publishers for work on the book - @PenguinIndia and @mileeashwarya @sorcerical

From Chetwode’s 'country first' motto that hung on the wood-panelled wall for decades to Dinkar’s stirring verses & now the Field Marshal’s ceremonial baton, every detail in the Army chief's office has quietly reinforced its military character & gravitas.

Despite 5 months passing since huge irregularities in the CBSE’s on-screen marking (OSM) system rocked the nation, the culprit vendor COEMPT has not been sanctioned or faced penalties.
On Jun 1, 2026 CBSE said it would penalise COEMPT - but no action has been taken till now. Perhaps because the same people in the Ministry of Education and CBSE that awarded this contract through a dodgy process have been tasked with penalising the vendor.
Today, a leading daily that has been at the forefront in exposing scams in the CBSE, reports that there has been no sanction order or penalties against COEMPT. Previous reports showed that the OSM tender was altered to remove the clause to blacklist vendors that were unable to deliver - just months before COEMPT got the contract. The total value of the contract was over Rs 38 crore.
This shows that nothing has changed in the Ministry of Education despite the massive student andolan. The new Minister is continuing to protect the vendors he has inherited.

HAL may have handed over the first three HTT-40s to the IAF, but training of rookie pilots on these indigenous basic trainers will begin at the Air Force Academy in Dundigal only after two years as the service builds up its pool of trained instructors and inducts 25-30 aircraft.
The big question today 👇🏾👇🏾
