“Meta cannot treat regulation and the law as an afterthought. A platform that decides who sees what is no longer a passive pipe or a neutral noticeboard, and an apology is a bandage, not a cure. What regulators want is provable compliance built into the system: faster grievance redressal, transparent moderation, clear labelling of AI content and human accountability. Meta cannot claim credit for connecting a billion people and then shrug when that reach is used to circulate deepfakes, scams or abusive material. The era of moving fast, breaking things and saying sorry later is closing.”

"Education is the foundation upon which a democratic republic builds its future. B R Ambedkar's call to 'Educate, Agitate, Organise' remains a roadmap for an informed and egalitarian society. Over the past 12 years, the Modi government's education policy has been driven by the communalisation, commercialisation and centralisation of education, resulting in a weakening of public education and a crisis in examinations, recruitment and employment. The Ministry of Education has failed to restore confidence, while the National Testing Agency has become associated with repeated controversies, technical failures and paper leak allegations. Behind every cancelled examination lies an enormous human cost, with years of preparation and family sacrifices disappearing overnight. Dharmendra Pradhan bears ministerial responsibility for the repeated breakdown of India's examination system. The struggle is larger than one minister or one government; it is about defending education as a public good, a constitutional right and a means of nation-building rather than ideological control."

- D. Raja, The Indian Express, (21/7)
