The dismantling of democracy in the modern years has fuelled the rise of one of the most gripping movies based on the decline of India’s broadcast media. Yes, you have guessed it right! We are here today to talk about the gem directed by Vinay Shukla, '' While We Watched' '. The film is on the NDTV veteran news reporter Ravish Kumar. Ravish has already received huge praise and applause. With more than 04 awards and 02 nominations, the movie is an all-time hit!

"Every blow on our bodies this afternoon is like a nail driven into the coffin of British imperialism." These were the precise words of Sher-e-Punjab Lala Lajpat Rai when he got brutally " lathi-charged " by the law enforcers of Colonial India while he was protesting against the Simon Commission in October 1928.  Punjab Kesari Lajpat Rai eventually succumbed to his injuries, and his death gave off the spark for vengeance in the heart of numerous Indian revolutionaries. In December 1928, Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh and his compatriot Shivam Rajguru assassinated the Lahore Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Saunders to avenge the murder of their mentor. "Lathi-Charge" has remained one of the most brutal and sensitive issues for Indians since the bygone days of the Indian National Movement. Thus, even after 75 years of liberation, India and her children continue to writhe under pain brought on by police brutality and paranoia. Both the Indian Penal...

Japan has long been regarded as a global leader in technology and innovation, with enterprises such as Sony, Nintendo, and Toyota enjoying international success. Even so, the country has struggled to substantially influence the global arena when it comes to startups.  This is partly due to the challenges that Japanese startups encounter when growing overseas, ranging from cultural differences to market obstacles. Despite a robust domestic market, these obstacles have made it difficult for Japanese companies to compete with their worldwide counterparts.  Investigating the challenges and prospects of globalising Japanese startups and how they might overcome these obstacles to flourish in the global market. Let us begin by outlining the cultural, structural, and market-related constraints impeding Japanese startups' global growth. Cultural Factors are one of the reason One of the primary challenges Japanese startups face in expanding globally is the cultural differences between J...

" India is an over populous country. " This statement is hardly news to anyone, but very few of us know that the average age of an Indian is just 29 years old. Hence, India is a fairly young country with a strong demographic dividend. However, the ambitions and dreams of millions of Indians lie stranded despite their ability and competence. Each new year brings fresh new hopes for millions of aspirants. These young people have expressed their strong will by deciding to dedicate the prime of their youth to preparing for numerous government examinations. In a country where social class divisions continue to be a notable phenomenon in determining one's future, Government jobs and recruitments offer the only genuine means for attaining an egalitarian society. Today, even this little scope for upliftment gets marred under the evils of Paper leaks and Recruitment scams. The problem of the youth, in essence, is the problem of the nation, and it is high time we illustrated the gr...

On July 11th, the Honourable Supreme Court went against the Modi Government's decision by annulling Enforcement Directorate Chief Sanjay Mishra's extension. The Supreme Court bench rendered Sanjay Mishra's tenure extension illegal because it went against their previous verdict. Sanjay Kumar Mishra's successive extensions got brought to the Court's attention through petitions moved by opposition leaders like Randeep Singh Surjewala, Jaya Thakur, Mahua Moitra, and others. The Supreme Court Bench headed by Justice B. R. Gavai held that Mishra could hold on to his office up to July 31st at most, during which the Modi Government must ensure a “smooth transition in the larger public interest."  The previous judgments by the Supreme Court on the matter Back in 2021, the Modi Government had, via the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) Act and the Delhi Special Police Establishment (DSPE) Act, made amendments to the necessary laws to safeguard the extension of the tenure...

Usually, when an institution tries to evade criticism and accountability, they try to gag the voice of the dissenters by using numerous loopholes in the legal system. In India, however, where we get distinguished as the world's largest democracy, certain laws themselves are loopholes to reduce the credibility of the entire framework. One such law is the criminalization of "defamation’’ (मानहानि in Hindi). In the legal context, "defamation" is a term that gets used to penalise a group of people or an individual for deliberately slandering another person's (usually, a famous and respectable individual) or a community's reputation with the aim of personal benefit or to cause economic and social disadvantage to the concerned authority or individual.  While the Constitution of India enshrines the Right to Speech and Expression under Article 19, the Indian Penal Code (IPC) has two sections: 499 and 500, that limit the justifiable extent of the aforementioned funda...

Prime Minister Modi made an unexpectant announcement. PM Modi, who appeared to be the poster boy for India's Amritkaal (a period to denote India's growth post-75 years of Independence), has coined a different term to replace the former. India need not crave any "Amrit" (Elixir) from the Government but keep battling the hardships of inflation and unemployment as their "Kartavya" (Duty). That's right, Indians have entered Kartavyakaal until 2047. In the 25 years to come, let us not whimper under the unnecessary pain and hardships for securing the basic amenities of life but convince ourselves that the Government is doing all it can (without any substantial proof for the same) to gift us "Achche Din."  Why expect the Government to deliver perfect governance? The onus is on us, the people of India, to pay taxes and still do more "Kartavya" to pay for the Netas' subsidised canteens and luxurious Bungalows. We must not demand answers ...
