Double-edged

In the midst of a global pandemic and economic uncertainty, India has witnessed an unprecedented surge in retail investors flocking to the stock market.

Living on the margins

The months of lockdown and the pandemic continue to form a part of a blurry scary past. Haunting images of those harrowing times are imprinted in our collective consciousness: images of food lying on the tracks on which a family died, of police and authority spraying pesticides over a group of people during a mass exodus, workers desperately trying to get home in inhumanely crowded buses, trains, bicycles, and even on foot.

The Antagonistic Indian

Hate speech, though highly distasteful, is the manifestation of a deep-rooted problem. Currently, a permanent state of anger seems to be the norm for many of us. We often see people who are constantly putting others down, criticizing everything, and making cynical comments, face-to-face or on social media harming their social relations in the bargain. Mostly, such cynical and hostile behaviour arises out of one's inability to deal with the problems of modern life. This dormant anger spikes stress levels, harming the angry person much more than the object of anger
