Rejoinder to the column by Mahua Moitra
This is with reference to Ms Mahua Moitra's column, 'Hard questions for Hardeep' (March 1, 2026). The column dresses up insinuation as accountability, builds its narrative on inflated arithmetic, and invites the reader to mistake volume and vocabulary for evidence. The record does not support her leaps. But before we examine the substance of what she claims, the reader is entitled to consider who is making the claim—because the messenger, in this case, is the message.

Menopause is increasingly being understood not as an ending to be endured, but as a turning point shaping long-term health and vitality.

Mapping the ego
For decades, we have treated maps as the homework of grumpy geography teachers— all coloured pencils and scale ratios. But as the recent headlines suggest, a map isn’t just a guide to where you are; it is an advertisement of where you want to be. We are witnessing the evolution of maps from the schoolroom to the war room, transitioning from the classroom through the era of “cartographic aggression” to the polite, yet pointed, “cartographic diplomacy”.
