A muscular policy that bulldozed a state and its people

Shadow Of The Gun

August 5 marks the first anniversary of three distinct, radical and game-changing decisions impacting the disputed state of J&K. These were the derogation— because technically it is still on the books—of Article 370; the abrogation of Article 35A; and the dismantling of the state of J&K. All three steps were taken without any reference to the people of the state or any discussion in Parliament. Yet, they were done with consultation enough to ensure legal validity while circumventing the truth, a manipulative technique at which New Delhi is very proficient.

“Fix the Pipeline, Not the Pay Cheque”

When Doorva Bahuguna played cricket in the late 1980s and ’90s, there was no money, little recognition, and no illusion that the sport could become a career. You played, she says, because something inside you demanded it. Today, women’s cricket in India has a league, salaries, sponsors, and visibility—but also new constraints, new narratives, and familiar battles over agency, safety and femininity. In conversation with Lalita Iyer, Bahuguna—who captained Andhra Pradesh’s sub-junior, junior and senior cricket teams and later built a corporate career—speaks candidly about why grassroots matter more than pay parity, how sport reshapes women's sense of self; and why the real revolution in women’s cricket is still unfinished.
