  • Letters to the Editor

    Apropos of ‘Teachers must rise to save education’; the real test of teaching is whether it transforms the careless into the careful, the incapable into the capable, and the unproductive into responsible citizens. NEP 2020 can succeed only when teachers...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘The case for jurists as judges’; whatever the mode of appointment, whether from the Bar or the Bench, a judge should be a person of impeccable integrity, sound legal acumen and above suspicion. The higher judiciary commands respect...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Apropos of ‘Tortuous journey of India-China talks’; New Delhi must recognise two key maxims that drive Beijing’s geopolitics: the Middle Kingdom wants to become the world’s dominant superpower and wants to establish the ‘one mountain cannot have two tigers’ proverb...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘Skilling alone won’t solve the problem’; perhaps the underlying reason is that we have not been able to develop a scientific temper as a society. What we need today is the skill of prudent resource management, entrepreneurial initiatives,...

    Refer to ‘Handle AI detection with caution’; the US-based Pangram Labs highlights the growing dilemma of distinguishing human from AI-generated writing. However, its 99.98% accuracy claim is undermined by its CEO’s admission that the detector had erred. Moreover, wrongly labelling...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Apropos of ‘Change gears to build capabilities’; there is a certain irony in the fact that even the logo of the ‘Make in India’ initiative was designed by Wieden+Kennedy, a US-founded multinational advertising agency. As reported by a leading daily...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘Mecca accord raises the stakes for India’; the viability of the alliance as a close military pact is questionable due to the complex relations that both Turkiye and Pakistan maintain with Iran. Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal lends the alliance...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘Delhi can’t afford to lose Dhaka connect (The Great Game)’; Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s invitation to the Bangladesh PM and assurance of a warm reception are steps in the right direction, particularly at a time when India’s ties...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘Cast(e)ing the Census’; as a fellow democracy, India can learn key practical lessons from the US to address deep-seated gaps in health, education and public safety. The US Census Bureau tracks race and ethnicity effectively using standardised categories,...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Apropos of ‘India’s institutions are failing the people’; the functioning of Parliament has been deteriorating with each passing year. Frequent disruptions, adjournments and political confrontations are preventing meaningful debates and delaying important legislation. Parliament is the foundation of our democracy...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘States, Parliament and the mining question’; in 2024, the Supreme Court had upheld the right of states to impose taxes on mining and minerals, and also allowed them to recover arrears. However, Parliament has now passed the Mines...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘An Alternative to the Collegium’; when a rift appears between justice and its public perception, the citizen’s trust becomes the first casualty. Historically, judges refrained from expressing dissent through press conferences. Judges maintained a detached purity, grounding their...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘Taliban-Pak strife gives India a foothold’; the Taliban, once nurtured by Pakistan, are now asserting their independence and drawing closer to India. Growing Afghan Taliban-Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) ties and Pakistan’s treatment of Afghan refugees have further pulled Kabul...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Apropos of ‘The freedom to say No’ (The Great Game); India has completed 79 years of Independence, but many women of our country still hesitate to exercise their freedom to say ‘No’. Unfortunately, social attitudes still put unnecessary restrictions on...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘Judicial reckoning’; the indictment of former Justice Yashwant Varma by the Lok Sabha inquiry committee on all the three charges against him is a poor reflection on the credibility and integrity of the judges of the higher judiciary....

  • Letters to the Editor

    With reference to ‘GenZ unrest signals shifting sands’; the CJP-led student protests symbolise a daring rejection of the present authoritarian and divisive governance of the NDA alliance and its punctured aura of invincibility. The government is in a tight spot...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘North-East forests under siege’; forests are not pieces of land that can be replaced whenever development demands it. They support biodiversity, protect water sources and sustain tribal communities. While reducing dependence on imported edible oil is important, it...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Apropos of ‘The room: Fourth layer of the India Stack’; India needs to put in place an ecosystem of vocational education designed to impart skills relevant to the job market, rather than filling universities with unwilling candidates coaxed into getting...

  • Letters to the Editor

    Refer to ‘In repairing the lock we forget the room’; the hypothesis put forward to bridge the gap between the Macaulay concept of education and Swami Vivekananda’s educational ideology deserves serious attention. Education should help identify a child’s inherent aptitude...
