Personal is political. And politicians seem to be getting around to the Feminism 101 debate.

This year, I became one of the few journalists to ever walk the Darién Gap - a jungle spanning Colombia and Panama home to a huge migration crisis.

India’s powerloom hub of Bhiwandi is supplied power by Gujarat-based Torrent Power. For years, locals have alleged that their power bills have shot up since Torrent was given a distribution franchise, dealing a blow to their industry. Tanvi Deshpande writes: indiaspend.com/governance/why…

It's increasingly clear to me that people don't disagree about human rights.

They disagree on who is enough human for those rights.

Is misogyny, sexual misbehaviour, abuse, crimes normal in Indian politics?

How many politicians & sitting MPs in the parliament have charges for sexual crimes against women?

How’re these men into voted into power? 👇

While politicians use it as election fodder to blame, Sadhika Tiwari takes a look at some hard facts about the politicians in our members of parliament.

First, the Congress candidate in Surat was disqualified.
Now, the Indore Congress candidate has left the party and joined the BJP.
Days before he did, an attempt to murder charge was added to 17-year-old case in which he was involved, reports Tabassum
