When a man is stoned to death in the middle of a marketplace in front of a police station and in broad daylight because he was wearing a skullcap and had a beard, and the one who stoned him to death shouts, “aaj ek mulle ko mara hai abhi aur ko maarunga” (I have killed one Muslim today and I’m going to kill more) seemingly without any fear of its repercussions, it speaks volumes about our society. It exposes the extent to which the dehumanisation of an entire community has been internalised, to the point where its persecution is increasingly treated as a natural and accepted state of social order. On the morning of September 24, a man’s head was crushed by a stone in front of the Baroda Meo police station at around 9:30 AM. His name was Saikun Khan – a husband, a father, a brother and a son. When the team of Karwan-e-Mohabbat visited Saikun’s home on 30th September in Barawas village around 30 kilometers from the district headquarters of Alwar in Rajasthan, we had the opportunity to hear a first hand account from Noor Mohammad, a fellow villager who had accompanied Saikun on that fateful day to the market. Noor Mohammad, who went to the Baroda Meo market with Saikun on a bike, got down around 50 meters before to visit a bank and Saikun was supposed to buy a tire tube for his bike. After hearing a loud crash he came running to the spot and saw that a man was sitting on Saikun’s chest and was constantly hitting Saikun’s head with a stone. A large crowd had gathered near the spot, yet the police intervened only after he had been beaten to within an inch of his life, despite the assault taking place right in front of the police station. The police in its defence has said that the spot is not visible from the station but when we went to the spot, we saw that the main entrance of the police station stood directly opposite the very spot where Saikun was crushed to death.

Apple just pulled Bitchat, Jack Dorsey's offline messaging app, from its India App Store. The request came from India's IT Ministry under Section 69A of the IT Act, which lets the government block online content. Apple's notice says the app contains "content illegal in India" but doesn't say what that content is. What makes Bitchat different: it doesn't need the internet at all. No Wi-Fi, no mobile data, no phone number, no central server. Phones relay messages to each other over Bluetooth, which means it can keep working during an internet shutdown. That's exactly the concern. Back in July, Indian authorities went after Bitchat's code on GitHub, arguing its design makes it harder to intercept messages and trace who sent them. The app is still available in other countries. So where do you stand: is a messenger that can't be shut down a tool for free speech or a problem for security?

While Bihar battles devastating floods and rising concerns over women's safety, Maithili Thakur chose complete silence. Returning from her international tour, she walked away without answering critical questions. For an artist who represents Bihar globally, ignoring the harsh realities of her homeland speaks louder than any song. Bihar’s daughters are unsafe and its citizens are drowning, yet local icons remain deeply detached. Asked about these pressing crises upon her arrival from abroad, Maithili Thakur evaded the media and left without a word. True influence requires using your platform to speak up when your state suffers. It is disheartening to see prominent figures turn a blind eye to the ongoing struggles of their people. With fields submerged and citizens demanding safety, her decision to avoid questions post her foreign trip feels like a betrayal. Glamour abroad cannot shield anyone from the responsibilities at home. Maithili Thakur’s silence highlights a stark gap between celebrity status and ground reality. As Bihar grapples with floods and safety crises, the singer simply walked past journalists after landing from her foreign tour. When the people who support your art need a voice, staying quiet is a choice.

The Instagram account of political cartoonist Satish Acharya has been restricted in India after the Meta-owned platform received a legal request from the government. A message displayed by the platform when users try to access the account says: “We reviewed it against our policies and conducted a legal and human rights assessment. After the review, we restricted access to the content in the location where it goes against local law.” Another political cartoonist, Manjul, also said that Instagram had restricted one of his works about the Election Commission to users in India “pursuant to a notice from the Government of India/Law Enforcement”. Responding to the development on Monday, Acharya said on X that he had never seen a government that is “so scared of cartoons”.

Estonia is a small Baltic country, but it is strategically very important to NATO because of its location. It borders Russia directly and sits on NATO’s northeastern flank, close to St. Petersburg and the Gulf of Finland. Estonia is also part of the Baltic states alongside Latvia and Lithuania, making its security closely connected to the defense of the entire Baltic region. For NATO, Estonia serves as an important forward position for deterring Russia. NATO maintains a multinational force there, and Estonia has invested heavily in defense, including maintaining a relatively high level of defense spending. Estonia is also known for its advanced digital infrastructure and cybersecurity expertise, which gives it importance beyond its size. The biggest vulnerability is geography: Estonia is relatively small and, together with Latvia and Lithuania, could be difficult to reinforce quickly in a major conflict with Russia. This is why NATO considers the Baltic region a critical test of its Article 5 collective-defense commitment. In simple terms, Estonia may be small, but an attack on Estonia would potentially trigger a confrontation between Russia and the entire NATO alliance, making the country disproportionately important to European security.
