In one of Delhi-NCR's top schools, parents are planning to pool-in funds to buy Dyson/Honeywell/Sharp Purifiers for their children's Nursery classrooms, for the upcoming bad-AQI season.
Some parents logically asked, "Why doesn't the school buy these air purifiers?" The school said that their AC systems have HEPA filters, to take care of dust to some extent. Unconvincing. Parents decided to go ahead with their own safety systems.
Next, they asked- "What happened to the Air Purifiers that the classroom had last year? The previous batch too had purifiers with AQI monitors."
School's response: "The air purifiers travel with the batch of children. As the students move up a year, the Air Purifiers do too. So the Purifiers that were in first grade last year, are in second grade now."
Welcome to the incredibly complex world of public-health moving into private hands.

I held my cat’s face in my hands today and realized she has no idea what money is, what taxes are, or what the news says. She just knows peace and love.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who would have thought? After almost four years, he makes a comeback. At the venue, where he made his T20I debut against Pakistan.
Plays for RCB at the Chinnaswamy. One can only dream!

The madness of T20 is making cricket richer, yet poorer in so many ways. And every six hit in the India vs WI series makes me wonder where the game we grew to love is headed...

Civilian protests across India have been increasingly met with police intervention — and allegations of excessive force have taken center stage.

Good opening grafs in the NYT report on the scenes witnessed on Delhi's streets.
Crackdown Exposes Limits of Modi’s Playbook for Maintaining Power: Modi has long succeeded in isolating and undermining opponents. The Gen Z protests pose a challenge unlike any he has faced before.
