    Beginning today I will be writing a weekly column for HT Premium which will look at a political economy puzzle facing contemporary India. We've named it Terms of Trade. The first one asks why fuel price protests aren't gaining popular traction
    This kind of inequality, where the poor are witnessing a squeeze on incomes and the rich are not, should have added to the angst over inflation. But what explains the lack of it? 
    Terms of Trade | Why are the fuel hike protests confined to Parliament?

    Post SIR draft roll has cut Delhi’s elector count by almost a third. Highest when you compare to states but not so high when you compare with large cities. @naalmot has been doing the SIR math

    Piracicaba...gave Brazil’s right-wing former president, Jair Bolsonaro, 79% of the vote in 2018...right-wing city councilman Fabrício Polezi remembers a sinking feeling when he read news of Trump’s latest tariffs. He fired off a msg : “Man, we’re screwed.”

    Today is GDP data day. Headline growth will be 7% plus, perhaps closer to 8%, analysts believe. Quarterly GDP numbers lead to annual, annual leads to long-term growth. That is what we hope, will give us Viksit Bharat. We ran a 3-part series rethinking Viksit Bharat (1/7)

    "I couldn’t make myself believe it. Sole and Tupche sit nearly a hundred metres above the riverbed...I remember that even during the years of nationwide load-shedding, back in 2010-11, our village never once lost power. Now the whole district sits in the dark."

    In the devastating floods that severed an entire district from the rest of Nepal, a Kathmandu Post journalist witnessed his childhood village disappear — through fragments of video, and phone calls that stopped connecting. A deeply moving piece, by @arjunpoudeltkp.
