The Lok Sabha results in Baramulla and Ladakh reflect a churning among voters
A unique campaign unfolded in the run-up to the Lok Sabha elections in Baramulla, where independent candidate Abdul Rashid Sheikh aka Engineer Rashid eventually trounced National Conference’s Omar Abdullah and Peoples Conference president Sajad Lone. Rashid, leader of the Awami Ittehad Party, ran his election bid from Tihar Jail. In his absence, his sons Abrar and Asrar campaigned for him.
The brothers, both in their 20s, led crowds with impassioned slogans. Each rally began with Abrar’s call: “Tihar ka badla (the revenge for Tihar is),” to which the crowd responded, “Vote se (by vote).” Abrar would continue the slogan with “Zulm (injustice) ka badla” and “Jail ka badla”, each of which would be met with the roaring response of “vote se”.

Rejoinder to the column by Mahua Moitra
This is with reference to Ms Mahua Moitra's column, 'Hard questions for Hardeep' (March 1, 2026). The column dresses up insinuation as accountability, builds its narrative on inflated arithmetic, and invites the reader to mistake volume and vocabulary for evidence. The record does not support her leaps. But before we examine the substance of what she claims, the reader is entitled to consider who is making the claim—because the messenger, in this case, is the message.

Even so, one of the most important transitions in a woman's health journey is only now receiving the attention it deserves. Menopause is increasingly being understood not as an ending to be endured, but as a turning point shaping long-term health and vitality.
