SC asks Ramdev, Balkrishna to issue public
apology in Patanjali ads case 'You are doing good
work but you can't degrade allopathy,' the bench
told Balkrishna while interacting with him
New Delhi The Supreme Court Tuesday granted
one- week time to yoga guru Ramdev, his aide
Balkrishna and Patanjali Ayurved to issue a
public apology in the mis- leading
advertisements case, but said it was not letting
them "off the hook" now. Both Ramdev and Balkr-
ishna were present during the hearing and
personally ten- dered an unqualified apology to
the apex court. A bench of Justices Hima Kohli
and Ahsanuddin Aman- ullah took note of their
apolo- gies, but made it clear that at this
stage it has not decided to "let them off the
hook". "You are doing good work but you can't
degrade allopa- thy," the bench told Balkrishna
while interacting with him. Ramdev, who also
inter- acted with the bench, said he had no
intention to show dis- respect to the court in
any manner. However, the bench told Balkrishna
that they (Patan- jali) are not so innocent that
they didn't know what the top court had said in
its earlier or- ders in the case. "I am willing

however, clarified that

com- plained of being poisoned in jail before

systematic destruction of
Delhi University is a case study in elite
secession
Source theconversation.com
Delhi University has gone unremarked. It isnt
formally dead it still educates tens of thou-
sands of students but it is not, as it once was,
choose to do the less desirable BA (Pass) de-
gree, where they studied a mix of subjects.
Also, it created an artificial and insuperable
barrier between the Arts and the Sciences. But
its strengths outweighed these weak- nesses. It
worked within the limitations of Delhi
Universitys affiliated colleges. Individ- ual
colleges didnt have the faculty or re- sources
to teach a directory of courses in the way that
vastly better funded American col- leges and
universities could. By offering a tightly
defined Honours programme, the uni- versity
created a degree that could be taught and
examined in a reasonably standardised way across
its affiliated colleges. So if a stu- dent
earned a first class degree in Economics or
History or Sociology from Delhi University,
thatdistinction mattered more than the prestige
of the college she had attended. Delhi Univer-
sitys Honours degree democratised under-
graduate education without undermining academic
distinction. Kapil Sibal, who graduated from
Delhi Uni- versity and should have known better,
chose to ram through a half-baked four-year pro-
gramme that managed to dissolve the discipli-
nary focus of the Honours degree without adding
anything that justified the additional year. The
only justification for a four-year undergraduate
degree was that in some obscure way it
dovetailed with American universities. Given
that 99.99 of desi undergraduates would never
see the inside of an American college, this was
a fine example of policy-making for the top
.01. The UPA had set a precedent that would
allow the National Democratic Alliance to do its
worst. Narendra Modis government first scrapped
Sibals innovation, then reintroduced it. Now
Delhi University has an American four-year
programme with Indian characteris- tics.
Students can exit the programme at the end of
every year with a paper qualification
certificate, diploma, pass degree, honours de-
gree linked to the exit year. The trouble is
that course design isnt modular so the student
exits with the arm or leg or torso of a degree
that wasnt designed to be dismembered. Admission
to these degrees in Central uni- versities has
been centralised. Aspirants take the Common
University Entrance Test and their rank in it
determines the course and uni- versity that they
will be assigned. The IIT/JEE test has become
the grand-daddy of all forms of university
entrance even though the nature and needs of
residential engineering schools are radically
different from those of traditional universities
that teach a generality of courses. Cretinous
tests based solely on multiple- choice questions
now determine the merit of both students and
teachers. The sangh parivar is uninvested in
univer- sities that arent technological or
professional schools. Its only interest in
universities like Delhi University is
ideological faculty recruit- ment consists of
packing departments with committed bhakts or
pliable opportunists. The Communist Party of
India (Marxist) destroyed public universities in
Bengal by swamping them with its clients and
cadres the Bharatiya Janata Party is doing the
same on a pan-Indian scale. The difference is
that the comrades, thanks to Marxs enormous
influence on mod- ern thought, paid lip service
to a bastard intel- lectualism. Hindutva has no
intellectual substance beyond an existential
hatred of the Other. Reading Deen Dayal Upadhyay

remade by his disciples will be malignant voids.
a place where students and teachers desper-
ately want to be. Some institutions within it,
like the Delhi School of Economics, are in bet-
ter health than others and some of its affiliated
colleges are more desirable than others, but
hard-working students and ambitious academ- ics
increasingly look elsewhere. This is part of a
broader tendency the se- cession of Indias
comfortable professional classes from public
institutions of every sort, from hospitals to
school boards. Upper-mid- dle-class parents in
India have always sent their children to private
schools but these schools were generally signed
up to public bodies like the Central Board of
Secondary Education and, its lineal ancestor,
the All India Higher Secondary Board, for their
school- leaving examinations. The new, upscale,
very expensive private schools that have mush-
roomed in Indias metropolitan cities prefer to
work towards school-leaving qualifications
designed by Western regulatory bodies like the
A-Level and International Baccalaureate
diplomas. The devaluation of the public
university is directly related to this tendency.
The students who earn these diplomas no longer
aspire to an Honours degree in Economics from
Delhi University, once the Everest of a
school-leav- ing students ambition. These
schools, which often style themselves as
international schools, prepare their students
for American universities. Those students who
cant afford to pay their way through an
undergraduate de- gree in the United States of
America find a halfway house in the better class
of private universities like Ashoka, Krea or
Ahmedabad University, which teach courses
modeled on American liberal arts colleges. We
are speaking of a super-elite sliver of Indias
population, but small though this class is, its
choices exert a disproportionate influ- ence on
how the Indian middle class views the world.
Time was when powerful politicians and civil
servants pulled strings to get their children
into elite colleges affiliated to public
universities like Loyola, St. Xaviers, Hindu,
St. Stephens, Lady Shri Ram, Miranda House,
Fergusson, Presidency and so on. Their mod- ern
counterparts now try to shoehorn their children
into East Coast colleges lapped by the Atlantic
Ocean, not the Bay of Bengal. One of the lessons
we learnt from the col- lapse of the public
distribution system was that the moment the
middle class feels it has no ac- cess to a
public good, it does everything it can to
subvert or devalue it. We can see this hap-
pening in real time to Indias public universi-
ties. The systematic destruction of Delhi
University is a case study in elite
secession. The pioneering work of destruction in
this case was begun by the ministers of the last
United Progressive Alliance government. The
special achievement of Kapil Sibal, the then
human resource development minister, was to
wreck Delhi Universitys most substantial
achievement, the Honours degree. The Hon- ours
degree used to be a three-year programme that
encouraged disciplinary specialisation. So if
you did an Honours degree in History, you might
do minor or subsidiary courses in an In- dian
language or another subject like philoso- phy
but all your main courses taught you different
aspects of history. There were drawbacks to this
system it made young students commit themselves
to subjects before they knew their minds, with
no real access to other disciplines that might
also interest them. For that, ironically, they
had to
Indias government, led by
A secularist ethos squelched The CAA was passed
in 1955, a few years after Indias freedom from
colonial rule in 1947. It was intended to
formalize citizen- ship for everyone living in
India since 1949, as well as those born in India
since or before that date. But in 2019, the
right-wing govern- ment changed this law to
allow mi- grants of religious groups from
neighboring Muslim majority coun- tries to apply
for citizenship. There was one exception Muslim
migrants. In one fell swoop, this new law erased
Indias constitutional guarantee to grant
citizenship to people of all re- ligions. Most
of Indias poor do not have formal citizenship
papers, even if their families have lived in the
country for generations. If they hap- pen to be
Muslim, they can no longer apply. This law in
tandem with plans to create a National Register
of Citizens, which would require all Indians to
show proof of citizenship would ef- fectively
render millions of Indias Muslims, lower castes
and the poor ineligible for government benefits.
They would be unable to vote and would face a
constant threat of dis- placement from the
country of their birth. Delhi-based lawyer
Gautam Bhatia has argued that dividing alleged
mi- grants into Muslims and non-Muslims
explicitly and blatantly seeks to en- shrine
religious discrimination into law, contrary to
our long-standing, secular constitutional
ethos. In 2019, the passing of these laws by
the Lok Sabha, the lower house of Indias
Parliament, was met with na- tionwide protests.
The most promi- nent was the Muslim women-led
101-day sit-in at Shaheen Bagh. Due to protests
and widespread outcry, the implementation of the
law was put on hold. We will toss your
crowns Perhaps the most recited poem at Shaheen
Bagh and other sites during the 2019 protests
was Faiz Ahmed Faizs Urdu poem Hum Dekhenge
or We Will See. Faiz, who was born in
pre-parti- tioned India in a region of the
country that is now part of Pakistan, had writ-
ten the poem in 1979 to protest the regime of
Muhammad Zia ul Haq,
Pakistans sixth president. Upon as- suming
power, Zia put the country under martial law and
ruled as a mili- tary dictator while furthering
the Is- lamization of Pakistans political and
cultural life. It might seem strange that a poem
written to protest a Pakistani ruler sev- eral
decades earlier was being used to protest Indian
laws. But in South Asia, theres a long
tradition of reciting po- etry as a form of
protest, and poems from the past often evolve to
become freshly relevant. While many of these
poems appear in print, the tradition is
primarily an oral one they are recited as
poems and sung as songs at marches, protests
and on university campuses. As a re- sult, they
can reside in the popular imagination decades
after their publi- cation. In 2019, Faizs 1979
poem became a stirring riposte to the Modi
govern- ments attempts to marginalize Indias
Muslims. Just as Pakistani protesters chanted
the line Sab taj uchale jayenge, sab takht
giraye jayenge We will toss your crowns, we
will topple your thrones to decry Zias
authoritarian regime, Indian protesters recited
those same lines to denounce Modis rule. I was
there and so were you Haidry was at Shaheen
Bagh during the 2019 protests. Inspired by the
womens activism, he wrote Tum Dekhogey as a
riff on Hum Dekhenge. While Faizs poem speaks
of the power of the people to overthrow
tyranny, Haidrys poem is written from the
perspective of the women of Shaheen Bagh. It
lam- bastes the silent bystanders who do nothing
as hardcore Hindu na- tionalists who believe
in Hindu supremacy terrorize religious
minorities. The poem begins by setting the stage.
will one day meet the same fate as these
women. The next two lines speak to the var- ious
injustices endured by peaceful protesters the
attacks and batter- ing at the hands of the
state. Next the text suggests that Hindu
nationalists trap regular citizens in saffron
cages. Saffron is a reference to the color used
by Modis Bharatiya Janata Party, or BJP. The
cage can be thought of as a metaphorical one
of an India without fundamental rights. But it
can also refer to the actual jail sentences
being meted out to protesters. The poem goes on
to suggest that once the CAA becomes law, these
silent bystanders will finally wake up and come
to see that India has become a living hell and
a slaughterhouse. When they lament their
inaction, the tyrant will mock them laugh and
say / I was there and so were you. Haidrys
lyrical indictment of the government has enraged
supporters of Modi and the BJP. Because Haidry
is also a Bolly- wood scriptwriter, there have
been calls to boycott Takht, a film he worked
on. And when singer and ac- tivist Kiran
Ahluwalia, who lives in New York, posted a
rendition of Tum Dekhogey on Instagram on
March 18, 2024, she had the renewal of her
Overseas Citizen of India card, a type of second
passport, denied a tactic often employed by
the Modi govern- ment to punish
dissenters. Despite these attempts to suppress
protest, the words of poets like Haidry continue
to resonate. Such is the beauty of poetry, which
can slip through the bars of saffron cages with
ease, speaking truth to power and oppression.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, im-
plemented the controversial Citizen-
ship Amendment Act, or CAA, in
March 2024. Opponents of the law which fast-
tracks citizenship for undocumented, non-Muslim
migrants from Pakistan, Bangladesh and
Afghanistan decry the ways in which it
discriminates against Muslims. As they did when
the law was passed in 2019, many Indians took to
the streets. The demonstrations were more muted
this time, though some protest- ers were
detained by the police. The government, perhaps
fearing a reprise, had increased police patrols
and de- ployed paramilitary troops in places
that had been hotbeds of protest. Four years ago,
university cam- puses and Muslim neighborhoods
such as Delhis Shaheen Bagh were packed with
people who, day after day, chanted slogans,
belted out songs and recited poetry. Poetry
seemed to unsettle the gov- ernment the most.
Dissenters reciting protest poems were accused
of spreading hate against India, beaten and
arrested by the police. Poet Hussain Haidry rose
to fame in the 2019-2020 protests. Haidry,
whos also a Bollywood lyricist and
scriptwriter, penned anti-CAA poems that became
a rallying cry against the government,
particularly Tum Dekhogey, or You will see
in Eng- lish. I first heard Tum Dekhogey in
2020 when Haidry recited it at a lec- ture at
Columbia University on the anti-CAA protests. As
a scholar and translator of Urdu poetry, I was
moved by the ways in which the poem described
the states violence against peaceful
protesters. I went on to translate the poem, and
Im currently writing about it for my forth-
coming book, Urdu Poetry and Poli- tics in
Contemporary India. For me, the poem
crystallizes the disturbing turn of events in a
country that once prized secularism, democ-
racy and free expression. Because poems like
Haidrys directly challenge state power, the
government and its supporters seek to portray
them as seditious and anti-Indian.
This night on the street, this ice in our
breath is a reference to the frigid winter
nights that the women of Shaheen Bagh en- dured
during their sit-in, when they had no access to
heat or electricity. Those who watched and did
nothing, Haidry warns,

in-charge, and the dedicated district president
Kodanda Reddy, alongside esteemed members of
the state commit- tee. Their united presence un-
derscored a shared commitment to addressing the
pressing issues facing farmers today. With the
parliamentary elections looming on the hori-
zon, the farmers' urgent plea for support and
recognition has reached a crescendo. The BJP's
deafening silence on anti-farmer policies has
cast a shadow over the agricultural
community, with farmers grappling with
substantial losses amounting to Rs. 15,818 per
acre, juxtaposed against the stark reality of
Rs. 664 per quintal difference in paddy
prices. The glaring absence of ef- fective
measures and support mechanisms has exacerbated
the farmers' plight, leaving them stranded in a
sea of un- certainty and unmet promises. The
BJP's inability to deliver on its commitments
has not only deepened the farmers' fi- nancial
woes but has also ex-
posed the gaping chasm be- tween rhetoric and
reality. Amidst this backdrop of ad- versity,
the stark disparity in relief measures becomes
all too apparent. While industrial- ists bask
in the glow of sub- stantial waivers, the
farmers' cries for equitable treatment fall on
deaf ears, painting a stark picture of neglect
and ap- athy. In response to these press- ing
challenges, the Farmers Congress
Parliamentarians have vowed to stand in soli-
darity with the farming com-
munity. Their pledge to mobi- lize grassroots
efforts, reach- ing out to every corner of the
land, serves as a beacon of hope and resilience
in the face of adversity. The echoes of urgency
and resolve emanating from the Gandhi Bhavan
meeting serve as a rallying cry for action and
accountability. As we stand at a critical
juncture, the plight of the farmers demands our

Food for Thought place. The question here is
how are they going

Breakfast
Recently, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed
concern over wastage of food in his radio
programme, Mann Ki Baat. Two weeks later, his
government has devised a plan to counter it. The
Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public
distribution is planning to regulate food
portions served at restaurants and is said to be
drafting a questionnaire for hotels and
restaurants to explain what dish sizes they
should serve to a customer. Some say that the
mandate for eateries would just be to clearly
mention the portion size on the menu so that
customers know how much to order. In any case,
this has added to the confusion among the
restaurant owners, who are already working hard
to get around the liquor ban. Calling it a cheap
publicity tactic, Riyaaz Amlani, President of
National Restaurant Association of India told
The Indian Express, Keeping a check on food
wastage is a very good idea but maybe they
should start with government-run godowns and
sabzi mandis where several metric tonnes of food
is wasted. As far as the restaurants are
concerned, food never goes waste because
customers get the food packed if they cant
finish it or it is distributed among the
poor. Adds Amit Burman, promoter of Lite Bite
Foods, who has seven restaurant chains across
India including Punjab Grill, Zambar, Asia 7 and
the Subway outlets, I dont understand who is
advising the government to come up with such
ideas. They have bigger things to do. Burman
adds that it is absolutely impractical to put
such a regulation in
size. Portions are decided on the basis of
research and customer feedback. This is a
service industry and has to be run by our guests
and not the government. Some of our raw
materials come pre-portioned while others that
have a shelf-life are closely monitored, says
Rahul Singh, Owner, Beer Cafe, which has many
outlets across Delhi. Even the chefs are quite
unsure how such a regulation can be implemented.
Also, while everyone agrees in principle that
food wastage needs to be curbed, people in the
industry are of the view that restaurants are
the last place w h e r e wastage of food
actu ally
to do it? For instance, if we are serving grilled
chicken, how can the government decide the size
of chicken? he says. There are many factors, he
says, that go into a restaurant arriving at a
suitable portion size such as pricing, raw
material and the number of ingredients used in a
particular dish. We dont need to be t o l d
t hat f ood should not be wasted. This is
common sense. This is no way to figure out a
standard
If you love eggs, then this one's for you! Chhavi
Sachdev, communications consultant and radio
journalist, shares her version of healthy poached
eggs with HealthMeUp. She mentions two methods
of preparing poached eggs - in a microwave or
over the stove. Let's check them out. Over to
Chhavi's healthy poached egg recipes... Shortcut
"poached" eggs - microwave version You need A
microwave, a microwave safe small bowl/ramekin,
an egg. -Break the egg into the ramekin and
puncture the surface with a fork, swirl it around
without breaking the yolk. You need the membrane
to be porous or you will have an egg explosion
inside your oven, which will stink and is a
pain to clean up. -Nuke for 30 seconds on 50
power. If you can't figure this out, just nuke
on full power for 20 seconds. -Wait 3
seconds. Repeat nuking for 30/20 seconds. - W a
i t 3 m o r e seconds. Ignore any noises
inside the microwave. Repeat nuking. -If you
like your egg yolk hard, do it one more
time. -Use a wet knife to get the perfectly
rounded 'poached' egg out of the ramekin on to
your waiting English muffin. Shortcut "poached"
eggs - stovetop version You need A metal bowl,
a saucepan with 200 ml of water heating in it
(lid preferable), egg. -Set saucepan with water
on stove, on full heat till boils.
-Break egg into the metal bowl. I dab one drop of
oil in it to make the egg removal easier -Put
the metal bowl into the saucepan with the
water, reduce heat to simmer -Cover, let the
steam do it's job. -Peek in about 3 minutes in.
switch off when yolk is at the colour/hardness
you require. -Use a "pakkad" or tongs to get the
metal bowl out, and a wet knife to slide the egg
out on to your toast. And there you have it - a
simple, no-fuss, healthy method of poaching eggs
with what you have in the kitchen. Try it out
and tell us how it went!
happe ns. Chef Ravitej Nath, w h o h a
s worked with Oberoi group for 18 years, says
Food wastage is a huge problem but restaurants
are only a part of the problem. What we need is
to create awareness and devise a system where
food is collected and redistributed. I dont
think curbing portion sizes will help.
Top natural sweeteners What is clean eating? that
can replace sugar
and sucrose. You can notice an increase in
energy within an hour of eating dates. Date
sugar also helps to increase good bacteria.
Dates are known for preventing constipation. Cocon
ut sugar The boiled and dehydrated sap of the
coconut palm is called as coconut sugar. Coconut
sugar offers some trace of nutrients and also
has less impact on your blood sugar
level. Coconut sugar is not a
nutritional superfood, but it offers more
vitamins and minerals than refined sugar does.
It contains nutrients like vitamin C, potassium,
phosphorous, magnesium, calcium, iron, copper
and zinc. Coconut sugar has less fructose which
is good because fructose is a type of sugar that
your body converts into fat. Your liver can
break down fructose, and one of the results of
this breakdown is triglyceride, a form of fat
which is definitely not good for our
body. Blackstrap molasses Blackstrap molasses is
a thick, dark syrup produced when the sugar cane
plant is processed to make refined sugar. This
type of molasses contain all the vitamins and
minerals which were absorbed by the plant from
the soil, but which didn't quite make it to the
end product of nutritionally devoid white
sugar. Dark treacle contains
Carbohydrates, Sugar, Protein, Iron, Manganese,
Magnesium, Calcium, Potassium , Vitamin B6 and
Copper. In addition, it's free of fat and
cholesterol and contains negligible amounts of
sodium. Although blackstrap molasses contains a
somewhat high level of sugar but its vitamin
Not only empty calories, the adverse effects of
sugar are way beyond it. A lot of health experts
believe it to be the worst ingredient in your
diet. But if you can't survive without your dose
of sweetness, we bring you some natural
sweeteners that are way better than your white
sugar. Maple syrup As compared to refined sugar
that offers no nutrients at all, maple syrup
contains important antioxidants and minerals
like manganese and zinc. Though refined sugar
and maple syrup have few things in common but
there are definitely more favourable reasons to
choose maple syrup between the two. Although
both are made up of two-third sucrose, maple
syrup provides less sugar and more nutrients to
your diet. One benefit of maple syrup is that it
impacts your blood sugar level less than what
refined sugar does. Another factor that makes
maple syrup better than refined sugar is how it
is made. Maple syrup is derived from the sap of
maple trees. Unlike refined sugar which
undergoes a long, complex process in order to be
condensed in crystalized sugar, maple syrup is
much more natural. Refined sugar contains
minimal antioxidant activity, but maple syrup has
a higher antioxidant capacity. Some antioxidants
found in maple syrup include benzoic acid,
cinnamic acid, gallic acid and various flavanols
like quercetin, epicatechin, rutin and
catechin. Honey
which may provide some health benefits. Unlike
honey, table sugar lacks minerals and vitamins
they draw upon the body's nutrients to be
metabolised into the system. Honey has more
calories than sugar, but it's also sweeter. You
may find you need less honey than sugar to get
the desired sweetness. Honey is carbohydrates,
composed primarily of glucose and fructose. It is
used as an ingredient in many prepackaged foods
and recipes. It can result in weight gain if
overused. No matter which type you prefer, any
kind of honey can spike blood sugar levels. Date
sugar One of the main reasons people avoid
eating dates is the belief that they will raise
their blood sugar levels, but a study shows that
while dates contain high amounts of natural
sugars, they are actually a low- glycemic index
food and do not significantly raise blood sugar
levels. If you are diabetic, speak to your
doctor before adding dates to your diet so that
you can monitor your blood sugar levels and
determine how dates affect you personally. Date
sugar is packed with vitamins and minerals like
calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, iron,
copper, zinc, selenium and manganese where as
white sugar does not. Date sugar is packed with
protein, fibre and carbs which make you feel
full for much longer. And this can help curb
hunger and prevent weight gain. Date sugar has
more potassium per serving than a banana. Date
sugar has fewer calories than white sugar. It is
full of energy due to presence of
In the language of nutrition, it's very easy to
get your wires crossed. Master cleanses, detox
diets, low-carb diets, high- protein diets and
the like usually lead to more questions than
answers. So how do you sift through them all?
This piece is the first in a series of articles
where I attempt to translate the prevalent
beliefs or attitudes towards particular foods or
diets. Today, I get up close and personal with
a hot new fad - clean eating. In a nutshell,
clean eating is less of a diet and more of a
movement. The idea is to eat 'farm to table' or
to make sure your ingredients are as fresh as
they can get. In other words, processed foods
are off the table. You opt for fresh vegetables,
fresh meat, fresh dairy, and consequently, a
fresh problem how do you access fresh food all
the time? For nutritionists, clean eating is the
ultimate 'happily ever after' where the freshest
foods meet t h e h e a l t h i e s t c o o k
i n g techniques. To start off, eliminate
processed meats, store-bought sugary treats,
refined and polished grains, ready-to-eat meals
and precooked foods. A more pragmatic way to
eat clean food is to try cleaner eating...

Honey is a sweet natural produced by bees from

than processed sugar. It prevents and cures
iron-deficiency. The most common cause of anemia
is iron deficiency and blackstrap molasses is a
fantastic source of iron. Many doctors recommend

those with anemia or related disorders. It has
antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. In
tests comparing the antioxidant content of

due to enzymes in honey bee saliva. The flavour
and texture of honey depend on the flowers honey

and sugar components fructose and glucose. It
also contains little amounts of amino acids,

antioxidants. Honey can help kill germs and
promote healing of minor cuts and burns. Many of
the antioxidants found in honey are classified
as flavonoids. Flavonoids have anti-inflammatory
properties,

Another way is to cook the food as fresh as
possible. So Third, keep in mind that the focus
is not on perfection cook food you've bought
today, especially, meats and but on relative
success. In the process of eliminating
