The Latest Breaking News from Hafta

Hafta letters: Against labels, language chauvinism, communist propaganda

In Hafta 405, I loved Abhinandan’s exasperation at how Bongs at a workplace start chatting in Bengali. I guess this is the common experience of non-Hindi speakers at all workplaces where Hindi speakers expect everyone else to join in Hindi. Then, even if you try, they will crack a joke…

Hafta letters: Malayalam movies, hijab verdict, digital media subscriptions

I am a South Indian who can speak Hindi well and read it with some difficulty – this to say that I am not opposed to learning the language.

Hafta letters: Language and Hindi imposition, moonlighting, freebie culture

Hi NL team. You all do a great job. However, the model currently in place is very limiting. I don't see anything wrong in taking advertisements as long as you control who is in. I do consume a lot of good content on public media that is ad driven, but…

Hafta letters: Bharat Jodo Yatra, incorrect lyrics, letters for Mehraj

I wanted to highlight the news outlet rest of world (restofworld.org) for their excellent articles. They report interesting tech stories from around the world primarily focusing on low income nations.

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Indian cricket, pronunciation woes, new shows

Requesting NL to please start a CEO fund so that subscribers can top up Abhinandan to be nominated for India Today CEO of the year. Worth it just for the trolling.

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Reporting on climate change, caste in Islam, pronunciations

Two questions that I've been thinking about for the panel.

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Mukesh Ambani, series on Congress scams, Hafta thumbnails

I had sent this to AnA also but would appreciate it if you can read it on Hafta also.

Hi Abhinandan,

Hafta letters: App glitches, demographic change in Kashmir, lazy analysis of judiciary

Hi NL team,

Newslaundry

Hafta letters: Yeh Bhi Theek Hai, RSS podcast, privilege of bail

I listened to the first two episodes of Yeh Bhi Theek Hai podcast and, frankly, I found them quite underwhelming. Particularly, the flow of discussion did not feel coherent. In the second episode, the topic of respecting elders was just odd and not interesting at all. This might just be…

Hafta letters: Abortion terminology, discussion quality, saying goodbyes

I didn’t see any letters read out for Let’s Talk About, so I’ve sent it to Hafta. I would like to offer some of my thoughts on the LTA religion discussion. The question as to why religion exists has been answered in The Sapiens by Dr YNH. It’s the same…
