Opinion

Indian Express reporter, Deepu Sebastian Edmond, muses on what led him to cover a story on the gay Aligarh Muslim University professor, Shrinivas Siras, who committed suicide. "I like to think that Siras and I bonded over our naivety. Each of us assumed that it was about ourselves: A reporter after a story, a middle-aged man outraged that someone would barge into his home with a video camera. He was coy about his relationships and I never knew how to broach the subject with someone almost three times my age. When I did, we found his poetry to be a suitably vague medium for communication.

Alistair Mcmillan puts Modi's visit in a ledger and attempts to make sense of the losses and gains.

Emil Chabal prognosticates the future of France in the aftermath of the attacks.
