'Can OCI-Holders Only Be Cheerleaders of Modi Govt?' Asks UK Prof Nitasha Kaul
The Quint examines censorship debates, missing faculty across universities, and concerns around income tax receipts.
Is India’s golden goose of income tax drying up? New government data show the income tax receipts growth dropped sharply in 2024-25. Former finance secretary Subhash Chandra Garg examines the numbers in his fortnightly column for The Quint. On the 50th anniversary of the Emergency, veterans reflect on eerie parallels with the present. In an exclusive interview with The Quint's Sakshat Chandok, UK-based professor Nitasha Kaul accuses the ruling government of "silencing dissent" a month after her OCI status was cancelled "without any evidence" provided to her. And the latest article in our 'State of Education' series reveals deep cracks in faculty recruitment and quota implementation across India's top universities.

In our State of Education series, The Quint is uncovering how institutional apathy is quietly undermining the future of millions of children. Crores in education funds lie unused —even as classrooms remain without teachers, and students without hope.
