Games the Olympic Committ...

The International Olympic Committee is more intent on protecting its bottomline and itself from the multiple litigations it could face if the Games were postponed further or cancelled. It has little interest in “safeguarding the health of the athletes” or of anybody else, for that matter.

West Bengal set for a cou...

The elections have become a volatile mix of horse trading and power games and, to paraphrase the TMC slogan, the game is on. The final score will have a major impact on national politics.
