Hi, this is Shreya Das. If you read one story from Scroll today, make it our extensive ground report on how, despite India recognising sickle cell anemia and thalassemia as disabilities, many of the country’s most vulnerable are often left without crucial support. We also have: a piece discussing what the Bar Council’s bid to curb NALSAR students says about the autonomy of the university, how the jailing of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has made him more relevant than ever, and a tribute to pedagogue Nisha da Cunha.
The Daily Brief is free to read, but it takes money, labour and time to produce the journalism you see here. If you value our work, do consider becoming a Scroll member.
