THE PERSON THAT I ADMIRE THE  MOST  – MY AUNT There are a lot of people in this world that help in shaping our futures and the kind of people we will become when we grow older. We all have this one person that we can share everything with, for me it is my aunt- Purva. She is not a famous celebrity or a billionaire entrepranuer or a star sportsperson but for me she is the best person in the world. It is not because of the adoration we feel towards each other as relatives but because - whether it be encouraging me to stand out in the crowd or recommending good books, she has always been there when I needed her. A few years ago, I was burdened under peer pressure and had lost all hope in myself that is when she gave me the courage to be confident and optimistic. She made me fall in love with my own self and happily look forward to whatever comes next. I have seen her play the role of a mother, wife and daughter-in-law apart from an aunt and I must say she manages ...

I Thought I Was Brave

I thought I was brave but that was just a misconception. or you could call it a hallucination on my part. I, wrapped up in my cozy cocoon, hardly knew what it’s like to spread your wings for the first time and find that one of them is broken.

 Mc Kode, a rap artist from Delhi has been missing after posting a cryptic message on his Instagram story, about standing on an isolated bridge overlooking the Yamuna. Since then, people have been trying to search for him around all possible locations matching his description of the bridge. Several other rap artists such as Raftaar and Seedhe Maut and others on social media have posted about it. The reason behind Kode attempting to take such a drastic step is because an old video of his rap battles surfaced online. In it, he used slang to take jibes at the Hindu epic, Mahabharata, and “abused Hinduism.”  He soon became a target of local goons who threatened him, his family, and his friends. Moksh, a musician, took to Instagram to post a series of events that led to the disappearance of Kode. Brands terminated contracts with him and all of Kode's work was taken down from the Internet overnight.  Kode released an apology online, but it didn't satisfy the angry mobs that wan...
