They were building massive prisons for the muslims they were gonna strip citizenship from, it didn't seem like a "wait a few years for the crackdown" situation.

Yeah it seemed like they were going full steam ahead but these articles are over two years old and either the plans were abandoned or they were super careful to keep it quiet, because I'm not finding anything recent on the situation. Maybe Mondi is/was hoping to earn favor from Russia to veto any inevitable resolutions once things got rolling but now it's a bit awkward.

Yeah, that's what I mean, it seems like Modi had these big plans that are right now on indefinite pause from the pandemic, possibly never to be resumed. Maybe after the devastation of an estimated 4 million deaths, Modi's a bit shy about trying to remove 200 million muslims from the country.

To be fair it’s probably Pakistan’s own Army behind the attempt

The man was shot. How is that a supposed assassination attempt?

Might've convincingly been trying for someone else, if the shot was inaccurate enough?

I'm a little curious what the ideological objection is to the periodic table, of all things. I know the Vedas sometimes allude to a system of five elements similar to the classical Greek ones, but has Hindu fundamentalism really gone that far?

Apparently, this reorganisation isn't just deleting things, but shifting them around. So the periodic table will be taught one year earlier, while evolution will be taught one year later. Possibly some sincere pedagogical reason for this, but also possibly backloading a bunch of less-approved-of topics to after a certain average number of students have left school.

It's a periodic table not an all the time table.
