1,08,24,651. That is how many names are on the SIR ASDD (absent, shifted, dead, duplicate) list in Karnataka. One in every five voters on the 2023 roll. Behind every one of those numbers is a person. A daughter who married and moved to another village. A migrant worker away for the harvest. A young man who stepped out when the booth officer came. A transgender citizen who has already spent a lifetime fighting to be counted. At SABAR Institute, we went through every single name, all 224 assembly constituencies, and this is what we found: 🔹 85% of those removed are alive. Only 15 in 100 were marked dead. 🔹In 5 Bengaluru seats, more names were deleted than the number of people who voted there in 2023. 🔹 42.7% of Karnataka's third-gender voters are on the list, more than twice the rate for everyone else. 🔹 Outside Bengaluru, among young voters marked "shifted", twice as many women as men were removed. 🔹 Poorer districts, and districts with more Scheduled Caste residents, lost more voters. We did this because a name on a roll is not paperwork. It is a voice. When the most vulnerable are struck off quietly, someone has to count. But here is the truth: SABAR Institute is entirely crowdfunded. No corporate money, no party money. Just people who believe this work matters. And right now, we are running out of funds. We have shown it can be done. We want to do this for every state that goes through SIR. We can't do it alone. If this work means something to you, please support us, with a monthly contribution or a one-time donation, whatever you can. Every rupee keeps this going. 🔗 Donation link in the next tweet. 🧵👇 (1/n) #DataForBetterLives

One in every five voters, left off new draft roll in Karnataka SIR. 85% persons whose names got deleted are alive, suggests the analysis of the special intensive revision (SIR) process. The plaints about arbitrary deletions and discrepancies have come up from other states too in the past. #Karnataka #SIR #India #TheAsianTribune #Bengaluru

The fear of AI stepping into all the fields and AI-driven jobs, automation leading to mass unemployment is causing unease in the society. Changes that took place in the past due to tech advancements had brought to fore similar anxieties earlier too, but the threat of machine replacing humans is more serious. #ArtificialIntelligence #Jobs #Unemployment #AI #TheAsianTribune

TCS Nashik: Employees allegedly pressured to convert. National outrage. Prime time coverage. Justified. TCS Pune: Amit Bramhe, 48, dies by suicide. His note names two female colleagues for workplace harassment AND a man... Vinod Pali... for filing false FIRs, sending fake complaints to TCS and systematically destroying his life after a personal dispute. News Headlins: " FIR against 2 female colleagues." Vinod Pali... the man who allegedly got Amit booked at Hinjewadi PS, sent a lawyer's notice and submitted fabricated emails... doesn't make the cut. Amit's wife has cancer. His teenage son filed the FIR. Three people are booked for abetment of suicide. 👉 Same company, two very different standards of outrage and reporting.

Bulldozers entered Garib Nagar, Bandra at dawn on May 19. 500 homes. Two decade-old mosques. 5,200 sq metres of land worth ₹600 crore. A five-day drive. Court-backed. Railway-led. Government-celebrated. But ask one question — why here, why now, why these structures — and the demolition logic begins to collapse. #GaribNagarDemolition #BulldozerPolitics 1/12
