About

India, said straight.

IndianCritic is opinion and commentary on Indian politics, sport, cinema, technology and cars — written by columnists who sign their name to what they think instead of hiding behind a house style.

Every writer here picks their own angle on their beat. We don't run a single editorial line, and two writers covering the same subject will sometimes disagree with each other in print — that's a feature, not an inconsistency to fix. What we do insist on is that opinion stays backed by facts: claims get sourced, and corrections run when we get something wrong.

This is commentary, not news reporting — we're not chasing the wire on breaking stories, we're telling you what to make of the ones that already happened.
