- When a Newspaper Chose Silence Over Censorship | Indian Express Special

- Description
- What happens when a newspaper refuses to publish under censorship?
In 1942, as the Quit India Movement swept across British India, newspapers faced a stark choice: follow colonial censorship rules or risk their presses, newsprint and even their freedom. The Indian Express chose to stop printing rather than publish under conditions it believed would turn a newspaper into little more than a government mouthpiece.
This documentary looks back at the Indian press between 1942 and 1948 — from the Quit India Movement and the censorship of wartime journalism, to the INA trials, the Royal Indian Navy Mutiny, Independence and Partition, and the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi.
Through the front pages and newsroom decisions of the era, we explore how journalists worked under censorship, limited technology, telegraph delays, political pressure and extraordinary uncertainty — and how the press understood its responsibility during some of the most consequen...

- Five Major Takeaways From PM Modi’s 2026 Independence Day Speech
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Independence Day speech from the Red Fort today was packed with announcements, promises and, importantly, political messaging.
From Viksit Bharat 2047 and Aatmanirbharta to artificial intelligence, youth and energy security, the Prime Minister laid out his vision for the India of the future.
But the speech also carried a sharper political edge.
PM Modi attacked the Opposition, warned against what he called “dimagi Naxal” thinking, and framed the battle for India’s future as one between national confidence and forces that, according to him, seek to create fear and division.
Here are the five major takeaways from PM Modi’s 2026 Independence Day speech.

- Description
- Did you know January 26 was once celebrated as India’s Independence Day? In 1929, under Jawaharlal Nehru’s call for poorna swaraj, Congress marked January 26 as the chosen date for freedom. But historic events in the years leading up to 1947 changed that — with August 15 becoming our Independence Day, and January 26 later commemorated as Republic Day, the day India’s Constitution came into force. Here’s the fascinating history behind the dates that define our nation.

- Description
- India’s Gen Z is changing the way the country spends, saves — and borrows.
For generations, Indian households followed a simple rule: save first, spend later. But that financial mindset is changing rapidly. Young Indians are entering the credit system earlier, using credit cards, personal loans and Buy Now Pay Later schemes to fund everything from travel and concerts to everyday consumption.
As of March 2026, non-housing retail loans accounted for 58.4% of total household borrowings, while the average outstanding debt per borrower reached ₹4.78 lakh. Unsecured personal loans stood at ₹17.32 lakh crore, while credit-card debt crossed ₹3 lakh crore.
And Gen Z is entering this credit economy earlier than previous generations. 41% of first-time borrowers are now Gen Z, while the credit-active population has risen sharply over the past decade.
But is this simply a sign of a modern, aspirational India — or is it creating a new f...

- Rahul Gandhi’s decision not to attend the Prime Minister’s high tea for MPs can be viewed as a politically significant gesture. It may signal the Opposition’s preference for maintaining political distance from the government, particularly amid ongoing disagreements in Parliament. Symbolically, his absence can be interpreted as an assertion of Opposition positioning rather than participation in a cross-party engagement hosted by the Prime Minister. Neeta Sharma reports.
