Gallery - Krishna Prabhakar

It’s just a summary;like a gallery
Filled not with
Paintings or statues but
With waiting and long queues
Queues to the heart
Waiting in the mind;
Your blacks and reds blend
to form the loneliest brown
Just like crusty leaves of autumn;
The night sky questions
Why the grey formed by combining two
Opposites feels like four crosses…
My soul wanders
It wonders how home feels
less like home and more like you;
Eyes see how rainbows
Are less vibrant than the clothes you wear;
Ears hear how catty
Can turn into flattery;
Hands not typing to stop you
but just to tell
That…
It’s just a summary…

Pride: Personal Identity, Social Movement and a Tale of Oppression - Shaleen Shukla

  An opinionated piece probably exceeding thousand words about Pride from a hetero-cis guy is the last thing anyone, including myself would want to read. But it is necessary when you are expected to write a discourse piece for The Weekly Edge. On a more serious note, it is also indicative of the lack of representation of queer people across the board. Our club is one that takes immense pride in standing by the LGBTQ+ community as staunch, outspoken representatives and allies. And yet, the fabled ‘Seat at the Table’ for the queer community remains unoccupied, in our organization and in all others. I had the chance to listen to Emma D’Arcy, who plays Rhaenyra in HBO’s House of the Dragon, talking about the struggles she faced while coming out as non binary. Juggling her acting career, her gender identity and her moral choices. And I was constantly in awe of the sheer strength and character she had displayed through all those circumstances. There are a lot of examples, stories and l...

Vote-But How? - Amogh Shukla

Voting is crucial to the survival of a representative democracy, but so is the system through which it is implemented. There are various methods around the globe through which votes can be cast and the results calculated. These systems are known as “electoral systems." An electoral system defines the set of rules through which elections are conducted and their results are formulated. Voting is limited not just to politics and government selection but also applies to corporations, non-profits etc. Wherever voting occurs, there will be a particular set of people who are allowed to vote. It is referred to by multiple names, like an electoral college, an electoral roll, or simply an electorate.
