Introducing Shastra


Dear Reader,

Do you have 50 tabs open on your laptop with stories for you to "read later"? Do you have 100s of news articles or reports bookmarked to "read later"?

And if you finally get around to reading them, how many of these do you find actually worth cluttering your devices and more importantly, your brains?

And these are just things to read. What about those videos and podcasts in the 'Watch Later' section?

It's easy to get drowned and overwhelmed in the clutter. We’re therefore sort of changing track.

Swarajya now commits to publishing ONLY ONE in-depth, fully researched report each day. One medium-length, insightful article every day. Politics, economics, technology, foreign policy, culture, and more.

But only ONE.

One that you will actually read. One that won't lie around in your 'to reads' One that is worth your time and attention.

Why should you take interest? You get what you see. Take a look at some of the stories we did in the past few days and then decide:

  1. How Ladakh Became India’s Testing Ground For Human Habitation Beyond Earth: A secretive 21-day space analogue mission in Ladakh could be India's first step towards putting an Indian on Mars or Moon.


  • Why India’s MSMEs Are Struggling While China’s 'Little Giants' Thrive: While India’s 63 million small businesses are struggling, China’s 14,600 innovative SMEs are thriving in high-tech sectors like AI and aerospace. Amit Mishra finds out why.

  • The Untold Story Of Hindu Munnani: The Street Fighters For Dharma: The untold story of these Dharmic warriors fighting against Dravidian assault, conversions, radical Islamism, interference in temples deserves your attention.

  • For Only 20% School Attendance, Bihar Spends A Whopping ₹54,000 Crores A Year: Despite record budgets, Bihar's education system remains a paradox with low enrollment and reading levels. Abhishek Kumar finds out why.
