I have this exact book: Ghosts, Monsters, and Demons of India by: Rakesh Khanna & J. Furcifer Bhairav for those curious. And yes, sometimes some stories like these exist because of other cultures creating/attributing myths to other places.

Few famous examples: Griffins and the Indus Valley Worm

So Griffins and the Indus Valley Worm are creatures thought to have existed in India by Greek philosophers and scientists of the time. They made up the creatures but believed their origins to be "far exotic and from/to the east" a lot of storytelling has worked this way.

The Three Princes of Serendip (old name for Ceylon/Sri Lanka) is the first story of Serendipity (where we get the word btw) of just fun adventures (slice of life) about three Sri Lankan Princes. Only, it's not Sri Lankan in origin. It's Persian made up for entertainment ABOUT Sri Lanka.

Copy of the book for those interested:

It's a brilliant collection btw.

Mass protests are taking place in India after a female doctor was found mutilated, sexually assaulted and murdered. Medics want protection and a better working environment - but many expect little to change. Hundreds of doctors and medical staff were protesting on the streets of Delhi this weekend against the brutal rape and murder of their colleague. It is an unprecedented campaign that has resulted in a 24-hour strike at all government hospitals. They were also being joined in solidarity by private practitioners across the country.

Starting with "The revolution is about to televised" when you're performing for an institution that literally pushes military propaganda, and who also would have signed off AND approved the performance before hand, and people are praising you for "sticking it to the powers" as if you did not spend the past 15 months with complete silence about Congo, Sudan, Palestine who are being decimated by your country, while claiming your life and art is about activism is certainly as USAmerican as it gets.

Britain and Mauritius Reach Sovereignty Agreement on Chagos Islands

Britain announced on Thursday a significant agreement to transfer sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius. This deal will enable individuals displaced decades ago to return home while allowing London to maintain operational control of the UK-US military base on Diego Garcia.

British Foreign Minister David Lammy stated that the agreement ensures the continued operation of Diego Garcia, a strategically important military base jointly managed with the United States. The deal also paves the way for Mauritius to resettle its population on the islands, which were evacuated years ago.

“This government inherited a situation where the long-term, secure operation of the Diego Garcia military base was under threat due to contested sovereignty and ongoing legal challenges,” Lammy said. “Today’s agreement secures this vital military base for the future and strengthens our role in safeguarding global security, while also shutting down any potential use of the Indian Ocean as a dangerous illegal migration route to the UK.”

Britain has maintained control over the region since 1814, having detached the Chagos Islands from Mauritius in 1965. This move was made to establish the British Indian Ocean Territory, and in the early 1970s, nearly 2,000 residents were forcibly relocated to Mauritius and the Seychelles to facilitate the construction of the airbase.

In 2019, the World Court ruled that Britain should relinquish control of the islands, condemning the forced removal of the population in the 1970s to accommodate the US airbase.

The recent political agreement between Britain and Mauritius has garnered support from both the United States and India.

MASSIVE FARMER'S PROTESTS OUTSIDE INDIAN CAPITAL AND ACROSS THE NORTH OF THE COUNTRY

📹 Massive protests are confronted with teargas, armed police with rubber bullets and drones as thousands of farmers, mostly in India's northern Punjab region, protest on Tuesday demanding a Minimum Support Price or MSP for all crops to raise farmer's income.

Dozens of Farmer's unions participated in the strikes, calling for a "Delhi Chalo" or March to Delhi.

Police in and around the capital have erected barriers on highways surrounding New Delhi, and have begun firing tear gas and rubber bullets at the approaching farmers.

Tractors, along with thousands of farm hands, are seen in footage nearing the outskirts of New Delhi, in the northern Haryana state, being confronted by officers with gas and smoke bombs, including some dropped from buzzing drones overhead.

Authorities have shut down Internet services in some areas where protestors approach, and have erected concrete roadblocks and barriers, while local officials have banned public gatherings and are deploying extra security personnel.

Officials in New Delhi emphasized that sufficient police and paramilitary personnel have been deployed to all entry points to the city.

Farmers are demanding dozens of changes, including a new MSP or floor price for crops to increase and guarantee farmer income, as well as a full debit waiver, according to local union officials.

Political officials in New Delhi say they're open to talks, with Agriculture Minister, Arjun Munda telling reporters on Tuesday that the Federal government already is "bound to protect the interest of farmers."

"Farmers also need to understand that inconvenience shouldn’t be caused to the public,” Minister Munda said, adding the government was always ready for negotiations with the Farmer's unions.

“We are ready to do everything possible to find a solution to this issue,” he said.
