I feel like a lot of news from India just doesn't get a lot of attention here. Someone pointed out how we still have yet to hear anything much about how they had the biggest election in practically world history, had a worker's strike that showed an insane degree of solidarity, and now have a new strain? TBH even details on how H1B is affecting folks from there seems to be oddly quiet.

Then again, a colleague of mine also told me that they're going to try pushing ivermectin to treat their COVID problem, so maybe a few blessings between the curses.

Very true. I've found the Times of India online to be a good source and the BBC Asian Network for online radio, in Britain "Asian" seems to more commonly mean South Asia whereas here in the US it seems to more commonly mean East Asia.

Different immigration patterns.

YMMV and obviously does, but I've found ToI very disappointing after several months reading it, and an Indian acquaintance said that it's been going downhill for a long while and has been licking Modi's boots since he became Prime Minister. On that friend's suggestion, I switched to Indian Express about 5 weeks ago, and I like it so far, especially its willingness to engage with concrit on Twitter.

Thank you for the recommendation, I'd not known of Indian Express, I find Modi scary and sad, so much for openness and inclusivity.
