India's bulletin board: crime, water politics and the case for anticipatory statecraft
A single day's Indian Express headlines trace the fault lines running through the country: a banana dispute that ended in an army veteran's murder, motorcycle pilots squeezed by an app, and a quiet argument that diplomacy needs to stop reacting.

Desk note: Monexus treats this Indian Express cluster as a domestic-affairs bulletin rather than a single story, paraphrasing the paper's reporting and opinions without reproducing its wire copy. The geopolitical reading sits in the framing of the three essays, where the paper itself is doing the structural argument; Monexus adds the editorial judgement that the bulletins' six items together describe a state running behind its own pace.
