• Who: Ramya Abhinand
• What: “The Vanishing Brides of Haryana”
• Tangy: Haryana has one of the worst sex ratios in India, and the violence against female foetuses and babies has given rise to a new phenomenon – lack of brides for eligible young Haryanvi men. The people have found a solution to the problem, but this solution is a problem in itself.

• Who: Kirti Sharma
• What: “Do You Know About Facebook’s New Suicide Prevention Tool”
• Tangy: There are times when we see ‘feeling depressed’ or ‘feeling hopeless’ as our friend’s statuses, but don’t know how to help them. Facebook can now be a place where suicidal people find succour, with a new tool where you can report a depressed status of a friend and Facebook will reach out to them. With social media taking over all aspects of our life, this is a great way to help people who are too shy to ask help.

• Who: Desh Kapoor
• What: “The Many Shades of Lust”

• Who: Ritcha
• What: “Hosting the perfect #WorldCup2015 party at home”
• Tangy: Watching World Cup matches is much more fun if you have friends around. And we don’t mean just sitting around on the couch with a bowl of popcorn. The Cricket World Cup calls for a real get together and here are some pointers about hosting a great WC party.

• Who: Amreen B. Shaikh
• What: “THE TEARS IN HER EYES”
• Tangy: Hunters are considered quite brave and hunting was a favourite pastime among the royalty of yore. But really, where is the bravery in killing a defenceless animal just for your pleasure and bragging rights?

• Who: Jim Jacob
• What: “NO COUNTRY FOR INTROVERTS”
• Tangy: Extroversion is considered a good quality to have while introverts are labelled as shy, awkward or incapable of being leaders. Is it so bad that someone prefers to remain quiet and is happy in their own company?

• Who: Jyotsna Bhatia
• What: “Ah, you weather!!”
• Tangy: India was preparing to sweat it out in the sun and we had started stocking up on sunscreen when suddenly the skies opened up and it started drizzling, catching us off-guard! The weather can have a profound effect on all of us, as this blog post explains.
