The Quran offers enduring principles of justice, freedom, and equality—principles designed to challenge oppression, dismantle systemic inequalities, and inspire collective upliftment. However, fully realizing these values demands a humanist and liberation theological lens—one that reads the Quran not just as a divine text but as a manifesto for social transformation.
“That Strong Spirit of Palestinian Emancipation”; “Hamas’s Strategic Survival Drives Israel Crazy”; and: “Contrasting Reality: Treatment of Israeli and Palestinian Prisoners”.

Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
