Dear Reader,

Most news outlets chase the next big headline. At Scroll, we stay with the story – long after the noise dies down.

When a 21-year-old Muslim man was lynched in Maharashtra, the headlines briefly screamed “Love Jihad”. We dug deeper and uncovered the alleged networks behind the mob and how hate was quietly organised.

When a video surfaced of a young Bengali labourer wrongly deported to Bangladesh, it trended for a moment on social media. But we kept reporting. Our investigation revealed an alleged attempt to cover up the unlawful deportation and the painful struggle his family endured to bring him home.

And when a wall collapsed in Mumbai’s richest neighbourhood, killing a poor migrant worker, others reported it as just another rain tragedy. We asked hard questions about civic neglect and why the lives of the poor are treated as disposable.

These stories matter – not just when they’re trending, but long after. Because justice, accountability and truth don’t follow the news cycle.
