With 31 articles in July, can we just say what a month it has been. These articles were written despite unit tests coming up at the end of the month and we're sure you all agree they were still top-notch. There were certain gems that received so much love and moved us Devansh going out of his comfort zone to write about Humans Crossing the Line. Also worth mentioning is that sports really shined through this month with not just the regular articles from Sriram, but a special soccer one. In fact, Vox Populi also featured Sports Captain Yash’s article. Another interesting underlying theme last month was the collaborations that were seen. There were phenomenal articles produced because they say teamwork makes dream work. So, wrapping the month up, here are the top 5 articles from July-
5. Why Liverpool will never forget- written by Arnav Sampigethaya may sound like an odd sports article in the Current affairs column, but we can assure you it is a media conspiracy worth reading. It talks about media, police and their interlinking with the sports community. While focused on Liverpool, it shadows the concept of how radical behaviour from media and police can make or break society.

3.What are we- by Edha Singh, in collaboration with Eesha Gorti is the latest quid ultra article that received a lot of love. It is a rant accompanied by tidbits of philosophy and psychology to give you a package of relatable and reflective. Quite a long read, but worth it, because after all it talks about the musings of every normal being when in any relationship, questioning ‘what are we’.
2. The Puzzle of Jon Benets Murder- written by Monisha Shivaraj is the most phenomenal article the fashion has column has produced. It is an immersive read into the death of a child model and the conspiracies surrounding it.
