it's a good lie, but the biggest remains- playing 1 chess game before bed. Any chess player, amateur & professional included, can second this

@SaketGokhale @jualoram behind the parliamentary record. Given your engagement with the project, would you be willing to spare 15–20 minutes (or 30, if convenient) for a brief conversation? Your perspective would be valuable to our work. Thank you, Sir.

@SaketGokhale @jualoram Hi Sir, I’m Adarsh, a 4th-year B.A. LL.B. (Hons.) student at NALSAR University of Law. Four of us are working on the Great Nicobar project, and it has become much more than an academic exercise for us - the more we read, the more we feel the need to understand what lies..cont.

@suranjanadutta6 @Deep_Take001 You've great comprehension skills and understanding of context is top notch. Kudos 👏 😆

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@suranjanadutta6 @Deep_Take001 levels today with the players who played in relatively primative era.
The only point worth highlighting here is irrespective of the hate you might have for him, it shouldn't be denied that he's a terrific player. 3rd best player in the whole word in an insanely competitive sport

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@suranjanadutta6 @Deep_Take001 Don't want to stretch arguments but I would give one clarification before heading off.
I didn't say he's in the conversation of ATG debate currently.
When I said he could be in ATG debates before big 3 era, it was a bit of ragebait b/c the comparison was based on zverev's

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@suranjanadutta6 @Deep_Take001 I've things to say but I'll not dignify your comment with any merit based arguments.
There's no need to use words like 'unless you don't have Brains to understand it'.
You might disagree all you want but there's a certain civility to making your points

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@suranjanadutta6 @Deep_Take001 The H2H only reveals the results of matches in which they faced. It doesn't speak of any more context. That's obvious.
There have been matches played in which zverev was going through a poor form as well

As for comparison, there's no comparison b/w atp & wta players...lol

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@Deep_Take001 only rivalry with Doper looks lopsided, but still, he has carved 4 wins for himself even in this rivalry. Terrific tennis player. Would have been an all-time great in the pre-Big Three era

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@Deep_Take001 honestly not Zverev's fault that alacraz and doper crashed out early or were injured.
zverev is a tier-below player compared to the above-mentioned two guys, but we've to remember he is the same guy who led H2H against fed and has respectable h2h against alacraz, GOAT & the nadal

@ItzzZain10 not in direct reply to this tweet but j wondering why do you dislike ryba more than saba? Sabalenka is a SORE loser who keeps losing her mind in big matches, and her tantrums could be overwhelming to the viewers, while Rybakina is a humble, classy lady & her tennis is pure art

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@cric_blog Unfortunately he's become Personification of stagnancy in batsmanship

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@Zwxsh Shameless Account, have some fuc**** shame and stop chasing engagement

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@Deep_Take001 made me laugh- Roger being the GOAT

6 YEARS: FROM COVID TO IRAN
TIME FOR SOME PAINFUL TRUTHS 🚨

Six turbulent years from Covid to the Ladakh standoff to Ukraine war to Trump’s tariff offensive to the current Iran war have exposed a hard truth. India remains dangerously dependent on the world for things a serious power should control at home.

Energy first, since that’s on everyone’s mind right now. India imports about 85% of its crude oil and roughly 50% of its natural gas. We depend heavily on overseas supply chains for critical minerals like lithium, cobalt and nickel that will power the next generation of batteries and energy systems. Any disruption anywhere from the Strait of Hormuz to sanctions on major producers immediately ripples through LPG prices, electricity costs and inflation. The current LPG anxiety during the Iran war is just the latest reminder of how exposed we are.

Defence is worse. Despite decades of rhetoric about indigenisation, India still imports roughly 45 to 50% of its major weapons systems, making it one of the world’s largest arms importers, if not the largest. During the Ladakh standoff with China (which is still on) the country had to rush through emergency purchases of munitions, drones, artillery shells and winter gear because either we don’t make those items or domestic capacity could not surge quickly enough. A country facing two nuclear adversaries should never have to scramble for weapons in the middle of a military standoff.

Pharmaceuticals reveal another uncomfortable truth. India is known as the pharmacy of the world, yet around 70% of our active pharmaceutical ingredients come from outside, including China. During Covid this vulnerability became obvious as India scrambled for oxygen, PPE kits, ventilators and key medical inputs.

Technology dependence is the most alarming of all. More than 90% of advanced semiconductors are imported, most high end AI chips and servers are foreign made, and critical digital hardware depends almost entirely on global supply chains. In an era where AI will define both economic power and military capability, this is a profound strategic vulnerability.

Add fertiliser precursors, rare earths, electronics components, solar modules and specialised machine tools and the list becomes even longer. Each time the world experiences a shock (Ukraine, Iran, Azerbaijan, Covid) whether it is a pandemic, sanctions on Russia, a war in West Asia or rising great power tensions India is forced into code red emergency management mode.

The uncomfortable reality is that true strategic autonomy requires historically painful decisions. Building domestic capacity in energy, weapons, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors and AI will demand huge investment, long term industrial policy, and years of political risk. It may mean accepting higher costs and slower returns in the short term in order to build resilience for the long term.

But India’s election to election political cycle rewards short term thinking. No government wants to take decisions that may, beyond a point, take a decade to pay off. The decisions these crises compel from a country like India will mean a total dismantlement of our politics as we know it today. It will mean a generation of turning the country on its head.

Yet the alternative is worse. As things stand India remains structurally vulnerable. A country that has to scramble every time the world shakes cannot claim true strategic autonomy.

From COVID to Iran, the last six years have made that painfully clear.

@cric_blog It's ODI- best of the other 2 formats.
It also has the OG T'ment - CWC

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@ItzzZain10 Irrespective of this match, there's no big3. There's the Big 1 (djokovic) + 2

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@Dheerajsingh_ Sinner played as well as he has even been. Just because he got defeated by the GOAT, doesn't make his play any less good. I believe your bias and the strong urge to see sinner win is making you say this absurd stuff

[Legend @Aditya28007390]

@Zwxsh Tbh there's no big 3. There's a BIG 1 ( King Djokovic) and the other 2 guys (fed and nadal) are +2
