The Bhabanipur battle that unfurls between Mamta Banerjee and Suvendu Adhikari will be drawing the curtains tomorrow.

Cut to 2021 Assembly elections when the first direct confrontation between these 2 in Nandigram, let’s keep our fingers crossed over what happens tomorrow.

[Captain Manoj Rawat🇮🇳 @SeaSkipper]

This part of the petition against Great Nicobar Project is classic ‘anti-science’. It says:

“Seismic and Tsunami Risks:
   The Bay of Bengal region is seismically active, and the project heightens the risk of tsunamis. This increased seismic activity poses a danger not only to the island's infrastructure but also to the lives of its inhabitants as well as to the lives of other coastal area residents of the Bay of Bengal region.”

Science tells us that Tsunamis are caused by earthquakes in the deep sea. The earthquakes are result of ongoing shifts in undersea Tectonic plates.

So how does this Project on an Island ‘heighten the risk of Tsunamis’?

And if we accept this argument, bereft of any logic, that construction can cause tsunamis in the Bay of Bengal region, then the next demand will be to stop all developmental activities in the East Coast of India.

(Suggestion to petitioners: Next time get a science graduate to draft the petition rather than a JNU/TISS graduate so that the petition looks credible)

@dhruv_rathee Do share the AQI reading of the region where you are living so that we can have a parameter against which we can determine the degree of pollution.

@UpscScreenshots @grok pls elaborate on this.

[The Kaipullai @thekaipullai]

For everyone who is disappointed that we didn’t finish Pakistan. I have only one question.

What exactly do you mean by “Finish Pakistan”? What do you expect to do?

Do you want to do a WW2 style Operation Sickle Cut, launch armored pincer movements, encircle Pakistani armies and annex Pakistan? Why on earth would you want to do that?

Do you want to add 300 million hostile people, some of whom already think blowing themselves up is their greatest purpose in life? How will you manage them?

Is that how you will finish Pakistan?

Or do you want to nuke them out of existence?

Because let me give you a reality check here. We won’t do that. We can’t do that. Indian citizens cannot morally contemplate, let alone sanction, nuking 300 million people. So that option is out.

Then Someone said, “Let’s split Pakistan into 5 countries”.

Now, Pakistan isn’t some Ikea Furniture that you can assemble or disassemble at your will. As hopeless they may be, they still have a functioning military and a working bureaucracy. They will do anything they can to keep the country together.

With all our might, with all our focus, we can exploit that Faultline, but it will take a lot of money and energy and 10-15 years. Are you ready to wait that long?

Some people said we should do a large-scale attack on all their air bases, military bases, Ports, Military HQ everything. Obliterate them out of existence.

Sounds nice if you are movie general.

In reality if we do that, Pakistan will launch nukes on Mumbai and Delhi. Simple. Because it will be their last resort and they will exercise it.

Obviously, we will retaliate and wipe them out of existence, but are ready to lose our 2 big cities and the lives of 20 million Indians as a price for taking out their military?

I don’t think so.

Finally, what is War? War is nothing but politics by other means. And War without objective is pointless.

Any battle launched should be with a purpose.

Our purpose in this strike was two-fold

1. Send a message to Pakistan that for every Indian your terrorist kills, we will kill 100 of your terrorists. We will take you out even if you are ensconced in the heart of your country. We will come after your terrorists like a wrath of God.
2. If Pakistan retaliates, not only can we handle them, but we will also hit and twist the knife if it comes to that.

We have achieved it. In fact, we have more than achieved it.

We have put the fear of God in the terrorists. Obviously, they will try again, but this time they know we will hit back.

And we have clearly shown Pakistan that we can penetrate wherever we want into Pakistan, while the maximum they can do is look up and shake their fists.

Some people also speak about India being diplomatically isolated.

In this entire exercise, if anyone has been isolated, it is Pakistan.

In the olden days, as soon as something bad from Pakistan happened, most countries used to descend on us, asking us to be restrained, calm, resilient etc.

This time not only did nobody speak, but they also allowed us three days of complete freedom of action where we stuck fear in the hearts of the Pakistani military.

So much so, they had to beg to us to stop.

In international diplomacy, no country will come out and say “Please attack someone else. We are with you” .

They will support you only when you are being attacked. The fact that nobody said anything when we attacked, is a diplomatic success in itself. Just that we don’t see it.

To summarize, as far as Operation Sindoor is concerned

1. We sent 200 jihadis to where they belong.
2. Took out 9 terrorist locations deep inside Pakistan
3. Attacked all major Pakistani Air bases, made a complete mockery of their air defence system.
4. Made them beg for us to stop. I mean if it is a wrestling match, the person who taps out first is the one who loses. Pakistan tapped out. Ergo, they lost.
5. Ensured Indus Water Treaty is now firmly in the dustbin.
6. Have given ourselves the freedom to attack Pakistan as soon as a Terrorist incident takes place.

If this is not a win for us, then I don’t know what is.

P:S: India wants to be an advanced country and has to provide for 80 crore people who are below the age of 30.

We have to focus on industrialization, technological self-sufficiency and agricultural modernization.

We have higher priorities than fighting pointless wars against a country who has nothing and can give nothing.

Out of the $5Trillion GDP target. $500 Billion should be reserved for Pakistan bashing! We should have a Pradhanmantri Pakistan Thoko Yojana that should be launched & re-launched every time they do a misadventure in Valley!

[Mahish Singh @Mps_1701]

@TimesAlgebraIND The best chance to completely obliterate the terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan is missed. Dialogue and Diplomacy fostered once again, but have we negotiated a temporary relief? Only time will tell. In the mean time, let’s enjoy the ceasefire.
