This is outstanding ...

[Arpita Shaiva @arpispeaks]

While we often praise Indira Gandhi for the 1971 war, we should certainly read the statement made in the Pakistani parliament by Asif Ali Zardari—the husband of Benazir Bhutto.

This was a time when over 90,000 Pakistani soldiers were in Indian custody, and the Pakistan Army had surrendered. The Indian Army had integrated the Tharparkar district of Sindh into India—declaring it a new district of Gujarat—and the Tricolour had been hoisted over the parliament building in Muzaffarabad.

When Zulfikar Ali Bhutto arrived to sign the Simla Agreement with Indira Gandhi, he brought his daughter, Benazir Bhutto, along with him.

Indira Gandhi placed a condition before Zulfikar Ali Bhutto: if he wanted his 93,000 soldiers back, he would have to hand over Kashmir to India. Bhutto refused, telling her that he would not give up Kashmir, nor would he sign any such agreement; he told her to keep the 93,000 soldiers herself.

Indira Gandhi had never imagined that Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was an even shrewder player than she was. He knew how to turn a military defeat at the border into a victory at the negotiating table.

Indira Gandhi found herself in a very tight spot.

Both Pupul Jayakar and Kuldip Nayar have written in their books that Indira Gandhi missed a crucial opportunity; neither she nor her advisors possessed the diplomatic acumen required to handle such a situation.

Under the Geneva Convention, if a country captures prisoners of war, it is obligated to fully uphold their dignity. That evening at the hotel, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto said to his daughter, Benazir Bhutto, "India's back has been broken in this war; we fought with great valor. We have dealt a severe blow to India's economy. India was already burdened by Bangladeshi refugees; how will it now sustain 93,000 Pakistani soldiers? And if India wants to settle these 93,000 Pakistani soldiers there, let it do so—what use would we have for such cowardly soldiers anyway? I have reduced Indira Gandhi to a pathetic state."

And in the end, Indira Gandhi was reduced to a meek, cowering figure.

Indira Gandhi handed over Kashmir to Pakistan, returned the 93,000 soldiers, and abandoned 56 of her own soldiers to die in Pakistani prisons. Furthermore, eight months later—driven by a desire for the Nobel Prize—she returned the Tharparkar district (which had been incorporated into the Indian state of Gujarat) to Pakistan, even though 98% of Tharparkar's population at the time was Hindu.

In the book he wrote after retiring, the Army Chief at the time of the Shimla Agreement stated, "We won this war on the battlefield, but politicians defeated India at the negotiating table—and that politician was Indira Gandhi."

This is the truth about the so-called 'Iron Lady'...

Mehbooba Mufti faces strong opposition from Kashmiri Pandits at the Kheerbhawani Temple in Ganderbal, Kashmir for her Pro-Pakistan stance and for playing down Kashmiri Hindu genocide since 1989-90. Mufti had asked Hindus to forget forced exodus to move on.

@ARanganathan72 @myogiadityanath I lost a colleague when I was working in a co in Noida, 2004-05. A young, energetic program manager in my team. Went to home town for Deepavali, didn't return to office. Japanese encephalitis took him away.

Cong, SaPa can say anything, but people know how Yogi has delivered.

In the decade preceding @myogiadityanath’s tenure, UP suffered 47,509 cases of Encephalitis leading to 8,373 infant deaths.

34 million vaccinations and 21 million tap water connections later, comes the news that for more than 2 years running, UP has reported 0 deaths. Stunning.

[Aditya Raj Kaul @AdityaRajKaul]

After 36 long years of exile, an elderly Kashmiri Pandit woman returned to her ancestral home in Danew, Bogund, Kulgam.

The moment she stepped into her courtyard, time seemed to stand still. She bent down, touched the soil she had been separated from for decades, and kissed the old walnut tree that had silently witnessed her childhood, her memories, and her absence.

Overcome with emotion, she broke down in tears. She knelt before the tree, folded her hands in prayer, and embraced it as if she were reuniting with a beloved family member lost to time.

With a trembling voice, she whispered in Kashmiri:

“Che cheya b’e yaad?”
(“Do you remember me?”)

A question not just to a tree, but to a home, a homeland, and a lifetime of memories left behind.

One of the most heart-wrenching scenes you will ever witness, a reminder that exile may separate people from their homes, but never from their roots.

36+ years of forced exodus from homeland Kashmir. Hope the world remembers the genocide and ethnic cleansing against Hindus of Kashmir.

[JAVED IQBAL SHAH @JAVED0909]

Dear @ShashiTharoor, it appears your view is obscured by the tinted lens of J&K elites hospitality. For a seasoned statesman, your flamboyance has settled far too easily upon the surface of things - evident in your flattering imagery of His Excellency chatting with "women’s organizations" whose roots in Kashmir's actual society are remarkably shallow. To truly understand Kashmir today, one must look beyond theatrical optics.

The grim reality of the last seven years of Central rule post-370 is that the collective wisdom & democratic agency of J&K have been entirely appropriated. The joke in Kashmir is paramours & Delhi minted upstarts (read brokers) run the show. Power rests not with the people, but within a closed canopy of the LG Administration, a few handpicked bureaucrats & an insulated circle of systemic favorites. This carefully orchestrated division of authority was never designed to push for structural change, integrity, meritocracy, or accountability. Instead, it serves as a facilitating umbrella under which chosen vested interests flourish at the nation’s expense, shielding the region's most corrupt and debased.

Consider the staggering lack of legal conclusion: not a single big fish who looted and plundered this state 70 long years pre-370 has been brought to book. The hundreds of scams perpetrated upon a subordinated populace - including the multi-billion-dollar Roshni land grab - remain buried. In fact, new administrative frameworks are currently being subtly designed to regularize past land grabs that the Apex Court itself explicitly deemed daylight robbery.

Meanwhile, genuine dissent & legitimate inquisition made in the truest national interest are swiftly guillotined. Individuals asking the right questions are instantly labeled "anti-national" rather than "anti-BJP," and left to languish in incarceration without trial. I myself was threatened by the @JmuKmrPolice on one occasion. The unemployed youth of Kashmir suffer not merely from government apathy, but from a curated tyranny of reservation discrimination, navigating an environment entirely devoid of transparency.

Security and fundamental rights have been reduced to the pleasure consort of a rootless systemic elite, opportunistic brokers and blue-eyed boys. A predatory new parasitic class of middlemen & power-brokers has hijacked J&K’s administration & civil society. Make no mistake: these actors have absolutely nothing to do with the ideological convictions of @BJP4India, the strategic national imperatives of @AmitShah or @PMOIndia @narendramodi's profound vision of #NayaKashmir. They are simply bleeding the state through brazen opportunism and wanton loot, trading the nation's long-term peace for short-term plunder while they still can. Take those colored glasses off, sir; the "normalcy" you applauded is merely a gilded cage. #NayaKashmirPuraneChor

My deepest condolences on the demise of the wife of the late Khawaja Ghulam Mohiuddin Shah, a distinguished politician and stalwart of the National Conference.

In this hour of grief, I extend my heartfelt sympathies to the bereaved family, particularly his sons, Dr. Imtiyaz Shah, Ishfaq Shah and former MLA Irfan Shah.

May the departed soul rest in eternal peace, and may the Almighty grant the family the strength and patience to bear this irreparable loss.

Really shocking. Rajdeep Sardesai directly accuses CM Revanth Reddy & Telangana PCC members of doing internal sabotage & leaking details of case against Minakshi Natarajan.

CM Reddy can't even get Rajdeep arrested also as he's Cerified CONgress Dalla.

Rajdeep is talking about an old segment of his on NDTV called "24 Hours With Manmohan Singh"

For me, this was the best part of his report, where Rajdeep reports on what shoes Dr. Singh wears when.

Well done, Rajdeep!

A tribal singer sang a song with a few Urdu words and made a reel in Arunachal Pradesh.

Some Muslims immediately started messaging him, pressuring him to convert to Islam.

He replied: “I am a Hindu, a proud Hindu. I will die but I won’t accept Islam. I am loyal to my religion.”

A man spends 50 years teaching at MIT.

He knows his time is running out.

So he records one last lecture — everything he knows, distilled into a single hour.

He died 5 months later.

This is that lecture.

The most important hour you'll watch this week. 👇
