Spoke to our Intel folks & confirmed with an air defence commander in Amritsar. At least two of the artillery rockets (and possibly some of the drones) intercepted yesterday were on a trajectory to hit the Golden Temple.
This is curious because Pakistanis have carefully avoided targeting Sikhs for the last 25 years. Their strategy was to keep both the Khalistan & Kashmir insurgencies boiling. A strike on the Golden Temple therefore makes no sense.
The initial Intel assessment is that they wanted to blame India for it, claiming we used their shelling, drone and rocket strikes to destroy the golden temple. Apparently some phone/whatsapp chatter was picked up indicated coordination with Khalistani “activists” in Canada, US, UK & India to start a tweet storm accusing India of blowing up the golden temple & incite some riots in India.
The blackouts in Amritsar yesterday were a last ditch attempt to prevent/preempt any drone from hitting the Golden Temple
P.S drone paths are impossible to predict as they don’t follow a trajectory like rockets do. Hence the uncertainty about their intended target - just that their flight path was en route to the temple .
This child’s horrifying death will never make headlines, nor will his parents be awarded any sarkari compensation or even sympathy, coz his name is Mishra, and he was not a SC/ST/Muzlim
“Should India’s response to the Afghanistan crisis depend on a person’s faith?”

Slogans of "Punjab wants Azadi" & demand for Khalistan being raised in Punjab in the name of farmers' protest.
Yes, this is happening in India.
Govt should take the required action immediately before the situation gets out of hand.

कोलकाता में भाजपा के धरने के लिए बना मंच तोड़ दिया गया और इसे तोड़ने का आरोप राजनीतिक कार्यकर्ताओं पर नहीं बल्कि पुलिस पर है।
ममता बनर्जी ने राज्य में पुलिस का भी अपराधिकरण कर दिया है।

If you come to know of any child who has lost both parents to COVID and has no one to take care of her/him, inform Police or Child Welfare Committee of your district or contact Childline 1098. It is your legal responsibility.
just wanted y’all to know that the actor who (among other parts) also played the iconic Ibu Hatella in Gunda (Harish Patel) has a part in Marvel’s The Eternals, glimpses of which we saw in the new lineup. Never give up on that dream

I fail to see why BJP cannot understand that Mamata is out to humiliate and rub their noses in the dirt.
