"Though defenders of Indian traditions will refer to the Upanishads as proof of our critical nature, reality tells us another story. We do not know how to question. We do not like being questioned. We will condemn the questioner." @tmkrishna
Overvalued market, falling rupee, unreliable taxation rules, no faith in capcity expansion and foreign manufacturers have taken their investment away. The inward FDI is mostly from tax havens, essentially India's black money returning as FDI.
In this article published in The Hindu (May 27, 2026), K. Venkataramanan offers a lucid analysis of how the law, as interpreted by the Supreme Court of India in a 2019 judgment, deals with the interplay between the disqualification and resignation of legislators and the limited options available to the Speaker to act on these matters. This judgment is relevant to the disqualification & resignation drama being played out within and outside the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly in May 2026.
Here is the official link to the binding November 13, 2019 judgment of the Supreme Court of India:

This well-reasoned and judicious judgment was delivered by the Bench of Justices N.V. Ramana, Sanjiv Khanna, and Krishna Murari of the Supreme Court of India in WP(C) No. 992 of 2019 (Shrimanth Balasaheb Patil) and the connected petitions (WP(C) Nos. 997, 998, 1000 of 2019 and others). The issues revolved round the disqualification of Karnataka MLAs by the Speaker. The Conclusion can be read on pages 108-111 of the pdf text.
@KasthuriShankar Do you want to say that students of Tamilnadu mentally ill/week? Ma'am, it's a political game,,,, unnecessarily politicians and medias are responsible for killing young students. We don't find the same situations and case in rest of India.
I am not saying #banNEET or #scrapNEET. But we have to accept the fact that Tamil Nadu simply not prepared. What is the govt support for our students.
Parents please first prepare the kids MENTALLY . Academic preparation can wait.
@KasthuriShankar Really thought provoking text which you have tweeted Mam, I wish you to do more because we need to educate rationally & morally the masses. I salute & respect your view.
