@RShivshankar why does he appease, Do Muslims in Pakistan tell to Hindus same way, this kind of appeasement has created a situation in India, which it cannot battle. Why should he go to US to tell this? This mindset of Hindus have pushed them as minorities despite being majority.

@NalinisKitchen @Tukaram_IndIAS whether it is a fly or big insect, if he is doing what is right, why courts interfere in the attempt made by an officer to improve food safety. Why courts interfere? No one is Lord including courts.

@LokeshVirat18K There is no one reason, there are many.

[Mahesh Jethmalani @JethmalaniM]

For decades before 2014, the world practically mocked every Prime Minister's foreign trip as 'vanity' or 'photo-op'.

But Look at the last 24 months and try, honestly, to call this theatre.

In a world of tariffs, wars and broken supply chains, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is not collecting photographs. He is building leverage. Leverage over energy, minerals, missiles, markets, technology and of course free trade agreements.

The record speaks for itself.

May 2026, UAE: a brief stop, massive yield. Strategic petroleum collaboration with ADNOC, including potential storage of up to 30 million barrels in India. A long-term LPG track for homes and industry. A Strategic Defence Partnership framework covering manufacturing, training, maritime security and cyber. A ship-repair cluster at Vadinar. Around $5 billion in announced investment into Indian infrastructure and finance.

That is energy security when West Asia is on fire and sea lanes can become pressure points overnight.

February 2026, Israel: sixteen agreements. An agricultural research and innovation centre on Indian soil. Deeper defence and technology cooperation. Cyber. R&D. Cultural and digital ties. An FTA pushed onto a faster track.

That meant technology and capability coming back to Indian farmers, Indian industry and Indian defence.

June 2026, France: the Innovation Roadmap 2030. A series of agreements across innovation, defence, space and technology. An economic-security dialogue. A mechanism aimed at doubling trade.

July 2026, Indonesia: fourteen agreements and new initiatives. BrahMos cooperation—a serious step forward for Indian defence exports. Critical minerals and rare earths. Maritime security. Space. Steel. Healthcare.

And, crucially, an attempt to reduce Chinese dominance over the materials that will decide the future of batteries, electronics and weapons.

Australia: civil nuclear arrangements opening the door to uranium supply, a Maritime Security Collaboration Roadmap, defence agreements and a growing trade relationship. New Zealand added another maritime track.

These are not souvenirs from foreign visits.

They are part of the road map for a more secure, more resilient and more self-reliant Viksit Bharat. Atmanirbhar Bharat.

Today, The New York Times published an article headlined: “Modi Is Hedging Against Trump, One Deal at a Time.”

Its central point is simple: Modi has used each foreign visit to push India’s interests in security, trade and energy.

The India-US trade talks launched in February 2025 under President Trump were expected to produce haste and concession. Duties piled up, at one point heading towards 50 percent, including a penalty linked to Russian oil.

The expectation in some capitals was simple: India would fold.

India did not FOLD.

It refused a rushed, one-sided bargain. It held its ground on reciprocal access, domestic industry and agriculture.

It bought time.

And then used that time.

While talks dragged on, Delhi built alternatives: Gulf energy security, Israeli defence technology and agricultural innovation, French industrial and technology partnerships, Indonesian minerals and missile exports, Australian uranium and maritime cooperation.

That is how a continental economy stops negotiating from weakness.

Even after the February 2026 interim move towards an 18 percent reciprocal rate, Indian negotiators continued to hold out for terms that did not sacrifice agriculture or leave India permanently worse off than its competitors.

Even news media, whose first instinct is to criticise PM Modi, started to understand the value of his initiatives. Reuters described an increasingly confident India drawing strength from new partnerships. The Wall Street Journal wrote that New Delhi’s deal-making with middle powers had strengthened its hand with Washington.

That is the point.

You do not gain respect at a difficult negotiating table by talking about old friendships.

You gain it by showing that you have choices.

Beyond the international coverage of Modi and Trump, reporting on tariffs, tensions and the unfinished trade bargain, something else is happening:

India is no longer waiting for others to solve its problems.

It is securing supply chains, energy, minerals, defence partnerships and markets first and then negotiating.

That is why India can deal with America without surrendering its interests and deal with China without being intimidated.

The world does not hand out influence.

You have to build it.

And 2026 is a brutal year in which to do so.

Energy routes are under threat. Great powers are openly transactional. China remains ambitious. America is demanding.

In that environment, speeches do not keep the lights on. Statements do not fill strategic reserves.

What does?

A Prime Minister who treats every foreign visit as work.

Modi’s personal standing with world leaders is not branding. It has strategic value for India.

It gives India access, trust and room to manoeuvre.

And the growing confidence in India abroad is not charity. It comes from agreements signed, supply chains opened, capabilities built, markets expanded and promises delivered.

This is interest-first statecraft. Relentless.

History will not remember who mocked whose boarding pass.

It will ask a harder question:

When the world became unstable, who came home with oil, minerals, missiles, technology, markets and greater bargaining power?

That work is underway.

It is unfinished.

And it is exactly the work required to secure India’s interests and India’s rightful place in a world that respects countries which have options.

Over ₹187 Crore meant for the welfare of marginalized communities siphoned off, yet the Congress High Command protects the accused!

@RahulGandhi and @DKShivakumar must answer - why is a Minister named in the scam reinstated into the cabinet? We demand the immediate removal of B. Nagendra!
