Happy Independence day.
We get independent not just because of a single person or a single political party or a single idea.
We got independence because countless patriots, some known and most unknown, made sacrifice of all kinds.
One such story is in the pic. 1/n

We never "had" Iran, nor are we "losing" it. Iran isnt a prize to be had/lost - it unilaterally renegotiated oil contracts when it suited.

Geopolitical quid pro quo remain, always.

We stretched fully on apartheid SA, President Mandela wagged a finger at our J&K policy. So....

@alpha_defense Sources say India will receive 6 jet engines in GE in April 2026 and 3 jet engines a month from May 2026 as India has given access to 🇺🇲 the know-how sourced from PL-15 missile found intact during Op Sindoor.

@alpha_defense L&T, Solar Industries, TASL can become the backbone of Indian MIC.
The only thing which is stopping them is very large orders from MoD.

@AustinAJoseph76 @shiv_cybersurg @kartachar 🇨🇳 will fear us when 🇮🇳 inducts 1.5 subs/yr (SSN/SSBN/SSK) for the next 2-3 decades.
10bn$ can do that if 💵 in the supply chain of 190MW reactors, Desi AIPs, torpedoes etc.
Nobody takes an importing military seriously and you shouldn't do that.

@AustinAJoseph76 @shiv_cybersurg @kartachar This is completely misplaced on your part. No country will certify any critical tech that will make us less dependent on them.
We have to do it for ourselves. Order 6-12 extra submarines of Kalvari type from MDL.
It will join IN faster than TMKS submarines.

@Schandillia @Schandillia
Iran was doing this to civilian ships with Indian crew in international waters just a month back. But these hypocrites expect support from us.

[New era @_new__era]

@sushantsareen 🇵🇰 targeted civilians and infra but our ADs worked extremely well.
The very reason for Op Sindoor was targeting Hindus by asking religion.
Are you out of your mind?
Have some shame @sushantsareen before you give clean chit to 🇵🇰

[New era @_new__era]

@shiv_cybersurg Saturate ADs through inexpensive drones+precision strike+standoff weapons; all these simultaneously will be better.

The destruction of Keshavdev Rai Temple by Aurangzeb happened during the same month that you are quoting.

Would you condemn that destruction and the motive behind?

[New era @_new__era]

@sneheshphilip But your own media community (of which you are an integral part) is not so wise and still believes in live reporting. When are you going to name them? Or is it just limited to playing safe by simply dropping a generic post on X?
Not hoping to receive any reply @sneheshphilip

@daeroplate_v2 While entire West Asia+EU+Israel+ China are focussed on Iran and 🇵🇰 is engaged in confrontation with 🇦🇫, we could use this opportunity to finish the unfinished job of May 2025.
If we do not use this moment then the window may be available only in Nov/Dec 2026 only.

[New era @_new__era]

@daeroplate_v2 We should use our so called "trade deal" to buy few more C-17/C-5 giving excuse like we need to evacuate our citizens at a faster rate.

[New era @_new__era]

@daeroplate_v2 There is no civilian leadership in Iran. LoL.

[New era @_new__era]

@daeroplate_v2 Usual MEA statements like we are monitoring the evolving situation in West Asia. LoL

[New era @_new__era]

@Pivot2Centre No they are not "Indian" jet. It can be considered "Indian" only when we have design level IP similar to Tejas.
