Indian elections especially the Lok sabha is wonder, a mystery, a phenomenon
There is a booth in Gujarat forest where there is only one voter, still all sarkari babus, BLO, paramilitary, close to 12 party workers go there just for one vote.
Only those who have worked on elections know the ground reality, rest can cry vote chori saaaaaar, democracy ded saar
Counterpoint. Every BJP voter is not also an andhabhakt or a fascist, but the opp never misses an opportunity to call them all sorts of pejoratives. This is how politics functions. Koi nuance nahin hoti.
For decades, India was measured by how far it was from the global frontier.
That is changing.
In sector after sector, the question is no longer whether India can catch up, but whether the world can keep up with the scale and speed at which India is building.
The worldโs fastest-growing major economy.
The largest road network.
The largest two-wheeler market.
The largest electric three-wheeler market.
The largest renewable-energy park.
The largest active IPO market by listings.
The fastest railway electrification drive.
And increasingly, global benchmarks are being set in India.
In 2026, India moving from the periphery of the global system to its centre.
Werenโt you just lecturing India over its FCRA legislation? You apparently want pluralism for Christians when they are a minority abroad, but majoritarian religious identity when Christians are the majority at home.
You seeing no issue doesnโt mean there is no issue.
This is how you ask about food choices: โHow did you like our food?โ โWhich ones did you like the most?โ โAre you a vegetarian or a non-vegetarian?โ or โDid you try non-veg as well?โ โWhat did you like the most in the non-veg options?โ
Thatโs how itโs done. Asking specifically about beef doesnโt sound as innocent as you think. And I know youโll deny it now, but Iโm very, very sure that you and many like you would cry buckets if reporters started asking Muslim actors randomly across India, โDid you try pork?โ
North Indian actress, Brahmin surname, goes to Kerala for a film promotion, and the reporter asks the most important and relevant question in the context:
โDid you like beef?โ
A little something different from my usual cosplay world โจ
This magical shoot is part of a new creative series exploring goddesses in a modern interpretation.
More photos are waiting on my Patreon ๐
And follow me for the next goddess ๐โจ
By 2039, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka together will have lower number of people living in extreme poverty than both North America and Europe according to World Bank.
India in the last 12 years has lifted some 250 million people out of extreme poverty. And another 200 million for 10 years before that. Huge achievement over successive governments. https://t.co/dEeLC2aCEm

This was my first cosplay photoshoot as an adult, I was very shy and had no idea how to hold the mandolin properly ๐ญ

Dimaagi Naxal is not a label for everyone who disagrees with the government. It refers to those who defend, justify, sympathize with armed violence against the state. Remember Hidma featuring in clean air protests in Delhi?
The PM named no one. Those rushing to identify themselves with the label are making the point themselves. Anarchists will be called out, label or no label.
Haha! This is like every gareeb who becomes successful saying, โMain street light ke neeche padhta tha,โ or every successful actor saying, โMain platform par sota tha.โ
Every year, lakhs of Indian students go to the US for higher education, with almost everyone hoping to find a job and settle there. Yet, most of them (81% as per current data) eventually have to return, mostly because of unemployment, visa issues, and immigration uncertainty, which has worsened many times over since Trump came back.
Each one of them could then claim that they came back after watching Swades and wanted to serve their country.
Btw, SRKโs character in Swades was a NASA scientist who left a lucrative job to return to India. Which job did Dipke left? He was unemployed. Aur Swades se inspired tha to gaya ki kyon tha? Not that he was going there to study engineering or medicine, which he could then put to use for his village; he did a masterโs in public relations instead.

This map doesnโt open on the Seven Kingdoms. It opens on a rising India. ๐ฎ๐ณ
Every bridge over a river, every tunnel through a mountain, every road to the last village feels like the opening credits of a nation building its future.
