[Prof. Shamika Ravi @ShamikaRavi]

MOSPI @GoIStats put out detailed methodology documents for the base year revision in February 2026 (6 months back). For @arvindsubraman to claim that the methodology has not been made available - and worse, for @sardesairajdeep to accept this canard gleefully on prime time tv - is the essence of the unfortunate pantomime that this GDP debate is!

[Himanta Biswa Sarma @himantabiswa]

Rahul Gandhi is NO champion of women’s rights. He is simply a Hindu baiter, using the cause of women’s empowerment as a convenient smokescreen to target and discredit Hindu Dharma.

Consider this: how many times has he spoken with the same outrage against patriarchal and medieval practices that persist under Sharia ? NEVER.

While Sharia is foundational to Islamic jurisprudence, Manusmriti has no comparable scriptural authority in Hindu Dharma. It is not even a universally binding code for Hindus.

Yet ask yourself: how many times does Rahul Gandhi attack the Manusmriti, and how many times does he attack Sharia with the same fervour?

The enduring strength of Hinduism lies in its unique ability to evolve, reform and adapt with time- as it has for millennia, and as it will for eternity.

Every Hindu must therefore ask: what is Rahul Gandhi’s real intent- championing women’s rights, or using them as a pretext to malign Hindu Dharma?

Cong rhetoric on women’s rights rings hollow when measured against its own record.

They betrayed our mothers and sisters by reversing the effect of the Shah Bano judgment.

It opposed the law against Triple Talaq. And just to cling to power in Karnataka, Rahul Gandhi ensured that not a single woman found a place in the State Cabinet.

So here is a simple challenge to Rahul Gandhi:

If women’s equality truly comes before politics, will he unequivocally support a Uniform Civil Code that guarantees equal rights irrespective of religion?

Or will his idea of “women’s rights” continue to begin and end with attacking Hinduism?

How much of India's infrastructure was built after 2014?

• 100% of Dedicated Freight Corridors
• 98% of Solar Capacity
• 85% of the Expressway Network
• 79% of Tap Water Access
• 75% of Metro Rail
• 71% of Port Capacity
• 69% of Railway Electrification
• 60% of 4-Lane National Highways

Infrastructure is built over decades.
But some decades build more than others.

NY times on the Indian protest vs the one in "allied ally" Pakistan

[Prof. Krishnamurthy V Subramanian @SubramanianKri]

A few questions for Ms. @priyankagandhi, @INCIndia & @RahulGandhi:

1. As an IITian, I ask - what scientific or academic expertise qualifies you, Ms. @priyankagandhi, to mock the research of the Director of @iitmadras, one of India's foremost scientific institutions?

2. As a research scholar, I find Prof. V. Kamakoti's credentials speak for themselves. What are yours to pass judgment on his scholarship (other than being born into a political dynasty)?

3. Have you actually read Prof. Kamakoti's work before caricaturing him? If so, which part of his research do you disagree with, and on what evidence?

4. Since when did the cultural or religious origin of a scientific hypothesis become grounds for ridicule? Aspirin traces its origins to willow bark, artemisinin emerged from traditional Chinese medicine, and many modern drugs began as traditional remedies. Science tests hypotheses... it doesn't mock them because of where they originate.

5. Is ridiculing distinguished scholars @INCIndia's idea of promoting Viksit Bharat as envisioned by PM @narendramodi?

6. Why does @INCIndia so often reserve its derision for ideas associated with Hindu traditions? Would the same standard of mockery be applied to beliefs rooted in any other faith?

India's scientists and scholars deserve better than ridicule. They deserve evidence-based debate.

PoJK woman in tears appeals to United Nations and International Media to raise voice against Pakistani brutality after dozens of innocent civilians were killed in Pakistan Occupied Jammu & Kashmir (PoJK).

[Sridhar Vembu @svembu]

Modi-ji appoints Nandan Nilekani, who contested the 2014 elections as a Congress Party candidate, because the government respects his experience leading Infosys and Aadhaar and so many other projects.

Priyanka-ji attacks IIT Madras Director Prof Kamakoti, under whose leadership IIT Madras has emerged as the top tech institution in India and has spawned a vibrant startup ecosystem.

One of them is a classy leader.

365 days later, the craters are still visible and the silence in their ranks is deafening. 🇮🇳

One year ago, we didn’t just cross a line - we erased it.

While IAF jets tore through the skyline and missile batteries locked onto destiny, Operation Sindoor didn't just dismantle terror HQs; it dismantled an entire ecosystem of cowardice.

They spent months scavenging for bricks to rebuild their command centers. We spent that time showing the world what a New India looks like when the gloves come off.

History wasn't just written-it was forged in fire.

Jai Hind! 🇮🇳🚩

Congrats to India! Anniversary of Operation Sindoor next week where India showed the results of their defense reforms that contributed to their military dominance of the mostly Chinese equipped Pakistan military.

[Aakash Gupta @aakashgupta]

The West poured $50 billion into fast breeder nuclear reactors and abandoned every single one. India poured $900 million and just achieved criticality on the first commercially viable one outside Russia.

The US spent $15 billion. Gave up. Japan spent $12 billion. Their Monju prototype had one sodium fire in 1995 and never recovered. The UK spent $8 billion. Germany spent $6 billion. France, Italy, all walked away. Six of the richest nations on Earth concluded this technology was too hard and too expensive to pursue.

India started building in 2004 with an initial budget of $420 million. Twenty-two years, a dozen missed deadlines, and a cost doubling later, the Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam just sustained a controlled fission chain reaction. The reactor is now alive.

The reason India never quit is a constraint most people have never thought about. India has only 1-2% of the world's uranium reserves. For a country of 1.4 billion people trying to build energy independence, that's a death sentence if you're running conventional nuclear.

But India has 25% of the world's thorium. The single largest national reserve on Earth.

The problem: you can't just burn thorium the way you burn uranium. A physicist named Homi Bhabha designed a three-stage nuclear program in the 1950s specifically to solve this. Stage 1: burn natural uranium in heavy water reactors, collect plutonium as a byproduct. Stage 2: feed that plutonium into fast breeder reactors, where it breeds MORE plutonium AND converts thorium into fissile uranium-233. Stage 3: burn thorium directly at scale.

India just entered Stage 2. Seventy years after Bhabha drew it up on paper.

The math on the thorium endgame is wild. At current energy consumption rates, India's thorium reserves could power the country for over 700 years. Most nuclear nations are playing a uranium game with maybe 80-100 years of runway. India is playing a completely different game with a 7x longer fuel supply.

The West quit because uranium stayed cheap and sodium coolant is terrifying. It catches fire on contact with air. It explodes on contact with water. Russia's BN-600 had 27 sodium leaks and 14 sodium fires between 1980 and 1997. And Russia kept going anyway because Russia doesn't quit nuclear projects. India watched all of that and kept going too.

When you have 1% of the uranium but 25% of the thorium, the engineering difficulty stops being a reason to quit. It becomes the price of admission to a 700-year energy supply that nobody else can access.

[bhatnaturally  🇮🇳 @bhatnaturally]

Outstanding article. Please read it every word. Long read that's totally worth it. Some gems [am quoting]"

'For the better part of seven decades, the dominant cultural apparatus of Indian cinema — the studios, the critics, the awards circuits, the international film festival pipeline, the English-language media that shaped elite opinion — operated on an unstated but rigorously enforced consensus: Hindu suffering is not a suitable subject for full emotional treatment in mainstream cinema.'

‘Haider is also the purest example of how Bollywood’s pre‑2014 Overton window handled the Kashmir story: one community’s suffering is visible and even romanticized; another’s is almost entirely absent.’

'A Hindu community with full possession of its historical memory is a different political animal from a Hindu community whose wounds have been kept safely abstract.'

‘within a significant and influential section of India's left-liberal ecosystem, and within the international human rights infrastructure that takes its cues from that ecosystem, Hindu suffering is not treated as suffering that demands the same moral urgency as the suffering of other communities.’

'.. a civilization that refuses to recognize patterns of aggression against it, that responds to each wave of violence as though it were unprecedented and aberrant rather than part of a systemic project, that cannot organize politically around its own survival because its internal divisions are too profound — that civilization will be repeatedly and increasingly overwhelmed.'

'The net effect is to tell Hindus: You may be good victims (quiet, abstract, in statistics), but the moment you try to narrate your suffering in your own voice, you are extremists.'

'From a humanist standpoint, the right question is: How can any honest ethical system demand that a civilization lie about its own wounds, or speak of them only in self‑denigrating tones, while treating others’ trauma as sacrosanct?”
