हिंदुओं को गुरुद्वारा जाने की चुल्ल मची रहती है, इसलिए ये लोग मारते हैं। वीर पुरुष हैं, निहंग हैं, निहत्थों पर वीरता ऐसे ही निकलती है। मज़ार और गुरुद्वारा जाना ही क्यों है? तुम्हारे मंदिर कम हो गए हैं? वो नहीं मानते तुम्हें अपना, तुम क्यों चिपकना चाहते हो? उनका समाज भी कभी इस पर सामूहिक रूप से नहीं बोलता।

उनके लिए तुम बिहारी, भैये और कुत्ते-सूअर जैसे हो। नस्लभेद, घटिया जातिवाद और क्षेत्रवाद का भौंडा प्रदर्शन हो रहा है।

Forget Udhayanidhi for a second.
Did even one Hindu MLA stand up and object? Not one?

Nearly 200 Hindu legislators sat there listening to ‘eradication of Sanatan’ speeches in silence. Who exactly are they so afraid of losing power, losing votes, or losing relevance?

Sanatan has survived invaders, empires and massacres. But silence from its own people is a far greater betrayal than open hostility.

No BGT Test match in Kolkata or Mumbai

Eden Gardens gets an ODI against the mighty Zimbabwe 👌

[Aaditya Narayan @AadityaN_28]

Eden Gardens hasn't hosted Australia since 2001. Wankhede hasn't hosted Australia since 2004. And it will be at least 2031 until the might be able to. It's an absolute joke how we treat our iconic Test venues.

Mumbai/Delhi Police should act against these people who are trying to spread hate and inciting violence against innocent Israeli tourists in India. India is the only country in the world without any antisemitism. @MumbaiPolice @DelhiPolice @IsraelinIndia

Hindus & Sikhs in Punjab don’t just coexist - they share families. Look at Abhishek Sharma’s sister marrying a Sikh. Only a tiny fringe talks Khalistan; the rest live in harmony.

Air India crash investigation has been buried

India only organised one media interaction on the crash and did not take any question from the media

The very concept of accountability doesn’t exist in modern India

Around 250 people were killed and yet there is no conclusion

G2 is a lesson for India. Here is China which has quietly built its strength and is now taking on the US which it has by its unmentionables. But the Chinese still say they are a developing country; and here are we who are at best a middle power pretending to be a super-power without the necessary wherewithal or the economic and military heft to be a great power, forget being a super power. By the way, why do we want to become a super-power? What is our grand strategy if we were to become a super-power? What do we propose to do with it? We cant exercise the power we have and we pretend to being a superpower?
Get real. Keep quiet. Stop boasting. Build the economy and military strength. Stop asking for technology - no one will give it to you. You can either buy outdated tech, or build your own tech or steal it. It wont come on a platter which our babus and netas hanker and negotiate for. Reform the economy. Reform governance. Demolish the bureaucratic stranglehold. Or get left behind.

[Anuradha Tiwari @talk2anuradha]

Dear @nitin_gadkari

We need a public website that shows:

> Which contractor built road
> Which babu approved it
> Total cost & ministers involved
> Firm responsible for maintenance

Contractors are becoming billionaires while people die on roads

Bring real accountability now!

We’re watching more ads than cricket.

Every inch of the screen is sold. Indian broadcasters have turned the game into a money-printing circus with zero respect for viewers, just pure greed.

India should not be buying oil from Russia. But China, an adversary and the number one buyer of Russian and Iranian oil, got a 90-day tariff pause. Don’t give China a pass and burn a relationship with a strong ally like India.

🏏 25 days. 5 battles. Scores tied 2-2.

This isn’t just a game — it’s Test Cricket in all its timeless glory.

A series for the ages. Hats off to IND & ENG for the drama, grit, and greatness.

Two years ago, Mohamed Muizzu ran on a platform kicking out Indian from the Maldives. This week, PM Modi becomes the first foreign leader to be received in the Maldives on a state visit. Probing that the region has a long memory but gets triggered by a short fuse. Delhi chose to play the long game.

Muizzu’s campaign was anything but friendly toward India. “Public commentators” had already cremated & performed the last rites of India’s Maldives policy in op-eds.

Our response was quiet & understated: No knee-jerk measures, no reactivity, absolute discipline & running a tight ship. Modi in his classic style was the first world leader to congratulate Muizzu.

India’s cards were straightforward - India was indispensable- no matter what China or Pakistan or whoever else promised. Malé in all probability tried but soon realised no one could match what India brings to the table especially when things go wrong
• cyclone
• pandemic
• piracy
• food shortage
India is the one that shows up first, stays consistent, supports sustainably & doesn’t bear grudges.

I’ll put the early aberration down to Muizzu & his colleagues lack of government experience - because he sure tried changing the fundamentals but geography, culture, connectivity meant there was little he could do.

India as a rule avoids what China and the US do: treating a smaller neighbour like a problematic client: to be bullied, arm-twisted & frequently humiliated. No political pressure campaigns, just strategic bandwidth, quiet confidence, and an open hand of friendship.

The result: a recalibrated relationship, on India’s terms, without the Maldives being humiliated. This isn’t just a story of diplomatic success. It’s a case study in strategic restraint, quiet leverage, and the compounded advantages of geography and memory.

We often see Modi the strongman. But we often miss the impact of Modi’s strategic calculation and restraint aka statesmanship.

If Donald Trump keeps repeating the trade deal got India Pakistan to agree to a ceasefire then how is it that India-US don’t have a trade deal yet?
Is that why POTUS keeps repeating it to build pressure on India?
Since even America knows there’s no trade deal with Pakistan there’s only a terror deal because that’s the only thing Pakistan excels in.
