@NewUnicorn @business Actually half of Indian defense exports go to the USA. Part of the supply chain. They build the fuselage of the Apache helicopter for example. Their artillery ammunition is used by Ukraine. Part of the Israeli supply chain as well - drones and missile components

@losdoyers0509 @SagarPrasa72470 @PappuChoto @George90017 This is one rural village in a corner of India. A few hundred people have this bizarre local tradition. Actually unknown to the 1.5 billion other people in the subcontinent and its diaspora.

@HarisIqbal89 @raggedtag Actually no. While Pakistan joined the UN in 1947, India did not.
India, or the Indian Empire (colloquially called the Raj) was a founding member of the UN in 1945, a League of Nations member, and a signatory to the treaty of Versailles. Legally India is the continuing state

@Billyp444__ @SufiEri Guess the caste of this Indian ambassador. What about the woman in red? What job do you think she does?

@JamboClownfish @neoavatara 8 million USD. How far do you think that goes in India? For comparison, eligible married women receive a monthly cash benefit under the “Ladli Behna Yojana” scheme in Madhya Pradesh state. That program costs over $2.31 billion USD annually.

@razibkhan India paid the pensions of retired British ICS civil servants and Indian army officers back in the UK. They (and Pakistan) tried to keep skilled British personnel offering generous pay packages but the last left in 1955. Citizenship of a poor country and loss of privileges…

[JohnFrum @johnfrum1956]

@jeetsidhu_ @razibkhan Err… there was a “government of India” from 1858 onward.
Prior to this there was Mughal India (Subah-i-Hindustan) to whose Badshah or Emperor, Elizabeth 1st wrote diplomatic letters, and which issued a permit or firman under which the British East India company operated.

Elephants in the room: What Audrey Truschke couldn’t see on the 4,300-year-old Pashupati Seal, writes @DrAmitSarwal

The recent controversy over the Pashupati seal — that remarkable 4,300-year-old artifact from Mohenjo-daro depicting a seated figure in yogic posture, surrounded by animals native to the Indian subcontinent — has laid bare something uncomfortable about how a certain strand of Western academia approaches Indian civilizational history.

@DezzertFaux @omarali50 colonist would have to force himself on women around him. You don’t get almost 99% admixture in a population from rape.

[JohnFrum @johnfrum1956]

@DezzertFaux @omarali50 Many Indian and San parents would be quite pleased to have daughters marry the son of a prosperous farmer or merchant rather than the alcoholic neighbor’s boy. Women do preferentially mate with higher status men who can provide for them and future offspring. You assume a Dutch

@jo64yr @MatthewParrott India has had Boy Scouts since the inception. The founder was a British General who served in India. He named the girl’s version (Guides) after an Indian, now Pakistani, cavalry unit.
