Very instructive to listen to Mr. Seshan on the independence of the Election Commission before him. Institutions take time to build. Roots grow slowly.

Honestly, we in India need to grow up. Pres. Trump can meet whoever he wishes to. We need to work around that. Whining doesn't suit the 4th largest economy in the world. US needs Pakistan. So be it. We have needed Russia too.

Holding a treaty in abeyance is not the same as stoppage of water for 250 million people. Its just fiction.
Meanwhile, having training facilities for Mine laying, advanced weapons training etc in Muridke and Bahawalpur is alas not fiction.
Is this difficult to understand?
@amitabhmattoo The Integrated Defence Staff made an excellent choice. Your erudition and insights will be enhanced at Wellington even as IDS will debate new power equations and negotiate narrow strategic spaces. A perfect journey from Melbourne to Wellington. Congratulations!
@francescam63@praveenswami@najamsethi@PravinSawhney Had great respect for the man. Still believe his political analysis re Pakistan is excellent. But, his Indo-Pak analysis is so flawed I wonder if he has a doppelganger around he can blame it on. The man believes in Pahalgam being a false flag. Hate to say this but has lost it.
@RealCynicalFox India and the US are "natural" partners.
We are not camp followers or a treaty Ally.
Our values match, our world view broadly aligns. This space needs to expand.
But, we will not follow blindly every geopolitical compulsion of the US. We evaluate and act per our compulsions.

Ergo 1975. Sujata cinema hall. Ranchi, Bihar.

Do speak to @arvindkumar_ias who is a very keen supporter of heritage in Hyderabad apart from being the boss of urban bodies there. Reach out to him. Explain as only you can what is going wrong. Arvind usually pulls out a miracle a day in these matters.
@Razarumi Hsin Kuang reminds me of Hsin Long, a similar Chinese restaurant in Patna. Same cuisine. The American Chopsuey was crispy noodles. I bet the Chinese never realized what we in the subcontinent ate that passed off as Chinese. BTW, Hsin Kuang means crazy hot or crazy pungent.
