Leaving aside the politics of @BJP4India and @INCIndia, the case of Meenakshi Natarajan represents a complete travesty of justice and fair play by the entire system, cutting across all pillars of democracy.
✅ The Returning Officer rejected her nomination in blatant violation of Section 33A of the Representation of the People Act, 1951, read with Section 210 & 223 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.
✅ On 11.06.2026, despite fervent pleas made by @DrAMSinghvi, @ECISVEEP sat on the judgment, and the Supreme Court declined to intervene even for a day till proper hearing. With no interim order by the Apex Court or the ECI, the Returning Officer declared the result!
✅ The matter was heard by the Supreme Court this forenoon. However, without examining the apparent illegality in the Returning Officer's order, the petition was dismissed in terms of the attached order on the ground that Article 329 bars judicial intervention after the declaration of results and that only an Election Petition can now be filed.
✅ While the fate of the case was effectively sealed when the Supreme Court declined to stay the declaration of the result, it was surprising to hear a legal luminary of Mr. Mukul Rohatgi's stature argue that the description of an entry in Form 26 overrides Section 33A of the Representation of the People Act, 1951!!
✅ Let me attempt to demonstrate why that contention is untenable. Form 26 was prescribed under Rule 4A of the Conduct of Election Rules, 1961, which themselves derive their authority from the Representation of the People Act, 1951. Yet it was implicitly argued that Entry 5(ii) of Form 26 overrides Section 33A of the parent statute!!
✅ Moreover, even after Section 33A and Rule 4A were introduced in August–September 2002, @SpokespersonECI, through its letter dated 10.09.2012, categorically clarified that Entry 5(ii) covers only those cases in which cognizance has been taken by a competent court. That condition was clearly not applicable in the case of @MNatarajanINC.
✅ Appearing virtually from London, Mr. Rohatgi argument, that a candidate's right to contest elections is merely a statutory right and not afundamental right, may hold relevance in normal circumstances. However, this was no ordinary case. By adopting a perverse interpretation of Section 33A, the Returning Officer descended to the nadir of partisan conduct and effectively denied the candidate the equal protection of the law guaranteed under Article 14 of the Constitution. In this case, Section 210 read with 223 of BNSS makes it conclusively fall beyond the purview of Entry 5(ii) of Form 26.
I would be happy to be corrected by anyone looking at facts and laws objectively. I am sure that @sardesairajdeep@_YogendraYadav@KapilSibal@adrspeaks@Mukul_Rohatgi@harishsalvee et al will appreciate that, by not intervening in time, #GyaneshKumar led ECI and the top court just let the case shift from Article 32 to Article 329 and the Returning Officer hide under it.
India's pitch to global investors is begining to look outdated.
Foreign investors are no longer interested in India's headline growth rate or fiscal deficit. They want productivity and innovation, besides external stability.
In that sense, the rupee's sharp depreciation reflects India's fading appeal as an investment destination.
So far, India has relied on the promise of high long-term growth and domestic political stability to win the trust of foreign investors and attract the dollars needed to keep the rupee stable. That formula no longer seems sufficient in a world shaped by rapid technological shifts and geopolitical risks.
India is caught in a vicious loop of weakening capital flows and a falling currency.
In short, countries are changing their priorities, and so are investors, leaving India in a state of panic.

@INCIndia A fire broke out in the building housing the Vyapam files.
A fire in the building containing the Rafale files.
A fire in the building holding the NEET files.
A fire in the building where 400 EVMs were stored.
Is this coincidence or a deliberate experiment?
कांग्रेस 2029 का चुनाव जीत रही है।
इसे लिखकर रख लीजिए।
अगर ऐसा नहीं हुआ तो मैं राजनीति समझने का दावा छोड़ दूँगा।
—
UP चुनाव हार जाए तो भी जीत रही है।
क्योंकि मैं चुनाव नहीं, राजनीति का चक्र देख रहा हूँ।
भारत की राजनीति एक Water Shed Moment पर खड़ी है।
पाप का घड़ा भर चुका है।
इतिहास करवट ले चुका है।
—
राहुल गांधी जो राजनीति कर रहे हैं, उसे सतही लोग कभी नहीं समझेंगे।
मैं उन्हें वर्षों से पढ़ रहा हूँ।
उन पर लिखते-लिखते कभी-कभी लगता है कि उनकी राजनीति को जीने लगा हूँ।

इतनी विरासत वाला व्यक्ति अगर चाहता तो सबसे आसान सत्ता की राजनीति करता।
लेकिन उसने सबसे कठिन रास्ता चुना।
सत्ता से दूरी का रास्ता।

2019 लोकसभा चुनाव के बाद मैंने Power Distance की थ्योरी पढ़ी थी।
उसका सार एक ही था—
जो व्यक्ति सत्ता से जितना दूर खड़ा होता है,
समाज उसे उतनी ही बड़ी नैतिक शक्ति दे देता है।
—
तभी राहुल गांधी का वह वाक्य समझ आया था—
"राजनीति एक ज़हर है।"
आज लगता है कि उस वाक्य का अर्थ पूरा देश समझने लगा है।
—
राहुल गांधी प्रधानमंत्री बनें या न बनें,
लेकिन वह इस दौर की नफरत की राजनीति को जड़ से चुनौती दे चुके हैं।
वह सिर्फ नेता नहीं हैं।
वह एक स्थायी प्रतिरोध हैं।

अर्जुन बहुत होते हैं।
कृष्ण सिर्फ एक होता है।
सत्ता से दूरी और शक्ति का संतुलन ही कृष्ण को कृष्ण बनाता है।
उसे सिर्फ एक नेता समझने की गलती मत कीजिए।
—
इसे सेव करके रख लीजिए।
2029 में सिर्फ सरकार नहीं बदलेगी।
भारत की राजनीति का नैतिक केंद्र बदल जाएगा।

Xi Jinping took charge of China in 2013.
Modi of India in 2014.
Maybe instead of comparing Modi with Nehru ji, it'll be a more fruitful exercise to compare his performance with that of Xi Jinping.

On R&D
On STEM
On Exports
On Employment

Maybe that'll help all of us much more in setting our national goals better.
@profAIPC Sir,🙏was there in your Space last night.The person V2 seemed to be a . His mannerism were like a Sanghi & he instantly started giving example of the BJP strategy.He successfully diverted the discussion & ate up precious time.We should remove sch moles quickly.
I am genuinely curious. Are these delusional, idiots or just shameless to pretend they don’t know how much they’re ridiculed in India & internationally?
