“Reality is too heavy for people, so they rent illusion and call it God”
- Friedrich Nieztzhe
Friedrich Nietzsche examined morality, nihilism, religion, suffering, power, individuality, and the challenge of establishing new values when traditional beliefs lose their authority. In works such as Beyond Good and Evil, On the Genealogy of Morality, and Thus Spoke Zarathustra, he investigated the origins of moral principles, questioning whether ideas of goodness always arise from strength or can instead emerge from fear, resentment, and societal influence. His philosophy urged individuals to critically evaluate their beliefs rather than accept them simply because they have been passed down through generations.
Nietzsche’s goal was not simply to dismantle established beliefs, but to encourage people to develop the strength to live independently of them. He warned that the collapse of traditional sources of meaning could lead to nihilism, leaving individuals convinced that life held no inherent value. Through his concept of self-overcoming, he proposed a different approach: continually challenge yourself, develop your own values, and embrace existence despite its pain and uncertainty. To Nietzsche, becoming who you are meant to be was not about uncovering a predetermined identity, but possessing the courage to shape one through your own choices and transformation.
The brutal murder of medical student Sawariya Basanth in Uzbekistan is absolutely shocking. My deepest condolences to her grieving family.
The government must ensure swift justice. This cannot be dismissed as just another crime.
The authorities must listen to her family. They have stated that she faced repeated physical violence for resisting forced religious conversion by her classmate. The same person later murdered her.
For too long, Congress and CPM have denied the issue of forced religious conversions to protect their vote banks. In appeasement politics, they’re Randalla Onnanu.
Controlled by Jamaat-e-Islami and the Muslim League, the Congress will continue to remain in denial.
But India and Keralam cannot afford denial.
We need an open discussion about this issue. We must create awareness and teach our youth to recognise and protect themselves from such tragedies.

A Mumbai govt hospital advised a pregnant woman's family to consider transferring her elsewhere, as pre-delivery fetal assessment indicates her newborn will likely require NICU care, and all of their NICU beds are currently occupied.
The woman's husband called Shiv Sena (Shinde) corporator Ramesh Mhatre, who arrived with his goons and assaulted doctors and nurses.
If you understand how hospitals work, you'll know a bed not being available is not the doctor's fault. You can't ask another critical newborn to vacate a bed, nor can you provide NICU care on the floor, nor can you "arrange bed from some other dept" because a NICU bed isn't just a bed, it comes with ventilators, monitors, oxygen, infusion pumps, and other life-support equipment.
So the blame, if any, goes on the govt. But doctors are the easiest targets, and assaulting them earns politicians easy political mileage.
I know some will say, "Doctors are evil and deserve it," and that's fine. I'm not seeking sympathy. This post is for parents and medical aspirants. Unless your parents own a hospital, you choose govt jobs with better working conditions like the Army, paramilitary, or Railways, plan to pursue USMLE (or an equivalent pathway), or intend to move to private practice where you can arrange your own security, think carefully before choosing this profession.
Most govt hospitals are hellholes. You can serve patients well for decades and still end up being abused or assaulted by a tenth-pass corporator, a publicity-hungry politician chasing cameras, or patient relatives who think every death could have been prevented if only the doctor had "tried harder."

Doctors working within a hospital do not determine:
• The number of NICU or ICU beds available.
• The expansion of infrastructure, including ventilators, monitors, or other critical resources.
These are administrative and policy-level decisions.
Adverse outcomes demand focus on systemic failures — like understaffing, overcrowding, and resource shortages.
Real solutions strengthen the healthcare system — not scapegoat the doctor.

One detail from this Iran war should make every serious state sit up: credible reporting says Israeli leaders were shown an image of Khamenei’s body after it was recovered by Mossad agents - and that Israel had visibility on his fate faster than Iran could even confirm the death of it's supreme leader and shape the narrative. That’s not “tech”. That’s HUMINT + penetration.
Satellites don’t tell you who is in which room at what time. Signals don’t always survive encryption and discipline. What wins you wars and prevents surprises is human access so-urces, moles, defectors, recruited assets - the messy, thankless work of being inside the enemy’s bloodstream.
Israel has no luxury of being lazy at intelligence. It sits in a hostile neighbourhood with actors who openly want it erased. So it builds networks that aren’t “near the border.” They’re near the decision-makers. That’s what survival looks like when geography is unforgiving.
Now bring that lens to India. When you live next to Pakistan’s terror ecosystem and a Bangladesh theatre that keeps throwing up radical modules, you don’t get to be sentimental about “soft power” as a substitute for hard intelligence. You need early warning, deep penetration, counter-infiltration, and ruthless disruption - before the plot becomes a headline.
And this is exactly where the armchair moralists fail India. They love questioning operations after the fact. They hate the boring investments before the fact: intel budgets, source protection, language capability, field tradecraft, inter-agency fusion, and the political spine to back covert work without leaking it for TRPs.
Pop culture and superhit movies like Dhurandhar tells the story really well but makes it look stylish - one hero, one mission, one punchline. Real HUMINT though is the opposite: years of patience, ugly risks, zero credit, and often no medal because the best outcome is “nothing happened.”
This is not about chest-thumping. This is about statecraft. The world is moving into an age where wars are decided by who sees first, knows first, and shapes first. Israel gets that. India must get that - permanently. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi and our intelligence apparatus, NEW INDIA definitely gets it.
Because 'terrorist harbouring neighbours' don’t send calendar invites before they strike. They send handlers, money, propaganda, and sleepers. The only answer is being inside that machinery early enough to break it.
If you want deterrence, stop thinking intelligence is an accessory. It’s the foundation.
🚨 India’s NSA Ajit Doval delivers a POWERFUL message: “We were a very ADVANCED CIVILIZATION.”
“We never broke anyone’s temples. We did NOT ATTACK foreigners even when the world was weak.”
“We FAILED to understand threats to our SECURITY — and HISTORY taught us a lesson.”
