MLC elections in 28 seats across 4 big states - Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka.
Elections held using ballot papers.
Guess how many seats Congress won? 🧐
The Congress party’s blatant attempts to sabotage India’s national security for cheap political mileage are nothing short of dangerous. Pawan Khera and the Congress ecosystem are masquerading vital strategic defense as "repression," directly playing into the hands of external adversaries. Let’s look at the harsh reality: China is constructing a massive 60,000 MW Medog Dam right on our doorstep. This gives Beijing complete control over the water flow, turning the river into a potential geopolitical weapon. They could open the floodgates at any given moment, creating an engineered catastrophe capable of sweeping entire regions into the Bay of Bengal.
The Siang Project is not a choice; it is India’s non-negotiable strategic shield and an absolute necessity for regional survival. By funding, instigating, and glorifying these protests, Congress is actively trying to strip away our defense mechanisms. Are you standing with India's sovereignty, or are you acting as the PR machinery for foreign interests? Real patriotism means protecting our borders and our citizens from existential threats, not kneeling to blackmail. We will not compromise on national security. India will build its defenses, secure its borders, and protect its people, whether the Congress party likes it or not.
Dear Indian origin/American leaders in the US,
@satyanadella, @sundarpichai, @ArvindKrishna, @nikesharora, @nealmohan, @MicronCEO, @JayZscaler, @kunalb11, @RamaswmySridhar, @AravSrinivas, @ThomasOrTK, @LeenaNairHR, @snarayen, @VivekGRamaswamy, @RepBera, @CongressmanRaja, @RepSuhas@Kash_Patel
It is high time you all speak up against the despicable, dangerous racism and hate against Indians on American social media. And do something about it as Tech CEOs and political leaders.
The despicable, dehumanizing hate against Indians is being spread everywhere - Facebook, Instagram, X, Youtube, Reddit, Telegram...
Staying silent and not doing anything anymore - as more young people in the US are radicalized to hate Indians using social media - may one day lead to our own family and friends having to face such racist, radicalized, violent, supremacists.
American social media platforms are being used by adversarial actors to specifically target Indians in the US.
They are seeding racism and hate using violent words and dehumanizing imagery, programming many Americans to become racist and hateful - specifically against Indians.
May be it is being done to drive out Indians, attack India for geopolitics, or try erode India-US ties. But it is real, relentless and extreme form of communist hate that's being seeded.
There's no reason why, you all as stalwarts of silicon valley and politics can't get together, talk about this crisis, and take action to end ALL hate and racism on social media.
It shouldn't be that difficult in the age of AI to filter out, block racist and hate filled comments against any community, isn't it.
How come this is not being proposed and implemented across SV companies? And why isn't any of you speaking out against this increasing online hate and racism against Indian Americans and Indians?
Among all mentioned above, till now only @CongressmanRaja has talked about the topic of online hate and the recent attempted mass shooting.
Please start talking among yourselves, even if not publicly, and kindly take some action 🙏
Elon, you've officially run out of arguments. Now every Indian who disagrees with you is "Ambani's shill."
Nobody said Starlink is too strong. Nobody's scared of your competition. India's problem is you. A Pentagon contractor building Trump's Golden Dome wants to run internet over Indian soil, and he throws a tantrum every time someone asks who holds the off switch.
Ambani's de facto monopoly?
You SIGNED A DEAL with that monopoly in March 2025 to sell Starlink in India. You didn't have a problem with Ambani when he was your reseller.
You only discovered his monopoly when Jio announced its own satellites.
And let's talk about hypocrisy.
Tesla's biggest factory is in Shanghai. Starlink is banned in China. Have you ever called Xi Jinping a monopolist?
Called Chinese critics shills? Written a sarcastic letter to Prime Minister Xi?
No.
Because Beijing would shut your factory by Monday. India can't, so India gets the insults.
now the math your own fans keep posting starlink could add 100–200 million Indian homes. Starlink is approved for 600 Gbps over India. Split across 100 million homes, that's 6 kilobits per second each. Your revolution is slower than a 1998 dial-up modem. 🤡
If it's too expensive, no one will buy it.
Your own India website showed ₹8,600 a month. A Jio plan costs ₹349. Indians already ran the numbers.
Five days of meltdown. Crime against India. Prime Minister Ambani. collages. And now shills.
The richest man on earth, crying on his own app because a sovereign country wants a security check.
Sit down, elon. Finish the paperwork. India isn't a tesla shareholder you can bully on X.
Elon Musk's recent thread calling Ambani as PM looks written by a "South Asian", and definitely not like his usual posting style.
Excessive politeness, explanatory style with "so", starting a para with "Also". They are all a give away. Just read them for yourself.
So it seems like a coordinated operation run by the same DS which attacks India's companies and capitalists, but now it's using Elon to make it political.
I am at a loss to understand why Elon is getting influenced this way and letting himself be used to generate animosity with 1.4 billion people.
Especially at a time when his companies are gaining acceptance and good traction in India. If he thinks half the Indians may support him due to politics, he's mistaken.
For the small number of Indians getting carried away politically, and taking side with these foreigners interfering in India's sovereignty:
Do understand Starlink is not being unjustifiably stopped. They are in the same regulatory approval status as India's Jio and Airtel.
They have already got required licenses, setup required infra on the ground, and the distributorship to start operations once the final approval is given. Which is also expected soon along with Jio and Airtel.
But Elon seems to be very frustrated that Starlink wasn't approved two years ago when he clearly could have monopolized Satellite internet in India. Now, with Jio and Airtel competing in parallel for satellite net, it is super tough for Starlink.
So, as an Indian, it is important to understand while getting access to newer tech shouldn't be banned by GoI like pre-1990s India, it is also important to have a choice, competition, and clarity on security implications.
The politicians who have suddenly done a 180 degree in taking sides with Elon are the same who were, two years ago, questioning India even considering allowing Starlink claiming "Modi sold out to Elon."
We need to understand these sudden attacks on PM and India's companies are being done in tandem with other, on the ground, operations in India to destabilize and delegitimize the govt - which too has been completely organized via American social media.
The same Elon talking about how India will benefit with Starlink, when it is actually being considered for approval, doesn't say a word about how China - which bans most American companies in strategic sectors and never even considered Starlink - will benefit from it.
From this alone you can understand the agenda. India has enough services, network, the NDRF, and the Army, who can setup communication anywhere, to save our men women and children during a disaster.
Beware of such white savior syndrome. Need to remind ourselves, East India Company came in saying "Indians will benefit from western trade."
Watching Elon Musk this week has been a fascinating character study in the saviour complex of Western tech billionaires.
They arrive in your country selling you the future. Welcome them, and you’re a country that wants progress. Make them wait, and suddenly your people are victims who need rescuing from their own institutions by the chosen one.
It’s a pattern. When Thai rescuers didn’t use the mini-submarine Musk sent for the trapped boys, and diver Vernon Unsworth called the idea impractical, Musk attacked him as the “pedo guy.”
When Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered X to comply with its rulings, Musk called the judge a “dictator.”
The script rarely changes. Only the country does.
The colonial mindset isn’t always about wanting to rule a country. Sometimes it’s the assumption that you arrive as its saviour, and if the country doesn’t immediately recognise you as one, something must be wrong with the country.
It's not surprising to see our colonial sepoy @rahulgandhi supporting @elonmusk in undermining our business ventures. After all, in ensuring the integrity of our country be it economic or territorial, the Nehru-Gandhi family has been acting against India for over 4 generations. From giving away PoK and Akshai Chin to distributing 2g spectrum license at decade old rates, the stories of anti-Indian activities of Nehru-Gandhi family are of course many
did my https://t.co/zANOEvvHvH at IIT Bombay and my PhD at IIT Delhi. I've been a professor for 14 years now. In 22 years of watching the IIT/IIIT system closely, I have never once witnessed a teacher discriminate against a student on the basis of caste.
During my https://t.co/zANOEvvHvH, most of us had no idea what caste our batchmates belonged to. Many of my close friends were SC/ST. We never discussed it. It never entered any conversation or decision. Not once. Our exposure to the humanities department was limited, though — the term "Brahmanical patriarchy" didn't even exist back then.
As a teacher, I don't ask a student's name before solving their doubt. Often I don't know their name at all — some of my classes have 300+ students. We treat them all the same. So does every colleague I know. So did every professor who taught me.
Social media has now filled vulnerable students' heads with a lot of manufactured grievance about caste discrimination that, in my experience, doesn't exist.
CRPF personnel has completely exposed the entire CJP protest.
He is currently deployed at Jantar Mantar, and every single word he said is absolutely accurate and powerful.
I was deeply moved by what he said, and I believe every Indian should listen to him and understand his message.

For decades, UP carried the baggage of being called a BIMARU state. Whenever people spoke about poor law and order, weak infra, migration, broken roads, delayed projects, or lack of investment, UP was usually part of that conversation.
Today, whether one supports Yogi Adityanath or not, the difference between pre-2017 and post-2017 Uttar Pradesh is difficult to deny.
The state that once struggled with connectivity is now covered with expressways. Places that felt disconnected from the rest of the country are now linked through highways, airports, freight corridors, and industrial projects. Cities that were known mainly for their problems are now competing for investments, tourism, and business opportunities.
The biggest change, however, isn't concrete, asphalt, or glass buildings. It's perception.
Investors who once avoided UP now see opportunity. Tourists who never considered visiting are planning trips. Religious destinations that were neglected for decades have become global attractions. Young people who once saw migration as the only option are beginning to see opportunities closer to home.
What makes the transformation noteworthy is that it isn't limited to Lucknow or Noida. The focus has also reached regions like Purvanchal and Bundelkhand, areas that were historically left behind in the development conversation.
No state is perfect. UP still has challenges. Every large state does. But there is a reason why discussions about governance, infrastructure, investment, and administrative execution increasingly use Uttar Pradesh as an example.
A state once mocked as a symbol of India's problems is now increasingly being discussed as part of India's solution. That's a turnaround few would have predicted a decade ago.
