@roadscholarz People like Jean Dreze want to be white saviours of India forever. They worry that when India's economic, entrepreneurial energies get unleashed they'll be out of business.
@viyasank@Puyangan5 On the Eelam issue, I feel it's more to do with India's confused policy on the matter (not TBs). They couldn't decide if they wanted to breakup SL (which is the only way I see Eelam people getting justice) or full throttle supporting SL without any pestering on Eelam Tamil rights

@Linku43745265@KreatelyMedia@grok Read up on his party's ties with Atiq Ahmed, Mukhtar Ansari, 2013 Muzaffarnagar riots, and hounding of IAS Durga Shakti Nagpal.
Every RW woman I know is career oriented, does actual pooja path, maintains composure, hygiene, and discipline, is a feminist, has good tier education, stable relationship with family/spouse/friends, and balances it all.
Second capital should be tripoint of Karnataka, TG and MH- poorest regions of all 3 richest states.
Lot of barren land available and since all 3 states are rich they can contribute for the development of their poorest regions along with GOI. No one language will dominate
@BellamSwathi So True!In Telugu movies,I have always seen Hindu traditions,culture,practises all beautifully represented. Ex: I recently watched Maa Inti Bangaram where Hindu customs are so respectfully depicted. I can give many more such Telugu movie exmpls, but I’ll run out of space.😀
PARANDUR AIRPORT ✈️
Why is it needed for Chennai?? A long read! Share Max.
Firstly people who’s lands are being acquired for #Parandur Airport are being given :
🔹 3-4 times the market value of the land
🔹Alternate housing is being given to them just next to the project site . Tenders are already out for it
🔹Govt jobs are being promised to the people
➡️Now political parties should push the govt to make sure these benefits reach the people which they truly deserve rather than telling to completely drop the project!
➡️Chennai badly needs a new airport! The existing one at Meenambakkam has planned max capacity of 35 MPA and it’s the smallest in terms of area among all airports. Nearby Bengaluru (70MPA) or Hyderabad (70MPA) have bigger capacities. Mumbai & Delhi are building 2nd airports too. Bengaluru is going for 3rd airport
➡️One can’t acquire land at the existing airport. Getting land from OTA is close to impossible and cost of acquiring land at nearby Gerugambakkam is costlier than that at Parandur.
➡️ Existing one has a river too flowing through it and its layout has always been an issue given its narrow access via GST Rd. Cargo terminal is small as well and we have been losing to Bengaluru/Hyderabad in terms of Logistics ecosystem
➡️Airport is just not about the rich people flying. Reports suggest that more Indians will fly in the next 10 yrs. Indian Airlines have 1,000+ planes or order and we need airports to cater to them! Parandur with a full fledged airport will supports Logistics+ Warehousing ecosystem, Hotels, MRO etc providing jobs for Lakhs!
➡️4-5 sites were studied for a 2nd airport for Chennai & Parandur was found the best considering various factors! It’s literally impossible for find 4,000+ acres around Chennai without a water body or agri land!
➡️ Lastly the water bodies there at Parandur are man made lakes! The govt has setup a commission & studied its impact! New artificial lakes will be built with diversion water channel to prevent flooding! Any infra project will have its consequences! Mettur Dam was built submerging several villages. Today it’s the lifeline to several TN’s District!!
Plz support the project! It’s need of the hour! TN and Chennai deserves a world class airport. Plz keep politics away 🙏🙏
Noticed one thing all the development, infra, indigenous technology related pages are run by Nationalist and RW only.
Leftist whole day keep singing one song of oppression, depression and suppression.
BJP has plenty of time in office (before 2029 LS elections) to conduct a "gain of function" experiment on how much hard-power it can exert. This will be important later down the line.
Front-foot pe khelo, don't give a fuck about log-kya-kahenge in the world, only Indians matter.
@Pradip_K_Varma Somehow this philosophy doesn't translate into competent urban municipal institutions that should be protecting lakes, trees, etc. Not to mention the many "mafias": river sand, iron-ore mining, etc. We need more leaders to prioritize protecting the environment.
You can slice and dice the population any which you want for petty electoral politics, but none of Dravidam, Tamil Desiyam, secularism crowd have the moral courage to counter this issue ideologically.
Anojan was baited - his Hindu God was mocked so he gave back on Facebook. His retort has been given the harshest consequence possible but the 1st provoker walks away scot free. How some Srilankan people react to Anojan's verdict is exactly how 50+ other countries would react too.
It does not matter what is your driving force - Tamil pride, Brahmin hate, Secularism love - when the chickens come home, your ideology will not save you. Open your eyes to reality atleast now. Hindutva is the only ideology that confronts this problem forthrightly.
Congress can get much done because it is a Status Quoist Party.
Old India was a backward, feudalist hellhole that had zilch political incentives for development. Its bureaucracy & judiciary were glove in hand with the ruling party after 7 decades of institutional infiltration.
The Congress’ mission was simply to continue the status quo, not progress India into a new avatar.
It sat pretty because save for the BJP, almost every other party depended on some combination of consolidating minorities & poaching whichever opportunistic Hindu caste wanted power, a formula still very much in action today. It is a battle between centripetal (the BJP) & centrifugal (Almost every other party) forces.
Plus the political equation of India is such that only the BJP + a handful of regional parties have any animus for things like infrastructure, investment, & development.
The opposition survives by placating caste lords & minority extremists while throwing cash at lullful Hindoos. That’s its only grand government policy.
Hardly a bhakt, but the spectacle of Salman Rushdie being highly concerned about Hindu nationalism in India being a threat when his eye was gouged out in upstate New York by a California born Muslim 33 years after the Iranian ayatollah declared a fatwah on him for writing a book… is quite something.
