@Brahamvakya @IndiaToday @MEAIndia There was a good window to do this. Sadly we succumbed. Mao had a better understanding of China’s territorial predicaments than our leaders in the first decade.

[Monica Verma @TrulyMonica]

China is turning the heat on Arunachal, calling it Zangnan (South Tibet), renaming places and all sorts of antics. Just a few days ago, an Indian news network @IndiaToday was doing positive coverage of development in Tibet by CCP with total impunity.

What the hell boss @MEAIndia

[Monica Verma @TrulyMonica]

@Koushik747 @Brahamvakya @IndiaToday @MEAIndia Yup good point

[Monica Verma @TrulyMonica]

@Brahamvakya @IndiaToday @MEAIndia 😂👍 We call it TAR to respect the autonomy of Tibetans. But I guess North Arunachal will better protect their identity than Xizang for sure.

[Monica Verma @TrulyMonica]

Knowing China, we can easily predict that once India gives it legitimacy on Tibet, it will move to claim Arunachal. This is exactly what’s happening. Our own media is helping the Communists do it. How can we be so strategically challenged. Shame @aroonpurie

Former FS @KanwalSibal argues that he opposed, during office, Pakistan's open interference in India's internal affairs via Pakistan High Commissioner to India's holding public meetings with the Kashmiri/Hurriyat separatist leaders (2014):

On this auspicious day of Ashada Ekadashi, I am very happy to announce the launch of my humble attempt to make history interesting.

The idea is actually very very simple

You go to the site, select a year, and It will show you who ruled which part of India at that point in time.

[Indian Strategic Studies Foundation @ISSF_India]

We are turning over a new leaf, and we owe it all to you!

After four years of cultivating a space for compelling voices on Geopolitics and Public Policy as a Forum, your incredible support has helped us grow beyond our initial horizons.

Today, we are thrilled to announce our evolution.

​The Indian Strategic Studies Forum is officially the Indian Strategic Studies Foundation.

What does this mean for you?

​You can expect the exact same reliable insights you’ve come to trust from ISSF, just with an expanded scope.

We are stepping up to deliver our work on a much grander scale.

​Thank you for making this possible.

Here's to our next chapter!

Slowly but steadily, India is starting to crack the technologies others wouldn’t sell.

A Mumbai start-up has developed a 10-gram missile-cooling device that breaks a tightly guarded Western monopoly held by countries including the US, France and Israel. Built by a small team, with DRDO support,

The indigenous JT Cooler chills missile infrared sensors to 196°C, dramatically reducing thermal noise and improving target detection and tracking. via @businessline

Do you know what is the source of wealth of Dinesh Thakur who donates aggressively to Anti National individuals?

Business? No 🙂‍↔️

Important discovery? No 🙂‍↔️

Inheritance? No 🙂‍↔️

He got his money by betraying his company Ranbaxy

Till 2011 he was just a normal employee of Indian Pharma giant Ranbaxy

He was trapped by CIA and to save himself handed all secrets of Ranbaxy, which included some alleged trial data fudging which every US pharma company currently indulge in

Ranbaxy, an Indian company, was growing very fast in US and taking over some major giants

So it was perceived as a threat by US deep state and pharma lobby

Using the papers supplied by Dinesh Thakur, US regulator imposed so heavy a fine on Ranbaxy that the entire company collapsed and had to be merged in Sun Pharma

Dinesh Thakur was given a handsome reward of $48 Million and was put under whistleblower protection to save him from corporate espionage charges

Look at her face in the video. That is not freedom.

Many Pakistani Muslims also keep secret “side arrangements” - trapping poor, debt-bonded Hindu girls and treating them like sex slaves. So, Chanda may not be alone!

How can any woman stay silent knowing the law lets Muslim men take up to four wives… and still keep girls on the side like property?

These girls are not wives. They are not free. They are owned.

In America what would we call that? 😡😡😡

[New Delhi Review of Books @newdelhireview]

‘Though violence lay at the heart of Communist state-making, its legitimacy remained contested in the early 1950s. Capitalists were wary of the Party cadres, youth disillusioned by economic stagnation, and government officials afraid to lose their jobs.

The CCP had not secured the broad base of clients whose protection would justify the state’s authority. The Korean War changed the calculus. Domestically, Mao authorised a sweeping campaign against ‘remnant nationalist forces, secret agents, bandits, and counter-revolutionaries’ (p. 85).

What followed was a reign of terror that cemented the Communist monopoly on violence, though legitimacy was forged less through accommodation than elimination. The methodical scale of this terror is evident in a single fact: Mao issued death quotas across the country, sanctioning the killing of one in every thousand people (p. 87).’

Lathicharge on students protesting peacefully in Ranchi. Since Jharkhand is a Congress-ruled state, all “liberals” will become blind and consume fevicol.

Never thought this day would come:

Chinese Netizens complaining about 17 fold increase in Indian Solar Component manufacturing since 2018 and how it is driving top Chinese Solar companies into deep losses

"Chinese Photovoltaic fortress has been breached from within by India"

"India is our Stalingrad for Solar Manufacturing" (World War 2 reference when German Army was trapped by Russians in city of Stalingrad)
