Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a clarion call that no civilized society can afford to ignore: stand with Israel, or stand with terror. In a message that cuts through the fog of hypocritical diplomacy and moral cowardice, Netanyahu has reminded the world that Israel is not merely fighting Hamas or Hezbollah—it is confronting…
India’s firm stand exposes the US double play After years of projecting himself as the global peacemaker, US President Donald Trump has dropped all pretenses. Following a 35-minute phone conversation with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi—just before his scheduled meeting with Pakistan’s new Army Chief General Asim Munir—Trump appears to have pivoted from peacemaker to…
Once again, the Congress party has scored a spectacular self-goal—this time by mocking Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Canada for the G7 summit. In its desperation to criticise the man it loves to hate, the so-called principal opposition has ended up exposing not only its ignorance of international diplomacy but also its increasing irrelevance…
Let’s face it. In a democracy, debate is healthy. Even necessary. Accidents—no matter how tragic—deserve investigation, accountability, and introspection. But increasingly, a breed of journalists (or should we say activists with press cards?) has turned national tragedies into ideological rampages. Their factory-fitted outrage activates faster than any black box recorder—and the blame, of course, must…
The devastating Air India crash that claimed the lives of 242 passengers and crew, including former Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani, has left the nation reeling. But amid the sorrow, hard questions must be asked. One such question, raised boldly by Republic TV’s Arnab Goswami, points to a deeply unsettling possibility: was a Turkish connection…
By appointing Pakistan—a state long accused of nurturing, sheltering, and glorifying terrorism—as the Vice-Chair of its Counter-Terrorism Committee, the United Nations has once again shown why its credibility is in tatters. India’s Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, never known to mince words, rightfully called out this grotesque contradiction for what it is: “Asking a cat to…
Rahul Gandhi has once again thrown mud at India’s democratic institutions, hoping some of it sticks. This time, the target is the Election Commission of India (ECI), a constitutional body respected across the world for its impartiality and administrative robustness. His repetition of his earlier allegation—that a staggering 41 lakh voters were mysteriously added in…
Today, June 9, 2025, marks 11 years since Narendra Modi became Prime Minister of India—a milestone that reflects not just political longevity but transformational leadership that has reshaped the nation’s trajectory. Over these 11 years, India has experienced more than governance; it has witnessed purposeful, determined statesmanship. Yet, a dysfunctional Opposition remains fixated on him…
The bromance between Donald Trump and Elon Musk has finally short-circuited. What began as a transactional flirtation between the world’s richest disruptor and the Republican powerhouse has now blown up into a very public, very personal feud — one that could shake the foundations of the Grand Old Party (GOP) in a critical election cycle….
Can a district collector file a report against the very government that appointed him? Can an officer of the state investigate his political masters and bring them to justice?
