The Opposition’s grand INDIA block is crumbling so fast it should apply for heritage status before it collapses entirely. For months, its leaders boasted about unity, shared values, collective strength, and that magic word— “morale.” Today, that morale looks like a deflated balloon lying in a corner while every party kicks it for fun. The…
Every time an Indian military aircraft goes down—especially one built indigenously—a predictable chorus springs to life. The naysayers awaken, foreign arms lobbies turn hyperactive, and social-media warriors with little understanding of aviation technology rush to ridicule India’s capabilities. Worse, a private TV news channel promoter, who imagines himself an expert in all things under the…
India today stands at a civilisational crossroads because of one man whose words should have been enough to trigger swift, uncompromising prosecution: Sharjeel Imam. Not because he is an activist. Not because he criticised a law. But because he openly called for cutting India into pieces—and has been rewarded with years of prime-time sympathy, academic…
The recent remarks by PDP leader Mehbooba Mufti—calling the arrest of the Delhi blast accused an “insult to Kashmir”—are not merely irresponsible; they represent a deeper, systemic pattern of political destabilisation long practised by the Abdullahs, the Muftis and their national patron, the Congress. When a mainstream politician attempts to convert a counter-terror operation into…
The death sentence handed down to former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina by the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) was expected, yet it has plunged the country into an even deeper political and moral crisis. What is unfolding in Dhaka is not merely a courtroom drama but a clash over legitimacy, accountability, and the very future…
The Bihar mandate has delivered more than a political victory; it has redrawn the national script. The BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), by breaching the never-imagined 203-seat mark in a 243-member House, has not merely humbled the Opposition—it has exposed the complete strategic bankruptcy of the Congress and its disjointed allies. The result is a…
If the exit polls after the second phase of the Bihar Assembly elections are any indication, one thing stands out clearly — the Indian voter has matured. The projections suggest a comfortable victory for the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) led by Nitish Kumar, while the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) of Tejashwi Yadav appears headed for…
If Monday evening’s blast near the Red Fort — a place that symbolises the nation’s sovereignty — is any measure, we are again reminded that terror is no distant abstraction but an immediate, painful fact. In moments like these, the nation looks not for slogans but for clarity, for leadership that acts with both muscle…
New York City has made history — and perhaps invited a storm. Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old Indian-origin Democrat and self-proclaimed socialist, has pulled off what many see as a political earthquake: defeating both seasoned politicians like former Governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa to become the first South Asian, youngest, and Muslim mayor of…
Indian politics has for too long survived on one self-serving myth: that those who appease minorities are secular, while those who refuse to bow to votes are communal. But suddenly, the mask has slipped, not because the BJP exposed it, but because the Chief Minister of Telangana, A. Revanth Reddy, himself confessed the truth in…
