One statement from Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Madhubani, Bihar — a bold warning that India would respond to Pakistan’s provocations “beyond their imagination” — has left Pakistan trembling. That’s understandable. A habitual rogue state getting called out and threatened with real consequences is enough to send its generals scurrying for cover. What’s not understandable…
This is a sincere appeal from many among India’s majority Hindu community, including me as a seasoned journalist who had seen and experienced the political evolution for the past four decades, not as adversaries, but as fellow citizens, as neighbours, and as people who share this ancient and diverse land. We write not to accuse…
At long last, the Indian Parliament has signalled that it will no longer play second fiddle to the judiciary when it comes to making laws. In a much-needed assertion of constitutional propriety, the Centre has made it abundantly clear to the Supreme Court: legislation is the sole prerogative of the Legislature, not a domain for…
In the aftermath of the barbaric killing of 26 tourists in Pahalgam, the Indian government has responded not with impulsive bluster, but with strategic depth and restrained force—hallmarks of a confident, rising military power. While cynics hastily question whether mere diplomatic reprisals like suspending the Indus Waters Treaty or freezing visas are enough, they miss…

The growing unease among large sections of India’s population over the judiciary’s recent actions is no longer a fringe sentiment. When BJP MPs like Nishikant Dubey and Dinesh Sharma express frustration with the Supreme Court’s approach under Justice Sanjiv Khanna, they’re not speaking in isolation. Their anger reflects a broader discontent, particularly among the Hindu…
The recent protests against the Waqf Amendment Act, spearheaded by All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi alongside the All-India Muslim Personal Law Board, raise serious questions—both about the motivations behind the resistance and the historic role of AIMIM in India’s socio-political landscape.
