Last week, I had the misfortune of running into a left-liberal masquerading as a journalist. One of those specimens who spent most of his career comfortably ensconced in a government-owned television channel, surviving not on merit but on entitlement, proximity, and ideological conformity. He greeted me with forced curiosity and then, with the characteristic smugness…
A Special Report on India’s Spiritual Gift to the World Today is World Meditation Day, being celebrated across the globe. The fact that the United Nations has recognized its importance and declared December 21 as World Meditation Day is yet another accomplishment reflecting India’s timeless ethos, civilisation and culture. After Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s relentless…
What Karnataka and Telangana are demanding today is not social justice; it is constitutional butchery disguised as benevolence. Their brazen push for 56 to 60 per cent reservations, and the audacity to demand its burial in the Ninth Schedule, is nothing but a calculated attempt to permanently destroy the very idea of reservations while pretending…
Over the last decade, India’s steady ascent as a credible military power has unfolded despite persistent scepticism abroad and deliberate narrative sabotage at home. While adversarial states continue to test India through terror proxies, cyber operations and internal destabilisation, sections of the domestic ecosystem remain curiously invested in downplaying the armed forces’ growing capabilities. Yet,…
The Congress Party’s celebratory chest-thumping over the recent Delhi High Court proceedings in the National Herald case reveals something deeply troubling. Either the party does not understand the law it so frequently sermonises about—or it is deliberately misleading the country. Contrary to the manufactured narrative pushed by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and the party’s legal…
The Congress party’s increasingly desperate attempt to manufacture a narrative of “vote chori” has suffered a serious blow—not from the BJP or the Election Commission of India (ECI), but from within its own INDIA bloc. Rahul Gandhi’s reckless allegations questioning the integrity of India’s electoral process and casting aspersions on a constitutional body were meant…
For years, the Opposition has perfected a lazy political slogan: “BJP is stealing elections.” EVMs, institutions, democracy—everything is allegedly compromised. But as the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in West Bengal progresses, an inconvenient question now demands an answer: who is actually stealing votes? Because what the SIR is unearthing is…
At a time when Indian politics is increasingly weighed down by entitlement, dynastic privilege, and ideological drift, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has once again demonstrated why it claims—credibly—to be a party with a difference. The appointment of Bihar minister Nitin Nabin, just 45, as the BJP’s new Working President is not merely an organisational…
I walked into the theatre more out of curiosity than conviction. The reviews of Durandhar were already trending, social media was buzzing, and long queues of self-described nationalists and patriots were forming outside cinema halls. I wanted to see for myself whether the film was mere political propaganda—or whether it dared to revisit uncomfortable truths…
When an exposé begins to hurt, those thriving on rot inevitably strike back—not with facts, but with intimidation, insinuation and entitlement. That moment has arrived. Following the publication of this e-paper’s article, “When Merit Is Benched: How HCA Keeps Sabotaging Its Own Future,” a private academy promoter—widely known in cricketing circles as a “broker,” though…
