Donald Trump’s latest diplomatic outburst is a masterclass in how not to conduct international relations. Days before his planned meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, the U.S. President issued a public threat — warning of “very severe consequences” if Russia did not agree to end the war in Ukraine during their discussions. Let’s be clear:…
If there were ever doubts about India’s trajectory toward becoming a global military powerhouse, they are being silenced, one indigenous innovation at a time. The transformation is visible, loud, and clear: the days of a lethargic defence research establishment, starved of funds and morale, are gone. In their place stands a buzzing, confident scientific community—backed…
Never in recent memory have India’s armed forces—men and women who guard our borders at the risk of their lives—been so deeply hurt by political recklessness. At a time when our soldiers and airmen have just scored a decisive victory in a four-day conflict with Pakistan, the Opposition has chosen not to celebrate them, but…
By picking trade fights with half the planet, US President Donald Trump seems determined to make “America Great” — on everyone’s nerves.

Let’s admit it—Arnab Goswami’s prime-time debates on his Republic TV are not for the faint-hearted. Watching his show is like diving into a whirlwind: chaotic, ear-splitting, and riddled with interruptions. And yet, like that extra helping of spicy chaat, it’s oddly addictive. You may hate the noise, you may despise the format, but you can’t…
Mass rapes, murders, and systemic silence — Karnataka must confront its darkest truth A chilling whistleblower account has torn through the facade of Dharmasthala — the revered temple town in Karnataka — revealing a horror story of mass rapes, murders, and secret burials spanning nearly two decades.

The world is watching. And many are wondering: has Donald Trump lost the plot? In recent weeks, the U.S. President has gone from erratic to downright dangerous, issuing threats like candy at a carnival. His latest tantrum? A warning to India and Russia—two sovereign nations—against continued oil trade. Trump has threatened India with “substantial tariffs”…
When does free speech in politics cross the line into deliberate sabotage of constitutional institutions? That’s the uncomfortable question India must now confront as irresponsible Opposition leaders turn baseless allegations into a political tool—particularly against the Election Commission of India (ECI), the very institution that safeguards the sanctity of our democracy. The latest transgressor is…
Trump’s tantrums won’t derail Bharat’s rise in AI, semiconductors, or sovereign decision-making India stands today at the cusp of technological transformation—building its own AI stack, investing in semiconductor self-reliance, scaling up military manufacturing, and expanding its space frontiers.
