The political dynasty that once wielded unchallenged influence over Indian politics is now facing its most serious legal challenge in decades.

In a significant hearing on Tuesday, the Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court, now led by Chief Justice of India, Justice B.R. Gavai, signalled a cautious and constitutionally sound approach in the challenge to the Waqf Act. The Bench, also comprising Justice A.G. Masih, underscored a core legal principle: “Every legislation passed by Parliament carries…
By no means should a nation that boasts of one of the world’s finest, most disciplined armed forces ever tolerate attempts to malign or divide it along lines of caste, religion, or gender. Yet, that is precisely what we are witnessing—statements from both the Left-liberal academic elite and certain right-wing political actors that shamefully drag…
It’s hard to tell whether one should laugh, cry, or roll one’s eyes at Asaduddin Owaisi’s latest outburst on the Waqf (Amendment) Act, 2025.

If there were a global championship for diplomatic confusion, President Donald Trump would win it hands down—and then tweet both the win and its denial in under 24 hours.

In the aftermath of India’s decisive four-day military retaliation against Pakistan, a section of Indian media has once again betrayed national interest. Outlets like The Hindu and The Wire reportedly published narratives eerily sympathetic to Islamabad, raising the question: how long will the Indian state tolerate this fifth column masquerading as journalism? The government of…
Who is the United States trying to fool? Does it still live under the delusion that its self-appointed ‘Big Brother’ role grants it the power to hoodwink the world with outdated Cold War theatrics? In a telling moment of panic, the U.S. President Donald Trump scrambled to deflect attention after India’s precision strike on Pakistan’s…
In a world where national interest demands clarity and courage, Prime Minister Narendra Modi chose to ignore the noise and act.
