While the world looks up, India looks within. As global powers crowd the heavens with satellites, sensors, and space weapons, India has quietly chosen a more intelligent path—developing missile systems that see, think, and strike without any satellite support. In doing so, India isn’t racing anyone—it’s redefining what it means to be truly independent in…
When politics runs out of oxygen, Congress finds a new arena to inject its old poison — religion. This time, it’s not a temple, not a school, not even Parliament. It’s cricket — the one institution that unites 1.4 billion Indians across faiths. Congress spokesperson Shama Mohamed, known more for her television theatrics than for…
When a body born out of a nationwide anti-corruption crusade turns into a caricature of itself, it’s not irony—its tragedy dressed in luxury. The Lokpal of India, meant to be the moral custodian against graft, has invited tenders to purchase seven BMW 330Li sedans, each costing over ₹60 lakh. Yes, the anti-corruption ombudsman now wants…
When politics sinks to the gutter, it usually wears the Congress badge. Karnataka’s Minister for IT and Rural Development, Priyank Kharge, son of Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, has just offered fresh proof.

No one plays political roulette quite like Donald Trump. His recent about-face on Hamas—from casual indifference to full-throated condemnation—illustrates the former U.S. president’s trademark blend of instinct, opportunism, and improvisation. But behind this latest flip-flop lies something larger than Trump’s ego: a world struggling to define moral consistency in an age where alliances shift faster…
The Supreme Court’s decision to quash multiple FIRs under the Uttar Pradesh Prohibition of Unlawful Conversion of Religion Act, 2021, is a welcome affirmation of legal sanity. The bench of Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra rightly identified “glaring infirmities” and procedural lapses in these FIRs, emphasizing that criminal law cannot be wielded as a…
When the International Monetary Fund (IMF) revised India’s GDP growth forecast upward to 6.6 percent for 2026, it did more than publish a statistic—it validated New Delhi’s steady economic stewardship and unflinching national resolve in an increasingly uncertain world. That this optimism comes despite punitive U.S. tariffs, global trade disruptions, and a barrage of Western…
Fifteen years after Delhi’s disgrace, India readies to redeem its sporting honour under a government that delivers. When India last hosted the Commonwealth Games in 2010, the world expected a rising superpower to flaunt its potential. Instead, it witnessed the rot of a system steeped in greed. The Delhi Games became a carnival of corruption…
New Delhi: India is on track to lead the world in rail technology systems and is at the forefront of engineering innovation, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said on Wednesday.

Renowned lyricist and screenwriter Javed Akhtar’s words often carry weight. But sometimes, the selective direction of his outrage raises uncomfortable questions. His recent post on X, expressing “shame” over India hosting the Taliban’s acting foreign minister Amir Khan Muttaqi, is one such instance. “I hang my head in shame when I see the kind of…
