Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar, rightly and unapologetically, reminded the European Union of something India has long wanted the West to understand but has rarely voiced so bluntly: India is looking for partners, not preachers. His comment came in the wake of the barbaric Pahalgam massacre in Jammu and Kashmir—a chilling reminder that the fangs of…
In the theatre of Indian politics, yesterday’s adversaries often become today’s allies. But the visible bonhomie between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief N. Chandrababu Naidu is more than just a political convenience. It signals a strategic reset—deep, calculated, and long overdue. This week’s grand show of camaraderie in Amaravati, where…
India is facing a diplomatic absurdity that borders on farce. The Pakistani government is brazenly refusing to take back its nationals, even those carrying valid Pakistani passports, as New Delhi finally musters the political will to deport illegal immigrants who pose a growing internal security risk. This isn’t just an international embarrassment; it’s a direct…
At long last, the caste census will be part of the official national Census, with the Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs giving it the green light. This is a historic decision—politically astute, constitutionally sound, and socially consequential. But predictably, the Opposition is already squabbling to claim credit for a move that exposes its past duplicity….
At a time of heightened tension along the borders and the looming threat of cross-border terrorism, one would expect every political party to speak in one voice, or at the very least, avoid fanning division. But the Congress party, now a shadow of its former self, seems determined to sink deeper into the political muck….
Once revered as the “mother of journalism,” the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has today reduced itself to a tired relic of colonial arrogance. Far from upholding any journalistic integrity, it has turned into a propaganda tool relentlessly targeting India, particularly since India’s economic and strategic ascent under Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Let’s call it for…
The much-hyped reunion buzz between Uddhav Thackeray and his estranged cousin Raj Thackeray is little more than a political mirage — a desperate ploy by two sinking ships trying to cling to each other in the stormy waters of Maharashtra politics. On the surface, the prospect of a Thackeray family truce could sound momentous. After…
The passing of Dr. Krishnaswamy Kasturirangan marks the end of an era in Indian space science. A visionary scientist, institution builder, and tireless champion of India’s space ambitions, Kasturirangan was not just a name on the long list of ISRO’s chairmen. He was a defining force—one who charted India’s leap from modest remote sensing applications…
The mask is off, the gloves are off—and so is the patience. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, known for his strategic silence, has finally thundered from the heartland of Bihar with a promise no Indian can afford to ignore: the bloodbath in Pahalgam will not go unpunished. Twenty-six innocent tourists—men, women, children—from different corners of India…
Another attack. Another set of funerals. Twenty-six people — tourists and two young Indian Army officers — were gunned down in cold blood in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. This wasn’t a random act of violence. It was a calibrated message from Rawalpindi, scripted by the ISI and signed in blood by Pakistan-sponsored terrorists. And they’re…
