As the 2024 U.S. presidential elections approach, the Indian diaspora in America finds itself at a critical juncture. Former President Donald Trump, the leading Republican candidate, is reportedly ahead by a small margin against Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee. While some view Trump as a potential leader capable of addressing global issues, it is essential…
President Draupadi Murmu’s latest remarks on the alarming surge in violence against women, especially in West Bengal, have brought to light a glaring disconnect between political rhetoric and action. Murmu’s expression of concern cuts deep, particularly when West Bengal, under Mamata Banerjee’s Trinamool Congress, seems to be teetering on the edge of lawlessness. Mamata’s audacious…
Granting of bail to Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLC K Kavitha, daughter of former Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR), on Tuesday by Supreme Court in the multi-crore Delhi Excise Policy scam, has ignited a wave of speculation about a possible merger between BRS and the BJP.

The recent actions of the Congress party, marked by nationwide protests demanding the resignation of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) chairman Madhabi Puri Buch, following allegations from Hindenburg Research, expose a deeper duplicity and palpable frustration within the party. These protests, driven by claims that the SEBI chief has a conflict of…
As Prime Minister Narendra Modi approaches his 75th birthday, a media frenzy, possibly fuelled by political biases, has ignited debates on who might succeed him, given that Modi has often set 75 as the age for retirement in his party. It’s a fact that Modi has enforced this retirement benchmark within his ranks, often relegating…
As the poll dates for Jammu and Kashmir announced, the political discourse has once again shifted towards the contentious issue of Article 370. Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of the Opposition, has reiterated his party’s commitment to restoring Article 370 and 35A if elected.
