#AsimMunir as Field Marshal an insult to that exalted mil rnk,held by very few in the world. Essentially,given their rotten sys,he has made himself FM.What next: President of Terroristsan?Pathetic for a vanqished Gen to elevate himslf to reinforce their false narrative of victory

My short voice text on #OperationSindoor on #vividbharti facebook.com/share/v/19Gy2T…

#Trump inviting #Munir for lunch a blow to whatevr semblance of pol ldrship exists in #Pakistan. Its an insult to #ShehbazSharif. Trump treating Munir as head of state, which he de-facto is.But the most powerful man on earth granting legitimacy to Munir disturbing.Iran interest?

My recent article in 'The Print', where l briefly analyse the US Pak embrace theprint.in/yourturn/subsc…

#Indiavsgalnd #indiacricket. Why all the emphasis on #Bumrah easing his work load? Other bowlers like #siraj #AkashDeep etc working their butts off. Won us a game without #Bumrah. What r we preserving him for?This is national duty-perform or perish. Stop mollycoddling our best

#mig21retirement. A good but over delayed step.Over 400 #mig21 lost in accidents since 1971-72,killing 200 pilots& 50+civilians on ground.Even as this versatile ac played a pivotal role in 65&71 wars,someone in the pol&beurcratic est has a lot to answer. Rember Rang de Basanti?

#AsiaCup .Hv tweeted earlier we shd NOT play #pak.Why must #Cricket go on when all else- water,trade,talks stopped?Pls respect sacrifices of soldiers& #Pahalgam victims. Money not abov nation. If #BCCI doesnt agree,our players shd collectively refuse to play Pak.Btw,am a crkt fan

Ref my earlier tweet on the subj.This survey by a TV chnl bizzare.Whats surprising is not the 45 odd % who dont want 🇮🇳 to play 🇵🇰,but that about 22% do!Who r these ppl?Is #BCCI more pwrful than govt?Op Sindoor still on.Whatevr the cost,we shd NOT play Pak. Is money abv evrythng?

It's heartening to see #IndianRailways naming some of their locomotive engines ('power', as they call it) after #IndianArmy war heroes. Pleasently surprised to see this yesterday at #Varanasi rly stn.

This battered Jonga (a light veh of the #indianarmy) long since phased out, served me very well as company cdr back in the 90s in counterinsurgency ops in the NE. It could cross shallow water streams,negotiate cross country terrain, jungles & never failed me.Miss those heady days

After a no of policemen caught on video taking bribes to let overloaded trucks pass in Banda(UP) &other distts,150 of them transferred &a few suspended. Is this adequate punishment for such a henious offence?Can corruption be rooted out this way?Why not sack them &set an example

With 30 deaths reported due to #SIR pressure,mostly school teachers, govt could use unemployed grads in each distt on monthly remuneration on contractual basis. It would give them temp employment &also relieve overburdened govt teachrs to discharge their primary duty of teaching

Sparks indeed did fly!Does V.Mtrm written 150 yrs ago,widely acceptd as natl song,merit 10 hrs each for discussion in a fractious parl session where SO many imp issues need imp debate?The sinking #INC still feels it can win back some of its lost votes by flagging such issues.Sad

This little obituary in Lucknow edition of Times of India caught my attn. Firstly,tributes to the intrepid air warrior 🫡 .Secondly, rare to see a State minister's son serving in the Def forces! On both counts, the fallen hero and the family deserve credit. JaiHind & respect 🇮🇳

Why do we need an 'American Hindu Scholar' to enlighten Indians on Indian or Hindu matters?Dont we have enuf of them of all hues&views in India?They certainly undrstand indian reality better. Is it our penchant &/or insatiable appetite/liking for everything/everyone white? #ndtv

Creativity, not to mention business acumen, on the back of an e-rickshaw 😀

I argue in this piece published in "The Print" how sports and politics have always been closely interwoven, despite proclamations to the contrary by many theprint.in/yourturn/subsc…

Why so many global CEOs are Indian is the wrong question. The real question is what kind of system produces them. This isn’t about Indians being genetically smarter or IITs magically creating genius. It’s only about selection pressure. India is not a talent factory. India is a
