These folks should be debarred from ever receiving a visa to India for making a spectacle of themselves. They are Americans; visiting India is NOT a right for any foreigner. She clearly doesn't even have OCI status.

Oh yes, she belongs to a party that provides a level playing field -- for itself!! In WB, TMC goons are out in force on election day, intimidating voters who might vote BJP, debarring their ability to reach the voting booths. And post election Mamata's goons kill 100+ BJP workers

If there was ever any doubt about the truth regarding Chinese ownership of the Panama Canal (as asserted by ⁦President Donald J. Trump⁩), this Chinese editorial dispels them completely. Trump has got what he wanted on Panama Canal ownership ft.com/content/b92c59…

What an idiot this new MP from Wayanad is. Hamas killed 1200+ civilians on 7/10/2023, knowing that Israel would respond (as is allowed in international law). Terrorist group Hamas then hid its fighters among civilians in order to maximise casualties, while continuing to hold

This is how Hindus in Bangladesh are being treated: killed casually for fun by the ruling establishment, for alleged links to the Awami League.

Discussing Tariff Wars, China's dilemmas, US strategy, reset of Global World order and what reciprocal US tariffs could mean to India. Fascinating conversation with Prasenjit K. Basu. Video link in comments.

Amid overblown rhetoric about a 'global recession' arising from Trump's tariffs, I discussed the real situation with Mayank N. Singh🇮🇳 Smoot-Hawley tariffs in 1930 aren't comparable: 80% US tariff then resulted in widespread retaliation. This time, Vietnam, India, Mexico are likely

Mamata Banerjee is the Yahya Khan of West Bengal. We should formally start calling her Mamtaj Begum. She has started the ethnic cleansing of Hindus from Murshidabad, exactly as happened in Srinagar from 19th January 1990.

First they slaughtered the Hindus of Kolkata (16th August 1946) to create Pakistan. Then they began the genocide of Hindus in east Pakistan, reducing them from 30% of the population in 1941 to 22% in 1951, 14% in the early-1970s, and below 9% now in 'Bangladesh'. Now they're

Pakistan's DGMO (Director General for Military Operations) has contacted his Indian counterpart seeking direct talks to de-escalate the conflict. This, after Pakistan's cowardly attacks on civilians overnight that killed more than 20 Indian civilians (including a senior JKAS

Happy 85th Birthday to my boyhood cricketing hero Erapalli Anantrao Srinivasa Prasanna. He took the first test wicket I saw in person as an 8 year old at the Eden Gardens on 1st January 1973 & bowled us to our 1st first overseas test series win, NZ-1968 images.app.goo.gl/GNUu7ggkXv372t…

After 5.5 hours sitting in the plane on the Sharjah tarmac while the captain argued with ground engineers about the cost of repairs and the time spent at the airport, it was decided to fly back to Delhi rather than go to Paris (the original destination). We landed at Delhi

After we landed back in Delhi (3:07am on 8th June) instead of reaching Paris as scheduled at 10:45pm IST on 7th June, we had enough time to make it onto the next Air India flight to Paris at 4:35am (where Business Class seats were available). But inefficient gtound-handling meant

ToI today lists the 5 Indian batsmen who have scored a century in each innings of a test match, and says #SunilGavaskar has done it twice. Such an elementary cricket error. Sunnybhai was the first batsman in test history to have scored a century in each innings of a test match
