If they try to undermine the Judiciary, I hope they are dumb enough.

Centerist ideology to take over?

Congress is cursed with incompetent leaders or else the kind of mistakes BJP is making makes it so easy for a Centrist ideology to take centrestage. Congress has turned itself into a Muslim League.

In her memoir Belonging: A Journey of Love, Sonia Gandhi offers a deeply intimate, humanizing account of a life defined by extraordinary public duty and profound personal tragedy. Framing politics as a background framework rather than the central focus, Gandhi traces her arc from an Italian upbringing to becoming a central figure in Indian politics.
The book's heart lies in her relationship with Rajiv Gandhi, portraying their romance not just as a marriage, but as her slow, deeply emotional integration into the Nehru-Gandhi family and India itself. She reflects with vulnerable candor on terrifying moments—such as the aftermath of Operation Blue Star—and devastating heartbreaks, including the loss of her first child and the tragic assassinations of Indira and Rajiv Gandhi.
Beyond grief, Belonging reveals a reserved woman forced to overcome her natural distaste for politics to honor a sense of duty. Written in a warm, reflective tone, it demystifies one of India’s most enigmatic political figures. Belonging stands out as a rare, poignant story of resilience, identity, and an outsider finding home in a complex nation.

American Midterm Election Results, Surprising? Not at all! It is only a message to everyone engaged in political responsibilities of a democratic nation: Democracy is a highly delicate crown deserving of total care in handling; it is invisible and hence sublime like an idea uplifting human spirits. It can’t be a weapon to wield unlimited power at will, to harass the law-abiding or reward the macho perennially in conflict with the law(Order of Nature). Democracy is to be worshipped to serve, not to rule. Election results are not simply victory or defeat, they mandate improved quality of service to the people and greatness to the nation.

I’m from Nagpur, Brahmins vote for BJP candidate. They just voted NOTA and it was manual voting, not digital voting. Almost 8000 Brahmin votes were not to BJP, most of them. NOTA.

Rahul mission failed

Previous mission of Rahul Gandhi has miserably failed. Now he is called to take up a new agenda against India.

UGC is the main pain point for BJP. The Upper cast vote share has reduced hence these results. Only UGC rollback can save them.

UGC masterstroke

UGC masterstroke by mahamanav has successfully alienated even the most pro BJP castes. No management can compensate for structural issues.

ITBP needs competent officers like Nalin Prabhat sir, the Director General of Police, J&K.

Manipur safe

It’s truly encouraging to see a Mizo girl touring Imphal and showcasing that, even amid the Manipur crisis of 2023, the capital city remains welcoming and safe for tourists. Once again, Imphal has proven to be a destination of choice, reflecting the resilience and warmth of its

Why do you think everyone is happy? Benjamins won. I'm happy too. Just that I wish, they become vegan. Before the Garden of Eden, Jews were vegan. They should become vegan once again.

I didn't know that India's bureaucrats are whispering about Astrotalk and predictions based on astrology. Super stuff

Towering figure

J&K forgot the PDP era? At least Omar Abdulla is a towering figure... if you let others take over, Article 370 kya? Statehood be bhool jao.

In truth, the Epstein scandal is insignificant in Indian politics and doesn't invite debate in the Indian public discourse as it has in the West. Plus, New Delhi requires an experiences crisis manager to oversee the present energy crisis, one who is already attuned to the job. So, there is no merit in dispensing with Puri at all.

Dear Dr. Mehrotra,

Eighty-two is a wonderful milestone, but what makes your birthday truly special is the life that has brought you here. For nearly six decades, you have lived journalism, not merely practised it. Your journey, from the early years in print to Whispers in the Corridors, has been a remarkable testament to what passion, perseverance and an unshakeable sense of purpose can achieve.

On your 82nd birthday, I find myself thinking not just of the remarkable journalist you have been, but of the remarkable human being you are. A friendship spanning decades makes one value such things even more deeply.

For nearly six decades, you have given yourself to journalism with a passion and purpose that few can match. Through Whispers in the Corridors, you have continued to inform, provoke and sometimes unsettle the corridors of power. Your reports may have stirred political storms, but you have remained serenely untouched by the turbulence you create. Such equanimity, combined with your characteristic modesty and simplicity, is rare indeed.

What moves me most, however, is that even as your health grows frail and the body begins to falter, your commitment remains as strong and unflinching as ever. The journalist in you refuses to retire from his calling. There is something deeply inspiring about this quiet tenacity. It tells us that when a life's work becomes a life's purpose, neither age nor adversity can easily diminish its hold.

Your life is itself a celebration of commitment. It has been a life devoted to a purpose that is both useful and positive, and one that has made a difference. May the years ahead bring you the very best of health, abundant happiness, and the love and warmth of those who matter most. Above all, may they bring you that deep contentment and bliss which come from looking back upon a life well lived, a purpose faithfully pursued, and a contribution that will endure.

Happy 82nd birthday, Dr. Mehrotra. May life be gentle with you, may your heart remain at peace, and may you continue to find joy in the calling you have served so faithfully.

With much affection, admiration and warmest wishes,

Uday Kumar Varma,
Former Secretary I&B

Congress must come out from the cage of the Gandhi family. Must give responsibility to Shashi Tharoor or Sachin pilot or any other leaders

Significance of Ist November Congress Rally

November 1 in Christianity is celebrated as All Saints Day. It follows October 31. On this day prime minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated. It is called Halloween, widely celebrated in western Christianity, especially USA, Canada etc. Halloween, the night of October 31, when it was believed in the past that dead people appeared from their graves, is celebrated by children who dress as ghosts, witches. November 1st is All Saints' Day (also known as All Hallows' Day or Hallowmas) in Western Christianity. November 2 is All Souls Day !

Rahul Gandhi is the only ray of hope for Pakistan, Bangladesh, China and America, to control the growth of India. That's why people vote for BJP.

Upright and clean gentleman needed in WB

WB needs this upright, clean gentleman to continue as a governor. In contrast to what a neighbouring state got recently.
