You are too blinded by your Modi bhakti to see that he is misusing the official twitter account of the PM office for his self-glorification. And yes as soon as someone criticizes Modi bring out your usual shield of deflecting it to Congress. That is your best defense.
Actually you are wrong. BJP came into power playing a very safe game. They were helped immensely by two factors. (1) Scams after scams from the previous govt, (2) Economic slowdown in the last few years of UPA. Those two were their main agendas during the campaign trail. If you listen to Modi's...
Don't blame IITs for one loud-mouth with foot in the mouth disease. Dramaqueen Kejriwal went to IITD, but then Raghuram Rajan is also from IITD. you get the point.
I have never liked Arnab's cacophonic style and I can't watch his drama for more than 5 mins. But he was still a breath of fresh air during UPA because he was not a part of the Delhi based pro-govt journalist circle. He has lost all of that with his Modi bhakti in the last year or so. He is now...
Jai ho. Bharat mata ki jai!
Has anyone noticed PMO's official twitter account? Modi has made a mockery of it with his incessant obsession of self-glorification. What a megalomaniac we got as PM! Even teenage girls aren't so excited about their birthdays. From photo-ops with his mother to...
I don't know if it is illegal but it is highly unethical of a sitting PM to let his image be used in such a way. But Ambani, Adani etc have invested a lot of capital on Modi. For example the guy clocked up thousands on miles on their private jets during his campaign, so some amount of quid pro...
Consumers always benefit from competition so this is good but mobile data can't act as the primary connection for most people. 50RS/GB is still very expensive if you plan to use it as your main connection. India needs a nationwide revolution in the wired internet sector. It is still abysmal...
Came across an interesting comment under a Hindu article--
"The LEMOA is on its face an innocent agreement to eliminate red tape to make port calls in emergency cases such as disaster relief or repairs. But, it is any thing but innocent. For example, if there is a conflict between India and...
I don't see any reason why this could be bad for us. It is strictly a logistical agreement. This won't allow US to have troops on Indian soil. Besides, India also stands to gain from this. We already do most of the things included in this agreement. This only makes them more streamlined.
Good decision.

Can't blame the police officers for enforcing the law as we don't know what orders they were under but the law itself is stupid and regressive. It is one thing to ban face-covering veils (which I fully support) but it's another to ban the whole outfit; the latter is actually against western...
We should neither exaggerate nor downplay it at this point. Let's wait for the official investigation report. On the face of it, this does look like a major crisis but only a proper investigation would reveal how much of the leaked data is really sensitive and classified. But regardless, there...
