Isn't the name "India" a derivative of "Sindhu"?

The top 0.0001% of applicants are supposed to be better than the top 1%, what has being an Indian or a Chinese got anything to do with that? IITs are good because of a massively skewed demand-supply mismatch amongst other factors of lesser influence. I think you are exaggerating our strengths

It's been 11 years on the forum for me, I can map a lot of personal checkpoints to my level of engagement with the forum in the last 11 years (my girl friend in 2008 used to suspect that I was cheating on her as I'd find excuses to spend time on the forum late at night than speak with her over...

I was thinking of the same thing before I read your comment. The higher the jingoism, the more is the propensity to take causalities during the actual conflict I am not sure if Vietnam was unwinnable had america not had massive civilian protests. Public sentiment is an important factor. They...

We have had three wars in the last 70 years, only three. Pakistan's economy is in tatters contributed by to a large extent by an everlasting threat of war, while all our economic KPIs are green and growing. Not taking our soft power of our overall influence on the global powers into context, the...

Our complicated history was a result of a severely mismanaged and ill-timed partition. We only have our forefathers to blame. I guess every sensible person would want to settle disputes and stabilize the growth trajectory. The illusion of perpetual wrong-doing mixed with religious passion would...

He must have had a rough day, don't take the vent away from him doc. The saying "When you are holding a hammer, everything looks like a nail" - couldn't be more apt here. Most of our Pakistani brothers see the world through the lens of strength (/weakness) while the powers that be play with a...

The reason for your benevolence towards us would be?

I fail to understand the logic of relegating people entirely to the faith that they were born into. Do you realise the enormous level of bias that single thought can generate in your mind? It's stupid and juvenile to have such a closeted mindset in this day and age, for all you know you may have...

A rare honest depiction of how you truly feel deep-down inside, it also happens to be the faith of a large number of your fellow country men. I wish you actually step out of your bubble and speak to a hindu someday and realise you can be connect on a sea of commonalities

I am not a big fan of our jugaad work ethic. There is so much to be done, people in India do not pursue excellence in any way.

One thing most people don't factor is that in a war, the biggest threat is running out of fuel and spares. Logistics eat -up a crazy amount of the stock-pile and funds. Each day a nation is at war is a huge toll on the economy. So a higher number of weapon systems require a dense, massive...

I am not too big on patriotism, and had the Kashmiri struggle been based on socio-economic and political reasons, I would have been ashamed of being an Indian. But it's not, as the author of the article puts it, it's driven by a religious narrative and hence has no utilitarian value behind it in...

Had a lot of respect for Khabib with regards to the dignified manner in which he dealt with the idiot Mcgregor during the pre-match timeline. The fight was an accurate depiction of the level of difference both fighter had as Khabib outclassed the loudmouth McG. But what happened after the match...

I do not want to derail the thread but from what I have read, bill c16 (now a law) does enforce the usage of gender appropriate pronouns and courts can penalize you in failing to abide by the right pronoun usage guidelines. The punishment might be community service or of a monetary nature...

Ratna Omidvar is an idiot. She is a leftist social justice warrior who was taken apart by Jordan Peterson in a hearing on a bill to pass a legislation on criminalizing the non-usage of "gender-appropriate pronouns" in canada. Watch this, it shows what an idiot she is:

Whats your opinion of your captain? I found him very disappointing not cus you guys lost matches but his on-filed tactics and his behavior seemed outdated for this day and age. The BD captain I think has been a real rockstar in the way he has controlled all matches
