Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
None of Pakistan’s PMs has lasted 5 years. That the current PM has given Asim Munir 5 years shows that of all military dictatorships history has seen, Pakistan’s is most creative.
The India-South Africa series-defining fact is the catastrophic decline of Indian red ball cricket where a visiting team can mock us with the 'grovel' word.
It is a brilliant, reasonably priced, and mostly homemade aircraft with a stellar safety record; only two crashes in 24 years since its first flight. But its crash is a moment of introspection.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
This world is being restructured and redrawn by one man, and what’s his power? It’s not his formidable military. It’s trade. With China, it turned on him.
On 21 Oct, a buzz went up that the govt had released full list of gallantry award recipients along with Op Sindoor citations. I put an AI caddy on the job. It took me into a never-ending rabbit hole.
Education, reservations, govt jobs are meant to bring equality and dignity. That we are a long way from that is evident in the shoe thrown at the CJI and the suicide of Haryana IPS officer. The film Homebound has a lesson too.
Pakistan’s army has been a rentier force available to a reasonable bidder. It has never come to the aid of any Muslims including Palestinians or the Gazans, except making noises here and there.
The Telangana government, which has still not even fully absorbed the TGSRTC, is now going to take over the Hyderabad metro rail. Expectations are not high.
Instead of buying more Mirages outright in early 2000s, the requirement was tweaked in favour of a medium-weight, multi-role fighter with Mirage-like performance.
Pakistan not only has zero chance of catching up with India in most areas, but will inevitably see the gap rising. Its leaders will offer its people the same snake oil in different bottles.
Entire ecosystem has been engaged in an effort to make RaGa out of Pappu. Take the example of Print only, how many articles devoted to this theme in last few days? What CONgress fails to understand is that this is impossible task. RaGa to Pappu is one way journey.
Another version of *Rahul has matured” , second rebirth, revival of Rahul and all the other bullshit. Please for god’s sake stop giving this guy so many rebirths. Even a cat does not have that many lives.
As regards whether power is a poison, by itself it isn’t. But some individuals tend to convert it into poison, like a body may convert food into poison if its digestion and assimilation is not how it should be! Besides, as regards whether Congress wants power, yes, it does. But Rahul Gandhi can still shun power though trying to wrest it for the party.
The point is what does he stand for I haven’t seen one original thought on how to create employment or generate wealth, all he talks a out redistribution of wealth, for journalists it sounds good, feels good to write, but what are outcomes of his winning should be judged. There I am afraid he has not shown any intellectual depth .
