In post on social media, Cooper narrated experience of MiG-21 researcher from Germany who wanted to attend aircraft’s farewell ceremony in India, and the roadblocks he faced.
What Munir has achieved with Trump is a return to normal, ironing out the post-Abbottabad crease. The White House picture gives us insight into how Pakistan survives, occasionally thrives and thinks.
The reality is 35 people are dead and crores of rupees lost. We will never know who the organizers were. Only low level goons deployed will be caught, that too just the stupid ones who did not cover their faces either to impress their bosses or display their heroism.
Who gained from this mayhem and how ?
Did Modi Government / BJP gain ? if Yes how.
Was it the opposition that gained ? if yes How.
Was anyone trying to pressurize the judiciary for influencing the out come pronouncements of the 9 Judge bench which takes up sensitive issues, besides the CAA, NRC etc.
But one thing for sure the western media had a field day through their agents in India.One only needs to follow a specific Indian channel to know what the western media and Sanders has to say. We have our own, outside India who are called the left, liberal intellectuals basically indulging in India bashing and more so since the present dispensation has come to power.
All of us reading the PRINT are privileged ones and are unlikely to ever go to the streets. The best we can do is to think and if anyone of has an idea of managing without measuring it could help the country of 140 crores to run with individuals without any identity. NO AADHAR NO NRC
This was no riot or clash. Even usually “neutral” or pro-establishment journalists have testified to the fact that they were asked to prove that they were Hindus. Any one who still says that it was a riot (which implies violence from both sides) is either totally brain-washed or is deliberately twisting the truth. Names do matter because that helps us demand justice. Yes, the dead and their kin don’t care what spin Shah is now trying to give to the matter but justice is something that even the dead would want.

However, it cannot be denied that much of anti-intellectual propaganda is aimed at silencing critical voices of resistance.
And yes, it matters whether you call it a riot or a pogrom. Because language plays a vital role as to how truth is presented and registered.
When media platforms try to act ‘neutral’ by calling it a riot and not a pogrom, and thus shielding the perpetrators within the ruling establishment, it is upto the academics and intellectuals to call out this dishonesty and cowardice, albeit by debating over the term to be used.
While media across the globe has reported the unfortunate incidents rightly as “state-sponsored anti-Muslim mob violence by a Fascist government”, our own media finds it more convenient to publish such crudely rhetorical articles based on false equivalency rather than to grow a spine and speak truth to the power.
I have to laugh at the stupidity of people thinking ‘liberals’ can plan this. Liberals cant even tie their shoelaces. anything to deflect attention for Amit Sha’s ineptitude eh?
Objective is achieved and the intended message has been sent. Concerned populace has started to move out of the area. The gains will be consolidated for the next elections. The leadership is hopeful for the future.
liberals are now panicking as the whole sinister plot that begins from opposing a humanitarian law is coming out in the open. Make no mistake more damage has been suffered by Hindus, hence urgent need to term a riot as pogrom.
Academicians of politics and social sciences are at most times disconnected from the real societal realities. Nothing new in that. The question about debating over the “right terminology” is testament to the narrow mindedness of most academicians. No wonder people question formal education many a times.
