No side is playing by the Constitution in letter and spirit, and India is hurtling into a grey zone where rule of law is no longer the yardstick for anything.
Indian liberals haven’t yet realised the political effectiveness of Hindutva constitutionalism. They treat the Constitution as the final, self-evident political text.
The political trajectory is clear. Asim Munir is now prepared to convict and sentence Imran Khan for instigating a rebellion against the army chief, with no possibility of mercy.
RBI data shows 26 states and Union Territories couldn’t regain pre-pandemic foreign tourist footfalls in 2024, but domestic tourism surged 27 percent compared to 2019.
Of the total package, $649 million will be utilised for additional hardware, software, and support services, and the remaining for Major Defence Equipment (MDE).

Nothing new. India has been ruled by mob since 1947. Rule of Law was an issue only for the Kings and the Zamindars, the monarchial and feudal elite. The democratic leaders have always paid lip service to the idea of rule of law just to sound good among the people. The only way to make the government work your way in democratic divided India is to hold it by it’s collar. Otherwise it will just trample over you and bulldoze you into oblivion.
The present protest by the rich-farmers of Punjab and by small number of farmers from Haryana still supporting Harayana s ex- congress-CM , is nothing but a picnic gathering after isolation suffered due to corona restrictions for so many months. They are there with full picnic gears. They cook food, have drink or two and sing Punjabi Pop. And pro- dynasty supporter raise anti-Modi slogans to keep facade of protests. Most of so-called farmers don t even know the pros ans cons of the legislations they are opposing. And on media channels dedicated groups of so-called left liberals see another opportunity to attack Modi government after failed crusade against CAA. There is nothing to worry about. we Indian people resort to such events every two-three years with usual lapse of memory of those events. 2021, 2022 may see another agitation on some other topic to continue tradition of PROTEST BY OPPOSITION parties remain in limelight .
