If PM Modi had launched ‘surgical’ and air strikes to punish Pakistan in 2016 and 2019, his ministers are now outdoing him in pounding China with verbal strikes.
A knee jerk disruption in trade ties will hurt Indian businesses, especially at a time when the economy is beginning to re-adjust to the new normal of Covid-19.
The 9 years saw diplomatic wrangling, a defiant Indian general keen on 'teaching the Chinese a lesson' & a PM more inclined towards diplomacy, but not a single drop of blood.
RSS leader Suresh Bhaiyyaji Joshi says this is a good opportunity for India to fulfil Atmanirbhar Bharat vision, PM Modi's call for self-reliance will help country realise its aspirations.
In an exclusive interview to ThePrint, National Security Advisory Board Chairman P.S. Raghavan talked about the Galwan Valley clash and the way forward for India & China.
Maha Vir Chakra recipient Colonel (retd) Sonam Wangchuk, who fought the Kargil War in 1999, also says Army should prioritise deploying local Ladakhis in LAC region.
Recommendations appear in Niti Aayog’s Tax Policy Working Paper Series–II. It says there is a need to shift away from fear-based enforcement to trust-based governance.
In service with the British military since 2019, it is also known as the Martlet missile. Ukrainians have also deployed these missiles against Russian troops.
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.
Turning a comment here or a comment there into chest thumping is the business of media. Just imagine media writing about or transmitting discourses
on , Gita, Bible, etc. and we will find all the media in MANREGA.
We enjoy RaGa why not the others? This was one economic activity which kept the jobs going even during the lock down.
The article is a personal opinion of course unsaid approved under the editorial policy of The Print. A look at the thesis presented bears all the signs of anti-Modi baiters and unseemly use of the word “chest thumping” first being used by anti-Vajpayee journalists, Congress-ites, Deve Gowda following a successful Pokhran II explosion. Ripples were expected but it set a formulation for aggressive Indian diplomacy of shutting the mouths enough for Bill Clinton to assign a special representative to discuss the issue with India. Having said so, the repeat use of the phrase is a signature that whoever the artful author is, he is paid to say things and its anybody’s guess as to how the recalcitrant media symbolised by the mindset of Lutyens Delhi. Let’s analyse the content. One what is the problem? Galwan, vacation of Galwan by China, India’s unpreparedness to counter China, or Modi’s near war cry at Ladakh facing Tibet without naming either China and of course by implication Pakistan? Why is Paksitan not a part of the equation in the affair? Two, is it alleged that such an event such as June 15th standoff at Galwan did not work in India’s favour? Is it alleged that we should learn to watch our tongues? Is it alleged that we have a culture of submissive to China? Three, if these aspects have been representatively established what is the single (or say I mathematically call it singular) point of worry?
Any discerning reader should analyse the thesis and know why the author is a failed writer leave alone whatever be his status as a journalist. Dump it in the bin!
In the aftermath of the Pulwama attack, The Caravan Magazine published an article giving details of the caste of the dead soldiers and trying to make a point that upper caste people, who are apparently in the forefront of the Hindutva movement, were not enough in numbers for those dying for the country. By the same stretch of logic The Caravan should write an article on the death of our soldiers in Galwan, give a break up on their religious beliefs and point out that people who were recently in the forefront of reading the preamble to the constitution during the anti CAA protests were conspicuous by their absence there.
Mr Haresh Makhani : Since when did opposition parties of the BJP become traitors? Is the Trinamool a party of traitors? The DMK ? Telugu Desam party ? MNS ? Care to elaborate and draw up a comprehensive list of traitors according to you and your lathi wielding shakha friends?
Trinamool is traitor party i am a Bengali we know how the TMC runs by receiving funds from jamaat organization in Bangladesh
it is matter of regert that many minister in cabinet are unnessesarily giving their views, they are more trouble maker than anybody else and what they know what is gioing in p m mind. they just want to come to media, they are doing more harm than good.. i think only pm and max defense minister should speak on subject and all others are advised to keep their mouth shut.
When a nation’s majority believes in a monologue directed by the govt, irrespective of accountability & responsibility, it is a sure sign of autocracy setting in. The backing of the defense will be an icing on the cake.
More than the chest thumping ministers it is the chest thumping media.Watching Arnab Goswamy,Rahul Sivasankar, Navika Kumar, Anand Narasimhan etc one has got to be convinced that China will be kicked out tomorrow.It is a pathetic scene to see BJP spokesmen claiming that not one inch has been conceded to China. Deception. Now another phenomenon.Newly found love and sympathy for Muslims and also Christians who are” persecuted” in China. All these years after watching what is being perpetrated back here. At least in this aspect Modi and are comrade in arms
The China border incident may cause no lasting harm to the PM and he may also perhaps get his dearest wish fulfilled of a 3rd consecutive electoral victory at the national level. The harm is going to accrue to the RSS. Similar to how the right-wing blames Nehru for all his blunders without taking into account circumstances prevailing during Nehru’s times, so will the blame for all of present day blunders be put on the head of RSS when the Modi era passes. For today’s right-wing will be replaced by more rabid groups in the future and the circus will continue.
Poor India and poor Indians have suffered in the past and will continue to suffer in the future due to inept govt run on the basis of failed politics and failed economics.
At the end of the day, you are a anointed a leader not for your excuses, it is your leadership. To that extent, not being able to handle his own party is the worst failure of its kind. If you could not as a leader of your party rally them around your ideas and a consensus, it tells me Nehru did something seriously wrong. I am not knowledgeable on how he did or conducted his affairs. However, from Shekar’s you tube video, it seems like he had no clue. Why would you send Chinese to talk to the hawkish clowns of your party? Is that the right thing to do? So much for being a democrat. It is one thing to let your party men and your cabinet have a say in the matter. It is another thing to follow their foot steps when it is not in the interest of the nation. If Nehru thought so, that makes his exacerbation even worse. He just could not handle the pressure of the JOB….. So PLEASE.. stop making the excuses….
How can China be an irritant in dealing with China?
Congress IS China. Congress is China’s agent in India.

Who is more loyal to the PM syndrome probably.
