Canada faces serious foreign interference issues, but these challenges must not be weaponized to unfairly target friendly and important allies like India.
In Episode 1544 of CutTheClutter, Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta looks at some top economists pointing to the pitfalls of ‘currency nationalism’ with data from 1991 to 2004.
Among 19 Indian firms sanctioned by US Treasury Dept was Lokesh Machines Ltd accused of coordinating with 'Russian defence procurement agent to import Italy-origin CNC machines'.
While we talk much about our military, we don’t put our national wallet where our mouth is. Nobody is saying we should double our defence spending, but current declining trend must be reversed.
Saudi rulers kick-starting reforms in Saudi Arabia is not the same as Indian rulers effecting reforms in the Indian Muslims. The govt could start mini Olympiads in all schools in India instead of the hocus pocus of yoga, Ayurveda, and Hindus invented plastic surgery alt beliefs. So, perhaps the majoritarian Hindu govt could first start with reforms within Hinduism – and deal with how lower castes and women are treated. The sole reason why India’s current govt is thoroughly incapable of reforming any religion is because of its lack of command on any theological discourse. It generally preaches a form of pip-Hinduism and cannot boast of any mastery over Hindu philosophy. Now imagine them trying to bring in reforms in the Muslim society, which they know zilch about. It takes great scholarship (not to mention empathy) to start reforms within own religion. I’d dread this BJP government putting its Pinocchio nose into affairs of a religion they completely don’t understand and are hell bent on misinterpreting. Let reform come from within India’s Muslim community. Let the govt encourage those efforts. It could start with not keeping quiet when some Muslims are murdered, before wading into “reforms”. All your arguments though are applicable to reforms within the Hindu community – Sabrimala, dowry harassment, Khaps, Dalit atrocities, beef bans. First reform Deviant Hindus, then train attention on others. And even Hindus need Math mini Olympiads. And certified science. Not hocus pocus science

Had written an editorial column in Dainik Jagran may 2016 on Pakistan stability.Highlightinh how there is going to be a big shift in Islamic terrorism in coming years.This going to happen not by the influence of governments but shift in the mindset of students in Islamic countries @Vimalpredictror
Very nicely summarized the Saudis reality. Only time will tell if money from Saudi to promote extremely thought in South Asia will stop or not. But nice to see change in Saudi. No power is forever, Nations, Kings and religions that ruled thousands of years are forgotten. Only humanity and co existence with nature will continue.
