After facing severe backlash for inviting Steve Bannon, Donald Trump’s former adviser, to the New Yorker literary festival, the magazine dropped him.
Many argue that...
The author of the bestselling Shiva Trilogy said that Indian scriptures are far more liberal than we think, but society has forgotten what they stood for.
Sceptics might argue that popping pills is a simpler solution for mental health issues, but there’s growing evidence that the 'opium of the masses' is worth a serious shot.
With an educated & skilled workforce, Tamil Nadu has a burgeoning industrial sector which has scored massive investments in automobiles, electronics, and even footwear.
The ‘idea’ Kejriwal's politics grew around was a no-holds-barred fight against corruption. That is the reason Modi govt has now tarred him and his entire party with the same paint.
I have wondered for a long time why media calls a person as liberal when all of his actions are illiberal and others as an illiberal and communal with no supporting behaviour . Does a person passes a test to be called a liberal? As far as I know there is no such test. It looks there is a virtual club whose members are labelled as liberals. Subhasis Ghosh has rightly said that the so called liberals’ behaviour is stunningly very illiberal.
Regarding PB Mehta, I have yet not developed the intelligence to make any meaning of his statements. How can a person be selected as VC of a university If the person can’t even express with clarity? But he is member of the liberals’ club. With this membership, PBM automatically get the tag of liberal and intellectual. Though he is neither liberals nor intellectual. It’s not rare or occasional but most of the time, the so called liberals are so mad on their stand that they are not even willing to hear a contrary point of view.
As Farooq Zakaria said couple of years ago, liberals are rhe most illiberal of them all with a huge sense of being right and completely intolerant of the opposite view. Think of all the journalists like Barkha Dutt, Rajdeep Sardesai, Siddhant Vardharajan, Arti Jeerath etc. They have been trying to drive their ideology and agenda over many years and decades. They have failed. Have you seen them do an honest mea culpa? I have been writing in the Discus section of The Wire for ages. My stance is usually against the editorial line of The Wire. Very very rarely have my comments got published. How liberal is that?
Wow, this guy seems to think that throwing in a lot of mumbo jumbo jargon can be passed off as “intellectualism.” I have no clue what he is trying to say. The one thing I know is that the leftists of India have been committing a cultural genocide on Hindus for a century in the name of secularism and systematically relegated Hindus to second class status. They took control of our temples, cynically divided us on every fault line, did everything possible to erase our cultural identity and deliberately distorted our history and textbooks to manufacture a false identify for us. The so-called Indian liberals are no liberals, they are fascists calling themselves liberals. But PBM and his clan should remember this – there is a new India rising and waking up to this monumental fraud and crime committed on them. Merchants of treachery like PBM will be washed away in the tsunami of awakened Hindus that is rising all over India.
So intellectually bankrupt are Indian leftist that even in 2019 they need a signal from Russia ( Putin ) to know that liberalism is dead. Fortunately India has strong cultural roots which these Leftist Sickular could not destroy in last 70 years. Now that the yoke of Leftist Sickular bandwagon is no more, the path to egalitarian society will be easier as neither leftist nor mid eastern philosophy can destract Indians.

I have no clue of what Mehta is saying. Equating Citizenship with Membership. Is he sane?
Liberal ! Who ?
