Narendra Modi has moved to soothe Biden-Harris but if the past is any guide, the President-elect and his VP-elect's worldview may be radically different.
Kashmir resolution lists security challenges faced by India in J&K but also urges govt to refrain from use of force against peaceful protesters and those detained.
India's foreign minister S. Jaishankar had cancelled a meeting with the US House Foreign Affairs Committee on 18 December after Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal's names was added to the list.
S. Jaishankar cancels meeting with US lawmakers after they refused to exclude Pramila Jayapal, who has introduced a resolution urging India to lift restrictions in Kashmir.
Pramila Jayapal, the Indian-American Congresswoman, introduced a resolution last week urging India to end the ‘remaining’ restrictions in Jammu and Kashmir.
In May 1974, RSS chief Madhukar Dattatraya Deoras spoke at a lecture series in Pune about caste-based discrimination and social equality within the Hindu fold.
SEBI probe concluded that purported loans and fund transfers were paid back in full and did not amount to deceptive market practices or unreported related party transactions.
While the IAF remains committed to the Tejas programme and has placed orders for 180 Tejas Mk1A, the force is eagerly waiting for the Tejas Mk 2 version.
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 whole episode shows the pathetic weakness and lack of self esteem of ‘the Hindu nationalists’. It is highly unprofessional and unbecoming of a PM of a country to express publicly a preference for one candidate over another, in a different country. I am referring to our chai wallah simpering abki baar, Trump sarkar. No other country has shown such a weakness.
Before the election, I was getting Whats App posts from Hindus simpering like Modi about Trump. After the election, there is pin drop silence from them. Various RSS supported candidates like Tulsi Gabbard and Preston Kulkarni did not make it. For the last 20 years, the RSS has infiltrated their supporters abroad without opposition. But because of the attacks they have perpetrated on Muslims and Christians in India, India’s minorities and anti fascist Hindus abroad have got together to block them. Now the RSS sponsored candidates do not have a free run. If you are a RSS sponsored candidate, the fascist baggage will be a liability.
Modi has congratulated Biden but he must realise that although US may need India for China, attacks on minorities in India will not go unnoticed. Harris and Pramila Jayapal know what is going on and will not be Modi’s fan club.
The author writes ‘But Delhi can still take heart. China’s Xi Jinping has still not congratulated Biden or Harris’ – as if China is sulking !
Whereas China is following diplomatic protocol and will wait till Biden becomes President (at the moment, he is President Elect). That is how great powers behave – the Chinese do not need to touch anyone’s feet for sympathy. The Hindus on the other hand run after one candidate because he has given licence for their wickedness and when that does not work out, they run to touch the feet of the other in case he is annoyed. India does not behave like a power, and stems from this Hindutva mentality of the BJP.
I have lived in India all my life , travelled well across the country but I never came across events like ‘ atrocities on muslims ‘ infact I have seen many atrocities happening on Dalit Hindus by different religious sectors of society that includes Hindus ,Muslims n Christians .It’s sad that you are so full of poison for the country that you are not backing off to even praise china , a country that has never supported india n is famously killing Uighur muslims in their own country. Slow clap to u man !
but he must realise that although US may need India for China, attacks on minorities in India will not go unnoticed. Harris and Pramila Jayapal know what is going on and will not be Modi’s fan club.
India will not be taken for ride by US the way Saddam Hussein was taken for ride in US fighting with Iran. India will simply ask what is in for us to help US fight India. First thing is forget the nonsense of minority issues in India.
India should tell us :” If you love them so much take them in US. We have no objections if all member of our minority are getting US immigration. We will watch with our hands folded when members of new immigrant Muslims slit throats of some Americans.”
I wish to make the following points:
1. there is NO maltreatment of india’s muslim citizens as suggested by the author.
2. we can the importance of CAA from what is happening in france and other european countries.
3. we cannot afford to role back article 370 and 35A if we want peace in the country.
4. Lastly Modi Govt. is definitely not so spineless to determine our internal policies based on what biden-harris will think.
It is time to tell Americans to keep their nose out of where it does not belong.
No domestic politics in foreign policy. No personal relations in global diplomacy. The sanctity of those basic postulates should be restored. 2. In the case of America, rethinking the role of the diaspora. Not to be used as a diplomatic asset. They should be encouraged to invest in India, in manufacturing and services. The Chinese diaspora made a tremendous contribution to its economic transformation. Ms Nisha Biswal would know both the promise and the heartbreak of doing business with India. There should be more talk – and not talk alone – of $ 500 billion two way trade. Not Pakistan – China all the time. 3. Shortly after 5th August 2019, the US Embassy had put out a statement, urging restoration of statehood. That would be a good step forward. 4. President Biden will not need to read the newspapers, watch TV, to know what is happening in the world. If he does, he will struggle to find a kind word about India,
By now, we all know that only Jyoti can write such articles and SG is happily allowing her to publish them. Like Netanyahu, Modi could have kept a message for Trump, though this is never the practice. We have CAA/NRC coming up soon and perhaps, declaring India as Hindu Rashtra by changing the Art 1 of the Constitution and we certainly do not want USA to be the pain in the neck. Dealing with China should not be an issue as USA itself needs India’s help against China. Other issues will remain broadly on similar level.
Not an issue … Breakfast in Lhasa, lunch in Wuhan, drinks in Shanghai, dinner in the Forbidden City.
Bottom line is US need India more than India need US. India can get weapons from Russia. US does not have any ally matching Chinese manpower & size. So India should blunt and tell Jaipal, Harris etc. anti-Indians with Indian origin, to get lost.
We should not be racists. Indian blood should no mean much if they are anti-India or anti-Hindu. We prefer Americans without non-Indian blood, who are pro-India, person like Tulsi Gabrd.. she is also photogenic as opposed to ghastly Pamela Jaipal.
Former US President – kitni dil ko thandak pahunchti hai.
