The Italian term sprezzatura—a studied nonchalance that conceals intention—best captures the spirit of Trump’s foreign policy so far. The pattern is unpredictability, transactionalism, and disruption as diplomacy.
With 20.2 percent of its total loans in default by the end of last year, Bangladesh had the weakest banking system in Asia. Despite reforms, it will take time to recover.
This world is being restructured and redrawn by one man, and what’s his power? It’s not his formidable military. It’s trade. With China, it turned on him.
THE PRACHARK OATH OF LOYALTY
———————————————-
I swear by Jai Shree Ram this holy oath,
That I want to offer unconditional obedience to the RSS, the Hindu Rashtra and Hindu People,
And unconditional obedience to Narendra Modi, the commander-in-chief of India’s Armed Forces
AND be prepared as a brave soldier to risk my life for Narendra Modi, the RSS and the Hindu Rashtra at any time.
—————————————————-
Panag this glorious oath should be administered to all ranks forthwith.
Special ceremonial parades to be held for this Kasam sworn directly to the Pracharak
The presence of a Pundit and Bhagwan Gita at oath taking parades is compulsory
IMPORTANT – In no circumstances an officer lower in caste/rank then of a Brahmin, be allowed administer this oath
Haha, You are very funny, matters are leading towards this in reality .
“In the past, change of power never happened without bloodshed. The reason democracy is significant is we change power without spilling a drop of blood. If we get into a feudalistic mindset, we will once again see blood in the name of power changes”.
Crazy! In 2019 we stand on a platform that has been solidified with the leadership ( political driven by self-interested groups’/communities’ etc. decisions/executions/bottlenecks and flows of the past 70 years. Like,post 1947, if there was a Bose instead of a Nehru, what would have happened? Or, if Indira Gandhi and not Nehru had taken on the mantle of leadership earlier? Would ATALJI still compliment her as “Durga” in Parliament , post an earlier B’desh/Kashmir victory?
We cannot ignore nor fudge history. And like few commentators we cannot ridicule the current leadership w/o understanding international politics either. Foreign policy has different tactical approaches- anyone from the Army always should understand. The writer of the article is also one such a product – of our convoluted past/present gong on to the Future. Where is our national pride or balance? Analyze the chopping waters of scams etc .etc of the past. We need to identify what we want and what we must discard as good/bad best practices for our children/grandchildren. Let us not be parochial or bent in “isms” but realists for a better change- the type China is. And India can never bend it like Pakistan either- we have far better though limited achievements- through our scientists and technocrats . Eulogizing the Military may create a possible dictatorship- if such be apprehensions, let these play out then-a nation’s peoples’ gets the leadership it justifiably deserves….? Unlike America, Indians as a polity protested against the negative status quo till 1947 only. After that the ruling class became even more vicious than the British, I think. Otherwise why the cruelty and lack of growth possibilities till 2000 A.D, I wonder! Only in 21st century are we realizing our potentialities and trying to reduce the “as-is” / “to-be” gap- now we must be prepared for any consequences….article writing will not suffice. To beat Modi you have to become Modi! Can you? If not, then articulate in this democracy, but remember:- ” in the past, change of power never happened without bloodshed. The reason democracy is significant is we change power without spilling a drop of blood. If we get into a feudalistic mindset, we will once again see blood in the name of power changes.” This quote is only a forewarning…prof. partho from Far Pavilions
Being retired army general first the author needs to prove he is apolitical. What privileges such retired army officer had which they missed during last 5 years of NDA?
Adarsh Scam, Chopper scam, Bofors, Rafael congress listed L1 bidder but never placed order for want of money, and many others are gift of Congress to Nation. Congress never considered army preparedness as priority so money went to corrupt politician and other officials.
Those who benefited during congress one party rule can’t digest the nationalist leader who is out to serve country and not seeing personal or family favored.
I think we should also confront the elephant – baby, at the moment – in the room. It takes two to tango. There are signs discernible that some senior military brass have begun to sway a little in the breeze. There are many favours the political executive can bestow. It can begin to hollow out the ethos which it has taken two hundred years to create.
Andh Bhakt . Don’t see any logic. Person writing this piece is Lt Gen (Rtd.) . Try to think before writing . Same can be said about for people like you , in you love for a person you are ready to defend everything without asking any question.
No one spoke like this when Indira Gandhi attacked and divided Pakistan into two parts. Only blind haters of @narendramodi and Left liberal gang are singing this tune. Modi ji has shown the courage and chutzpah which was lacking in last 40 years. Don’t cry. Only those persons are picking holes with Prime Minister Modi who have some personal grudges against him or those people who were fattening themselves on the patronage of corrupt Congress and now feeling the ground slipping beneath their feet.
MODIJI IS A LAUGHING STOCK NOW. NO LEADER HAS SO MUCH DISGRACE TO THE COUNTRY AS MODI WHEN CHINA KICKED ON INDIA’S FACE WITH THE DEMAND THAT INDIA PROVIDE PROOF FOR AZHAR TERROR AND WITH THE 1.39 MINUTE VIDEO WHICH WAS REMOVED AFTER 97 VIEWS.FROM YOUTUBE “China is India’s friend, not a hostage to Indian nationalism’ POSTED ON 14 MARCH. THIS MAN BROGHT THE BIGGEST DIPLOMATIC DISGRACE IN INDIAN HISTORY. CHEST THUMPING ON BELAKOT OVER A WEAK PAKISTAN AND ABSOLUTE SHMEFULL SILENCE AFTER CHINA INSULT.
