The hallowed-but-hackneyed Vishwaguru stature has been dented by Trump’s impetuousness. Events in neighbouring countries don’t offer any solace either.
Drunk on the Kool-Aid of India’s imminent Vishwaguru status and the Madison Square Garden rallies, we’re convinced that our obnoxious behaviour will be accepted wherever we go.
Speaking to ThePrint, the BJP leader & RSS member also highlights changing global order & India's need to invest in research & tech in a world where wars are no longer fought on the ground.
In a world of multiple conflicts, India’s call for peace must not be timid diplomacy, but a bold humanitarian appeal to prevent a catastrophe that could spiral into World War III.

Some of the shining may have lost, but Modi still shines. There’s hardly any leader on world stage who was successful in keeping inflation in tight control, even after Covid. India could have benefitted more only if he could resist the temptation of becoming ‘ world leader ‘ . While incessantly criticizing Nehru on many issues, Modi tried to be present day Nehru. The other issue is his preference for retired bureaucrats as ministers. May be, he is following the ideas in the book written by his friend for which Mr. Modi had written preface.
There won’t be any repositioning, it will be the same freebies, subsidies, reservations, loan waivers, ‘protecting farmers’, and torturing non farmers.
