Ravi Sharma

@Jairam_Ramesh while you hv chosen not to explain your relentless bidding for Huawei’s interest and indulged in whataboutery. Let me answer your questions 1. Yes Huawei commissioned its R and D centre at Bangalore during Vajpayee’s regime but the then govt kept serious vigil 1/2

Supreme Court Judge Ahsanuddin Amanullah - "There's reason why women offer namaz at home" "A reason for Islam to prefer women offering namaz at home is that if every adult of a family goes to a mosque to offer namaz, who will take care of the children?" - SC JUDGE

Arvind Kejriwal’s recusal application against Justice Swarnkanta Sharma is not a legitimate legal move. It is a brazen endeavour to scandalise the very due process of justice. Instead of challenging her order issuing notice on the CBI’s revision petition before the Supreme Court (an avenue available to every litigant under law), he has resorted to seeking her recusal. If you are aggrieved by an appealable order, you file an appeal, you do not run a campaign to transfer or disqualify the judge whose order you dislike. That is not a demand for justice, that is intimidation. Let us be clear, Justice Swarnkanta Sharma’s court is the designated Special Court for MP/MLA cases. It is the only court that is supposed to hear Arvind Kejriwal’s matter – exactly as it would for any other Member of Parliament or Legislative Assembly. There is nothing extraordinary here; it is the law. The Supreme Court of India has itself mandated fast-track hearingsin all cases involving MPs and MLAs. The timelines fixed for hearing the CBI’s revision petition against Kejriwal’s discharge in the Liquor Scam case are therefore not “hasty” – they are in complete consonance with the apex court’s mandate for speedy justice in such matters. Justice Swarnkanta Sharma’s credentials speak louder than any propaganda. She became a Magistrate at the tender age of 24, a Sessions Judge at 35, and rose to the High Court after nearly 30 years of impeccable, blemish-free judicial service. The absurd propaganda that she would be biased because her son and daughter are empanelled as panel counsel for the Union of India holds no water. The Government of India is the largest litigant in the country and empanels hundreds of lawyers. Most High Court judges have, at some point, been government counsel – yet they routinely pass strong orders against the government. Professional engagement of family members with the government bar does not create bias; it is a baseless smear. And the latest desperate claim – that because she attended seminars organised by Adhivakta Parishad, she is “ideologically inclined” towards RSS? Even the Chief Justice of India has attended such seminars. Yet Kejriwal never sought the CJI’s recusal. In fact, it was the bench of Justice Suryakant that granted him bail in the very same Liquor Scam cases. Selective outrage, anyone? The vicious Twitter campaign against Justice Sharma is nothing short of an attack on the independence of the judiciary. A judge who has served with honour for three decades is being maligned simply because she is doing her duty without fear or favour. judiciary cannot be held to ransom by political pressure or social media mobs.

Finally Justice Yashwant Varma has resigned - a year after that fateful fire in his outhouse. It is a tragedy that a judge with a once enviable reputation for integrity and intellect and seemingly destined for elevation to the Apex Court did not resign in March last year itself. His belated resignation comes in the wake of a damning report of a 3-judge inquiry, 2 inevitable rebuffs by the Supreme Court of misconceived petitions filed by him in that Court and impeachment proceedings in Parliament that were closing in on him. While he was undoubtedly entitled to all that due process afforded him, he would have served his own cause and particularly that of the noble institution he was a part of by resigning at the earliest given the very stark circumstances of the case. Without being invidious, it is significant that Justice Varma resigned soon after the accession of Justice Surya Kant to the office of Chief Justice Of India: the latter has revealed a steely determination to wipe clean the judiciary’s Augean stables. The next step is to expose and punish those lawyer fixers in the legal system who have made a career for themselves by knowing the judge rather than the law, those whose palms they have greased or subverted in other ways, the powerful Godfather who appoints judges prone to bribery and finally that shadowy figure who provides the financial and other wherewithal that destroys judicial conscience and renders the courts a playground for gamers, sharks and HAWALA operators.

He was in jail on Deepavali day. All because he took on Ambanis in business. A clear abuse of state machinery to settle business competition. This is one of the episodes that triggered Indian express group to begin exposing Ambani Congress nexus.

And then Ram Jethmalani sued @Swamy39 for defamation and damages and Delhi high court while ruling in favor of Mr. Jethmalani, awarded ₹5 lakh in damages against Subramanian Swamy for malicious, false, and defamatory remarks. Swamy later personally apologised to Ram Jethmalani.

@jgopikrishnan70 Was Jethmalani that close to Khashoggi ?

Issue is-In Parliament, Swamy showed photo of Jethmalani dancing with defense dealer AdnanKhashoggi's wife. Jethmalani lost temper&said-Rascal, you stole this photo from my home. If courage tell publicly. Swamy said-Tomorrow in Press Club-From there this Defamation case started😎

A Torpedo in India’s Backyard: Why the U.S. Strike Looks Like An Unfriendly Act The U.S. torpedoing of the Iranian frigate IRIS Dena in India’s maritime backyard is more than a battlefield event; it is a strategic embarrassment for New Delhi. The ship had just participated in India’s flagship MILAN-2026 naval exercise, where, along with 18 other foreign warships, it sailed as a diplomatic guest of the Indian Navy. By sinking a vessel returning from an Indian-hosted multilateral exercise, Washington effectively turned India’s maritime neighborhood into a war zone, raising uncomfortable questions about India’s authority in its own backyard. In diplomatic terms, the strike violated the unwritten code of naval hospitality. Attacking a ship immediately after it leaves a host’s waters is widely seen as a slight to that host. The message to participating navies is stark: attending India’s exercises may not guarantee safety once they sail away. The implications go deeper. Prime Minister Modi’s MAHASAGAR vision — positioning India as the Indian Ocean’s “preferred security partner” — rests on the idea that New Delhi can convene cooperation and maintain stability in the region. The U.S. strike shattered that image by demonstrating that a distant power can employ lethal force in India’s maritime backyard without coordination. Worse, the attack occurred near Sri Lanka, just south of India’s maritime boundary, precisely the space India hopes to keep insulated from Middle Eastern wars. Instead, the Indian Ocean suddenly looks like an extension of that conflict. The result is a jarring paradox: Washington may see the torpedoing as legitimate wartime action against an enemy vessel, but from New Delhi’s vantage point it was an unfriendly act — one that undermined India’s diplomacy, its convening power and its claim to regional maritime leadership. In one torpedo strike, American hard power has punctured India’s carefully cultivated soft power.

One detail from this Iran war should make every serious state sit up: credible reporting says Israeli leaders were shown an image of Khamenei’s body after it was recovered by Mossad agents - and that Israel had visibility on his fate faster than Iran could even confirm the death of it's supreme leader and shape the narrative. That’s not “tech”. That’s HUMINT + penetration. Satellites don’t tell you who is in which room at what time. Signals don’t always survive encryption and discipline. What wins you wars and prevents surprises is human access so-urces, moles, defectors, recruited assets - the messy, thankless work of being inside the enemy’s bloodstream. Israel has no luxury of being lazy at intelligence. It sits in a hostile neighbourhood with actors who openly want it erased. So it builds networks that aren’t “near the border.” They’re near the decision-makers. That’s what survival looks like when geography is unforgiving. Now bring that lens to India. When you live next to Pakistan’s terror ecosystem and a Bangladesh theatre that keeps throwing up radical modules, you don’t get to be sentimental about “soft power” as a substitute for hard intelligence. You need early warning, deep penetration, counter-infiltration, and ruthless disruption - before the plot becomes a headline. And this is exactly where the armchair moralists fail India. They love questioning operations after the fact. They hate the boring investments before the fact: intel budgets, source protection, language capability, field tradecraft, inter-agency fusion, and the political spine to back covert work without leaking it for TRPs. Pop culture and superhit movies like Dhurandhar tells the story really well but makes it look stylish - one hero, one mission, one punchline. Real HUMINT though is the opposite: years of patience, ugly risks, zero credit, and often no medal because the best outcome is “nothing happened.” This is not about chest-thumping. This is about statecraft. The world is moving into an age where wars are decided by who sees first, knows first, and shapes first. Israel gets that. India must get that - permanently. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi and our intelligence apparatus, NEW INDIA definitely gets it. Because 'terrorist harbouring neighbours' don’t send calendar invites before they strike. They send handlers, money, propaganda, and sleepers. The only answer is being inside that machinery early enough to break it. If you want deterrence, stop thinking intelligence is an accessory. It’s the foundation.

Truth is a valid Defence, more so when its meant for larger public good.

@UnSubtleDesi It’s not cringe by any standard. It’s cute

Someone please tell me those cringe text messages aren’t real 🤮

This witty comment in a speech recently by honourable Justice Vikram Nath makes one wonder about the USP of Delhi’s HYATT HOTEL. While the owners of the HYATT HOTEL - an entity know as Asian Hotels (North) Pvt Ltd - is also in the news for the it’s ability to obtain a sweetheart one-time settlement (OTS) from two public sector banks for its loans gone sour. The Supreme Court has already questioned: 'Why You Didn't Go For Auction When NCR Property Prices Rising?' But what is very interesting is the identity of HYATT / ASIAN HOTELS true owners is shrouded in mystery. Credible rumours suggest that he is a foreign passport holder who make secret visits to India and slips in and out of India very often with impunity. The big questions are: ❓Who owns the HYATT HOTEL in DELHI? ❓What happens at the HYATT HOTEL in DELHI?

A man who has never negotiated an FTA, never built supply chains, never grown exports, suddenly discovers doomsday scenarios the moment India signs the largest trade pact in its history. Jairam Ramesh's histrionics, his lack of trade economics knowledge, his bumbling habit of confusing negotiating leverage with capitulation is well known. But his 'concern' isn’t actually “concern”; it’s ideological hostility to India’s rise. It’s compulsive obstruction performed faithfully for his political master, Rahul Gandhi and their main master George Soros. Tariff reductions are phased, sensitive sectors are protected, standards are negotiated into advantage, and CBAM isn’t a surprise sprung overnight - it’s a known instrument being countered through diversification, value-addition, and parallel diplomacy. Every serious economic power upgrades to compete; only Congress wants India fossilised so it can keep crying “risk”. Only someone allergic to growth pretends otherwise. Why is the world calling this the 'mother of all deals'? Because it links two billion consumers, restores long-term tariff certainty after GSP withdrawal, opens EU markets to India’s core strengths - pharma, IT, engineering, textiles - and anchors India into global value chains as Europe recalibrates away from dependence elsewhere. This is strategic trade, not street-corner sloganeering. What’s truly tragic is this: India’s growth terrifies its own Opposition. While Europe, Canada, New Zealand and the rest of world queues up to partner with India, Congress queues up to talk India down. One is entitled to ask - whose interests are being served and whose brief is Jairam Ramesh really carrying? Because it certainly isn’t India’s.

The IMF's glowing report on India's surging economy reveals the real 'Hindu rate of growth' – not the stagnant 3-4% of the past, but a robust 6-7% driven by innovation, resilience, and the leadership under dharmadhwaj held tightly by PM Modi. How ironic that the Congress governments once peddled their policy failures as the 'Hindu rate' to scapegoat Hinduism's supposed fatalism, while today's leadership unleashes our true potential, making India a global powerhouse.

Boka @advsanjoy these questions have nothing to do with you being a Bengali or @JethmalaniM being a Sindhi. Ed is led by a Bihari IRS officer, as is West Bengal police.

Did that illegal immigrant docking in Lampedusa really just bring a sheep along with him? His wife maybe?

So the casual racism against Indians as “takers” or “burdens” is not just ugly, it’s false. Indians are net contributors wherever they go. Data released by President Trump @realDonaldTrump shows Indian immigrants don’t even feature among top welfare recipients in America. As I never tire of saying: Indians are a blessing to the nations they live in, and the numbers prove it. Indians contribute more than they consume, pay the highest taxes, and build economies rather than drain them. No handouts, no freeloading. The pattern repeats globally. In Germany, Indians earn the highest average wages - €5,400 a month - well above native Germans and other foreign nationals. That isn’t accident or privilege; it’s skill, education, discipline and relentless work ethic. Therefore to the casual racism against Indians by pretentious dimwits : “burdens” don’t top income charts. Remember this - facts don’t care for bigotry, and the data will keep humiliating them.

🔥🎯She was exactly right... @ChanelRion: Venezuela isn’t some “independent” nation. We’re not sending 10k troops and 8 warships over drug dealers. Trump is going after CHINA. Trump’s Venezuela offensive is a THIRD BLOW to Xi: Iran - Gaza - Venezuela…

China once again was the biggest loser in the flawlessly executed Venezuela operation as it could only helplessly watch the airlifting of its closest ally Maduro & do nothing about it. It is fast gaining the reputation of an unreliable partner

The United Nations has become largely ineffective in enforcing resolutions amid ongoing global conflicts. It is now redundant. World powers are in expansionist mode. U.S. capture of President Maduro, has created a free for all situation, where nations will feel compelled to jump on to the bandwagon. This environment may prompt China may seize this opportunity to pursue its Taiwan cause. While, India should prioritise restraint but at the same time it should also explore right opportunity to secure and expand the Siliguri Corridor for strategic stability. #Geopolitics #UN #NicolasMaduro #Venezuela #Taiwan

Power, and the ability to exercise it, is enough legal cover…rest is all claptrap

We Indians are attaching far too much importance to the motivated utterances of Zohran Mamdani. He is a creature of ideological patronage, not conviction - whose worldview he parrots without gravitas or independent thought. He is their puppet and he owes his election to them - to Soros, the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas. His borrowed outrage, however, has now crossed a line. And two of his recent interventions demand a firm response. First, his remarks on the Gujarat riots reflect either rank ignorance or open contempt for the Supreme Court of India, which categorically exonerated Prime Minister Modi and exposed the allegations as a case of false implication driven by political opponents. Disagreeing is one thing; disregarding the country’s highest court is quite another. Second, his letter expressing “empathy” for Umar Khalid crosses a clear red line. It amounts to encouragement of an undertrial accused of serious offences involving sedition and terror-linked activity. That is not free speech - it is reckless legitimisation of anti-India elements. Both statements warrant a proportionate and lawful response: revoke his OCI status after following due process. The inevitable 'tukde-tukde' legal brigade will rush to his defence and please let them. Judicial scrutiny will only expose them, and their client, for what they are: apologists and instruments of external forces determined to undermine India’s institutions and its rising, unstoppable global stature.
