কি করে? দিল্লিতে কি বিজেপি সরকার নেই? @MamataOfficial

Iranian has rejected ALL US demands & is refusing to show up in 🇵🇰 to meet JD Vance for peace talks. So much for Indian liberals who were swooning over Pakistan “scoring a victory” over India. In other news both Saudi Arabia and the UAE have demanded full loan repayment by 🇵🇰

A desperate cry from a Mamata sympathizer whose last resort, the Supreme Court has failed them. So now he abuses the Hon’ble Supreme Court in a roundabout way for refusing them the very relief they petitioned the Court for! Five states are going to polls, and that includes fiery anti-BJP parties in power such as DMK. Yet no state is crying itself hoarse against SIR and calling the Election Commission unprintable names. Only Trinamool Congress! Why? To get the answer study the body language of Mamata Banerjee and the geography of West Bengal. Watch her desperation. SIR first removed 58 lakhs of mostly dead, duplicate, fictitious or moved-away voters, which Mamata could not object to. It proved that SIR was NECESSARY. Meanwhile desperate petitioning the Courts started in a bid to stop the next step of SIR which would exclude the Bangladeshis and Rohingiyas. Now the shit hit the fan and the Supremo donned a black gown and appeared before their Lordships. She knew their Lordships won’t be swayed but the electorate just might. In fact the Supreme Court has bared their irritation and said, don’t we have any other business except the West Bengal polls? Supreme Court’s involvement in the poll nitty-gritties is not out of any interest in the subject; IT IS OUT OF EXASPERATION with Mamata’s frenzied attempts to prevent the deletion of her spurious voters. The next step is violence, which we have seen in Mothabari. In between, the Court has reprimanded Government of West Bengal for not letting the Kolkata Metro progress by refusing to block the Chingrighata location. She is scared to approach the Courts now. Hence, violence!

Wrong. NIA is doing it.

When @SuvenduWB was signing before final submission of his nomination form I spotted a nice fountain pen, wondered where did he get it, then he handed the pen back to its owner @SamikBJP , the owner. Nice pen dear @SamikBJP.

There is a certain genre of writing that substitutes accusation for argument. It begins by assigning motive, then arranges facts,real, distorted, or imagined, to fit that conclusion. The recent commentary on my views on India-Pakistan relations follows that familiar script. Let me state the essentials clearly. To argue that India must combine deterrence with engagement is NOT to diminish the reality of terrorism, nor to excuse it. It is to recognise how serious nations manage adversaries. India has, across governments and decades, done precisely this, responding firmly to terror while retaining channels of communication where necessary to prevent escalation and miscalculation. This is not sentimentality. It is statecraft. The suggestion that engagement grants “impunity” rests on a false binary, that one must either talk or act. In practice, states do both. To collapse that complexity into a moral accusation may make for forceful prose, but it does not make for sound policy. The caricature of a women’s caucus is equally misplaced. It is not proposed as a substitute for national policy, nor as a solution to entrenched conflict. It is a modest Track II initiative, one of many possible avenues, to widen dialogue, reduce hostility, and explore areas where cooperation may still be possible. Such efforts do not require approval from those who see every form of engagement as capitulation. Invoking the suffering of victims of terrorism to argue against any form of dialogue is particularly troubling. Their loss demands seriousness, not rhetorical deployment. Accountability is not strengthened by narrowing the space for thought. The claim that an idea is discredited because it is welcomed by a Pakistani voice is also a curious standard. If the merit of an argument is to be judged by who agrees with it, then independent judgment itself is surrendered. Ideas must stand or fall on their own logic. Beyond the rhetoric lies a more fundamental question: what is India’s end game with Pakistan? If it is to reduce Pakistan to rubble, that is fantasy dressed up as toughness. It is not going to happen, and any attempt to move in that direction would risk catastrophe for the entire region, not least for India. Nuclear geography is a stern schoolmaster. It does not indulge chest-thumping. The real end game has to be containment, deterrence, internal strengthening, and selective engagement. In plain words: India’s objective should be to make Pakistan’s use of terror too costly to sustain, while preventing the relationship from sliding into permanent uncontrolled escalation. That means four things. First, raise the cost of terrorism. Through intelligence, border management, diplomatic isolation where warranted, calibrated military response when necessary, and relentless exposure of the infrastructure of proxy violence. No illusions there. Second, deny Pakistan veto power over India’s future. We should not let our growth, our diplomacy, our regional ambitions, or our internal confidence be held hostage by a single hostile neighbour. The greatest strategic answer to Pakistan is a stronger, more cohesive, more prosperous India. Third, manage the conflict, not romanticise it. There will be no grand reconciliation in the near term. But neither can every interaction be reduced to rage. Ceasefire mechanisms, back channels, water safeguards, crisis hotlines, and limited functional engagement are not signs of softness. They are instruments of control. Fourth, keep open the possibility of a different future without betting on it. That is where dialogue belongs. Not as wishful thinking, not as “aman ki asha” balloon releases, but as disciplined statecraft. You talk not because you trust, but because you must understand, signal, warn, probe, and occasionally de-escalate. So the end game is not rubble. It is a Pakistan that is deterred, constrained, denied easy success, and unable to derail India’s future. Fury is a mood. It is not a policy.

Sulekha was popular in Eastern Region, West Bengal in partucular.

Are you sane?

Does this mean once @MamataOfficial loses in Bhabanipur, tally of @AITCofficial will be zero in 2026?

Rightly said. Hope @MahuaMoitra follows @virsanghvi

What nonsense @MahuaMoitra. Gandhiji and Sardar Patel both were Gujratis.

Really!!!

It is a matter of concern that officials claiming to represent the @ECISVEEP are selectively removing BJP flags & posters from private properties in the Rashbehari constituency of South Kolkata. At the same time, Trinamool publicity material is left undisturbed. This has happened in the past 2 days in Wards 86 & 89. The idea is to make locals believe that the TMC stranglehold over the electoral process continues. Please treat this as a formal complaint.

দেখছিলাম প্রিয়াঙ্কা তিব্রেওয়াল এর ক্যাম্পেন। মেয়েটির পরিস্কার কথা হাতের তালুর মত এন্টালী চেনে। আমার তো মনে হয় সবার উচিত প্রিয়াঙ্কা কে ভোট দেওয়া। @impriyankabjp @Bjp_Debjit

মাথা খারাপ হলে এরকম বলে।

Much appreciate @DrSukantaBJP for his cool responses to an abrasive anchor of #Z24 , who was impolite to say the least.

Saw a clip of interview of @DrSukantaBJP by certain female of Z24 Bangla news. The anchor was impolite to say the least. Politicians and others should tell her in no uncertain terms to behave as did late Pranabbabu on occasions. #Sukantababu take note.

You.

Dear @AITCofficial members feel sorry for you. But you will see any exigency will be handled efficiently as is done elsewhere in the country. Sad that your party cannot make any gain from this. Sympathy for @RijuDutta2
