So @HQ_IDS_India has deleted the tweet putting out the “documentary”. Safe to say it will no longer see the light of day. But an investigation is needed nevertheless

Hope this was not a signal for a deliberate and broader shift on Pak, as it went beyond simply stating that India should not entirely shut the window on engagement—which is fine. If not, then we only end up entrenching the old Pak Army view: escalate to bring India to the table.

Blessings from RSS for "backchannel" dialogues with Pakistan. @PTI_News Make no mistake, Hosbale speaks for Mohan Ji Bhagawat. So, "Aman ki Asha" now has support from Nagpur? What a pity. What compulsion does RSS have to support this foolish idea of track 2? @VatsRishap

Press reports fed by unnamed sources are appearing in our media about Track 2 talks being held between retired Indian generals and diplomats and their Pakistani counterparts in third countries . Lobbies, international and local, seem to be promoting such meetings and the idea of giving them publicity is to mobilise opinion in India in favour of resumption of a back channel dialogue between India and Pakistan. It is argued that these unofficial talks are filling up the vacuum created by the absence of an official level dialogue. Those behind these planted reports make the familiar arguments in favour of re- establishing channels of communication with Pakistan at some level so that trends in thinking can be assessed and potential misjudgments avoided. These Track 2 participants think they are serving a useful cause at a time when the US is rehabilitating Pakistan, Asim Munir has wormed his way into Trump’s favour, the war on terror has lost international resonance and our campaign to isolate Pakistan has failed. These re-surfacing lobbies think we should abandon the core of our policy towards Pakistan even without any signal of change in Pakistan’s core attitude towards India. They want us to become defensive because of improved US- Pakistan ties and ourselves open the doors to a dialogue with Pakistan to pre- empt US pressure. The usual defeatist attitude cloaked in pragmatic diplomacy. The idea is to dilute the message of Op Sindoor to Pakistan.

Sorry to say this @ManojNaravane is running with the hares and hunting with the hounds. He is, of course, entitled to his views as a citizen - then he should come out and join politics like @Gen_VKSingh rather than throw salvos from the sidelines for news bytes: Disappointed.

Can't believe we are back to square one! @narendramodi Govt's decisive and bold stance towards terror state Pakistan was a great departure from UPA era cowardice. Now all of a sudden we are here pretending to forget everything and starting to play the bugle of "Aman ka Tamasha". Really disheartening!

Ducked a fair and important question on the Finance minister skipping the NDB meeting in Russia. What’s the point of these pressers, if you refuse to even respond to basic questions such as these?

Thank heavens, it's not a public road. He can walk home without a bother. Outside this area, the PM must travel with a security cordon of cars sophisticated with the best equipment. His security must never be compromised for austerity.

@MumbaichaDon Initially I respected you then turned out you don't have your personal thoughts, it's always posting the same tweet what BJP It cell posts. So please don't do moral lecturing on paid tweets. You are not nationalist sir, your tweets show you do paid tweets.

@Vedmalik1 @gauravcsawant Especially @RSSorg . Just yesterday one of their higher ups (Hosbale) was endorsing talks and people to people connect with Pakistanis. The same old #AmanKaTamasha @RatanSharda55 @DattaHosabale

Till recently Pakistan's issue with India was territorial-J&K. Now Asim Munir says "It is fundamental, of ideology" (of Hindu-Muslim, two nation theory). People in India need to take note of it.@gauravcsawant

🇮🇳 WATCH: Evidence recovered from Nida Khan’s laptop by TCS reportedly revealed contacts with 136 Islamofacist organizations worldwide. Investigators say she participated in video calls with groups in Pakistan to receive training on carrying out forced conversions on Hindus to Muslims.

Track people speaking against Greater Nicobar, you will find a desi version of Eileen. Huawei Ramesh is suspect in my book.

सुप्रीम कोर्ट ही मोदी जी के SC/ST Act पर थोड़ी बहुत सेंसिबल बातें अलग-अलग निर्णयों के माध्यम से कर रहा है। 2018 का मास्टरस्ट्रोक हम सह ही रहे हैं। आज कहा है कि निजी कमरे में या घर में यदि ऐसा कुछ होता है तो उसे आप इस क़ानून के दायरे में नहीं ला सकते। आज सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने यह निर्देश दिया कि केवल SC/St एक्ट लग जाने मात्र से किसी को एंटीसिपेटरी बेल नहीं देना, अनुचित है यदि प्राथमिक रूप से एक्ट का दुरुपयोग दिखे। यही बात जम्मू-कश्मीर हाई कोर्ट ने कुछ समय पूर्व कहीं थी। एक अन्य निर्णय में सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने कहा कि जातिगत गाली/कार्य जब तक सार्वजनिक तौर पर ना हुआ हो, उसे इस एक्ट के दायरे में नहीं लाया जा सकता। एक निर्णय में केरल हाई कोर्ट ने कहा कि यदि केस संदिग्ध या राजनैतिक लक्ष्य साधने के लिए हो तब भी बेल दी जा सकती है। सुप्रीम कोर्ट एवं अन्य हाई कोर्ट ने यह भी कहा है कि किसी SC/ST व्यक्ति को गाली मात्र देने से एक्ट नहीं लगेगा, जब तक कि गाली सार्वजनिक तौर पर, उसकी जाति से संबद्ध ना हो। कन्वर्ट लोगों को सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने इसके प्रयोग की अनुमति नहीं दी है। सेक्शन 18, जिसमें पूर्व बेल पर पूर्णतः रोक है, तभी लागू किया जा सकता है जब FIR में स्पष्ट हो कि जातिगत भेदभाव से प्रेरित हो कर अपराध हुआ है। फिर भी, मैं सबसे यही कहूँगा कि बच कर रहें, कोर्ट हाथ पर हाथ धरे रह जाएगी यदि सरकार ने चाह लिया कि आप उनकी राजनैतिक रोटी फुलाने के लिए आग पर गर्म किए जा सकते हो।

Decided to be a good citizen. Inspired by PM’s call for austerity, left the car at home. Auto to the Metro station: ₹30. Metro ticket: ₹30. Feeder bus for the last stretch: ₹20. Total one way: ₹80. Return journey: another ₹80. Grand daily total: ₹160. My car gives 14 kilometres to a litre. Office is 7 kilometres from home. Roughly ₹100 a day, door to door, including the petrol and the quiet dignity of arriving without fuss. Public transport, in other words, costs me ₹60 more than driving myself. Per day. In a city with a functioning Metro. This is what we call last-mile connectivity gap — the small, unglamorous gap between the grand infrastructure and your actual front door. Austerity, apparently, is for the commuter alone. The PM travels by motorcade. The last I checked.

1/ Owing to high barriers to entry, India’s lodging and hotels industry has become a cartel that raises prices at will and fleeces customers. India’s luxury hotel average daily rate (ADR) in Mumbai and Delhi now rival those of New York and London. Absurdly enough, the financial press sometimes celebrates this as some triumph of Indian hospitality. It is nothing of the sort. High prices are the unmistakable stamp of a supply-constrained market in a low income country, which should actually have a very competitively priced and deep pool of lodging options. The hotel industry is a structural failure being hyped as a success.

Narendra Modi’s funda is simple: – If it’s about duty, Indians should do it – if it’s about responsibility, Nehru did it – if it’s about credit, Modi did it

मोदी जी… ये दलितों के साथ अत्याचार हो गया है, अब झूठे केस के पैसे मिलेंगे कि नहीं? मोदी जी, आप को भीम राव अंबेडकर की सौगंध है कि इस पर संविधान संशोधन लाओ और केस लगते ही फाँसी की सज़ा होनी चाहिए! तभी 5000 साल का बदला पूरा होगा, ना रहेगा स्वर्ण समाज, ना ज़रूरत होगी इस Act की👍

Yes of course we will comply with US sanctions on Russian LNG & import more expensive US LNG. That will be part of t&c of trade deal as well to reduce trade deficit with USA. In a way we are complying with American diktats on energy supplies with no strategic autonomy. We gave up Iranian Oil & Chabahar as well ! Pattern is visible sir ! India is the good boy of the world who will adhere to all rules laid down by the bully. In punjabi its called ਬੀਬਾ ਮੁੰਡਾ ਜੇਡੀ ਸਾਰੇ ਕਾਨੂੰਨ ਪਾਲਣ ਕਰੇਗਾ ਪਾਂਵ੍ਹੇ ਛਿੱਲ ਲੱਥ ਜਾਏ !

Trump's war is driving up inflation: The consumer price index rose at a 3.8% annual pace in the year ending in April, up from 3.3% in March and 2.4% in February.
