The French are very misery with any remote semblance of ToT.
Indians are still on Ekla Chalo ré,...
See the recent Scorpene Sub case or M2000 with France.
Strange. Bedfellows if Indians replace Germans.

Outside bet on a Franco-Indian new gen fighter anyone?

@KanwalSibal Agree sir. Trying to peddle same chesp old wine in same cheap old bottle....

A political row erupted over alleged missing donations to the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, with the trust calling it an internal audit matter and the BJP accusing SP chief Akhilesh Yadav of spreading “fabricated lies.”

@elonmusk India has Postal ballots for the military or they can vote at the place of assignment. People don't trust postal ballots. And yes Voter list is verified in a humungous exercise. It does have a small percentage of faults.
Results are declared immediately since Voting is on EVM
English
Once voting is this fraudulent, they can get whatever outcome they want, making a sham of democracy
Arthur MacWaters@ArthurMacwaters
Let me get this straight > nearly every major democracy restricts mail in voting > they also require real, government issued ID > mail in votes (with no confirmation of citizenship during registration) switched the CA election > thus election in CA is one of the most insecure processes in the developed world There’s no question that fraud happened. It’s statistically certain The only question is whether CA can vote itself out of this mess, or if it’s already too far gone When is enough enough?

@Just1597400 @JAYANTH_66 Because weaponising water openly is not something the Indian establishment seems to be blamed for.
The two actions are kept seperate.
Rest is all jargon and media hype. The common public falls for it and is suitably confused.

@MvsNegi @JAYANTH_66 Why? It was done during Sindoor only. It gives more pain than any war.
English
Op Sindoor seems to be like that prescribed 7 day course of Antibiotic that was discontinued after just 3 days, giving the target germ immunity from that particular antibiotic itself.
Pak army got legitimacy-constitution change, CDF, satellites, Rocket Force & a Field Marshal !
Shekhar Gupta@ShekharGupta
The most significant story with strategic implications you’ve read in some time.. Who’d imagine Pakistan watching so from so many satellites of its own.. Another @soumya_pillai exclusive… ‘Pakistan’s spy satellite network watching India has grown faster than ever in just 16 months’ #ThePrintExclusive t.co/9bNuFg0XVp

Took sometime coming.....
Something like this is what Indian Army & Navy need for Op Logistics.
Both have their own challenges...one in the mountains at High Altitudes and the other at sea with platforms in 4 dimensional movement .
Airbus Helicopters@AirbusHeli
At @ILA_Berlin, we introduce the Airbus U145: an uncrewed, fully autonomous variant of the H145. Optimised for cargo with no cockpit, an integrated nose door, and full autonomy, its first flight is set for late 2026.
English
@Just1597400 @JAYANTH_66 Never heard it was part of Op Sindoor. GoI has been very careful not to mix the two.
Pls read my posts before jumping the gun.

@captsingh Yes Captain final objectives are always political but waging war successfully has its own principles and Op Art.
English
Carl von Clausewitz
His most famous line—"War is the continuation of politics by other means."
War serves political goals, not an end in itself.

So, IAF to transport question papers for the June 21 NEET re-exam to 18 locations.
What next? Security cover by soldiers?
English
@JAYANTH_66 Mil Ops do notwork like that.
Much that was done opwise, probably underpolitical naivity, was not as per basics of Op Art.
Pain penalty hasto be higher.
Pak army gained domestically - CDF, Wpns, Budget,FM & internationally DJT & Iran.
Tactical win, Strategically?
Rest is jargon
English
@MvsNegi OP Sindoor wasn't meant to be a 7-day "course" at all. The goal was punitive strikes + signaling, not occupation or regime change. From that view, the message was delivered, red lines were drawn and escalation was controlled. The risk of going longer would have been a wider war.
English
Indian Space efforthas lost way with excessive focus on Big Ticket Vanity projects.
Meanwhile NAVIC has failed
PSLV & EO Sats had catastrophic failures.
Meanwhile Op Sindoor has triggered Pakistan into a space frenzy.

Masterpieces of Karachi Museum
The National Museum of Pakistan in Karachi is sadly neglected. Unlike the museums in Lahore and Peshawar, it is tragically underfunded and badly maintained. And yet it contains some of the greatest masterpieces of South Asian art.

@arunp2810 @shiv_cybersurg Was it eventually installed Sir?
English
Not only did HPT-32 suffer a high rate of engine failures, its poor glide characteristics made forced landings chancy. Since HAL could fix neither, IAF approved installation of a full airframe ballistic parachute system to enable engine off recovery! Wonder if it worked?

In 2010 @ReviewVayu Vayu Aerospace carried an article about the HPT 32 written by Air Mshl Rajkumar. A summary below in the scan

@rumel_dahiya Sir, reading Gen Harbaksh' War Despatched 1965vWar.
This paragraph seems written for today and not 60 years ago.
Since J&K is not going anywhere, terror as a pak weapon is there to stay.
English
@rumel_dahiya Easier said than done. Terror remains the main weapon sorry Beapon in Paki army's arsenal.
In any case Pak army was making canals to divert Indus Water to Cholistan desert in South Punjab, starving Sindh farmers.
For Pak army it is just Punjab and no one else. IWT hits them.
English
Holding of Indus Water Treaty (IWT) in abeyance is a test case for Pakistan.
The Treaty was tilted in Pakistan’s favour. Nothing unusual for India there. India has never been hard nosed in Treaty/Agreement negotiations; be it demarcation of maritime boundary with Bangladesh, issue of Katchatheevu Island with Sri Lanka or the IWT.
Pakistan’s addiction to terrorism and strong belief in its ability to manage the fallout from calibrated use of terrorism to keep the pot boiling, led to her miscalculating India’s response. India’s tolerance was not infinite, but it is a responsible state by any standard.
Pakistan has a small window of opportunity. It must make a bold call, to dismantle its terror infrastructure and demonstrate real change of mindset to the world at large regarding use of terrorism as state policy. If it does not do so quickly and irrevocably, the conditions on ground would have changed to the degree that IWT, even if revived later, would be a much different instrument in practice. Climate change and creation of water use infrastructure that India is contemplating now, will reduce the availability of water that can be shared.
Time for those who control Pakistan’s policy to think deep and hard.
