When India spoke in one voice

Let me first offer my heartfelt tribute to the brave men and women of our armed forces.

When India spoke in one voice

With surgical precision, unmatched valour, and unwavering resolve, they carried out Operation Sindoor-delivering justice to those who dared to harm innocent Indian lives.

In today's highly polarised world, marked by intense social media battles, there are rare moments in a nation's journey when partisan lines blur-when political parties, regardless of their ideologies and alliances, set aside their differences and unite for a patriotic cause. Operation Sindoor was one such cause. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India responded with precision and launched a diplomatic offensive that carried the moral weight of a united Parliament to capitals across the world.

As a proud member of the all-party delegation representing India under Operation Sindoor, I witnessed firsthand the power of unity in the service of national interest. For two weeks, leaders from across the political spectrum travelled together not as members of any political party, but as Indians! Shashi Tharoor, through his diplomatic finesse and eloquence, framed India's position with intellectual gravitas.

Indian Army men fighting for the British against the Japanese were also patriots

Readers in India may be misled by the title of Gautam Hazarika's new book, The Forgotten Indian Prisoners of World War II: Surrender, Loyalty, Betrayal and Hell. It is not about the INA prisoners who were put on trial in the Red Fort by the British. This book is about those Indian soldiers who fought the Japanese in Singapore, Malaya and Burma alongside the British, and who had to surrender, were taken prisoner, put to torture and hard labour by the Japanese, refused to join the INA, and faced death or managed to escape. While recounting their stories, Hazarika also gives an insight into the INA movement. Edited excerpts from an interview with the author:

The parietal lobe

If the frontal lobe is where we decide what to do, the parietal lobe is where we understand where we are. It is the brain's internal GPS, the quiet navigator that lets you put your hand exactly where your teacup is, find the edge of a staircase without staring at it, or scratch the correct side of your head when it itches. When it works well, we move through life gracefully. When it falters, life becomes slapstick comedy.
