For Us Nation Is Bigger Than Our Son: Sartaj Ahmad

Every Indian must be proud of Sartaj. What Sartaj has done is unprecedented and must be emulated by the father of all those sons who pick up guns and become terrorists! One must bestow his/her unadulterated appreciation to all those especially politicians who in the parliament publicly backed Sartaj and appreciated him lavishly! He certainly deserves it! Many often we don’t see such appreciation but in this case we are seeing it and this is a very good news! Rajnath Singh deserves full credit for summoning the courage to speak publicly in parliament in favour of Sartaj and hailing him in no uncertain terms! We are proud of you, Rajnath!

Damned For Doing His Duty

Having led many counter-terrorist operations and in addition, having the experience of dealing with Pakistan's proxy war, Gen Rawat’s plain-speaking was strategically important because the number of youth joining militancy has been going up. Over 100 youths joined the ranks of local-origin terrorists in 2016, bringing the total to an estimated 450. These anti-nationals helped 25 Pakistani terrorists escape and more worryingly forced two operations to be called off in 2016. But it is the sudden rise in the number of ambushes of Army convoys and an upsurge in number of casualties of the Army personnel in terrorist strikes that made Gen Rawat caution the stone-pelting youth and other protesters who block military operations

A Virtue For Rahul-Congress In UP Sin For Others In Maharashtra

The words of these leaders, in a way, amount to reincarnation of the “son of the soil” doctrine enunciated by the Shiv Sena supremo, the late Bal Thackeray— a doctrine that was derided and totally rejected by most of the political parties and leaders including Congress right from Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru down to Rajiv and Sonia Gandhi. And it is this doctrine that the Congress Party and Akhilesh’s Samajwadi Party are deadly opposed to in Maharashtra and elsewhere

BJP's Sunrise In Odisha

The rise of BJP in panchayat polls has delivered a severe blow to both BJD and Congress in the state. BJP has encashed Odisha election success to influence voters in UP and celebrated Vijaya Divas across the state on February 25th only to galvanize the party rank and file for the bigger battle of 2019 assembly and general elections.

Indians Against India

The jihad that we witness impacting from India and Bangladesh began in that period. It was an alien ideology to India. West Bengal has been brutalized by both these imported and alien ideologies i.e. communism and jihad. Consequently, the nationalist constituency in the state has also been brutalized and subjugated. The current dispensation in the state had achieved the feat of dislodging the three decade long Communist rule, which many considered impossible, but it was not without the indulgence of both ultra-leftist (Maoists) and the jihadis of West Bengal and Bangladesh.

Defence Procurement Exercise Will Start Yielding Result Next Year Onwards

The exercise undertaken by the government in terms of defence procurement will start yielding results from next year onwards. In defence procurement we have planted some grafts, which I expect to produce result, but even there you have to wait for 2-3 years, now two years are over and probably 2017 is a year where whatever exercise has been carried out will start yielding results. Most of the issues pertaining to defence procurement procedure are being gradually sorted out.

PM Narendra Modi's Vision is the Need for the Nation

“Uttar Pradesh is literally ruled by mafias now and the state needs to be ruled by visionaries like our Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Congress is no more acceptable to the common man because of its wrong agenda and Rahul Gandhi has already been rejected all over the country. In the greater interest of Uttar Pradesh, I have joined the BJP for a developed state,” says Rita Bahuguna Joshi, the former President of Uttar Pradesh Congress and talks about her future political odyssey in the BJP in an exclusive interview with Nilabh Krishna.

Uniform Civil Code or Islamic Reform?

On a more theoretical plane, one needs to rethink the relationship within the individual and the community in so far as the Muslim community is concerned. The received wisdom that group rights are inalienable to the Muslim community needs to be rethought. What we are confronting today is that the defined religious rights of the community are coming in the way dissenting opinions not just from specific individuals but also from within minority groups within the larger Indian Muslim community.

Bio-CNG Is The Fuel Of The Future

“If bio-CNG comes to the market, then the import of petroleum gas will come down in the country dramatically. People need to understand the importance of cow-dung. By making value addition to the cow-dung, one can produce better bio gas. It will be a major boost for country’s economy,” said Dr. Bharat Patel, a renowned orthopedic surgeon, in an interview to Uday India.
