Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

I agree, we must not help score self goals in this fight on SM. Easy for the opposition to point out the errors and then anything else that is said in the future could also be labeled fake news even if true. I too was a big supporter of Rajiv Gandhi, thought he was an honest man thrust into politics...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

^ Rambling noise without any substance or conclusion except to say 'BJP would not lose easily'. Any writer who uses the phrase 'so-called surgical strikes' referring to the action in Uri has gone to the dark side IMHO and is batting not just for the opposition but for the Pakis. Whatever follows is ...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

saar, just watch the survey videos of indie hindi news channels (shining india, nation 24, etc). you will *not* be surprised! I generally watch both Hindi and English channels (except NDTV) for the debate shows, news and 'surveys'. In most of these so-called surveys of the aam aadmi, the majority i...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Sorry for my lousy analogy, but just as Indian batsman in Hamilton, NewZealand were on a super high and thought just swinging their bats will work in all conditions, Thunder Boult struck and bludgeoned their over-confidence; likewise, ModiJi's budgetary surgical strike punctured Pappu's balls and s...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

That is a tall assumption to make. The din of the narrative is much louder than Modi's own voice now. The ecosystem will try to keep it that way. Just when "Con Air" landed in Delhi, out comes the NSSO Job Report. The ecosystem is trying somewhat successfully to convince fence sitters that Modi is ...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

are you comparing times poll from Dec to times poll in Jan or two different agencies? With the same agency, at least the sampling method and model is consistent. With two different agencies - it is really apple vs oranges This agency did not do a LS 2019 poll earlier so I can't compare. For some of...

I'm saddened to see this whole episode regarding Manohar Parikkar. Rahul actions have absolutely disgusted me with regard to trying to take advantage of a sick man. There is no dearth that he will bend over to try and scream from the Congress bin, to try and create manufactured BS. Manohar Parikkar...

Sometimes I wonder if all the dhoti-shiver is just that, exacerbated by the desperate and wishful thinking by the Congoon Media that revels in spreading FUD. Check this out. Granted it is pretty much a captive audience as it was a youth convention in Surat, home state for Modi Ji. Yet, the passion w...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

An interesting development yesterday was the application by the government to the SC to release the undisputed land of the RJB (which is a huge parcel of almost 67 acres) back to the Hindus to allow construction of the mandir. This has caused severe heartburn for the opposition which is screaming fo...

Quite an explosive revelation by SuSwa. If true, this should ring alarm bells everywhere, but I am sure the Congoons and their paid media will either bury it or play the victim. In any country, a person with a diagnosis of BD or Schizophrenia should not hold any position of power in the government, ...

Re: Indian Movies Thread

Saw Manikarnika yesterday with SHQ. It is a record of some sort for me to have seen two Hindi movies in a theater in one week! Looks like I'm on a roll here :-) I liked the movie, SHQ thought it was mediocre. I've always been a big admirer of Jhansi Ki Rani. I thought Kangana did a good job, the rol...

^ Muns Ji, please check your email. I highly recommend setting up a Paypal button on your website for subscription/donation.

So many of us are just armchair warriors who for various reasons cannot get involved directly and yet are very keen to do what we can for the cause of Dharma.

From Swarajya Magazine, Jaggi's opinion piece . Picture does not look very good. All the things we praise Modi for may not matter if good jobs cannot be promised/delivered. Strange, people don't seem to care about whether they have electricity, toilets, gas stoves, bank accounts, healthcare etc. In ...

I am not sure RaGa will be sidelined. The mother prefers the son to take up the mantle and while the daughter would be us...

Finally managed to see Uri today with SHQ, it was sold out in our area for the weekend. Very slick movie, well acted, well directed, great cinematography and action sequences though could have been a bit more tensely scripted. What is amazing is that even though it comes across as fiction - none of ...

Also about 10% reservation for Economically weaker sections was on the congress manifesto for many elections. PVNR did it in 1991 but was shot down by the SC. Don't recall if the PVNR bill passed both houses. The hizzoners are prone to accept what the government wants and this not being a partisan ...
