Not Hindutva, not welfare – gaming the news cycle might be the BJP’s strongest weapon

As India’s entire mass media dropped everything from the civil war in Manipur to upcoming byepolls to discuss this subject, conversations ranged from decolonialisation to Hindutva. Ironically, by the end of the week, the Bharatiya Janata Party itself was trying to calm down the furore it had itself sparked off.

The slow but sure decline of the UK as a globally significant country continues...

had wait a day to meet host (in private/no photo op) - so much for the notion of being 'India's favourite son' then.

Given that pretty much the only thing about the G20 is its performative function, this tells us a lot about how the UK now fares in international .

Not so much 'punching above our weight' as our weight now being obvious for everyone to see!

Soldiers on leave now govt’s marketing agents, by order of Army HQ!

Last week, media reports said that the Indian Army had passed an order to all its soldiers going on leave – soldiers are authorised 60 days of annual leave – to spend time doing “social service” to enhance “nation-building efforts”.

or ?

Contrary to the propaganda India is NOT a colonial name but predates it by thousands of years, comes from "land around Indus river".

Bharat/Hindustan are more of social grouping term rather than a country/region identifier.

India’s prime minister uses the G20 summit to advertise his global reach and court voters at home

Ahead of the summit, historical monuments, airports and major landmarks are projecting this year’s G20 logo — an image of a globe inside a lotus, using the colors of the Indian flag. The opposition says it is no coincidence that the lotus is also the election symbol of Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party.

How Modi colonises our minds

The convening of the special session of Parliament is prime minister’s method of dominating the minds of supporters and critics alike, which is driven by his fear of losing elections, writes Ajaz Ashraf.

The Nowhere Men & Women: How India Abandoned 14 Crore Citizens on a Policy Paper

The government of India runs the world’s biggest food security scheme, which provides free ration to more than 80 crore people. The scheme has won Prime Minister Narendra Modi accolades. But what if we realise that there are over 14 crore people who have been omitted from the benefit of this scheme because the government has not counted Indian citizens in over a decade? Can its intransigence break the welfare structure of governance?

How the Black Money Was Brought Back to India

The latest revelations against the Adani Group are a reminder of the lengths and depths to which the prime minister has gone to protect his corrupt friends and their misdeeds by rendering India’s regulatory and investigative agencies toothless, writes Jairam Ramesh.
