Vlad Putin returns to Russia today after a one-day visit to India for the annual Russia-India summit. I think we had a big list to buy from Russia - Su57s, more S-400s, S-500s, AK-630 air defense guns, missiles. TU-160 bombers (which perhaps we do not need) and tanks were on offer. But the joint...

NATO took away their underwear.

Newspapers reported that Trump has said that he stopped India-Pakistan war by trade threats, sixty times. If he says 40 more times, I will have no option but to accept it, for some one said that a lie becomes a truth if it is repeated 99 times.

I have differences with the policies of Modi government. The first is prohibition of beef. It is economical and unsustainable. It will result in people avoiding raising cows. In the state of Nagaland where beef is not prohibited the number of cows has doubled, but in Haryana where beef is...

Correction again. I do not know how many times Nitish Kumar has won elections in Bihar. He has may lost one or two. But .. I confirmed, he will be taking oath as the Chief Minister of his state for the 10th time. I think this must be a record in a democratic country. His first ministry lasted 7...

Correction: The fourth strongest army, third largest economy (PPP). "Prime Minister Modi has consistently ranked as one of the most popular leaders since he first took office in 2014, and he has maintained a dominant position in approval ratings, including being the most popular democratic...

It is not cult of personality. I have at least that much intelligence, but one cannot deny truth. I became a strong athiest because of my love for truth. I am not a new-bie in IIDB. I am a member since 19 years and I have some 30,000 posts in former edition of IIDB and Secular Cafe. India has...

Yeah, we (BJP supporters) are very happy about the result. Fifth time Nitish Kumar will be the Chief Minister. No anti-incumbancy. Opposition is weak because they had not done the right thing when they were in power. Modi did not get the third term for free. He has not taken a holdiday after he...

DuckAssist This is the 10th win for the Chief Minister, Nitish Kumar. The win was for a coalition with Modi's party, in which that Modi's party got the maximum success. Bihar is the third largest state of India by population (Estimated to be 131 million in 2025). This was also the heaviest-ever...

Relative to Earth. We do not know if it is an impossibility. Are there not things that can move at a faster speed? If we are riding a Tachyon rocket, then Earth's history will pass by us in reverse, we will see history happening. Some one said 'Grandpa paradox'. "Some theoretical concepts...

Sort of like the growing block theory. It avoids determinism. The problem is that the whole of it could be imaginary, perception, the universe and what happened in it. That is why one cannot get back to it, unless one goes in space at a speed greater than that of light, and observes the world...

10-year Defense Treaty signed between US and India. What a hot/cold relationship!

Well, politicians who contest democratic elections in areas where caste and religion complicate the scenario, cannot be God's angels. We will have one such, intensely fought, in Bihar, November 6 and 11, results on November 14.

This happens in India too. We (I mean Indian government) is aware of this. If the government takes some steps to improve things here, NGOs incite people against it, whether it is Kalpakkam Nuclear Plant, a port in Maharashtra or a dam in Arunachal Pradesh. Many of them are Christian...
