Been super comfy watching liberoids keep self btfoing on this score hope they keep it up tbh

Having faced two electoral debacles in 2014 and 2019 – and also a string of Assembly election losses across the country – Rahul Gandhi-led Congress seems to be increasingly counting on foreign censure as a way of embarrassing the Narendra Modi government. The Congress apart, most liberal and Left critics of the Modi government also react enthusiastically to any report in a Western newspaper, survey agency or think tank that says India is on the brink of collapse.

In the last few years, the BJP has been able to whip up a wave of nationalism that looks at the nation as sacrosanct. From sharp popular reactions to the 2016 event at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) to the increasing propensity of people to brandish the national flag on their vehicles in the run-up to Independence Day and Republic Day, a wave of insistent national pride is the order of the day. Under such circumstances, the political and ideological critics of the BJP need to foster an alternative brand of nationalism or simply lie low and bide their time.

Rahul Gandhi did it again on Monday evening. In the 75th year of Indian independence, he addressed a gathering at the British Parliament where he said that the Modi government had destroyed the culture of discussion in the country and that the Opposition was not allowed to speak in India. Gandhi’s long trip to the United Kingdom (UK), with multiple talks there, ended up repeating that he can speak at Cambridge or Harvard but not at an Indian university. He has added that he speaks abroad because he isn’t allowed to, in India. What Gandhi forgets is that Modi would have found it impossible to enter – let alone speak – at universities like JNU or Hyderabad before 2014. Not just that, Modi’s name was struck off the list of speakers at a conference in Wharton in 2013 despite the fact that it was to be a virtual lecture after some Indian-origin professors wrote a tough letter to Wharton against allowing him to speak.

God I love cancelling my enemies.

The unwise insistence by Gandhi to show India as undergoing collapse abroad is unlikely to help the Congress. It immediately renders the Congress’ commitment to nationalism suspect in the minds of millions in India and bolsters the BJP’s claim to a monopoly over it. Unfortunately, similar attempts by a large ecosystem of Left and liberal opinions also end up damaging the Congress. The political Left has already been decimated and regional parties do not figure in these debates around ‘attacks on India from outside’ in any way. When students of universities like Hyderabad and JNU insisted on publicly watching the BBC documentary on Modi, it was the BJP that stood to gain. For, in the eyes of many people, the BBC was not above a Supreme Court-appointed SIT during UPA days or the apex court itself, and there was no context to the two-part documentary in terms of timing. If anything, the message that went to ordinary voters was a ‘foreign conspiracy’ to destabilise India. Two of my friends who are engineers told me over the phone that the timing of the Adani-Hindenburg report and the BBC documentary suggested that it was “world vs Modi” now.

Such is the perception of a conspiracy of entrenched elites in India against Modi, in collaboration with foreign powers, that when academic Salvatore Babones told Rajdeep Sardesai at the India Today Conclave that “Indian intellectuals as a class are anti-India”, there was thunderous applause by the audience. Babones’ argument: Survey agencies’ reports of democracy and freedom suffering in India are not a result of the agencies being biased but their respondents – intellectuals at places like Harvard and JNU – being biased against their own country as a class. The point, again, isn’t whether Babones is right but how his claim was received by the audience. The applause said it all.

Shoot every single lundian in gora uni's humanities departments after prolonged torture

While Narendra Modi has also criticised the Congress in front of the Indian diaspora abroad, Gandhi should just check what he said at a public meeting in Delhi in the run-up to the 2014 Lok Sabha polls, when he had become the party’s face for the polls. Referring to news reports that Nawaz Sharif had referred to the then Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh as “dehati aurat (rural woman)”, Modi said before a packed crowd, “Miyan Nawaz Sharif, mere desh ke Pradhan Mantri ke liye aisi baat bolne ki himmat kaise hui? (how did you dare say this about the Prime Minister of my country?)”

Gandhi needs to think strategically and wrest the discourse of nationalism from the BJP if he wants to have even a slender chance of returning to power at any time in the near future. He has talked about reports of Chinese incursions, but in a manner that is counter-productive. Saying that our soldiers are being thrashed (hamare jawaan pite ja rahe hain) will only rile the army, as the choice of words is deeply offensive.

" Trans Tea stall" " Men Tea stall" " Female Tea stall" What is this ?? Why label it ? This act will never help the third gender to feel included in mainstream society.

Kek wagiecuck thinks chads are gunning for anything other than overlordship over mainstream society at this point

Should be on every railway station. Such a beautiful way to respect the most reverend community in India.

Almost a month after opening up visa slots for Indian citizens over the weekends, the United States has now announced that it will issue visas to one million Indians this year.

"The US Mission has already processed more than two lakh applications at our Embassy and Consulates in India and we're on track to hit our goal of processing more than one million non-immigrant visa applications in 2023," a spokesperson from the US Embassy in New Delhi told The Indian Express.

In 2022, the US Department of State processed around nine million non-immigrant visa applications worldwide, according to the Embassy.

The non-immigrant visa categories include those for business, travel, students visas and crew visas.

To achieve the target, the Embassy is adding more staff, expanding the scope of drop-box facilities and opening up interview slots over the weekend to smoothen the process for Indian citizens. The waiting time for visas has already decreased significantly.

In January, the US embassy opened up special interview slots on Saturdays for faster processing of visas for first-time applicants, in what it called a "multi-pronged initiative" to address the backlog in processing of visa applications due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The US mission, which has offices in Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata and Hyderabad besides the national capital, has also increased the strength of its consular staff, it said in a statement.

"The one million visa plan is an India-specific effort, to further strengthen the people-to-people ties between the two countries," says the Embassy spokesperson.

For Indian citizens seeking a US visa, the purview of the interview waiver was also expanded recently.

The drop-box facility, which is used to renew a US visa without having to go through the interview, is now applicable to various categories, including student visas, business and tourist visas, and skilled worker visas.

The department is also increasing the number of consular officers permanently assigned to the embassy and consulates.

"By the summer, the US mission in India will reach its full strength and we expect to process visas at pre-Covid levels," the department said.

While addressing the media in Washington a couple of weeks ago, Deputy Assistant Secretary for visa services in the Bureau of Consular Affairs, Julie Stufft, had said, "India is the number one priority now."

She added, "So far this year, we have issued 36 percent more visas than we did before the COVID-19 pandemic in India. And that is a huge percentage of progress."

Last month, the US Embassy in India said Indians who are travelling abroad can get a visa appointment at the US Embassy or consulate of their destination. It cited the example of Thailand, saying that the country has opened appointment capacity for B1 and B2 visas (business and travel) for Indians.

Wrong stand. Central Government’s opposition is contrary to and in contravention of Hon’ble SC’s landmark judgement in Navtej Johar vs. Union of India wherein it has affirmed the right to sexual autonomy/choice of a sexual partner as an embedded implicit part of art. 21 guarantee

So much for calling themselves the "naya India". On one side we are welcoming globalization, but are still reluctant to give up this old outdated mindset ...

Stone adulterers

Let’s assume same s*x marriage is recognised. How will that affect you in any way?

It'll make the people who disagree with me politically happy and I can't allow that

If a married heterosexual couple is infertile and therefore cannot have children, are they also considered worthless ?

Now the #RSS colour is out!

Center has an old thought process..about 300-400 year old..I wish they were 1000+ years old mindset...lot of freedom back then..our culture is wrongly represented after colonialism..

Bjp and rss are homophobic and transphobic... and then there are some Sanghi queer people as well.. What do you have to say about it all now??

Maybe they realize not getting married is a bit better than being thrown off rooftops

Show centre "Kinnporche" maybe they change their views after that

All fujos get the wall

So according to the center, an adopted child is not part of the Indian family since child has to be 'born out' of the marriage ? If so, why are we keeping adoption legal at all ?

India : one of the most vile countries to visit as a foreigner especially for women, I'll pass.

And to do this on the name of a Religious Festival.

You know what to do brozzers.

Even a tiny comment like the one I made on Twitter a couple of days ago in response to the freakish aggression against journ*list Rana Ayyub attracted literally hundreds of trolls. A whole lot of Hindu nationalists (if these are real people, that is) are evidently okay with the Modi government’s violent power grab.

I’m not pretending to report on a political situation I understand only very dimly. But I’m on Twitter quite a bit, and as I read these comments I was startled to see how uncannily similar to the MAGA kind these trolls behave and sound. Just like the G*mergate ones, and the Pizzagate ones. US writers quite commonly catch a swarm of them, like a bout of the flu, when they challenge authoritarians not only in the Modi government but also the governments of Hungary, Poland, the government of Donald Trump or the hardline Brexiteers.

We are legion. We are Chud.

Are these pro-authoritarian trolls real people, and if so, how many are real and how many are fake? Are they centralized in some way, organized, and if so, where and how? Why are they so viciously defending the annexation of Kashmir on Twitter? My question was, again, what are the chances the Modi government will face sanctions from the US and the UK for their power grab? Here’s a few answers:

KASHMIRI PANDITS …WE WILL NOW WORK AS ISRAEL WORKS… A STICK ON THE BACK

Is it for Hindus or completely secular?

So far only Hindu groups armed due to terror threats facing them according to the article.

I think they are doing wrong. This will fire back as the Kashmiri will not accept the Indian occupation.

You guys are absolutely disgusting. How dare you link a social message with the Hindu festival of Holi. What has domestic abuse got to do with Holi?Have u lost your mind? You obviously don’t want Hindu customers. btw, u should focus on what happens on your awful site.

It was at this time that many of the future leaders of the Third World were exposed to Fabian thought, most notably India's Jawaharlal Nehru, who subsequently framed economic policy for India on Fabian socialism lines. After independence from Britain, Nehru's Fabian ideas committed India to an economy in which the state owned, operated and controlled means of production, in particular key heavy industrial sectors such as steel, telecommunications, transportation, electricity generation, mining and real estate development. Private activity, property rights and entrepreneurship were discouraged or regulated through permits, nationalisation of economic activity and high taxes were encouraged, rationing, control of individual choices and Mahalanobis model considered by Nehru as a means to implement the Fabian Society version of socialism.

And then we have.

Lee Kuan Yew, the first Prime Minister of Singapore, stated in his memoirs that his initial political philosophy was strongly influenced by the Fabian Society. However, he later altered his views, considering the Fabian ideal of socialism as impractical. In 1993, Lee said:

They [Fabian Socialists] were going to create a just society for the British workers—the beginning of a welfare state, cheap council housing, free medicine and dental treatment, free spectacles, generous unemployment benefits. Of course, for students from the colonies, like Singapore and Malaya, it was a great attraction as the alternative to communism. We did not see until the 1970s that that was the beginning of big problems contributing to the inevitable decline of the British economy.

!bharatiya . Now that the dust has settled I wonder who turned out to be right?

Tell me how you celebrated holi. Tell me about the holi celebration in your colony, if you live in one. What you ate, drank, etc. Did you have fun? I wanna hear it all.
