This thread isn't about 9/11. Feel free to open a thread in the appropriate sub forum

Please don't peddle conspiracy theories. It's well proven and even acknowledged by various Govts and officials that Pak citizens and agencies were involved in 26/11. And 9/11 information is also available on proper resources outlining the involvement of Osama.

Can't believe it's been 15 years. I flew our from JFK on 9/9 and then this happened a few years later when I was en route to a pub called Henry Thams which was just a few hundred meters from the Taj. I started getting calls to turn around but I thought it's an exaggeration so I pulled over and...

India has always been reluctant to be in any camp as such and it's alliance with the West works strategically as a win-win. If interests collide, both sides will not be averse to charting their own course while still maintaining a strategic alliance in areas where interests overlap - like...

He has chosen his words carefully. Plausible deniability. @Nilgiri @Afif see the deshbhakt (Akash Bannerjee) video on this. I can't post it here since it's in Hindi

The last thing I expected was an India-Canada diplomatic row. In India, it seems to us that Trudeau is merely catering to his vote bank. If Indian agencies were given a greenlight to carry out a hit, I reckon it is more likely they would have targeted Dawood or Hafiz Saeed in Pak. Would be...

This is all just blowback for their "strategic depth" doctrine. Chickens have come home to roost. Some strategy, some depth.

Bhakts in India have so many false narratives about Nehru - 1. He was Muslim 2. He and Jinnah were cousins 3. He refused UNSC membership

Nonsense. Kennedy was India's friend. But American policy was always for non proliferation.

Lanka has a small population and can rely on India to bail it out. It's population is less than that of NCR. It has a high level of literacy and is actually an excellent tourist destination - I was there a day before the lockdown was announced and had to cut my trip shot. Pakistan has what -...

Suzuki has improved it's India offering by leaps and bounds in terms of features. Now with Bharat NCAP in place, they need to improve safety rating.

There have been many since too. Satyajit Ray, Amartya Sen, Jhumpa Lahiri come to mind.

Was reading about Pak people burning and refusing to pay their electricity bills. So decided to check the exchange rate to the Indian rupee. 1 INR now gets you 3.71 Pkr. Is this the lowest it's ever been?

I have yes. It's on my saved list. Along with another Bengali you may be familiar with.

Seen some snide comments online from Americans and Brits. I guess some things never change.

It's been a long journey. From ISRO transporting rocket parts and satellites on bicycles and bullock carts to reaching the moon.

India is the top team in Asia now by a distance. I think in 5 years it will be the best team in the world.

The highest BJP has ever polled is 37% and that was in 2019. Even then Congress clocked in 20%. You are from the South, you would know better but I don't see BJP making a dent in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra, Telangana. They have a footprint in Karnataka so they will definitely do decently there...

I doubt it. I guess there could been an opinion expressed but the Manmohan Singh Govt had its hands full. 2009 was an election year after the 2008 Bombay attacks and much to my surprise the UPA led by Manmohan won. The opposition would had a field day if Indian troops landed in a foreign...

He is the frontrunner for sure. Majority of Indians don't support him. But his party has cracked the code of electoral arithmetic by dividing the opposition vote. They will sweep UP and Gujarat with atleast 100 seats right there. But getting 172 seats from the rest of the states might not be as...
