    Russia, China, Turkey among those cited in US trafficking report

    Fighting war age = 18. Buying beer age = 21. So you can get shot, maimed, killed for your country at 18 but you can't buy a beer.

    Casual Discussion Video Games

    Ha, you know there is a bug in the first Civilization which made Gandhi go absolutely nuclear or something. Or maybe it was an urban legend. Great game nonetheless. Played Alpha Centauri?

    It's been a long time since I played video games. Sid Meier games like Civilization & Alpha Centauri used to be super addictive. Should have thought of them during the lockdown.

    Lol China's state-run TV channel CGTN recently caught itself in an embarrassing situation - the channel stole the video of India's indigenous Tejas fighter plane and showed it as the strength of its fighter jet J-10...

    Gadkari is good, so is Rajnath. Both are last links to the Vajpayee administration. Among the Modi guys, only Piyush Goyal seems good. Parrikar and Swaraj died, that was a shame. Never thought highly of Jaitley but was competent.

    India Corona thread

    Biggest problem has been its availability. I would have preferred Covaxin but just couldn't get it. They have roped in Haffkine Institute to make more doses but obviously it takes time to start an assembly line.

    India pressured WHO? Is this your opinion or you have a source?

    How do you think the BJP coffers are getting filled? You think it is Sitharaman who is raising funds from industrialists and then pushing their agenda or is it Amit Shah? This will give you an idea of how the industrialists are hedging their bets now -...

    I agree. Can't dispute that. But can't become a single party country either - it's too much power. Indira abused it. Now Modi is. An NDA coalition or UPA coalition is needed to temper things.

    Exactly. It's speculative if it's based on the future. It is not rooted in today's reality. BTW, Ambani keeps everyone happy - particularly was close to the Deoras. How is Tips an infra company? Or TTML riding the wave of a future SuperApp? Or a grounded Jet Airways? I am talking specifics...

    FYI, the biggest builder in India's biggest real estate market is Lodha. He is a BJP MLA since years. Every BJP / Congress /NCP / Shiv Sena leader worth his salt has either some real estate business in Bombay or some link to a cooperative bank in Vidharba. You think Jay Shah is in BCCI...

    Markets are booming because of speculation. Can you explain the following stocks' stupendous rise? Adani Green Adani (pretty much anything) Seems how the stock of Tips has skyrocketed? If they are clearing a mess for 7 years economically, just how efficient are they? What did demonization...

    I disagree. UPA 1 did a lot of good - India-US nuke deal. GST was mooted by UPA 1 too and opposed by BJP. Their interferece with institutions was also not as blatant or proactive as that of Modi / Shah.

    Poor chaps can't distinguish between Tamil Eelam demand in Lanka and language movement in South India back in the day. Can't blame them though.

    Why? I agree Congress & UPA was/were and will be supremely corrupt with ministers like Shibu Soren, Lalu Yadav, A Raja, Kalmadi and Pawar. But the economy was booming - with everything from real estate to Pharma to telecom to IT booming under the UPA regime. BJP's economic policies have been...
