  The current war that is raging in Israel and Palestine is possibly the longest one between the two. Israel has already smashed the ribs and bones of Hamas, the terrorist outfit of Palestinians and supported by 57 other Muslim countries. Hamas was the first to launch attacks on Israel with 3000 rockets, but instead of unequivocally condemning the terrorist attacks, the Muslim countries have started blaming, in unison, that Israel has been killing innocent civilians of Palestine. There is no doubt that a large number of civilian casualties have occurred in the retaliatory action of Israel but there was no way out for her to avoid it because Hamas’ terrorists have been holding civilians to ransom and use them as shields. One Saumya Santosh of India has also been killed in the rocket attacks of Hamas These are the tactics that are adopted by terrorists in India also, be it Kashmir or Chhattisgarh. There are many puzzling questions that have given rise to this war. Israel has been ...

   Mamata must avoid becoming the Chief Minister It is expected that in all likelihoods Mamata Banerjee will again be elected the leader of the TMC Vidhayak Dal to become the Chief Minister of West Bengal for the third time in a row because itis she who has steered cleared the party to a thumping win, although she herself has been defeated by her rival Suvendu Adhikari of the BJP from the Nandigram assembly constituency. If she is elected as the leader of the Vidhayak Dal, she herself would not be the Vidhayak. Now the question is whether it is morally and constitutionally right for her to be sworn as the Chief Minister. Opinions may differ on this issue, but the undeniable fact is that her swearing-in will be wrong on both counts. Firstly, let us consider it from the angle of morality. If she had not contested the election, it would have been an entirely different matter to elect her as the leader. But here is the unique case of a sitting Chief Minister, who has lost her el...

Agartala District Magistrate Shailesh Kumar Yadav deserves to be pitied and needs to be sent to a mental asylum. What he has done, on the night of the day before yesterday, to spoil the joyous wedding celebrations at two places can be done only by an insane person and not by the one who is in his or her senses. To say that it was unbecoming on the part of an IAS officer is a gross understatement. Firstly, it was difficult to believe that any official could behave in such a vulgar manner. He along with his team and policemen behaved like a third-rate goonda. The people could have retaliated to bring him to senses, but the occasion of the marriage seemed to have kept them on hold. The video of the Agartala DM has now become viral worldwide. Everybody is aghast to see an IAS officer slapping and abusing people including the priest, the groom, and the bride like a constable handling with an unruly crowd. Needless to say, that most of the government employees, right from the IAS officer...

  Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s twenty minutes address to the nation the last night was highly reassuring. The forces that have been busy spreading negativity, lies and canards about Covid -19 must have got tight slaps on their face after Modi’s address. These were the people, who were cursing the government last year for foisting lockdown in the country and now they are criticising and castigating the government for not declaring the lockdown. During the last year, the country has made tremendous progress, expertise, and confidence in fighting with Covid-19. There were not many testing labs, masks, and PPE kits a year ago. Even basic medicines like Hydroxychloroquine were in short supply. But now they are available in plenty because the country got geared up mainly due to the encouraging leadership of Narendra Modi. India has not only become self-sufficient in having the kits and medicines to fight Corona, but she has achieved enough of them to export to scores of countries ...

Think for a moment that if Rakhal Das Banerji and John Marshall of Archaeological Survey of India had not undertaken the excavations of Harappa in 1922, would it have been possible for the whole world to know about Mohen jo-Daro and the Indus Valley Civilisation that existed thousands of years ago? The world would have remained poorer about the ancient Indian civilisation. So, there is no logic in opposing the excavation with the help of modern technology to know the factual position of the Gyanvapi mosque, which has been ordered by Asutosh Tiwari,  the  Senior Fast-Track Court Civil Judge of Varanasi on April 8 The Judge directed the Archaeological Survey of India to conduct a physical survey of the Gyanvapi mosque compound abutting the Kashi Vishwanath temple to find out whether it was a 'superimposition, alteration or addition or there is structural overlapping of any kind, with or over, any other religious structure'.  In his order, he also asked the committee to be c...

     Yogi Adityanath’s name will be written in golden letters for reining the anti-social elements, goondas and mafia dons, who had infested the entire state of Uttar Pradesh during the long misrule of all parties. There is still a lot to be done but even then, what he has done has, undoubtedly, brought huge relief to the people of the state. Lawbreakers flourished particularly during the dispensation of Mayawati and Mulayam. Akhilesh Yadav should be considered as the extension of his father. In fact, the goonda elements of his father’s time got more pampered and became more emboldened during his regime.  Goondas have no parties; they keep on switching their loyalty with the change of regimes. For example, Ramakant Yadav, who has been in almost all major parties is now with the BJP in the hope that he would continue to get protection but thanks to Yogi ji, he is feeling suffocated in the party and the days are not far away when he will say goodbye to it. Thanks t...

  Mamata Didi has been using the word ‘bahiragat’ (outsider) in her campaigns in the Bengal assembly polls. This is mainly to deride Hindi speaking people living in West Bengal. UPeans, Biharis and Marwaris have been having their relationship with Bengal for centuries. Some of them have gone there as employment generators, money makers, traders, and industrialists but lakhs have gone as labourers, workers in plantations and many other industries like Jute and fisheries. They have fully imbibed the culture of Bengal but never before they were ridiculed, mocked or insulted in the manner, Mamata Didi is doing these days. This shows the extreme frustration of the lady, who has been known for her simplicity. It was thought that cut and corruption would be controlled but it has grown beyond all proportions in her ten-year rule. Her ire, however, these days are reserved for Hindi wallas. There appears to be no reason why millions of Bangladeshi infiltrators, who have completely destroye...
