How is the present incident of Rahul Gandhi's disqualification different from the disqualification of Indira Gandhi way back in the 70s?

Indira Gandhi was PM and iron lady who made least strategic blunders unlike his father Jawaharlal Nehru who made hundred of blunders and she was hailed for her decisions in 1971 Indo-Pak Bangladesh war and 1975 Sikkim inclusion. Indira Gandhi was disqualified and barred from holding office after the Allahabad High Court found her guilty of engaging in 'corrupt practices' during her election campaign. This disqualification was followed by the declaration of Emergency in 1975. Rahul's disqualification is different compared to Janata Party meted out to Indira Gandhi in October 1977 when government arrested her and four former ministers on charges of corruption and misuse of authority. Bholanath Pandey and Devendra Pandey in December 1978 hijacked Indian Airlines flight from Calcutta (now Kolkata) to Lucknow, and forced it to land at Varanasi. They demanded the release of Indira Gandhi who had been arrested and the withdrawal of all the cases against her son Sanjay Gandhi. They

Where is the G20 summit being held in India?

India as the current President for G-20 will hold around 200 meeting across the Indian cities in 2023 and the process has already started. A recent G-20 meet in Arunachal Pradesh needs special mention. Whenever top Indian official like President, Vice President, Prime Minister and Defence Minister visits Arunachal Pradesh, China officially protest diplomatically without fail. This is happening for the last two decades but Chinese failed to deter top Indian officials visit to Arunachal Pradesh. Now India hosted a G-20 meet in Aruncahal Pradesh’s capital city Itanagar and as expected, the Chinese delegates were conspicuous by its absence. China didn’t gave any explanation to abstain the ‘Research and Innovation initiative’ meet of G-20 but everybody knows the reason. This event happened on Sunday 26 March 2023 and till now, no diplomatic protest made by China for holding this G-20 meet in Arunachal Pradesh where more than 50 international delegates attended. According to officiais, the d

On 25 March 2023, PM Modi inaugurated Bengaluru’s Whitefield-Krishnarajapura section of Namma Metro and he purchased a ticket to travel in it. He also purchased metro ticket while inaugurating Pune, Nagpur, Kanpur, Noida (Delhi Metro Magenta line from Botanical Garden to Okhla Bird Sanctuary in Noida) Metro etc. As a PM he need not to purchase a ticket but he does every time as PM Vajapyee did the same while inaugurating India’s second Metro – Delhi Metro in 2002. PM Modi inaugurating Whitefield section of Bengaluru Namma Metro on 25 March 2023 PM Vajpayee promoted Delhi metro to avoid Delhi’s chaotic traffic and Modi is doing the same. He is sometime seen in Delhi Metro airport line to avoid traffic and also used Metro taking South Korean President and Australian PM with him. While inaugurating Magenta line on Vajpayee’s birthday 25th December 2017, Modi said ‘on December 24, 2002 then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee took a ride on the metro and it was a historic moment. Since the

RaGa as PM? Are you sure? He is still behaving like a kid nose picking and pasting nasal mucus on his party president Mr Kharge’s dress. He is following his grandma Indira Gandhi who treated party members as doormat! Pic source: Internet  

Is Narendra Modi trying to propagate Hindutva ideology by trying to promote Yoga Day in a secular country like India?

The Indian PM Modi is only propagating Indian culture to the outside world as symbol of India’s soft power just like Bollywood movies are India’s soft power. In 1955 when Saudi Arabia king visited Varanasi city, India’s Nehru government covered all the temples along the route due to religious sensitivity of Saudi visitor. This is the reason, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma recently said that congress is the ‘new Mughals’. Now look at Modi era, Modi is taking foreign leaders to our Hindu temples and they have also started respecting our religious and cultural values. This means ‘ Modi hai toh mimkin hai ’. Namaste Due to Covid-19 pandemic, more and more global leaders are greeting with Namaste. Diwali and Holi celebrations Yoga Day The popularity of Yoga and acceptance of Indian culture is only giving Burnol moments to Indian librandµs who are Maculay’s putra or follower of Chinese communist ideology despite the fact that Yoga is highly popular in China.
