Will farm leader Rakesh Tikait make an alliance with Congress?

Image
Rakesh Tikait is a failed politician and hence he cannot join or make alliance with congress. He tried his luck in few elections but failed miserably in his home turf of Western UP Jat land. He is now a pawn of congress. Indira Gandhi created Bhindranwale in Punjab in late 1970s to counter political rival Akali Dal. Bhindranwale became radical terr0r!st over the period of time. During 1982 9th Asian Games in New Delhi, special security arrangements were made to prevent Khalistani propaganda and attack. Then came unfortunate peak of militancy in Punjab, event of ‘Operation Bluestar’ and subsequent assassination of the Army chief Vaidya and PM Indira Gandhi. Indira Gandhi also created LTTE (Liberation Tiger of Tamil Eelam) who were fighting a separate home land for Tamils in Sri Lanka. There were other Tamil group but they were mostly political like TELA (Tamil Eelam Liberation Army), EPRLF (Eelam People's Revolutionary Liberation Front), TLO (Tamil Liberation Organisation) etc. LTTE...

What do you think about the US and India relations? Why did Narendra Modi visit us?

Image
In 1990s, India and USA were at loggerheads diplomatically on most global issues. India often accused USA Secretary of state Madeleine Albright and others in 1990s that they openly takes Pakistan’s side. USA’s official statements appear to be drafted by Pakistan and always ignored India’s geo-political concerns. This is because Pakistan was a USA ally during cold war days and supported USA in Afghan war against Soviets. In early 1990s, India and the United States were two ‘estranged democracies’ trying to re-discover mutually after decades of mutual suspicion during cold war decades. After breakup of Soviet Union in 1991, India launched ‘look east policy’ for close co-operation with South East Asian (AEAN) countries and sole super power USA. Fast forward to recent Indian PM Modi’s June 2023 USA official visit joint statement on Pakistan. US and India on strongly condemned cross-border terr0rism and the use of terr0rist proxies and called on Pakistan (by taking name directly) to take im...
