Has Rahul Gandhi's padayatra in Mizoram generated any excitement?

Image
Congress leader RaGa visited Mizoram in mid-October 2023 for election campaign. People in rest of India might have forgotten that in 1966, PM Indira Gandhi bombed Mizoram capital Aizawl with IAF fighter jets. This is first and last time India used its fighter jets to bomb its own people. But people of Mizoram should not have forgotten that. Till the 1980s, the Indian military stoutly denied the use of air attacks in Mizoram in 1966. By 1967, the Armed Forces Special Powers Act was in force in the area that is now Mizoram.Equally disturbing part of anti-Mizo action by Indira Gandhi is creating of concentration camp (minus gas chambers) where suspected Mizo Liberation Front militants were camped. The military plan was to gather villagers from all over, and cluster them along the side of this road. These new, so-called Protected and Progressive Villages (PPVs), were nothing but concentration camps, minus gas chambers. This was called ‘regrouping of villages.’ Life here was tough: each res

When will the Delhi-Meerut Rapid Rail Metro (RRTS) start?

Image
The plan for a regional rapid transit service to connect Delhi with nearby towns was proposed in the late 1990s. The initial target was a rapid connectivity to Meerut which is the largest city around Delhi and existing colonial era rail network between Ghaziabad and Meerut was partly single line leading to bottlenecks. Daily commuters to Delhi were packed like Sardine fish inside the train. True to congress style of functioning in a ‘sarkari’ way, nothing happened on the ground. As Delhi Metro expanded in 2000s, there was a plan to extend on of its branch to Meerut. This was not found feasible (cost factor as that time Delhi Metro was broad gauge). Hence, National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC) was formed in 2013 and its RRTS corridors were renamed as Rapidx Metro in 2023. On 8 March 2019, PM Modi laid the foundation for the first Rapidx corridor Delhi – Meerut (82 KM) and PM Modi inaugurated first phase of this project Sahibabad – Duhai (17 KM) on 20 October 2023. This a

Why there is war in Gaza? What is the cause?

Gaza war is due to miscalculation by Israel that by creating a strong wall, they can separate out a terr0rist organisation Ham@s. Do you know that southern part of Philippines had a big problem of terr0rism and a separatist movement was driven by IS for decades led by Abu Sayyaf. This group was founded in 1991 and named after a Mujahideen commander in Afghanistan. It was linked to al-Qaeda through support given by Osama bin Laden's brother-in-law. The area is dominated by ‘peaceful community’ people. Hopefully, you got the clear picture by now. The situation was similar to India’s Jammu & Kashmir. Rodrigo Duterte was born in southern Philippines and seen enough of crime like drug mafia and militancy. Duterte was a lawyer and become state prosecutor and later became mayor of Davao city in 1988 and subsequently President of Philippine. As a mayor, he ruthlessly handled organised crime and militancy. This was the primary reason that people of Philippines elected him President (201

Is Arvind Kejriwal the chameleon of politics?

Image
AAP started in 2013 with logo broom and national color orange-white-green in its logo. The motto was anti-corruption and to make India corruption free. Its founder Arvind kejriwal listed corrupt politicians by name before 2014 general election and 2015 Delhi state election. Kejriwal changed AAP logo color to blue following his mentor Mamata Banerjee’s party preferred color. Mamata Banerjee painted many building, bridges, road markings etc blue in Bengal. Kejriwal also seen in his trademark blue shirt. White color in AAP logo was replaced with yellow before the Punjab 20221 state election. Guess the reason? Financial support from Khalistanis from abroad – Canada, USA, UK, Germany and Australia. In a letter released by the SFJ, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun made a sensational allegation that Arvind Kejriwal -led AAP used Khalistan votes and funds to win Punjab 2022 election. Kejriwal also said that he had no problem of being PM of newly independent Khalistan after its separation from India! Ke

Who is the real Pappu of India now? Is it Modi or Rahul Gandhi?

Image
A ‘real’ Pappu is the person not just pull himself down but also pulls down all his partners and associates. Now, guess who? He can tear his own PM Dr. Manmohan Singh’s ordinance in public! He sacks Punjab CM and veteran state leader Capt. Amarender Singh just before the state election and replace with unknown ‘chamcha man’ based on caste consideration and lost the election! His election tie-up with Samajwadi Party in UP proved disaster for both! Shiva Sena (Uddhav) government in Maharashtra supported by congress lasted only 2.5 years! Sometime back he said, ‘unfortunately, I am a Parliamentarian’ and subsequently his MP seat was revoked following court case where he was jailed for 2 years. He is out on bail in that case and got back MP seat with intervension of Supreme Court. His latest controvery is a puppy dog whom he named ‘Noori’ which some special community have raised objections and threatening to go to court. He can create controversy out of thin air and can rightly be said ‘pa
