The Indian budget every year has always been an eagerly awaited event. For many decades, the best minds in economics, finance, tax, business and industry throng the media house to analyze the provisions shared by the Financial Minister.
Sometimes major events completely disconnected may be data points for the plans of the different powers around the world. The challenge is to discern what purpose they serve? More critically, what are we moving towards?
When the US Ambassador threatened India's "Strategic Autonomy" policy over India's friendship with Russia - much more than meets the eye was at stake. Let us unpack how the Ukraine war has fundamentally changed the US and the world. And why are we here anyway?
In India, you don’t mess with Punjabis, specially with Punjab!
Rahul Gandhi, the bird-brained Congress prince, visited Punjab where he was feted by all and sundry. And, what did he have to say for it? That, as per his estimates 7 out of 10 youth in Punjab are drug addicts.
Yes, drug addiction is a big problem in Punjab, but 70% youth?? He must have spent his time at a “Joint club” of some sorts to come up with that kind of asinine remark.
This hasn’t gone down well with Saade Punjabis!
So a senior Shiromani Akali Dal Leader chose to give it back to the young idiot rather sharply.
“Rahul Gandhi and Robert Vadra should undergo a dope test to prove that they are not addicts before making such comments about Punjab’s youth. Rahul Gandhi must apologise to the youth for this humiliation,” said senior SAD leader Prem Singh Chandumajra.
Like I said, you don’t screw around with us Punjus!

This visit of India left me with many questions. Many observations and inputs from different people and sections. Food for thought that I have tried to contemplate on and make sense of. Sharing all that with you.
When you analyze the last 60 years of the economic miracles of Singapore, South Korea and Malaysia versus the continued impoverished Indian economy, you get very interesting lessons. Can Indians have the wherewithal in them to do in one generation so that the coming generations may rise?
