For last 35 years, Yasin Ansari has been working hard on construction inside the Gorakhnath Temple. He has not just been supervising each aspect of the construction work inside the temple but also keeping accounts of the expenses. Who is the REAL Yogi Adityanath Beyond the Prejudiced Media Narrative? [https:

It has been all known by those who looked deeper than the UPA Government spin, that the Sonia Gandhi led Government had betrayed the Indian national interest at various occassions. But what is coming out now is clearly showing how in an attempt to bring down Narendra Modi, the entire

We are suddenly finding that people who many thought were ethical have been using offshore companies to stash wealth away. This includes the Icelandic PM to close friends of Russian

The hallucinating “greatness” of belief, any belief, is just a stone’s throw away from complete oblivion. For, a belief is only as long as your memory is. A hit by a stone on your head can take away the belief, the god, the prophet, and god’s kith and
A strange situation has occurred. While the Indian Government sent help to the Nepalese promptly after the earthquake, the Indian media coverage went so overboard about it and so insensitive that the public sentiment in Nepal has suddenly turned negative about Indian Media. For last two days now, #gobackIndianmedia has
When one digs deeper, one finds that the story of Gajendra Singh Kalyanwat, the farmer who committed suicide at the AAP rally becomes even more strange! He was a 43 year old Rajput whose family has a sprawling house in a village 120 km from Jaipur with Gooseberry orchards and
Very few things hit one as much as the suicide of someone whose entire life’s mission is to feed us. The farmer. Ostensibly to back the interests of the farmers on the Land Acquisition Bill issue, Arvind Kejriwal and the Aam Aadmi Party decided to have a rally in

SPLAAASHHHH!!! “You ASSHOLE!!!!” The morning had hardly been good. The bharta (“who likes bharta anyways?!”) had taken long and gotten burnt. Rajiv wouldn’t be happy at lunch and it won’t be a good conversation in the evening. And now THIS!! IT was raining and this lunatic on the
On December 6, 2010, a book titled [http://archive.indianexpress.com/news/rss---2611-digvijaya-flags-it-off-again-this-time-in-mumbai/730077] “26/11 : RSS ki Sazish” (26/11: Conspiracy by RSS) written by Aziz Burney, who is the Editor-in-Chief of Urdu Sahara newspaper was released by Congress General Secreatary Digvijay Singh on in Delhi.

In the recent months, Yogi Adityanath has become the target of many in India, who value political correctness over facts.

Every year, at Drishtikone, we analyze the coming year for three nations – Indian, US, and Pakistan. In my view, for our purposes, these three nations are very important. One, because it is the Indian perspective that this blog shows while discussing and talking of Hinduism. US, because it is the
We have been off air on Drishtikone for the new transition to complete. In this time, a lot has happened – in India and the world. India: IPL Betting controversy:Led by the Indian Pacer Sreesanth, players and bookies have been caught cheating on teams and throwing matches to get pay
What is Rashtra Dharma (or Duty to your Nation)? Is it sucking up to the dynasties? Or is it Unity, integrity, security and prosperity of your mother-land? Chanakya deals with these questions very effectively in this one interaction. Whatever he says is still relevant… just replace Nand-vansh with Gandhi dynasty
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act is the flagship rural employment program of Dr. Manmohan Singh’s Congress Government. It is also the greatest mechanism created in India to suck greatest amounts of money since British created their discriminatory laws. It involves a $33 billion investment every year! And
Justice Markandey Katju who has been locking horns with Arun Jaitley and BJP in general has been flouting all the norms of being impartial as the person at helm of the Press Council of India. Well, he has recently been showing anger against Narendra Modi as if he is on
When BJP has put pressure on the Government, Salman Khurshid – the schizophrenic moron has this to say [http://www.newstrackindia.com/newsdetails/2013/02/13/185-Augusta-Westland-copter-scam-Salman-Khurshid-defends-govt-after-BJP-criticism.html] , and its at once the most bizarre as well as bewildering argument. > “There is no such thing. It’s pro-active. There is such
To know the bias and the shallowness of the mainstream media, this is a good comparison. Rahul Gandhi is a nincompoop with a silver spoon and his speech that day – where he brought up the “Power is Poison” statement – was scripted and made up. It was easy to know. On
In yet another incident, where the Political class and the Military are on two different pages, the Air Chief Marshal NAK Browne says that India will have to “look at options” to deal with the incidences that are occurring with Pakistan, while Salman Khurshid, India’s Foreign Minister wants nothing
In this very interesting post, Shilpa Jamkhandikar gives a list [http://blogs.reuters.com/india/2013/01/09/short-skirts-bad-stars-and-chow-mein-why-indias-women-get-raped/] of the Hall of Shame of the people who have given controversial statements regarding the Delhi Gang Rape incident.

After the Police attacks and imposition of Section 144 on Central Delhi areas, now the Police Chief of Delhi comes and puts salt in the wounds of Delhi-ites who protested.

I agree with Kiran Bedi here. All those 5 people were missing. This bloody Government is only good at blaming others… from BJP, to Team Anna to Arvind Kejriwal’s party to Baba Ramdev. They themselves are a bunch of goons! Look in this video at how the policemen are
After Narendra Modi won the elections in a thumping style again for the third time, he did something that one hasn’t really seen happen in Indian politics as long as I can remember. Keshubhai Patel was part of BJP at some point and has since leaving started Gujarat Parivartan
It seems Narendra Modi is all set to win the Gujarat poll by a landslide. Apparently, the higher voter turnout was to push Modi’s margin up as opposed to pull him down. ABP-Nielsen Exit Poll is suggesting. Although News 24 suggests that Modi can get closer to 140 seats
This is an ad from Congress in the run up to the Gujarat Polls. The ad is a play on the “Vibrant Gujarat” slogan of Narendra Modi led Government, and uses it to make a mockery of the economic situation in Gujarat by saying that all the MOUs and the
