VOV1 - Tuần qua, vận tải hàng không trên khắp Ấn Độ đã rơi vào cảnh hỗn loạn do hãng hàng không nội địa lớn nhất IndiGo liên tục hủy chuyến.Xảy ra khi du lịch hàng không Ấn Độ đang gần giai đoạn đỉnh điểm vào tháng 12, sự cố nghiêm trọng này buộc chính phủ phải công bố các biện pháp hỗ trợ đặc biệt cho hãng và giải tỏa tình trạng hàng nghìn hành khách mắc kẹt tại các sân bay.Dù đã được chính phủ thay đổi và miễn trừ một số quy định để sớm trở lại hoạt động bình thường, nhưng sự cố hàng không lần này đặt ra những dấu hỏi lớn cho hệ thống vận hành và năng lực thích nghi - không chỉ của IndiGo mà toàn ngành hàng không Ấn Độ. Góc nhìn của Phóng viên Lê Dũng - Thường trú tại Ấn Độ.Hành khách của IndiGo đứng đợi tại sân bay quốc tế Indira Gandhi ở thủ đô New Delhi ngày 5/12 khi IndiGo không thể khai thác chuyến bay nội địa nào tại sân bay này (ANI)

This week on the Mark Levin Show, the judges in the James Comey case are obstructing the prosecution by granting rare access to secret grand jury information under Federal Rule 6e, despite no evidence of misconduct during the indictment, effectively trying to dismiss the case before trial. The judges continue lecturing the prosecution on alleged faults which create an awful situation. Later, no we are not ready for Michelle Obama to be President. She's a radical leftist who keeps trashing our country and talking down to the people. She'd be unable to hold up to scrutiny on substantive issues had she run. She's no Margaret Thatcher, Golda Meir, Indira Gandhi, and on and on. The 9/11 families still lack answers from Saudi Arabia's involvement on September 11th. Mohammed bin Salman's claim that Osama bin Laden used Saudis to destroy U.S.-Saudi relations is crap. MBS says he wants a two-state solution with Israel and Palestine but he won't take in one Palestinian from Gaza. The video with Democratic veterans urging the military and intelligence communities to defy ‘illegal orders' from President Trump, without specifying what those orders are is shocking. This is unprecedented exploitation, implying the President is portrayed as a law-violating dictator. Democrats pretend to support the military while slashing its budgets under Biden. A three-judge panel issued a 160-page order blocking Texas's new congressional redistricting plan, alleging it was unlawfully based on race rather than partisanship. In a scathing 104-page dissent, Judge Jerry Smith accused majority judges Jeffrey Vincent Brown and David Guaderrama of "pernicious judicial misbehavior" by denying him adequate time to review and respond, calling it the most outrageous judicial conduct he had encountered in 37 years. Smith argued the redistricting was driven by partisan gain, not racial animus, dismantling the majority's claims as deceptive, misleading, and factually erroneous. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Indira Gandhi's birth anniversary, ThePrint Editor-In-Chief recalls his two meetings with the former PM. First in 1997, in Chandigarh and thereafter in February 1983 post the Nellie massacre in Assam. Watch #FirstPersonSecondDraft, where Shekhar Gupta also looks at how Indira Gandhi did brilliantly on national security through challenging years, but she had two big failures- maintaining communal peace & damaging India's political economy.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the judges in the James Comey case are obstructing the prosecution by granting rare access to secret grand jury information under Federal Rule 6e, despite no evidence of misconduct during the indictment, effectively trying to dismiss the case before trial. The judges continue lecturing the prosecution on alleged faults which create an awful situation. It looks like the fix is in. Also, the Epstein files contain nothing negative about Trump, despite pushes from figures like Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene, Tucker Carlson, and Steve Bannon. Tucker Carlson will always be a loathsome lowlife giving Nick Fuentes a megaphone, and for his own repulsive bigotry and antisemitism, and nobody can change that. This is not who the American people are or ever will be. And we patriots are not going to surrender our country to these poisonous grifters and hate-mongers. Not now, not ever. But they are actively trying to destroy our movement, promote themselves, and hand the country over to the Marxist-Islamist left and the Democrat Party. Make no mistake about it. Later, no we are not ready for Michelle Obama to be President. She's a radical leftist who keeps trashing our country and talking down to the people. She'd be unable to hold up to scrutiny on substantive issues had she run. She's no Margaret Thatcher, Golda Meir, Indira Gandhi, and on and on. Afterward, there should be some skepticism about the U.S. selling advanced F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, given the country's unacknowledged role in 9/11 and lack of apology to victims' families or the nation. What do they need F-35s for? Who is threatening Saudia Arabia? Why aren't we selling F-35s to Taiwan? Then, China is intensifying reprisals against Japan following new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's suggestion that Japan could militarily intervene if China attempts to blockade or seize Taiwan, which China claims but has no historic right to.

India's second economic phase began with the landmark economic reforms of 1991, triggered by a balance of payments crisis. These reforms ushered in an era of liberalization, privatization and globalization that dismantled many of the past restrictive economic policies. This shift led to significantly higher growth rates, averaging 6-7% annually, propelling India to become one of the world's fastest-growing major economies.

What happens when a defiant chronicler and an idealist revolutionary converge in the playground that is India's freedom struggle? Urdu newspaper Pratap, launched in pre-partition India, was a torchbearer against the British Raj. The man who publicly defended it against colonial censorship was none other than Jawaharlal Nehru. The pen picked up by freedom fighter Virendra, the paper's editor and the founder's son who once walked shoulder to shoulder with stalwarts like Bhagat Singh was equally fearless despite threats by the imperial government, Indira Gandhi's Emergency and a parcel bomb sent to Pratap's office during terrorism in Punjab. Virendra was first arrested in the historic Saunders murder case. He was also in jail with Bhagat Singh the day the legendary revolutionary was hanged, sharing a rare first-hand witness account. In Independent India, too footsteps filled Pratap and its editors with dread and terror. Pratap: A Defiant Newspaper is a timely reminder of the ethos of a struggle, a template for speaking truth to power at all costs. It is the story of a perfect storm. The book is written by Virendra's son, distinguished editor Chander Mohan and journalist granddaughter Jyotsna Mohan. Jyotsna and Azeezullah Baig will be in conversation with Maya Sharma. There will be a Q&A session with the audience. In this episode of BIC Talks, Jyotsna Mohan and Azeezullah Baig will be in conversation with Maya Sharma.

Dr. Sneh Bhargava, AIIMS Delhi's first and still only woman director, shares her vivid memories of October 31, 1984: the day Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was shot and rushed into AIIMS while Dr. Bhargava's appointment was being confirmed. In this podcast, Dr. Bhargava describes the chaos in the casualty ward, the desperate medical efforts to revive Mrs. Gandhi, and the political pressures that followed. She also reflects on her trailblazing career in radiology, her fight for modernising the department, and her unwavering stand against political interference. Now 95, Dr. Bhargava has released her memoir The Woman Who Ran AIIMS, revisiting the day India's history changed, and her role in leading India's top medical institution through its darkest hours.

Long relegated to the footnotes of history, Lal Bahadur Shastri is often overshadowed by the towering legacies of Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi. But what if Shastri hadn't died suddenly after signing the Tashkent Agreement with Pakistan? Would Indira Gandhi still have become Prime Minister? And how might India's political trajectory have changed?In this episode, host Sandip Roy speaks to Sanjeev Chopra, author of The Great Conciliator, a new biography of Shastri. Chopra, a former IAS officer and former director of the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration, traces Shastri's rise to power and explores why India's second Prime Minister deserves a closer look today.Produced by Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar

How and why did Hindu nationalism become popular among India's diaspora after India's independence in 1947? This is the central question of Hindu Nationalism in the Indian Diaspora: Transnational Politics and British Multiculturalism, a 2023 book by the historian Edward Anderson.The book interrogates the distinctive resonance Hindutva ideology has overseas, and the multiple ways in which the diaspora engages with British politics and society, while sustaining connections back home in India.Anderson is assistant professor in History at Northumbria University in Newcastle. He was previously the Smuts Research Fellow in Commonwealth Studies at the University of Cambridge, where he obtained a PhD in History.Anderson joins Milan on the show this week to discuss the trajectory of Indian migration to Britain, the founding of the first overseas Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) shakha, and the Emergency's impact amongst the diaspora. Plus, the two discuss the role of the diaspora in funding politics and the emergence of “neo-Hindutva.”Episode notes:1. “A Reappraisal of Indira Gandhi's Life—and Legacy (with Srinath Raghavan),” Grand Tamasha, June 11, 2025.2. “The Secret to Indian Americans' Success (with Meenakshi Ahamed),” Grand Tamasha, June 4, 2025.3. “The Indian American Vote in 2024 (with Sumitra Badrinathan and Devesh Kapur),” Grand Tamasha, November 6, 2024.4. “What to read about Hindutva,” The Economist, April 5, 2024.

Indira Gandhi did not need to introduce new laws to give the Emergency teeth; such provisions already existed.  

#cuttheclutter Fifty years ago, then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi imposed a nationwide Emergency that lasted almost 21 months. It had both intended and unintended consequences.

On June 25, 1975, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi declared a state of Emergency in India—an era marked by censorship, arrests, and a suspension of civil liberties. While the resistance within India is well-documented, far less is known about how Indians abroad responded. In this episode, on the 50th anniversary of the Emergency, host Sandip Roy speaks with journalist Sugata Srinivasaraju, author of The Conscience Network, and Professor Anand Kumar, who helped form the group Indians for Democracy in the US. Together, they reflect on how the diaspora stood up to authoritarianism from afar—challenging the narrative, organizing protests, and showing that the fight for democracy crossed national borders.Produced by Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar

Indira Gandhi's ascent as prime minister of India in 1966 seems obvious with the benefit of hindsight, but it was entirely unforeseen at the time.Within years—if not months—she emerged as one of the most powerful political leaders of her era—serving as prime minister for fifteen years, leaving behind a complex and deeply controversial legacy.A new book by the historian Srinath Raghavan, Indira Gandhi and the Years that Transformed India, unpacks that legacy, uncovering fresh material that challenges much of the conventional wisdom we've accumulated over the years.Srinath is professor of international relations and history at Ashoka University and nonresident scholar at Carnegie India. He is the author of several celebrated books, including India's War: The Making of Modern South Asia and Fierce Enigmas: A History of the United States in South Asia.He joins Milan on the show this week to discuss Gandhi's unforeseen right to power, the daunting conditions which greeted her premiership, and her improvisatory leadership during the 1971 war. Plus, the two discuss Gandhi's mixed economic legacy, the onset of the Emergency, and how our understanding of the “long 1970s” must be updated.Episode notes:1.

Over the last few decades, humanity has globalized everything – from food production and supply chains to communication and information systems – making countries, businesses, and individuals more connected and reliant on each other than ever before. Yet, with this increased interconnectedness comes more complexity and fragility. What have we lost through the globalization process, and how might we fortify our communities by investing in local economies?  In this episode, Nate is joined by Helena Norberg-Hodge – a leading voice in the localization movement – to explore the deep systemic challenges posed by economic globalization. Together, they examine how the global growth model has fueled environmental degradation, social fragmentation, and cultural erosion, and why shifting toward localized economies might be one of the most effective (and overlooked) responses to our predicament. Drawing on decades of firsthand experience, Helena invites us to question the assumptions underpinning our globalized lives and imagine a future rooted in local reconnection. How might we rekindle a sense of enough in a world that constantly tells us we need more? As globalization begins to retreat, what small but meaningful steps can we take to relocalize our lives and reconnect with each other? And what kind of futures might be possible if we centered our communities around systems that regenerate the very places we call home? (Conversation recorded on May 7th, 2025)    About Helena Norberg-Hodge: Linguist, author and filmmaker, Helena Norberg-Hodge is the founder and director of the international non-profit organisation, Local Futures.

In this Telugu Podcast episode with Major SPS Oberoi, we uncover the real truth behind Indira Gandhi's assassination, the rise of the Khalistani separatist movement, and the complex role of the Sikh community in India's military, history, and politics. From being the backbone of the Indian Army to facing one of the most painful betrayals during Operation Bluestar, the Sikh identity has been both celebrated and challenged.We go deeper into how the partition of India and Pakistan shaped Punjab's volatile history, referencing the emotional and cultural impact seen in works like Train to Pakistan. The demand for a separate Khalistan was not just internal, it was actively supported and funded by elements sheltered in the US, UK, Canada, and Germany, allegedly to apply diplomatic and strategic pressure on India.This episode features firsthand insights from a retired Indian Army veteran, who breaks down how RAW (Research and Analysis Wing) became one of the world's most powerful intelligence agencies. From the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation, 1974 nuclear test, to integrating the Sikh identity into the national fold, RAW's operations have shaped modern Indian geopolitics. You'll learn how agents are trained to control the subconscious mind, why they operate in secrecy, and how a tailor shop in Mumbai served as a secret Israeli embassy. We discuss how agents report directly to the PMO, their finances remain outside scrutiny, and the shocking depth of their missions, including spoiling Turkey's weapons export dreams.We also expose how Pakistan's military works like a corporate empire, supporting terror groups, owning businesses, and manipulating information through information warfare. From Operation Sindhoor to Balakot airstrikes, Abhinandan's capture, and India's strategic mastery in psychological operations, you'll see how India is no longer just defending, but outsmarting.Explore the reality of modern warfare, where no one really wins, and war has become a profitable business. Despite global silence during major Indian operations, the episode questions whether it's time for India to rethink its foreign policy. Why did we not reclaim Kashmir even after Kasab openly admitted Pakistan's involvement in the 26/11 Mumbai attacks? Why is Pakistan still considered a poster boy for US foreign strategy, and why is every Indian victory followed by a forced ceasefire?But this podcast goes beyond geopolitics and strategy. It's an emotional, personal journey. Our guest opens up about the hardest part of army life, sending a fellow soldier's body home. He shares the emotional bond among soldiers, their sacrifices, and the harsh truth that MPs get pensions after a single day in Parliament, while a soldier might not after ten years of service. We talk about how Sikhs continue to dominate military enlistment, driven by their culture, principles, and identity.We also address life after the army, the transition, the struggles, the respect, and the goals that remain unshaken. Currently working as an academic advisor at EKAM, he opens up about UPSC struggles, parenting challenges, and the pressure on middle-class aspirants. You'll hear about real UPSC competition insights, how to learn deeply, the importance of Brahma Muhurtam, and why honesty is a non-negotiable value.From Cambrian Patrol victories in 2021 and 2023 to learning how India honors its war field ethics and handles POWs beyond the Geneva Convention, this episode is packed with value---emotionally, intellectually, and strategically.If you want to understand India's national security, intelligence agencies, military mindset, and the real impact of geopolitics on everyday lives, this episode is unmissable. Whether you're a UPSC aspirant, a patriot, a history buff, or just someone curious about the truth behind headlines, this episode might be your next best guide.

What Really Happened Inside Darbar Sahib in June 1984?In this powerful first-hand account, Bibi Satwant Kaur Ji – daughter of Bhai Amrik Singh Ji and granddaughter of Sant Giani Kartar Singh Ji – shares her emotional experience of the attack on Sri Darbar Sahib during Operation Blue Star.

A version of this essay has been published by firstpost.com at https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/shadow-warrior-india-fights-alone-narrative-wars-western-gaslighting-and-a-missed-opportunity-13891339.htmlFrom the 1st of May until the 20th I was traveling in the US, and thus had to depend on western media (mostly Twitter/X) for news about Operation Sindoor and the aftermath. It was self-evident that there was no point in reading things like the NYTimes, Wapo, the Economist, etc. because one look at their headlines confirmed that they were “manufacturing consent”.Soft PowerGiven the difference in X posts that I read in the US and those in India, I think the algorithms were deprecating posts for me in ways that are hard to detect. In other words, there is a narrative war where India has no say, but lots at stake. India's soft power is seriously wanting. Joseph Nye, the academic who popularized that phrase, passed away this week: following in his footsteps, it behooves India to make a concerted attempt to improve its story-telling.It faces an uphill battle, because Western, especially American, media has shown an ability to gaslight at scale in three major stories in the recent past: the COVID panic, the “Trump-is-a-Russian-stooge” meme, and the “Biden is mentally sharp as a tack” story. They are good at it, have no love lost for India, and so India needs a long-term plan to get its own propaganda story out, for instance developing an Al-Jazeera-style global footprint or an X-style social medium.The entire Western narrative, for self-serving purposes, continues to be against India, for good reason: they do not wish to see India grow into a peer-level competitor at the G3 level. In this, both China and the West are of one mind, and it shows. Besides, the West has every incentive to try to block India from becoming a major arms exporter: they would prefer India to continue to be one of the biggest importers, preferably from them.Narrative warfare is a Western specialty, as I said in Information Warfare, Narrative-Building: That Kind of Warfare. In addition to kinetic warfare, India needs to up its game here too. Narratives have real-life consequences.The Pakistanis have been quite successful in their own narratives, riding on Western media: here is an example from the Nikkei (which owns the Financial Times) from a Pakistani journalist. This is typical of the stories created by Pakistanis and amplified by western media: basically that India took a major hit, with five or six high-end aircraft downed by Pakistani/Chinese weaponry. The story was repeated so many times that it essentially became the Truth.A step change in aerial warfareMy personal belief is that India won a victory on the ground and in the air, humiliating Pakistan, attacking it at will and exposing its Chinese armaments as below-par. Some thoughtful neutral experts support this view: See Calibrated Force and the Future of Indian Deterrence. India also demonstrated surprising competence in the new age of electronics-based warfare. It may no longer be expensive fighter jets (and by extension, aircraft carriers) that tilt the balance, but missiles, drones and integrated air defense.This must be emphasized. There are periodic step-functions in warfare that render earlier, victorious technologies/processes less valuable: this is similar to disruptive innovation, where the ‘insurgent' firm nullifies the apparent advantages of the ‘incumbent' firm. Often that means a point of inflection. An example is the arrival of the longbow in medieval times that made hitherto unstoppable heavy cavalry stumble. Another is the arrival of air power itself.Today there may be another point of inflection. Experts have suggested that warfare going forward will be software-driven, including drone swarms that can autonomously reshape their formations (reminiscent of the murmurations of flocks of starlings). Presumably, there will be plenty of predictive AI built in as well. Given India's poor track record in software products, it was generally assumed that India would not do so well in such a new environment.In reality, there appears to have been a clever integration of indigenous and imported technology to create an “iron dome” of sorts against Pakistan's Chinese missiles, of which an advanced variant, PL-15, was apparently shot down intact.More interestingly, it appears that Lakshya and Banshee drones were programmed to masquerade as Rafales, Sukhois, etc. by emitting their radar signals, thus attracting enemy fire towards themselves. This might explain the claims of five or six Indian aircraft shot down by Pakistan, whereas in reality they may have simply shot down the phantom, mimic dronesThe implications are large: in effect, India was able to attack Pakistan at will: video evidence shows significant damage to terrorist sites in the first round, and to military sites in the second round, including to key Pakistani air bases, as well as, it is said, the entrance tunnel to the nuclear storage facilities in the Kirana Hills. Indian air dominance appears to have forced the Pakistanis to beg for US support to suggest a cessation of hostilities.This skirmish was proof in the heat of battle for India's indigenous weapons, especially the BrahMos (although of course that is a joint venture with Russia). It may result in a number of serious queries from prospective customers especially in Southeast Asia, who will be interested in battlefield performance against Chinese missiles and aircraft. This would be a win for India's arms industry.Conversely, there is a singular sore spot: fighter jets. For a variety of reasons, most especially the fact that the Kaveri engine has not been allowed to complete its testing and development phase, India is still dependent on others for advanced fighters. And this is just fine as far as they are concerned, because the Americans want to sell F-35s, the French want to sell more Rafales, and the Russians want to sell Su-57s.Here's a twitter comment by a military historian who suggests that India's fighter jets are inadequate. He deleted his further comment that indigenization is fine as industrial policy, but it doesn't work for advanced weaponry. This is a typically sniffy attitude towards India, which is grist to the mill for the Chandigarh Lobby's successful efforts to trash local weapons and gain lucrative middleman deals for foreign weapons.Strategic Dilemma: To push on or notThere is also a strategic dilemma. India has an unfortunate habit of wasting its soldiers' hard-won victories at the negotiating table due to bad political calculations. The epitome of this is of course, Indira Gandhi's 1971 give-away of 93,000 Pakistani PoWs in exchange for essentially… nothing. There is some reason to wonder if something similar happened in 2025 as well. A tactical victory was possibly converted into a stalemate, and the old era of hyphenation and the nuclear bogey has returned.What we saw in 2025 was that the Pakistanis were taken by surprise, and India had a massive advantage. But now that cat is out of the bag, Pakistanis and Chinese will regroup and figure out corrective tactics. Thus India has, to use an American expression, “shot its wad”, and the element of surprise is gone forever.The end game for India is the dissolution of Pakistan into four or five statelets, which, one hopes, will then concentrate on Pakistani Punjab as the root of all their troubles. In that case, they will keep each other occupied, and India can live in peace without regular terrorist attacks. Of course, that may be a pipe-dream, given the Ghazwa-e-Hind formula many entertain, but the collapse of the Pakistani state is anyway desirable for India.Should India have continued its offensive? Forget the murky issue of the nuclear assets in Sargodha. Should India have moved the Line of Control forward into some areas, perhaps into Gilgit-Baltistan (with Sharda Peeth and the Kishenganga) and up to the Jhelum River in Pak-occupied Jammu and Kashmir? The problem though, is that once you start moving past the border posts, you have hostile civilians to contend with, and your supply lines start getting stretched.Even though it is tragic to let go of an opportunity to thrash an enemy that's on the back foot, and Pakistan will inevitably use the truce to rearm itself and come back ever stronger (the Treaty of Hudaybiyah is not a meme in the Islamic world for nothing), it is not clear to me what India could have done to militarily make the LOC irrelevant and make Pakistan implode, especially in the context of American pushback.The role of the USWhy was there pressure from President Trump? One of the things I observed during my US stay is the total absence of DOGE and Elon Musk from the headlines after Trump's 100 days, very contrary to their ubiquity early on. Similarly, the security implications of Trump's recent embrace of Syria's President Al-Sharaa contradicts Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's views on Syria as evidenced by her tweets. Further, there are U-turns on tariffs.This means Trump is being mercurial as ever. Furthermore, there might be something to the idea that his family's embrace of crypto may have endeared Pakistan – which is making noises about supporting crypto at scale – to him. All this is red-pilling many about Trump. Indeed, he may be allowing short-term, commercial considerations to drive policy, which may return to haunt the US: that is exactly what Clinton, Bush, Obama et al did with respect to China.On the other hand, there are longer-term considerations, too. Pakistan is essentially a Potemkin nation, which has no particular reason to exist, other than it is being propped up. Initially, it was a British project for the Russian Great Game; then it was taken over by the US Deep State in order to fend off the Soviet Union. Pakistan was a “major non-NATO ally” (MNNA) according to Obama if I remember right, and earlier it was a member of CENTO and SEATO.The IMF loan to Pakistan, approved in the middle of the hostilities, is not surprising, either: this has happened before. In a way, it is a complicated money-laundering activity. Funds from somewhere (possibly Qatar) are channeled to Pakistan, which then buys American arms. Thus the Deep State Military Industrial Complex is the winner.With the end of the Afghanistan wars, Pakistan offers no obvious geographic and strategic value to the US. Unless, of course, the target is no longer Russia, but India. Perhaps in anticipation of its being a check on India, the US had helped Pakistan nuclearize, according to this archived article from the NYTimes: US and China Helped Pakistan Build Its Bomb, from a time when it was possibly more truthful. I am indebted to Brahma Chellaney for this link.This may suggest that Pakistan's nuclear ‘assets' are not theirs, but are managed by American crew. On the other hand, though, the greater possibility is that such assets are loaned by China. Pakistan is a fantastic force multiplier for China.Abhimanyu SyndromeThe bottom line, then, is that India is on its own: sort of an Abhimanyu Syndrome, with nobody to help. The most obvious ‘friend' is Japan (because of the China threat), but it is severely constrained by American red lines: see how there was not a murmur from the Quad after Pahalgam. India's very possible rise is in fact encouraging other powers to put it down: grow so much, but no farther.There really is no alternative for India but to industrialize, manufacture everything possible for its large internal market, and increase the level of strategic autonomy in everything it makes: no more dependence on third parties, which may feel free to use kill switches, or deny spares or components at will. In this round, India did surprisingly well with indigenous technology, and it has articulated a strategy of escalating deterrence. To put teeth into this, innovation at home must continue.Here's the AI-generated podcast about this episode from notebookLM.google.com: 1975 words, 22 May 2025 This is a public episode.

CutTheClutter: 50 yrs of Sikkim integration: How it became Indian state & Indira Gandhi's Himalyan borderlands plan

On the 107th birth anniversary of India's 10th President, the late Giani Zail Singh, Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta discusses his humour, bungling of issues & loyalty towards Indira Gandhi in contrast with his smart politics, troublesome equation with Rajiv Gandhi & tough decisions, in this edition of FirstPersonSecondDraft.

The BJP is accustomed to justifying its actions by harking back to the rule of Indira Gandhi when then-Andhra Pradesh Governor Thakur Ram Lal dismissed the Telugu Desam government in 1984.  

This is the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I am Ichha Sharma.Today is the 22nd of April and here are today's headlines.En route to Jeddah today for a two-day visit to Saudi Arabia, Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the nation as “one of India's most valued partners — a maritime neighbour, a trusted friend and a strategic ally”. He also said that the partnership between the two countries has “limitless potential”. Modi is set to meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman tonight, where both leaders are expected to discuss expanding cooperation in an array of crucial areas, such as energy, defence and trade, besides expediting Riyadh's $100 billion investment plan for India. Besides bilateral ties, the two leaders will also exchange views on pressing regional and global issues, including the overall situation in West Asia.In the first high-level visit from the White House since the inauguration of President Donald Trump in January, US Vice-President J D Vance met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday and both sides “welcomed the significant progress” in negotiations towards a India-US bilateral trade pact, framing it as a “new and modern trade agreement.” Vance today praised India's heritage and strategic partnership with the US, saying, “I believe there is much that the US and India can accomplish together.” Speaking in Jaipur, he noted that both nations are working toward a bilateral trade agreement based on shared priorities. Referring to past policies, Vance said, “We are not here to preach,” and highlighted President Trump's vision to “rebalance global trade” and “build a bright new world” with partners like India. At least eight people, including tourists, were injured in a suspected militant attack in south Kashmir's Pahalgam today. Sources said two of the injured are critical. According to sources, militants opened fire on tourists at Baisaran, an off-the-road meadow in Pahalgam. Baisaran is a popular destination among tourists. Police sources said that at least eight people, including tourists, were injured in the shootout. Police sources said the number of injured could increase.A few days after warning against judicial overreach, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar emphasised today that Parliament is supreme, and elected representatives are the final arbiters of the Constitution. Addressing a gathering at an event called ‘Kartavyam' in Delhi University, marking 75 years of the Constitution, Dhankhar said, “There is no visualisation in Constitution of any authority above Parliament… elected representatives… They are the ultimate masters as to what (the) Constitution content will be.” He referred to Indira Gandhi's imposition of the Emergency in 1975 and her electoral defeat in 1977 to underscore how elected representatives are most accountable to the public.Gold prices are glittering above the Rs 1 lakh-level per 10 gm for the first time as the international prices surged after US President Donald Trump unveiled plans to overhaul the Federal Reserve. Gold consolidated its position as the best safe haven asset in the volatile global financial markets. The price of 24-karat gold (999 fineness) was quoted at Rs 1,00,000 per 10 gm in the Mumbai bullion market today. The price of 22 karat gold was quoted at Rs 91,600 per 10 gm on Tuesday as global markets continued to remain jittery over the Trump's tariff plans and his threat to revamp the US Fed that could lead to a spike in inflation and interest rates.US President Donald Trump is facing a significant dip in his economic approval ratings, with his performance on the economy registering the lowest numbers of his presidency. According to the latest CNBC All-America Economic Survey, broad discontent over issues like tariffs, inflation, and government spending has contributed to this decline. The surge of economic optimism that followed Trump's election in 2024 has all but disappeared, with more Americans now predicting that the economy will worsen, a stark shift from the hopeful outlook that marked earlier years. The survey revealed a sharp turn towards pessimism about the stock market as well, with many feeling uncertain about future economic prospects.This was the Catch Up on 3 Things by The Indian Express

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Biswo Nath Poudel, a distinguished economist and former Vice Chair of Nepal's National Planning Commission, to explore the complex and often turbulent political history of Nepal. From the rise of B.P. Koirala, Nepal's first democratically elected prime minister, to the 2017 B.S. coup led by King Mahendra, we dive deep into the events that shaped modern Nepal. The discussion highlights how the Panchayat system in Nepal was established and the various rebellions and guerrilla movements that followed in an attempt to restore democracy. We also cover the return of B.P. Koirala in 2023 B.S., his ideological stance, and his role in resisting the monarchy. Dr. Poudel shares insights into the 2046 B.S. revolution, the 2036 B.S. referendum, and the rising India-Nepal political tensions, including Indira Gandhi's role during King Mahendra's reign. We also discuss the history of Nepal's student unions, the romanticization of communist leaders in Nepal, and how key Nepali leaders like King Birendra rose through the ranks. If you're interested in Nepal's democratic journey, historical rebellions, and the evolution of Nepal's political system, this episode is a must-watch.

King Mahendra of Nepal remains one of the most controversial and influential figures in Nepal's history. In this podcast, we explore his leadership, diplomacy, and economic policies, diving deep into his role in shaping Nepal's industrialization, tourism, and Panchayat system. Was King Mahendra autocratic, or was he a visionary leader who modernized Nepal? We discuss his political rivalry with BP Koirala, the Panchayat system, and the economic policies of King Mahendra that transformed Nepal. His impact on Nepal's tourism development, including his vision for Mount Everest and Mahendra Cave, played a crucial role in boosting Nepal's economy. A major topic of debate is why Nepal banned cannabis despite its historical and cultural significance. We uncover how the royal family used cannabis legally and the political pressures that led to its prohibition. Additionally, we analyze Indira Gandhi and King Mahendra's diplomatic clashes, shedding light on Nepal's foreign relations history. Was King Mahendra a dictator, or did his leadership bring long-term stability? Join us as we break down his vision, policies, and the lasting impact of Nepal's monarchy.

That India had to warm up to the West is an idea that had been brewing since Indira Gandhi's return in 1980. Singh's success lay in making the same shift much more decisively at the head of a Congress government. It was also audacious, in my book even more so than the 1991 reform, given how little support this had within his party and among the UPA partners.

On December 3rd, 1971, India and Pakistan go to war on two fronts, battling for the future of Bangladesh. In the East, the Indian army races against time, hoping to capture Dacca and force a Pakistani surrender before the United Nations can demand a ceasefire. Meanwhile, Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger unleash a fusillade of diplomatic pressure to frighten a defiant Indira Gandhi into compliance. After months of imprisonment, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman learns what has happened to his country. The war ends, and a new era begins.  SOURCES: Bass, Gary K.

I have been an entrepreneur from 2012-2017 building two products AddoDoc and Babygogo. After selling my company to SHEROES, I and my partner Nansi decided to start up again. But we felt unequipped in our skillset in 2018 to build a large company. We had known 0-1 journeys from our startups but lacked the experience of building 1-10 journeys. Hence was born The Neon Show (Earlier 100x Entrepreneur) to learn from founders and investors, the mindset to scale yourself and your company. This quest still keeps us excited even after 5 years and doing 200+ episodes.We welcome you to our journey to understand what goes behind building a super successful company. Every episode is done with a very selfish motive, that I and Nansi should come out as a better entrepreneur and professional after absorbing the learnings.------Check us out on:Website: https://neon.fund/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theneonshoww/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/beneon/Twitter: https://x.com/TheNeonShowwConnect with Siddhartha on:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/siddharthaahluwalia/Twitter: https://x.com/siddharthaa7------This video is for informational purposes only.

¿Qué tienen en común Los Beatles, John F. Kennedy e Indira Gandhi? No es fácil acertar. Todos fueron influenciados por las palabras del poeta libanés Khalil Gibrán. El hombre murió en 1931, pero aún hoy es considerado en su país como un héroe literario. Su libro “El profeta” apareció en 1923 y, desde entonces, nunca dejó de publicarse. Fue traducido a 50 idiomas y es uno de esos libros llenos de sabiduría, capaz de hablarnos sobre cuestiones fundamentales de la vida. Esos libros que se pueden regalar a un amor, con motivo de un nacimiento o a una persona que perdió a un ser querido. En Occidente se lo tildó de simplista, de inocente, de carente de sustancia... Pero Gibrán es uno de esos escritores inoxidables. Alguien que ofrecía en sus escritos un espiritualismo universal sin dogma. Quizá en contraposición a la ortodoxia religiosa. Como una pequeña muestra de esa escritura, acá va una carta de Gibrán a su amiga y mecenas Mary Haskell. Lee el actor y locutor Galo Balcázar. *** Para vivir es necesario coraje. Tanto la semilla intacta como la que rompe su cáscara tienen las mismas propiedades. Sin embargo, sólo la que rompe su cáscara es capaz de lanzarse a la aventura de la vida. Esta aventura requiere una única osadía: descubrir que no se puede vivir a través de la experiencia de los otros, y estar dispuesto a entregarse. No se puede tener los ojos de uno, los oídos de otro, para saber de antemano lo que va a ocurrir; cada existencia es diferente de la otra. No importa lo que me espera, yo deseo estar con el corazón abierto para recibir. Que yo no tenga miedo de poner mi brazo en el hombro de alguien, hasta que me lo corten. Que yo no tema hacer algo que nadie hizo antes. Déjenme ser tonto hoy, porque la tontería es todo lo que tengo para dar esta mañana; me pueden reprender por eso, pero no tiene importancia. Mañana, quién sabe, yo seré menos tonto. Cuando dos personas se encuentran, deben ser como dos lirios acuáticos, que se abren de lado a lado cada una mostrando su corazón dorado, y reflejando el lago, las nubes y los cielos. No logro entender por qué un encuentro genera siempre lo contrario de esto: Corazones cerrados y temor a los sufrimientos. Cada vez que estamos juntos, conversamos durante varias horas seguidas. Si pretendemos pasar juntos todo ese tiempo, es importante no tratar de esconder nada… y mantener los pétalos bien abiertos.

El periodismo como contrapoder es una máxima que se hizo realidad en Oriana Fallaci. Mujer fuerte, con la energía necesaria para ejercer un periodismo libre e independiente, Fallaci es considerada un referente y la primera reportera global.Su carrera está marcada por una mezcla de olfato periodístico y tenacidad. Alcanzó fama gracias a sus entrevistas a las figuras de Hollywood y más tarde a líderes mundiales como Indira Gandhi, Yasir Arafat, Golda Meir, Willy Brandt, Henry Kissinger, el Sha de Persia Reza Pahleví, Muamar el Gadafi o el ayatolá Jomeiní. En ellas pretendía buscar la verdad que se escondía tras el personaje y no eludía la lucha dialéctica.Fallaci no ocultaba su opinión y, debido a su combativo carácter, se situó en el centro de muchas polémicas, pero era seguida con interés y sus relatos se convertían rápidamente en best sellers como Penélope en guerra o Si el sol muere.Criticó la dictadura de Franco y las de América Latina y vivió los conflictos más destacados de su tiempo, como la guerra de Vietnam o las protestas estudiantiles de México en 1968, donde cayó herida por tres disparos.Fallaci recorrió el mundo dejando constancia de la situación de la mujer y de sus derechos. Esto le llevó a situarse frente al Islam. En su libro Inshallah, inspirado en la matanza del atentado de Beirut de 1983, agudiza su anti islamismo. Y tras los atentados del 11S publicó una serie de artículos donde no discriminaba entre fanáticos y moderados que le valieron numerosas críticas.El documental, con la firma de Modesta Cruz, desgrana la fuerte personalidad de Oriana Fallaci y entra en su fondo humano, a pesar de su dura apariencia. Lo hace con la ayuda de la directora del Instituto Italiano de Cultura de Madrid, María Luisa Pappalardo, y de los profesores Francisco Cabezuelo y Carolina Abellán. Asimismo, el programa recupera del Archivo de RTVE la voz de la propia Oriana Fallaci.Escuchar audio
