I argue in an interaction on China with @moneycontrolcom's @ShivaniSinghRna: India's recent powerplay with US & Beijing reflects strategic maturity, calibrated shift & subtle signalling that it wud maintain its interest without imposing its own on others. youtube.com/watch?v=PfvDyd…

I wrote this detailed letter to the editor, backed by facts. No response. As a #farmer, I’m tired of being spoken about but never with. The @ChannelNewsAsia piece on #GMCrops is full of misinformation. #Btcotton helped us. Why deny us #GMmustard & maize? #LetRealFarmersDecide

A patient walked into the casualty at GMC Goa demanding Inj Vit B12. B12 is not an emergency, it can be taken anywhere, even after days of delay. The CMO allegedly directed the patient to a CHC. Turns out, the patient was related to a journalist with direct access to Goa Health…
सर्वोम बिल्डर के विरुद्ध इन गंभीर विषय पर 4-5 बार रिमाइंडर देने पर अभी भी कोई कार्य नहीं हो रहा, 650 वर्गफुट कारपेट एरिया पर बारबार मेंटेनेंस चार्ज मनमाने तारिको से बडॉतरी की गई और अनावश्यक 6 किलोवाट लोड की बिजली सप्लाई दी जा रही है जिसपे बिल्डर मनमाने तरीके से यूनिट रेट ले सके।

With due respect @SushantSin the Americans, Russians, Chinese, even Israelis are all engaging with radical Islamists who killed and targeted them. I don't know what school of realism would term finding political common ground with Taliban on opposing terrorism as desperation.
