“Mr. Jinnah was not involved in the fight for Independence, not at all. In fact he opposed it.” “Muslim League was started really by the British, encouraged by them to create sections among us. They did succeed to some extent. And ultimately, there came the Partition.”


Nothing much is happening. Unexciting and certain times. Won’t be active for a while.


Wannabe Dictator of a patch smaller than Delhi, population half of Mumbai, mostly Chinese running authoritative regime for decades is not the best analyst for the country size of India. Yes India is so diverse, even Indians spend lifetime figuring it out. Most native brilliant…

I don't think this is an India vs Singapore conversation, more India vs China. While India has many religious unifying ties historically, apart from the ad hominem "not a real country", LKY was trying to speak to the diversity of language, culture, ethnicity and religion.



Yeah that historical love for Beijing is the reason Singapore is the place where you can find largest number of staunch CCP sympathisers outside China.

"No. Do not talk about India and China in the same breath. India is not a real country. Instead, it is 32 separate nations that happen to be arrayed along the British rail line." — Lee Kuan Yew, founding father of Singapore



Maharashtra and Gujarat should ideally sign strategic agreement for 20-30yrs, jointly bid for large projects, investment, lower the cost of debt, spin out venture funds, Banks, specialised universities, form equitable development goals, reverse market leverage. Expand the pie.

In a stable econopolitical climate, Gujarat and Maharashtra together will be absolute beasts of Modern India. Can overwhelm anyone on this side of the hemisphere. We are talking of economic powerhouse with 2000Kms coastline. So far we’ve barely scratched that potential.

The UAE, Jordan, Egypt and Saudis see Gaza mainly in terms of their paranoia about the Muslim Brotherhood (of which they see Hamas as an offshoot). Their main concern was that Gaza was inflaming their citizen's opinions, complicating matters for them.


Arab countries hate Palestinians more than anybody. Biden being himself isn’t new.

Just finished Bob Woodward's "War". A few takeaways. Biden and Harris detest Netanyahu and privately tried to discourage him from attacking Gaza, but Netanyahu received encouragement to "destroy Hamas" from the Jordanians, UAE, Saudis and Egyptians.

Voting in imperfect democracy is better than succumbing to governance of terrorist organisation which uses you as human shield.

Stop for a moment and compare a people who even try to save kittens amid their own genocide with the people who sit in America and vote for the perpetrators because they’re afraid of Trump.

I submit this to the people telling me, North Indian labor will settle in South and help southern states to suck up labor shortage. It's always a dream. Kerala should understand this and do market reforms soon

Chennai Metro Rail construction sites face 40% worker shortage Workers from Jharkhand Chattisgarh West Bengal who went home to cast votes in April for elections have not returned. They’ve found jobs in infrastructure projects in North India. thehindu.com/news/cities/ch…



Happy Diwali folks. May goddess Laxmi bless you and your family with loads of happiness and prosperity!
