Unfortunately Indian Journalists are showing least possible imaginative skills. Either they are doing it intentionally or they have lost this skill in the course…

    Why this Kolaveri Di?

    Back in 2014, the intellectual class in India came up with a variety of sophisticated connotations for BJP’s overwhelming majority of 282 seats. They said it was “a black swan moment” or “in the era of coalition politics it was a fluke”. And here we are in 2019, with BJP surpassing its own personal record.…

    The Cash Nexus: Criminals and Politics

    Almost every person who disproves demonetization comes with one of the two arguments: Black money is stashed in Swiss Banks and is not in India.

    On November 30, 2016 Magnus Carlsen from Norway defended his World Chess Championship against Sergey Karjakin from Russia with a magnificent checkmate to end the 16th game of the match. It was a magnificent checkmate because he sacrificed his queen to win the game. (If he would not have sacrificed his queen, he would have…

    Congress’ loathing of social media & the strategy to win 2019!!!

    For the entire last year, I kept thinking only one thing: What is Congress’ strategy to win 2019? I could see BJP’s plan to win the election. They have been highlighting their good governance model. I am not at all validating if what they say is true or not. My point is that they had…
