In the Lok Sabha elections of 2024, given the absence of any explicit political wave, nobody can really tell which way the verdict will go. But irrespective of the outcome, there are clear signs the country is entering a new, more turbulent era and also one shifting away from the politics of the recent past.
You Can’t Turn Back the Clock on Genocide: “Easily 200,000 Deaths in Gaza”. Also: “We Will Rebuild Again” – Palestinians Scream at Israel’s Carnage of Jabalia.
The battle being fought by Palestine, particularly in Gaza, is a civilisational battle… a battle for all humanity.
The progressive leader is making history as the first woman president in North America and has vowed to follow in the footsteps of her colleague President López Obrador in building an anti-neoliberal economic development model.
Today we are facing a revivalist moment in our political history, ironically, as a free nation. It is a defeatist hangover of history to create a wedge between what we named and what named us. We adopted these names for centuries out of a spirit we call Indian, or Bharatiya.
Raging arguments over who was indeed Indian were put to rest with a vote that spoke in favour of an Article 5 without religious markers.
The exclusion and criminalisation of Muslim citizens through laws and state action are not as explicit as in Nazi Germany, but they violate the Constitution.
Parliamentary procedures have been tossed aside as an increasing number of laws are passed with little or no debate.
There is little reason to believe that a third term for Modi will result in the revival of Indian scientific research and innovation.
PM AASHA, a crop price support scheme, saw real spending only in the months around 2019 and 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Three years in between the two general elections, the government did not spend a single rupee on the scheme.
