India and the United States  appear to be moving steadily toward a long-awaited trade agreement, with Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal  offering a carefully optimistic assessment. Speaking at the 22nd Indo-US Economic Summit, Goyal  affirmed that both nations are “equally committed” to strengthening commercial ties, but stressed that India will only move forward once the terms ensure fairness and protect the country’s core interests. His message was clear: progress

The Bihar  Assembly Election 2025 was not an ordinary contest. It marked a decisive shift in political behaviour, voter expectations and the very framework through which power is negotiated in the state. Bihar’s  voters did not merely choose a new government; they chose a new political logic — one rooted in delivery, welfare and performance, rather than the symbolic politics and caste-rigid templates that dominated the state for nearly three decades. For years, successive gov

India’s history is marked not only by the valour of its celebrated male warriors but also by the extraordinary courage of its women, who consistently stood at the forefront of defending the nation and preserving its spiritual ethos. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s  recent remarks in Lucknow  brought this truth into renewed focus as he declared that Indian women have “never lagged behind in protecting the nation and its religion.” His tribute to freedom fighter Uda Devi Pasi

The 2025 Bihar  Assembly elections reshaped the state’s political landscape, placing the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) at the centre of power for the first time. The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) secured an overwhelming majority, winning 202 of 243 seats, while the BJP emerged as the single-largest party. This dramatic transformation did not happen by chance. It was the result of a precise, layered, and deeply coordinated strategy led by Union Home Minister Amit Shah . Hi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s  visit to Coimbatore marked a significant milestone in India’s journey toward sustainable, low-input farming. At the CODISSIA Trade Fair Complex, the Prime Minister inaugurated the South India Natural Farming Summit 2025, an event designed to accelerate the country’s transition toward chemical-free agriculture. The summit brought together thousands of farmers, scientists, agri-startups, producer groups and policymakers from across South India, u

In an unexpected yet remarkable display of cross-party acknowledgement, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor  recently praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi  for articulating a compelling vision of India’s future. The remarks came after Modiji’s  sixth Ramnath Goenka Lecture, where the Prime Minister presented a forward-looking narrative that Tharoor described as bold, culturally rooted, and transformative. Tharoor’s praise highlights a rare moment of admiration that transcends conventi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi , speaking at the Sixth Ramnath Goenka Lecture, urged India to embark on a ten-year national mission to eliminate what he called the “Macaulay mindset” — a lingering colonial-era psychological framework that, he argued, continues to influence India’s education, culture and outlook. Drawing attention to Thomas Babington Macaulay’s 1835 Minute on Indian Education, Modiji  said that the British deliberately engineered an intellectual disconnect betwe

Bihar  is witnessing yet another major political transition as the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) prepares to form the next government after a sweeping victory in the 2025 Assembly elections.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s  remarks at the sixth Ramnath Goenka Lecture signal a clear shift in how India sees itself and how it wants the world to view its progress. He argued that India is no longer just an emerging market waiting to join the league of developed economies. Instead, it is an emerging model—a country offering its own blueprint for sustainable growth, resilient governance, and people-centric development. This distinction underscores India’s ambition to mov

A Strange Quiet After a Loud Election India just witnessed one of the most high-voltage election seasons in recent years, yet the moment the BJP-led NDA swept to power, a strange and deliberate quiet descended across major media spaces. Debate panels that were shouting for weeks suddenly appear muted. Outlets that ran daily predictions, allegations and “breaking news” controversies now look like they’ve collectively switched to silent mode. And this silence is not accidental.

India and Canada  have taken a decisive step toward rebuilding a strained diplomatic and economic relationship by reviving their Ministerial Dialogue on Trade and Investment (MDTI). Held in New Delhi from 11 to 14 November 2025, the meeting brought together India’s Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal  and Canada’s Minister of Export Promotion, International Trade and Economic Development, Maninder Sidhu. This marks the first significant trade engagement since diplomat

Bihar’s  2025 Assembly election has delivered one of the most decisive mandates the state has seen in decades. The National Democratic Alliance (NDA), led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and supported by Nitish Kumar’s Janata Dal (United), crossed the two-thirds majority mark with ease. Early trends and final counts combined suggest the alliance is poised to control over 200 seats in the 243-member assembly—an emphatic endorsement of their governance narrative. On the oth

The Red Fort  car explosion that shook Delhi  on November 10, 2025 continues to widen in scope, revealing a sophisticated terror network operating far beyond the capital. In one of the most dramatic developments so far, security agencies demolished the Pulwama home of the prime suspect, Dr Umar un-Nabi, during late-night operations in South Kashmir. The two-storey structure in Koil village was brought down using controlled explosives after investigators confirmed Umar’s role

The capital of India was rocked on the evening of November 10, 2025, when a powerful car explosion erupted near Gate 1 of the Red Fort  Metro Station. The blast tore through a busy stretch of Old Delhi, killing at least eight people and injuring over twenty. Shattered glass, mangled vehicles, and flames painted a grim picture just meters away from one of India’s most iconic landmarks — a place that has long stood as a symbol of freedom and resilience. According to early inves

After concluding his two-day state visit to Bhutan , Prime Minister Narendra Modi  wasted no time. Landing in Delhi, he went straight to Lok Nayak Jai Prakash (LNJP) Hospital to meet those injured in the Red Fort car blast that shook the capital earlier this week.

The political discourse in India has recently been reignited following allegations of large-scale electoral fraud made by Rahul Gandhi , Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha. Gandhi  claimed that the 2024 Haryana Assembly elections witnessed massive manipulation, including around 25 lakh fake voter entries, duplicate registrations, and suspiciously repeated voter identities. In one of the more striking claims, he alleged that a photograph of a Brazilian model appeared 22
