Bharat Rakshak

Ambar-saar, why do we have ED/IT ministries? Let the sarkaari spokesmen speak soothingly to media and the troublemakers. In the meantime, unleash these departments and attach their properties. Khaalistani idiots have confirmed their support, use NSA and jail the brokers and their families in the co...

Social pressure on Punjabis (Hindus and Sikhs) and Sikhs living out of Punjab is at criminal levels. Anyone supporting farm bills is threatened, boycotted and getting fined. This is indeed a crucial moment in Indian history as Deep Sidhu said :D will define the next political structure of this whol...

If i read correctly, the farm laws were agreed to be stayed for a year and half on the condition that the farmer organizations will participate in the sc appointed committee. if they are not going to join and still keep asking for repeal with the govt promising the one and half year suspension then ...

Thanks. Banks allow high limits but poor transaction costs. The remittance sites have better rates, but very low sending limits. Remitly seems to have the highest daily sending limit, but slightly worse rates. The best I've found so as a consumer is making daily transactions for a few weeks. I am n...

Next question - what's a good way to transfer $s to an Indian account? Looking for both a good exchange rate and high transaction limit. Not sure on the latest saar, but last i checked remit2india is a good site with good rates. but it takes a week to 10 days depending on when the transfer was init...

@RudraDev Saar, what ever you have written is quite correct. but there is another aspect to this as well. Most of the desi crowd coming to the US come for a better life where they want to work and earn their keep. so most of the focus is to get ahead and make a good living. subsequently that same is...

I have a question regarding this committee, Is this the same retd. Justice Lodha who was in charge of the BCCI reforms saga some 3-4 years ago? the very same guy. the SC went and negated his excellent report almost in toto. effectively the SC negated its own report because it had appointed lodha to...

The Act is there, but the Rules are NOT there. It is the Rules which enable the implementation of the Act. On CAA I am really in two minds; was it all optics by the GoI (to get popularity) or was there any true intention to help persecuted non-Muslims. Unless the Rules come out soon - as A.Shah sai...

From Republicworld.com: Defence Budget 2021 To See Unprecedented Hike Reflecting 5-year Modernization Plan Defence budget 2021 is set to reflect the modernisation plan of the Armed Forces for the next 5 years which is likely to attract the highest ever hike in the upcoming budget for the sector and...

NDTV scum gang has taken note https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EriQItQVEAAebll?format=jpg&name=900x900 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EriQItRUcAMXb7h?format=jpg&name=small somebody should point out to these "self esteemed folks" that the SC also invited the protesting farmer unions to joi...

So, if there is no filibuster mechanism, it is ok to block the highways for months by these Hindu hating mobs (and a few Hindu sell-outs with ulterior motives). It is obvious to most folks on this forum that there is no merit to these so called "farmer protests". By this I don't mean farm...

Actually, NaMo is using Chanakaya tactics to make China choose. They can withdraw or fight. Right now winter doesn't allow either. Hence my timeline from April to June for the choice. To withdraw will be a loss of face. To fight will also lead to real losses. Like Ajit says "Isko Liquid Oxygen...

People tend to have a favorable view of the past things. The indian team under ganguly was all out for 54 when chasinga total of 300 against Srilanka and they had pretty much all the stalwarts (maybe not dhoni yet). The Indian cricket team has been trying to constantly improve using "process&qu...

the double stacked ones seem to be 45+45 wagons with double stacking making a max of 180 big containers to be transported in one go. It should be able to transport 2-3x times normal load reducing the trucks plying on higways as well. its one big beast. hope to see more of those in the near future wo...

Vsunder saar, hasn't been posting much lately. hope all is well with him.

250 years is an inordinate amount of time saar, even an AI can't prepare for that. Judging by the rate the conversions are ongoing, in another 40-50 years there might not even be a need to free hindu temples :mrgreen: That's fine - I understand the emphasis you're making. Too many posts are focusin...

Thanks for your inputs on this. My thought process runs like this - I think one of the impediments to the question of freeing temples is 'and then what ?' I don't want a USSR-redux at this level - an existing broken system falling apart only to be replaced by many small fiefdoms of anarchy. In my v...

Rakesh Saar,
can we have a dedicated thread for all the veterans that attain moksha. I do think that Ajit Lamba does have history with IAF, but great illustrious careers from all the services probably can be collated in one thread for greater ease. (even Col. "Bull" kumar passed away).

^^ it seems they picked it out from some animation or video game. i don't think there is videos of MWF flying. Could have used Tejas. Maybe the guys tasked with creating the video/gif were themselves unaware. we see this when media houses do something similar regarding defense articles (though peopl...

Om Shanti to a brave soul. not the ideal way to start the english new year. but there should be some commemoration of his efforts for posterity by the govt. for the future generations.

The issue of temple management is different in different states i believe, but in the state of AP and Telangana the govt has a temple hundi and takes the whole money and gives a salary for the pujari and temple priests. its was 2500 or so in early 2000/2002 time frame. one way to do more was to give...

I have notice the same among Sikh friends - a hatred for Modi and love for Kejriwal. It puzzles me because I thought the Sikhs hated Congress and like BJP since it was allied to the Akali Dal. Any Sikh friend care to enlighten us about the cause for this? my previous post didn't show up so i will t...

snip? Not sure if this question came in the newbie section or the forum feedback page? so posting in both This might possibly due to mixed content protection on your browser.

Hi, a question for the mods and old timers. the images attached in the threads sometimes don't show up when there are no links. there is only "image" when browsing on a laptop, but the same are displayed when browsing through a smartphone. Many times those images will fetch back when you ...

3) The same cost skew is faced by producers too. Diesel, DAP or other agricultural inputs are not priced at 1/20 the prices of rich nations. I think we have lulled ourselves into a false sense of achievement with PPP terminology. As we match real world per capita income these anomalies will ho away...

^Above post of KiranA is mostly rhetoric and only value one can get out of above is that there should be less of babu clerk class and more of entrepreneurial class . One can apply the same rhetoric to a soldier, police, trader, doctor and everyone else outside of the babu clerk set. . No, you misse...

GoI should also investigate who is funding all of this. This ain't cheap. There were raids at PFI offices all across India. So GoI knows who the financiers are. They were the financiers at Shaheen Bagh as well. KL is one route by which lots of funds were siphoned in. GoI can actually do a wait &...

This post is directed at those who think that the farmers with the specific demands will win. I don't think that the farmers and the people behind have any clue about the decision making process of the government. Remember that the top players in this government have faced off against the might of ...

If supply exceeds demand, would the farmers be allowed to sell it to companies that can buy at MSP and put it to good use, like generating CH4? Farmers can get CH4 in exchange for the left over grain. I would not know the right answer to your question. I guess with removal of restrictions as to whe...

Hi all,
