Re: India-US relations: News and Discussions IV

Re: Operation Sindoor - Bharat Strikes Back: Jai Hind!
I think we should have atleast sent an attack formation of Rafales over their territory, roaming around for an hour or more, as a public image that can never be removed from memory. What a rubbish idea? We are not going to put our assets and, more importantly, the lives of our pilots at risk so tha...

Re: Operation Sindoor - Bharat Strikes Back: Jai Hind!
What I want to know is where are the b@stards who murdered our people at Pahalgam? In all of the war fever I lost track of what was happening with them? Is there any chance we can at least capture one alive? Very good chance that they will meet their fate. If you have been paying attention, India h...

It is a waste of potential for the nation to have otherwise highly educated and qualified women not joining the workforce. In the end it is a choice and if that is what you want and can afford, more power to you. However, more often than not, this wasted potential is due to current cultural norms.
