Re: Operation Sindoor - Post Conflict Analysis
Has anybody connected this recent conflict with Gen Paddy's book that he wrote in 2004, 'India Checkmates America'? It is eerily prescient and even mentions Akash at one place. Of course the antagonist in the book is the US but the scenario with India intercepting all its missiles is incredibly simi...

Re: Pahalgam Terror Attack: News & Discussion
Deradicalization of Pakistan aawaam is a multigenerational project. Perhaps the Chinese are best equipped to do it as they are doing with the Uighurs - those methods are unconstitutional in India. Notice that Ataturk tried it with Turkey with mixed and less than permanent results. The more realisti...

Unless the very close fights in UP and elsewhere work in favor of the NDA, the trends are pretty much set. Would love to see BJP inch closer to 272 on its own.

what concerns me is that on the EC site, the pie chart (upper half, not bottom), which shows the number of seats leading, BJP has less than half the width, earlier it was almost 2/3 of the semi-circle.

Yes, I know many who were boostered and yet got it. Some of them got it from a party where nobody showed any symptoms and even after the event nobody else developed any. So it is also being spread by completely asymptomatic people.
