Sometime I cannot just understand, US based desi folks getting so pumped up about American politics on an forum primed for discussing matters of Indian security interests. And the forum for discussing our own political developments had to be hived off to a separate resource. Why does it matter to I...

^^Why does everyone who is rich and powerful in Khanate gets accused of only Tax-fraud, Wire- fraud (no clue what that is) , inside trading and obstruction of Justice charges. Don't rich and powerful ever commit any other regular crimes in the land of free&Brave ? Is it that they are easiest to...

The pakpasandi of otherwise 'liberal secular' IMs needs to be seen to be believed. Balakot was belligerent. Balakot attack missed by a mile. TFTA JF17 shot down our KSRTC like MiG. Benevolence of pakis to hand over Abhi. Pulwama was chankian by Modi. etc.. etc... The proliferation of social media c...

To add to Nams point, many ejections result in injuries. What if the missile strike on his plane resulted in the pilot being incapacitated in some form. These everyday Pakistani are absolute and total idiots, and the way they operate, pack mentality etc, its very possible they lynched their own pil...

The cynic in me has another angle how this can be gamed ... Modi being the smart politician that he is. How do you trip up your opponent without being aggressive? Allow them to attack you on an issue that *WILL be seen* as an attack on India i.e. the mango admi's ego. a funny thing is happening in ...

speaking of sheeple , none in my office were aware of flightradar24 and the fact that paks are now cowering behind closed airspace for 3 days now and its economic, "losing face" and social impact. educated a few as to why our boy is being returned - not any respect for geneva convention :...

what happened to the heli that went down? there were concerns of stingers etc. is that confirmed as tech fault or?

Trump doesn't look like he is in the loop at all. But then he himself admitted that he won't take intelligence briefings since he has all the intelligence himself. he has his own problems in many fronts - cohen and SDNY issues, mueller and collusion investigations, national emergency on wall and co...

We are all projecting our wishes of constant update, "good PR" etc on the govt. You are only going to be more disappointed. This govt has a hostile media that is looking to trip it and trap it. It will only give specific stuff out when it feels necessary. Vastly different from Massa media ...

what was the objective of the F-16s and how much did the achieve?

It is quite brave of the PAF to respond with F-16s knowing they'll likely lose some, and they did lose one.

So, Pakistan is clearly winning at the moment, despite the heightened security/surveillance in the light of our strikes ,they struck back within a day, downed our two aircrafts and captured a Pilot. Now, until he is repatriated we obviously can't take any air action. A sad situation. Did we underes...

unfortunate to hear about the capture. hope he does not suffer the fate of nachiketa. puzzling how he ended up in that position.

any confirmation on the F-16?

The shutting down of the airspace indicates something big. bakis will do that to get "international community" to get involved and get a face saving exit out of this mess. their most popular CT is , we could have done this and that if not for this and that (insert corrupt politician, mass...

5% of 2.5L to 5L = 12,500 = 12.5K != 12.5k crore.

Gus

Touching the slab would mean giving up 12.5k from all taxpayers. That's a bigger hit for revenue.

For the ones who can't get below 5L taxable, Std exemption increased by 10k should help.

80c should be expanded to 2 or 2.5. 2 kids at school means you are already close to or over 1.5

Gus

people whine a lot when inflation is high, but don't appreciate it when it is low.

People get used to things, especially the good things and take it for granted.

There's a reason why parties use fear and outrage to motivate people to vote.

There is a OPT-internship-H1 path that many take. I was in the opt-gult bodyshop-h1 path :lol: these are the typical paths for most h1 grads, as direct hires are rare and only in top kaalijes. their rates are lower only at their immediate payroll, but since their status is masked to the layer above,...

Gus

what sort of work were they doing? gas station, subway stuff, or a level below H1 jobs, like $15/$20 per hr chota mota IT contract jobs.

looks like some used up the OPT period and still were not getting a H1 job, or maybe failed in lottery..not sure what is the make up of the cases
