It would be good to check against global efforts. Are Indian patents searchable under Ambai? Or the technology areas?

Meanwhile: United States would encourage India to buy Russian oil amid Russia-Ukraine War. Who would have imagined this scenario play out?

Ambassador Sergio Gor @USAmbIndia on X
India has been a great partner in maintaining stable oil prices around the world. The United States recognizes ongoing purchases of Russian oil are a part of this effort. India is one of the largest consumers and refiners of oil and it is essential for the United States and India

Meanwhile a US senator on X: (Also in US Newpapers)
NEWS: The Trump administration confirmed it bombed a girl’s school in Iran.
It's one of the most devastating military errors in decades.
Trump lied about it. Pete Hegseth gutted the office preventing civilian casualties.
175 are dead. Most were kids. Hegseth should be fired.

"Christian persecution” in India highlighted by mercenary group Sons of Liberty International

Its founder Matthew Aaron VanDyke was arrested by the NIA in Kolkata for training ethnic militias with ties to anti-Indian insurgent groups

Now look at what USCRIF says

https://www.uscirf.gov/countries/india

The Indian government tolerates and perpetrates widespread harassment and violence against religious minorities at the national and state level. The BJP-led government has introduced and enforced discriminatory legislation that disenfranchises religious minorities, including the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), the National Register of Citizens, the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA), and various state-level anti-conversion and cow slaughter laws.

BREAKING: NSA Doval holds crucial meet with US’ Sergio Gor, Middle East Crisis remains key agenda
Amid escalating global tensions, U.S. Ambassador to India Sergio Gor met National Security Advisor Ajit Doval. The duo held what Gor referred as a “fruitful meeting, covering critical security & geopolitical issues” on March 18. Taking to X, Sergio Gor shared key insights from the high-profile meet, adding that strategic cooperation between US & India continues to advance. The crucial meeting came amid rising uncertainty over mineral supplies triggered by the Iran war. With 18 days and counting the US-Israel joint strikes against Iran have fuelled a geopolitical roller coaster. Following full-scale US-Israel offensives, Iran moved to shut the Strait of Hormuz, triggering a major global oil crisis. The ongoing war has caused widespread destruction & chaos in the Middle East with no ceasefire in sight

They are not going to admit, of course. It is India that is saying it.

Same with Nikhil Gupta. The US is saying he is a RA&W agent. If we link, they will go to town, claiming India accepted him while covering up about their agent.

They have a megaphone, while we don't.. All of the Western media, especially the Eurotrash, will parrot what the US says.

Lisa ji,

the very public stance taken by the GoI on this vandyke chappie and his unwashed pals may well preclude this "our man, their man" agenda

the magnitude of the totality of offences against their man (men) is tantamount to waging war against the Indian state, along with multiple attempts to foment a separatist agenda that seeks to break up the sovereignty and integrity of India, encourage, aid and abet insurgency and terrorism while emboldening armed revolution.

their activities have caused death, grievous injuries and damage to property, impacting Indian citizens on Indian territory

and payback for don juan and his contemptuous behavior may just be one of the minor objectives.

The eelam war in lanka was one such BIF strike against India, and many others are in current play.

It appears that there is much bigger game afoot

Not just the dollar, indian news media is full of totally incompetent and lazy anchors and "journalists". Most of the time they take a AP/Bloomberg/Reuters dépêche and regurgitate as Breaking News with garish graphics and BP raising background noise. The rest of the time they become akhada referees overseeing dangal bouts of influencers and "experts" on prime time live "debates". Impossible to watch, except perhaps good old DD news.

The print media does the same, they compensate for debates with hit pieces by leftys and BIF luminaries.

The Sorrows gang and phoren forces have learnt very well how to manipulate our media for their own "narrative" setting.

Pretty hopeless state of affairs.

Bloomberg reporting (summarized by other outlets) states the U.S. lost 16 military aircraft during the Iran campaign, but not 16 fighter jets. Losses included a mix of aircraft types, and only some were fighter jets (e.g., F‑15E, F‑35 incidents).

Firstpost
Reported the U.S. has lost 16 military aircraft in the Iran war.
Breakdown:
12 MQ‑9 Reaper drones
4 crewed aircraft:
Three F‑15s (friendly fire by Kuwait)
One KC‑135 tanker (refueling accident)
Loss figures attributed to Bloomberg.

All detailed reporting on U.S. aircraft losses—such as the widely cited figure of 16 U.S. aircraft lost—comes from:

Received a call from President Trump and had a useful exchange of views on the situation in West Asia. India supports de-escalation and restoration of peace at the earliest. Ensuring that the Strait of Hormuz remains open, secure and accessible is essential for the whole world. We agreed to stay in touch regarding efforts towards peace and stability.
