The Guardian calls India’s refusal to crawl before the US a diplomatic blunder, while American bullying ‘realpolitik’: Brown sepoy mukul kesavan blames PM Modi for standing up for India’s sovereignty

mukul kesavan recently authored a piece in The Guardian, blaming PM Modi for the recent Indo-US strain, conveniently absolving Trump’s bullying and America’s double standards.

From tariffs for buying Russian oil to casteist jibes by trump’s advisers, washington tried every trick to bend India into submission. Modi’s refusal to crawl is not weakness but maturity, something brown sepoys like kesavan cannot comprehend.



what drives these misbegotten gutter snipes to vent their bile publicly, is it still the same "thirty pieces of silver", adjusted for inflation

India did not struggle for swarajya for centuries just to barter it away to appease a Trump.

Imperial Receipts with Dr Shashi Tharoor | Episode 1: The Empire

"Imperial Receipts with Dr Shashi Tharoor" is a new series that revisits the history and legacy of colonial rule. Dr Tharoor examines how the British did not simply govern India, but looted its wealth, dismantled its institutions, and reshaped its story. In Episode 1: The Empire, we step into the early years of colonial rule and begin uncovering its layers. The conversation looks at the arrival of the railways and the institutions that followed, revealing how empire shaped India in ways still felt today. This opening episode sets the stage for the rest of the series, tracing how the empire left marks that extend far beyond politics or economics, influencing the way India’s resources were used, its systems reorganised, and its people governed. These legacies, as Dr Tharoor highlights, are not relics of the past but forces still visible in the present.

Mukul Kesavan is an Indian historian, novelist and political and social essayist. He was schooled at St. Xaviers' School in Delhi and then went on to study history at St. Stephen's College
This parasite is professionally trained in the craft of Hindu/India bashing and will spin every story to buttress that narrative, however idiotic and illogical it will be.
