In the bustling backstreets of Dubai’s Al Karama, or the labor camps of Doha and the high-rises of Riyadh, you’ll find a curious sight: Indians and Pakistanis — often vocal patriots at home — living not just in peace, but in quiet, functional harmony. How? Because they know one thing with crystal clarity: the biggestContinue reading “Deportation Diplomacy: How Indian and Pakistani Patriots Find Peace in the Gulf”

When Hindus Die Quietly: The Selective Outrage Over Tamil Deaths in Sri Lanka
In May 2009, the final phase of the Sri Lankan Civil War came to a brutal end. Nearly 70,000 Tamil civilians—mostly Hindus—were killed during the onslaught led by the Sri Lankan state under then-President Mahinda Rajapaksa. Villages were razed, bodies were strewn across beaches, and war crimes were documented by international human rights groups. And yet, oneContinue reading “When Hindus Die Quietly: The Selective Outrage Over Tamil Deaths in Sri Lanka”
Will there be cross-border firing between India and Pakistan before the 2026 state elections?
In 1999, the Kargil War unfolded shortly after the Vajpayee-led BJP government lost a no-confidence vote by a single vote in April. That political instability could have made India seem vulnerable, but the government and military’s swift response during Kargil actually boosted Vajpayee’s image. Later that year, in the general elections, the BJP-led NDA returnedContinue reading “Will there be cross-border firing between India and Pakistan before the 2026 state elections?”
The Real Reason Behind Every War
History teaches us many things—but perhaps the most disturbing lesson is this: wars are rarely about what we’re told they’re about. Every major conflict, when stripped off its rhetoric and propaganda, reveals a primitive hunger: land and natural resources. The soil under our feet, the oil beneath it, the rivers that flow, the mountains thatContinue reading “The Real Reason Behind Every War”
The Polly Umrigar Trophy
Months ago, in the quiet of their ancestral home, he had made a promise. A solemn vow to his father. “If we don’t win the trophy this year, I’ll quit playing cricket. I’ll give it all up. I’ll surrender my destiny to you.” His father, Mr. Choudary, a sharply dressed man with a calculating gazeContinue reading “The Polly Umrigar Trophy”
A brief prediction for the next six months
News will emerge of a well-known celebrity tragically passing away—either by suicide, drug overdose, or a fatal accident—before October 2025.
The Meeting
At seventeen, Kumara found himself standing at the edge of a farewell he hadn’t prepared for. The city of Mumbai, with its crowded streets, monsoon-soaked afternoons, and the warm chaos he had grown up with, was no longer going to be home. His father, a dedicated employee of MTNL, had received a transfer to TamilContinue reading “The Meeting “
Hinduism Is Not Evolving — Hindus Are Drifting
There’s a persistent belief among modern Hindus that Hinduism is an “ever-evolving” religion. This view is often paraded as a virtue — a sign of progress, openness, and adaptability. But it fundamentally misrepresents what Hinduism is. Hinduism, or more precisely Sanatana Dharma, is not a product of historical evolution like the Abrahamic religions. It is notContinue reading “Hinduism Is Not Evolving — Hindus Are Drifting”
REFLECTION
He had failed again. As always, it was mathematics that had betrayed him. It was the second time in a row he’d flunked his eighth-grade exams, and though the results screamed his name in bold red letters, the blame wasn’t his alone. The friend who once slipped answers to him during tests—an ally in theContinue reading “REFLECTION”
The Confession
It was yet another of his retired days, quiet and predictable, as if drawn from a routine etched in stone. He knew precisely how the hours ahead would unfold—each moment as disciplined and timed as a military drill. At exactly seven, the maid would ring the bell, her arrival as punctual as sunrise. By eight-thirty,Continue reading “The Confession “
