Salaams to our Fauj. Always Unsung except in crises. When they do what the administration and politicians can't or won't. To the Soldier..

Its not just natures fury in Uttarakhand & Himachal. Its her wrath at being ravaged, not by the rain, but by indiscriminate constructions
US direct talks with the Taliban: What goes around, comes around. What happens to India's "there's no Good Taliban, Bad Taliban" position?

Every Calamity brings home the fact that our Fauj does what our adminstration cant. From building bridges to pulling kids from borewells
Twitter humour aside, the Madras High Court verdict is a debate about maintenance not pre marital sex. Now decide where you weigh in on that
That said, I continue to have an ideological issue with how our marriage laws institutionalise economic dependency of women on men.
Is Madras High Court giving rights of marriage to a live-in equation or declaring all sex is marriage? The ha ha ho has confused the two!
