Even Congress has not alleged that.

Ambani and Adani control the Congress too

This is a thread for Indians and I only commented because the irony was too amusing. I don't really want to interject myself further.

Well NC has had a big loos of funds over the last 5 years because of the 'modi sticking a pole up their @$$ phenomena'. You can't discount the resources thrown in by Congress for their campaigns.

The result were on the expected lines
NC swept in Kashmir
BJP swept in jammu. They lost one seat in kashmir by 1000 votes. This is an achievement in itself !!
Congress proved to be a liability !

Congress under Rahul Gandhi is a dud. Next general elections, you will see a historic mandate for BJP again.

This time BJP voters took the victory for granted. Resulting in unexpected result.

It's the same old faces : Abdullah and Mufties! Kashmir needs a new face with some vision for the its people..
Best solution is to devide the region : three full states : Jammu, Kashmir and Laddakh.
The current hybrid solves nothing.

Albeit with a difference now. J&K now is more like Delhi... even to $hit, Abdullas will have to take permission from LG. Police and transfer posting of senior administrators is already with centre now

A recent study by IBEF, titled Contribution of Indian Industry to the US Economy, which was released by the Union Minister of Commerce and Industry in the US, showcases the symbiotic relationship between the economies of India and the US.

A comprehensive analysis of the top five verticals of Indian industry that contributed to the US economy during the period 2004-07, the study highlights that Indian industry contributed US$ 105 billion to the US economy and created 300,000 jobs during the period through evolution across the value chain—from delivering services to product innovation and process innovation.

– Alaa Abd el-Fattah, British-Egyptian writer and activist, named Writer of Courage by Arundhati Roy, PEN Pinter Prize 2024 winner.


– Alaa Abd el-Fattah remains imprisoned and arbitrarily detained in Egypt, despite having completed his unjust five-year sentence.


– Naomi Klein, author and journalist, delivered an encomium for Roy and Abd el-Fattah, praising their work and their courage.


– Lina Attalah, editor-in-chief of Mada Masr, accepted the award on Alaa Abd el-Fattah’s behalf.

Alaa Abd el-Fattah is tonight, Thursday 10 October 2024, named Writer of Courage 2024. The Writer of Courage is awarded to an author who is active in defence of freedom of expression, often at great risk to their own safety and liberty, and shares the PEN Pinter Prize with the winner. The winner of the PEN Pinter Prize 2024, Arundhati Roy, made the announcement in an address at the British Library this evening, where she was joined by Naomi Klein who delivered an encomium.

Alaa Abd el-Fattah was selected by Roy as her co-winner, in cooperation with English PEN.

Alaa Abd el-Fattah, the British-Egyptian writer, software developer, and activist, is one of the most prominent political prisoners in Egypt and has spent most of the past decade behind bars. He was most recently arrested in 2019 and was sentenced in December 2021 after spending two years in pre-trial detention.

Despite completing his unjust five-year sentence on 29 September 2024, the Egyptian authorities have refused to release him, failing to account for the time he spent in pre-trial detention, in defiance of international legal norms and Egypt’s criminal law.

A certain grp of people cheering each other, slapping each other's back over their greatness.

Roy, in real world, is a nutter. Reminds me of a certain other guy winning Ramon Magsaysay.

See, it's important to present a POV counter to govt. Which is why I like medha Patkar and Udayanidhi Stalin- both of whom ask Modi/ Sanghis to screw themselves.

But it is not wrong to call Arundati Roy a scheming socialite activist.

She rages against capitalism but lives comfortably and hobnobs with the likes of John Cusack. She claims representation of poor people- but only on her terms that present her as an intellectual.

She is wring to win prizes and recognition and to get a personna and image that enables this.

Your hero stopped a project of very vital import for like 20 plus years. A lifeblood of entire region.

Stalin's fame comes from abusing Hindu faith or being spawn of another Stalin (a Russian mass murderer must be smiling). I won't even know his name otherwise.


Roy has done far worse than play the hypocrite. I called her a nutter for reason. I wish she was just a hypocrite.
