“At this time of ‘Operation Sindoor’ of conflict, we also have ‘Operation Saree’ of bonding…” This 2025 year of our Lord, a Kannadiga writer Banu Mushtaq of Hassan, Karnataka, has won the coveted International Booker Prize for her book ‘Heart Lamp.’ The whole world loves the winner. Congratulating her many times over. She has become…
More rain, no drain Bengaluru flooded again. And nobody was surprised. While citizens waded through chest-deep water, leaders wasted no time in turning a tragedy they created into a theatre with photo ops and blame games. In 2022, Siddaramaiah, then in Opposition, proclaimed, “For the first time in Bengaluru’s history, people have fled their homes…
Last Tuesday I went to see a friend after a month’s disconnect. Sipping into the spirit of my friend’s hospitality, our conversation narrowed down from family and friends to the current burning subject — ‘Operation Sindoor.’ My friend asked if I had read an article by Veena S. Rao, a retired IAS Officer (who retired…
Adversarial media working on hidden agenda ? Operation Sindoor “Because of an abrupt ceasefire, Operation Sindoor has completed its mission only partially. But cinders remain.

Pahalgam in Kashmir, where the dastardly terrorist attack, targeting male Hindus, took place on 22nd April 2025, according to apocryphal history, is a sacred place where Jesus and even Moses before him walked! Pahalgam is in the Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir. It is located…

Javeed Nayeem, MD Last week I wrote about how thoughtlessly our civic authorities have behaved in chopping down forty beautiful Yellow Shower trees on the Hyder Ali Road, under the lame pretext of a need to widen it. These are the same authorities vested with the almost sacred responsibility of safeguarding our…
Like every Indian, I was overcome with shock and anger after hearing about Pahalgam terror attack. As the emotional dust settled, a darker question emerged: Has Pakistan now become China’s lapdog?
