Funny thing about regime change that US/CIA attempts all over the world including Russia, Iran, India et al. It always comes back to bite the US. Biden lost, now Trump is losing. This is even with Elon's millions of dollars pouring in!
Despite Elon Musk reportedly spending $168 million in Texas, CBS News projects the state's U.S. Senate race is leaning Democratic, with James Talarico holding a lead with 53% of the vote is counted. The Texas governor's race is also leaning Democratic, with Gina Hinojosa leading Republican Gov. Greg Abbott. cbsnews.com/midterms/

I keep saying.. Rahul Gandhi has very bad advisors. They have no ground connect. I am in the capital of the largest state where Congress is in power. Nearly half of voters removed from the list during SIR. Unprecedented!! If there was a genuine grievance, lakhs would be on streets. There would be anger everywhere. It would have been a national or international news. Even a senior Congress Minister Satish Jarkihoki, who has excellent ground connect with SC/ST sections of the population, gave a clean chit to the SIR process. That should have woken up Priyanka and Rahul... but alas they are more closer to an inexperienced Communist Neha Bora, than seasoned Congress mass leaders 😔 People of Bengaluru are just fine. I see it everywhere. Some irritation for people who have to give documents again, but overall people are busy with Ganapati, Dasara, and soon Rajyotsava and Deepawali. No one is even mentioning Gyanesh Kumar or other ECI names. Every road has lost nearly half the voters, and this has never happened in the history of India! But general public has understood why.. they aren't angry. And no matter how many protest marches Rahul Gandhi does.. however many reels his team creates.. however many hours of TV coverage internationally he manages to get.. the common Indians on the streets of Bengaluru aren't responding to him. Worse, they are talking about why Congress lost all seats in the recent MLC election which was held via ballot papers. The biggest mistake any politician can do is to try to manufacture anger, when there is none.. it failed earlier, will fail again, no matter how grand a protest hype is.. People are more angry at the garbage problem, milk price hike, roads dug up, overcrowded buses etc.. But definitely not Gyanesh Kumar. But who can tell that to Rahul? 🙄

MLC elections in 28 seats across 4 big states - Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Bihar and Karnataka. Elections held using ballot papers. Guess how many seats Congress won? 🧐

Today, on the special occasion of RSS Sthapana Divas, my greetings to all Swayamsevaks. I also pay homage to all those greats who have nurtured the RSS over the years. The RSS has completed a remarkable century of service, nation-building and social harmony. Countless Swayamsevaks have worked for society with a deep sense of duty and a nation-first spirit. May this spirit keep strengthening national development in the times to come. राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ के स्थापना दिवस के विशेष अवसर पर सभी स्वयंसेवकों को मेरी हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं! मैं उन सभी विभूतियों को भी नमन करता हूं, जिन्होंने अपने अथक परिश्रम और सेवाभाव से संघ को सींचा और संवारा है। राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ ने सेवा, राष्ट्र निर्माण और सामाजिक प्रतिबद्धता का गौरवशाली शताब्दी वर्ष पूर्ण किया है। अनगिनत स्वयंसेवकों ने अपने समर्पण, कर्तव्य-निष्ठा और राष्ट्र-प्रथम की भावना से सदैव समाज के उत्थान के लिए कार्य किया है। मुझे विश्वास है कि यह भावना आने वाले समय में भी देश को और सशक्त एवं सुदृढ़ करेगी। @RSSorg

You can bet your last dollar that this flying car won't be available for sale till at least 2030. Perfect marketing is mixing multiple layers of myth creation on 1 layer of great product reality.

Frankly, every Indian should be proud of Election Commission of India and our EVMs, they are the best in the world. Look at elections in Brazil or Argentina or Europe or even the US, they are so full of flaws. Here in India, every final booth data point and every voter is verifiably accounted for, with clear data trails. Why do they hate this? Because democracy here is so accurately verifiable and cannot be manipulated! 🫡 ECI

For 55 years, the US FED has been the final backstop of global finance. What happens when that backstop shifts from the Ask to the Bid?

Economists called it India's most unproductive habit. Governments banned it, taxed it, and offered her paper instead. She kept buying gold. Gram by gram. For sixty years. Now that much ridiculed Indian Housewife is going to be the final backstop of global finance!

They analysed that Modi had erred by going to Israel. A civilization has a long memory and a longer perspective of the world than headlines can understand

We still don't fully understand the political impact of social media campaigns over time. PK had the 2nd most effective online campaign in Bihar outside of BJP last year, his party may have won only 3.5% vote share overall but its impact on Bihari minds was long term

As a society we have told the reel making, body showing influencer economy that they do matter. The first step towards surrender is always acceptance.

A very small subset of the very same demographic coherent who have been hating Modi-BJP-RSS since 2013 are part of these protests too. Nothing new has been added, nothing new achieved. The math is as simple as that.

Purely Anecdotal; in this election cycle, yet to meet a "Yadav" from rural UP who is not a Yogi fan This has never been the case in the past, never ever They all enumerate list of things done by "sarkar" and then ask "when had this ever happened in the past". Hard to counter!
