I hope power hungry backstabbers at BJP desiring to win the NE elections aren't sucking upto to EJs now. Look at handles of Anshul Saxena and Girish Bharadwaja, they have been pleading to MEA regarding misuse of visas by visiting EJs. Quite a few visit successfully. One of the poll promises of BJP ...

WTF
YS Chahal(lbg) 4 0 64 0

Also poor handling, persisting with him when he was being hit all over.

Irrespective of the spin of blaming RBI or anybody else, the buck ultimately stops with the govt. I get my info. from public domain (PD), same as most others do, and so far I have not seen the news that whistleblowers approached RBI or the govt./PMO forwarded the case to RBI, so maybe I missed that ...

So now RBI is being scapegoated?? No doubt that there is plenty of blame to go around but the buck ultimately stops with the present govt., specially since it refused to act despite being approached by the whistleblowers at different levels of the govt. from IT/ED/CBI to the highest level the PMO it...

If the existing institutions were strong then there wouldn't be a need for Lokpal to begin with. Lokpal is sorely needed because of the weakness of existing institutions. Beside if the exercise of setting up a Lokpal institution is meaningless then why include it in the manifesto?? Now I am no fan o...

Including lokpaal I presume; but yes, I'll say you are subtle. No subtlety there saar! Recall that BJP's promise of a effective Lokpal institution was part of their manifesto and their PM candidate then had promised speedy appointment of Lokpal. Now 4 years on there is still no Lokpal in sight so i...

If talking will backfire on Modi, IMO silence hurts him even more, so talking is better alternative. Regardless, it is his responsibility to talk on such issues of national importance, it is the nature of the job he was elected for. So when he is keeps quiet he is failing to do his job. His silence ...

Hello Dhruv Rathee !

who is Dhruv: another Modi baiter?

he is basically regurgitating the points and arguments of a popular AAPi youtuber/twitterer of that name.

That is nonsensical categorization, I post what my personal views on issues.

I am skeptical about the claim of Rs 5,500 crore worth of diamonds being seized. How were they able to ascertain the value while they were seizing it? Lot of these diamonds may simply be fake, may be cubic zirconia. One of the whistleblower who worked for Mehul Choksi company, said that accounting ...

I understand most may have happened in the UPA time but can the govt at least detail action taken, no of FIR's filed, money recovered etc ?

PNB 11,400-crore scam: CBI says most of Nirav Modi’s fraud LoUs issued or renewed in 2017-18

Tribolite, There is nothing in that IE article you posted that suggests corruption on part of CBI wrt Mallya. It clearly says Mallya was co-operating and hence allowed to go abroad. Similar to what is happening to Karti Chindambaram. Look at it this way - Mallya was allowed to go abroad only becaus...

Per the whistleblower this issue was brought to the authorities notice back in 2016:

Didn't get response from ED, CBI: Man who 'informed' PMO about Nirav Modi scam

What is Lookout Circular?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Look_out_circular

CBI changed nature of Mallya's lookout notice in Nov. 2015
Vijay Mallya case: CBI changed nature of lookout circular

We also need proper exit control laws to prevent accused people from leaving the country. I am not sure if India has one. India has "Lookout Notices", it is similar to exit control. Anybody on the lookout notice is not allowed to leave the country and stopped at the immigration. In case of Mallya C...

The only way out of this is by instilling fear and push baboons into submission. Suspending them or removing them from jobs won't do anything. Something more harsh is needed. That is a bad idea. What we need is opposite of what you are saying. We need them to be independent and work for India rathe...

Either that or there are corrupt people in BJP too, which of course is equally likely. At the end of the day the govt. of the day gets the blame, at least some of it.

BJP MLA says CM Trivendra Rawat shielding corrupt

Fresh trouble is brewing in the ruling BJP in Uttarakhand with a four-term legislator accusing chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat of protecting the corrupt at the behest of a ‘powerful cabinet minister.”

Tribolite, In a growing economy everything will rise i.e. GDP, income, inflation, cost of living, poverty line. A country becomes rich when GDP and income rises faster than inflation and poverty line. This is high school economics. So your original argument suggests a lack of understanding of basic...

So what do you guys make of first Indian PM visit to Palestine? What is the purpose? Tampering down the domestic muslim anger towards BJP before the 2019 election? Seeking muslim vote for 2019? Appeasement? Modi by being the first PM to visit Palestine has bowled a googly! Hard for his supporters an...

This is shocking, the goan minister call north Indian tourists "scum of the earth". This is gonna piss off a lot of north Indians! "North Indian Tourists Want To Create A Haryana In Goa": Minister It's from ndtv. I will wait for confirmation. Well here you go, now the question is why is this asshol...

Tirbolite, As the income of the country increases the poverty line also increases. So what you are saying is wrong. Sutrapik, you do have a point, but when the income rises prices also rise, especially in India where average inflation rate is very high almost same rate as the real growth rate.
