    Wake up India! We may soon lose half our precious Foreign Exchange to repay only a part of our debts and service our imports. What after that? Sri Lanka type Debt Trap ?

    One more point: On what basis has Time chosen Bilkis as amongst 100 most influential people world-wide? How has she influenced the world?Joke! Motive is to maintain international interest in anti-CAA movement & encourage communal divide in India. ST endorses this mischief.

    Sad that an opposition MP is backing the PM of a foreign country against her own country’s PM. Indirectly, this is support for the pro-Khalistani position of Trudeau. He is not answerable but Modi is.

    What’s the need to change form of greeting and have an Urdu version? Why love it? Deepawali has meaning rooted in civilisational consciousness. Jashn-e-chiraagh has no such connotation.

    Blaming Modi for Trump’s antagonistic steps against India rather than closing ranks against foreign bullying only weakens our resistance. Trump is being obnoxious to everyone, including his allies. See the way he has humiliated Europe, Japan, South Korea, Canada, Mexico etc.

    The right decision by PM Modi. If Modi went to Kuala Lumpur a meeting with Trump would have had to be organised. Trump’s unpredictability and loose talk carries political risks. It is best to avoid a meeting with Trump unless the trade deal is sealed beforehand. The trade

    What a cynical cover up! Immoral too. Violence against Hindus is justified because they voted for the Awami League. Communal killing is wrong but political killing is merited? What chicanery!
