Why no one in US, Britain will scream at Harris, Sunak: Return to your motherland

 By Dr Mike Ghouse*
Not only do I congratulate Rishi, but the Hindu and the Indian community as well for giving some of the best political and business leaders to the world.
It's supreme joy when one of our own makes super significant accomplishments; not only the Hindus but Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, and others feel elated.
It is the beauty of democracy; every capable citizen can become whatever he or she wants to be.
Let's hope he will work on building stronger economic ties between his motherland and his homeland and bring prosperity and sustainability to both democracies.
We, the Indians of all hues, will support him in working toward strengthening democracy and bringing peace and prosperity to the world.

36% of American and British Indians need to reflect on their privileges and hypocritical attitude towards minorities in India
USA and UK are not perfect unions but are models for the world and other authoritarian rulers to emulate. No American or Britisher will scream at Kamala Harris and Rishi Sunak to return to their motherlands as their holy place is elsewhere.
About 36% of American Indians and British Indians need to seriously reflect on their privileges as minorities and their hypocritical attitudes towards minorities in India. Neither the American nor the British government would tolerate their Indian citizens being harassed and lynched by anyone. We all need to speak out against any discrimination and work on strengthening democratic institutions.
Together as Indians, let's keep working towards an inclusive India.

By Bhaskar Sur* Swami Vivekananda now belongs more to the modern Hindu mythology than reality. It makes a daunting job to discover the real human being who knew unemployment, humiliation of losing a teaching job for 'incompetence', longed in vain for the bliss of a happy conjugal life only to suffer the consequent frustration.

The politics of dreaming: Savita Singh's feminist imagination

By Ravi Ranjan*  In contemporary Hindi poetry, few voices have explored the philosophical and creative possibilities of women's experience as powerfully as Savita Singh. Across collections such as "Svapna Samay" (Dream Time), Aapne Jaisa Jeevan, and "Prem Bhi Ek Yatana" Hai, she has developed a poetic world in which woman is not merely a subject of suffering or social commentary but a creator of knowledge, meaning, and alternative realities.

The visit was significant because it touched on several issues of mutual concern, including security cooperation, border management, connectivity projects, trade, and regional stability.
