Why no outrage from so-called #Deshbhakt media over inhumane and insulting deportation of Indians from US?

By Vidya Bhushan Rawat  
Why is there no outrage from the so-called #Deshbhakt media over the inhumane and insulting deportation of Indians by the Trump Administration? Countries like #Colombia, #Venezuela, and #Mexico have boldly raised the issue and arranged civilian planes to bring their citizens back honorably. However, so far, Indian leadership has remained clueless or is busy weaving a new narrative about scoring a 'diplomatic' victory or how Trump invited Modi to the US. Can Trump really be trusted? We are likely to witness organized chaos over the next four years. Now, he aims to control #Gaza, demanding that people there either relocate or face elimination.
It is strange that our media and political leadership have remained silent on why people are being deported in such an inhumane manner. The number of affected individuals could be much larger. There is also the danger that the Americans might demand reimbursement for the expenses incurred. The Trump administration can be both mischievous and intimidating. India needs to stand firm and not be swayed by Trump's acceptance or rejection.
The only country that has consistently stood by India is Russia. India would do well to carefully consider its stance before agreeing to anything Donald Trump proposes. Trump is desperate to maintain American hegemony in a world where U.S. supremacy is increasingly challenged. India must stand on its own and protest if its citizens are humiliated.
Let us see how the mainstream media reacts to this. Perhaps it won’t be on their agenda today, as they will be preoccupied with Modi ji's Ganga Snan at Prayagraj and campaigning for the BJP in the Delhi elections. Let’s see when they wake up and what they have to say.

No one expects a better deportation than this for people who crept into a country totally illegally. Is this not only ridiculing the citizens and legal migrants living in that country but also to the people who are struggling to go by all the formalities for securing legal visas to that country.

Xi Jinping’s visit to USA: Recognition that China can't be contained?

By Vijay Prashad   President Xi Jinping’s forthcoming visit to the United States must be understood as more than an encounter between two heads of state, but it must be seen as an encounter between two possible futures. In one future, the United States imposes a spiral of confrontation against China. Trade disputes harden into economic warfare, then economic warfare intensifies into technological blockades, technological blockades produce military encirclement, and finally military encirclement creates incidents, and incidents the danger of becoming an unimaginable war.

Swaminarayan, untouchability and the 'we are not Hindu' argument

By Rajiv Shah   Following my blog on why the Eiffel Tower authorities should take all the blame for giving in to the Swaminarayan sadhus ’ bizarre demand to “invisibilise” women, including its female staff, during their visit to the internationally renowned Paris tourist centre on September 5, an interesting comment by one of the top academics drew my attention to something I vaguely knew about one of India’s most powerful and richest religious sects.

From margins to microphones: The rise of Dalit hip-hop in India

By Tersina Maria Toppo*  A protest does not always arrive as a slogan shouted from a street corner. Sometimes, it arrives on a beat. A microphone replaces the megaphone, a music video becomes a public square, and the smartphone becomes the space where a history once pushed to the margins is narrated, debated, and shared.
