This👇is the Annual Report of RSS for the year 2022-23. M.Nageshwar Rao, IPS 1.0 What stands in this as well as in all the Annual Reports of RSS is the total absence of Financial Statements, Budget, Source of funds,  IT Returns filed, etc. 1.1 Who is funding the RSS and its activities? 1.2 If Indian citizens are making small contributions, where are the details? How are they making those contributions? 1.3 Their Central Government has made digital financial transactions almost compulsory. Since it is their Government's policy, is the RSS taking only contributions through banks or in digital mode? 1.4 Does RSS and its affiliates have FCRA permit to receive foreign contributions? If so, where are the details? 1.5 There are so many other questions relating to their secret, if not shady, financial dealings. 1.6 All these questions are equally applicable to RSS and also to all its affiliates and wings such as VHP, BMS, BKS, ABVP, etc, which they need to be answered. 2.0 The R...

# WATCH | In a video message, Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin says,  " ...Today, Tamil Nadu is confronting two critical challenges - the battle for language, which is our lifeline, and the fight against delimitation, which is our right . I earnestly urge you to convey the true essence of our battle to the people. Constituency delimitation directly impacts our state's self-respect, social justice, and welfare schemes for the people. You should take this message to people. Every individual must rise to defend our state...Today, we are witnessing voice of solidarity rising from Karnataka, Punjab, Telangana and beyond. Faced with this resistance, the Union Government insists that it is not imposing its will upon us, yet all their actions suggest otherwise. Their three-language policy has already resulted in the withholding of our rightful funds. Likewise, while they claim they will not reduce Tamil Nadu's parliamentary seats,  they are unwilling to assure that the representation of o...

Be assured you are never alone! India has been employing various mass surveillance projects for many years. Below is an overview of some of these initiatives: Indian Mass Surveillance Projects DRDO Netra DRDO NETRA is a mass surveillance system developed by the Center for Artificial Intelligence & Robotics (CAIR), a laboratory under the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). This system is designed to detect specific keywords such as “bomb,” “blast,” “attack,” or “kill” within seconds from emails, instant messages, status updates, and tweets. It is also capable of analyzing suspicious voice traffic on platforms like Skype and Google Talk. In late 2013, Project Black Knight was launched to enhance DRDO NETRA’s capabilities. This project focused on monitoring social media trends and tracing the sources of viral messages that could disrupt global tranquility. Though details remain scarce, it is rumored that engineers involved later established a private organization. T...

In recent remarks, Union Home Minister Amit Shah assured that the ongoing delimitation exercise would not negatively impact the number of Lok Sabha seats for the southern states of India. While this statement may seem reassuring, underlying concerns remain among the southern states about the potential political implications of delimitation.  Delimitation Concerns The primary concern is the potential imbalance in political representation that could arise from the delimitation exercise. The reallocation of parliamentary seats based on population growth could disproportionately benefit northern states with higher population growth rates. Consequently, the political influence of the southern states, which have successfully controlled their population growth, could diminish. Economic Contributions Southern states like Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh contribute significantly to the national economy. They fear that an increase in seats for the northern states could lead ...

By Jason Huang Bhopal, February 27, 2025—Picture this: over 20,000 suits, diplomats, and bigwigs from 60+ countries descend on Bhopal for the Invest Madhya Pradesh – Global Investors Summit 2025 , ready to talk ₹30 lakh crore in deals. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s there, Gautam Adani’s nodding along, and the vibe is all “sustainable growth” and “global partnerships.” Then lunchtime hits—and it’s every delegate for themselves in a puri-and-sabzi free-for-all that’s left attendees laughing, groaning, and posting memes faster than you can say “kachori.” Move over, investment pitches; the real action was at the buffet. Held on February 24-25 at the Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Manav Sangrahalaya, this eighth biennial summit was Madhya Pradesh’s chance to flex its industrial muscle. Organized by the Department of Industrial Policy and Investment Promotion, it boasted partner nations like Germany, Japan, and the UK, plus a dazzling expo and B2B powwows. The event even went full eco-warrior—elec...

  By Yunus Lasani For longer version read here  (The Print) Language and Identity : Language is closely tied to identity. Many people in the Deccan region, including Hyderabad, speak Dakhni but learn in standardized Urdu. Dakhni is often misunderstood as a dialect of Urdu, but it has its own history and identity. Distinct Lexicon : Dakhni uses words like ‘kaiku’ (why), ‘nakko’ (no/don’t), and ‘hau’ (yes), which are Marathi words. It also incorporates Kannada words like ‘tarkari’ (vegetables). Dakhni’s lexicon aligns more with Dravidian languages than Urdu, challenging Urdu purists. Historical Context : Dakhni has been used historically in the Deccan region, with literary works predating modern Urdu. Muhammad Quli Qutb Shah, Hyderabad’s founder, wrote in Dakhni. Dakhni literature thrived in the 16th and 17th centuries, centuries before Urdu literature's golden period. Debunking Myths : Dakhni is not a corrupt form of Urdu. Urdu itself is a mix of Persian and Hindi. Rekhta, an e...

In India, caste-based favoritism or discrimination is a deeply rooted social issue that often intersects with nepotism and insider networks across sectors. Below are terms for each sector—Judiciary, Executive, Legislature, Banking, Business, Media, Healthcare, and Education—that highlight caste-based privilege or bias.  ♦️ Judiciary "Uncle Judges" Explanation : In India, this term critiques judges in the judicial system who have close relatives—like nephews, sons, or daughters—practicing law in the same courts where they preside. It highlights concerns about nepotism and favoritism, suggesting justice might tilt toward family ties rather than fairness. The issue ties to debates about the collegium system, where judges appoint judges, potentially keeping the judiciary within tight family circles. Reports have noted this in several high courts, fueling calls for reforms like barring judges from courts where kin practice—though progress remains slow. " Brahmin Benches"...

Future vision for India is a matter that resonates deeply with many people across the country, including those in the South who are concerned about prospects of declining political voice after Delimitation elimitation exercise and demographic shifts. Here are a few points to consider: Multicultural, Multiethnic, Multilingual Unity Diversity : India is known for its rich tapestry of cultures, languages, and traditions. Celebrating this diversity strengthens the social fabric and promotes mutual respect and understanding among different communities. Innovation : A diverse society often leads to a flow of creative ideas and innovations, as different perspectives come together to solve common problems. Global Image : Embracing multiculturalism enhances India's image on the global stage as a progressive and inclusive nation. Majoritarian Unity Homogeneity : This approach emphasizes a single dominant culture, language, and religion, aiming for uniformity. Simplification : Simplifying the...

Hyderabad, Telangana – A recent analysis of projected parliamentary seat allocation in India has revealed a potential shift in political power dynamics, with significant implications for the southern states. The data, based on population projections, suggests a growing disparity in representation between the North and South, raising concerns about equitable governance and regional influence. The table, comparing current Lok Sabha seats with projected allocations for 2026, paints a clear picture: Northern states are poised to gain seats, while Southern states face potential losses or minimal gains. Uttar Pradesh, for instance, is projected to see an increase from 80 to 91 seats, while Bihar could gain 10. In contrast, Tamil Nadu's representation might only increase marginally, and states like Kerala could even see a decrease. This shift stems from the well-documented demographic divergence between the regions. Higher population growth rates in the North naturally transl...

Main Observations: Population Growth Shifts Representation: The table clearly shows that as populations change, the proportional allocation of seats also changes. States with higher population growth gain seats, while those with slower growth or declining populations lose seats (or gain less). North-South Divide: A general trend you can observe is that northern states (like Uttar Pradesh and Bihar) are projected to gain seats , while southern states (like Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Andhra Pradesh) are projected to lose seats or gain fewer. This reflects the higher population growth rates in the northern states.  Current Discrepancies: The 2011 data shows that even then, there were discrepancies between current seat allocation and what population numbers suggested. Some states were already over- or under-represented. Political Implications: Changes in seat allocation have significant political implications, as they affect the ...

MOHAN GURUSWAMY. While speaking in 2005 at the release of “Religious Demography of India” brought out by the Centre for Policy Studies, a RSS affiliated thought-tank based in Chennai, a former RSS Sarsanghchalak late KS Sudarshan, exhorted Hindus to have larger families (teen se kam nahi, aap jitna jyaada kar sakein utna acha!). The immediate provocation for this somewhat drastic remedy to what he obviously considers a serious national problem is the rates of population growth of Muslims and Christians.  That Muslims are growing at a faster rate than Hindus in independent India is well known. It has been so since 1951. In the decade 1951-61 Muslims grew at 24.9% while Hindus grew at 18.6%. In 1991-2001 the growth rate of Muslims after adjusting for the exclusion of Assam and J&K in the 1981 and 1991 Census’s was 29.3%, while that of Hindus was 20.0%.  Not surprisingly the RSS and its like-minded allies have tried to stoke fears about Hindus being swamped by Muslims. That o...

In India, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has cracked a code that’s as old as politics itself but feels uniquely potent here: say whatever you want, pile on the claims—true or not—and watch the average Indian nod along. “Jhoot-bolo, jhoot-bhool, jitna marzi jhoot bolo”—tell lies, forget them, tell as many as you like. The catch? Most won’t question the authority dishing it out. Fact-checkers, those pesky diggers of detail, are a minority—and like all minorities in this game, they’re easily ridiculed and brushed aside by a preening majority too enamored with the narrative to care about the fine print. It’s a brutal truth, and the BJP’s turned it into an art form that’s not just winning elections but reshaping how power talks. This isn’t clumsy deception. The BJP’s not tossing out fibs and hoping they stick—they’re crafting a reality too loud to doubt.  Demonetization in 2016 was a chaotic cash purge sold as a deathblow to black money; the Reserve Bank of India later showed 99% of b...

Maha Kumbh 2025: A Record-Breaking Spiritual Gathering Raises Questions on Attendance Figure The Maha Kumbh 2025, held in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, from January 13 to February 26, has been celebrated as an unparalleled spiritual spectacle, drawing millions of devotees to the sacred Triveni Sangam—the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati rivers. As one of the world’s largest religious gatherings, this 45-day festival has seen the Uttar Pradesh government tout record-breaking attendance figures, with claims that over 60 crore (600 million) people participated by its conclusion. This number, representing approximately 43% of India’s population of 1.4 billion, has sparked admiration for its sheer scale but also skepticism about its feasibility. To unpack this, let’s delve into the data, explore the methodologies used to estimate attendance, and assess whether these figures hold up under scrutiny. The Scale of the Claim Ahead of the event, Uttar Pradesh authorities pr...

Every 12 years, the Kumbh Mela draws millions of Hindu pilgrims to India’s riverbanks in a display of devotion that dwarfs most human gatherings. The 2025 edition in Prayagraj, elevated to “Maha” status (a once-in-144-years affair), has outdone itself—or so the Uttar Pradesh government claims. By its close on February 26th, officials pegged attendance at 60 crore (600m), roughly 43% of India’s 1.4bn people. That would make it not just a religious marvel but a statistical eyebrow-raiser, prompting scrutiny of the numbers behind the spectacle. The logistics are dizzying. Over 45 days, Prayagraj’s 4,000-hectare pop-up city hosted an estimated 13m people daily, if the 60-crore figure holds. The state deployed 360 special trains, 7,000 buses, and a lakh of loos to cope, backed by a ₹60bn ($720m) splurge on infrastructure. On peak bathing days—Mauni Amavasya saw 74m dippers, say officials—the Triveni Sangam, where the Ganga, Yamuna, and mythical Saraswati meet, churned with humanity. Uttar P...

Telangana is the paradox. Its per capita income id 193.6% of the national average and it contributes 4.9% of India’s GDP, as much as a much bigger Rajasthan and more than Bihar and MP.  It had the highest GDP growth in the past decade (since formation in 2014) but has the most abysmal state education system. The government schools are decrepit, run down and offer third rate education. The middle and upper classes send their kids to private schools. The KCR regime didn’t bother itself with HDI and was entirely focused on economic growth and making money. These figures speak for themselves. A decade of KCR’s fiscal munificence created a public welfare system which provides enough for the locals to get by without having to work. The state has a dependence on migrant labour from UP, Bihar, Chhattisgarh and Orissa. The numbers speak for themselves.  Though Telangana has a high Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP), the state comes up short when it comes to active workforc...
