Political instability in neighboring countries, economic challenges, and security issues like border tensions are testing India's resilience. Furthermore, the increasing influence of external powers in the region adds layers of complexity to India's leadership role. As India works to uphold regional stability and foster cooperation, it remains a crucial player in South Asia's collective progress. The question is not only whether India can remain steady but also whether it can help stabilize the entire region. Can we afford a change in leadership on the political front? Something to consider...

India need a new political system to sort out all types of problems because existing system is "incapable". As long as the existing system remains, India will never become a prosperous, culturally, happily, heritage, great, fortunate, rich & developed nation.

Why was India split into two countries? In 1947, the British viceroy announced that after 200 years of British rule, India would gain independence and be partitioned into Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan. What followed was one of the largest and bloodiest forced migrations in history: an estimated 1 million people lost their lives. What caused this violent aftermath? ...Following riots in 1946 and 1947, the British expedited their retreat, planning Indian independence behind closed doors. In June 1947, the British viceroy announced that India would gain independence by August, and be partitioned into Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan— but gave little explanation of how exactly this would happen. Using outdated maps, inaccurate census numbers and minimal knowledge of the land, in a mere five weeks, the Boundary Committee drew a border dividing three provinces under direct British rule: Bengal, Punjab, and Assam. The border took into account where Hindus and Muslims were majorities, but also factors like location and population percentages. So if a Hindu majority area bordered another Hindu majority area, it would be included in India— but if a Hindu majority area bordered Muslim majority areas, it might become part of Pakistan. Princely states on the border had to choose which of the new nations to join, losing their sovereignty in the process...

Can India Become a Great Power?

India in New York - A Mixed Feeling Watching Prime Minister Modi’s recent meeting with the Indian diaspora in New York, I couldn’t help but feel a mix of emotions. On one hand, it’s incredible to see how Indians around the world are making a mark in various fields, building successful careers, and contributing to global economies. It’s a source of pride to see them excel and be celebrated abroad. But on the other hand, it makes me wonder – why do so many brilliant minds leave India? Why is it that many feel they need to go elsewhere to realize their full potential? Can’t that same success happen here, in India? Shouldn’t we be investing our talent and creativity at home, helping India grow and thrive? There’s no right or wrong answer, just a reflection. Maybe it’s time we look closer at how we can create more opportunities, foster innovation, and build an environment that makes staying in India just as rewarding as seeking success abroad.
