Minority Protection is an Unnecessary Myth
Protection of the minorities, it seems, is a standpoint of good governance. I vehemently disagree.
Not because I believe that the minorities do not deserve protection. But because good governance entails the protection of all its peoples from any threat, internal or external. We can logically conclude that it includes the protection of the minorities from [...]

Has BJP lost its purpose of existence?
Many political analysts have by now loudly wondered about the raison d’etre for BJP anymore.

Bihar circus worth all the Crores
At last the great circus in Bihar has drawn to a close, this time with a clear mandate. From the results, which are heartening, it is easy to say that the second round of elections have been worthwhile.

Muslim quotas in IIT, IIM and IIFT
See the latest post on Reservations in IITs and IIMs for OBCs here.
