"Narendra Modi's attempt at being personally present and personally conducting the religious ceremony (at Ram Temple, Ayodhya) has received such strong disapproval from the four accepted seers of the Hindu religion, who constitute what you may call the pontiffs of the Hindu religion, that it is all going to turn back on him. It will bite back". -
Manishankar Aiyar, Congress Jan 13, 2024 (Kerala Literature Festival)
''There will be a dispute if I call Gyanvapi a mosque....those who have been given sight by the God should see....what's a Trishul (trident) doing inside a mosque?.....we didn't keep it there...the walls (of Gyanvapi) are creaming....there is Jyotirlinga." - Yogi Adityanath, UP Chief Minister in February, 2024
"... We are talking about 1958 and 1960... The main people in the case wanted to make sure that at least we should get the fishing rights... The island was given away in 1974 and the fishing rights were given away in 1976... One, the most basic recurring (aspect) is the indifference shown by the then central government and the Prime Ministers about the territory of India...
"That fact is they simply did not care...," Dr S Jaishankar in March, 2024 (on Katchatheevu island, Tamil Nadu)
"For me, guarantee is far more than a word. It is a very sacred expression for me. It is linked to my hard work and my credibility. It is an outcome of my entire life in public service. When I speak about guarantee, it pushes me to work even harder for the people. ...People see that whatever guarantee Modi gives, he fulfills it, no matter what the circumstances."
- Narendra Modi in April, 2024 (interview to Times of India)
“All of you should remain fully alert, vigilant, and cautious during the voting on Saturday and also in the days after the voting, till the counting of votes is over and you receive the certificate of victory. Do not get misled by the BJP.”
-- Samajwadi party president Akhilesh Yadav on X asked his party workers and candidates to remain vigilant.
(May 2024)
June 2024 --- after Lok Sabha polls results came in --
'Modi Loses His Aura of Invincibility', read the headline in The New York Times
'Modi left at mercy of Muslim-friendly allies', was the headline in Jinnah-founded 'Dawn' in Pakistan !!
The London-based The Times newspaper guessed that
-- "India's poorest voters stopped the prime minister’s Bharatiya Janata Party from winning outright, forcing him to rely on support from the National Democratic Alliance."
Ten years of PM Modi-led regime outlasted 6 Prime Ministers of Pakistan, 5 PMs of the UK, 4 Presidents of Sri Lanka, 3 Presidents of US -- this fact has been aptly highlighted by Shiv Sena (Shinde faction) MP, Milind Deora.
Milind - son of Late Congress leader Murli Deora - was a Minister in the Manmohan Singh government.
Nov 2024 :
From blog article (also reported in 'Nagaland Page)
"In 2003 - Neiphiu Rio and his government were expected to make a difference. He deserved that chance.
In 2024, Rio is still the Chief Minister. The negotiations with the Naga rebels had started in 1997 and by the time India elects its next president (2027), the parleys will reach 30 years' destination."

Dec 2024 : (From blog)
Stooge .... sycophancy ..... !! Or both 'playing' in the hands of 'deep state' ??? ::::: Settle issues of 1971 war - Bangladesh's Md Yunus to Pak PM Shehbaz Sharif .....
Does he want to 'merge' the two wings ... east and the west ?
"Under the leadership of Sheikh Hasina and the Awami League, Bangladesh consistently demanded a formal apology from Pakistan for the atrocities and genocide committed during the 1971 Liberation War.
However, the political landscape appears to have shifted, with the interim government in Dhaka adopting a stance that suggests a growing closeness to Pakistan.....
