The election of India to the #UNSC raises fundamental questions. India’s so-called “5-S approach” in the #UNSC is only a smoke-screen to mask the arrogant, belligerent and confrontationist side of India. Perhaps India would do well to consider another “S” i.e. Satya or truth.

This ambivalence strangely is not to be found in Finland where Field Marshal Mannerheim allied with Hitler against the Soviets to preserve Finnish independence. But India must condemn Bose for his alliance with the Axis Powers.

India has always had a rather ambivalent attitude to Subhas Chandra Bose, who initially sought Hitler's support and then allied with the Japanese, but was also fighting for Indian independence. That said, I think this is going too far. Dangerously so.

It requires an inexplicable leap of imagination to arrive at this conclusion on the basis of @sushantsareen 's tweet. Alternatively, the truth has been revealed sarcastically so that if it turns out to be the case, it can be dismissed as a joke. These games don't work.

In this version, did the US trick the Government of India into ordering the assassination of people in North America? Because it seems like that part of the story is relevant to whether this is all some elaborate Western influence operation.

By focussing on aggregates, Indian policy is missing out on the welfare of the middle class. Take inflation. It’s now 4.8%. But vegetable inflation is 27.8%. The rich spend a tiny fraction of income on vegetables, so this means little. But for the masses this erodes real income.
