Estimated 100 cr per day revenue loss in just about 1 sq km. People are desperate to run business with rent & salary burden on, apart form their own expense. @CMofKarnataka this area supports thousands of jobs. Pls have a look & lift the lockdown.
Just heard that my business area will continue to be shut even as Bangalore lockdown ends tomorrow. @CMofKarnataka pls review and reconsider. For an area of just about 1sqkm the market area generates big revenue & employment. Consider reduced working hours, but open up
.@CMofKarnataka@BBMPCOMM please lift the lockdown of the city market area which is not justified. It’s causing huge losses to the traders. Businesses have started to wind up because of the losses. The area is a big job provider & important in the supply chain for industries
.@CMofKarnataka@BBMPCOMM consider reduced working hours for the market area and open up. 11am-5pm or even 11am-4pm. The lockdown is hurting business very badly. This area has high rent, which businesses can’t sustain without working.

Analysts noticed that CCTV cameras in Taiwan and South Korea were digitally talking to crucial parts of the Indian power grid – for no apparent reason. On closer investigation, the strange conversation was the deliberately indirect route by which Chinese spies were interacting with malware they had previously buried deep inside the Indian power grid
The attack was not foiled by an Indian intelligence agency or a close ally. It was discovered by Recorded Future, a company in Somerville, Massachusetts, which claims to have knowledge of more global C2 nodes than anyone in the world, and which it uses to constantly disrupt Chinese and Russian intelligence operations.
The Chinese intrusion serves as a microcosm for intelligence in the modern age. The cameras in Taiwan and South Korea are among more than one billion around the world, forming a metastasising network of technical surveillance – visual and electronic, ground-level and overhead, real-time and retrospective
Canadian PM Trudeau accuses Indian gvt of killing a Khalistani in Canada and expelled an Indian diplomat. Relations going to be in deep freeze for the foreseeable future.
If there was credible evidence, Trudeau would’ve stayed away from G20 summit. I mean that’s a way to show all is not well, like Xi did. But he attended. Now in matter of days he has credible evidence. Doesn’t add up. Putting India-Canada ties at risk for his political problems?
Modi will be pleased with the accusation though. Taking out terrorist on foreign soil will be well received in India, which has suffered terribly to terrorism
A dozen poor countries are facing economic instability and even collapse under the weight of hundreds of billions of dollars in foreign loans, much of them from the world’s biggest and most unforgiving government lender, China. fortune.com/2023/05/18/chi…
An AP analysis of a dozen countries most indebted to China — including Pakistan, Kenya, Zambia, Laos and Mongolia — found paying back that debt is consuming an ever-greater amount of the tax revenue needed to keep schools open, provide electricity and pay for food and fuel.
China’s reluctance to forgive debt & its extreme secrecy about how much money it has loaned & on terms has kept other major lenders from stepping in to help..borrowers required to put cash in hidden escrow accounts that push China to the front of the line of creditors to be paid.
International relations are and must be guided by cold pursuit of national interests, not emotions.
Many mango Indians get influenced by emotions when it comes to Russia, US, Pakistan, rather than being guided by national interests. Relations are a means to pursue national interests, relations are not the end in itself.
India decided to go with the USSR in the wisdom of that time to pursue national interests. Post Cold War, for those stuck to the past & guided by emotions, relations with Russia became the end in itself not the means.

If there is downgrading of economic ties between Taiwan & China as a punishment,which is likely, India must look to gain from it as Taiwanese companies look for alternatives. It’s not just semiconductors & electronics, but a whole lot of manufactured goods. Make for India & World
OTOH, It will make strategic sense for Taiwan to try and deepen economic relations with India, which benefits India in terms of technology and manufacturing.
Taiwanese businessman Keng Lee : We are businesses that are not conglomerates but have shaped the fortune of China and even the US. We can help turn India into an economic powerhouse newindianexpress.com/states/tamil-n…
India is the only country which not only has commie Left, but also some commie Right! The Left rightly gets called out for its love for China. But they are irrelevant now. The love for Chicoms among a section of Right, potentially influencing policy, is a national security threat
Subversion to change a rival’s policy is a cheap alternative to coercion,deterrence or diplomacy. Why raise an army & invade an adversary when you can spread propaganda,pay off politicians, or dispatch internet trolls to achieve subtler but tangible gains? foreignaffairs.com/articles/world…
China has been playing down the crisis that it precipitated in 2020 leading to the loss of 20 Indian soldiers. It’s blames the US for the crisis! Some in India agree with that. Chinese embassy very active, has penetration our in media,as in other countries.Targets for subversion
