Proposed training program on political liberalism and policy reform – August 2018

I’m planning to hold a two week training program (with 2 days in the middle for field visits) on political liberalism and public policy. Potential dates: 13 August to 25 August 2018 (to be finalised), venue: the village library in Bhadohi district started by one of the founders of SBP.  Participants must be members of […]

The contemptible Arvind Kejriwal

I came across an image of Arvind Kejriwal wearing a Muslim skull cap and was curious whether it was a fake or true image. It is true. This pretend religious activity is morally repugnant. This is ugly politics. A cheap and ugly politician, is Kejriwal. Earlier I had thought he was merely a socialist hooligan. […]

Is voter education going to change things in India?

ADR and others have spent decades in “voter education”. Some believe that more voter education will help. I believe this is both unnecessary and deals with the wrong problem. While it may be the case that some voters do not make a thorough analysis of options, they almost always select the best candidate on offer. […]

Two of Indrajit Barua’s many articles

Following on from my post here. I’d like to thank Pankaj Das for managing to collect a few articles from the late Indrajit Barua’s home. I’ve OCRd two of them. I’m publishing the scanned image for all three + text (for two of them). These are specialist technical articles, not the ones that demonstrate his liberal […]

स्वर्ण भारत पार्टी की ऑडियोलॉजी क्या है?

I have just figured out how to use Hindi dictation in google docs. I’m enormously impressed. Its accuracy is close to 99.5 per cent. Amazing! So now I will start writing Hindi blog posts more regularly, and also work to convert most SBP material into Hindi. Here goes the first one (I’ve dictated this in […]

FCRA Act and the case for its repeal + the shambles that is the government of India

The government of India is beyond pathetic. Everything is messed up. I was searching for the details regarding the latest amendments to the FCRA Act but there is no hope of finding anything post-2010 on the internet. The Indiacode website is in shambles. It contains a PDF (not even Word, and not even properly formatted) version […]

Henry Ford’s hatred of the Jews STRONGLY influenced Hitler

Anti-Semitism is not something that the Nazis started. They merely added it to their stupid mix of ideas about nationalism, socialism and race (the Aryan nonsense) to create the highly inflammable nonsense called “Nazi socialism”. Anti-Semitism has a very long history that goes back 2000 years, and one of the most virulent haters of Jews […]

Why does LARGE SCALE corruption continue in allegedly non-corrupt Kejriwal’s Delhi?

On 15 April 2015 I wagered Rs.1 lakh with Arvind Kejriwal that he will COMPREHENSIVELY FAIL to remove corruption. Of course, he refused to accept the wager. (So did Modi – both cowards). Corruption has been FLOURISHING in Kejriwal’s Delhi. Now we have a damning report: On 3 April 2018, the Comptroller and Auditor General […]

The case for Swarna Bharat Party as India’s national liberal party

I took life membership of Sharad Joshi’s Swatantra Bharat Party in January 2004 and became member of its National Executive. But around 18 months later, in mid-2005, I resigned after I found significant organisational issues with the party. Sharad Joshi, an excellent liberal and leader, was not internet savvy and therefore unable to effectively communicate […]

Indrajit Barua – a liberal from Assam – passed away last year

Yesterday I was thinking of connecting someone from Assam with Indrajit Barua. Before I sent off my email to Indrajit, I decided to have a quick look at the internet to find any update about his current activities. It was a very sad occasion when I learnt that Indrajit Barua passed away in June last […]
