Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi is remembered with pride across India as a fearless warrior queen of the Revolt of 1857. Her name is etched in history books, folk songs, and nationalist stories. However, very few know about her adopted son, Damodar Rao, who witnessed the rebellion not through legend, but through the harsh realities of life. The British Empire’s controversial policy known as the Doctrine of Lapse refused to recognize adopted heirs as rightful successors. It was this very denial that pushed Rani Lakshmibai into battle. But while she became a national symbol of resistance, her son’s l…

In what appears to be yet another blow to the historically steady ties between India and the United States, President Donald Trump has taken a confrontational turn. In a surprising statement, he declared that India would now face a 25% tariff and an additional ‘penalty’ for importing Russian oil.

When Rahul Gandhi stood up to speak in the Lok Sabha about Operation Sindoor, many anticipated a sense of national solidarity. After all, India had just executed a successful and widely praised military response to the brutal terror attack in Pahalgam. However, what followed was far from unity.
