    What the lone survivor from said all along about the . While government obliged to check every lead before declaring citizens dead; this terrible tragedy will raise questions about how long this has been known and what the basis was to tell families otherwise

    Terrible news on in but one has to wonder and ask how long has this been known and inevitably true. Of course every last lead had to pursued before announcement. But for these families whose hopes were still alive.. this must be so so crushing

    For past 4 yrs EAM was telling me that they were alive,don't know what to believe anymore.I am waiting to speak with her,no information was given to us,we heard her statement she made in Parliament: Gurpinder Kaur, sister of Manjinder Singh who was among 39 Indians killed in Iraq

    Shattered at the heart-wrenching news from that the 39 Indians missing in Iraq, most of whom were Punjabis, are dead. My heart goes out to the families who had been living in hope since their reported abduction by ISIS in 2014. Prayers with all of them.

    The issue is not apologizing-makes sense to cut losses - the problem becomes the angry young man platform he sought to occupy; all those allegations & thus the AAP identity now stand delegitizimed by him picking - and now withdrawing-a fight he couldn't sustain.

    Indian Media today- ya Chamcha Ya Morcha- either fully supplicant- or fully activist. Neither model interesting for free thinkers who want the story to be sacred.

    Sir hundred percent I would if it were not for calling this Fake News, saying that this is a property dispute crime & not ideological or communal! And the next time our citizens are killed by mobs - any mob- I hope your voice too will rise above the din and be heard.

    I hope you folks will lead media protest against such barbaric killing of a citizen by mobs, and not keep quiet because of your ideology

    If the Opposition doesn’t work hard to keep Mayawati on its side, Modi may well try to lure her to his. writes in on the importance of being Mayawati.

    Superb essay by on the resurgent importance of Mayawati to Indian politics

    Why Mayawati- with zero Lok Sabha seats-is key to any opposition plan to beat Modi in 2019. I argue in that the leader has shown -once again- that she can't be ignored. Agree?
