Economic warfare has not ended. It has become more refined. Information warfare has not diminished. It has intensified. If India is to safeguard its strategic autonomy in the coming decade, operational success must be matched by narrative dominance. Demonetisation proved this understanding once existed at the highest levels. The imperative now is to institutionalise it before others define India to Indians themselves. Jai Hind

From the very beginning, it was evident that the publicly stated explanations for demonetisation were only a fraction of the real story. The Government of India did not undertake such a disruptive move merely to address black money, counterfeit currency, or tax compliance. Demonetisation was executed for far more specific and strategic reasons tied directly to Indian national security and the long term integrity of the Indian banking system. Those reasons will likely be authoritatively documented only decades from now, when classified economic warfare records are eventually opened. What deserves recognition is the sheer scale and resolve behind the decision. Demonetisation functioned as an act of economic shock warfare. It disrupted entrenched networks built over decades that enabled foreign economic manipulation, counterfeit currency circulation, terror financing, political slush funds, and parallel informal banking systems designed to weaken India internally. Very few governments would have possessed the political will to absorb the inevitable short term pain inflicted on ordinary citizens in order to dismantle such deeply embedded structures. Equally remarkable was the manner in which the decision was communicated to the public. The Government of India executed what can only be described as a textbook case of mass level psychological operations and strategic perception management. Despite inconvenience, uncertainty, and long queues, public support largely held. This was not accidental. The narrative framed demonetisation as a collective national sacrifice rather than a coercive administrative exercise. At the same time, foreign propaganda efforts and domestic political opposition were effectively neutralised in the public mind, even within a rapidly evolving and largely unregulated social media environment. From a strategic communications standpoint, this was an exceptional achievement. The state retained legitimacy while imposing hardship, absorbed public frustration without allowing it to be weaponised, and maintained narrative dominance under sustained pressure. In intelligence terms, this reflected strong internal assessments, confidence in the operation’s necessity, and a clear understanding of adversary reaction cycles. This strategic clarity, however, appears diluted today. Since 2014, India has achieved transformational success across infrastructure development, defence manufacturing, digital public goods, space capabilities, financial technology, and strategic autonomy. Yet these achievements are not being communicated to the Indian population with the same coherence or psychological precision. Meanwhile, foreign information operations have evolved rapidly. Adversarial actors have adapted faster, mastered algorithm driven amplification, and injected cynicism, doubt, and fatigue into domestic discourse. The challenge is not operational failure but narrative fragmentation. Strategic communication has become reactive and decentralised, while hostile information campaigns operate with unity of purpose, emotional manipulation, and speed. Social media, once a strategic advantage, has become a contested battle space where influence is exerted subtly through repetition, ridicule, selective outrage, and psychological exhaustion. Winning elections does not automatically translate into narrative supremacy. A state that does not actively shape its own story risks allowing its population to internalise narratives constructed by adversaries. Demonetisation demonstrated that India can execute hard national security decisions and still carry public trust when strategic communication is disciplined, purposeful, and aligned with national interest. That model needs revival. Not as propaganda, but as confident, coherent narrative leadership rooted in credibility and clarity.

A grand idol of Ramlalla Sarkar worth ₹200 crore has arrived in Ayodhya from Karnataka, drawing nationwide attention for its extraordinary craftsmanship and devotion. The 500-kg idol is said to be crafted using a blend of gold, silver and diamonds, making it one of the most valuable religious idols ever created in India. The idol was transported under tight security and ceremonial protocols, reflecting its spiritual, cultural and material significance. Artisans involved in the creation have highlighted that the idol is not just about material value, but represents Sanatan tradition, faith and collective devotion, with intricate detailing symbolising purity, strength and divinity. The arrival of the idol adds to Ayodhya’s growing stature as a global spiritual centre following the Ram Mandir consecration, while also showcasing India’s traditional craftsmanship and religious heritage at an unprecedented scale.

Important lesson to Mama ji to not have joined hands with Nagpur club 160. Veiled message to Mama that his dream to re-enter MP politics after his dream to become BJP President foiled.

Orange juice taking a dig at Modi and Shah in Vajpayee ji's anniversary saying they have spoilt the culture through compromises and contradictions and not pure ideological like Vajpayee ji. His frustration is visible that he is openly criticising the leadership saying Leadership has become like UPA.

The USA surrendered to the threat of attacks from a particular community. France surrendered to the threat of attacks from a particular community. Germany surrendered to the threat of attacks from a particular community. Britain surrendered to the threat of attacks from a particular community. Australia surrendered to the threat of attacks from a particular community. Hindus of India, did not. Hindus resisted every onslaught on their festivals, celebrations, temples, religious freedom and rituals. They fought tooth and nail, with patience and perseverance on SM, in Supreme Courts, in real life, undaunted and fearlessly. That is why today, while AirFrance wishes Happy Holidays on Xmas,to its citizens,the Hindus freely celebrated the inauguration of their reclaimed Ram Mandir proudly. One ma made the difference NARENDRA MODI
