The elite are working hard to create an army of Non-Player Characters (NPCs) - like those in video games. Exercise of agency can move us from beings cogs to game changers. And that is at the root of our civilization as we know it.
USAID is being dismantled. Contrary to what the moral busybodies declare, the aid infrastructure of the West has actively subverted other societies. Its only when it turned inwards with the same zeal that it is now being dismantled - brick by brick.
China's AI Open Source model - DeepSeek R1 has shaken the tech and geopolitical world. It has ramifications in many areas. We have analyzed every aspect of its impact.
There is a lot of confusion in India about the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC). A lot of lies and propaganda is being spread. Let us understand these two things.
Citizenship Amendment Act is a change in the Citizenship Act of 1955 passed by the Indian Parliament on 12th December 2019.
This act inserted a special proviso, namely
Provided that any person belonging to Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain, Parsi, or Christian community from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, or Pakistan, who entered into India on or before the 31st day of December 2014 and exempted by or under Passport Entry into India Act 1920 or Foreigners Act 1946 shall not be treated as illegal migrant for the purposes of this Act.
Remember this act applies ONLY to minorities who entered India ON OR BEFORE Dec 31, 2014
NRC was added in the CItizenship Act, 1955 via the Citizenship Amendment Act 2003, where the Central government could maintain a National Register of Indian CItizen by establishing a National Registration Authority.
The National Register could be established and maintained by the Registrar General of CItizen Registration. The register was to be maintained at State, District, Sub-district, and local level
The date for initialization of the register and the procedures to create the register was to be decided and announced by the Registrar General of Citizen Registration. Neither the timeline, nor the procedures have been specified.
Some are talking about – what about the NRC for Assam?
Well NRC for Assam was added in the 2003 Amendment to the Citizenship Amendment Act as a special provision. This was because of the clause in the Assam Accord signed by Rajiv Gandhi.
Supreme Court ruling in 2013 mandated the NRC for Assam be completed by the Government of the day within 3 years.

America's Justice Department and SEC have targeted India's Adani Group with a bribery case. Using Nationalistic sentiment doesn't help. Yes, law has been weaponized and India's sovereignty compromised but not how they think. A definitive guide to understanding the case.
Canadian Intelligence and political establishment have played Jekyll and Hyde games while using Khalistanis against India. The stories of omission and strategic misses are so spectacular that only collaboration can explain them.
Geostrategic engagements of Indian PM Modi and his cabinet suggest that India's actions are striking at the very root of the Deep State. That is why everyone from George Soros to his plant Donald Lu are busy planning. A deeper look.
