Iran Disables GPS, Joins China’s Beidou — The End of U.S. Satellite Dominance? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQb_hQalexY

Iran has just shut off GPS across its territory — and switched to China’s Beidou satellite system. Why now? What does it mean for U.S. dominance in space-based navigation and warfare?
Iran’s bold strategic pivot — it may mark the beginning of the end for America’s global GPS monopoly. From WhatsApp tracking scandals and drone warfare to China’s high-precision Beidou system and Belt & Road integration, this decision carries major military and geopolitical consequences.
Why GPS was always a tool of U.S. soft power. How the 1996 Taiwan Strait crisis pushed China to develop Beidou What makes Beidou uniquely powerful in battlefield environments.

Emergency 1975 vs 'Undeclared' Emergency 2025!   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bx6WN5YlUJA  Agency कल आज और कल | Six .. Straight Bat with Rajdeep

1. Too much power concentrated in one  person is injurious to the health of democracy. . the kind of psychopantic chamcha giri personality cult politics that dare I say one hears today

2.  stop treating the police and enforcement agencies as your
private army.  misusing draconian laws , climate of fear and intimidation
today leaders in power often use their control over the police and enforcement agencies to target their political opponents

3. please stop destroying institutions. the gradual erosion of
institutional integrity in this country.  there are hardly any checks and balances in our system left. just look at the manner in which the right to information act for example is being systematically undermined or indeed the election commission's
so-called neutrality that has now come under the scanner

4. the rise of extra constitutional authorities and the vigilantism that is coming with it .today we have vigilante armies who terrorize minority groups who brazenly engage in hate speech who will resort to violence if required and believe they have the protection of those in power .

5. the media must stay .unchained. today there are many social media and digital revolutionaries who can still speak their mind out. but that is scant comfort when some one like Prabir   was pushed into jail where he spent months under highly specious grounds only because his website was anti-government. There are many others who have suffered in different ways from journalists being sacked to sedition charges being put against them to ED investigations to takeovers of media channels . there are enough instances of how state power has been ruthlessly used and has had a chilling effect on media freedoms .

6. the elite especially the urban middle class elite must speak up. there were public spirited groups like the PUCL the People's Union for Civil Liberties and a few brave crusaders who played an important role in highlighting the abuse of human rights and civil liberties in India. Today too, I at time sense a troubling normalization of  authoritarian behavior amongst our elites . When someone is arrested for a tweet or a YouTube video or a standup comedian is being targeted or a cartoon critical of whoever is in power leads to imprisonment should we not raise our collective voice far more forcefully as citizens silence is cowardice. Reversing a democratic recession and creeping autocracy needs far more men and women with a spine to push back. Whenever there is a misuse of power that to my mind is one of the enduring lessons of 1975 that we need to relearn.

The Unmaking of India: How the British Impoverished the World’s Richest Country  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIzQxNZfGM4 Over 190 years of colonial rule, the British collapsed India's institutions and economy, and destroyed the equivalent of $45 TRILLION. This is the shocking story of how the British -- through the East India Company first, then the Crown -- actually accomplished such a horrible feat.
