The old saying “Where there’s Sarshi, there’s Parsi” now echoes in the corporate corridors with sharper questions. In the army, Parsi officers’ loyalty to the nation is unquestioned, but in business, priorities can blur—was that the case with TCS? Back in 2005, TCS announced a Center of Excellence in Pakistan, later said to have withdrawn or shifted operations locally. Reports suggest Pakistani employees sought easier entry into India and jobs here, raising concerns about national security. Even today, TCS manages India’s passport services, a project that demands absolute trust. With Nashik’s “corporate jihad” numbers possibly crossing 50, as Girish Mahajan hinted, the issue is too serious to ignore. A thorough security audit must ask: has “Nation First” been compromised in the pursuit of business?

Iran’s stance on the UAE stands apart in the Gulf chessboard. Unlike other Arab states, Tehran has treated the Emirates with suspicion, keeping them isolated in regional talks while Pakistan too excluded them from recent dialogues. Reports suggest UAE has demanded repayment of loans from Pakistan, coinciding with Jaishankar’s visit, hinting at Israeli and American pressure. Historically, Iranian strikes during conflicts hit Dubai and Abu Dhabi hardest, targeting what Tehran sees as hubs of Western and Israeli influence. The UAE is not a single nation but a federation of emirates, deeply tied to U.S. and Israeli capital, with Indian investments also woven in. As Turkey signals solidarity with Iran, the emerging axis challenges Israeli dominance. For Tehran, reshaping the UAE’s regime is part of its broader Gulf strategy.

In 2004, Sharad Pawar famously said, “When a bull grows old, he must be shown the market,” using it to insult MP Dada Jadhavrao. Ironically, those very words now circle back to Pawar himself. Once Maharashtra’s kingmaker, today he struggles to walk, speak, and be understood, yet lobbies desperately for a Rajya Sabha seat. Once towering over weaker leaders, he now pleads with them for support, and only out of respect for his age was he sent to Parliament. The episode is a stark reminder: power and prestige are never permanent. Time humbles even the strongest, turning yesterday’s insults into today’s reality. Pawar’s decline shows how the wheel of fortune spares no one, proving that arrogance in strength is always punished by the cycle of time.

Few know the chilling story behind journalist Daniel Pearl’s murder. Pearl, along with a Pakistani reporter, exposed how a faction of ISI worked with MI6 while running Al‑Qaeda. That Pakistani journalist, also linked to the CIA, wrote a book revealing this, but it was banned and he was killed. Pearl himself was kidnapped in Pakistan and executed by Al‑Qaeda with Omar Saeed’s help—an operative who had ties to both MI6 and ISI. Shockingly, the U.S. and CIA raised no serious objections against Pakistan’s government. The episode highlights Washington’s selective silence: ignoring ISI’s role in terror while still engaging Pakistan in talks, even as it negotiates Iran conflicts. It shows how geopolitics often trumps justice, leaving allies’ crimes overlooked for strategic convenience.

Kharat Baba’s antics are a mirror to the rot in governance. From sending fake income tax officers to extort money, to buying land along the upcoming Shaktipeeth highway for profit, his moves expose how corruption thrives under political patronage. Even the bizarre purchases of overpriced chairs and shady contracts show how public trust is looted in the name of “development.” His swaggering line—“Duniya jhukti hai, jhukane wala chahiye”—captures the arrogance of those who know they are shielded. Ministers who sought blessings for power allegedly fed him future plans, proving corruption is never a solo act but a collusion. While the public is told that the government is driving progress, the reality is that progress has become a cover for profiteering. Accountability and real investigation are the urgent need.
