Indo US Relations



He's wrong. Indian Embassy cannot file lawsuits. It is a violation of Vienna protocols. Only US citizens, lawful US residents, and foreign corporations having a presence in US can have standing to file lawsuits. Diplomats cannot unless they want to lose their diplomatic immunity and subject themselves to the jurisdiction of US which GoI will never allow.

Yes if you enter court system, you are accepting the jurisdiction of the court. Diplomatic immunity would need to be waived. However there is nothing stopping the Indian consulate from funding private Canadians or Indians residing in Canada to file lawsuits

Nope not even allowed otherwise you would be classified as a foreign agent of that nation and that is a big no no.
 
The U.S. Constitution provides robust protections for freedoms of expression and association, foreign NGOs have standing to sue in U.S. courts, and U.S. courts are sufficiently independent to be able to hear a challenge to FARA.
 
Nah, it’s not a big no no. State department funds people via NGOs all the time.

Yes because the host nation don't do any pushback. But in the US, you have to register yourself as an foreign agent because if you do not, the consequences are severe as Paul Manafort found out the hard way.

Yes they can sue but not while being as foreign agents. Their cases would get quickly thrown out.
 
I don’t understand why the family of the hurt individuals doesn’t just sue the perps. Also the NGOs should get funding from Indian government and represent Indians in court.
 
There are companies focus specifically on litigation financing and they basically have a liquidation preference on the settlement and they fund on a contingency basis.
 

Sikh Activists See It as Freedom. India Calls It Terrorism

Devious headline by who else??

Sikh Activists See It as Freedom. India Calls It Terrorism
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/03/world/asia/india-sikh-separatism.html

American CIA giving narration to its project. Simple headline laced with Lunderican propaganda. You read the headline & immediately a certain "figure" of India rises in the unsuspecting mind of those who do not know the details.

"Just like how normal people, the Sikh activists too want "freedom". But India sees this as terrorism. How can India behave in such reprehensible way against the aspirations of normal people?" India is cruel & evil wherein the aspirations of normal Sikh minorities are seen as terrorism. India's prominent opposition leader Rahul Gandhi exposed that Sikhs are not allowed to wear the turban which is a religious obligation. Sikh activists (Ex. Pannun) who love freedom just like the Americans & Canadians had thanked Rahul Gandhi for his bold statement." - This is the gist, this is the context. This is what they really mean. This is the narrative.

Muslim Activists/Freedom Fighters Like Bin Laden & Baghdadi See It As Freedom/Resistance. America Calls It Terrorism.

India has to be innovative, foot soldiers here needs to be named & shamed.
 
I wouldn't be surprised- it's not too far out in left field- that papers/ mags like the NY Times, WP, Time, Guardian, Toronto Star and the like, are carrying provocative and sensational stories about India, as a cheap way to increase sales. It is known that the print media is struggling in the West, one way to offset that is to publish eye catching stories about India and ethnic Indians, knowing that a significant section of the community are big readers of the English print media, at least relative to many other ethnicities. Just a thought!

may not be the case, if so we would have seen evidence by now. they were doing the same even when print media was not in financial crisis, in past decades. in my view, western gaze explains their behaviour better than sales targets.
 
TRUMP won this election electoral votes likely be around 290 and senate likely be a majority republican too.

How it matters to India…

CIA rouge agency budget will likely to be cut many things will be outsourced and all deep state dogs will look inside till next US election cycle.

So India will get more space same as Trump 1, we export too less manufactured goods to USA so tariffs wont hurt us much service export will grow more as many US fed govt institutions will be thrown out and private cos will likely send the outsourcing to It services..

BD will get early elections, China will get more pressure on its manufacturing lines, Russia will get some respite stalemate likely, Israel will fck up gaza, lebanan and west bank, Iran will keep quite for now

Excuse me, what? We export goods worth US$ 70-80 billion to burgerland (our total merchandise exports stood at US$ 437.1 billion in FY 2023-24). Also, one of the very few developed economies we run a trade surplus with. At a time when more and more companies are moving into India, those tariffs will hurt really really bad. It would likely be worse than the trade war trump engaged in last time around (when many of the career republicans kept his tariff policies in check).

75 US Billion export and 45 US billion Import thats peanuts for USA..
And most of these are textiles and petrochemicals one cant put much tariffs on these items GSP was taken away from India in first Trump term.

India will not feel much heat here and service sector export will flourish .. It seems there are around 200 US fed govt institutions which are not critical and service no confidential data most likely these will be outsourced by private cos to India, Philippines.. its a good thing Trump can have few ego wins on goods sector and India can have massive pie in IT service sector
