The Trump administration is capping annual refugee admissions at a record-low 7,500 people and reserving most slots for white South Africans. Previous limit was 125,000 for Refugee Admission per year in USA. For decades, the U.S. refugee program has applied to people fleeing war and political violence. Trump has sought to reshape refugee admissions in the United States, which as recently as the 2024 fiscal year welcomed thousands of people from countries such as Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Syria, and Venezuela.

Trump returned USA from a trip to Malaysia, Japan, and South Korea that saw Vietnam pledge to increase purchases of U.S. goods and Japan and South Korea detail planned U.S. investments. Trump also signed a commitment to cooperate on rare earths with Japan, Malaysia, and Thailand, and struck a trade truce with China.  He did not stay in the region for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit. In overall—Trump seems to achieve his goals.

  OPERATION SINDOOR ECONOMIC LOSSES OF PAKISTAN SARASIJ MAJUMDER It will be difficult for Pakistan to come out of the loss it suffered in this 4-day KINETIC WAR, fought only in the airspace, involving Fighter Jets, Missiles, and DRONES as attacking weapons. Pakistan claims that J-10C jets, equipped with PL-15 missiles, were used in combat, and that they downed multiple Indian Rafale and other fighter jets. GOI has not accepted any loss of Fighter Jet.

  UNDERSTANDING WOMEN SARASIJ MAJUMDER   In a poem titled   ‘ বিদায় অভিশাপ ’—(FAREWELL CURSE)--, Tagore wrote: ........ রমণীর   মন   সহস্র বর্ষেরই   সখা সাধনার ধন । । [ ( To understand) Mind of a woman, my dear, ||You need a devotion of thousand years. ]—- Translation is mine. In simple language—‘One Life is not good enough to understand the mind of a Woman’—that is what, Devyani—the heroine of the poem said to Koch, her beloved. And I agree after completing 46 years of married life! However, based on my experience—I wanted to write an article on the subject, sharing my understanding for Romeos of future generations. This BLOG is an attempt towards that. Before I start—I want to share an interesting dialogue I had in an evening, with one of my American friend, ( married, and was living with wife and kids,) at his Ranch at Texas. When the darkness of evening started falling upon us, he told me: “….Mate—I understand Machines, Horses, Dogs…...

There are a few higher stratas as well e.g. MAHARSHI (KANWA), RAJARSHI (King Janaka), DEBARSHI (NARODA),   ‘SHRUTORSHI’—who learned, and remember VEDAS by hearing, e.g. Vasishta; or only ‘Rishi’-e.g. Gautama.   There are 18 ‘VEDABYASAS’—and all are ‘MAHARSHIS’. ...
