Respected citizens of India, as I promised you in my previous editorials, I would continue to share my personal love story in this one as well. However, before I share more details about the lady of my heart, I would like to take a moment to discuss something important about both her and me.
These days, I am on cloud nine because I get her good morning message at 6:30 a.m. every day and her good night message around 11 p.m. And most of all, she always stays awake as long as I do, knowing that I worked late the night before. She reminds me from 11 PM until I finally go to bed, and she patiently waits for my last message, which I send to her each night before I sleep.
Since I have stated in previous editorials that I will not reveal her name right now, but when the time comes, I will be proud to share her name with the world. And I apologise for not providing her name or additional information about her since she prefers privacy.
Finally, I have fallen deeply in love with a high-value lady who is the world’s most intelligent and beautiful woman. I would like to express my gratitude to God, as I strongly believe in Him. And believe me, I have strong reasons to express my gratitude to God, and I have been doing so since childhood. Therefore, I strongly believe that God has accepted my wishes and sent a high-value lady into my life forever.
So, dear well-wishers, now I would like to tell you more about her, because she knows I love her more than my life and she loves me more than her life, yet she still asks me every morning, “Do you love me?” If I didn’t respond to her question right away, she would fall silent for hours. So I always made sure to respond quickly with a lovely video message in her messages. After receiving an immediate response from me to her messages, she always sends me plenty of love emojis.
After receiving countless emojis expressing love from her, I find myself over the moon, and I can’t explain it on this editorial page. I can only say that love is a wonderful gift from God, and it is my wish for everyone that they should all fall in love with someone to truly understand what love is.
Believe me, love is a great gift from God, “especially when you don’t expect anything in return from him, her, or anyone else. You should keep loving someone if they are a good person. So continue, Love, and if you are not in love, then just fall in love with someone who has a kind heart.
I was very impressed by her response last week when I was asked about my political journalism. She said, “You are the sailor (political journalist) of your boat, and because you live on the ocean (journalism world), you know it better than anyone else. Therefore, I am always with your passion (political journalism) and whatever decisions you will make in the future. However, you must remember that the Pacific Ocean occasionally reaches 40- to 60-foot waves during severe weather in the middle of the ocean.”
She also told me that, as the ship’s captain, you must act or make decisions based on the ocean scenario because the Pacific Ocean can sometimes control the ship during big storms and bad weather.
She also told me that, as the ship’s captain (editor in chief and founder of National Political Mirror), I had to act or make judgements based on the ocean scenario because the Pacific Ocean can occasionally control the ship during major storms and poor weather.
During our long conversations, she also told me that political journalism may be perilous, especially when dealing with powerful and greedy politicians. According to my little knowledge about politics and politicians, political journalism focuses on politicians, power, and politics, just as the Pacific Ocean is particularly dangerous for ships in bad weather, with waves surpassing 40-60 feet.
Therefore, ship captains always make decisions based on adverse weather to avoid heavy waves or the sinking of a vessel in the middle of the sea. She went on to say, “I have complete faith in you and your decision because you are my captain of the political journalism world.”
It’s time to pause my love tale here, because National Political Mirror (the world’s only weekly political magazine) is a hardcore political magazine. In the following lines, I will discuss the following paragraphs regarding what I have written in this edition.But I assure all of my well-wishers that I will continue to share my love tale in the upcoming edition of the National Political Mirror.
Ladies and gentlemen, I wrote the cover story for this edition of National Political Mirror, as well as a second story about the opposition’s demand for a deputy speaker in Lok Sabha. In addition to the two major stories, I have included recent cabinet decisions and the Election Commission of India’s (ECI) latest initiatives.
Respected citizens who enjoy reading stories about politics, power, and politicians, I would like to inform you that I have lightly criticised the current government of India in my writeup in both political stories as healthy criticism, which always helps to build a strong democracy, but I have criticised the present Narendra Modi government after hours of reading and research.
And I still remember what Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in 2018. During an event in London, he stated that criticism is the “beauty” of democracy. In 2018, he stated that it should be founded on facts and research. So I am simply following Prime Minister Modi’s good suggestion, and there’s nothing wrong with implementing good advice from Prime Minister Modi in political journalism when his wise advice will benefit over 140 crore people in India.
“My problem is not against criticism. To criticise, one has to research and find proper facts. Sadly, it does not happen now. “What happens instead is allegations,” he had said during an interactive session of the ‘Bharat Ki Baat, Sabke Saath’ diaspora event at the Central Hall in Westminster.
Finally, I would like to conclude my editorial by stating that I am convinced that all individuals who are passionate about politics would enjoy reading the pieces published in this edition.At the same time, I also believe that I will continue to write world-class political stories and editorials and create the world’s best cover page of National Political Mirror, which is better than most reputed weekly magazines named TIME. To all of you, I ask that you believe in me and my words, and please allow me to follow my passion for over 140 crores of Indians.
