12 QUESTIONS TO U.S. PRESIDENT, DONALD TRUMP FROM INDIANS

 

Sir,

This is with reference to the denigration of Indians in general and their duly elected leaders in particular:

1. Language used by you in your Truth Social posts shows that your family set-up, education, work place failed to inculcate civility in your spoken language. What do you say?

2. You have called us as ‘laptop gangsters’. Why then are your MNCs recruiting Indians with IT degrees in highest posts?

3. You refer to our motherland as hellhole. Have you thought what the Nativists think about you and your ancestors who took away their land by force?

4. You refer to Indians as bringing their families to US through subterfuge. Does the family system exist among the whites in US or is it all but broken?

5. If you have ever read global history the whites colonized 2/3rds of the world and raised families there including marriage with locals. The locals never took umbrage. Why should you get bothered now?

6. US has taken the benefit of getting readymade doctors, engineers, IT experts, nurses without spending a penny on their education which they received in India. You recruit them as of use to your economy and pay them pittance and make them face racial discrimination. Is the US establishment not into gangsterism?

7. About 15 months earlier you had sent plane-loads of Indians handcuffed, half starved, allegedly on grounds that they were illegal immigrants. Don’t you dare to repeat what you did at that time? This action of yours violated national, international laws.

8. You badly need the services of a psychiatrist to assess your mental health. Are you prepared for that? Else under US state laws restraint can be used to get you to a psychiatric institution for a check-up and for which no court order is needed.

9. You have denigrated progress of Indian economy by calling it ‘dead-economy’ but which is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Do you understand you are making a laughing stock of US presidency?

10. Do you understand that your present action at Hormuz has destabilized global economy?

11. Would you kindly forget about using nuclear bomb which could threaten countries in the middle east right up to the shores of India?

12. While you should feel free to deal with both Pope and Christ as you like, please show restraint in referring to leaders of India and Indians. Could you honestly inform the world why you are dodging appearance in Epstein files enquiry by Senate House Committee?

India like Iran and China are ancient civilizations about which you need to read up so that you show respect that is due to ancient civilizations.

Thanks.

Open letter to President Donald Trump

Sir,

Media reports in India indicate certain comments attributable to you and which project India, Indians in bad light. Your choice of words leaves much to desire. Is this really the assessment you have about us Indians?

Thanks,

P.S. Sahni & Shobha Aggarwal

PRESS RELEASE: Supreme Court Seeks Union Government’s Response on Plea Challenging Non-Enforcement of Delhi Rent Act, 1995 for three decades

 

A Bench of the Supreme Court of India comprising Hon’ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal and Hon’ble Mr. Justice Vijay Bishnoi on Monday, 9 March 2026 directed the Union of India to file its counter affidavit in a writ petition challenging the continued non-enforcement of the Delhi Rent Act, 1995 (“1995 Act”) for nearly three decades.

The Court granted the Union Government four weeks to file its counter affidavit. The petitioner has been permitted to file a rejoinder affidavit within two weeks thereafter. Earlier, on 7 January 2026, the Supreme Court had issued notice to the Union Government in the matter.

During the hearing, the Bench questioned the Government on why the Act has not been notified. The Government counsel sought time to file counter, stating that the matter had come up for hearing for the first time.

The Government also raised a preliminary objection that the petitioner had approached the Supreme Court directly instead of first moving the High Court.

Responding to the objection, the petitioner, Ms. Shobha Aggarwal, who is appearing in person, pointed out that in Common Cause v. Union of India (Judgement dated 8 October 2003), the Supreme Court had declined to issue a writ of mandamus directing the Government to notify the Delhi Rent Act, 1995. In light of that decision, she argued, the High Court would likely have dismissed the petition at the threshold.

The matter will be taken up after the completion of pleadings.

The petition raises an important constitutional question: whether a law duly enacted by Parliament can be kept in abeyance indefinitely – in the instant case for over thirty years – without being brought into force?
