Shining, shimmering, Aunt Bea?

If Antara had to be "humiliated and altogether reduced", it ought to have been done in 2012. 

In fact, those who had always been close to Baroda, opening accounts with the Bank of Baroda as 10-year-olds, later staying in Baroda, ought to have known how to get it done. 

Colonel James Outram was ousted from his post as Resident at the Gaekwad court in 1853. 

John Chapman, GIPR's engineer, wrote a protest against the ouster in March 1853, called 'Baroda and Bombay'. A copy of the protest was sent to every member of the British Parliament. 

By May 1853, Colonel Outram was reinstated at the Gaekwad court. Did he want to be reinstated because of an eloquent oped? How did he think it impacted the events four years later, in 1857? Antara's research was not offering any explanation. 

Please don't make the mistake of assuming these were esoteric references. Some of Antara's closest relatives frequently cited Colonel Outram when conversing with others. Also remember, the Germans considered Antara ineligible for 'Austrian intelligence', they had arbitrarily decided that 'Borda and Bombay' were eligible for it.

Well, that was the name of GIPR engineer John Chapman's treatise, 'Baroda and Bombay'. 

So quite a few individuals knew what was going on, they lived in Europe, in Britain, in India. These blogposts were turning into the revenge of former batchmates, at what point would Antara falter?

Back in 2012, no one wrote an eloquent oped defending Antara when she had to quit HT. There had arisen a chance to reduce Antara's stature, humiliate her, it was not used. Thirteen years later, by 2025, petitions were being written against Antara for no reason, nation-States were up in arms. 

Antara was not even eligible for prolonged medical care, how did you reach petition-writing?

GIPR engineer John Chapman was not an easy example. 

Chapman's report on the GIPR and cotton trade was submitted to London officials, they approved of the report and then abruptly severed with him. Those who surveilled Antara's life had known that she lived under the constant threat of 'severance'/receiving letters of 'severance' (from what?), since 2021.

At least GIPR's John Chapman was paid 2,500 pounds when he was severed, he had been an employee, how would Antara be 'severed' at all?

At such a point, the discussions turned around, Antara's fate was no longer the same as John Chapman's, she became his Parsi moderate friend Furdoonjee, "Everyone needed an engineer/STEM person to navigate through 21st century life." 

Even if you ignored the outrage of such a suggestion, (which engineers, the capitation fee ones, or the battlefield simulation/IIT ones?), did you know what it meant?

One of the Ghanty girls (Class of 1995) wanted in, she was an electrical engineer, stayed in southern Indian cities, was close to Harris, was comfortable with New Jersey, could take revenge for the Iranian Navy/IRIS Shahid Bagheri blogpost (on FACSIMILE, 'Shopping for Pencils'). 

Amazing, Foochoo wouldn't do, it had to be a Ghanty relative of his, and Antara had thought New Jersey was an aspirational town, what temper, what attitude from NJ!!

The following was what the allusions were indicating, why Antara turned her attention to the Vances.

"If Antara wanted information on BT, she'd have to approach a country hostile to India, information specific to BT was with that country."

No, thank you, Antara could lead her life without knowing BT, she had chosen a few countries for her purposes, that particular one didn't make the cut, so she wouldn't approach it.

Heh, quite the US Republican/GOP support managed by the overseas relatives?

Yes, what else could it be?

Antara would have returned humiliated to HT but Romney didn't win in 2012, so things took a different turn?

Yes, it was The World of Mr Romney.

Had Antara researched Romney's history with the aluminum industry?

Not allowed to say no to Alcoa-related research.

When was Alcoa Wheels invented?

In 1948, the same year as Israel.

Really now? Did it offer mirror-polishing or Agency support?

Mirror-polishing, it just seemed like Agency.

What else?

Alcoa was in aviation, aerospace, so no need to contact or acknowledge Antara in this lifetime.

And the lease?

There's a hair-shine product, Antara used it in her childhood, called Livon? Alcoa polishing was LvL ONE. It was registered, trademarked.
