Chuck Hagel warns China!  USA has become, of late, a real paper tiger. It never 'says' anything. It 'warns'! Who is afraid? None. Absolutely none. Russia, China, Syria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, you name it, not even African countries! Is it prepared to put its troops where its mouth is? When it was selling all kinds of heavy arms and war planes to every country willing to pay the price, it should have known you reap what you sow! Capitalistic countries focusing only on profits without any plan for future, always end up like this. After the devastation of world war and then the atrocities of Mao tse-Tung it quietly drew up a very long term plan: First enticed the USA's business by offering cheap labor and has almost made it totally dependent upon it for small and medium industrial products costing the USA millions of local jobs for its own citizens. In the process its own economy thrived and it built a 1000 billion dollar portfolio! US will go bankrupt if China c

Arvind Kejriwal needs another chance, as I need another plague! No party gets a chance to form a government after the very first election and AK-47 got that chance. He did not know the value of it and resigned on false pretext. People of Delhi will be without a government for almost a year because of him and people's money running into crores will be spent for another election. Even now he does not have a plan what he will do if the same situation arises. It is funny he promises not to resign from the government presuming he will be elected with majority now. He should also tell what he will do if he is in minority and whether he will side with any other party to form a government or will put the blame for dissolution and another government on other parties? His broke his promise on his own children, did not keep his promise on prosecuting Sheila Dikshit for corruption, made a mockery of his promise for reduction in electricity bills, forgot his promise for supply of water to

CONFESSIONS OF JAIRAM RAMESH! It is sad that Ramesh sees only foxing each other in the elections. He does not yet see the only major issue which was voted by one and all was inflation, which affected every individual and corruption among almost every government agency or servant, from top to bottom, which abolished level playing field in everyday life. Modi explained in simple words by making Gujarat a shining example that both issues could be tackled. Besides he also proved casteism is a non-issue when it is an option of either casteism or development. The next election will be fought on the basis of how much Modi worked ONLY for development and how far he succeeded. Even if he succeeds 30% or above, he will be re-elected. Of course, Congress will fight on the basis of what has not been done or what has gone wrong, etc. and any such negative propaganda will get it nowhere. On the other by suggesting improvements in the proposals and making Modi accept their suggestions by prom

What was missing in Modi's speech: India consists of poor, middle-class, higher-class, rich, very rich and super rich.  All those in higher classifications did not reach there ONLY by unscrupulous means nor all those in lower classifications remain there because of oppression by higher classes. The government belongs to all and it is its duty to take care of all. Exclusively talking about the welfare of only the poor or imply that country belongs to the poor only alienates the higher classes. A large percentage of those in higher classes come from the lower classes after spending years in studies and hard work. Not getting the well deserved recognition will only make them lose any interest in government policies and in their implementation. It should be fully recognized that if poor represent labour, higher classes represent capital and they co-exist. One cannot do without the other. Unless both are recognized uniformly, divisions will continue to enlarge between them and we

IS MULAYAM A TULSIDAS? Facts do not guide your decisions. What you think are facts guide your decisions. The fact that ALL  U.P. electorate has rejected communal politics or all over India Muslim minority has finally got out of that web weaved around them only to get their votes and not for their welfare, has not yet sunk in the mind of Mulayam. Till it does he will continue with his communal politics. Do you remember the story of Tulsidas who was holding for support a snake while trying to cross the river Ganga? He seriously believed it was not a snake, but thought it was a low hanging branch of a tree? Mulayam is modern Tulsidas. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/lok-sabha-elections-2014/news/Mulayam-to-vacate-one-of-his-seats-for-Muslim-face/articleshow/35406626.cms?utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=timesofindia

ONLY A FOOL WILL COMMIT THE SAME MISTAKE TWICE. WILL YOU? Arvind Kejriwal thinks he is very clever. He has proof of it. Did not he replace the entrenched Congress Party and its Chief Minister from the Capital of the largest democracy in the world by democratic process within a period of just a few months? Without any money of his own, but from donations openly received and above all with his own eloquence? Did not he almost got a majority of his own after the very first election? What more proof you may ask for? You know confidence tricksters? They too look and act and make people believe they are very very intelligent and honest and know what they are talking about. That is until they are caught. Have you seen magicians performing feats which are totally unbelievable? You will not know how they do it, though you know what they were showing was some trick. Once you come to know what the trick was, you are no more interested in the magician or trickster. Now the problem is Arv

ANOTHER DYNASTIC RULE COMING DOWN IN J&K  State Governments on the verge of being replaced are taking last minutes decisions like the previous Congress Govt did at the Center. While some good decisions were taken at this last moment because they had been kept in abeyance for years due to corruption, the J&K Govt is going in the opposite direction. It is removing a ban on sending prepaid SMSes on cell phones which was placed at the request of security agencies four years before! This removal will only aid terrorists for creating unrest by sending mass SMSes. A parting kick! Why are they removing the ban NOW which they had imposed earlier? The Abdullahs had been ruling J&K claiming that they were alone capable of controlling the Pak terrorists, while they had always been in touch with the terrorists and allowing them to create panic situations now and then in mutual interest. Congress government was fully aware of the situation but let the situation continue, because

TOI TRYING TO BELITTLE MODI's VICTORY! http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/lok-sabha-elections-2014/news/BJPs-31-lowest-vote-share-of-any-party-to-win-majority/articleshow/35315930.cms The author of this article has tried his best to belittle the victory of the BJP by twisting facts beyond recognition. He has been in a great hurry and probably is not aware that there are different electoral systems, all totally democratic. The article starts with a false conclusion. You cannot compare the winning percentage of the votes of 1967 with that of 2014 because the number of parties sharing the votes has enormously increased. If there were 2 parties then, the minimum winning percentage will be 51; but when there are 4 parties, the minimum percentage will be 26. "Not even one in three chose BJP" exclaims the author.  This statement will be true only if people had been asked to vote in its favour or against it. As the number of contesting parties increases and als

Election results 2014: Reverse polarization is why Muslim votes did not count in UP and Bihar If you seriously believe this, you should also be believing the canard of Christian Missionaries bent upon converting everyone into Christianity. It is true that there are some people and even some well managed organizations with the sole purposes of universalizing their religion. But you will find them existing even after ten centuries, just like those who deny climate change now.  You may ask why then the majority of Muslims don't laugh at the few sticking to this propaganda. It has many reasons. One is the very wide spread comparative, but distinctly obvious, poverty among Muslims as compared to others. This gives them a feeling of inferiority complex. Just as well-to-do people group together, so do poor and they hold on to their religion as a group identity to feel better. So much so that most of them are afraid even to speak against the violence indulged by a few among them

OLD WINE IN NEW BOTTLE: We should not underestimate the cunning AAP leadership. They do have a long term plan and according to that only they are working. Till today the plan has worked 100% right. They almost got majority in Delhi. They quit because they had collected enough money till then and there was no scope in running a government and make money, unless your party is corrupt. They could not afford that because that will be the end of their party. So they quit. They put up 400+ candidates after collecting hefty sums from them and collected much more by one line collections bluffing that they were running an expensive national campaign. A major portion of that money was spent in the campaign of Arvind Kejriwal because even if he is the only one elected, he will have a great publicity speaking in parliament and throwing mud on everybody. Their plan is to contest in all state assembly elections till 2019 and gather votes. Their next goal is to collect enough votes in elections so

HOW TO CONTROL CANDIDATES FROM VIOLATING MODEL CODE OF CONDUCT? Election Commission should not keep on issuing notices of violation to candidates and others. With the first notice EC should say that if another violation occurs, they will be designated officially as 'unreliable' candidates and in spite of that one more (third instance of such folly) instance occurs, they should be debarred for six years from contesting any election. That will make sure they don't cross the line.

MODI TO ANNOUNCE HIS RETIREMENT? These old bandicoots think that there is no retirement in public life! For God's sake Joshi is 80 and Advani is 87! And these stretcher cases want to continue in office till they are 85 and 92? Are they so blessed with wisdom and administrative skills that India cannot do without them? Is India so bereft of capable hands? I am sure Modi will not allow any of these guys to hold any office requiring active handling. They can, of course, considered for any honorary office. To teach all these guys, it would be better if Modi himself announces that he would retire politics just like Vajpayee after two terms of office when he would be around preferably 74 or at worst he will not serve later than 80. This will shut their mouth. http://www.ndtv.com/elections/article/election-2014/murli-manohar-joshi-meets-rss-chief-bats-for-sidelined-bjp-leaders-520163

RUSHDIE & HIS ILK: These opinionated 'intellectuals'! They think if, a big IF, they are good in their fields, they are good enough to advise everybody else. Did they utter a single word all these ten years about what was going on? No, because according to them these are 'political' matters and do not concern them. But suddenly they realize they might be missing the big parties and the gatherings of their ilk.  They might not get the big media adulation anymore. If they are not a part of it, how could anything be good for the nation? For them poverty and poor people did not exist in their India, which as one of them put it "is a state of mind".  But come May 16, those whom these people despise, will be stealing the headlines and after a few years  getting all media attention. The poor of yester-years and 'unlettered' will be sitting along with them! Imagine these elites might even be looked down! OMG!  How can they put up with that? All these

Will what started with Pandit Nehru and Edwina Mountbatten end with Digvijay Singh and Amrita Rai? I will not blame only men like these two elderly persons who should have known better than degrading women on the sly even while holding high positions. But what can we do about this, when even young women not only do not care to understand the true meaning of different relationships, but protest vehemently even when addressed as 'daughter'!
