Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

I believe Modiji is truly a statesman the likes of whom we have not seen before. I am old enough to remember JLN. I doubt any other PM has had the strength of character, the charisma, popular appeal and most importantly, the courage to boldly go forward with what he believes in, which is the good of...

Re: The_Yogi watch dhaga

About time! Somebody with big b@ll$ was needed and we have one. I have always felt that the NaMo+YA combination is a masterstroke in politics, one promotes Vikas - sabka saath etc, the other is unapologetically and systematically enforcing the law of the land, without fear of it being seen as pro-Hi...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Problem is building military strength requires higher level of budgetary allocation and this year the allocation in terms of percentage was lowest in the last 58 years. I watched several debates on TV and the retired military generals were sharp in criticism of the govt. They also graded the govt. ...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Personally. I do appreciate him as PM of the nation and still will vote for him but he is no 'Hindu Hriday Samrat'. He never claimed to be. In his position he cannot and I believe should not. We are indeed a secular nation even though a large number of people have abused this. What is important is ...

Vikas, IMO, 'muscular policy' is working to the extent that India is containing Pakis. ....................... To thwart Pakis from persisting with this game plan, India needs to have an offensive military capability that it does not currently have. Unless Pakijabis pay and unbearable price, neithe...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - 3 (Oct 2018 - )

Right now the CBI saga reminds me of the old 'Spy vs Spy' cartoons. However, I suspect Asthana will be brought back once the storm dies down and there is concrete evidence against Verma. Modi is not going to sit idle while the biggest investigative agency in the country becomes the laughing stock of...

She was among those who invited him to speak at JNU. She claims there are other JNU students among her friends who he raped. The article is i...

What makes my blood boil is that the poster children for the protestors who want to enter the shrine are an Xtian and a Muslim! Clearly these people do not have any devotion or affiliation with Hinduism and far less, Lord Ayyappa himself. Imagine the reaction if it was a Hindu woman trying to get in...

The BJP is caught between the devil and the deep blue sea.

Screw BJP/RSS (I can't believe I am saying this), but my faith in Ayyappa is above this. I am not a devotee myself, but I can well understand this. The devotion in Lord Ayyappa transcends caste barriers as far as I know. Which means, this perhaps is the first time (apart from the infamous Dec 6, 19...

One major worry I have is that the SC may now come up with an anti-Hindu verdict on RJB. That would be akin to a nuclear disaster for Hindus and for India.

This Hindu men as lecherous and sexual perverts comes from colonial days and is currently promoted by the Urban Naxal - EJ gangs.
