Dr. Kalam is undoubtedly the shining star of our country. He is still the president in the minds of many and it is really sad that corrupt politicians could not see beyond their petty gains. They accumulate riches which they cannot carry beyond their life and nobody will remember them once they are gone.... They may think that their statues accross the country will make them memorable... but no they are mere stones in odd places..... they will never be in the people's memory and when they are talked about it will be with contempt. All we have done in India thus far is replace 'blue blood' dynasties with 'normal blood' dynasties..... dynasties just the same.....systematic rape of the country just the same... common man sufferings just the same...
As par my knowledge Kalam is Indian and not a Tamil/Muslim or any thing else. Please do not try to divide my country based on region/language/cast/religion.

wen did no-ing english bicum a kwalifikashun to be a ministor ? we hav imported italians. let us now import englishmen so that they will all speek good english and we will all have good ministors again.
Family politics is just not confined to DMK, Mr Nadar. Even the congress is full of Mr JN's relatives on the top brass. Ofcourse everybody has worked during elections for their party, and hence would try to grab the opportunities with the support factor even when being new to the field. That is what DMK chief tried to do so but in truth should not have done so. You should have addressed the article in a more broader sense that the congress also repents for its greater scams and follies done in the past and now wants to correct it and change to a new ethnic politics. Then you can bully in the DMK aspects.
It is surprising to see an article of this nature, that too criticising one of the powerfull yet dubious alliance partner of the Secular Congress. The author has rightly pointed out that contrary to BJP's comments on MMS as weakest PM, he has shown courage. This is too early an accolade to be showered on the puppet PM. The author has to remember that in 2004, the same DMK had sent a list of ots ministerial candidates and their desired portfolio, which was agreed to by Congress and the same was distributed to the journos at a press conference held at Anna Arivalayam. Where wre this Ganes Nadar at that time? If Congress is such an holy cow, what prevented it from ordering for a CBI (Congress Bureau of Investigation) on the Madurai Dinakaran incident? After all 3 innocent lives were lost; 3 families lost their bread winners. Yet Dayanidhi Maran who shed crocodile tears at that time is now seen hobnobing with the murderers. No media is dared to raise this issue. But that is understandable, since most of the media are more worried about Narendra Modi, VHP and BJP and to find fault with them. Media turns a blind eye to the so called secular parties' blunders.
Suppose congress is short of seats what will it do? Stick to any stand? What they it before election? Have they not tried to take everybody for support? All wretched fellows
the very first day, alliance are started their role but cong. are in full'masti'.why shud not ? while they have got unexpected seats. but I think this govt.life will be no more than 1 year. since thier partner are not happy to take ministiry and parrelly opponent are searching for new leader.

Finger, dont worry. The govt will last long for simple two reasons: 1. DMK will not withdraw support to Congress as they need Congress help in Tamil to retain power 2. All the alliance partners and outside supporters will not withdraw support for congress for next 5 years as the fear of NDA coming to power and hooking these guys out from Swiss bank will bring nightmare for these people. That is the reason Amar Singh, Mulayam, Mayavati, NCP and all other sundries are ganging up to support Congress, even though Congress never called for such support. The fear of loosing money is enough to keep the flock together.
I feel that Mr. karunanidhi fully deserves his honorary Doctorate.But reat of his demands are purely selfish. He has converted the Dravidian movement of Ramswami Nayakar and C.M.Annadurai into his personal property like any other political party in India,barring the BJP and Communists.This is a real degeneration of Indian politics. I am not a Tamilian,but as an Indian is very proud of Dr.Kalam. This is an appeal to all Indians ,please rise above casteiest politics.
