Clean politics - is that possible ?
by Shankar Lal on May 28, 2009 02:59 AM

A truck with over 100 cases of Indian Made Foreign liquor was seized from outside BJP leader Rajiv Goyal’s house in the first week of may 2009? Goyal's workers were caught red handed while transferring the liquor to another van. The driver's statement helped cops to seize another truck load of liquor on its way to Surat, Gujarat. Not that Congress or other political parties are clean, but that we have to live with the fact that Politics cannot be completely clean. Leaders promise freebies to people as if they are bearing the cost out of their pocket, poor people does not recognise that the money belongs to them. Freebies would never solve our problems, India need more jobs and opportunities. Our democratic system allows the countrymen to chose the best of the lot. We need to appreciate our election officials for conducting this election by far the best it had done so far. No party has complained of major booth rigging or violence except for the maoist incidents. Respect the voice of our country men and do not take them for granted. Many popular leaders had to bite the dust while many young leaders won with flying colors. India is growing (not talking abt population :) ) and people are getting more educated and aware of their rights.

Yeah, may be we are dull heads but, at least we don't get beaten up or shot by Americans and Australians in their own soil like the people from APs. I have seen groupisms of AP guys in many countries and they always are very vulnerable to getting to trouble with natives of other countries. AP guys are kind of irritants to any good society.

Hi Mr.Reddy:
Tamil Nadu sent 28 MPs for the UPA and got 7 cabinet and 3 other ministries. Andhra sent 33 MPs and got only 1 cabinet position. Who is dull headed? Go**is can never improve. Don't be so dumb.

@anto lara - Do you know if your birth or community certificate is real? It is what your parents put down right? So don't generalise my friend. If you have something against the guy who talks crap address him/her, why are you venting your fury against the entire community. Gosh, when will we grow up as a nation.

Let me make it clear, I am not a Telugu, but have lot of Telugu friends who are really smart and have very good and genuine qualifications. There are bad apples in every community, let us as Indians try to root that evil out. Unless we come together as a nation we will not be able to succeed in any field. With people like Krishna Reddy and you, it takes a serious attitude change to achieve that.

A proud Indian!

One thing I have noticed amongst Tamils and Bengalis. They think they are superior than everyone else. At least within Tamil there some who are technically savvy, Bengalis are nothing but blabber mouths. Both of them like to surround themselves with chamchas and that's how they survive. These people forget one thing almost all the IT company where they draw their salary from is owned and founded by non tamilians and non bengalis. They (entire population) forever hang on to Tagore and Ramunujam as their selling pitch

KARUNANIDHI
by proud iyer on May 26, 2009 11:10 AM  | Hide replies

Chief Minister and DMK president M Karunanidhi on Monday accused a newspaper baron in the State of running a malicious campaign against the Congress- DMK alliance during the just concluded Lok Sabha elections.


Without naming the newspaper owner, he said the person camped in Delhi and continued his campaign among other media.

“But the results of the polls has made that person and the Delhibased television channels cut a sorry figure,” he said in a statement here.

Referring to former Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru’s remark that the Ramayana was the story of Aryan-Dravidian rivalry, Karunanidhi said those who closely followed the politics at the national level and in Tamil Nadu would agree that the statement still holds good.

“Even now, the enemies of Dravidas, hidden under the appendage of ‘Dravida,’ desperately try to attack us by re-enacting Vaali Vadham [Lord Rama, in the Ramayana, killed Vaali, the monkey king, by hiding himself].

The enemies of Dravidas use newspapers and television as weapons.” He said till the results were out on May 16, a strong campaign was going on in the media, asserting that the DMK-led alliance would draw a blank and that the Union Government would be formed as per the wishes of AIADMK general secretary J Jayalalithaa.

“A newspaper owner ran a malicious campaign as if the person has taken a vow,” the Chief Minister said.

Typical Karunanidhi politics. Whenever he wishes to divert any shortcomings he takes the third amendment -- Ramayana, Hindu Gods etc. Nehru was less knowledgeable when (if) he mentioned its Aryan & Dravidian clash. It is totally wrong. Swami Vivekananda proved it before Nehru could base again on the falsehood. In Valmiki Ramayan when Hanuman visits Lanka he sees Raavana performing their daily durbar activities. Hanuman wonders Raavana's knowledge, depth in Vedas; his bhakti on Lord Shiva and lo and behold Hanuman praises (in his mind) on the lustorous and light complexion (white) of Raavana. Rama is dark and Raavana is white as per the original writer Valmiki. Rama is son of kshatriya and Raavana is son of a Brahmin Rishi. So this is absurd to claim as Arya and Dravida rift. Infact Rama was helped by Dravidians (including the primitives in Dravida place, vaanaraas) to defeat Raavana. This Karunanidhi knows very well because all these were told by Cho Ramaswamy many a times. But Karunanidhi picks it up every time whenever he wants to divert the attention. He is successful every time, most probably this time as well.

Clone (or) did you mean cross? Either way it is wrong because vaanaraas are told as primitives evolutionarily to the present humans. A story can be true or fiction or mix-of-both. Even if Ramayana is a pure fiction story still one cannot disrespect the author's word and twist on one's own wish. Valmiki Ramayana, as I stated, does clearly gives the indication and proof against the frivolous claim made by Karunanidhi (which he quotes from Nehru and who in turn might quote from some other british/western missionary). Fiction or truth one should not tell something which was not mentioned in the "stated". Hope you go by this, so taking this kind of argument still proves Karunanidhi's claim is falsehood. You just go and prove this to him this spineless (no pun intended) will just direct it to Nehru and say that I merely say what Nehru was saying. If that is the case he should still believe the world is flat because many learned like the Nehru, in those days, believed so.

Inasmuch as it highly desirable that congress if it wishes honesty and truth quit the alliance of DMK. It should not stop over here. Further embargo has to be raised against all rights of these parties(DMK,ADMK,BJP etc) because of their total duplicity and illegitimacy. One must be perepared for a genocide in case of any oppostion to such views.

let us not drift from the main point in disputing caste/religion/states. The point is how clean is DMK. It is agreed that all politicians are corrupt and family oriented. But DMK is the only party where the principle is ' earn by corruptive methods and promote only Karuna and his family ".I am from tamilnadu and u must vist the state to see how badly it is being managed. As per MK the reason for all the problems are RAMA / Brahmins. When HINDU news paper supported DMK , it is a paper that telle only the truth and when it says against MK, it is paper controlled by Brahmin. Only to illustrate MK's mind I have said this and not to raise any communal comments. request friend not to jump on the assumption.No civil work in your house can take place unless you bribe the local DMK functionary even though u hv all the approvals. If u fail to pay, you have to face the music. Mr.MK , where did you and your family got the crores and crores of money when u hv hailed from a very poor family. DMK in 60's was against HINDI but Marans studied HINDI. MK preach only for the people and will do opposite when it comes to his family.Do u all think there are no leaders in the party who have toiled in the party and quality to become ministers/party leaders. Why only position for family members. Exception may be Stalin who came from ranks and fought in difficult times and comparitively a gentleman. This party do not believe in GOD but all their other family members visit temple. See the true colors.

Rahuls stand is unethical
by Prakash on May 26, 2009 06:06 AM  | Hide replies

Azhagiri has been selected as MP by the people. Before the election also every one knows that Azhagiri is tainted. But people still voted him. Not only that Congress also had alliance with DMK by knowing all these people. Azhagiri has won with leading votes in his constituency. So he has all the rights to become a minister. After all the cabinet has to be formed only with in the selected MP's. Rahul stand on Azhagiri as tainted is unethical. This thought should have come before keeping the alliance with DMK and not after winning with the support of them.

There is nothing moral about all these drama. It is pure bully politics - DMK thought of getting a lions share as earlier and it blinked first got the loin share :). Cong played perfect on the family rift to insist on Maran's inclusion. If the attack and kill of newspaper office being a reason of denying ticket to Maran then same yard stick should be applied for Mamta wherein her party cadres did similar act during singur/nandigram uprise. i am no supporter of DMK/Left but just also want to point out the similar problems in Cong's home which is conveniently forgotten. By the way, just because Azhagiri won with a comfortable doesn't become his "all the right to become a minister", if that is the case all those 540 except everyone beloved Manmohan Singh who is not elected by people, has right to become ministers. But as stated Rahul's said stand on tainted is unthical it should have been taken into account while aligning. The reason why Cong is against Baalu becoming the minister is not because he was swindling money (cong has no locus standi even now to think in that line), but because he was open -- admitting in parliament (remember his audacity in saying "whats wrong in recommending for family" when raised on his push in petroleum minister to allot pumps to his kins) and forcing govt. to lie on Ram is no god kind of foolishness.
