But we South Indians won't accept Hindi as national language. Sanskrit is a better language than Hindi if a national language is to be made.

We don't care what is acceptable or not acceptable to Northies. Hindi was never and will never be accepted as a national language.

@ The Democracy I am not Tamil. But it ia fact that 50% of India cannot or does not want to speak Hindi. So how can Hindi be called a national language ???? Even Hindi is not one of the state language of Bengal, Orissa, Gujarat, Maharashtra, etc.

The sad part is : what will you do when there are so many dumb people in India and they are ready to fight over region and languages? Just notice how many people fighting over north/south, languages/culter etc. When there are so many dumb people in India, it is too easy for enemies to use DIVIDE AND RULE!

We need to KILL all the racist Western Imperialists OR force them to take their cancerous racist tumor home, back to Europe.

Nicholas Eberstadt is obviously trying to divide India. Will Indians understand this? Probably not. India is full of dumb idiots who just want to fight for no valid reason!

Exactly!!Fisrt of all even if he has published it,why should Rediff include it in the website?Also, just observe the tone of Aziz haniffa as he writes "Now a leading American demographer has debunked the hype about India's 'demographic dividend.'.Why Indian Muslim writers are enjoying if anyone tries to prove the theory of India-becoming-super power wrong?Also why does Rediff has most Muslim authors,even for a issue like Yoga ,when there are abundant Hindus writers much more qualified than these authors?I have generally seen that, Muslim authors are always less happy and enthusiastic about Indias growth as Super Power than general Hindu writes!!Websites in India should support the growth and general aspirations of the majority of the people in the country, not supporting these generally anti-India authors!

The reality bites sometimes.. But it better bite now than in 2030 or 2020 or whenever is the deadline for the plans.. sometimes the tone and tenor might be diferent.. See it has got you thinking .. It is best to educate the masses so that the jobs will be taken by Indians themselves than (already happening) lot of foreigners taking up the jobs because of no education to the masses

Now that is the same kind of hatred and prejudice that our politicians are filling in the minds of the pppl.
You noticed the name "Aziz Haniffa" first...but you did not noctice where it said "reporting from washington"..
Is it no possible that the bloke might be an american?
But it is our religious based hatred which blinds our thinking...
Sorry but if we do not pull ourselves from this religious, region and caste divide. If we do not see beyond these blinders. If we do not start trusting each other as majority of us are pro-indians...Then god/allah/bhagwan save our country

OK...Then tell how many Top indian companies are owned by south indians?? except Infosys??
I am not into a north versus south fight. But i want to open ur eyes and also of some north indians, that we need each other.
Agreed that most executives are southies but the funds and businesses are in the north.

HCL - Shiv Nadar is a Southie, UB Group - Vijay Mallya is a Southie,MRF Tyres - Kerala owned, India Cements...its all from South.

@ adfasd Agreed with your point on North Indians dominate business. Then why they do not want to set up industries in North India ????? That is a point to be pondered upon by Northies.

by adfasd asdasd on Mar 19, 2011 12:21 PM
You still dont understand...
I have already said that the executives who manage businesses are majorly south indians.
But the business acumen and entrepreneurship is in north.
If we live separately then North will starve as they cannot run a business without south indians and the south indians might become slaves of western businesses...and work for them.
The Brits sowed the seeds of didvison on the basis of religion, North South divide, Aryan Invasion. Maculay made the divide stronger by laying the foundation of Indian's English a education to keep the divide perpetual and the Indians bit the bait, line and sinker. The CIA paid some of our leaders in 1964 to burn the fire of language and keep it burning and our great leaders of the South swallowed it keeping the fire of the divide burning. We as fools and slaves follwo our white master bidding in our eagerness to show that we are progressive and advanced. Do the Chinese, the Japs, the Russians, the Germans know English? But see their growth. While we quarrell among ourselves, the West makes hay. Forget the differences and work together to byuild a great nation. We r still underr the white yoke. The diversity of our country is its uniqueness and its strength which no other country can be proud of. As long as we continue to look down upon ourselves and get carried away by the stements of the white, we shall never grow.

by adfasd asdasd on Mar 19, 2011 03:32 PM
well then open ur eyes and get blinded by the hatred amongst indians on this forum...
tHE BEST THING ABOUT HUMAN BEINGS IS THAT WE LOVE TO LOOK INTO PAST AND DREAM OF THE FUTURE. IF THE PRESENT IS NOT ALRIGHT THEN THERE CAN BE NO PAST, AND INFACT OUR PAST IS DREADFUL, AND FUTURE LOOKS BLEAK. WE RESPECT LESS OF HUMAN BEINGS, LESS OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE EMPATHY AND COMPASSION THAT IS NEEDED OF US HUMANS IS PATHETIC. WE NEED EDUCATION THAT MAKES US HUMANBEINGS NOT ANIMALS, WE NEED JOBS THAT HELP US SERVE, AND FINALLY THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS EVIL AND GOOD, IF ONE GROUP IS DEPRIVED THEN THERE IS BOUND TO BE EVIL, AND IF OTHER IS GETTING THEN THEY NEED TO GO FOR THE STATE OF BEING GOOD. IT IS THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAKE US DO THINGS THAT ARE TERMED AS EVIL AND GOOD. BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT ELEMENT MISSING IN US HUMAN BEINGS IS EMPATHY. CASTE, COLOR, RELIGION ARE MAN MADE. INTELLIGENCE IS BORN WITH BUT IF WE MISS TO USE INTELLIGENCE AND COMMONSENSE THEN WHAT WORTH ARE WE TO BE CALLED AS HUMANBEINGS. SHAME ON OUR PARTS, we call ourselves as humanbeings.
Just look at the posts in this forum....indians fighting amongst themselves like cats and dogs....Whoever this demographer is....he has succeeded.
Instead of proving these imperialists wrong we are questioning and arguing about northies, southies, hindus, muclims, christians who are all INDIANS???
250 years of british slavery has not taught us anything. This is the reason why Nawab of Bengal, Tipu Sultan, the Peshwas lost out to the british.
I firmly believe that the only thing which can stop us from becoming superpower is the religious, regional and caste divide in India.
These westerners are afraid of us and the know our strengths and weaknesses better than us, and they working to put us back in slavery like they have done to the middle-east.
Beware indians your today's actions can make your children slaves of the western powers again!!!!
These westerners are succeeding again in making us slaves.

I agree and it is the only truth. We very proudly strut around and display our knowledge of English which not even 5% of the poulation can understand not to talk about speak and write. look at the Americans, they drove away the Brits, fought a civil war among themselves to keep the country united and today they r the power all bercause they r united. It is a melting pot of many nationalities, language, culture andhabits etc etc but still united and proudly has a black prsident.Division in shat ever form is deadly. Our so called political leaders to perpetuate their hold on the chair divide us. We all know that the minority plank is played for votes. In Assam a minority party was formed some years back and now an ex chief minister of the congrss has joined it.

Westerners can't be blamed for India's problems today. I feel that North-South divide is real and is there to stay. That is what this American author is also saying. Anyway, only time will tell who is correct...
Re: Re: They have succeeded again!!!
by Sushil Kumar Saraf on Mar 19, 2011 12:50 PM
The whites cannot be blamed directly, but if we go deep into anything connected with them, if we read Indian history n go deep into it we shall know. We r all Macaulay's children who wanted people whose thoughts were english but body Indian. He wiped out all that is Indian from the Wnglish educated n that is why we deried whatwver is Indian. V do know nothing about India. V love anything Western and what they say so much so that our so called elites, rich egarely qeued outside the foreign embassies to purchse even their old under garments during the quote raj. We have no slef respect n it is all the result of the present education n the present leaders want to continue with it to perpetuate their n their progenies hold on power.
