Britishers gave India its massive rail network, aviation network, road network. Without British, there would have been no airports in India. If British had stayed just 20 more years, there would have been metro in all cities. After 1947, we only got delhi metro because Govt never had enough funds.

Mr. R. Gupta, everything you have stated is correct but for the last segment of the last sentence-Govt never had enough funds-It should read-Govt had no funds for citizens but had plenty of money to be stacked in Swiss banks.

They gave network of fallacies and widespread cracks among societies and derailed all the harmonies and divided the landscape for all treacherous purposes where development of any kind was to destroy the strength of masses with the sole purpose of exploitation to the core and create slaves till generations after;

Not surprised with your view, especially after seeing the way the Congress had run the country!
Let's hope the new dispersion will fulfill our hopes.

Did I hear you say 'The congress had run the country' I thought you wanted to say 'Ruined the country'.
No Airport means .PEACE . Pray but what are the reasons! Surely not backwardness.Is the reason strategic or economic or geographical .Worth research !!
what is the connection among these countries? All these countries are heaven for crooks, operate banking system that encourage black money. oooppss. Damnn.. How did I include a 'holy place'!

Kerala has three international airports which account for a majority of the money coming into Air India, yet Congress government at the center do everything possible to make life miserable to Kerala travellers...like suddenly cutting the number of flights, discontinuing profitable flights from these airports, and diverting those planes to loss making routes favored by duffer aviation minister.

Is the poor state of KSRTC is also due to the congress government at the centre?
This is price Keralites have to pay for being dependant on other states for job,civil supplies etc etc.

they should for harrier type aircrafts which takes off from aircraft carrier.ony a short runway
Re: Re: Is it worthwhile to publish this except for GK?
by sam puzhakkal on Mar 19, 2013 01:15 AM
That works for tiny harriers with one pilot or two pilots in case of trainer version of harriers. That wont work for a huge passenger plane that weigh over 1000 times more than a tiny Harrier. Even harriers avoid vertical take off and landing unless absolutely necessary, because of the huge loss of fuel that vertical take off and landing calls for. Why do you think that catapult are used in modern aircraft carriers instead of vertical take off and landing?
