Where is Pakistan?
by Shabuddin Kamal on Jan 16, 2011 12:17 PM  | Hide replies

Pakistan is a fading country which is barely breathing as it is being throttled by the zeolots. What India should be worring about the fallout of a failed state with nuclear weapons. There is no pak left in Pakistan. Any time with in a decade atmost it is going to spin out of control. So who will move in? It is most like likely China will move in. But India shoulkd be ready to take control of it. Most likely the punjab provice will be willing to merge with India. The tribal belt will be with Afgan if they are strong. The rest will be controlled by UN with China being major player. There is no future for Kashmir on its own in such eventuality but be with India.

Nearly four lakh Kashmiri Pandits were hounded out of their homes due to this turmoil and thousands were killed. Some put the present figure of the number of exiled Kashmiri Pandits at 7.5 lakh. No commission or probe has focused on ethnic cleansing and the genocide of minority Pandits, which led to their exodus from the valley. Moreover, the persecutors are roaming free in Kashmir.

Rising anger, growing warnings
Manmohan Singh's popularity is marginally down and Sonia Gandhi's steeply down, according to a new opinion poll (India Today). Yet, the Congress is considered better than other parties in handling the country's problems. Generally optimism prevails, especially among the young. APJ Abdul Kalam is their role model and their faith in India's growing economic strength is abiding.

(Not that opinion polls are definitive. This one for example ranks Rahul Gandhi as best qualified to be Prime Minister. Best “qualified”? Even Kanimozhi does not believe that M.K. Stalin is best qualified to be the next Tamil Nadu Chief Minister. Nevertheless, two-thirds of Lok Sabha MPs below 40 are “qualified” by heredity. In politics these days DNA is the best qualification).

Of course a vibrant, young population is India's best guarantee for the future. In the short-term, however, they are at the mercy of the crooked old population of political manipulators. So the question is: How long will be the short term? Indications are not encouraging because none of the manipulators in power today show any sign of giving up their deceitful, foxy ways.

No One Killed Jessica is an apt message of our times. If anybody missed the message, there is a stronger one to wake them up: No One Killed Aarushi. An MLA in Uttar Pradesh raped a girl – and promptly the girl was put in jail. Public outrage final

Eventually the police may prove that it was the girl who raped the MLA. And UP is ruled by a woman Chief Minister.

People are in no position to react immediately to such perversions by the ruling class. But people get angry. There is a great deal of public anger in India today. The Kalmadis, the Sharad Pawars, the Quattrochis, the Yeddyurappas, the A. Rajas are adding fuel to the fire of this anger. Someone should pause to think what would happen if the collective anger of a people is allowed to build up to bursting point.

In fact, many are already flashing warning signals. Ashok Mitra, West Bengal's veteran Marxist, recently wrote: “Discontent is going up as disparity between rich and poor gets pronounced. Sooner or later this will get mobilised... and we will have an incendiary situation”.

Even if we say that the Marxist in Ashok Mitra is exaggerating, what about Devadutt Pattanayak who is a vedic scholar and mythologist? As he sees it: “India's growth is dangerously unequal..... It is only a question of time before this leads to violent confrontations”.

Other voices, widely recognised as intellectual, competent and sober, tend to think along the same lines. Writing in Outlook recently, author Sunil Khilnani referred to “the ambiguities of coalition politics, a volatile Hindu nationalism and intense caste politics” to conclude that “there will be more crises and s

Editor R. Jagannathan cautioned that if politics are not made “consciously right,” then we will have to “face the consequences of social conflict”. Filmmaker Sudhir Misra warned: “The system will have to change its values or else the whole fabric will be rent”.

Foreign voices are strident. For all the admiration India has won from Western investors, the public criticism in Western media is unsparing. In a popular prime-time television discussion in Germany, a panelist quoted from a blog: “If all the scams of the last five years are added up, they are likely to exceed the British colonial loot of India of about a trillion dollars”.

A German business daily editorialised that “India is becoming a Banana Republic instead of an economic superpower”. A French newspaper article mentioned the name of Hassan Ali of Pune and his wife as operating a one-billion-dollar illegal Swiss account with “sanction of the Indian regime”.

How harmful can a country's reputation get. How dangerous can a country's internal contradictions get. Must India collapse in order to rise again?

For every Action there is reaction.

Look at Pakistan now. They were sending terrorists to Kashmir to make it unstable, bombing several places to hit our economy. The reaction is such that Americans sending drones to bomb Pakistan, terrorists killing their own people. Whatever injustice Pakistan had done Bharath, the same is being done to them. This is natures law.

Whats indian govt gonna do ?
by manoj kumar on Jan 16, 2011 06:09 AM

Indian govt don't have a magic power. they can deliver whatever kashmiri wants. there are so many stats in india poor. what can you do ?
money does not grow on tree. tax money has to be used firstly give resourses to states or city that are growing. rest of money can be allotted to poor states.
Kashmiri have to understand that its era of privatisation. you be good consumers, have job skills and growth will come your way. its simple. whats govt gonna do.
Kashmiri have to realise that their interest is in living peacefully with india. dont listen to pak and china. they will tear you into pieces then grab your neck, a lot quicker than you can imagine. india is respected world over for its thousands years old peacefull attitude. you will be proud to call yourself indian. always.

Such irresponsible talks do raise fingers against India's role in Kashmir problem created by Pakistan. The reality is different. As long as Pakistan continues with the hidden agenda of vexation of Kashmir, there cannot be a solution. The wars will be fought and peace talks will take place, without any purposeful result; until either Pakistan getting Kashmir as part of its state or else Pakistan;s backbone is broken in a doggedly fought war Or India and Pakistan becoming one State, as was the pre-Independent India! These people finding faults with India should admit the reality!

is a clueless diplomat, and she should stay away from such matters. Can she convince US military to withdraw from DMZ in Korea? Why can't she go and negotiate with North Koreans?

Useless diplomats- these people are worthless idiots who could not make it in science- and become big mouth talkers/.
