**229 Indians in the successful higgs boson hadron team.The experiment reportedely the most expensive and extraordinary that physics has ever seen. 229 members in a global 6005 team is a matter of pride for India.
**29 Indians participated in curiosity mars lander project. The project co-ordinator is an indian origin person and 12 Indian members were there in the highly sophisticates soil analysis software team. Indeed a matter of pride for India.
**Those who are not interested in science and technology, those who do not have patience for the same, do not be in a hurry and be disappointed. 9 out of top 25 hotels in UAE are run by indians with hot sambar vadai, hot rasam vadai and curd vada consistently topping popularity charts.Two of them won top customer service award back-to-back and their names were featured in local magazines. Given that a good majority of the above mentioned 9 were run by expat migrants from south india who had been poor and left shores with small amount of money but came upo due to sincere and honest work. This is also a matter of pride .
But sadly while at home we are being forced to be unquestioning slaves of corrupt politicians and their chelas and that ruins our lives more than anything else.

what we need is to launch nuclear weapons on neighbouring countries and then send all the crazies to the wastelands.
there is this whole lot of people in our society who call themselves intellectual, powerful and govern this country as if it is a dictatorship and have become so much insensitive that they do not care for the common man and there feelings. There was a time when the corrupt would resign on moral grounds and face charges but today no one cares.......everyone knows that the case would be in news for only one or two weeks and people would forget.
Our leaders are governing India from British rule laws, they have not updated/reformed to suit todays requirement, one can see this everywhere in all walks of life viz. if you need a character certificate from DM, process is apply in DMs office, he will mark to SP, SP to Kotwali, Kotwali to Choki, and in turn Choki to DMs office, whole process will take one year, if you go on gressing palm-spend Rs.500 to Rs.1000, you may get it in 3-5 days. OK IInd example, we gave notices for road repair to all authorities, with no reply for one year, we told them to do demonstration about 21 days in advance, no one talked to us, everyone was busy to know, how many people will gather, how much Police will be required, when Tear gas or Lathi will be charged, how many ambulance required etc.,etc., no one was interested to defuse the situation in 21 days, no talks-nothing, when demonstration took place, persons mentioned as officer bearers were booked under many IPC sections, and from the last 3 years, attending court. This is our governance of free India.
