Rahuls remarks

Calling the Saffron linked terror dangerous is obviously correct. But calling it more dangerous than the LeT, Al-Qaida etc is absolutely out of perspective. Can the numbers on record in terms of incidents, casualties, spread, etc explain Rahul Ji’s assertion? Calling a spade a spade is courageous but calling a spade more dangerous than an AK-47 should have other motives. Pakistan is already using the Sachar committee report to imply that the 26/11 could have local muslim support. With such comments by Rahul baba, all the efforts of India in tackling the various terror groups will be diluted.

Scams and new meanings

UPA II is giving new meanings to many things. Scheme should be understood as scheming against people. A Prime Ministerial govt no longer has the PM as the centre piece. Cabinet responsibility does not mean sinking or sailing together. It’s alright to have an allegedly corrupt officer as CVC. Portfolio allocation includes the influence of the rich and famous. And finally, ‘the buck stops here’, might mean that the money filled bags stop at his/her table.

Bihar verdict

Democracy is not a destination, it’s a journey. In India, Democracy is a churning in which many undesirable elements emerge before the nectar. This was proved in the Bihar elections. There was a phase when the caste groups supported only their candidates. The fact that the top post was occupied by their caste man kept people happy. But after that, people wanted more than caste politics. They want development to be done beyond just caste representation. Lalu could not pass the second phase.

26/11...two years

26/11: two years passed without Kasab being hanged. How ridiculous! India is unhappy that Pak is not doing enough to bring the perpetrators to justice. India should first hang Kasab before lecturing any other nation. It’s unfortunate that substantial human rights are being extended to the enemy of the state whereas for the common man, no human right is guaranteed.
