Not trying to drag the argument longer than necessary, but you know as well as me that saplings need a lot more than just one good monsoon season to grow into trees/forests. Besides, the run off will make sure that the weak saplings are washed away unless ground is prepared beforehand to prevent...

Planting 10 million saplings themselves is not wrong, but the areas that will be selected for afforestation typically and invariably suffer from drought like conditions and face the problems of soil erosion. And if no measures are taken beforehand, the saplings will soon wither away in the sun...

True. As far as I can tell, Modi tried to keep the opposition in good humor for the last 2 years atleast when the parliament was in session in hopes of getting their support to pass his reform agenda and what did he get in return? Zilch! In fact, it was the corrupt scam-ridden leaders of...

While I agree with the idea of afforestation and nobody has more details about the proposed plan to make a definitive statement, I think the priorities are a little messed up. The first priority should not be afforestation at all but to prepare the ground by stopping soil erosion brought on by...

Only @Mr.Nair can confirm but it looks like a resort near Munnar, Kerala or Ooty, Tamil Nadu.

Lol, how does it matter whether China interferes directly or indirectly? Would it make it fine if China was putting a friendly face and stabbing you in the back? And where did I even claim that China only interfere directly? The dude that I quoted, was claiming that China was "more...

Nobody gave India cryogenic technology! One of the reasons why India doesn't have a functioning cryogenic technology even today and still relies on the French for all their heavy lifting needs! Russia was supposed to give the technology to India, but backed out at the last minute owing to US...

CHINA HELPED PAKISTAN BLOCK INDIA's nsg membership bid: Aziz :tup:

Your whole premise that China hasn't interfered in Indian affairs in rather questionable. Secondly, the Chinese have propped up Pakistan specifically to do their dirty work, so then why do they even need to interfere directly? Moreover, isn't vetoing the UN resolutions by China against the LeT...

The Chinese companies, like every other multi-national company, are there in India for profits and growth. Not to strengthen India nor to weaken it! The companies world over, will chase it wherever they see opportunities to make money (barring sanctions - a la US style!).

When you prop the despotic regimes that are arch rivals to India (and other countries), provide them with not just nuclear weapons but also missiles to deliver, that's pious? Or when you veto down any UN resolutions against even the terrorist groups and their handlers that specifically target...

I agree! It is commendable that the couple didn't exploit the land for farming or just another coffee plantation, but to claim to turn a barren land into rain forest in a couple of decades is stretching the truth! Coorg epitomizes the best and the most fertile land that Karnataka has to offer...

What Pakistan needs to do instead, is to close down the terrorist groups and put their leaders behind bars. Not act as a PR agency for the terrorists by simply issuing a blanket warning of an impending attack on their behalf! Amazing how Pakistan is allowed to get away with sheltering the...

Or funding and laying ground work for a bigger and badder "MUMBAI" ! Either way, $5B it too large an amount for a poorer country (in relative terms) to be sending to its self-declared arch-enemy! I can only hope that the GoI seriously investigates this matter to its logical conclusion!

So, you think GK Pillai is lying? What kind of proof were you looking for, anyway? Is it your words against those of a former National Security Adviser? Alright! I don't mean to question your loyalties (nor do I have any right), but I am curious to know why you would support her even when...

Sending terrorists in bunches one after another into India, to kill or maim, is not a mere misunderstanding, mate! Why is this romantic and sentimental attachment of Asian countries uniting? Unite against who? If you say western world, there's almost nothing homogenous about US and Europe...

Mate, you must be assuming that China also really intends to sort out its border problems with India! The real problem with China, when it comes to India, is not geographical but economical. The last thing China wants is a stable and economically stronger India that will inevitably compete for...

From what I understood, I think he was only checking if you are still working in his state now or not. Not if you were illegal. Chinese don't even need to enter India illegally for a job.

Forget Modi or prime ministership, Rahul Gandhi will not make a good village panchayat president! The dude is frankly not made of the material necessary for any administrative post that requires a little more than eating in a Dalit's house or reading catch phrases from a smart phone. But deep...

Yup! We should grab any manufacturing with both hands. If there is one comparative advantage that India holds over China, that is Western companies (and Russian, in this case) tend to trust Indian system more to protect their Intellectual Properties than China. This, if India play her cards...
