    As they say in Kerala, there's more to life than GDP - The Globe and Mail

    So in 1936 when the Temple Entrance Proclamation was done it was basically done as the need of the hour rather than as a steping stone to total independence as you stated earlier or is that the Dewan was a visionary who foretold WW2, the decline of Britian, the Royal Indian Navy Mutiny and...

    I have no idea about that. May be you can throw some light on this matter. You are talking about the late 19th century and to be fair the whole of India at that time was no better either, and The Temple Entrance Proclamation was done in 1930s and frankly Communists played no part in this. It...

    Is Afghanistan really impossible to conquer?

    In war sh*t happens but all said and done, American intervention in Afghanisthan costed much less lives on both sides of the conflict when compared to the Soviet one ....One cannot deny that. I saw a documentary of Afghan War of 1980s, in which the Soviet tactics was explained. The Mi- Hinds...

    Sri Lanka Economy Shines as India and Pakistan Lag

    And that was their greatest downfall. That stupid Pabhakaran thought he could take on a conventional army head on and win after some successes with conventional tactics....but after SLA rearmed and retrained it was game over for LTTE.
