Sir you are a senior member here. Surely you are aware the the Congress has butchered far more people than Modi is alleged to have harmed, even by his most rabid critics?

Not comparable. MMS personally allowed his party men to loot in the coal scam. That was his own ministry. As far as other ministries are concerned nobody who wants to loot gives a damn what MMS thinks anyway.

He does as he is told and doesn't take a share of the loot. That is his greatest asset.

Will not happen. The CBI is controlled by the Congress and the Courts have been careful not to appoint an SIT, like they did in the Gujarat riots case. But Tytler may get a slap on the wrist if the Congress decides to make him a fall guy to exculpate itself.

Well the cop that is trying to implicate Modi is himself involved in cases of torture and of falsely planting drugs on innocent people. His wife was contesting as a candidate of the Congress party against Modi. So his credibility is very low. As regards the SIT closure report - yes, it is a...

Yes, there are various media outlets that are trying to put their own spin. But this is the final investigative report - Full text: SIT closure report on Gujarat riots

News outlets are not a substitute for serious, independent professional investigations. Look up the report of the Special Investigative Team appointed by the Supreme Court of India.

"Following the Godhra Massacre" means during the riots. The riots happened as a reaction to the massacre.

Sigh ... These allegations have been investigated in excruciating detail by completely independent agencies. Try to read the studies I pointed to a few posts back.

I guess it is good the article was not written by an Indian, because these are the kind of statements make one cringe. The Brits murdered so many Indians that it makes Hitler and Stalin look like boy scouts. As regards the Indian rulers that survived until modern times, some were good (e.g...

See, the flaw with your thinking is that Jews were not voting for Hitler 10 years after he came to power. Whereas a substantial number of Muslims are voting for Modi today. You need to engage with voices like Madhu Kishwar. You have also not explained why politicians like Rajiv Gandhi, who have...

Let us grant that you may be a well meaning individual. Google "MODINAMA", a series of articles by Madhu Kishwar on the Manushi website. It is a series, and 5 articles have been posted so far.

Actually Buddhism was once widespread in Central Asia. Even now there is a Republic of the Russian Federation, Kalmykia, which is Buddhist.

Sindhi, Punjabi and Urdu are based on Sanskrit, like many North Indian languages, and Nepali and Bengali. Pashto is in a different category. That is a fact.

A more fundamental question is what humans want from life. If "religion" helps achieve that, then, and only then, does it have any relevance. (The Sabbath was made for man and all that ...)

Our politicians have their own life cycle. They must visit the finest resorts around the world and enjoy the best prostitutes, spas and cuisine that money can buy. Why should not Congress leaders be given their life cycle costs?

Hmm ... a Korean missionary. My sympathies and apologies to her for her unpleasant experience. I would suggest that while she is in Kolkata, she should visit the Ramakrishna Mission at Belur Math, so that she can learn more about Dharma and authentic Bengali and Indic culture.

The OP is a mix of facts and wild imagination. But since I was mentioned let me answer the specific points - Maybe to an extent. But one can't make any blanket statement like that. No defense factories, but there is technical collaboration - for example the MR-SAM deal. Most of the...

^^^ You are misguided, you should find out more about how Bhindranwale was created - Bole so Nihaal ...

Dissing Punjab? Where did that come from? Punjab is as much home as any other part of India. The Rig Veda has many books and some were indeed written in Punjab, but the Saraswati river passed through present-day Haryana and Rajasthan. Anyway, let's not get sidetracked. What Bhindrawale did...
