Hindu terror??? Just tell me how many cases of Muslim terror have been solved till date? What happened to the Delhi High Court case? What happened to so many others? Under media pressure, they catch some guys who are acquitted by the courts for lack of evidence. Why are they so worried about...

Philippines needs to retake the southern provinces ASAP. Lots of Islamic terrorists there who are basically kidnapping, extorting, running drugs and murdering people.

Excellent response. Thank you.

OK, since when have Army officers started deciding the direction of the foreign policy? That too junior/mid level officers and surprisingly, even retired officers? I am not commenting on the nature or correctness or otherwise of the BD foreign policy but simply stating that these officers have...

No. I think this particular advert is for the female entry only. There would be separate entries for men too at different times of the year. You would also find adverts for entry of cooks, carpenters, mess waiters and other tradesmen into the Army. That does not mean that the Army takes only...

There is no slugfest anywhere except in the minds of these charlies who write such articles and the ones posting them here as a part of their daily morning anti-Indian breakfast cereal diet. I don't lose sleep if Brazil overtakes us or if Indonesia becomes the 'I' of the BRICS. Neither do I know...

The second largest economy, China also receives foreign aid. In fact the largest donor of foreign aid to China is Japan. Japan gives in excess of 1 billion dollars to China. Some of our NGOs do a sterling job and supplement the governmental efforts in development work. If the rich countries...

Yes, you are correct, but the primary reason for the failure of all this combined naval effort is the total lack of political will to resolve the piracy issue by the governments that send these very same navies. India finds it difficult to pay for the oil it buys from Iran as do most other...

Really? Then why doesn't our government tell GB to kindly discontinue the aid? Or are we reluctantly accepting the aid we don't need only to keep the British happy? One of the main thrust areas of the British aid to India is in the area of primary education. Surely that is one area in which we...

Not just TOI, most journalists in India are sensationalist a@@holes. Even a kid with basic knowledge of geography knows that Seychelles is the best offshore location to keep an eye on the Somalian coastline. Therefore, anyone with an interest in the Somalian coastline in particular or western...

Why is this such a big issue? After all Putin is a politician who has recently faced substantial dissent and large scale protests on his home turf. If he has asked for more time to set his house in order before meeting a future head of state, I don't think he is asking for too much. I am sure...

OK thanks.

Why the hell did they have to kill these women for God's sake? Were the sister and niece involved in political or secessionist activities? This sounds like a mob killing but mobs generally avoid targeting families as all families are vulnerable. Sad.

So we agree to disagree, right? Only don't classify me as anti British because I am not necessarily one. I was just looking for a long term peaceful solution. Britain has spilt blood over almost half the world, not always its own, but that is history.

I totally agree with SuperKaif's post #28. Britain should initiate the process of gradually handing back the island to Argentina within a fixed number of years. These claims of Argentina over ownership of the Falklands will not go away. Right or wrong, the Falklands are an emotive issue with the...

You are right, the ancient Hindu scriptures called Vedas which were written around 4000 years ago in Sanskrit stated "Char Ved Char Varna". Meaning, there are four Vedas and four Varnas. Varnas are the four orthodox castes designed to ensure division of labour and hence functional efficiency in...

A very balanced post, accurately describing matters pertaining to Sri Lanka as they exist. There is undoubtedly an anti Chinese phobia in a section of our media but that is not entirely without reason. Some of the actions carried out by China can not be termed as friendly even by the most...

My Alma Mater. St Mary's High School, Mt Abu.

Yes it has been very slow to open since this morning.

Yes, no government will act so childishly. The toy company is undoubtedly promoting itself by riding the wave of nationalism.
