I think what sets Kohli apart, from any contemporary or past greats, is his obvious passion and hunger for runs. He is crazily good !!! What a player!

That's wonderful. But an advice if anyone would take it; if you really want to explore the beauty try staying away from the hotels and other outlets and instead visit and see the locals more. Take gifts for the locals and they will prepare you food out of hospitality (mean? eh!) but worth it...

The worst part of sectarian extremism is : all those doing it believe they are doing a service to God Much needed action.

Man I so hate it when someone rapes a beautiful piece of poetry. That is intellectual terrorism! :angry: Khudi ko ker buland itna k har taqdeer se pehlay......... Khuda banday se khud poochay, bata teri raza kya hai What classic piece of poetry On topic: I think this is part of diplomatic...

Now if you think I am new to Pakistan and the Pakistani style of politics (PTI no exception) then you can show me such candle holding pics :) My point actually was not at all about justifying actions of the protesters or that of Police. I emphasized solely on the point how a half picture can be...

Its not limited to one party. PTI also used that lady Seemabia aka Foji ki beti to score some political points. When the whole video emerged the lady was seen carrying a rock that she was threatening to hurl at the male policemen. And when the lady policewomen tried to stop her she wrestled with...

No - Pakistan is just trying to disprove India that they hold any supremacy over us

Government seriously lacks the cost-benefit analysis capability while deploying any new financial scheme. Through RE amendments they literally shot themselves in the feet, as well as the economy.

..and that too after they had a ban in place on Chinese crackers? I think Delhi needs more tree plantation campaigns right away!

Seems like it. You mess up with psyche of the players and they lose their focus.

We are happy with staying reactive and monitoring their activities silently until the need for blowing up their cover arises due to 'proactive' India

No changes I bet. We are corrupt to the clerk level and expect a change at the Top. Bloody optimists.
