Except a public "shouchaalaya", all other places and schemes in India are named after Nehru-Gandhi. Fed up with them.

The Guardian is going crazy these days looking at the Modi fervour. This is nth article in recent times. Read the opening statement and it stinks with that ultra-superiority complex of being "white". $h!t

Can these MOFO's dare to question bush in his tenure ?

Dear Fellow-Indians,

The best thing about our country is its cultural diversity, its pluralism - the co-existence of a number of religions and ethnicities over centuries, and hence the blooming of multiple streams of intellectual and artistic thought. And, this has been possible only because Indian society has prided itself on being essentially secular in character, rejecting communal hatred, embracing tolerance.

Today, that very sense of India is vulnerable. The need of the hour is to protect our country's secular foundation. Undoubtedly, corruption and governance are important issues, but we will have to vigilantly work out ways of holding our government accountable to that. However, one thing is clear: India's secular character is not negotiable! Not now, not ever.

As Indian citizens who love our motherland, we appeal to you to vote for the secular party, which is most likely to win in your constituency.
Jai Hind!

Yours

16may ke baad separate electorate ki maang na karden 'intellectuals'

 

[somnath]

Baramulla, Jammu and Kashmir: Union minister Farooq Abdullah today claimed that the BJP's prime ministerial candidateNarendra Modiwants to "eliminate" Muslims. He also said he was confident that the Congress will not allow Mr Modi to succeed in his designs.

"I do not fear Modi but his intentions, which he has for India. He wants to eliminate Muslims if you want to hear the truth," Mr Abdullah, who is the president of ruling National Conference in J&K, told reporters in Baramulla, about 55 km from Srinagar. (Full Coverage: India Votes 2014)

"He (Modi) wants to play communal politics and is taking the country towards communalism", Mr Abdullah said.

He, however, said that the Congress is steadfast to fight him. Mr Abdullah, who is seeking re-election from the Srinagar Lok Sabha seat, said the state government was committed to revoking the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) and asked Pakistan to stop pushing militants into the state.

"The government is committed that AFSPA has to be removed from the areas where it is not needed. There is no difficulty about that," he said, adding "I hope our friends in Pakistan would stop sending militants then probably AFSPA would go completely."

Meanwhile, Jammu and Kashmir Congress President Saif-ud-din Soz criticised the Election Commission (EC) for its failure to take action against Mr Modi for his spendings on election campaign through media houses in the country.

"The EC has to think and see how much money does Modi have. There is a charge on him as a few days back there was a media report that he has spentRs.5,000 crore on media. He (Modi) is given a huge space on television channels, why isn't Advani or Rahul Gandhi or even Sonia Gandhi not given such a coverage? That is why EC has to think about it. The EC is not above law. That is my point," Mr Soz said.

The state Congress president also denied the inclusion of a demand for Union Territory Status to frontier Ladakh region saying "it is not the manifesto of Congress but a local demand."

"It (demand for Union Territory Status) is a local issue and not of the whole state. The hill council (Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council) that has demanded it and we have not said no but if it would have been achievable, then it would have been done. We do not know if that is achievable or not but it is not the manifesto of Congress," Mr Soz said.

Mr Abdullah and Mr Soz were in Baramulla to accompany the joint candidate Sharief-ud-din Shariq who filed his nomination papers today.

Mr Shariq, a senior National Conference leader and sitting MP, is contesting from Baramulla Lok Sabha seat which is going to polls in the last phase of the five-phased elections in the state on May 7.
