Jan Lokpall bill Mass hysteria

Posted on 26 Aug 2011 at 11:34am

Welcome to the chaos promoted by news channels.Like every other Indian, I was glad too when I heard about this movement, Anna and the Janlok Pal Bill the first time. I did support the cause but as things progressed and I looked into details the mass hysteria just doesn’t make sense to me. With all due respects to Anna, your methods are undemocratic! We know the current government’s sad state and we want solutions and not a new road to chaos. We want to remove corruption and not “remove the current corrupt so that new ones can take on the reins of corruption”. Creating a super power in one…

Anna Hazare, Who is Anna Hazare?

I m not against Anna, and the Bill. But can’t we have this in phases and then let it get implemented first and then fight for ammendments…..I think getting things moved further is better than they just do not move at all.

People call it Second Freedom and I call it a Hunger of NAME, and being second Gandhi….All drama, no one is actually thinking of India. We have 1.3 Billion people and corruption is part of all nations. And  a Bill alone can not decide the fate for India’s future. I really hate the idea of EGO and adamant attitude of ANNA which is sure promoted by some egoist…

Pakistan is now accused of holding back on going after Taliban headquarters in North Waziristan because of fear that the Taliban would unleash a large number of terror attacks that would cause a political crises that would bring down the government. Such violence has killed nearly 4,000 people in the last three years, since the government launched its offensive against Islamic terrorists. The first such attack was against the Red Mosque in Islamabad (the capital), to root out radicals who threatened kidnappings and attacks in the capital. There’s also fear that more government cooperation with Islamic radical groups (like the Taliban, Lashkar-i-Taiba and Haqqani network), as part of official,…

Why some fear China and India are on the road to war

Indai Shhoul fear from Chine for defence budegt: While India’s defence budget for fiscal 2008-09 has been hiked by only five per cent in real terms to Rs 105,000 crore ($26.4 billion), China’s People’s Liberation Army has been given a 17.6 per cent increase in planned defence expenditure to Yuan 417.77 billion (58.79 billion). China’s defence expenditure has grown at between 12 and 15 per cent annually in real terms over the last decade. Chinese analysts have sought to pass off the rather steep hike in the defence outlay as having been “caused by the sharp increase in the wages, living expenses and pensions of 2.3 million-strong PLA…
