Finally, separatists met with Pakistani Envoy to Delhi in spite of strict warning from Union Government. Separatists led by Syed Geelani, a senior leader of the 26-party Hurriyat Conference, and Ex Millitant JKLFchief Yasin Malik met Pakistani high commissioner to India Abdul Basit. One thing wonders me, all of a sudden black clouds started hovering around Indian attempts to have amicable relations with Pakistan. Why? Let us check out the events one by one : Ceasefire Violations : All of a sudden there is unprecedented surge in cease-fire violations. According to reports*1 , at least 10 ceasefire violations have been committed by Pakistan troops in August itself. In normal times, it is done to push or give cover fire to militants trying entering Indian soil. But according to current situation, its target was to escalate tension between two countries to derail bilateral talks. Meeting Separatists : Every now and then Yasin Malik, Ex-Milltant & JKLF Chief goes to P

Ministry of Foreign Affairs often calls for  talks with Pakistan & China. This isbhow I see India's position in Bi-Party Talks:

"Mr. A to Mr. B, "you know, my neighbors house is on fire". Mr. B asked with curiosity, "ohh sad, then what you did"? Mr.A winked, calmly replied," i brought the same fire to my house and set it on fire as well and one thing more, this fire is all set to burn your house also Mr.A ". What happened in Mumbai this evening is brazen example of such fanatic behavior where a so called Peaceful protest was planned and project against killings of Muslims in Burma and Assam. The protest was led by Raza Academy, an organisation working to promote Islamic culture but is this part of their promotion of culture? Do their culture includes acts to burn, to ransack, to vandalize....??? Now in the entire world, there is one community, people don't trust, people are afraid of, people are suspicious of.......... undoubtedly this is ISLAM. I wonder why Islam is cornered in the world? Why is this great faith is termed the most violent and n

I was reading a book yesterday which talked about nationalism and its consequences. The 300 page book is well written and poses questions beyong imagination for a thinker. I am one of those thinkers who believe in rationalism. I wish to get into the groove of the matter which makes me to do some homework all the time. Tiring though  When we talk of nationalism, then I must say it has powers beyond imagination. It can change a common man into Adolf Hitler, a thinker like Bhagat Singh into an armed activist, Mohan das Gandhi into Mahatma. There are hundreds of examples which has its positives and negatives but one thing is common in all of them, NATIONALISM.. Amazingly denegraded, unnoticed power of all time, this has turned Germany into Phoenix, United States into the most powerful state of the world, Japan into fearsome fighter nation and India into one nation (after having history of a divided states, 100 of them fighting for pity awkward self esteem). When I talk about a natio

News came in the early morning on a news channel that Osama Bin Laden was found & killed at some place in Pakistan. I was shocked with the news, that how come a person like Osama can be killed. So here is my analysis of the truth behind curtains: I used three spects to look at the proceedings. 1. Pakistan : A nation which terms itself as victim of terrorism, an ally of US, staunch supporter of counter terrorism operations in Afganistan and by virtue of it, it earns millions of dollars as free ball from US, a full range of battle ready equipments, explosives, technologies from the bosses sitting in white house. But inadvertently, against all claims illustrated earlier in the above para, Pakistan has earned the status of Safe Heaven for the millitants, terrorist, extemists from all over the world. Pakistan because of its strategic position which gives it neighbours like Iran in west, afganistan in north n arabian sea in the south-west makes itself as an impeccable need for Unit

"Paani ko taraste............" the title song in the movie Well Done Abba says it all... when you are thirsty, you understand the value of water the most.. today i saw this movie n finally said "well done Boman" certainly you are the most versatile actor in the industry in current times. now lets come to point...blank!!! Yesterday, Ganga ghat of holy city of Varanasi was shattered by an IED blast in the morning at 6:30 hrs. IED means Improvised Exlposive Device, an improved explosive which was heard in German Bakery blast case in past year. Does this means this was a terror attack?? may be yes, may be no!! But one thing for sure, the security lapses are the only big reason behind the attack... & the aftermath, blame game is on again like every incidence that takes place here. Mr.Chidambaram said something. Ms.Mayavati retaliated in her typical style. phewww........what an excuse by the secretary of state, that the warnings provided b
