Politics of divisionBy: Arvind Shukla | Sunday , 23 Nov '08 21:23:08 PM Reply | Forward Caste and Religious divisions have always been exploited by politicians. Recently, politics of regionalism was played in Maharashtra and PM and State govt. (both congress party) were mute spectator and participant while innocent people were lynched.Nations always live in hearts of men and women. Acts of divisive politics make people wonder whether they belong to this nation where they could be lynched because of region, religion or caste. Many suspected that Congress didn't intervene in Maharashtra because it could curtail Sena's power. Mr. Singh, PM, expressed his inablity to do anything. Mr. Advani, Opposition Leader, had nothing to say. These men have no vision of India which could compel them to either say consoling words or protect innocent citizens. It is then I realized that these men will as gladly scarifice me, a Bihari/HIndu as an innocent Muslim. My gut hurts now when I hear any BJP/Congress leader start talking about India as one nation as if they care.

illegtimate and ignoramusBy: romesh.sharma | Sunday , 23 Nov '08 21:09:49 PM Reply | Forward What does she know about Nation's major challenge and the Danger.Thes both are within Congress and its allies,UPA.Today every sane person knows that Congress had been working only with this policy exploiting people in the name of castes,poverty and illitracy.People have realized which and what is dangerous to the Nation and Sonia herself is one dangerous element working for the interests of the West.Congress' days are counted for and now people will take the Nation's politics and policies in own hands.Let her be sure it will be congress guyswho won't be able to escape anymore.Of course there is Islamic terrorism which is sponsored by foreign countries like Pak,BDesh and other Islamic nations from where the funds come from.Indian muslims weren't so but Congress with its appeasements have encouraged them to do so.Shame to all stalwart supporters of Congress who feel inferior to a person who has not spent even one quarter of her life in our country.Its disgusting

Divisive politics a major challenge for nation: SoniaBy: pairamblr | Sunday , 23 Nov '08 20:50:43 PM Reply | Forward It will be nice if Sonia Gandhi looks back as to who is responsible for the divisive politcs.Look back and you can see, how congress made Jairam Ramesh to move out from the Andhra Pradesh's request to help plan its development, by being a member of their planning commission or so. Look back and see how Congress behaved with George Fernadez, though he constitutionally occupied a position as Defence Minister, Look back and see how Congress supported the Jata and their blckade in Rajstan, Look back and see how congress could not say a word when Tamil Nadu declared blockade of trainsa amd triucks tp Kerala over the Selam Divisin, Look back and see how the Prime MInster found no time to discuss national issues with the Opposition leader Advani, while he had time for any number of breakfast and tea with Karat and CoEven now, has Sonia dn Congress got the courage to call for meetings, one to one with L.K.Advant to discuss the problem that India is facing and how to rectify it?

cong cannot ignore 80% Hindus for 15% muslims. It is bjp misleading HIndus by saying thisBy: real bharatiya | Sunday , 23 Nov '08 20:34:01 PM Reply | Forward Wise Hindus should u/stand that congress cannot ignore 80% HIndus for sake of 15% Muslims. It is not muslim apeasement but congress policy to keep all the parts of Indian society into mainstream. While bjp wants to keep the muslims isolated

Sarah Palin of IndiaBy: Indian | Sunday , 23 Nov '08 20:27:34 PM Reply | Forward It is not a good idea to throw stones sitting in a glass house! Than again, she is Sarah Palin of India. what could you expect from her or the Congress party whose platform is what they learned from the British - divide and conquer.

BJP and terrorismBy: Shankaran Nair | Sunday , 23 Nov '08 20:14:48 PM Reply | Forward The BJP has been fooling the public for a long time by raising Hindu instrument. Whenever there was a terrorist attack they blamed the government for noting action against terrorists. Now they are offering flowers to the terrorists and fully supporting Sadhvi and Purohit. It means that they are not against terrorists but against certain community and in the name of one religion they want to earn good name by attacking the other. However the government has taken a right step and now the BJP which is the main opposition party has no right to question the government stand on terrorism. The people should decide whether they support terrorist to form government. If they are encouraged they will not hesitate to elect a terrorist as PM or President.Also they owe an explanation because they have a PM in waiting and they are an all India organisation.

Divisive politics a major challenge for nation: SoniaBy: pairamblr | Tuesday , 2 Dec '08 20:29:06 PM Reply | Forward Very odd statement!All that BJP said about the sadhvi was that let the investigations go on and then you bring her to court. Let the law decide. They did not ask any one to be set free- as per my (mis)understanding.Re Purohit, more than BJP, the Defence institutions have complained that the ATS running commentary has damaged the great regard Indian Defence has had because of one individual. As per ATS, even some RSS leaders were to be killed because they are soft on BJP.which all means ATS should have waited for the investigations to be properly done and then come out with the case. However, here what we talk about is terrorism against India, not a community. And it is very odd on your part to call the opposition leader a terrorist - are you by any chance working as secretary to Lalu? May be he will give you a good increment or a job in railway?first we need to learn to consider every one as a human being, accept their right to differ, but the difference should be explained, educated, etc...not forced up on.we need to grow to maturity. Funny that our center had no time to discuss any issue with the opposition, while they had all the time to discuss issues with left - over breakfast,tea and what not!!!And we say we are all Indians!!we are only congress, bjp, communist etc...no Indians in India!!
