Pardon to Ajmal KasabBy: V.Shanmuganathan | Friday , 9 Jan '09 10:40:39 AM Reply | Forward The family members of the slain police Officer Karkare have no business to offer pardon to the terrorist Ajmal.More than their family, India and Indians were affected.In my view the terrorist Ajmal should be given with the death sentence after he is identified by the world that he is Paksitani.

Bal ThakreyBy: C.K.Nandy | Friday , 9 Jan '09 10:31:23 AM Reply | Forward I strongly belive that this high time when Syt BALSAHEB should retire from entire public and political life. His statement is like "Sathiya gaya", When their was practically fight between Police / Army with Terrorists, where were Blasaheb's Sena gone. they could not come forward to sacrifice life. instead Balsaheb iscoment unwanted words for thoes who scrifice his life already. Further as far as set free for the terrorist who spolt life of others should not be let off on “humanitarian grounds”. Govt Should put them Behind the BAR for 21 years.

Kasab should be hanged immediateyBy: Sumayu | Friday , 9 Jan '09 8:57:26 AM Reply | Forward I wuld definitely support Bal Thackeray on this one although I am not a big fan of his. Kasab should be put to death and has no right to live. He has robbed over 60 families of their joys foreever. The days of being a Gandhi are over. These terrorists do not understand the language of compassion and forgivenness. They should be paid in their own coin, a tit for tat. This will be the only deterrent from further attacks. Else innocents will continue to die.

Someone take care of this poor manBy: Jayadevan | Friday , 9 Jan '09 7:46:16 AM Reply | Forward Will Bal Thackeray shut up please? He has suffered no loss, never made a sacrifice in his life, is scared to even stir out of Mumbai and all he has to his credit is an empire of loot, a history of having bankrupted the richest municipal corporation in India in one term of rule, the blood of countless innocents on his hands. Senile dementia is all right, but when the patient starts flinging excreta around, it is time for restraints.

Political ambitionBy: Gopal | Friday , 9 Jan '09 5:41:46 AM Reply | Forward Kavita Karkare should avoid being in media limelight. Does this speaks her of a political embition? Is she joining CPM? I was surprised to know this family has leaning towards communists as Mr Karkkare was the son of a leftist trade union AITUC Aleader.

CommunistBy: Jayadevan | Saturday , 10 Jan '09 11:33:34 AM Reply | Forward You say Communist as if it was a bad word. It is a fact that the Communist Party has been just like any other party in India, corrupted by power. But, remember, most of the privileges the middle class has now, even the better conditions of the labourers are because of the Communists' hard work. There is a rule that once you have benefitted from a change, you become a staunch conservative. I am not a Communist myself, but credit has to be given where it is needed to be given. Your great national icon Bhagat Singh was a Communist, remember? Remember that the Communists were the only political party to launch an armed insurrection in India before Independence? No, you people have all forgotten your concern for your fellow men and grown up on the get-rich quick mantra that has given you Enron and the recessions and Maddox and now Satyam. Enjoy yourself!

disbandBy: Ganesh | Monday , 12 Jan '09 20:42:37 PM Reply | Forward As you say,if the commies have achieved their objective and have become irrelevant now, why cant they disband themselves and save democracy.It will be in the interest of the nation.

SolutionBy: INDIAN | Friday , 9 Jan '09 2:31:47 AM Reply | Forward Bring Kasab to Thakere and he will solve the problem.

respect OpinionBy: Kunal | Friday , 9 Jan '09 0:05:35 AM Reply | Forward Every Individual has its own opinion, better we respect views of individual , even we may differ from it .

bal thackery greedy dogBy: prahalad | Thursday , 8 Jan '09 23:30:56 PM Reply | Forward so..per bal's own logic, he needs to be bent down and reared up, then spiced up and finally hanged for the murders of innocents in mbai. God knows how many lives have gone due this monkey's greed. Kasab was here to die. No point doing what he already wanted.He should be asked to sell his family property and fund the victims.also do community service in old age homes.. Washing the excrements etc .Who is bal thackery to try for public support by playing with emotions during times like this prompting ppl intorash actions with disatrous consequences

Thackeray By: Hemant | Thursday , 8 Jan '09 22:46:08 PM Reply | Forward Isn't her daughter in London. She must know more about terror. Her idea is good but sadly it does not work. Kasab did not kill by accident and after getting caught he told he has no regret. Let him be tried under law, for upholding the same her husband gave his life. All guys here, even if you do not agree with Karkare's wife do not go personal on her. She has all the right and more than all of us will ever have to put forward her views.As far as Thackeray goes, he has lived enough and lived out his utility, so get away and keep off.Hemant.

reactions to mrs karkares statementBy: harun | Thursday , 8 Jan '09 21:29:36 PM Reply | Forward i cant beleive it.Reading the views on the web it goes to show that the Indian society is so polarised to the exasperating extent that a martyr and his family are bieng maligned for expressing their views.LET me tell you that i do not subscribe to the views expressed by Mr karkares daughter on kasab,he deserves to be hanged without trial.but thakreys has no business to seek it.What ws he doing when Sarpotdar was accused in crimes during mumbai Riots.Just keep OFF.I did see a interview were Mrs kavita karkare did say that her husband had valid proof working on Malegaon Blasts.Lets allow a probe o be free and fair.How is that one cannot accept a HINDU bieng accused of terrorism and indulge in getting personal with karkares family.Law is same for all.DOES that mean any investigation against the majority is anti National.Then we have failed as democracy.Some of the attacks made on his family so the sick mindset.All those nationalist must send their kids to the army.
