Salute to Hemand Karkare, Bharat need people like him.By: DHARAMNAL | Friday , 28 Nov '08 13:18:39 PM Reply | Forward All those writing against Hemant Karkare are cowards and they are lovers of Advan and BJP, because they accept terrorrism in some forms. For them, it is not ok if our own Hindu is caught for committing terrorism. The rascal terrorists are terrorists be it from any religion or caste.Hemant karkare was a man of principel, he arrived at the scene of crime, and he was killed. The BJP wanted to narco test this brave man and his brave officers just because his officers correctly also arrested terrorists from our own Hindu fold.Those who wrtie kick out Sonia etc. certainly do not know what they are talking about, these persons come from broken homes where a,b or c of democracy is like living in Somalia. These sorts of people should be by force given some education so that they do not discriminate others and create apartheid, or steal petrol pumps in India.

Pays with life for SONIA 's sins.By: manmohan naidu | Friday , 28 Nov '08 10:31:38 AM Reply | Forward Karkare may have been a good officer but he became a pawn in the hands of unscrupulous congress governmnt both at the center and at the state to invent fake evdence aganist nationalists and other hindus and hindu nationalist organisations. His sin was to lay his hands on the reverent hindu sants and sadhus, he paid for his sin ...other officers beware do not try to run down hindu nationalists all will meet with the same fate...Kick out Sonia Congress lock stock and barrel from this country if terrorism has to end in this country...

Politics?By: vb | Friday , 28 Nov '08 13:33:13 PM Reply | Forward You're such a loser Mr. Naidu. Instead of paying some respect to the dead, you're finding political reasons out of it... Shame on you moron...

Be Respectful and Watchful tooBy: Rajendra Gupta | Friday , 28 Nov '08 15:54:31 PM Reply | Forward We MUST be fully respectful to our brave soldiers and officers and NOT malign them. However , we must also be watchful about the misdoings of political bosses as the misuse of ATS by the political bosses is too obvious a fact to point out in recent times.The sacrifices by our brave officers and men are too invaluable for us to measure . But one of the main culprit in the shape of political interference in the organisation's functioning is , sad , but, a truth.

Terror attack at MumbaiBy: T.K.Ghosh | Friday , 28 Nov '08 10:14:22 AM Reply | Forward It is a shame to the group of politicians in power who govern the country not for the people but for themselves only to be in power for eternity.Their characters have made nearly all Institutions of our nation corrupt.The nation is in deep trouble now.How terrorists can enter through close vigil of BSF, Coast Guard or intelligence? Appeasement politics ultimately ruin themselves who support it.Our sincere homage to the great souls and condolence to the berieved family members.

TributeBy: Nitima | Friday , 28 Nov '08 10:09:41 AM Reply | Forward It's really sad and painful to know such heart breaking stories. These attacks have filled us with such a rage against terrorists and those in power who have the ability to chage our country but do not do that, willingly, as they need their vote banks. Shame on politicians, shame on Home Minister for giving such a uneffective statements that the whole country feels handicapped. I sincerly wish Mr. Bir strengh to bear this moment. May God Bless the souls of those who have departed and those who have to bear this pain for rest of their lives. Plz know that people like us are praying for all of you, even though we can not be there physically.

Praises from the tonges that lashed at him!!By: shince | Friday , 28 Nov '08 10:05:28 AM Reply | Forward Those who have questioned his integrity in the Malegaon investigations, are praising him after his death!! I am afraid what Amar sigh would say about this incident. During life and death these poor police men bear the brunt of the political impotency. Its time overdue to give the police the respect and dignity that they deserve. SALUTE TO ALL MY UNKNOWN INDIAN POLICE MEN!!

Salute to Great worriers By: Somnath wagh | Friday , 28 Nov '08 10:00:17 AM Reply | Forward These people are real hero's. We must salute them for their bravery and dedication shwon by them for we people. Now its time for government to rise up to the ocassion and compensate the lies of such a great worriers. They should take strict action against these terrorists. and their supporters, may it be any nation or organisation.Now, atleast they should understand meaning of individual's life, when they have lost such a great peoples. Especially.Central home ministry shall held themselves responsible along with State Govt. and should compensate the lives of the people and get rid of these terrorist.However, in my lifetime i have not seen anybody sacrificing so much for country like these peoples did. We just heard about Mahatma gandhi n all, but for me these peoples are the Worriers, who lost their lives while combating with bloody terrorist . I SALUTE THEM.

karkareBy: venkatrajp | Friday , 28 Nov '08 9:58:22 AM Reply | Forward Unfortunately Hemanth Karkare could not identify the real terrorists and true nationalists. True nationalists can be kicked, maligned and made to watch dirty cds as they soft and gullible, unlike Terrorists. The way Hemanth went inside the Taj with a Tin Helmet showed his lack of professionalism and comman sense. Politicians used him as a puppet. Friends, let us all stand united, all are one, God is one. Let us pledge to protect Mother India and not fight for religion. Sab Ka Malik Ek.

Salute to the HUTATMASBy: Mohit Wankhade | Friday , 28 Nov '08 9:58:14 AM Reply | Forward I salute Late Mr. Hemant Karkare and his brave colleagues who threw their lives in danger without any hesitation while fighting with terrorism. The politicians who were criticizing such officers should feel shame as because of such officers they can live safely and enjoy their political freedom. India has more danger from such votebank mentality politicains than the terrorists.The whole India will appreciate our "HUTATMAS" for not being disturbed because of this silly and blind criticism.

Strategic mistakeBy: c | Friday , 28 Nov '08 9:57:14 AM Reply | Forward my condolonces to the brave officers, they laid down their lives for a brave cause.having said that - it raises the question of the 2 key issues that contributed to their untimel y demise (1). command and control - why were'nt commondos who are specialized to these kind of operations not engaged, was there a need to expose them selves to unnecessary risk ? instead of providing good leadership at the operational level they acted a foot soldiers instead of becoming crises managers/leaders (2). Logisitics - i have read that all 3 travelled in the same vehicle - a very fatal and bad decision - you should not put all eggs in one basket - this is common sense.Again i am not questioning their intentions - it is only their decision making skills that is bothering me.

ill trained ATSBy: gc | Friday , 28 Nov '08 9:54:01 AM Reply | Forward big deal. this guy was shown on tv getting out of car without a bullet proof vest and a helmet. he got killed while he was wearing his helmet.
