Headley travelled to India nine times on business visaBy: Praful R Shah | Sunday , 22 Nov '09 13:46:08 PM Reply | Forward I hate to point out that the problem is with Indian consulates and Indian selling themselves for a buck. One should see how pathetic service is provided by Indian Consulates overseas. The SIM card used by 26/11 terrorist was issued to a non existing Govt. employee. The Indian who trained terrorist could not be found. Do not blame all NRIs visiting India who have families are there. The Govt. agencies should do their job. Can someone answer whom to blame not providing bullets for AK-47 issued to them? How about using WWII war obsolete weapon used in 2008 and who is responsible? Everyone in India is price and majority is for sale.

WakeUpBy: PG | Monday , 9 Nov '09 11:02:32 AM Reply | Forward Our intelligence community should start becoming more intelligent and comeout with multiple methods of analysis and detections to catch these guys. Also why limit to only to Pakis?
These are blood-thirsty peopleBy: Raj | Monday , 9 Nov '09 10:54:00 AM Reply | Forward The religious fanatcs- A_Qaida, Let, RSS, Bajrang Dal, etc. are thirsty for the blood of ohers. Religious fanaticism should be banned in Pak and in India. They should be arrested like the US did. They should not be let go just because these groups belong to majority groups in PAk and India. Another caution- Muslims should not be allowed to change their names as they might act like an angel to kill people. Editor-please take note- "David Coleman Headley" is not a Christian name. David is a Jewish name. He was one of the kings of Israel.
David Coleman HeadleyBy: Kumar | Monday , 9 Nov '09 10:37:07 AM Reply | Forward Worrying. Now government should see how many more 'David Coleman Headley's' are travelled to India, In India.
Identify the local supportsBy: shyam kishore | Monday , 9 Nov '09 10:19:21 AM Reply | Forward There is a definte local support given to these people and that is very organized . Goverment choose to ignore the Local support part in Mumbai attack for reasons best known to them . In kerala too the surge of religious fanaticm and extremism is encouraged by a longstanding congress ally .even with all the evidences Congress choose to ingron that ang forster ties to get more vote from a religious minority . Any coordiated terror attack is not possible without a local support .Unless we identify and eleminate that factor we will be one like Pakistan being tormented by internal terror elements .
HTF did he get a visa?By: arun lal | Monday , 9 Nov '09 9:41:53 AM Reply | Forward Was the Indian consular service in the US asleep at the wheel? Has it been privatised so that it does not care? Why are Indian visas being issued by a private commercial company?
Do not shoot the messengerBy: Deven | Tuesday , 10 Nov '09 3:24:55 AM Reply | Forward You will find that the private company "is not involved in the process of assessment of visa applications, or their grant or refusal. The assessment of visa applications is carried out by the High Commission of India or its Consulates, and the grant or refusal of India visas is at their sole discretion". So you are right, the consular services are asleep at the wheel.
Travel to India is easy By: Varghese Joseph | Monday , 9 Nov '09 9:30:42 AM Reply | Forward What all these things reflects is how intelligently each people visits India without much detection? Hence, I feel that all the immigration procedures should be upgraded with professional standards, and also at the time of issuing visas, those applications should be analysed thoroughly. For these jobs why cant the Govt. use retired hands? Afterall this is very very important matter. Am immediate preventive action is required.
retired hands?By: adaamin | Monday , 9 Nov '09 11:21:10 AM Reply | Forward Retired hands cannot be used as all the relatives of the Government when they retire are already very very rich why will they do such a job. The old option is to give preference to new relatives so by the time they retire they also get rich..
