More light on the Modi affair, courtesy B Raman, known for penning thoughtful analyses on defence and foreign policy issues. While JK speculated–and it’s not difficult to guess either–that some big time lobbying by interested parties helped the visa revocation, Raman substantiates it with real names. The villain person in focus is one Mr. John [...]
It is really amusing to learn that the sense of self-importance of some people borders on insanity. Case in point: Comrade Somnath Chatterjee. He doesn’t want to go to Sydney because
‘My country’s prestige is at stake and I don’t want to compromise on it. As Speaker of the Lok Sabha which represents the world’s largest [...]
Post deleted because it was too gory.
Via Communism Watch, I got the following picture. Apparently, the indoctrinated thugs of the CPI are destroying a shop sporting Nike goods.

At least five labourers were injured by an improvised explosive device (IED) blast that took place on the Srinagar-Muzaffarabad road on Tuesday. The incident took place barely two days before the first [...]
Got this link from a friend. Amartya Sen, the Nobel Prize-winning communist’s heart is still–despite his age and experience–with, and in China: to be precise, with Comrade Mao. This academician couldn’t hold back his gushing praise and promptly put his foot… where else?
In Hong Kong last week it was Nobel Prize economist Amartya Sen [...]
From one secular fundamentalist to another: from Shekar Gupta to Purushottam Agarwal (?).
A certain Purushottam Agarwal, who teaches at the Mosque of JNU has taken it upon himself to unlayer the multi-layered issue of the Modi visa denial episode. So he begins with a quote from Samuel Huntington only to pour venom on the scholar. [...]
At last count, I pocketed 5 April Fools. Two commenters sent me email offline enquiring whether this was my April Fool prank. Hence this clarification entry. No folks, I’m not quitting blogging.
Others could however, detect my real intent.
