Please extend a warm welcome to the India edition of the People’s Daily. If things go well, the Hindu is well on its way to be rechristened thus.
Ok, I made that up. After I read this. Actually, you can simply scroll way down that article till you reach this portion:
The BJP knows as well as anybody else that India and China have to display a spirit of give and take. To that extent Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin may well be linked, taking one could mean giving the other.
There was no way the traitors in that China-funded commie rag could openly say, Our Supreme Chairman Hu is asking for Arunachal, so it’s our duty to just give it, no questions asked. Therefore, the BJP-bashing route. The tone is also pretty educative:
The main Opposition party would be well advised not to play politics with serious issues related to border talks with China.
Well advised or “warned?”
Aren’t these the same double-crossers who in 1962, went scrounging for funds to support the Chinese invasion of India? Ask Mani Shankar Aiyar.

The Hindu is a notoriously anti-national newspaper and we stopped buying it and reading it ages ago. They are virulent anti-Hindu and anti-Nationalist… in many cases, they’re worse than the radicals in either side because of their pretence and hypocrisy. I hope “The Hindu” goes
down under…
By the way, Sandeep, can we exchange links?

How blatant can a newspaper get? This is outrageous.

I feel sad that “once” I too had been a part of this newspaper.
This is nothing but an “organ” for communist’s, hate India Love China propoganda.

Hindu’s patriotism (towards mother China) is well-known. But, do you have to say rechristened. I feel annoyed by the overuse of this verb form rather than using simple ‘renamed.’

Hindu is quoted in the west quite often as moderate newspaper - when ever it works for journalists to provide anti-Indian perspective as a dissent to majority view!
Socal, I agree. I guess everything is christened now - including Indian warships.

[...] Interestingly, Pranab’s own ally, the Left has maintained an outwardly saint-like silence over this episode, while its mouthpiece has spoken favourably about giving away Arunachal Pradesh to China. The Left’s extended family has proved to be a perpetual pinprick to the UPA, forcing it to make the right noises when public outcry becomes intolerable at times. [...]

[...] Forget 1962. Recent events including the ambassador’s disgraceful remarks, and the now-buried incident of China’s refusal to grant Visa(!) to an IAS officer shows with what silent ferocity China is working towards its goal. Unless questions of territorial integrity are not settled, all talk of peaceful and amicable relationships is vacuous. More importantly, with a country like China, which has almost perfected the game of deception. It maintains the serene countenance of the Laughing Buddha, the Serene Buddha, the Enlightened Buddha, or the Fire-spewing Dragon depending on what the situation demands of it. However, nothing deters our tribe of liberals, secularists, and bleeding hearts from arguing for the backstabber. [...]
