Speaking of minority appeasement, did you see the story in Pioneer about the central government coming up with a scheme to hand out doles to the families of Kashmiri terrorists killed by the army? Unbelievable!!

Democracy in Burma. Democracy in Nepal. Democracy in Iraq. Democracy in Native Americas. Destroy the native culture and rechristen as Democracy. Take comfort in the operation of democracy by christianized Nehruvian British lackeys. Don’t worry, it is life.

The congress putting the project on hold worrying for it’s election prospects next year shows it’s shortsightedness. This attempt to put the project on a backburner is hogwash. When it’s only concerned with staying in power, expectations should automatically be low.

The Congress is definately shooting itself in the foot by resorting to such measures. Coupled with it’s indecisiveness on numerous national issues, myopic political views, lack of serious leadership, it is scripting it’s own downfall.

We need leaders with an agenda that takes the betterment of ALL the people & the nation into account & who harbour such passions. There is no room for partisanship. Every leader/party that fails to realise this risks being marginalized. This is becoming increasingly evident.

>> What is this democracy? >>

A democracy where those asking for simple data become enemy of the state. (ie YFE, whose single point demand is a study of the beneficiaries first)

It seems they would publish codes to our nuclear weapons before they tell us how various target groups have fared until now (after 80+ years).

Without data, it would be unreasonable to expect people to vote against protectors of their caste/ religion/ whatever benefits. Why would anyone act against their self interest ?

What is this democracy? There are hundreds of thousands of groups in India, they all compete and have been competing for past many millenia. By giving a name to this fact as “democracy”, what has been achieved? You think there is no violence in democracy? As has been said Democracy is just a controlled civil war. Do not confuse the future of Sanathana Dharma which is under constant attack by the 4M nexus as operation of democracy.
