Shashi tharoor found an easy way out in registering his protest and displeassure on new visa guidelines. He thought it was simple to post 140 charcaters on twitter instead of clarifying his views on new visa guidelines which could have taken hours or even days to fight it out with other members in his department.

Advise to Minister of state for external affairs, Shahsi tharoor: Tax payers are paying you monthly wages and reimbursing your five star hotel stays not to tweet, but to team up with other members in your team and reason out with them in shaping the guidelines and making our country safe. We want you to work hard in making your views clear to them and contribute your mite to the security of this nation and its progress. We don’t like it, when you put your cry baby face on twitter and garner sympathy in front of twitter crowd who may not have all the gory details you have. Be a man and defend your views within the 4 walls of the ministry or else ressign and tweet full time. If people with powers are showing helplessness, impatience and are irresponsibly fighting it out in the open, what kind of confidence are you giving us?
It is we, who should tweet and blog because thats what we are good at doing. We have given you privillege to do the the stuff we can’t.

Congress party’s age old partisan politics and “what is in it for me” attitude has done greater damage for itself in dealing with Telangana issue. Sonia Gandhi has lost credibility in her knee jerk reaction to KCR’s hunger strike and announcement of separate telangana overnight and that day being her birthday also added to the controversy.

It is time now to start afresh consultations with opposition parties, people and come to consensus on the agitation of Telanganites. It is time to review the allegations of water allocations, fund allocations and influx of people from other regions into Telangana and rendering localites jobless. It is time to take this agitation away from street goondas and real estate brokers who have used every trick in the book to showcause what they can do.

Separate Telangana or United Andhra Pradesh, following things are must for review
1) Fresh look at all water projects that were planned but not implemented, planned but left half done.
2) Fresh look at allocation of funds
3) Rename the state to Telugu pradesh, if United state is still an option.
4) Creating leaders from Telangana region, by giving opportunity to localites for various positions within the government.
5) Creation of educational infrastructure in Telangan region
6) Spending additional 10% of all tax money generated from Hyderabad for Telangana upliftment.

Raj bhavan has been virtually turned into Prostitution bhavan or Sani bhavan by Congress nominee N.D Tiwari. N.D Tiwari’s act has  bought disgrace to the Governor office, title and role.

This episode should bring in needed discussion on ethics in politics. There are scores of Politicians in roles such as MLAs, MPs, CMs, PMs and Ministers etc who abuse their power for their selfish needs and also try to strengthen their personal or family businesses.
A process should kick in now to tackle issues such as high level corruption that happens in power corridors. Strong laws to prevent criminals from entering into politics.
Strong laws to punish culprits who destroy public properties to demonstrate their street power politics in meeting their political deeds they can’t achieve through democratic process.

In 2009 assembly elections people have vehemently rejected TRS and TDP combine who fought on seperate statehood issue. Elections are the only way people can express their wish and thats what they did. How can Sonia sideline people’s wish and gift a birthday present and decide separate statehood for Telangana?

How can state cover up its inability to provide security by midnight statement of bifurcation? I completely agree with MLAs and MPs resigning en mass as a protest against unilaterism of Congress high command.

Is Sonia’s word more powerfull than people’s vote? How can they pass resolution if MLAs resign in large numbers?
It is interesting to see. CM Rosiah is too weak to handle the responsibilities. He should put in his papers and retire. Let their be fresh elections.

Allocation of more funds to Telangana was the solution and not bifurcation. How will Telangana survive on its own?

Newspapers have done a lousy job, Fearing attacks they have not written articles for or against the statehood issue. They are like political entities who look after their property and business. The value of the content they produce for the growth of their society is nill.

Thanks

When people have repeatedly voted against the seperate Telangana state, why should the state succumb to few people who are hell bent on seperate Telanagana for their selfish needs?
Why can’t justice take its course and punish those who are taking matters to the extreme by indulging in goondaism?
Is it people’s movement? If it is then why didn’t people voted the TRS,TDP and BJP to power or atleast maximum seats in Telanaga region?
Do you characterize the rasta roko, rail roko and chal assembly has people’s wish?

I don’t understand why TDP supremo is doing the same mistake twice? I simply don’t understand why my leader whom i adore is misbehaving and mis-charecterizing these pressure tactics as people’s wish for seperate Telangana?

TRS has no agenda and they have no backing. This party is made up of few individuals who have no interest in running the state.
Seperate Telangana would be a disaster in making for state of AP and also India.
Thanks

To know what this editorial says read the article   Turn away some of that NRI money

The article makes no sense and at best reflects the lack of understanding of market dynamics of buying and selling dollars in the open market through various schemes. How such an idiot could become an editor that too for a reputed economictimes paper is beyond my understanding.

Every exporter/importer including some government agencies involve some hedging to fend of currency fluctuations. At times, they short rupee and at some other times they short foreign currency. Do you call such activity unpatriotic?

I am interested in seeing this idiot who came up with this theory on economictimes.indiatimes.com
NRIs have been sending money from decades which actually filled the plates of government that helped them to import goods into the country. Sending dollars to India is not of a recent phenomenon. There will be flood of dollars in coming months due to low interest rates in US and how is this editor going to stop that is still unknown. Government on one hand is seeking cheap money and economictimes editorial staff is roguish and is resorting to jingoism without any purpose.

Hasan’s act at a Military base in Texas will surely put many Muslims career in jeopardy in United States and outside. I hope not, but that is a reality that is unstoppable.

If Hasan is on US payroll and if he saw a conflict of interest between his duties as US military employee and as a true devotee of Islam, then he should have simply resigned from the job and join the Mosque. But, wait a minute, If he resigned who would pay his bills and who would give him and his family members food? Definitely not the local mosque and definitely not the Allah. These bastards want to enjoy the fruits of democracy, freedom and richness of other cultures but at the same time want to pursue a double life as a true Muslim too. If he was not allowed to resign, then he should not have joined the army in first place.

But wait a minute, Islam says that you cannot work for for-profit organizations and also arguably says that you cannot fight against muslims. It also says that you cannot cooperate with jews and Christians etc. That leaves very few places for Muslims to pursue their career and growth. These unwritten rules and tenets will isolate Muslims more to a point that they all need an Island to themselves to breathe and practise religion.

Who would trust fellow Muslims in their offices now? It is the Mosque that is breeding ground of terrorism. If cleric was not able to clear the confused mind of Hasan, then who should have done that?

Islam as a religion is good in books, but what is bad is its interpretation that is imbibed in the minds of millions that can dangerously affect Islam’s future.
Its time for the Clerics  to rethink on how to build a future version of this abused religion.

Destruction of Dollar value and Electric cars can stop the abuse of Islam. OPEC countries and many other Muslim oil producing countries have huge reserves of Dollars. It is these dollars that are sitting idle and spreading evil version of Islam. Dollars destruction would definitely put a brake on that. Electric cars would definitely push all Muslim countries to begging as they didn’t diversify at all all these years. They will then know how to co-exist and work hard.

Give all Muslims a big chunk of earth with no connectivity to the rest of the cultures and religion. Let them survive, breath and practise religion as they wish. Let us see, what will happen to them after 25 years. They will swim and runaway to the mighty shores of development, freedom of the rest of the world as there is no meaning to practising Religion in all its purity. Lol

Good luck to all my Muslim friends and this article  is no offence to them.
Thanks

Organizing committe chairman Suresh Kalmadi wants to rope in Rahul as Leader of the games as per TOI report.

Here are my questions to Suresh Kalmadi

1) Can you define what role could Rahul play as Leader?
2) Leader for what aspects of the game and what are his qualifications for that?
3) What kind of leadership role could Rahul play at this late stage ? Could you define the metrics for that role?
4) What kind of advice you have been taking from Rahul  and why and in what capacity? Is that ethically correct?

On what basis is Jagan qualified to be Chief Minister? The current mess in Andhra Pradesh congress is the creation of YSR. He made sure that no one gets elected to Assembly on congress ticket who can challenge him.  He carefully selected toothless leaders and also gave them free rein to loot the state. He implemented schemes for poor only with the tax payers money, but didn’t work hard to increase the tax revenue of the state to help sustain the social schemes he introduced.

All the Ministers and MLAs who are rallying for his candidature should bow their heads in shame for the utter irresponsible behavior. This display of immaturity is only going to hurt congress in future.

Challenge to Jagan:  Accept Presidentship of Andhra Pradesh congress unit and ride it through next assembly elections. Show us your maturity, leadership qualities and above all management skills. Running a newspaper with tax payers money is not business acumen.

Your silence on this issue is mischievous at best and sinister.

God save telugu people from rudderless congress party.

Today’s Political and Scientific community’s clash over 1998 nuclear tests has yielded more energy in units of kiltons than the actual nuclear tests.

Everybody be it Missile man Azad or Scientific adviser to Government Kakodkar or scientists are making vague claims of success or failures. Taxpayers need more vivid explanation and answers about past and future tests.

Why all those idiots who are shouting now were silent all these years? What right does Former president Azad has to validate the tests?

Kakodkar is a pure political person. There is no basis for us to take his word at its face value. He initially didn’t support Indo US civil nuclear pact and sided with BJP. However, he later retracted and started supporting the deal. We are still not clear about his U turn.

BJP needs to come out and explain the need to go nuclear in 1998 in a rush.

Credibility less scientific community is questioning the credibility of 1998 tests and our nuclear deterrence.  I has a taxpayer ask and also seek the credibility of our nuclear establishment first before anything else. How come you are raring your heads now after a decade? Your salaries are being paid by us and not the political outfit that runs the government. You should be working for us and not for NDA or UPA.
