    China CZ-2C rocket launch FAILED on Aug 18 2011

    The report is old. India's success rate for space launch is now 71% and improving. Please check latest launch stats which are readily available in the public domain. If you look at early Chinese launch data, you will see a similar increase in success rate. We have a solid low orbit launcher...

    Our neighbour Pakistan is on the brink of collapse

    I will vouch for your views. A few of my colleagues were in Pakistan (few months ago) to execute a telecom company's project. Things, at the ground level, seemed normal there, and they found that the street life was positively vibrant. The Indian media does us a disservice and almost never...

    Baba Ramdeb threaten to arms traning to supporters .

    Ramdev has lost face and is now acting like a petulant kid. There are better ways to get back at the government and we have a proper process for this. We are not a dictatorship. Misbehaving governments are shown the door in the next election. This behaviour makes me want to believe in...

    Majority of Pakistanis for 'Islamisation' of society: Poll

    Well, nationalism is also an "ism", but it's the way of the world today. For many nationalism is just a flag and a national anthem and rather would see themselves as world citizens (ala "vasudevam kutumbam"). If not indoctrinated either in nationalism or ummah-ism or any other religion-ism, most...

    Baba Ramdeb threaten to arms traning to supporters .

    Why doesn't he stand in an election? Why is he trying to subvert the parliamentary process? If he is popular, he will get elected. The government goofed up and showed it's brutal face. Ramdev is goofing up further. This side show is making us lose focus from the real issue at hand. I fear the...

    Majority of Pakistanis for 'Islamisation' of society: Poll

    Dar al-Aman means a land where as per law of that land, protection is available to followers of Islam and where Muslims have their own civil law. As per most interpretations, India was never considered Dar al-Harb. Correct me if I am wrong.

    sir.mm.alam in 2010

    M.M. Alam studied in Calcutta. His origin is from the Indian state of Bihar, so he's not a Bengali. However, people who have stayed long in Calcutta become honorary Bengali :) .

    200 Terrorists Attack Pakistan Post from Afghanistan

    RIP to soldiers. Pakistan should fence off it's borders with Afghanistan with electric fence. It's better than mines

    Anti Drone Technology made by Pakistan Students.

    Na Na, Gulti = SAM (like David's sling) Screensaver Radar interfaced with multimeter = Drone Tracker/Identifier to feed Gulti based SAM I guess some people have been punked! Pakistan has some fantastic engineers from NUST et al. but this looks like a prank

    The betrayal of Pakistan's rulers must be opposed

    Well, it was Pakistan whose sovereignty was violated and GOP/PA did nothing about it, and then you call Hindus cowardly? Funny way of making yourself feel better. Do you feel the same about Hindus in Pakistan too? May God give you peace and remove the bigot in you.

    “We lost Kargil” Lieutenant-General Kishan Pal

    Please see the youtube video, there is no relation between what's in the video and the content of the article. The article is rubbish. The source is questionable, Times of Bombay |  About is the about page. Contributing authors are from rupee news and the site names India as Bharat. Enough said

    Why is the World After Gaddafi a Honarable Man for Africa

    I hear you, but to see western powers barge in like gun toting cowboys, with vested interests to boot, is alarming. Specially when everyone knows. that it's not for "greater good" or democracy, but to protect/secure the west's interests. In fact, my father in law used to work in Libya from 1995...

    Why is the World After Gaddafi a Honarable Man for Africa

    A lot of nations have killed their own people, specially when they rise up against the current government, why is the world singling out Gaddafi? If you ever talk to people from Libya (even Indians who used to work there), they will tell you that Gaddafi has done a lot of good work in Libya...

    Indian footprints emerging on Naval base attack

    How does blowing up 2 Orions stop China (if she wishes to) from building a naval base? China will take care of defending what she's building. Yes, which points to the fact that the terrorists had some inside mole, and that some rogue elements of PN/PA were brainwashed with the terrorists'...
