I think these bills might be unpaid due to corruption investigations currently on. If these companies paid bribes then they were partners in the crime and its only fair that their payments are delayed pending the investigations. But if not, then they should be paid immediately. But why the...

Apna Mohana language vich ta changa si..! Aah economics da bhoot pata nahi kitho charh gaya..! :)

I'd second that..!

Yes, Hayyer or Hayer is a jatt surname and only a jatt himself could have written such a hilarious piece on jatts. Great job..! Regarding Janjuas, maybe they were later absorbed into the fold of the Rajputs. Let me try and remember where I first came across the argument that Porus could have...

That is one funny piece Shearer and I have promptly shared it with my tribesmen, the Jatts. Dont worry I have kept your identity hidden! On Porus, I read somewhere that he could have been a Janjua Rajput. The Janjuas are still a pretty well known community in Punjab and along with the Kambojas...

I first came across Basharat's story in a documentary on CNN IBN. Pretty sad to see a sportsman suffering for no fault of his. At the same time I would want to know what went wrong at the Mohun Bagan Academy. There's another Kashmiri footballer who's a regular in the Indian team - Mehrajuddin...

The Story of a Kashmiri Footballer “I am waiting for a letter from my club in Brazil. So if it comes tomorrow, I will leave within a week,” says Basharat Baba, his exuberant smile tinged with the cockiness of an athlete. Edgily dressed all in black, the 20-year-old could be any young man...

I know about the massacres by the Christian armies during the Crusades. Jerusalem suffered everytime the Christians conquered it. But that is not the topic of the debate. The fact is that armies and rulers seldom go by the book. The book being Quran or the Bible. I am sure Islam also doesnt...

Even if we use your nomenclature, it doesnt change many things. Even if I assume that Punjab wasn't a part of Hindustan proper, it still faced these invaders. Punjabis including Hindus, Muslims and later Sikhs suffered at the hands of these very invaders like Abdali. That means that my initial...

You could be right. But rape was a common war occurence. An invading army uptill modern times almost always indulged in it to subjugate the conquered people. If you are trying to use religious edicts as defense for Caliphate armies how would you justify the expansionist policies? The Caliphate...

You clearly need a lot of history lessons. Please do everybody a favor and trawl through past debates on similar threads with history related topics. Its no point regurgitating all the arguments again and again.

That is not very hard to fathom, is it? To everybody west of the Khyber, India started with the plains beyond Indus. A majority of the area overrun by the Abdalis and Ghauris of the world was current day Pakistan. The looting, raping and pillaging was a part and parcel of every invasion, not...

Well Sidhu should have chosen his words more carefully. He knows South Asian sensibilities and could have chosen a better analogy to describe the BD team. And I dont think he's a good commentator. His commentary is too much of a distraction.

You are better than that Jana. Why the communal joke?

Dont get your point. You are trying to say that there were some bad commentary on and you instinctively assumed that it must be Sidhu? And do you guys get more than one channel with English commentary? We have just one for English and one for Hindi. And if its the same case on your side, then...

Why dont the guys who are complaining simply stop watching these Indian channels and the Indian commentators? Doesnt any Pakistani channel show these games? If not then live with it.

Deleted. Not required anymore.

I think these pics are of the anti-Naxal focussed jungle warfare training school in Kanker, Chattisgarh.

I agree. After all, one shouldn't use too hardline measures against one's own people. Be it Kashmiris or ordinary Libyans.

That is a rhetorical question. And can be asked for any country's military and offensive capability.
