But did'nt someone just say that it was a burst tyre?

You're on track there. The LCH is sure to touch 200+ in IA's AAC. With the Rudra in even more numbers, precisely for the reasons that you mention. Just as the Armed version of the Mi-17s are flying now. More Rudras will get deployed to the N and NE theaters. These two Helos have their future...

What about the PA Officer (CO of the unit) who was on the other side; when 2/Lieut. Arun Khetarpal fought and fell at the Battle of Basantar ! Years later; he came to India and met Khetarpal's father and described the battle and his son's valor, first hand. In the Kargil incident; the Indian...

The story above only reminds us how Truth can be stranger than Fiction. @Icarus; can it be possible that you are able to dig out some more leads about your familial connections ? Maybe some efforts can be made to trace them out. If my memory serves me right; even @RescueRanger had a family home...

This is an opportunity to carve out yet another trade route into Europe; one which gives an opportunity to the hitherto neglected CARs. World Trade becomes more meaningful and inclusive when Countries are given more options to ply their trade. Recall how the closure of the Suez Canal by the...

Here is the nitty-gritty of that Report: NEW DELHI: The much-awaited International North South Transport Corridor (INSTC) through Iran has been set in motion, with New Delhi, Tehran, Moscow and 10 other nations at a recent meeting in Delhi approving draft transit and customs agreements, which...

One way to raise funds: take all the income from Fauji Fertilisers and Fauji Corn-Flakes and use that to buy new aircraft for PAF. If thereis a Fauji Pop-Corn, then use that up too. Second way: I read on another thread on PDF; that there is $ 1500 Billion worth of Gold in Reko Dik. Take that...

LOLLLL, that is the right way to deal with Madmen who come out on the streets. Time that UK and Europe also woke up and handled their Madmen like-wise.

Just looking at the mayhem on the thread "Why Kalam Represents India, and Aurangzeb does not" and the EXEMPLARY ROLE played by TTAS like Syed Ali and Donatello in adding to the ridiculous carnage; makes one wonder what absurdly low standards that the forum can set for itself. @Slav Defence; you...

Is this picture from "Alice in Wonderland" ?

Can this be turned into a Tank? PA is looking for a MBT.

That is precisely what I said in the earlier post. The problem is more related to fly-ash related issues and less to GCV issues.

I was speaking specifically about Lignite which is what Thar Coal is. India is a different matter, there is both Steaming Coal and Lignite in India. Most of the Coal is Steaming Coal which can be used in Thermal Power Plants, however it has an high Ash Content, which is more of a management...

Is'nt it mind-boggling that no proper feasibility study has been done on something that is being touted as a reserve of resources ? Does an 'assumption' qualify to form the basis of some judgements? About the Thar Lignite based pilot project; can you provide any data on the operating...

RIP the victims.

Even that claim is questionable. As I said earlier, there has been enough discussions on this here on PDF. And the member's name that I've stated, made some very valuable and informed contributions. As for Thar Lignite, is a Brown Coal of very low thermal coefficient, it remains to be seen how...

However the question is how much exploitable reserves are there in those fields ? Just as there is also evidence of Shale Gas in Pakistan, but the question is whether it is viable to extract and use it. Similarly Pakistan has Lignite Coal reserves; but how suitable are they for the future Power...

Nehru lived in a world of fantasy; where he saw himself not only as the leading Indian Statesman, but as a World Statesman. However, much to his chagrin; in 1962 he had to confront the fact that he had reached his 'use by date'.

Ok..... but before that you'd better shut off the RedFlow.

Keep the Bums ready.
