A very moot point. Zardari might just bite this one. The ISI might be disbanded as a prequisite for more financial aid to Pakistan and the subsequent American withdrawal. The ISI might come in a different avatar, more smaller and less independant and less potent. However this might leave...

Ok ,fair enough, India sponsors Pakistan Taliban. The consulates along the border is there for a reason. The disappropriate Indian activity (running into bilions) inside Afghanistan and Tajikistan is part of India's strategic interest to flank Pakistan along its Northern and Western borders...

Thats one huge difference between ISI and RAW. ISI and its chief is in your face, forever involved in Pakistani politics and likes to advertise its presence. RAW on the other hand is more covert, more like a classic intelligence organisation and hardly advertises its presence. Its presence...

Why is it highly secret ?? The Indian dossier highligting Pakistani involvement in 26/11 was highly publicised by the Indian foreign office as well as the Indian and Pakistani media. The report is ambigious and does not name names.. a requisite for any article to be deemed credible. If the...

There is no proof, nor its a great report. Ahmed Quraishi is not a credible site. The only credibility can and should come from legitimate government sources. Otherwise , stop being a laughing stock !

Wow, this must be a big setback for your Sino friendly Prime Minister. Kevin needs to put all his Mandarin skills to good use and try to get across this one. Seriously, China lacks transparacy. Stern Hu might be guilty but China needs to show that justice is given to him in a fair and...

Half of them work as well :azn:

What you term as a victory, I term a small concession. Indian Foreign Ministry are masters of this game. Stop and Start Diplomacy. Its reasonable now to assume that there will be no concessions from India. What Zardari/Gilani and before that, Musharraf wanted from India, some concessions...

If you take out the blinkers, the bigger problem is educating the millions who never get a chance to complete primary, let alone see the inside of a lecture hall in a university. The problem of educating the girl child, the street urchin, the beggar on the street. The problem of solving the...

Your figures are correct and on the ball. Just a slight error ! Just put a minus (negative ) (-) in front of the percentage amounts and you will do just fine !:)

India has not legalised the practise of homosexuality. It has made the practise of consensual sex between people of the same gender legal and equal to the practise of consensual sex between heterosexuals. It is basically a non discriminating law in line with most other nations...

Ok, Own up !! How many Pakistanis here have ID's with the name Rajesh Kapoor !! I know I would have made one and sold bootlegged liqour at premium prices !! Business man, business !!:taz:

Really scratching the bottom of the barrel here. Most of them are a joke with hardly any members involved in terrorist activities against the state of India. If you start calling an organisation of 20 members , most of them already left or incaceration , a terrorist organisation, people will...

Good As long as there are no drugs involved or it does not hurt any sentiments, this is perfectly acceptable in a civilised society. Being liberal does not hurt anyone !:enjoy:

India is not a fool (well not as yet). The candid admission by Zardari that Pakistan is a supporter of terrorism (thats what the literal meaning is) will come and bite him one day. Many nations including many liberal nations support one sort of freedom or terrorism (for the counterparty) as a...

Gays and Hijras still exist at the fringes of society in India and Pakistan. So this is really a token law that does nothing for the equal treatment of the 'unfortunate' in the society. I remember a article of one 'Hijra' that was stoned by kids in a small town in Haryana, with the elders...

There was definately no insult. According to , Pakistan's High Commissioner to India, Shahid Malik, had officially requested last week and conveyed it to Indian Foreign Secretary Shiv Shankar Menon that President Zardari would like to meet Dr Singh on the sidelines of the SCO. However...

This unfortunately sums up Pakistan during its 62 year old existance. All that remains is the great Pakistani hope that its nation will somehow fight back and become one of the leading luminaries of the world and or the islamic empire ! Unfortunately, Pakistan has travelled too far back in...

Agree with the author here. Actually India's agricultural reforms started well before China, starting in 1965 with the 'green revolution'. Since then, India had made substantial gains in agricultural production. What India lacked is the industrial and economic reforms that it needed in...

Its time for India to consider its dual policy in Afghanistan, however as long as ordinary Indians remain aloof to Indian external policies coming from Afghanistan and aimed at Pakistani targets in FATA, then no peace is possible at all. I am looking at the irony of the situation. This is...
