    India No. 4 in World's Best Education Destination list

    Management is the art of getting work done by others. You don't need to go to school to learn that. Ask mothers - they have mastered this art. Jokes aside, people don't go to B-Schools to learn the clichéd rocket science, but to build their network. The better the school, the more high...

    Taliban true followers of Islam: minister

    I wonder if he'll retract his statement in response to a public outcry (which I don't see happening). Might go back to the good old distinction of good Taliban vs bad Taliban.

    Pakistan will not repeal blasphemy law: minister

    No offence, but should the punishment be this harsh? Blasphemy is tough to define, and I can't seem to accept the death punishment for this "offence". No religion should be above questioning, as long as it is done with genuine intentions. If it is a malicious demonstration against people of a...

    It Happens in Cricket ?

    The West Indies have always been a graceful sporting nation. Australia can have a thousand "invincibles", but none can match the Windies in spirit. Let's hope they become the champion team they were once.

    India drubs Pakistan to enter semis

    Hockey certainly has a future in India. We just need more vision and planning in internalizing our national sport. The idea is not to compete with cricket, but to make an alternative base of fans. To start with, we need to revive the Premier Hockey League. That will bring enthusiasm, talent and...

    Hindu Ramayana and Islam (Allah) in a religious text!

    Allah is just a placeholder for the concept of god. And everyone knows the concept of god is not the invention of any one particular religion. Malaysia is one of the countries where Islam spread through peaceful means (basically trade) and people would have tried to cross over mythology with...

    Shanghai high-rise flats on fire

    In all the hysteria of India's "progress" on one hand, and sympathy shown to the slums and villagers on the other, people overlook the needs of the middle class. We need to ensure better living conditions for migrant populations in cities, or develop more towns and cities so people can live a...

    ¡¡¡¡¡¡

    A sound democracy needs a free and responsible fourth estate. As the gentleman himself says, the media has done a fine job by exposing the dark secrets of the so called "guardians of society". Some worry about giving too much power to the media lest they become irresponsible like we see in...

    Zulqarnain goes missing in Dubai

    Interesting excerpt from Harsha Bhogle's article in cricinfo. I had the same feeling - if Haider couldn't approach any senior players or the PCB, the level of trust and integrity in the team is questionable. It is very easy to tell the world what Zulqarnain should have done, but that would be a...

    Pakistan vs South Africa: 2 T20s, 5 ODIs & 2 Tests

    Forget the end result. You guys should be really proud of your team for playing their hearts out and taking the series till the last hour of play. Given the circumstances and the PCB dampening their spirits, it is a credit to the players to put up such a performance. I see a lot of criticism for...
