True that, but don't we have the same fear of riots if Jagraatas were to be banned? You just can't do this in India, at least not until most of our people are educated and gain some civic sense.
Yes, I think I saw something on TV about that. It was about a stone with Viking engravings and other artifacts in the American midwest. Is that what you are talking about.
I have read that before and there was a pretty good article on Nat Geo about this. But that is migration, and not...
The Olympics is a much bigger event and China did an awesome job of pulling it off. Indians should host the Olympics on a grander scale before comparing ourselves with China.
That isn't entirely fair. The media is controlled in China and journalists were allowed only in certain places. I am...
@Certain Indian Members: Please don't derail this thread by discussing the plight of Pakistani Hindus. Your points are valid, but it is their problem. They are Pakistanis, and let them deal with their situation. We are not the thekedars of all the Hindus of the world.
Do you want a Muslim to be the PM regardless of capability? If there is someone capable, surely many people will vote for him. Farooq Abdullah, Omar Abdullah and Salman Khurshid are the only senior ones I know of. You'll notice that their credentials pale in comparison to those of Manmohan...
Will you care to explain your concern? Don't Pakistanis always say a religious person need not be an extremist? In any case, a person's religion shouldn't have a bearing on his/her ability to deliver their duties.
How does 'Muslim Majority' come into the picture? India has a pretty low rank too - 112 is not too flattering when our neighbor to the south is ranked 16. Surely there is more than just a religious correlation in this. Can we discuss those issues?
Overly nationalistic people from both sides routinely take digs at each other, and that is normal for an online forum. But Indians restrict it to nationality. Among Pakistanis, even Elite members, Think Tanks and sometimes Admins don't refrain from insulting or taking digs at Hinduism. That...
You are generalizing again. Generations have gone by since they became free people, and even criminals want to give their children a good life. Please stop this baseless argument, and generalizing the entire nation amounts to racism.
Like Saeed Anwar's 194? Wake up dude...records are set everywhere. Batting records are set on flat tracks and bowling ones are set on seaming, bouncy tracks.
@indianrabbit
By and large, what you have mentioned is what happens in every society and every country. Minorities get away with many things for which the "majority" will be judged. In America, a Black person can get away with minor racial slurs against Whites and Latinos, but the same in...
Then my mistake. But TOI was wrong to bring in the Tendulkar and cricket angle. And to base their story on the words of some security personnel without verifying the facts was irresponsible.
Now now, don't tell me the media is unbiased in any part of the world. The degree of bias may vary...
This news seems like a load of BS. People in developed countries don't take losses personally, especially sportsmen themselves. They like to have a good time at games, and applaud good sportsmen, no matter which side they play for. I can only believe this if they were on weed or something, but...
