Just like Gurdaspur with a Muslim majority was given to India, so was Chittagong hills district which had a Buddhist majority was given to East Pakistan. The decision had more to do with administrative issues than conpiracies around Kashmir. And Mountbatten was not the only played in the...

IMO, it is only the Cholas who actually had an out of Indian subcontinent influence and rule. It really depends on how you define "historic India". This basically includes the entire SAARC countries as well as the lower Central Asian countries which have had close ties and migrations into...

I don't understand your point. Sania Mirza is Indian. No one denies that. But people here are denying that Laila Khan is Pakistani

CD has had so many eggs on his face that I am surprised he actually still comments on Indian threads when he knows someone will call him out on his BS. Just like Veena Malik is Pakistani, so is this particular Laila Khan. Just having the same name doesn't mean you become the same person

The Hindu : Business News : Xinjiang eyes direct land trade with India, Afghanistan China's far-western Xinjiang region is in favour of establishing direct trade links over land with India and Afghanistan to avoid routing trade through third party countries such as Pakistan, officials have...

Here is proof that there is severe restrictions of freedom of religion in China. As I have said earlier, kids under 18 are not allowed any practice of religious activities. And if you want to be a Communist party member which is the only way you can get govt. jobs, then you have to disavow...

^^^ You don't seem to have enough info. I don't want to go into the details but suffice to say both sides(ISraeli and Palestinains) were responsible. I think you don't know about the Saudi led 2002 Arab Peace initiative endorsed by the Arab Leauge (i.e. all Arab counties) and even the OIC It...

@ZABASHO Do you know the difference between centre and state govt? It is the Delhi State govt. that recently added amendments to the luxury tax. And this is something that BJP ruled states like Karnataka and MP have had for 5+ years now. For Delhi it will be only on those that have...

First of all people haven't read the entire High court judgment. Under Indian law, minor marraiges cannot be legally annulled unless the partners themselves request it until they attain the age of 18. This applies to ALL. A Hindu minor, Sikh minor e.t.c. all will have their marriage upheld even...

And if If I recall correctly in both cases, the Hindu community rightly felt insulted and raised objection to it demanding it be withdrawn. The bikini designer as well as the beer manufacturer withdrew their products with apologies to the Hindu community as they should have. And no one gave...

@bilal If only the Pakistani establishment thought the way you did, the Afghan problem would have been resolved 5 years ago. Too bad Musharraf and co. don't want to leave it to the Afghans to decide who will rule there. In the 90s, it was the ISI that powed in weapons and money to try and...

Not sure where you get your stats from. Your stats have been regularly junked by official sources. Chinese PMI for May was around 50 HSBC PMI: Indian manufacturing keeps up pace in May If you look at percentage growth again at 2004-05 prices, India had a 2.5 % manufacturing growth for 2010-11...

You didn't answer my question do you feel that the Taliban should or should not rule Afghanistan?

Maybe using the catch all Taliban is not really accurate. But there is no doubt that Pakistan is supporting and providing safe havens for the Haqqani Taliban group and provides a free hand. Senior Taliban representatives, such as Nasiruddin Haqqani, maintain residences in the immediate...

India Consortium to Decide on Afghan Gold, Copper Projects Soon -Executive | Fox Business A consortium of Indian state-owned companies will complete due diligence on a series of copper and gold projects in Afghanistan on June 5, and will make a final decision on whether to bid on the projects...

Well any person who wishes the well being of Afghans would do their utmost to support the ANSF and rid the country of the Taliban menace which has brought nothing but shame and distoreted Islam and Afghanistan and Pashtuns in particular. The NDS is also working and are getting tips from the...

Well your info is wrong because there is no Nehru or Indira Gandhi in that book. You are confusing with Midnight Children which is NOT banned in India. Indira Gandhi actually won a libel suit against Salman Rushide for defamation of character and Salman Rushide had to change his book because of...

I though Subramanium Swamy was a bit loony with some smart ideas, but now I think I will have to put him totally in the loony box. Vajpayee and Sonia Gandhi not giving him ministerial positions seems to have totally gone to his head. Earlier we had some crackpot guru saying the Rupee symbol has...

Israel no doubt helped India during the Kargil War but its an overstatement that it is the only reason why India was able to win the war. Only Pakistanis, and Indians who don't have confidence in the Indian armed forces make the statement that Israel is the only reason India won the war...
