    Almost too good to be true. Bihar results have taught me to wait for the actual counting.

    Indian Political Corner | All Updates & Discussions.

    My sympathy lies with the heart-broken father. I think it really takes lots of guts to first face up the death of his own son and then to disown him for such unfortunate reasons. I can't even imagine what his mother might be going through. BUT I think, for their own sake and for all our sake...

    Another Indian shot dead in US

    Yep, same experiences here. An average American is less likely to know about stuff that don't directly affect them or anything that their mainstream media doesn't cover on a regular basis - much less about India or about Indians. That is clearly not an affront to them since even an educated...

    Dalai Lama says Chinese hardliners have parts of brain missing

    So do several groups of Christians with their own Pope. Your point being? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_of_the_Coptic_Orthodox_Church_of_Alexandria

    India’s concerns over CPEC ‘unwarranted’: Chinese state media

    If India's concerns over CPEC unwarranted, so are China's concerns about US arming Taiwan "unwarranted"! And so are China's concerns about US fishing in troubled waters of South China Sea. See? Two can play this game.

    INDIA’S IMPREGNABLE BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE INTERCEPTOR SHIELD IS A STRONG MESSAGE TO PAKISTAN

    No shit, Sherlock! The OP itself said as much if you cared to read, at all!

    'Children Bank Of India' Notes: Man Tasked With Refilling SBI ATM Arrested

    Too late, mate! The damage has already been done. As usual, Mudi maintains his silence even as his political opponents have been conducting hit jobs one after another.

    Kaziranga: The park that shoots people to protect rhinos

    Besides, how is this toad allowed to change the title shamelessly and drag Modi wherever he doesn't belong? This is his 2nd thread on the same subject - both times he used the same old BBC report.

    Work on INDIA's BULLET TRAIN is underway in Full Swing

    In other words, the existing tracks have all but reached their saturation points! How do you think these lines are going to serve for the next 50-60 years? Think of HSR as a brand new line for future-proofing - albeit at a higher cost. You don't get it, do you? It is not India's money to...

    Work on INDIA's BULLET TRAIN is underway in Full Swing

    I thought this debate was settled couple of years ago when they signed it with JICA. Not getting to feasibility studies, since someone already answered it - Japan is offering very attractive loans - specifically for HSR. Essentially, it is either for HSR or nothing at all. Since HSR is not...

    First Day IMAGES from CARTOSAT -2 Series Satellite

    For those comparing these images with those obtained from Google, the key word is REAL TIME imaging. Apart from the far superior resolution, the multiple CARTOSAT satellites, each with a orbital time of 90 minutes, provide near real-time imaging of any targeted area - 24x7.

    Indian Political Corner | All Updates & Discussions.

    Agreed, but Patnaik Jr. is bound to feel threatened when BJP is eating away his lunch. Besides, he already has a history of ditching BJP when the alliance didn't suit him in the past. And of course, I would be happy to be proven wrong, but I think it is really dicey for BJP in UP. Already...

    That's really positive. Come 2019, BJP would do well to spread her target area to states like Odisha/NE/South to compensate for UP and Bihar. Can't expect to win as many seats from UP/Bihar this time around. But on the flip side, there goes chances of getting BJD on board NDA. Now the Patnaik...

    2/19/17 SpaceX successfully lands first-stage Falcon rocket back at Cape Canaveral [not ocean barge]

    A fantastically complicated maneuver even for Jet fighters not so long ago, now being accomplished with far more unwieldy Rockets! Simply amazing stuff! I really wish we can clone a 100 Musk's simply for his vision. Does the rocket fly backwards all it's way down?

    ISRO launches record 104 satellites into space

    Apart from the debris accumulated naturally over billions of years, the man-made space junk is a largely legacy of mindless destroying of satellites with ASAT missiles by "the powers that be" and occasional failed/experimental satellites/crafts. Like @Guynextdoor2 pointed, most modern...

    India killing un wanted civilians in name of forest conservation. A technical genocide

    Not to mention, it was the colonial Brits who hunted hundreds of species to their extinction in the first place. They should be the last ones to lecture us how to protect our precious flora and fauna.

    India killing un wanted civilians in name of forest conservation. A technical genocide

    There is a reason why India, despite being home to 1.3 Billion people, is also home to both lions and tigers in the wild. The ONLY country in the world to do so. There is a reason, why our tiger populations are increasing whereas other countries have seen their numbers decimated. The flora and...

    BMD tested successfully

    I think people here are missing the point. That is - any reasonably functional ABM puts the doubt in the minds of the offender. The offender no longer enjoys the certainty of his missile doing the job 100% of the time. It doesn't change even if the missile is highly maneuverable MIRV, there is...

    Top US think tanks ask Trump to go tough on Pakistan

    Got to give it to these guys - Running with the hare and hunting with the hounds. And on top of that, asking for payment for renting their soldiers. These people took billions of $ just to get OBL. They would have milked the US for a decade and would have continued doing so indefinitely had the...
