    Wishes to the coming defence minister!

    I think one important aspect would be to ensure that battle preparedness is ensured at all times. One of the most disturbing aspects in UPA 2 tenure was government dragging its feet on almost all issues. Some of critical inventories for the forces have dwindles to dangerously low levels and new...

    Ban Gayi Modi Sarkar!!!!!!!!

    Modi has come to power with a promise of growth and stability. & remember back in 1999, AB Vajpayee (from BJP) was the first PM to come to pakistan with Lahore Delhi Bus. BJP in center doesn't necessarily mean rise in tension, on the contrary the relations may improve between the nations.

    Ban Gayi Modi Sarkar!!!!!!!!

    IMHO congress lost much before general elections when arrogance of power and an crazy ambition to project its VP as its face disconnected the party from ground realities. I don't have data right now, but a poll on NDTV yesterday indicated more youth have voted for Modi that a certain 40+ year...

    Ban Gayi Modi Sarkar!!!!!!!!

    Now is the moment to savor. As Amit Shah remarked, Congress couldn't open its account in 7 states. The best part of this victory (which makes it even sweeter) is the fact that that the composition laves little room for allies or opposition to blackmail/ arm twist government. With this...

    Rafale deal: Antony refuses govt guarantee to France

    IAF has been voicing its concern for so long now. Isn't it a shame that a demand which was raised way back in 2000-01 (for Mirage 2000), even after seeing 2 govt changes (& 3rd one soon) is till to be fulfilled. Agreed that big bucks are involved & such decisions take a while, but why can't GoI...

    Are India's Railway engines indigenous?

    That actually is the trend through out the world. As far as electric locos are concerned two giants Siemens and Alsthom are the ones who have developed next generation machines and these owing to the fact that they have quite a bit of flexibility in terms of adaptation to supply voltages (OHE)...

    WDG 5 as per my info is still under RDSO trials. The loco is essentially SD80MAC and hence should be successful. however as of now we will keep on seeing 4,500 HP versions of WDG 4 and WDP 4Ds only.

    After 10 years as PM, Manmohan Singh's legacy to go down like Narasimha Rao?

    MMS at best was a smoke screen used by UPA (particularly UPA 2) to hide what was going on in the name of stable government and appeasement of coalition partners. Don't know if we will ever get to know the true scale of corruption and the damage it caused to nation, but rest assured this govt...
