@Prometheus can you provide some information on identity of recently inducted former akali MLA Balbir Singh Bath. Is that true he was close friend of butcher Poohla Nihang ?

Not sure of posted earlier, glad this isnt being put up with anymore:

Well Done ; Indian Army barges into Mosque for playing anti-India Slogans and Songs on Loudspeakers

I'm disappointed by Army's behaviour here. They should have been beaten to pulp and then arrested before being treated.

Reasons for Bihar to leave the Indian Union and form an independent state, courtesy of USER :thrownwa on reddit:

1. Deliberate central policies to hurt economic prospects of Bihar: We all know the story of freight equalization policy that was used by GoI to steal the mineral wealth of Bihar and larger eastern India. Under this policy the transportation cost of selected minerals was subsidized by the central government which meant that any mineral included in this list will be available at the same price anywhere in India. The natural location advantage enjoyed by Eastern States was thus denied and the industries went to financially rich coastal regions of west and south. Had this policy not been in place many industries would have set-up their factories in Eastern India. Interestingly minerals that are found in western or southern India like oil from Mumbai-high were conveniently excluded from this list. Talk about double whammy. According to one estimate, Bihar lost Rs 1,12,812 crore just through the freight-equalization of steel alone. In the name of curing 'regional imbalance' and fostering 'equality' south-Indian industrialist and then finance minister T T Krishnamachari enacted this policy. The same notion of equality that was once used to discriminate against Biharis is now invoked to deny Bihar the special status. One wonders how little has changed both in terms of rhetoric and intention in all these years.
   
   
2. Differential and discriminatory public spending allocation for Bihar to impede it's growth: Anyone even vaguely familiar with policy-science would recognize the positive role played by government spending in region's macroeconomy. When we compare planned allocation for Bihar with the developed states such as Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat and Maharashtra, it becomes clear that Bihar has been systematically deprived of funds. Gujarat, Maharashtra and Haryana received per capita allocation of more than double that of Bihar during the entire plan period. Thus we see Bihar was not poor it was made poor and it was kept poor.
   
   
3. State-sponsored violence against Biharis: People from Bihar are routinely targeted outside of Bihar by members of ruling party, opposition and general public. Instrument of law-enforcement is used to extort money from them and their vulnerability in alien-country is exploited to deny them their proper wages. Often drugs and other dangerous substances are used to make them work longer hour. In the worst case they are also murdered as different events show. All these go with the help of silent and active consent of respective states.
   
   
4. Historical, cultural, linguistic, religious and other reasons: Bihar has always been an independent nation of its own. Even when it included other regions, sovereignty flowed from Bihar and not the other way round . Present union thus by and large has no precedence in history. Culturally Bihar and let's say Gujarat are as similar as day and night. In the same vain Bihar's unique linguistic, cultural and religious heritage which have only been mocked till now today face complete annihilation. Some Biharis have even been made to think that Bihar is somehow burden to India when in fact the reality is completely reverse.

Bro what is your opinion of Nitish Kumar and Laloo?

We all know very well the looting of Bihar by scamgress for 50+ years under the guise of socialism etc etc.

But Biharis at some point have to give BJP a solid chance to set things right.

Biharis elected Lalu again. I doubt anyone cares for cries of a state that elects a crimal to be in charge of them..
May be this person should stop drinking too much liquor and posting. Never know when his own Bihari babu nitishwa will put all his family, friends and neighbours in jail for this one person drinking.

You have not responded to any of the points.

Your questions are similar to 'Have you stopped raping your neighbours pig?'

I am sorry but we normal humans don't have answers to such questions...Only people who can respond are the same intellectuals who elected a person like Lallu, who is convicted by courts. You should approach them. They will give you great answers..

 

[Sky lord]

My statement still stands: You have not responded to any of the points.

But these are not your questions . You just plagiarized them from here.

https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/4drrp2/state_of_the_week_bihar/d1x2ej7?context=3

You are a false flagger. You couldn't even come up with your own questions.




Oh ...and here is the answer someone gave on the same page...if only you had read a little further down!

1. Technically, freight equalization policy was bad for the area which is currently in Jharkhand as Bihar hardly has any minerals. It can also be argued that Bihar ruled Jharkhand as internal colony before partition. Even today Jharkhand is reeling from its aftereffects. for example, despite having largest coal reserves, jharkhand is a power deficit state as the largest power plants were set up in Bihar (Barh and Kahalgaon) based on coal of jharkhad
2. Bihar has immense potential for agriculture, causes for its backwardness also lie in underdeveloped agriculture sector. Land reforms were not carried out when they should have been, sufficient funds were not invested in improving technology, and centre and state both are to be blamed for it
3. Though there is violence against biharis in many parts of the country but it is not "only" against biharis but many "outsiders" (peoples from north east, south India). Moreover if you take that as argument what about the violence amongst biharis in bihar. intercaste and other violence inside bihar are many magnitude higher than what happens outside
4. Bihar was never an "independent nation" it has been part of empires, some of them have been based in bihar but that does not mean it was an independent nation
5. linguistically and culturally many regions in India are as different as "night and day" but that does not mean they cant be part of the same nation, i this context indian nationalism differs from narrower definitions of nationalism in europe

 

[Sky lord]

Read my post, I never plagiarised them, I gave credit at the top. Nice try though
You should probably look up the meaning of plagiarism because you clear have a grave misunderstanding.

Ah yes ..so you did in the corner...I missed it.

the answers are on the same page so read them and go to sleep.

Just wow...I thought I was reading a joke. What kind of a person can come up with that kind of a crap?
And more importantly what kind of a publication would endorse such a crap!!

If this is the intellectual capacity of Leftists, I am afraid their days are numbered.

Did not expert such a clarity of thought from some one belonging to VHP but this guy is spot on...
Why can't RW get more of these fellows into mainstream to debate their issues is beyond me!

Narendra Modi not first to talk about Balochistan, UPA did it too: Congress

http://indianexpress.com/article/in...-balochistan-upa-did-it-too-congress-2979150/

Yes right Manmohan singh said "We will look into your concern of India's involvement in Baluchistan " at a time when we are in mid of exposing pakstain's duplicity to the world regarding the Mumbai attack . No wonder Pakistani's always wanted a congress government in the center

Writing off huge loans to Industrialists like Adani & Ambani costs lot of money to India, which is then adjusted from Petrol price hike - Middle class gets fooked up under Modi raj.

Congress flip-flop over PM's Baloch remarks

....a rather critical response from ex-external affairs minister Salman Khurshid. Khurshid, who received brickbats from the BJP for his diplomatic handling of Pakistan, took to cautioning the Modi government that it would give Islamabad an “additional handle” and that’s the reason why “we don’t speak about atrocities in neighbouring countries”.
However, a top-level call from the government side to the Congress leadership had the party distancing itself from Khurshid’s position.

Randeep Singh Surjewala, the party’s communication chief, was made to give an unscheduled briefing to contradict Khurshid’s view as “purely personal”. In a complete about-turn, Surjewala said: “We at the Congress feel, Pakistan’s continued and appalling violation of human rights in Balochistan is a matter of grave concern to us and India should be raising the issue not just bilaterally but in all possible multi-lateral fora.”

Meanwhile, non-Congress, opposition leaders were a bit cautious about backing the government’s aggressive posture vis-a-vis Pakistan.

India is a laggard in Internet speed, kind of squats in the open field as far as the world net speed is concerned, also security wise, India is vulnerable (recent DD4BS attack) and Modi does nothing to increase the net speed = Will lose most middle class youngsters votes in 2019.
