Jammu And Kashmir poll result leaves Pak media cold and Pak Leader’s Confused


Jammu And Kashmir poll result leaves Pak media cold and Pak Leader’s Confused

From Times of India:

For a country obsessed with the K word, the Pakistan English media was spectacularly reticent on the outcome of the Jammu and Kashmir election. Newspapers either ignored it or dismissed it in small news items. The Dawn on Monday carried a small 218-word report by Reuters from Srinagar headlined, No clear winner in Kashmir polls. “A period of uncertainty was expected before a coalition was cobbled together,” the report said. Pakistan may now be the single biggest state sponsor of terrorism, beyond even Iran. Yet it has never been listed by the US State Department as a state sponsor of terrorism.

Read Full Story Here:

Well this is very much expected at least by me. Their whole bizarre media industry is busy in running down anti-India propaganda so how the hell is possible for them to show the truth about Indian democracy? They just can’t show to their people a truth about Indian Kashmir and what people of Kashmir in India think about Indian democracy.

It’s a bitter truth and hard to swallow because many Pakistani leader’s who are busy in running their bread and butter shop on the basis of Kashmir issue will find it real hard to digest that Jammu and Kashmir people had reject separatist call for elections boycott and came out to show faith in Indian democracy. Yes we have counted more that 60% turn around and this 60% voting is very hard for Pakistani leadership to digest.

Well I can understand their point of not digesting this fact that people of Jammu and Kashmir did came out to show faith in Indian democracy because if they digest this truth then Pakistan will have to suffer from many job losses as their terrorist (death) industry will go bankrupt and Jihadi’s will have no work (There is an entire jihad industry in Pakistan today which survives on Islamic causes like that in Kashmir, Palestine, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Chechnya among others)of killings innocent Kashmiris in the name of religion and nation theory.

Pakistan is the single biggest state sponsor of terrorism and world largest exporter of terrorism.

Their whole theory of survival is based on hate and jealousy, because of these ghastly policies, they have made the Muslims in South Asia insecure and whole south east region a hub of terrorist activity. They just can’t digest success of India especially when it’s come to Kashmir issue. People of Jammu and Kashmir like everyone in India, enjoy our democracy, participate in elections and does hold faith in Indian establishment. Kashmiri’s in India could have more normal life and could be living a peaceful life had Pakistan followed some humanity path not the terror path and killing, terrorizing kashmiri’s in the name of religion and nation theory.

These elections and voting results shows that India is winning the allegiance of local’s of Jammu and Kashmir and this is not good sign for mentally bankrupt Pakistan Media and Pakistan Leadership. Pakistan is The Capital of Lie and false propoganda.

No Future for the low-cost airline in India?


No future for the low-cost airline in India?

From Livemint

India is not a suitable country for low-cost airline operations as it not only lacks infrastructure like low-cost secondary airports but also the cost of their staff is at par with full service carriers (FSC), a study has claimed. Also, the low fare carriers (LFCs) have to face tough competition from Indian Railways and road transport for destinations of shorter durations. “India has very few secondary airports from which the low fare carriers could operate. Of the 127 airports with the Airports Authority of India, only 80 are operational,” aerospace expert Harmoz P Mama claimed in a study ‘Civil Aviation in India : Challenges and Prospects´.

Read Full Report Here:

Yes this is right because the low-cost tariff model for an airline business in India is suffering lack of infrastructure. We don’t have2nd tier airports to cater low cost airlines, means all fees (airport charges for Airlines) are the same for both regular full service airlines and low-cost airline. Low-cost airlines reduce fares by cutting in-flight service and making use of cheaper airports or we can say 2nd tier airports. But in India we don’t have any tier 2 airports to cater these discounted carriers like we have in Europe and USA a major market for Low-Cost Airlines. Government should make some plans for the development of a separate terminal (No frills airport) for these carriers and should do more in order to promote budget air travel. If we really care and if India really needs this Low-Cost Airlines then government should put focus on infrastructure development which is a major requirement for this aviation industry and for also better economy health.

Jammu and Kashmir Assembly Election : Kashmiri Pandits fail to win a single seat

From The Hindu

Jammu (PTI): For the first time, the Jammu and Kashmir assembly will have no Kashmiri Pandit members as all 47 candidates, including former minister Raman Mattoo, lost the elections. “It is for the first time in the history of Jammu and Kashmir that not even a single KP candidate could occupy a berth in the Jammu and Kashmir assembly,” all party migrant coordination committee (APMCC) Chairman Vinood Pandit said. Former Industries minister in the previous Congress-PDP coalition government, Raman Mattoo, lost to Shimeema Firdos of National Conference in Habbakadal assembly seat. In 2002, Mattoo had defeated Firdos from the same constituency.

Perhaps I would say Kashmir’s Pundit’s didn’t lose but democracy did. I don’t know honestly what to say about this news but, After all things happens in Jammu and Kashmir from Amarnath yatra row till major separatist movement uprising in Jammu and Kashmir in recent months, I would have preferred to have a every community represented (from separatist to Pundits), in the assembly to make sure that every community is represented at every level in the decision making process, so that a much needed peace and stability can be bring in this beautiful state. Anyway now the results are out so no complaints really it’s an election some people win and some loose but whoever has won Hindu, Sikh or Muslim they have huge responsibility on their shoulder to deliver this time. They have to make sure that interest of all the people, community and religion living in Jammu and Kashmir should be taken care with honesty and dignity.

Gujarat ministers, MLAs New Year Treats: Likely to get 25% pay hike


Gujarat ministers, MLAs New Year Treats: Likely to get 25% pay hike

While the people of Indian’s are suffering from recession, job loss and economic crisis our so called leaders are treating themselves by hiking their own salary and that also at par with Government class 1 Officers. Unbelievable.

From Time of India:

At a time when private companies and corporate houses are planning to cut costs, the Gujarat government has proposed a 25 per cent increase in salaries of MLAs and ministers, sources in the government said.  The new pay scale, at par with those of Class I officers, will come into effect from April 2009, sources said.  “In 2005, we had passed a bill in the state assembly by which pay scales of MLAs and ministers have been brought at par with a Class I government servant,” state assembly speaker Ashok Bhatt said.

Read Full Story:

In times of recession, there should be no pay hike, perks for Indian leaders. It’s a time to tight the belt of all politicians and bureaucrats. Like corporate and big companies are busy in cost cutting our government should all do the same instead of treating all leaders for doing nothing.

Pakistan track record responsible for India’s lack of faith: Fatima Bhutto


Pakistan track record responsible for India’s lack of faith: Fatima Bhutto

Not only are Indian Government and Senior administration officials rushing out to the world saying that We can’t Trust Pakistan and Its leader’s  but some prominent Pakistani’s people are saying same thing that “Pakistan track record responsible for India’s lack of faith”.  Fatima Bhutto niece of Slain former premier Benazir Bhutto’s wrote in a column for ‘Al-Jazeera’ that

From Yahoo.com:

Given the government’s track record, one can understand India’s lack of faith in Pakistan’s justice system,” she wrote in the piece titled, “S Asian neighbours’ linked destinies. The Mumbai attacks, gruesome in nature and planning, have already been given a 9/11 nomenclature – 11/26. That is how many in Mumbai now refer to the violent siege of their city. While the world watches and waits for answers, and for those responsible to be condemned.” “Pakistan’s government has provided little assurance that peace will prevail between the two countries in the coming year,” Read Full Story Here:

She is quite right and bold enough to accept the truth. It is very true that Pakistan track record of tackling terrorist organisation within Pakistan is a biggest joke of this century. From War on terrorism till today Pakistan has done nothing to prove that they are strong enough, honest enough in clearing out the mess of terrorists and terrorist organisation operating within Pakistan.

All worlds knows that all the terrorist organisation based in Pakistan is only surviving because Pak’s Army and ISI wants them to survive and use them time to time to kill Indian’s and make India unstable country, but unfortunately they had failed till now in their motives.  Secondly I guess it’s a defining characteristics of this country leader’s was its shamelessness. All over world people knows, Pakistan Administration knows that terrorist organisation based in Pakistan is responsible for Mumbai Massacre but Pakistan policy of keep denial and keep protecting their own home grown terror babies is what keeping South Asia region in chaos.

Unless Pakistan change its attitude and show genuine approach in tackling with these terrorists ‘ No One will have faith in Them and in their Leader’s.

Indians told Pakistan ‘Not Safe’: A sensible move by Government of India


Indians told Pakistan ‘Not Safe’: A sensible move by Government of India

From Times of India:

India on Friday warned its citizens against travelling to Pakistan, in a step designed to thwart dirty tricks from Pakistan which on Wednesday had tried to blame a blast in Lahore on an alleged Indian spy. The alert was sounded even as Islamabad’s Lahore frame-up came unstuck with a little-known Taliban outfit based in North Waziristan, Ansar Wa Mohajir, stepping up to claim responsibility for the December 24 blast.

Read Full Story Here: A sensible move by our government. Yesterday government of India made a very sensible and smart decision by issuing warnings to its citizens against travelling to Pakistan. As Pakistan is involved in dirty politics and arresting Indian citizens on false propaganda in order to divert international pressure, it would be better for Indians not to travel Pakistan till Pakistan genuinely shows its right approach in tackling its home grown death industry (terrorist organization).

A Revolutionary Change: Dalits (untouchables) defy Hindu Ban, Enter temple


A Revolutionary Change: Dalits (untouchables) defy Hindu Ban, Enter temple

From Times of India:

MADURAI: After a decade-long struggle, Dalits at Panthapuli village in Tirunelveli district entered the Kannanallur Mariamman temple with help of district officials defying a ban imposed by caste Hindus. Dalits, led by district collector G.Prakash and Superintendent of Police Asra Garg, entered the temple at Panthapuli near Sankarankovil on Wednesday. Though the caste Hindus resented the entry, they did not, however, make any effort to resist the move, apparently due to a stern warning issued by Prakash.

Read Full Story Here: We need this sort of revolutionary change more and more so we can put an end on this shame legacy of our society once for all.  Please do it more and Do it all over India, Remember everyone is equals in our society and in eyes of God too.

Secondly it is sickening that we still continue to describe some people (or should I call our own citizens of India) among us as Dalits, and Untouchables and it is very unfortunate that our national government and some national media too legitimize this label of discrimination for many reasons (that we can discuss it later). We don’t need words like Dalits, Untouchables in our Indian society. It’s just a shame that even today Caste System still occupies an important place in the Hindu religion.

If Hindu society wants to survive then it’s high time to time to stop discrimination (Dalits, Untouchables) from our society and start treating everyone equally….
