Great news! Lets roll with Kat!!

Mind blowing post by Karan!

A post about the Kaveri too please!

Couldn't stop the nitpick...but the incident in March 2006 can't be 'again' after 2008 or 2009 incidents.

Nevertheless, it's sad to see the team disbanded and not see the tricolor in the sky for some time.

Brazil not only reevaluating the final 3 but also whether it needs to buy a fighter now!

The website allows you to filter on keywords (say, suicide attack) and if you do that its seems that most of these soldiers were killed in suicide attacks (I infer carried out by the Taliban) in Pakistan. Maybe this soldier was brought to Delhi for medical treatment and not part of a suicide attack ...

Let's not forget the PLA Navy. With a base in Gwadar they can blockade oil supplies from the Gulf and even threaten our western coast. So while the IA will have to deal with I guess the Chengdu and Lanzhou military regions that border us, the navy too will have its hands full.

I saw 'Terror in Mumbai' yesterday. The scenes at VT, recounts by survivors and the cell phone calls with the controllers in TSP made me sad, angry, frustrated ... We know what needs to be done within the country (e.g., building capabilities, improving reaction times of paramilitary and medical pers...
