Re: India's R&D in Defence DRDO, PSUs and Private Sector

There are forces against the local industry developing. Here are some interesting facts: 1. India is the #1 country with close to $1.4 trillion stashed away in Swiss Bank accounts. Russia is next with only $450 billion stashed away. Remember, the Swiss Bank is only 1 out of 70 tax havens in the worl...

Re: J & K news and discussion

The assumption here is that Pak Army is paying these people to shout and shoot. If Hindus in Bihar are getting paid that way as well, then the GoI has to negate that as well. The question is what is being done to snatch the purse strings out of these uneducated Kashmiris. If they are going to keep g...

Re: J & K news and discussion

The way Pakistan works is: - Pakistan Army establishes all these businesses and run its own companies and uses profits from them to fuel the war machine, proxy wars etc. It is only minimally reliant on Pakistan government's budget. - It let in Saudi Arabia and its Wahabi style madrassah brainwashing...

Re: J & K news and discussion

Yes, re-education and fresh indoctrination about "living a better life, in a better world" by being in the armed reserves is a must. Favorable home loans, education loans, food supply, health insurance, free haj trips on military planes etc. should be provided in turn for signing up to be ...

Re: Pune Bomb Blast - 13 Feb 2010

More than the change in governments, I think it is important to examine the structure and process of intelligence briefings the PM reads and acts upon. Is the final decision taken by one man or a committee? Who prepares the daily briefings, if at all they are daily? What kind of ATR (action taken re...

Re: J & K news and discussion

Other solutions: 1. A forced military draft in the state and recruit all these youths as a reserve force. All you need to do is some tough discipline and self worth training for 2 to 3 years. An Israel like mandatory army training could be imposed. 2. Develop J&K quickly so that people who want ...

Re: J & K news and discussion

Consider this Indian national and resident of Jammu and Kashmir http://marypmadigan.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/rageboy.jpg Is rational discussion possible with this sort? Or should people just laugh and move on? I think most of the agitations are from the poorest sections of the society. Just as w...

Re: Pune Bomb Blast - 13 Feb 2010

In the article, it says that someone opened an unattended package. Does this point to a casual attitude which has not translated into: "see something, say something"? Perhaps, a lot more public education is required about exercising caution in crowded places, social gatherings, keeping an ...

Investment in Homeland security technologies becomes paramount. Indo-Israeli cooperation in mass producing HS technologies for a number of cities and integration of police databases becomes urgent now.

Re: NRI Investment in India and R2I Financial Concerns

Hi all: I just joined this forum though I have been reading here for a while. I am an NRI based in NY City. I wanted to ask: is it better to build out commerical/residential buildings and rent them out or just sell the land and profit from it. I have come into inheritance and wanted to see if I coul...
