Bharat Rakshak

Second Sunrise of Indian Jihad - Praveen Swami, The Hindu The title was startling. Slowly, the idea of a jihad in India is finding honourable mention in headlines of mainstream newspapers, thus revealing the spread of this menace. IMHO, this often arises from lack of awareness on the part of journa...

http://indianexpress.com/article/opinion/columns/no-surprises-in-pakistan/ What has been stated in BRF, but for the reiteration of US officials lack of trust on Pakis. Current SOPs given to Pukis may not be just a leverage to get out of Afghanistan with H&D for uncle. It is also to retain the re...

A french restaurant in Pakistan does not allow Pakistanis in it!

Indian Mujahideen wanted to nuke Surat, Yasin Bhatkal tells cops I tend to think that it is more of a calculated mis-information to send the investigating agencies on a wild goose chase. Most agents / spies are taught how to confuse the investigators with such stories if they are caught. The proble...

As if on cue: Indian Mujahideen wanted to nuke Surat, Yasin Bhatkal tells cops Bhatkal told the interrogators that he had asked his Pakistan-based boss, Riyaz Bhatkal, over phone whether the latter could arrange a small "nuclear bomb". According to him, Riyaz responded, "Anything can...

It was "the straw that broke the camel's back" where: 1. US DoS did not respond to MEA about removal of signage at the Indian embassy in Washington where a Times Square type bomber could park a vehicle. 2. Repeated harassment of Indian diplomats in New York over the last few years; and if...

1. I'm concerned that DK's spouse is a US citizen and she gets posted to the US. I would have imagined that the diplomatic corps of any country would have restrictions on diplomats marrying/ having a relationship with a foreigner and even when permitted, care would be taken that that diplomat does ...

Agree that developing a new OS from scratch is not a very practical idea for several reasons, even though it does offer some security advantages. If DRDO requires a real time OS for missiles, etc., they can build one on top of existing open source Linux based distributions. I do remember DRDO attemp...

An apology is not enough,India and Devyani should demand a massive amount in compensation for her illegal treatment based upon erroneous US assessment of the case. But what also stinks is the mentality of the "Ugly American",exemplified by the sh*tworms of the State Dept. Here is the TOI ...

HAL is not known for efficiency. My friend interviewed IIT Aeronautical engineering grads and one of the questions is why not seek employment in HAL instead of moving over to software. Aside from the pay, the primary reason cited is the bureaucracy and inefficiency at HAL. ISRO seems to have a much ...

1)Is it same when Rajat Gupta was made an example in insider trading (which in massa stock brokering industry is to this day as common as STDs in p*rn industry) ? 2)Is it the same when juvenile Dharun Ravi was made an example to satisfy the LGBT lobby(whose "liberal" outrage against Mr Si...

sraj Yes. There is double standard in US argument. Indian argument / narrative got diluted with all sorts of crazy conspiracy theories and multiple arguments. India is right in pointing out the inconsistency in US stand where their local laws supersede international conventions which they expect acc...

There are several things Indian government can do to improve Indo-Japan trade and bilateral relations. The first thing India desperately needs is to close the fast widening technological and infrastructure gap between India and economically developed world (including China). We should have in-depth ...

Exactly, in the Neena Malhotra case there is the precedence of an Indian court ruling which stated that the US has no right to determine what the pay of the maids of Indian diplomats should be (based on Vienna convention). So it is ultimately a differing interpretation of Vienna convention from bot...

Some fellows it seems cannot take a contrary view point and resort to name calling of anyone that has a contrary viewpoint. I am going to ignore those as it serves no purpose.

Lilo-ji, I am also outraged at what I consider as inhuman / barbaric practices of US judicial system. It was clear in my post even though I tried to take a full balanced view of the whole saga. I am also surprised as to why no US media personnel took up the issue of mandatory strip search to introsp...

The fact that India is the country with the highest number of human trafficking related visas --- is this a fact? It was my surprising find when I went though US visa statistics by country and visa type. You can see for it yourself. Check page 10 of http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/FY12AnnualReport-...

I arrive at two possibilities (reality could be a combination of both) all of which are very straight forward and nothing fancy like the conspiracy theorists would like to believe: 1. Maid abuse by DK: 2. Maid is a blackmailer and exaaggerated to gain Immigration status for her and her family: Dear...

Dear B-R members, This is my first post here, even though I have been a regular reader for past few years. Hello to everyone! :) This would be a slightly longer post.. pls bear with me. My 2 paisa on this whole Devyani saga: Before saying what I think actually happened, it is imperative to debunk so...
