Just saw the clip of Prannoy Roy, didn't hear anything, but Roy's physical appearance is a mess. He also seems casual instead of being formal.

That's unbelievable, even then Rajnath goes ahead and appoints him. That too for such sensitive portfolio as MHA. Congis and Congi chamchas should be avoided like plague in the new administration.

Shashi tharoor's smug smile and his ridiculous brit accent needs to be given reality check with investigation in to his wife's death. It's mind boggling the guy with murder and funding scam is walking around speaking and pontificating as if he's still in power. What gives him so much confidence and ...

Congress goons are after Smriti because she challenged Pappu and almost successfully.

No one in media is discussing Sonia's education except reporting what Uma Bharati and Santosh Gangwar said. They are talking about other leaders and ministers education but not Sonia.

AkshayM

Why is Sonia in first row along with other heads of state?

If Ahmed Patel is out of the background means two things, one family handlers have given up now and accepted Modi government and two, they are packing up. Now that Modi has shown that they will be paid back in kind and with interest, Sonia, Priyanka and Rahul may now go avoid direct attacks as they ...

Looks like the BJP leadership is confident on other areas and they are going for the kill, extending the seat lead to as much as possible that's why focus on Tamil Nadu.

AkshayM

Modi has given more governance ideas in last 60 days than Congress in last 60 years

mwaaahhhaaaaa

That nitish kumar and his Bihar government is culpable for lack of security, there is no doubt. Based on above Gujarat police report.

AkshayM

Did IB reveal the IM terror suspect quickly to not allow Congress, NIA and CBI hijack the debate on who the real perpetrators are behind bomb blasts? It will be important to reveal the Congress MP whose number was found on the bomb blast suspect.

AkshayM

I thought it was the same Rajesh Jain, so glad to know he is indeed the one.

He hired me in my first gig in software. The startup he had cofounded before indiaworld portal.

AkshayM

One of the most effective thing that Modi is bringing to the debate is the stark difference between him/BJP and Congress. So far the Congress-paid media has been successful in "all political parties are corrupt", "all politicians are same" mealy mouth narrative that confuses the ...

I was there just couple weeks back. On my part, I've been telling everyone I know in India to go out and vote and vote for a change. It is chaos and anarchy if it goes out of hand. It is clear state machinery and inaction/inability of law enforcement is aiding and abetting these crimes with no assur...

I wish somehow we can get the script of the TV serial Chanakya in word form either in Hindi or English.* The great thing about the serial is shows the evolution of Vishnugupta's thinking on strategy and how he synthesizes the teachings of earlier preceptors and adapts them to his times. * I have th...

By the way, Khan likes what it sees in NaMo. Not only capable administrator but strong leader. That is key, NaMo has core principles and does not yield to pressures. Khan has probably concluded that upa2 is a goner and preparing for who is coming in.

AkshayM

Secular terrorists have no recourse anymore. NaMo has fundamental public support that cannot be influenced. The regurgitating of the past will not yield media, Rahul and Sonia Gandhi and other sundry vultures anything anymore.

The world of Bollywood as seen through American diplomatic eyes http://www.hindu.com/2011/04/22/stories/2011042254881100.htm There is no mention of underworld connection cables in the article. This shows how strong underworld is connected to media as well. No one talks about how they are connected ...

Part of the English pirate expeditions was response of the crown to spain expanding and enriching through south american conquest. Initial Caribbean settling was part piracy. The english then realized with more power and boots they could expand and colonize. All according to Niall Ferguson's decline...

Was Dey in his latest material on Dawood able to dig up detailed politician connections? In that case, they would have more benefit of his killing than even Dawood. I'd think all politicians that come out "expressing shock" are direct beneficiaries of Dey's murder. So far Bhujbal and Sonia...

AkshayM

@ramana, most likely Bhujbal also knew that Dey is going to be tapkaoed (killed). It is likely that Dey may have received threats as well from the gang. I hope he made arrangements to back up and spread his writings. It is ironic that in Indian polity it is difficult to find even one non-criminal, n...

US threw a bone to Pakis with this verdict. Indirectly all terror attacks on India is fine. India will just benefit from collateral downing of terror masterminds. The good terrorism (on India) and bad terrorism (US+West) game will go on. It is clear US went out of its way to exclude Mumbai terror at...

Unfortunately nothing much will happen. Swami Ramdev is eloquent and has mass appeal. It's learning process for him now to go through Congress thuggery. Many in India perhaps don't know but this is the real face of political party especially Congress. People here say that electorate is smart but I'm...

I don't think ramana is asking for definitions of those terms but scenarios under which these may occur and ensuing impact. - Rising interest rates Easily not happening until 2012. I'm talking about Fed funds rate (the short term interest rate). Fed is allowing easy money for banks to recoup much ne...

IMO folks knew (somewhere deep down perhaps) what they were doing when they went on a CDS buying binge. They were hedging all right, but not their particular risk against a counterparty. Rather they were hitching their particular risk to systemic stability and thereby hedging their losses against g...

As a study subject there is nothing wrong with economics. It is the economists and analysts that either get it wrong, gloss over or ignore the fundamentals. The subject of economics provides fundamental framework to work with. Rest is up to the user of that framework. One of the thing that happened ...

AkshayM

That is not to say there were not others, lowly or otherwise, who saw that the fundamentals were amiss. To me, blowing up of LTCM was that.

AkshayM

the lesson being that the higher ups have no great wisdom or foresight Without getting in to the merit of YVR's foresight, I will agree with above. And lot of it can be attributed to simple psychological dimensions like hubris, ideological, jealousy, boneheaded, personal enrichment, devoid of moral...

AkshayM

Hari, I don't think lot of people understand the CDSs and how it does not really serve the hedging purpose. If the party selling the CDS cannot pay up when default occurs what is the point of buying such CDS? And the institutions were buying by the boatloads of CDS without ever thinking if the count...

The repeal of Glass-Steagall was more due to steadfast belief in "free markets" and "market efficiency" primarily by Alan Greenspan. The ongoing economic expansion mostly with easy credit reinforced the ideology that markets were efficient to the extent that Greenspan would have ...

By the way, it is not funny how the financial crisis in the US is similar to that of Japan. Japanase banks were loaded with bad loans. They did not write it off, they did very little to raise capital, they did not sell themselves, no restructuring of any kind, just more loans to pay for those loans....

ramana, It is extraordinary in scope and sinisterness the way the WS (Wall Street) has been bailed out. What is even more peculiar is the way GS has been beneficiary in the entire saga.

Under the Fractional Reserve Banking (FRB) system, regular pvt banks and not central banks were the ones minting credit that looks like money and injecting untold loads into the system. At the most fundamental level, private banks have the deposits to lend and create credit. The only other way is t...

Re: Bear Stearns I'm reading a book recollecting the March free fall of BS and in the back of my mind I kept thinking Goldman. It is entirely possible that hedge funds led a three pronged attack that immensely added fuel to the fire and took up a notch all the virulent rumors about Bear Stearns liqu...
