Re: Telangana Monitor

Chidamabaram's answer to a reporter's question was pretty innocuous. All he said was the process for forming the committee is nearly final. This is being overead into by the Telugu media, and translated as the process for Telangana is nearly final. All he said was the committee formation is nearly ...

Re: Telangana Monitor

Could someone explain why Teleganãs who speak the same language and have the same culture (?) go against being one? Funny people! Telangana / Andhra / Rayalaseem language is spoken different. The script is same...the dialect or the speech pattern is different. Culturally they are also at a slight v...

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP) - Dec 30 - 2009

I don't see this part of the statement in any of the DDM newspapers. Why hide the actual mentality of thes...

Re: Terrorist Islamic Republic of Pakistan (TSP) - Dec 30 - 2009

Paki non selection in IPL 3 is purely business decision. Lalit Modi (and by extension BCCI, by extension GoI) did its best to accommodate the Paki players. They twice extended the deadlines for submission (recall the players where in NZ tour). I do not see any GoI hand in giving magic pointers to an...

Re: Redrawing State Boundaries

Almost a month into the crisis, we should summarize the various factors in play at this time. To me it looks like its an inside INC problem. From scuttlebutt, if Telangana forms the largest beneficiary would be CBN. I can see the INC issue, however benefit for CBN escapes me. Could you please expla...

Re: INS Arihant (ATV) News and Discussion -2

Pakistanis do not seem to understand that Arihant is not relevant to them-they are never going to be in the same league-this is how big boys play. How to break it to them gently? I think "some" Pakis have realized we have moved beyond them. This leaves them empty and thus are confused and...
