I found that Kasi Vishwanath temple was - First destroyed by Qutubuddin Aibek - The rebuilt temple was destroyed by Razia Sultana and a masjid built - Maharaja of Jaipur rebuilt the temple that was destroyed by Aurangazeb - Maharani Ahalyabhai Holkar built the current Kasi Vishwanath Temple. I am w...

NaMo is the biggest supporter of greater devolution of power to states. He is the last person to go for an overly centralized, dictatorial model. If he worked Chinese style, people of Gujarat would not have re-elected him. Actually, ironically enough, the Chinese economic revolution was also caused...

Vivek saar, purchased through Pothi and have read it twice already..........my congrats on an awesome read! BTW, have put repeat orders as well- to both spread the jingoism and boost sales...........promise to do the same for the next one.......keep it coming! Also, don't want to do a spoiler here f...

The story of bones is about Sage Dadhichi - he gave up his life so Indra could fashion the trishul (vajrayudha)from his spinal cord to kill Vritasura It is also reflected in the Param Vir Chakra medallion- signifying self-sacrifice for a great cause The medallion was designed by a foreigner IIRC....

Once CHina-made is dominant enough and China cancel the endorsement on US dollar, people can not buy enough industry_products with USD dollar any more and the dominance of USD will collapse overnight.

....the current paradigm changes from deficits to settlements?

Sorry, Panduranghari ji, not sure I understand?

Deficits and surplus are conjoined twins, so both must exist simultaneously (in different national accounts of course)...........what do you refer to as "settlements" please?

2. In a mid run or long run, RMB would inevitablly replace USD as main trade currency in the world. RMB will replace USD as the main trade currency if and ONLY if 1. the Chinese consumer market becomes the largest in the world 2. China becomes the world's largest IMPORTER 3. Other nations have &quo...

Bhailog, the BJP donate website (donate.bjp.org) is working again, please to donate in full measure

Adrija

The gameplan for CongI is to spark communal riots using BJP as an excuse, so that the "middle class/ economic growth/youth looking for jobs" crowd is alienated and made to vote CongI as "BJP will be too hotheaded and not focus on growth". Had NaMo even as much as mentioned what w...

RM ji, such a law already exists- the government can step in and purchase any property at the declared price. was used by V P Singh when he was FM IIRC

Adrija

We can argue about how it can be made better but to keep haranguing about privatization is silly. A subsidy based power distribution model has been an all-India failure. If you have evidence to the contrary kindly point it out. Kindly don't propagate leftist drivel and test our IQ. Oh well, I see l...

Adrija

No one knows what the so-called malpractices of the power companies are YET. These are all claims and allegations. Unless CAG indicts the power companies or an independent audit establishes so you are only promoting AAP propaganda That may well be true, so we should wait till the CAG comes out with...

Adrija

I doubt how many "educated" urban voters will side with AAP and even if they do so was the case when congress was being voted to power bythe same "urban educated" voters so more than BJP it will hurt congress wherever AAP decides to stand. Agree with the analysis but not so sure...

Adrija

AAP forming the government in Delhi, and BJP declining to is the right step......now Kejriwal will have to start grappling with the daily mundane issues of governance and he, as well as his supporters, will realize what "making change happen" entails. I think BJP should, and be seen to, si...

Punjabi Brahmins (Sheila Dixit is one too) Small nitpick Munnaji- Sheila Aunty is not a Punjabi Brahmin, she is a Sikh married to a UP brahmin (Vinay Dixit, Uma Shankar Dixit's son who was in the IAS but expired quite some time back. Uma Shankar Dixit was a major Cong (I) leader and one of Indira's...

Well, this has been declared OT, so my last post on this topic It is a matter of great humiliation for many to see their govt being housed in Buildings built by British Hain? These buildings were built by Indian money, and Indian labour........India was under British rule then but that is neither he...

Adrija

Delhi is not the capital of India because of British and Mughals (who by the way ruled from Agra till Shahjahan shifted to Delhi). The Brits shifted to Delhi and conducted the Darbar there also because of the old association with the" Hindu rule".... This is from the opening of the BJP's D...

I was hoping for the losing margins here you go 1. Burari 10,351 2. Delhi Cantt 355 3. Greater Kailash 10,351 4. Hari Nagar 8,876 5. Karol Bagh 1,750 6. Mundka 7,134 7. Rohini 1,872 8. Sangam Vihar 777 9. Shakur Basti 7,062 10. Shalimar Bagh 10,651 11. Tilak Nagar 2,088 12. Trilokpuri 17,685

If I may trouble you again, Can you provide full details of the 12 seats mentioned in point 2.? Pankajs babu, here is the list of 12: 1. Burari 2. Delhi Cantt 3. Greater Kailash 4. Hari Nagar (SAD was #2 in 2013, BJP winner in 2008) 5. Karol Bagh 6. Mundka 7. Rohini 8. Sangam Vihar 9. Shakur Basti ...

Can someone with access to data figure out the BJP bastions lost by narrow margins to AAP that could be turned around in a re-election by getting rid of useless "heavy weights"? Have made a table of the constituencies where BJP came # 2 (unable to past even as a picture; BRadmins, any sol...

Adrija

^^^ Suraj, well put. As I think has already bene said here many times before (including by me)- the dynasty's world view is Anti-growth, and dole-based..........they believe in keeping India, and Indians, poor and handout dependent. That is the only way they stay in power....and that is how they sur...

Adrija

I for one am really glad that BJP has indicated that it will not form a government in Delhi, as it lacks the numbers Let Fordriwal try teaming up with Congress or also decline to form the government as well, in which case Delhi goes under President's rule and has a re-election. This would be a good ...

Adrija

BJP should use the next six months to remove the nakaab of this Fordriwal.....make transparent their sources of funding, and also their anti-national ideology beyond the Lokpal rant.......

Adrija

BJP should form the govt in Delhi- it's 35 including the 1 SAD

BJP has the mandate now, it must govern. Fordriwal cannot be allowed to become CM.......will covert his rag-tag bunch into a proper outfit......needs to be crushed here and now

Adrija

Agree with hakim gakakkad sa'ab .....bhajapa should not form the government in Delhi unless it (+SAD) get a clear majority......let Fordriwal form the govt with Congi help or let it be a re-poll The worrying part is that the youth seem to have been immune to BJP appeal and logic and have failed to s...

Adrija

Can they change parties after elections ? IIRC, as per the Anti-Defection Act, individual MLAs/ MPs cannot, but think the law states that if more than 2/3rd of a party's members in parliament split then it is a split, not defection, and hence allowed (as per amended act, 91st Amendment I think) so ...

Adrija

Spoke to a few voters in Delhi.....the youth seem to have almost completely voted for the AAP guys..........that is what may be driving the extra-ordinary voter turnout.....

very worrying........and what a complete waste!!

Adrija

Who is the elder of the two? Kartikeya Vinayaka Interesting enough question- if one is to go by the story of Vinayaka's birth, then at the time parvati created Vinayak (vi + nayak= born without a father), then Kartikeya was already the leader of the Ganas, and hence the elder one But it seems the t...

Adi Shankara's Maya-vaada is quite similar to shunyavada of nagarjuna.

Excellent analysis, gakakkad saheb India is suffering from supply constraints, which things like NREGA do nothing to solve, in fact make worse....so the correct thing would have to use all these programs to create rural and urban infrastructure........that would have led to both short term improveme...

Adrija: Thanks for the great set of posts on taxation.

Thanks Suraj....

Adrija

Gents, there are multiple considerations one needs to manage while looking at the taxation regime: • Should tax on income, not assets........for a lot of people their house is the single largest asset but is self-occupied i.e. non cash generating. So any tax would pose a significant cash burden. So ...

Adrija

Gents, 1. Any talk of abolishing Income Tax is just absurd- it is the only progressive tax out there as someone has already said. ANY form of expenditure tax hurts the poor disproportionately.......abolishing Income tax is making the poor subsidize the rich. And abolishing Income tax makes absolutel...

We need to make it a rule that only followers of Indic religions can hold senior Govt positions.
