the Indian defence looked pi$$-poor and really shaky Thats because Indian defence is synonymous with Sardara and Sandeep. On the one hand, Coach Michael Nobbs used Sandeep Singh at the defence only sparingly, he was not available when India got its both penalty corners. And on the other, Sardara Si...

Bhupathi will retire at the end of Londonistan games. So will Leander. For Rohan, I am wondering what is his plan after 2012 when Hesh retires?

Suryag, that is an unfair statement. I have said this before to KJoishy too. Lee and Hesh are the best we have in India, age no bar. Even today.

Surya, even if the 999 year argument is unjust, what was Kerala doing signing away an amendment in as late as 1970? They could have refused then, no?! Did they have enough time to think about unjustness of it all till 1970 or did TN force it on (coerced) them even then? Cmon.... Even if thats the ma...

Suchitra Mahato was not just the wife of Sasadhar, she was also an active maoist. An eerie feeling tells me that she is in custody or dead.

WB started from almost no maoist presence (esp in terms of incidents, even if not so in terms of overt/covert supporters) to a huge presence in the last 4-5 years. JHK, CTG, etc. start from a high base of incidents even during the Bihar/MP days. Some of it can be seen under different categories.

There is often blame on TN for idiots who run politics by making those sensationalizing statements (Vai Ko, Ramadoss etc.). The media in Kerala plays that role, the media in TN just follows the sensational garbage and focusses more on kolaveri this kolaveri that.

Stan_Savljevic

Kerala clearly wants to rewrite the 999 year lease with a newer agreement. It is a smart move and TN realizes this and opposes this. Everything else is shadow games in the guise of TN is callous about Kerala people's lives etc. PS: This issue has clearly started trending on twitter in the last 2-3 d...

Shyam, the concern on the dam's safety is real and is seen by both Nairs and Christian groups (all types) in Kerala.

Here is an explanation: What remains unarticulated in the discussions on a new dam is whether the old deed steeped in controversy would remain in force for the new one also.
