Nope. Then on how would one explain Najma ? NE has been represented. I shall try to recollect the name and post

Looks like 75 was cut off. Najma was 74. What is Swamy's age

He is a loner. It is an open secret.

Saar log, cannot we make him an elephant

? My pet peeve is that the Elephant has been part of Indian history for centuries - both in war, social, religious and peaceful conditions. Yet it has not been given its due. Sad onlee.[/soapbox]

Cut off speculation doesn't cut it for me. Then Najma will be shown the doors next year ?
Capability and activism matters and in that Dr. SS does stand stall.

Najma Heptullah and my Father were in College togther as was Shambhu Dayal Sharma (younger brother of Shankar Dayal Sharma). He always spoke highly of Ms. Heptullah, they kept in touch for many years and He always said that she had no airs about her even when she was in High positions. They lost touch over the years. He would have been very happy today.

Yeah. I would love to believe that. Otherwise it is very odd that she is not included in cabinet. Ms lekhi is a smart and dynamic personality. Looks honest too.

to take down the borgs, we need to hit and destabilize the communication nerve center.

so the first thing modi gov should do is take on MSM, and get clear cut communication on the web.
let public and MSM race to get the info.

all gov dept, labs, governance centers must have info exchange web portals.

Not too happy with Uma Bharti as water resources minister. whats the point of giving her a ministry, that too one where there massive initiatives planned for cleaning rivers and linking rivers. she is a great orator and organisational person, not sure of her admin abilities. Especially with her failure as MP CM.

FWIW, Rajdeep was mentioning on CNN IBN during the oath taking that Nejma was very very close to PVNR.

Prominent missing list
a) Subbu Swamy
b) Rajiv Pratap Rudy
c) Meenakshi Lekhi
d) Arun Shourie - wanted himself out
e) Parrikkar
f) Amit Shah

Anirban Ganguly's open letter to Gopal Gandhi

When I saw Narendrabhai, a former chaiwallah, empowered and speaking in the Central Hall of Parliament and moving the hearts of millions, I recalled the words of one of your illustrious grandfathers, C Rajagopalachari, who had observed that “swaraj is not worth the trouble we took to achieve it, if we cannot make it possible for a worthy but poor man to get into Parliament”. Listening to Narendrabhai, I could almost see your grandfather wiping his tears of joy.

AAP activist held for allegedly sharing anti-Modi MMS

A 25-year-old MBA student and Aam Aadmi Party activist from the coastal Karnataka town of Bhatkal has been arrested for allegedly circulating an MMS ridiculing Prime Minister-elect Narendra Modi.

Waqas Barmawar, son of noted Bhatkal-based Nawaithi and Urdu poet Samiullah Barmawar, was held along with four of his friends from an apartment in Bangalore by the city police’s central crime branch on Saturday evening.

The other four were released on Sunday afternoon after questioning but Waqas continues to be in police custody. Police sources said he was taken to Khanapur in Belgaum for questioning.

The MMS that got Waqas into trouble shows a corpse morphed with Modi’s face. Spoofing the BJP election slogan “Abki Bar Modi Sarkar”, the image runs with the headline “Abki Baar antim sanskaar”.

The image was allegedly doing the rounds on a few WhatsApp groups administered by AAP activists. According to sources, it was accidentally forwarded to a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) supporter in Belgaum and he complained to the police.

Message from The Prime Minister

My dear fellow Indians and citizens of the world,

Namaste!

A very warm welcome to the official website of the Prime Minister of India.

On 16th May 2014 the people of India gave their verdict. They delivered a mandate for development, good governance and stability. As we devote ourselves to take India’s development journey to newer heights, we seek your support, blessings and active participation. Together we will script a glorious future for India. Let us together dream of a strong, developed and inclusive India that actively engages with the global community to strengthen the cause of world peace and development.

I envision this website as a very important medium of direct communication between us. I am a firm believer in the power of technology and social media to communicate with people across the world. I hope this platform creates opportunities to listen, learn and share one’s views.

Through this website you will also get all the latest information about my speeches, schedules, foreign visits and lot more. I will also keep informing you about innovative initiatives undertaken by the Government of India.

Yours,
Narendra Modi
