Monarchy is the symbol of democracy??? Common man work and contribute to the monarchs for them to have a fun filled life.
Here in Uk there was a 5second news of this incident that she is the longest reigning monarch thats all,no one even lifted a n eye lid,No body cared.A small article in the news paper thats all. I don't know why Rediff is making such a meal out of this. This article will be here for at least a week. Remove it we don't need it.

Well said.
Theories, rules, principal, definitions, and intellectuals are mistress of these kind of monarchs and capitalists. They always have different yardsticks.
I have the greatest admiration for this lady. Unlike other important women she has always kept a low profile but has performed her duties as queen with dignity and utmost sincerity.LONG LIVE THE QUEEN.

We live here because UK owes us a living, the money and other stuff they stole from Indians,We do not love these people or there country. We do0n't call them sirs or sahibes but swear at them as much as possible, our lads beat the living daylight out of them. last ime when The national front( a group of whits against indians)we put 90% of the attackers in the hospital, there skin peeled up to the bones, limbs broken, skulls split open. since then no one has ever looked at us Indians Let alone attack our community. We have no sympathy for them, we only want what they took from us. Nothing More nothing less. And we don't sing god save the stupid queen, we sing Jan Gan Mann,We don't celebrate queens birthday,let alone Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, Sri Lankans, people of other countries and the whites of UK do not care either. Those days are long gone.

It's a sick comparison. Don't forget selective killings of Hindu-Punjabi in Punjab for 10 years. Then explosion by Sikh terrorists every where, then they killed PM then they distributed sweets and celebrated the killing. Everything adds up.
Just blaming some party wouldn't help. Sociologists must go deep to understand the reson.

Very true, and each and every Congress member and its thugs who went to neighbourhoods to do the killing, must be summarily executed.
I'm from Karnataka, but it bewilders me how the Congress could still stay in power despite what it did.
i think she has conducted herself well...in the face of family problems etc.She remains quite steady...i do not think we should blame the royals unfairly be-cos they were British...i am sure that if we had indian maharajas instead of her we would have great palaces,temples etc... but definitely no VT station!

You are wrong,She does not do any thing for the country her power is minimum, She just classed as the head of the state nothing else. When the House of Parliament session is opened the door is shut on her face , she is not allowed in,she has to Knock on the door ask for permission to enter. The idea is to remind her that in the countries law is in the hand of the prime minister elected by the public and not in the hands of queen.She is No body. Ask us we know it, We live here.

You no doubt live in UK for the good of India. I am sure you are sending what you earn here back to India, because it is, according to you, Indian share. Keep it up!!!
what a shame to rediff by MURALI SUBRAMANIAM on Dec 21, 2007 01:00 PM | Hide replies
what a shame to rediff to publish such an article having not mentioned even about one single ruler from the great subcontinent.
it seems that someone like rediff are trying to rewrite the history. does it mean that there were no maurya's, cholas, cheras, pandiyas, pallavas, moghuls or satvahanas & etc...in india it was in their reign that the world has got real civilisation some centuries of millenium before. have u forgot about nalanda and taksila & etc... etc... its a real shame for rediff. take a chance to change yourself very soon

this is an idiotic criticsm. This piece was about modern events not past events. And for your information, the Cholas, Cheras, Pandiyas etc are not mentioned or even cared for by today's India. Even south indians name their institutions and places with North Indian names. Have some self respect and backbone first before criticising the British.
