u have read now it ur responsibility to told other ur close one who have sence to think and can forward there message to other close to them and going on
It was nice reading the article of Mr.B.Raman. Even though I am not fully conversant with the terms of these meeting which have happened earlier and has just concluded, I still feel what Mr. Raman has said must be taken seriously and our representatives sitting across table for such important meetings should know all facts before walking with closed eyes into any commitment.
The author has rightfully picturized Indian in-action. The sorry plight of Indian government stems from the following 1.India is scared to project its image as a majority hindu state. You need not term India as a Hindu state but alteast project an image that its policies are driven by a majority community. In the absence of it, other nations are naturally tempted to test our will. Any other free democratic countries in the world are not shy to project their religion. 2.The government/leaders of the national parties must be adequately represented by the major community. 3. We do not need to build a Rama Temple in Ayodya. But we must send a strong signal to all other indian communities that we are a majority community but willing to coexist with other communities peacefully. Do not call it secularisim- secularism means only submission. 4.Single party majority rule absent for some time now. Important policy decisions are lacking proper insight- sometimes driven by vested interests/atheists like regional parties/comic commies. 5. In Indian history all the famous rulers in the past always projected themselves as a leader of majority community and yet at the same time never suppressed other comminunities. Thanks to congress- it wiped out our will power and made the country meak and submissible. India needs it major community to surface and set right all those ills seen so far. Jai Hind

Dear Shri Rangaswamy, I am a peace-loving Indian inasmuch as showing utmost tolerance to my christian, muslim and sikh neighbours to coexist with me. My magnanimity towards other communities in enabling them practise their faith with full freedom does not mean that I am meek, submissive and that I want to play to the galleries - which is what the great national party of India - the Congress - has successfully achieved in 60 years. Today, in a majority hindu nation, I have to think 10 times before declaring my faith uninhibitedly. What a shame! I fully endorse your thoughts and let all Hindus shun their pseudo-secularistic credentials and declare boldly what they mean to profess. If this honorable attitude is portrayed as "fundamentalist-streak", it is a pity. But, I am sure this is what all non-hindu brethren will try to project. Hypocrites, many of us are, we have no shame in subjugating ourselves before other faiths when we live in alien lands and we also applaud other nationals for their courage to practise their faith openly!

Are we really subjucating yourselves to other faiths when we live in other lands? What a LIE ! Ask our brothers and sisters living in USA and the western countries, how freely they practice our hindu faith and you will know. It is good to be true to ones religion but this is a little too much !!

Thanks for your views. Calling ourselves "Secular" we are trying to talk reasons with fanatically religious states. What a strange approach to national issues!! We must talk from a point of strength - our majority religion with a rich heritage & tradition. I hope next time a hindu leaning party like BJP is voted to power with a clear majority. Then only congress & other parties will learn how to conduct our external affairs. Jai Hind
Excellent analysis. As i understand from lot other previous articles, 1. Army wants to control the functioning of Pakistan. There is lot of functional independency to Pakistan army because of previous war with India; by that it does not need govt permission. This will be possible only when if it projects there are threat to Pakistan from other country like India. More over the life style of army so luxurious and it is above the law. An army man does not want compromise its position in society. 2. They want to take revenge against the independence of Bangladesh from Pakistan. 3. The political parties most of the times use Kashmir to hide their inefficiencies like Balochistan.
With all the above, it is Pakistan army & many political leaders interest to engage India in current unsolved manner for there supremacy.
Now entire world has come to know about Pakistan game & its support for terrorism. To overcome international pressure, Pakistan is using India to over come from present problem.
But we Indians always lost our advantages position many times in past like in 1971 war or now may be Siachin.

Every thing may be correct from your pak point of view EXCEPT the last one about SIACHIN!!! Terrorist will die of their own terrorism, pakistan should understand by now. Also, Pak should understand that India won't flex its muscle for every pak's move in every situation!!!
Mr. Raman's article is very well argued like all his previous articles. He has been very critical of all govts. that does not have the saffron hue. However, he has not suggested what should be done with Indo-Pak talks. Should the govt. of India stop talking to Pak at all? Should it get into arguments and self justification with Pak as is inevitable and come to a stalemate. Or politely keep talking while pursuing its own agenda? As a retired bureaucrat, I am sure Mr Raman realises that one there are bilateral talks with sticky issues such as the present one, most govts. prefer the facade of talks/action rather than actual action. Who is taking the Indo Pak talks seriously? One knows Pak will follow its own course and I hope India is following its own self interest. The NDA govt did the same, there was the famous bus ride the the so called era of peace ushered in at Lahore and all the while Pak was planning Lahore. Wasn't Mr Raman in the govt then? Wasn't he advising it from within or without? Please guide me

Thank for your question. Let us Indians donot ask question ourselves. If we don't know anything, then read some history books or better don't post messages. The points Raman telling is correct from we look into the old histories!!!
I also asked some questions previously and got answers, but I understood that it is not the place to asking questions!!!
