1) China on our doorstep fearlessly claiming India's NE land 2) China having direct boundry with Pakistan supplying them all support for fight against India 3) China controlling almost all rivers flowing into India from Tibet controlling agriculture, industries, power generation, floods in India's eastern states. 4) China supplying arms/money to Left and Naxals for anti-India activities giving India a permanent headach for who knows how many more years. 5) Chinese betrayed India, made mockery of India's peace initiatives/support in 60s, attacked India and stole India's land. 6) most of the chinese call Indians beggers and the national chinese media/newspapers potray India as a naked begger in various daily political cartoons. Majority of chinese take India for granted and don't appreciate the slavish behaviour of Indian leaders. 7) China has always opposed Indian seat in UN security council. 8) China opposed N-Deal, it played Left parties to stall it. 9) China kicked out Indian oil companies from Africa. 10) China pressurised mideast 'friends' not to help India during Kandahar crisis.
I fully agree with Raman's view on AKhan. Chinese are very scude politians and on has to be very calculative before taking any decision. I am of the view that AKhan should cordially denai and suggest Munnabhai's name to test the srudness of Chinese polititions.
Aamir Khan is carrying the torch only because 'Coke' is a title sponsor. It's as simple as that. IMO, Mr Raman's fury is directed at the fact that AK is making money out of this...
The whole China/Tibet thing is a matter of perspective. How would you react if Kashmiris went on a similar protest before the 2010 commonwealth games to protest Indian 'occupation' of Kashmir? Nothing is ever black and white in politics!
I don't think Aamir needs to justify his carrying the torch. That's his obligation for being a brand ambassador. Similarly, Mr Raman and his conspiracy theory... What do you smoke, Mr Raman? Try writing a novel instead... Maybe you'll earn more that way...

That's the point ....Why Mr. Khan is justifying himself by comparing Kashmere with Tibet. In this letterMr. Raman made this crystal clear that there is no comparision between Kashmere & Tibet...Mr. Raman has written this letter against the blog by Aamir Khan. There are two possibilities 1 is either Mr. Khan is unaware of the facts about the Kashmere issue & Tibet issue & he compared both as same & decided to run...while the 2nd is he knows all this facts & under the pressure of Sponsor & to have fame of carrying Olympic torch he decided to run with Olympic torch..but if the second is true then he should not justify himself by the blog he written on his webpage.That is antinational.

Reddy Sir, I agree that we are bad, but truely we are not as bad as China. Having agreed to that fact. We are all open to critisise our own people and stand out against own government when we dont agree with some or the other Law/regulation set, then why not against a country which has been autocratic against the Tibetans.
All Mr. Raman is saying to Aamir is, just know the facts and then make your own decision. After all your solidarity though in heart is not going to be shared to the more than a billion Chinese, its just going to be pushed under the carpet, when the news of you running with the Olympic Toch goes to China, all that chinese will get to know is Aamir has been with Olympic Torch and had attributed his solidarity towards the games to be held in China. There would not be an iota of information to the remotely living Tibetans and Uighurs.
I would request you to change the way to post words abt an eminent writer and guy who has worked for more than 3 decades in the intelligence agencies for India
All your article says is that we are bad but we are not as bad as China. You are saying "yes we kill innocents but then we allow the victims to be intervied" Wow what an argument. Stop looking at things from the small homes in you khaki chaddi. There is a big world out there.
