It is also called adam's bridge by many idiot Hindus. That is not helping. The author is right, the road that leads to the Sethu should be named Gandhi Marg and the Bridge itself should be named Sonia Indira Nehru Bridge. Then it will be safe. Ironically, these DK fanatics use Hindu money to destroy it. The Hindu temples pay the salaries and subsidize Islamic and Christian evangelism. The Christian name is saving the bridge either. Alternatively ti should be called Aurangezeb or Ghajni Bridge, it will be secure.
There are credible arguments available today that because of proliferation of buddhism in India AFTER the Gupta Period, WAS ROOT CAUSE OF DEFEAT OF INDIA BEFORE ISLAMIC INVADERS.
Adi Sankara tried to change it- was successful to a great degree, but not fully.
Gandhiji was another reason for creation of pakistan.

Time to liberate Delhi's Samadhi (Grave) areas and land develop for Public facilities. In Delhi, graves comprise thousands of hectares of prime land in the centre of the city. These graves must be destroyed and land used for public facilities. All Islamist built so-called heritage like many tombs, Lal Killas must be destroyed. All liberated land should be used for building public hospitals, schools, colleges, universities.

No military grade explosives. Ammonium nitrate, urea - crude bomb used often by Hindu Terrorists but given here some sophistication by using chips and timer

And that's the substantive contribution of a knickerwallah to a debate - insults, abuses.
Please posting more messages like this so that readers are left with no doubt why knickerwallahs come from lumpen elements of society.

King Ashoka killed thousands of people and then he turned into a saint because he left hinduism.

he did not wage war in the name of buddhism.
Even Dalai Lama has said recently: after becoming Buddhists, Tibetans lost military power. In previous mileniums, centuries, tibetans used to rule much of china.

Mr. Reddy, becoming a Buddhist is not leaving Hinduism. By definition, Hindus have to follow 24 Dharmas and should have explicit belief in the authority of the Vedas. some parts of the vedas, particularly the rituals (called Brahmnas-nothing to do Brhamins so do not come out against them like the DK idiots0. Some of these rituals are created to inculcate some element of curelty which is natural for other religions. If the whole soceity caters to Dharmas, then it would become weak, it takes into consideration mainly individual perfection. Buddha used the same Dhamas to achieve the whole social perfection. In his proclamation (which is available in Bhuvaneswar-the old Kalinga), he declared that his move is not cessation from the Sanatana, only adaptation of the principle of Ahimasa, the first of the 24 Hindu Dahrmas.

Mr.R K Reddy, forget about Ashoka. Have you heard of Spanish inquisition or inquisition in our own little Goa? The christians have killed more people than the followers of any other religion (even the Islamic terrorism pales into insignificance in front of that).

Rama and Krishna are mythological figures. I do not beleive that they actually existed. Even if Rama existed, he was only a Noble King. I do not find it necessary to defend any mythological characters. The atrocities committed by the Christians are historical facts. Do not try to justify historical events with something written in an epic.

All Bharatiya sampradayas (Hindu, Buddha, Jaina, Sikh) belong to same Sanatan Dharma. All the three later sampradayas born out of Mother Vedic Sanatan Dharma, Philosophy and Culture. Every followers of Sanatan dharma worship and respects common icons like Rama, Krishna, Buddha, Mahavir, Guru Nanak and common heritage. And there is no problem. Buddha is as much worshiped by the followers of Buddha sampradaya, as by the Hindu sampradaya. For Hindu sampradaya, Buddha is the 9th avatar of Bhagavan Vishnu. Every Sikh worship Rama, Krishna, Shiva, etc. Every Hindu worship and respect Mahavir. We all belong to Eternal Sanatan Dharma.

Mr.Tathagata Mukherjee, hinduism is not a religion in its narrow sense. It is a conglomeration of various beliefs and even non-belief. Athiests existed even in Vedic era.
Of course the principles of Buddhism are much more refined than the principles of any other religion. They beleive in the well being of all living things (not only humanbeings) and also do not beleive in any god or supreme creator. (It is a different matter that the followers have made Gautama the Buddha himself their "god"!!!!!)

Hinduism is a much more refined culture than the Semitc religions. We do not panic when some law in tune with today's needs are enacted. If that was the case, the Hindu Succession Act of 1955 itself would not have become a law.

Well said! hindus were never tolerant. its a myth. Its a religion based on the books that are based on wars.

R K Reddy: Talk sense, and apply common sense. Does you faith, whatever, teaches you hate? Your words shows, how lovable, compassionate, and peace-loving person you are. What you right, that reflects your own quality and character. Due to extreme tolerance of followers of Sanatan dharma, people of others faith can live peacefully and flourish. This is a fact. No country in the world where about 80% people are follower of one religion, will allow another religious man to become President, Prime Minister, and other higher posts. Only Hindus allowed that, this is a fact. A converted chrsitian like Samual Reddy can become CM in a hindu predominant state Andra Pradesh, where there a very few chrsitians. But a Hindu can't become CM in Nagaland, Meghalaya, J&K. Why? If you don't learn to respect these broad Hindu ways of life, then Hindus will treat you the say way you treat them. Wake up friend. Practice your faith and teching with love, respect and compassion.

R K Reddy, beleiving in Krishna is much better than worshipping a dead jew on a stick and beleiving that all entry tickets to heaven are in his possession.
