Even our first prime minister Nehru had a photo on the field outside the Palam runway beside a signboard with the legend "Photography strictly prohibited."
I am from South India but for earning livelihood left my place in 1963,worked in Pune, Mumbai for short periods and for over 35 years worked in various depts. in Delhi. Being in Media and having travelled many places in our country, I can say there is a clear violation of law and rules to show confidence or prove their courage whether in Delhi, or some places in Bihar or UP and in Maharashtra(since 1966)and as one wondered for such deeds, no action was ever taken nor anyone was stopped at the time of committing such acts. Now openly Goonda giri is going on and hardly any one takes timely action. Hope things may change soon for better. This turn of events may be due to deterioration of moral values and human values. Only money has become the centre and compassion and fear of god or destiny has been lost. Delhi Lieutenant Governor Tejendra Khannaji is quite correct in pointing out the short comings prevailing in these places.

I think that he is letting off steam. Mr. Khanna is himself a North Indian so he knows that 4 fingers are pointing at himself. What was the problem with asking citizens of Delhi to carry a valid ID card? All developed societies require their citizens to carry valid proof of identification. All of the citizens and politicians who have raised a hue and cry about enforcing a Police State seem to have a vested interest in encouraging lawlessness.

Business is set up where law and order situation are good, not where it is bad.
People from north India leave their hometown for to reasons a, For job and b for security and peace for their families..
Delhi is of Mrs. Shila Dixit, Mumbai is of Mr.Raj Thackry. The gr8 politicians of bihar and UP did nothing for their own states, then where these people should go ? Congress govt is just enjoying the situation and doing nothing either in Delhi or in Maharashtra. Leaders like Mr Lalu pd Yadav are busy by supporting this govt in center for their own political purposes. May be India is moving ahead on the path of disintegration . Its time to think it seriously , youth should come forward and Halla bol, halla bol.....

I could say all the time
Look at canada England Surinam Guyana USA you find the most successfull Indian ( more northindians!!!!!) they are not just labour class. they are successful business communities
The only people who take effort in learning local languages are people from linguistic states. That is Karnataka, AP, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Gujarat, Punjab, Maharashtra, Orissa, West Bengal. And also business communities like marwaris. These people know what it means to respecting the local cultures and learn the language over a period of time. Others, who are Hindi speakers, rarely make an effort to learn and respect local languages. I am sure this is something most people from linguistic state background will agree on.
