I think Gandhi was a decent spiritual man who really wanted harmony but the Hindu militants like RSS disliked his model of peaceful religiosity and communal harmony. Even to this day, Nehru remains the face of a real and only true leader of an India that was sprouting into great nation. As an Indian Muslim I find it interesting that Nehru inspite of represnting a Hindu image also represented a modern and progressive image that is now lacking. People in other countries, be it Pakistan, USA, UK, Egypt, Iran, and China have a larger than life impression of Nehru. They still remember how he visited these foreign lands and people the world over were in awe of everything about him..right from his famous Nehru-cut jacket to his erudite persona and graceful skill of communication. Even India Gandhi was overshadowed by her father. After Rajiv's death India really became lackluster and remains so inspite of all the economic gain when it comes having a great leader. When you see all the nations' leaders at the UN together you just wish that either Rajiv or Nehru were at the helm.

Parkash, Your post is precisely opposite of reality. It is because you do not know basics. Ahmad Nawaz, India can never ever be or act as a bigger player as long as pseudo-secularism, multiparty system, islamic fanaticism are in place.

Leaders use to come and go, work of a "NATION" never stops. What we need is a "NATION" of "NATIONALISTS".

quite a rebuttal " you do not know basics"? LOL, what are those basics my dear chookri?
Most muslims and christians are terrorists. Christian terrorists get logical and material support from christian missionaries. Muslim terrorists get support from mullahs.
Most leaders and members of some terrorist organizations like naxals, ulfas, ndfb, ltte and maoists are christians, but some have hindu or some other non-christian names, to fool others, at the direction of their christian priests.
Christians, muslims, jews and sikhs have somewhat similar beliefs.
Jesus christ is ravana, allah is kumbhakaran, nanak is meghnath, yahweh is shrupnakha and sonia gandhi is tadaka. Ref.: myspace.com/rakesh5
Pakistan and China must vacate forcibly occupied territory in Jammu and Kashmir and pave the way for the state's integration into India. Pakistan's case is of forcible religious conversion, ethnic cleansing and genocide of hindus. Combined with this is deliberate attempt to change demography by pakistan infiltrators. all this must end and pakistan must mind its own business.
