All the kar-kar-kars Narlikar-Hoyle theory of static universe is wrong, even Narlikar accepts that. Vijay Buttkar and Kakodkar are scientifically unproductive, the team does the work and they look for funds., basically they do an MBA's work and not a scientists. C. D. Deshmukh-thats when the indian currency fell to the lowest point in history. Tendulkar-No comments Pandurang Kane- who the fk is he ! Vijay Kelkar- No doubt we have been facing the largest stock market crashes ever. Vaidya - once in a bluemoon. Madhuri Dixit - you mean the lady who danced for choli ke peeche, yes its very similar to Lavni, thats your cultural mastery, none can come close.

Really telling you.... kick them now itself. If not, your generations to come will suffer like anything. Dont let AP become Hindi speaking state. Speak in your local language, English as secondary and Hindi as tertiary.

If Ambedkar wanted he could have partitioned the country long ago !! He could have easily lead the masses to convert to islam , There are no greater enemies in this world then the upper castes and dalits , excepting the jews and the germans... He is the greatest patriot of the living times.
