Height of hypocrisy of Rahul Gandhi

Image
Rahul Gandhi climbed the steps of the Chotila temple, one more example of his hypocrisy. He has been visiting so many temples of Gujarat, one after the other, to prove that he is so much in favor of the hindus, which he is not. Gujaratis know him very well.  In context with the Malegaav bomb blast case back in 2009, Rahul Gandhi while giving an interview with an american news channel clearly said that this incidence has been caused by a Hindu terror organisation and that Shrikant Purohit, the prime accused, is a hindu terrorist!! He also emphatically said that the threat of hindu terror is more dangerous for the country rather than of islamic terror!! Subsequent to that, the case against Purohit became stronger and he has been in jail since last 8 years. Today a special court in Maharashtra acquitted Purohit of this heinous charge of being a hindu terrorist and went ahead to say that there is no evidence of any hindu terrorist organisation which had planned and executed this b

Can indians ever forgive the scamsters?

Even after 70 years of independence India continues to be regarded as a poor nation, with about 20% of its population still living under the poverty line. No doubt, it is considered right now as the second fastest developing economy in the world, just next to China and quite ahead of US, UK, France and Germany. It has a very vibrant middle class now. Nevertheless, it continues to be regarded as a "third world country" in spite of the huge strides it has taken on the economic front in the last 25 years after the announcement of the New Economic policy in 1992. One of the main reasons why India is still poor is Corruption. One may argue that corruption is there every where in the world. But during 2009 to 2014, i.e. the second term of the UPA rule (headed by the Congress party), India witnessed unprecedentedly high levels of corruption, ever since its independence. Scam after scam the public continued to receive severe jolts when one after the other its elected repre

3 Main reasons why India is so behind in Sports

Countries with a population of just 8 to 9 crore like Germany, France atleast get 40 to 45 medals on an average, including atleast 10 gold medals in Olympics. It is rather tragic sir, that India with a population of 132 crores almost 14 times then above two gets hardly 15 medals and in total and a poor 1 or 2 Gold medals. Now, one may argue that the above two countries are “developed” countries whereas we are still considered a “developing country”. My counter-argument is that if India can show its mettle in the area of software development, engineering and medical science why not in sports? So what if we are a developing country. We lag behind others in terms of medals, because of following reasons:-  (1) Most of indians do not even know the names of so many sport events which bear Gold medals if a player performs at his best, for example Taekwondo, Kata, Kumite etc. These events have Gold medals each. The sports ministry of India should see to it that we have players/athletes p

Were Gujarat Election results a "moral victory" for the Congress party?

Life teaches us lessons every single day. Smart people learn them and make good progress. However, some people just do not learn a single thing, in spite of the same lesson getting repeated in front of them. One of such is Rahul Gandhi. The Congress party got 77 seats out of 182 in the recently held Gujarat Assembly elections. Although they registered a gain of 16 seats over the last result of 2012 (in which the got 61), it was a clear-cut defeat for them. Yet Mr. Rahul Gand hi said yesterday that it was a "moral" victory for the congress party as they could gain 16 seats and snatch them from the ruling BJP!! Instead of making "aatma-chintan" (soul-searching) as to why they could not manage to get to the majority mark of 92 and finding reasons for falling short by 12 seats to that decisive figure, he claimed that it was a moral victory for the Congress. This is the main difference between a loser and winner. A winner, when he loses suddenly, does not boast in a

Smriti Irani is not the right choice to become the CM of Gujarat

There have been news floating around that Union Minister Mrs. Smriti Irani will become the next Chief Minister of Gujarat. If that is true, then let me tell you being a gujarati that she is not the right choice.  I have been watching the former TV actress representing BJP on TV debate shows since 2008. She lacks all the virtues necessary to be a state leader, like calmness of mind, decency in speech and above all ability to think with a long-term perspective. She has got involved with about a dozen people in severely bitter debates, some of which have dragged her to the courts too. Being tough with your opp osition is good but being rough and brutal with them in your usage of language is bad. That reflects your lack of acumen, shortage of ideas and inability to remain cool under pressure situations. Violence can not happen just physically. It can also happen in words, in your language when you speak such words which are termed as indecent in public life. Smriti is used to such wo
