So ??</title><description>Jarnail Singh ..yesterday in a very filmy style recreated the Bush scene but this time on our own Home minister...and their was a media frenzy on that matter...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If u had got to see the STAR NEWS footage of the scene..then U must be knowing that his intention was not at all hitting Chidambaram...he wanted to make his point and so he hurled it an angle, deliberately to miss the home minister but still making the point... as the position from where he was sitting even Rakhi Sawant won't miss the aim... So Mr. Home minister...u should't boast about giving him forgiveness...coz that brave hearted guy didn't want to hit ya..he was there to make his point ..which u were refusing to answer saying 'no arguments'... it is shameful of Congress which I so admire .. to give a ticket to Jagdish Tytler and Sajjan kumar... the case is still in court and he needed to be proved innocent before becoming a Member of Parliament of a secular democracy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everybody knows who was in fault in 84 riots and 25 years later ..u can't dig all the witnesses and even if you can,  their statements are bound to change..people are not computer! My lord !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is so shameful of us that we delayed the justice for so long...in 1984 people got massacred, raped...pregnant women were burnt alive and the rioters didn't spared any young kids too.... So isn't it the duty of our governement to serve justice rather freely distributing the tickets to the offenders.???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What Jarnail Singh did was totally wrong..but he did try to make a point and believe me he made a point and people of Punjab will defn show that to Congress...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Govt. needed to punish Jarnail Singh for the act because a shoe hurled at our home minister  is similar to throwing a shoe on our democracy and Congress should learn to defend our democracy rather than defending the votebanks and hiding the controversies..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all know what was Operation Bluestar and its aftermath... and we all know what Chidambaram was doing their in that press conference...as I heard the agony of victims of Assam blast myself...so Mr. Chidu... don't tell us what you gonna do when u come back to power...as I know u  failed to provide security to those victims in Assam  on the very day u made the speech while still in power ...Oohh!! not to forget those 30 talibani Suicide bombers who are now in J&amp;amp;K ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wake up Indians! Wake up !  You all need to help the govt. to learn that it is accountable for all the crimes that were committed in their tenure as well as by their predecessors!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God Bless India!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7040886851849602733-1774296790836273809?l=independent-views.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://independent-views.blogspot.com/2009/04/jarnail-singh-hurls-shoe-to-chidambaram.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (♥ÐÅyÐяєÅмє®♥)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040886851849602733.post-2467548711725725261</guid><pubDate>Wed, 01 Apr 2009 08:48:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-04-01T01:52:43.152-07:00</atom:updated><title>Murder Plot against Varun ??</title><description>So much for the publicity...Dawood hitman ordered another hitman to hit Varun.

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;So what bloggers ..who are worldwide recognized as voice of the younger generation.. are needed to exercise the tape on the mouth and chains on the hands ????&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Though I am not against the Supreme court in anyway and I kno it must had his reason but my question is.. if we don't have the financial support, how we are gonna fight the lawsuits filed against us if we are not satisfied with the government's decision and express our views on public platform or may be we don't have the rights to express our views on the deeds of the government and political parties whom we elect in the largest democracy.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;So is it the beginning of a new dictatorship system in India??? The first brake on freedom of expression ?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Just go through &lt;a href="http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/4178823.cms"&gt;the news&lt;/a&gt; and you will know what I am talking about...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Indian subcontinent was always a disturbed zone..so America always had a buyer for its arsenal in this subcontinent..that's Pakistan...and always India was under its scanner..bjut with advent of Pervez Musharraf and successful ongoing talks regarding solving of bilateral issues between India and Pakistan..it virtually stopped the arms race..though still the both countries are the largest arms importer...but there was another problem rising on the horizon and that's China..and America wanted an ally in this subcontinent to have a check..so first they blew up Afghanistan..and set an nearby NATO command base and then it chose Pakistan..who was in eager demand of recognition and made it a NATO ally..but Indian economy sudden got a boom and India started to have ties wid gulf and other countries and started to expand it's arsenal of warcrafts..and America wanted to be on that purchase table of billion dollars arms sale..so America tapped on the weak point of India..yeah the energy crisis and ongoing Nuclear technology.. so it floated a new agreement bypassing NPT (Non- proliferation Treaty) and NSG (Nuclear suppliers group) to make India it's ally..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;123 agreement has it multi role advantages  for US..of which Independent views is gonna give you touch of few of that..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;1) It will have direct access to India's nuclear technology which is hidden and under wraps coz India is no signatory of the NPT and IAEA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;2) Stopping the enrichment program and thus indirectly halting India's military Nuclear Program&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;3) Booking a seat in Major Arms deal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;4) Have a check on China by making India a superpower and thus concentrating Chinese attention to India&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;5) Keep a check on Tehran - New Delhi ties.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;But US is facing a problem to convince the congress coz supporting India's Nuclear program will make India a credible threat coz of it's foreign policy..as India is not any member of any allied group and has ties with most of the countries and they fear leaking of nuclear technology.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-size:130%;" &gt;India&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; - But in India..it's not the multirole advantage US is getting, but the problem is little bit different..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;India has a fragile political system due to the multi-party democracy...so one of the allies , the left front of ruling coalition has a problem with the Nuclear deal and rest of the opposition is not agreeing coz it's their duty not to agree to the government..as they are the opposition and they jus get the literal meaning of it..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;So what's the problem with Leftist...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;They had made the enrichment issue their top agenda..that US in return wants India not to enrich the spent fuel which can be used as fuel for Nuclear Bomb..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;But today  Independent Views will give u an insight of the problem..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Actually left is fearing that making US as an ally will make India, a threat for Middle east countries or the gulf region. It is not that the fear that oil will be stopped..but CPI(M) is ruling party in Kerala...and a big junk of the Keralite population has their folks working in Iran and middle east, which the gulf countries have made clear that they wud make them all return back to India...So CPI(M) in Kerala knows that if the people are thrown out of the gulf countries ..they will throw away the government in Kerala..and will make CPI(M) a minor party..so they started the furore to stop India from signing in the Nuclear Deal, which may had checked the ongoing energy crisis in India..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;So now ..Independent Views believe that reader's are abreast of the political and economic scenario regarding the Nuclear deal. Any question or criticism will be answered and adding up of views will be highly appreciated.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7040886851849602733-5303837609250913544?l=independent-views.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://independent-views.blogspot.com/2008/04/nuclear-deal-and-india.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (♥ÐÅyÐяєÅмє®♥)</author><thr:total>12</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040886851849602733.post-8854922246917928035</guid><pubDate>Sat, 12 Jan 2008 12:00:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-01-12T04:54:06.476-08:00</atom:updated><title>TATA Nano - The one lac Car</title><description>&lt;a style="font-family: times new roman;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__E6KRjJP1Oo/R4i2RG0bDTI/AAAAAAAAAJY/p8Pf6z60Z2Y/s1600-h/539w.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 312px; height: 228px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__E6KRjJP1Oo/R4i2RG0bDTI/AAAAAAAAAJY/p8Pf6z60Z2Y/s200/539w.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5154570178530053426" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;This year in Auto Expo 2008 in New Delhi..every one was waiting for the outcome of the TATA promise..their One Lac Car ( $ 2500) ..world's cheapest.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Amidst speculation by the rivals that TATA will come out with a scooter in a box..whose handle replaced by steering..TATA shut out every one's mouth to launch a highly spacious variant with&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;following specifications&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;624cc petrol engine, 33 HP, 4-speed manual gear shift&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;20km per litre mileage, upto 26km per litre on highway; 30 liter fuel tank&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;4 door, 5-seater&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;8% smaller than the Maruti 800 in length, but offers 21% more interior space!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Air conditioning, but no power steering&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rear engine, front boot&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;With the estimate of a one road price of Rs. 120 thousand after insurance and road tax...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;Though the car has shut all the critics mouth...but &lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;INDEPENDENT VIEWS&lt;/span&gt; has its own view about it....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;TATA Nano is indeed a good car..we just  to wait for the field trial as like before TATA's petrol variants can't be trusted..so I don't think people will jump on the new car..without seeing how its engine behaving after the failure of Petrol modeled Indica..Since power steering is missing..it will not be that much easy to steer the car due to it's low engine power which will increase the inertia...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 0, 0);"&gt;But &lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;INDEPENDENT VIEWS&lt;/span&gt; is all conncerened about the current situation of energy crisis.. Inspite of it being quite a fuel efficient..launching it in the nearly same segment of two wheelers..will persuade more people to go towards Nano rather than going for two wheelers coz of present economic uplifting of society..which has brought the car in every one's purchase range. .. More the car..more will be the petrol expenditure..and sooner we will go  towards depletion of our resources..with an estimate of TATA's production capacity of 2-3 lac..it will speed up the depletion by at least 5 years in India..and present energy crisis ...US nuclear deal..and stalling of Indo-Iran pipeline..will just aggravate the seriousness..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 102, 0);"&gt;But the situation is worsened with the announcement of Maruti Suzuki..that by the end of this year ..their 660 cc will be on the road...then it will be a competition..but number of car sale will go up coz the sale will not be limited to TATA only ..but Maruti will also be able to play a role in Demand-Supply chain..and it will make the situation more serious..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 153);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;INDEPENDENT VIEWS&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 153);"&gt;is predicting that by 2011.. it will be a serious problem..not only for environment and as traffic congestion..but will hav serious implication as a political and economic fallout..as India harbors a billion people i.e. 1/6 of the world's population..and handing dem a low cost ..fuel consumer.. will have serious implications towards oil depletion and soaring of petrol prices..and  I am damn sure that government is not currently equipped to face a energy crisis and this will only increase the common man's problem to maintain his own budget in that situation coz India is way behind in renewable resources..and it will pass it's burden on to the shoulders of common man...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 0, 51);"&gt;God save India......&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: times new roman; color: rgb(51, 0, 51);"&gt;Sourish&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7040886851849602733-8854922246917928035?l=independent-views.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://independent-views.blogspot.com/2008/01/tata-nano-one-lac-car.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (♥ÐÅyÐяєÅмє®♥)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__E6KRjJP1Oo/R4i2RG0bDTI/AAAAAAAAAJY/p8Pf6z60Z2Y/s72-c/539w.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>14</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040886851849602733.post-6792664803017595494</guid><pubDate>Fri, 11 Jan 2008 17:32:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-01-11T09:41:48.981-08:00</atom:updated><title>Introduction</title><description>For long I have thought..that I should write what I feel about the current developments that are shaping up the world that I will be stepping to..without the protection of my parents..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Current world is changing real fast..dere is blood blood and blood everywhere..i dont know how many people wud be interested in knowing my views..but believe me It won't be only my views but it will be supported by the research and evidences that i will be collecting from various resources...It'll not be only about politics..but it wud be all policy decisions..right from the sports to the economy..every thing i will cover...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always..the disclaimer goes&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The current view is only and only mine..so don't get influenced without thinking about it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Viewer's discretion is advised&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7040886851849602733-6792664803017595494?l=independent-views.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://independent-views.blogspot.com/2008/01/introduction.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (♥ÐÅyÐяєÅмє®♥)</author><thr:total>3</thr:total></item></channel></rss>
