Can India Really Block Google And Facebook Without Banning Candles?
The simple answer, like in the case of China
Concerned with the rising and abusive character
assassination of the political leaders through morphed images and the dangers
of inflammatory posts in a religiously super sensitive nation, the flash points
of which the government has to strive very, very hard to keep from exploding,
the Indian government and now the Indian judiciary
have warned the Internet giants that they need to act.

What Makes Even The Russians Go On A Pilgrimage To Sabarimala?
Though it is a gross exaggeration to call the recent
visit of twelve Russians to Sabarimala the ultimate
capitulation of Marxism Leninism to the Indian Mythology, the event has opened
a rare and unique
travel experience to people from all over the world who seeks exotic
adventure of a different kind.
If you are not a woman under menopausal age and if you are
willing to do a spiritual
penance for 41 days, abstain from eating meat and enjoying sex in your
thoughts and life, let your hair and beard grow uncut and lead a Spartan
existence, then you can venture in to this life changing trip to Sabarimala which
more than 50 million Indians of all religions already make every year!
For the team of Russians
from Moscow led by Induchoodan, who has made this trip more than fifteen
times and who practices Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, this
unique pilgrimage to Sabarimala has probably come to mean what it does for
millions of Indians:

I Just Called To Say I Love You May Be What You Want To Hear This Christmas!
It is that time of the year when
you start looking for anything which makes you feel good and forget the misery
of the year gone by. It is the time when you search for and dust off the covers
of old audio and video cassettes, nuggets of nostalgia locked up in shelves and
boxes because whether you like it or not, strains of Christmas music everywhere
fondle the weakest corners of your heart and you slowly succumb to the euphoria
of the festive season. Why Is Anna Hazare Fasting While India Is Sinking?
The politics of wrangling and
bickering in the
“The industrial
production saw a staggering decline in October, with a negative growth of
5.1 percent in output mainly owing to huge fall in manufacturing and mining
sectors.”
Why Is Anna Hazare Fuelling Wal-Mart Politics?
Wal-Mart, which symbolise
capitalistic enslavement for the Indians, seems to be dividing India, world’s
largest democracy, in the middle even as the Indian government is bravely defending
its decision to allow Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)
in Retail, a reform which opens a market worth billions of dollars the world’s
major chains are desperate to enter.
The controversy is based on the
perceived pros of the move, strongly supported by the government in need of
urgent foreign investment to cover its budget deficit and maintain the growth
rate of the country and the cons, put forth by an opportunistic and motley combine of communists, communal
parties and the women
chief ministers of three states with over 30% of India’s population, who have
no clue of the complexities of the issue or particular reason other than their
bloated egos to object the move, claiming the government is only fooling
people.
"To
give an impression that FDI in retail will solve all problems like inflation,
price rise and unemployment... whosoever is saying this is fooling people that
FDI will get millions of jobs. It cannot happen."
