Sorry about not posting !!
2006-12-14 06:56:01 Hi friends, I?m sorry for not posting anything for such a long time. For those who kept checking my blog and asking if I am ok or not, I appreciate your care and understanding. Things have been difficult with work and then the also I am busy with my some personal problems which I think some of you understand about it. These are not all the reasons why I haven?t posted, as I have been finding some difficulty in seeing anything clearly because of some real personal problems. I?m still generally optimistic but so much happened that still doesn?t make sense to me, or better say shouldn?t have happened, in my opinion. I don?t intend to remain stuck in the past and I intend to focus more on what can be done instead of just asking what went wrong. So much have happened since I last posted that I can?t comment on all in just one post. I am in India, reached Delhi yesterday night with loads of delays not for holidays but for some family problem reasons, so hoping every thing will be sorted ...

Kiss causes storm in India, A Kiss can be much more than a k
2006-12-05 18:48:02 India known as land of the Kamasutra, but public displays of affection remains strictly taboo in our country. Only few days ago many tabloids carry out the famous news about kissing between the Rajasthan CM and Biocon India Chief Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw. And now every tabloid is carrying out the news of Bollywood heartthrobs accused of obscenity for on-screen kiss. This sort of news has again showed India’s attitudes towards kissing and sexual equality. A kiss is amazing thing and its one of best thing to show your affection towards other person which words can?t express and two hearts cant share between them. But if you kiss someone publicly in India means only one thing you in deep desire to have a running with the law. In my opinion Kiss is just a simple expression of showing love and affection, I don?t understand why these some pathetic people says we can?t express our love and affection in the way we like too, why always we have to look over our shoulder?

Campaign for a real Christmas: Religious leaders unite again
2006-12-01 06:44:02 Well Done. This make sense any attempts to suppress Christ mas bring a backlash and Muslims get the blame. Like we heard earlier that some local authority attempts to stamp out Christmas include Birmingham’s decision to name its seasonal celebrations ‘Winterval’ and Luton’s attempt to change Christmas into a Harry Potter festival by renaming its festive lights ‘Luminos’ just appease particular community. Any more attempts similar to these will have bigger backlash. Christmas causes no offence to minority faiths, banning it offends almost everybody. Merry Christmas to all in advance. A campaign to save the traditions of Christmas from the interference of politically correct town halls was launched by an influential coalition of Christian and Muslim leaders yesterday. Leaders of the two faiths warned that attempts to suppress Christmas bring a backlash and Muslims get the blame. technorati tags: Christmas, Christian, Church, Religion, Festival...

Qaeda says Pope wants to pull Turkey from Islam-Web
2006-12-01 00:44:08 I still don?t understand why can?t these people use some brains and appreciate some one else work too. DUBAI, Nov 29 (Reuters) - Iraq’s al Qaeda wing on Wednesday condemned Pop e Benedict’s visit to Turkey as part of a crusade against Islam aimed at pulling Turkey away from the Muslim world. “The visit of the Pope in reality is meant to add momentum to the crusader campaign on the land of Islam after the failures of crusader leaders,” the al Qaeda-led “Islamic State in Iraq” said in a statement posted on the Internet. It said his visit to the predominantly Muslim country was “an attempt to extinguish the flame of Islam among our Muslim brothers in Turkey and to wipe out their Islamic heritage… and to guarantee that they stay in the quagmire of secularism established by … (Kemal) Ataturk”. technorati tags: Al Qaeda, Terrorist, Terrorism, Islam, Religion, Islamic, Turkey, Pope, More About: Want
India surprises with 9.2% growth
2006-12-01 00:44:08 Good News for India n’s India’s economic growth unexpectedly accelerated to 9.2 percent last quarter. The expansion reported by the Central Statistical Organisation in New Delhi today was faster than the 8.9 percent predicted by economists for the three months ended Sept. 30 from a year earlier.There are 700 million Indians under the age of 30, This makes India an economic threat to all the other countries in the world. These 700 million young Indians will hopefully build India as the Economy Super Power of the world. India put on an unexpected spurt of growth in the last quarter fuelled by sharply rising consumer credit and government spending, increasing the prospects that the central bank will raise borrowing costs for the fourth time in a year. The economy, Asia’s second-fastest growing, expanded 9.2 per cent in the three months to September, according to provisional data released on Thursday by the Central Statistical Organisation. It was the sixth quarter out... More About: With , Growth , Rise , Grow
India?s Muslims feel unwanted, hurt by terror tag
2006-12-01 00:44:08 India’s minority Muslim s feel they are seen as unpatriotic and need to constantly prove they are not “terrorists”, according to a study ordered by the prime minister said on Thursday. Report said “They carry a double burden of being labelled as ‘anti-national’ and as being ‘appeased’ at the same time,” So question has to be asked why even most secular people feels that time is running out for religious integration? Why Muslims in India loosing sympathies from non Muslims? Why non Muslims in India and also all over the world feel that Muslims are creating closed society for themselves? Why the Muslim community was “excessively sensitive to criticism” and “unwilling to engage in substantive debate”. Does it is all fault of government policies? India where 90% percent of Muslims are Hindu converts, why in recent years started feelings that they are unwanted in their own nation and motherland? I know many Mus...

From Hero to Zero Downfall of Indian Cricket Team Continue!

India n cricket team who had does some fabulous things in past has now forgets how to win, and players are not showing the stomach to fight. Individual become shadows of their former shelves. It?s hard to believe that Indian cricketers who reached last world cup finals changed so much from superb team to second rate team. Watching recent loosing trends of Indian cricket team in South Africa is absolutely heartbroken. Finalists of last world cup were unrecognizable. It was a performance of haunting incompetence.

India?s Christians dig deep for graveyard plot
2006-12-01 00:44:08 Cemeteries in India are either full or nearing capacity and Christian ?s citizens make up less than 2 percent of India’s 1.1 billion people are already casting about for places to bury their dead, Reuters reported. The shortage of burial space is tied to the many factors, government denial to offer more land saying other religious groups would make similar demands, second growth of Christianity in some states of India due to the conversion to some low caste Hindus and third restriction on building a new cemetery due to environmental restrictions. Many people are forced to pay fortune to book a plot for the family members and for themselves too. Like in Bihar one of the most poorer state of India asking people to donate up to 60,000 rupees to reserve plots. So for now, that’s the sorry state of affairs in India.

Islam hijacked
2006-10-05 06:51:02 Is some one talking Sense? Many people equate terrorism with Muslim fundamentalism, but do not know that Islam is strongly opposed to all forms of terrorism. Nor would they know that it is a fairly recent Islamic sect that has succeeded in capturing the minds of poor Muslims worldwide. Most Muslims look upon the Qur’an as the infallible, eternal and unchangeable words of Allah. But not many know how much the teachings of the Prophet have been revised over the past 14 centuries. The Qur’an only began to be compiled 14 years after Muhammad’s death in 632 AD when Khalif Abu Bakr gave Zaid Ibn Thabit, one of the Prophet’s companions, the task of writing it. The third Khalif Othman then announced the definitive Madina version in 665 AD. Several other versions were gathered and burned. But the Suras, or verses, of the Qur’an did not answer all the questions of a changing society. Hence, Muslim clerics sought further scriptural authorities fo... More About: Jack , Slam , Hijack

Vatican-Muslim dialogue back to square one: cardinal
2006-10-05 00:48:03 Very Right, I agree with him. Some radicals running campaign against Pope, in my opinion Pope had nothing to apologies for… PARIS - Vatican relations with the Islamic world must be restarted from square one because Muslim s insist on misinterpreting Pope Benedict?s recent comments on Islam, Germany?s top Catholic cardinal said in an article on Wednesday. Card inal Karl Lehmann, head of the German Catholic Bishops Conference, accused Muslim critics of running a campaign against the Pope and said the Pontiff had nothing to apologise for. The blunt comments from Lehmann, whose rich and influential church has close ties to the German-born Pope, seem to have been sparked by an unusual call from the 56-nation Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) for him to retract his words.The OIC call came a day after Benedict had received Muslim ambassadors to the Vatican and repeated his regrets for any misunderstanding of his Sept. 12 speech in which he quoted a Byzantine emperor sayin...

Suicide bombers brainwashed in Pakistan, says Afghan spy age
2006-10-05 00:48:03 Any Questions? KABUL - Would-be suicide bombers detained in Afghanistan claim they have been brainwashed and equipped by Arab, Chechen and Uzbek militants in Pakistan , the Afghan intelligence service said Wednesday. The claims were from 17 attackers who were arrested in the past month before they had the chance to strike, Sayed Ansari, the spokesman for the Afghan National Directorate of Security told reporters. Pakistan, which like Afghanistan is a key US ally in the ?war on terror?, has repeatedly denied the existence of militant training facilities on its soil. ?All of the detained have confessed they received training for suicide attacks, attacks against schools and institutions from Arab, Chechen and Uzbek instructors on the other side of the border (Pakistan),? said Ansari. He said illiterate people, those with a poor religious education or from deprived backgrounds were being ?brainwashed? in Pakistani training camps across the border and sent to Afghanistan. technorati ta...
