Kick Geelani Out; Save Kashmir

                                        To save Kashmir, kick out Geelani

Let’s start first by admitting that from the start BJP joining hands with the PDP to form a government in Jammu & Kashmir is a big blunder. Just for the sake of securing a few puny ministerships, had the party opted to be in the opposition and allowed a combination of the PDP, the National Conference and the Congress party to take over in Srinagar, very soon public opinion would have turned against such an alliance, and in the mid-term elections that would almost certainly follow, the BJP may have secured just enough seats in Kashmir to come to power on its own. With every year that passes, the attractiveness of Pakistan as an alternative to Indian statehood is getting reduced, so much so that apart from Syed Ali Shah Geelani and a few others loyal to the salt which nourishes them, most of those whose occupation it is to protest against the rest of India, work on the basis the desirable option is a level of autonomy sufficient to ensure total Wahhabisation. Such individuals are not satisfied with the partial Wahhabisation that has been implemented in Jammu & Kashmir since the Congress party allowed Sheikh Abdullah in 1947 to take over as Prime Minister, later on being turfed out, but thereafter displacing secular predecessors, who, had they continued, would have ensured the extinguishing of the unreal hope that the state could, through unrest or rebellion, win an overwhelmingly Wahhabised governance structure that would be independent of the Central government in every particular barring the formal.

Unfortunately for the people of the state and for the rest of the country, the 15% or so of the population that are partial or total Wahhabis is the only segment taken into account by both the media as well as the Central government. (fell extremely sad and outraged at the Modi Govt. for excluding the kashmiri Pandits who too are a party and rightfull owners of the valley) Of course, such a disastrous concession to a fundamentally undemocratic group has since been justified on the grounds first of “secularism” and now on the grounds of “pragmatism”. The BJP argues that its presence in the state government ensures that the state “does not slip into anarchy”. The Ministry of Home Affairs, which is historically known for neglecting societal sores until they turn cancerous, apparently believes that the presence of a BJP Deputy Chief Minister and miscellaneous ministers from the party is sufficient to ensure that Srinagar keep to the path of fealty to the Constitution of India. The MHA has, therefore, outsourced to J&K BJP ministers its job of ensuring adherence within the ruling structure of Kashmir to the political and governance principles ensuring the unity of this country. This despite the fact that from the start, these necessary principles have been ignored by the Wahhabis and their backers within the inner recesses of the governance mechanism of the state. Despite having only a slightly higher number of seats than the BJP, the PDP has arrogated to itself about 90% of the effective powers of the state government, of course in the name of “secularism” and “pragmatism”. Such an abdication of responsibility by the country’s ruling party would, it was calculated, “heal tensions and cool down passions”. In fact, the reverse has taken place.

According to the Muftis and the Abdullahs, the Wahhabis are the only segment of J&K society that need “healing”. The fact is that it is the rest of the population which has been ravaged by this medieval force, and which needs the sympathetic attention and “healing”, which till now has been denied by successive governments that have competed with each other to grovel at the doors of the Wahhabi grandees. None of these seem to do any work barring periodic calls to create chaos, although all of whom seem to be very well off, with the Income-Tax authorities clearly not looking their way. More than verbal tributes to Shyama Prasad Mukherjee, what is needed is to ensure that the warnings of that prescient leader be taken seriously and at least some of his prescriptions get followed in Jammu & Kashmir, especially autonomy from Srinagar for Jammu and Ladakh. It is striking that the many politicians who swear by secularism seem oblivious of the fact that the principle has been absent in J&K since Jawaharlal Nehru decided that even accession to India was less important than ensuring the primacy of Sheikh Abdullah over the state. Indira Gandhi persisted with her father’s policy of coddling the Sheikh, while Rajiv briefly rebelled against one wing of the family, that led by Farooq Abdullah, in the process supporting a closet Wahhabi, G.M. Shah, who accelerated the process that saw the state plunging into terror within years of his rule. The Muftis too believe that the only segment that needs coddling is the Wahhabi fringe. Such persistent appeasement of a fringe should be halted. Instead, what is needed is to put on a flight to Lahore sans passport Geelani and those who swear loyalty to Pakistan. Such firmness may cause short-term problems but in the longer term, it will ensure the stability and secularism in Kashmir that has been denied the state till now because of a consistent policy of appeasing the fringe at the cost of the bulk of the population of the state while the pundits are left in the lurch.

Nehru Exposed

In the last two weeks, we came across a shockingly shameful incident. And I am not talking about the whole net neutrality thing.

Our First Prime Minister, shamelessly snooped on Subhash Chandra Bose’s kin will go a long way exposing the first prime minister as a cunning politician. Generations of Indians have been fed on the Congress-Left glorification of Nehru as a visionary statesman, the builder of modern India, a great liberal, and all the lies that is still being fed and peddled by the Media and the Corrupt Gandhi’s, this is likely to change after the expose. On one of the greatest leaders India ever had, and whose "death" is the biggest unsolved mystery in the history of India.

Take a step back and think about it. If Bose died in a plane crash, as they said he did, then why did Nehru spy on his surviving kin? Did he fear that they were contacting his spirit, to take tips on how to dethrone Nehru?

Or did he know that Bose was alive and was dreading his return? Because the person who would've lost the most on Bose's return was Nehru and his bunch of Congress sycophants.

Nehru’s fear was indeed psychotic in nature. Earlier in 1957, his party had registered an impressive victory, winning 365 out of 489 seats of the Lok Sabha. The Opposition was hopelessly weak and divided; only two parties crossed the double-digit mark, the Communist Party of India being the largest non-Congress party with 16 seats. It is astonishing that a politician so comfortably placed could stoop to snooping into the lives of people who were not even in politics.

When Subhash Chandra Bose was active in Congress, Nehru evidently saw him as a rival, as both were quite similar in many respects; both were young, Left-leaning leaders with aristocratic backgrounds. The difference was that Bose was very popular, while Nehru had to lean on Gandhi for support. In fact, Bose was more popular than Gandhi, as evident from the fact that he defeated Bhogaraju Pattabhi Sitaramayya for the post of the president of the Indian National Congress in the Tripura session of 1939. This was despite Gandhi’s open support to Sitaramayya. But Bose was ailing at that time, and the supposedly saintly Gandhi played a sordid game of intrigue and manipulation to ensure the exit of Bose from the Congress. Meanwhile Nehru did not lend any support to the ideologically kindred Bose. This must have pleased Gandhi no end; he later paid back by making Nehru Independent India’s first prime minister.

So, Subramanian Swamy hit the nail on the head when he tweeted in the wake of the snooping revelation, “Gandhi and Nehru saw Bose as a threat to their positions, so [they] isolated Netaji.” In January this year, Swamy also said, “According to the papers that exist with us, Bose had faked his death and escaped to Manchuria in China which was under Russian occupation, hoping Russia would look after him. But Stalin (another greatest crook and bad ass leader the world has seen) put him in a jail in Siberia. Somewhere around 1953, he hanged or suffocated Bose to death.” ( this is what the news is floating on the net, it’s not been authenticated)

I believe Nehru knew Bose was alive. And I also believe that Nehru was scared shitless about it. And I think he went all the way to ensure Bose never returned to India.

I think it's time we had a closure on the Bose Saga. Please Mr. Modi, declassify the files and tell us what actually happened. Please tell us that the so called "First Family" shamelessly tried to erase the legacy of a great man. Please reveal that we were ruled, for over 50 years, by a family of cowards and selfish individuals, whose only concerns were power and pelf.

I hope my friends at least now accept that the credit for India's Independence does not go to either the so called Mahatma nor to play boy Nehru. 

Greedy buyers.com

October 6 is one of the most memorable day in the history of online retailers, yes the day of Big Billion Day” sale on Flipkart surely is a day that would go down the history for taking a big leap in online retail business.  I unfortunately did not get a change to visit the site that day,  but the next day when I checked Twitter;  Flipkart was trending for all negative reasons and then Facebook was newsfeed except articles, posts, open letters, memes, accusations flung into Flipkart’s face telling them how they’ve let us down..  Then the next day comes a mail from Flip kart asking for an apology and giving out reasons for why it was not great success.

So I just analyzed what went wrong, when my friend said that things were getting sold out in seconds, some said I could not access the site at all, some said the prices were varying a lot and blah-blah.

My response is Mr. Bansal do you think any ordinary guy would understand what the hell is a server? Then why give this technically loaded jargons in an apology letter? But one thing that we should credit this guys for setting up a company with about 6000 people if not more, which is experiencing unprecedented growth in the last few years and trust me it’s extremely difficult to lead a company when thousands are joining your team with loads of aspiration and dreams. These guys are doing a commendable job.

Then come people talking about how Flipkart is a homegrown product/service and that they had faith in it, and now it’s gone and it’s a Flipkart.con, some say it’s just not there cup to tea to make it big etc. That’s absurd and very discouraging. They have their back against the wall. Amazon is trying to take over the market, they’re putting in money like crazy just trying to compete. Instead of helping Flipkart out, at this crucial stage, when they just wanted to try something new, take a plunge, you’re going to criticise, because all you people out there can handle 6000(approx) people working for you. Because all you people out there can manage servers (and know what a server is) and I’m sure every one of you has the guts to do something as massive as this even though the stakes, the risks, and the investment are so high.

Can we people in India stop trying to get a freebie, seriously we are so used to getting things for free that it has become part of our DNA to seek for free things and brazenly ask for unthinkable discounts. Mistakes are made by the biggest and the best. (Remember JC penny in US? Or Kodak?)  

It’s great to see Amazon and Flipkart battling it out, and to be honest I’m rooting for Flip kart. Amazon is good, best, wonderful all the best adjectives you want please add. But you know what, Flipkart has bigger B***. Yes they certainly have guts to digest failure which none of the guys who made fun of them have and this includes me.  Amazon just has tons of money and nothing new or hot. 

Yes they screwed up, but its ok, next time they won’t. I am sure they will learn their lessons. 

I don’t work for Flipkart, nor am I being paid for this. But I am sick and tired of hearing about this for so many days. You’re a bunch of ungrateful people who just want free shit. And that’s the reason when the sale started you couldn’t get anything, because other people like you bought it first. And so fast, that it was over. 

We Indians are such shameless people who will bargain for 1 Rs. with a vegetable vendor but will not mind leaving a 50 Rs. bill as tip in a restaurant after eating food which was cooked two days back. We are ungrateful shameless people living in this country who don’t appreciate that there are people far better and far smarter, taking bigger risks than you, and sure they’ve failed but they TRIED. I’m sure half of you can’t even text your crush (I am one of them). Or couldn’t even tell your parents you loved someone so instead settled for an arranged marriage. Pathetic.

These guys took on Amazon, and they’re battling it out every day. I’m a nobody, but I say that we get over it and fucking help them. Give them a change because they deserve it. Because I want these guys to succeed. Mistakes are made, forgiving them is what counts. They didn’t really cheat you, you were greedy, and didn’t want to pay. 

GET OVER IT. HONESTLY. GET OVER IT.

To Bansal brothers, don’t screw up again. This game isn’t for people who aren’t prepared. You worried Jeff Bezos was shitting in his pants so much that he had to fly to India a few days ago. And I like that. I love to see these American CEO’s running around to with their d*** in hands. And stop giving us lecture on how great America is.

But get your act together, I am giving you another chance because I want to. And because I know that I could never do what you guys are doing and I respect that.

But for god’s sake spend the extra money on a double spread ad next time. Those Snapdeal guys had you by the balls. You were almost there. Get back in the game, let’s see round two. 

You aren’t fully forgiven, you’re being permitted to sing me love songs and get me back to buying shit from you. So tread cautiously. 

There will not be a next time after this. Take risks. But delay taking those risks even if there is a minor chance of error. Fix those errors. Every bug should be stress tested. Fuck those servers up during testing. You’re dealing with a “Greedy Fucking Nation”.

Btw, can the country now get back on track and worry about the government, women’s rights, racism, and other more important things. 

One mismanagement of a sale has gotten people to ignore these important matters yet again.

Humanity is screwed and forgotten by people easily and that is the problem.

Pakistan suffers from Attention deficiency syndrome.

Pakistan got a rude shock yesterday when there were told that talks will be called off if they continue to talk with the separatist, this stand shook the Pakistan foreign office which was taking advantage of previous Government’s lackluster and appeasing attitude, Pakistan has been pursuing a policy to create disturbances in Jammu & Kashmir in tandem with local separatists groups. However, with a new Government at the Centre with absolute majority under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the stand of India is quite clear- don’t mess around with me, Its not going to be business as usual, The NDA Government has made it clear to Pakistan that it will have to choose either India or the Kashmiri separatists. Even after the Indian High Commissioner’s warning, when Pakistan continued its dubious policy on Kashmiri separatists, the Government of India rightly called-off scheduled bilateral talks in Islamabad on August 26.

This sudden shocker has given fodder to many blabbering mouths in Indian media and of course the congress. As usual Media has got its facts and priorities wrong, some desperately want the talk to go on even if it costs our jawan’s life or that coward Haffez sayeed keeps spewing venom against India. Congress on the other hand was shouting through the roof that why doesn’t Modi speak up? Why is he going soft on Pakistan and by evening when the meeting was called off they started singing another tune that this government has no Pakistan centric policy and this was a knee jerk reaction; this complete U turn is quite expected from them but the Irony is they giving the government sermon on how to deal with Pakistan is laughable. At least after analyzing how they surrendered India’s interest in Sharm-el-sheikh, calling former Pakistan PM Raja Pervaiz Ashraf  a man of peace right after Mumbai blasts this sums up how Congress or UPA dealt with Pakistan or what their foreign policy was. Now since PM has made his intentions clear that he means business with any of his neighbors and a warning signal that you better take him and India seriously this has set a positive precedent as far as Nepal and Bhutan is concerned which is good news but question is how do you deal with your neighbors in East and West i.e. Pakistan and Bangladesh? Do we seriously have a policy in place? Where do we want this relation to go? We can’t use a carrot and stick policy with them forever.

Let’s analyse how one can deal with Pakistan. So to deal with your enemy you need to understand there mindset and what their actual intention is, so let’s go back to history for a while and understand why there is so much deep rooted hatred between India and Pakistan, it goes back to the Mr. Jinnah who wanted a separate state for Muslims because he could never be the PM of United India and he ganged up with Nehru and introduced two nation theory, where he was successful in getting Pakistan or to call Islamic state. All said that said and done this whole partition left a never healing wound on India where scores of people were forced to leave Pakistan overnight and millions were butchered, women raped and forced to convert and this was Jinnah’s idea of true secularism where they did not allow a minority (Hindus in Pakistan were in minority on 1947). Then they were not just content with Pakistan but also wanted to expand their influence to India and started creating trouble in Kashmir, then later on Kashmir joined India and we fought a war and as we all know rest is history. Now if you think that Kashmir is the root cause of all issues you are wrong, let’s assume we give away Kashmir enmity will never end. That is because Pakistan has declared itself as a Islamic State which is born for Islam and its sole purpose is to defend Islam and defeat Hindu State i.e. India (again one more proof that they are a secular state). If you have this mindset, you won't accept peace. Peace means defeat in the Pakistani scheme of things. Every

India-Pakistan negotiation that ends up ceding some ground to our western neighbor will, in fact, embolden it to seek even more. The matter will never end till the Pakistanis themselves abandon the ideology of a religion-based state (especially a religion-based state that is also setting itself up in opposition to the idea of India.) But that

realization is some decades away. (Now if you think I have cooked up this story or being biased against Islam then please check Google and see what Taliban said in a TV interview few years back; that India is a unfinished Job)  And then read this brilliant interview of Christine Fair  where she says "Pakistan is an ideological state. The Kashmir issue is not causal, it's symptomatic. If there were to be any kind of negotiation on Kashmir that gives up any inch of territory, it is not going to fix the situation." So there cannot be anything more clear indication than this, so whenever you see “Aman Ki Aashaa” and other bull shit that the liberals say on prime time TV debates, just shut down the TV it’s not going to yield any results.

The other propaganda that these liberals keep spreading is that people of Pakistan want peace but the Army does not want peace; how intelligent? In 68 years it was last year that Pakistan has finally had a democratic government that lasted a full term otherwise it was only ruled under Marshal laws; so Democracy to Pakistan is like Latin and Greek they just cannot accept Democracy (look at other Islamic states none of them have a stable Democratic govt. Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, all are going through a turbulent phase) It’s always been the Army/ISI which has called the shots and will always do, Christine Fair found that jihad is central to the Pakistani army's strategic culture: "The use of jihad is a way to make it seem as if everything the Pakistani army does is

Islamically justified." If jihad is the army's policy, it is the policy of the Pakistani state too. Hence, any resolution to India-Pak conflict means Civilian government will start calling the shots and Army will start losing its importance or may be forced to fall in line.

Yes, there are some people other side who want peace but do they have any representation?  If you go towards Northern Punjab the hub of Jihadi you see the civilians hate India more than the army these is where most of the terrorist are recruited. And come down south to Punjab province where the most of the army staff is recruited and the rest of Pakistan has its own conflict of survival.

Also, one important point I would like to make is in PoK the majority is of Muslim population is Shias and Pakistan is a Sunni majority so if Pakistan get Kashmir then again we will see these shias driven out of the valley.

If we accept this reality, we need to have our own counter-strategy to deal with an illogical Pakistan that is not driven by common motives of a nation-state. Whether to hold talks or not has to be part of strategy but we will talk on our terms should be the strategy, we should keep our other options open like strengthening partnership with our neighbors like Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and China and try and alienate Pakistan in the region. Build our defense capability and be prepaid to fight on both the front that is Chinese side and Pakistan side. Expose the Pakistani double standards on all levels and in all major events be it UN, WTO, SAARC, Common wealth Nations etc. But the most important point is to Keep the Baluchistan issue burning because Baluchistan for Pakistan is like what Kashmir is to India so we get even when there is fire on both ends. Post American forces exit from Afghanistan is an important time period because Taliban will now start moving east i.e. towards India and we need to be prepaid for that as well, so our relationship with Afghanistan is going to be very critical in coming years. As Christine Fair notes, Pakistan is setting up a “civilizational” conflict with India, and such conflicts are not short-term ones. This means we should forget about a deal on Kashmir whatsoever. Fair herself dismisses ideas of a “grand bargain” on Kashmir as “rubbish.”

We need a 100 year strategy to counter Pakistan, not an on-off response mechanism to Pakistani provocations.

What the Modi government should do is not follow the carrot and stick policy and theatrical gestures and focus on long-term strategy with respect to Pakistan. Because; they have Attention deficiency syndrome.

Lion Roars From Red Fort.

Let me start this blog by wishing all readers a very Happy Independence day.

In today’s blog I will analyse Modi’s Independence Day speech.

In what can be described as one of the best Independence Day speech in our recent history. After seeing a decade of a puppet PM on a string, hiding behind a glass box (I still wonder why MMS use to deliver a speech from the bullet proof bracket. Who the hell on this earth with sane mind would ever even try to assassin MMS) and reading in reverse from Urdu texts we have a Prime Minister who talks from the heart and talks extempore.in the It has always been a favorite, almost obsessive pastime of India to show its politicians a mirror which reveals their ugly face — corrupt, incompetent and self-serving. Now, finally, a politician has shown India a mirror which reveals an almost equally ugly face — disrespecting of women, filthy and totally self-serving. It needed someone with the confidence of a Narendra Modi to admonish a constantly self-pitying citizenry or allow me to be blunt; we are hypocrites of the highest levels.

The fact is that both India's rulers and its ruled had got used to living in a political economy of entitlements. The dynasts for long believed that they had a right to be the ruling class. In turn, they would provide entitlements to the impoverished masses — from free food to free schooling to doles. It might well have been a cosy and functional arrangement, except that the rulers failed to adequately deliver the promised entitlements to the citizenry. The voters obliged the "entitled" rulers with their votes, but got little in return. They had every right to be angry and show their leaders a mirror. The rulers could never, not with any legitimacy anyway, admonish the citizens for their many failings. In his I-Day speech these are the problems in govt. that Modi talked about that there are governments within the govt. that are operating at cross purposes. Predictably, the pessimistic ones from the media and, of course, the Congress couldn’t see anything positive about Modi’s speech, his vision or his attention to key issues that touch the lives of people. They are used to grandiose bull shit like “Garibi Hatao” or “Aam Aadmi” non-sense.

Clearly, Modi wants to change the entrenched relationship between the ruler and the ruled. He is uniquely positioned to do so. He was never "entitled" to rule. If anything, he was always considered unfit to rule by the entrenched ruling class (which would have been happy with any mainstream alternative to Modi within the BJP). He has risen to the top overcoming several obstacles, many of which involved reforming his own personality and attitude. Modi has little patience for a citizenry which expects the government to spoon feed it. He will simply not allow all of India's failures to be placed at the door of his government. Society and individuals will have to share the blame for failure, while also sharing the credit for success. It is only natural that even in a speech of nearly an hour, no one can touch upon all the issues that concern India. Therefore, the right thing to do would be to talk about what he did say. And Modi did touch upon many issues from toilets to sons being more responsible to avoid crimes. He talked about cleanliness and hygiene. These are things that affect every citizen. He talked mostly about things that are clearly within the control of each citizen which does not take rocket science to do. He talked to the “people” directly and not to the usual “Durbaris” and useless “Pundits” to seek any applause from them.

One of the most important slogans from the speech that impressed me is “Make in India”.

Let’s analyse the history of Indian Manufacturing carefully. The US is a genius when it comes to “branding” and marketing. Ask a kid to name 10 famous brands from the US, I am sure anyone would be able to recall them. Google, Apple, McDonalds etc. Electronics in the US are invariably made in Taiwan or even in China. Now try naming 10 Indian brands internationally known. Can we? Given our resources and population we could have been a manufacturing giant without sacrificing our advantages in other sectors. A dramatic upward change in our industrial manufacturing output is inevitable and a must for our economic growth. The Chinese are no good at branding or marketing but they have become the manufacturing hub for the world and at rock bottom prices. No one understands this better than Narendra Modi who comes from the highly industrialised state of Gujarat.

The reason why we have failed to realise our potential as a manufacturing giant it is solely due to the Communist policies of the Congress.  There is no difference between Congress and the Communist who have kept people poor, uneducated, unskilled and unemployable. Modi stresses on skills and that is absolutely a must for us to become a manufacturing giant and also self-employment at the individual level. The new govt has already initiated steps for labour-law reforms which are essential for the manufacturing investment and growth. A dramatic growth in manufacturing also brings along with it a huge R&D set-up and the continuous process of innovation and value addition.

Second important point is women empowerment, and crimes against women.

The world’s largest democracy has a most pathetic record of highest crimes against women; in todays day and time when technology is used to save people’s life we Indians use to identify the sex of the child and then abort it. Now, the government has talked about reservation for women, women’s force etc. But can women's empowerment be the job of the state alone? No, society must play ball. Nobody can argue against the fact that the law and order machinery has to be overhauled to ensure that crimes against women are prevented and prosecuted more efficiently than now. But can the law and order machinery alone eliminate violence against women? It will always be tough for any law enforcement to prevent female foeticide. Modi is on the right track by demanding that the people at large also take responsibility for progressive change.

While he listed out many things which includes; sanitation, village modernization, highways, broadband connectivity and many more. What Modi has done is drawn an excellent picture of India, Implementation is what is key to India’s problem.

Why Mr. Nawaz Sharif is not so shareef”.

As it is now confirmed that Nawaz Sharif would be attending Modi’s oath taking ceremony on Monday, it might sound a good move or gesture on Modi’s behalf to reach out to Pakistani counterpart along with other SAARC nations. But why did it take Mr. Sharif so much time to accept the invitation that to for just a ceremony? Let me analyse it for you.

It’s a no brainer that the Pakistan Government runs in the shadow of Pakistani Army and ISI, the PM more or less is just a puppet of the Army. Since independence, it was in 2013 when there Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf completed its 5 year term as elected government for the first time! Thanks to Pressure from US and other allies of western world which cautioned the Army from interfering with the Govt. That is success rate of Pakistani Democracy. Coming to Mr. Sharif in specific he was the PM twice before getting elected last year, but unfortunately he could not complete his full term in office even once. Both the times he was unceremoniously booted out of office by the army in 1993 by General Abdul Vahied Kakar and by General Musharaf in 1999. In 1997, Sharif and his Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) won a landslide victory in the elections, defeating Benazir Bhutto and her People's party. Commenting on his victory, the Pakistan media and the people of Pakistan hoped that Sharif would provide a conservative but a stable government benefit for Pakistan as he promised earlier. Besides Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, no other leader, in the history of Pakistan, has enjoyed his level of popularity, and received the exclusive mandate from all over the Pakistan to improve the all over conditions in Pakistan at same time.

By now you could conclude how bad the situation of Democracy in Pakistan is. Mr. Sharif during his election speeches made the same old rhetoric of having friendly relations with India, resolving the Kashmir Issue, Siachen issue, Sir Creek etc. He also offered to support India as Most Favored Nation in the UN. This all might sound music to Indian and Indian media who are having orgasm’s thinking of India-Pakistan will finally forget the past and be friends again. Quite laughable and ridiculous to say so, here it is why Mr. Sharif is not a free agent as far as India is concerned. There is a brutal veto in the form of Pakistani generals, despite his big announcements on normalizing ties with India during the election campaign; Sharif really can't act without the intervention of the military. It’s the ISI and Army which calls the shots from Islamabad. So no matter what the civilians think of relations with India, Pakistani Army, ISI, religions fundamentals like LeT will never like Pakistan to have good relations with India for decades to come, this you can take it in writing from me. Some of the reasons why India and Pakistan can never be in good relations are.

1. First and most important thing to understand is Mr. Sharif is no angel; he was the same man who gave thumbs up to Kargil in 1999. Which, obviously he would deny now and shift the blame to Mr. Musharaf. Also, his brother who is the CM of Punjab state has close ties with Taliban and LeT, So please tread carefully with Pakistan because the snake is lurking in the grass and waiting to strike on any chance it gets.
2. As I said previously that the Army and ISI are the real government of Pakistan, they are so power full that they could give Osama-bin-laden shelter in Abbott bad and the government did not even have news about it. Pakistani Army is such a rouge organisation that just can’t digest the fact that civil government wants to have normal ties with India hence it employees the so called non-state actors like Jamat ul dawa or LeT to sponsor terror in India and sabotage the entire peace process with Pakistan. 
3. Any normal relations with India mean Army and ISI is out of Business, that is the reason why even before Mr. Sharif was about to accept the invitation by Modi they sent terrorist to strike at Indian Diplomatic Office in Heart, Afghanistan. It was a warning from Army to Mr. Sharif about the consequences if he accepts the Invitation. In other words they reminded Mr. Sharif what General Musharaf did to him in 1999 when he was tried to build good relations with India, this did not go well with the Army and three months later Kargil happened and the rest as you know is history. Where Mr. Sharif’s government was thrown out and general Musharaf took over Pakistan. So, If Mr. Sharif wants to come to Delhi he must ensure that he has got his return ticket “confirmed” back to Islamabad and not travel on a “waiting list ticket”
4. The China factor: As China grows its Economic, and Military influence over the Asian region it’s inevitable to observe how it would react to the growing bilateral ties between India and Pakistan. China is averse to see India’s economic growth and its influence over south Asian countries, because China’s aim is to be world number 1 and the only two countries which are capable to stop it is America and china. In the past decade we have seen that china has been warming up to Pakistan but in turn gave a tough time to Indian establishment on its north east borders and in South China Sea where ONGC was exploring oil. It has also not lost a single opportunity to make friends with our neighbors be it Sri Lanka, Maldives, Thailand, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Tibet. We have had very strained relations with all these countries in the past decade, the only friends we had were Thailand where they managed to stage a coup, and they are trying very hard meddle with Japan in south china sea over a small group of Islands. In other words we can say that we have shot in our own foot by holding on to our ego rather than extending a hand of friendship with our neighbors. China would certainly not be impressed if India and Pak move ahead.

There are Waziristan, Baluchistan, and the biggest of them is Afghanistan, what happens when US withdraws its troops from there in 2015? There are endless topics which are tinkering in the peace process between India and Pakistan which are sown by the Pakistani Army and ISI, no doubt the civilians want to have better relations with India but the question is will Mr. Sharif have the spine to say army and ISI to stay away.

Mr. Modi deal cautiously with Mr. Not So Sharif. 

Mission 272+ accomplished.

16 May 2014 will go down as a momentous Victory Day in India's history. The day the nation broke its shackles and attained deliverance from the corrupt, communal and colonial UPA government headed by the Italian branch of the Nehru-Gandhi family, which has bled our country by several thousands of crores during the last decade. This has been the mother of all victories, stunning the Congress into a deathly silence. With their miserable tally of 44 seats, they cannot even aspire to lead the Opposition. Such was the pathetic performance by congress that the entire cabinet of Mr. Manmohan Sing lost all their seats and some even their deposits, those outstanding performers who lost there deposits were Salman Khurshid, Karti Chidumbarum. Adding to woes of congress even AAP there subsidiary and it’s leader “Shree 420” or “AK 49” as Modi fondly calls him also could not come to his masters rescue, winning just 4 seats outside Delhi and losing deposits in 423 seats. Not to forget its also a defeat of the gossip mongers of 160+ club in BJP, it’s time that they simply surrender to the mighty and fall in line. This is not just a victory of a tea seller or a politically nobody but a victory of ever commoner who was again and again insulted by the congress and its ministers who went on to the extent of saying “poverty is a state of mind” to “you need just 12 rupees to feed your stomach” to “calling Osamaji” and visiting the house of terrorist in UP. This is the victory of the suppressed, abused, forgotten, and most importantly the anger of the countrymen.

From those two seats in 1984 to 282 in 2014, the BJP has indeed come a long way. The Narender Modi wave or Tsunami whatever you would like to call was so huge that it has sweeped the entire North India sparing J&K, one surprise result which sent shock waves thorough out the secular brigade was UP and Bihar, what a splendid performance 73 and 31 respectively. But, mind you, unlike 1984, no riot, not even a minor communal skirmish, has framed the Modi mandate. No attempt was made to whip up religious passions. The singular focus was on ~vikas~, though, the non-BJP parties, in sheer desperation, did try to inject the communal and caste card in the latter stages of the campaign, but, happily, all in vain. Modi, more than his party, had hard-sold himself as the harbinger of development. That alone would explain the depth and breadth of the BJP victory. Aspiration India identified with him like it did with no other leader before, with the sole exception perhaps of Indira Gandhi in 1971. In 1984 the BJP was reduced to two seats, the Congress Party has ended up with its lowest ever tally in 2014. A mere 45 seats in the Lok Sabha may have put in jeopardy its status as the recognized opposition party as well. The joke going around on twitter and other social media is that “time has take a full circle; from struggling to stitch an coalition for forming a government to now get a status of opposition” Since, by all accounts, this spectacular defeat was self-made, you would imagine that the party would do some serious introspection, an honest appraisal of the humiliating loss, a dispassionate post-mortem of Vote 2014. But all of this is conspicuous for its absence.

Instead, you see the usual attempt to shift the blame from the high command to everyone else, well when was the last time the Gandhi were blamed for defeat? As usual it’s the Congress culture to credit the victories to Gandhi’s, but blame everyone else for defeat and a crude attempt to accuse the winners for having stolen the mandate on false pretexts, or even a barely veiled attempt to blame the voters for succumbing to the alleged money power of the Mody campaign. If money alone could win elections, the Congress was assured of permanence in power not just in Delhi but throughout the country. For, who can match the vast riches of the Congress families? Ironically, such ill-gotten riches have contributed immensely to the fall of the party to the status of an also-ran in the latest poll. Corruption, after all, was a significant factor in the huge drubbing of the Congress, though consumer inflation was the single-most important reason.

The UPA ensured the unity of their coalition through their adharma of corruption. By allocating spheres of corruption to each constituent, they ensured their continuity, confident also that religious division and vote banks that they engineered would blot out their plunder at the next election. They couldn't have been more misguided. The entire nation rejoices and salutes India's new Prime Minister, Narender Modi, who after a tireless and grueling campaign of almost two years has received an unprecedented, historic mandate from the people of India to lead our country.

I must also congratulate all the volunteers of mission 272+, the scores of youngsters who right from the start have consistently supported Narender Modi for Prime Ministership. And it has happened just as we forecast and hoped, and Narender Modi will be Prime Minister of the country, despite the hatred, calumny and lies that was disseminated about him in the most diabolical and calculated manner. But he fought them all and won.
