It is time for President’s Rule in Gujarat.

The Narendra Modi government has fallen to a new low. The arrest of Sanjeev Bhatt for alleged offences u/s. 183, 189, 193, 195, 341 and 342 IPC is nothing less than the state’s victimization of a good citizen. It calls for president’s rule because the state is clearly acting like a terrorist here. I don’t understand why the Congress is silent? Why president’s rule has not been imposed yet? I…

Slutwalk in Delhi Is Fine

To be very frank, I didn’t have any intention of forming any opinion on this issue. Like many others, I believed that the use of phrase “Slutwalk” is some kind of promotion of prostitutes and prostitution, projecting them as an important and integral part of society not to be relegated to an inferior position.

Many people put up an argument that the DDA’s control over the developed land has led to high land prices by creating artificial scarcity. But, actually the reverse is true. I need to speak…

Not Just the Save Tiger Project, Please

Now, I am kind of bored writing about Naxals, so let this be my last post on them. First thing first! Who carried out the West Bengal train attack? The Indian Government strongly suspects a Naxal hand either directly or indirectly through one of their front organizations. Somewhere, I read that, as per the Indian Government, some local members of the PCPA carried out the attack though not necessarily in…

Sukma Attack is Condemnable

I was waiting for the Maoists’ version of the Sukma attack; they say that their targets were the Koya commanders, and they regret the killing of the civilians. I don’t think it’s enough! The reasons follow: 1 The Maoists intend to present an alternative government in India. In fact, they are already in de-facto control of some parts of India, and the Indian Government is trying to re-claim control (or…
