After breaking the Congress party, Indira Gandhi called her faction the Congress-I. She wanted to crush the original formation, the INC led by Hitendra Desai, who was then the Gujarat CM. The political tussle between the two resulted in one of the worst ever communal riots in the state’s history. The riots lasted for six months and killed about 5000 people in Ahmadabad alone and between 12000 and 15000 in the whole state."<br /><br />Stuff it in your pipe and smoke it.Karthi Sivaramanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04943119475631503470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905259724971636384.post-69226582754933617302014-02-03T16:02:14.432-08:002014-02-03T16:02:14.432-08:00If you, Jackson, are so worried about "India&...If you, Jackson, are so worried about "India" - why don't you trust the Supreme Court SIT which has absolved NaMo of all charges? Nothing, let me repeat, nothing thrown at him by the Indian media has stuck in the court of law. <br /><br />Second, is Guj2002 the only riot the country has seen? What about several preceding riots in Ahemdabad? In 1969 riots that went on for months, more than 3000 people have been killed statewide. Or look at the Nellie massacre. If after all that, people like you would vote for Congress - it is only because it satisfies your need to be mollycoddled as a minority.<br /><br />Third, even today, the champions of "2002 riots" are silent about Muzzafarnagar Riots - simply because it happened in a secular regime, that of SP in Uttarpradesh. Had it happened in MP, all hell would have broken loose.<br /><br />Finally, after 2002 there has been no riots in Gujarat. Indian govt. (yes, run by UPA) documents the fastest alleviation of poverty amongst minorities in Guj, when compared to other states. It is definitely doing better than the secular UPA itself. <br /><br />People like you sir, hate Hindus. You hate the fact that the natives of this country are consolidating as a political force, and the kind of political influence that you peddled from 1947 till 2000's is fast disappearing due the consolidation. In order to stop the consolidation, you spew venom on leaders that also think of the majority community as equal citizens of this country. For your myopic gains and political influence, you support the worst kind of politicians en masse. This is what has ruined the country sir, not Narendra Modi or our ilk.<br /><br />Best,Karthi Sivaramanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04943119475631503470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905259724971636384.post-75976844544693431352014-01-09T03:31:26.847-08:002014-01-09T03:31:26.847-08:00what your saying is fact, India needs a autocratic...what your saying is fact, India needs a autocratic leader NOT modi. we want a peaceful India not a country with religious wars of which government supporting one and destroying other.Jacksonhttp://www.jacksonguitars.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905259724971636384.post-73042424655806900812013-03-04T05:40:23.032-08:002013-03-04T05:40:23.032-08:00Bravo!

Who we choose our leader will decide the India story in the 21st century. I hope we choose wisely. Even if all the educated people simply vote (not even for NaMo or BJP), we will be all set. I hope all your readers vote, for the sake our great nation, and what it has stood for, for thousands of years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4905259724971636384.post-70205689753355743292012-12-25T23:37:04.980-08:002012-12-25T23:37:04.980-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Meehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03286610719358841350noreply@blogger.com
