Traffic logjam?

It is one thing to have a traffic logjam at 9 am but totally another to have one at 6am in the morning. It is high time that the government of Tamilnadu did something about this, after all with all the taxes and the VAT thyat the government collects from individuals and businesses alike, is it too much to expect to travel without the headache of sitting in one's car for hours on end? Will the government listen?

India and Myanmar - no more weapons!

India, it seems has finally given in to world opinion and it has decided to no longer sell any more arms to the military Junta. This news broke out in the Washington post and it has been independently confirmed by them as well.
Of course, as to the veracity of this news, one can be sure of it, at least until the government here does a turnaround and start selling arms to the Junta all over again.
But this action taken by one of the Junta's closest allies, is bound to send a stern message to the Junta that they cannot do business in the way that they have been doing all these years. It is high time that the Junta realise that anything attempted by force does not last for long and that the reconciliation process between the Junta and the democratically elected leader of Myanmar,Aung San Suu Kyi should be put on the fast track!

A nuclear 'time off'.

It seems that the Left parties who were so vehemently opposing the Nuclear deal may have told the goernment to go ahead with negotiations with the IAEA. This turnaround has certainly come as a surprise to many in the political circles, but irrespective of whether the Left parties hae agreed to gie the nod or not, the government may soon find itself back in the situation with its main ally, the left parties holding the knife at its throat. The time has come to give the Left parties and their blackmail the boot and in my opinion they should do this sooner than later!

Shame,shame,shame on you!

The left parties should be ashamed that it is holding the government hostage.many believe that the Left parties are actually the agents of China.whether that is true or not,the left's position on so many issues correspond to the position of China itself.this is indeed very worrying that the government of India could be held hostage and stopped from carrying out its duties because of certain foreign Powers.
what is more,most of the educated citizens of India are of the opinion that the Nuclear deal between India and the United stats is in the national interest and that it is essential.and with the Left's threat of withdrawing support if the government goes ahead with the Nuclear deal is only being seen as many as the left is against any development for India as large and that they are interested in foisting another national election on the people!
What is really galling is that these people are doing it under the guise of 'national interest'.it is more likely a case of self interest.the left have shown their true colors and the people of India will never forgive them if they try to foist another general election on such grounds and under the guise of 'national interest'.it is the tax payers money that is being spent every election and we the tax payers most certainly do not want another election right away.the left parties can be assured that come next election they will most definitely not get our votes and that is the truth!
