Can't believe this, surely you are not saying that fundamental rights of citizens and terrorists (& their sympathizers) are one and the same. Rather than indulging in too clever by halfness, it would be helpful if one could tell others, in detail, on how is the government 'ignoring the report...

Maoists blast CRPF vehicle in Chhattisgarh, 6 killed Support Naxals, face punishment Naxal Ideologies If Supported Could Lead To Severe Punishment

Arvind, What is the source? What are their demands? But how is taxing poor adivasis and others giving a message to the greedy capitalists and power hungry beasts? How is killing adivasis and innocent people giving a message to the greedy capitalists and power hungry beasts? How is...

Not so fast, vipin. When the naxals terrorists came into the jungles, only people they confronted were the tribals. It is only AFTER they have spread mayhem and murder amongst the tribal populace that security forces went in there and Salwa Judum was formed. i know such trivial and logical...

Do you know the minimum age of a kid who aspires to become an Indian Army Officer? 16 and a half, for NDA. So please spare me the tears welling up in your eyes! Now put yourself in the situation where a tribal kid who has seen the naked dance of naxal terror since ages with his own eyes, where...

Why hold the govt to a higher standard when naxals too are doing the same? Astounded that your 'little brain' could search for links to minors in SJ but anyone with half a brain could easily muster up a couple of links to naxals hiring minors. No problemo, let me help you: The child soldiers in...

It is delusional to think a war will not have collateral damage to the civilian population. I know of no war which is totally clean. Also, had naxal terrorism never existed such extreme measures could have been avoided and security forces would not be there in the first place. Dont remember who...

Two observations. Whenever there is a talk of naxal terrorism, some people cleverly insert "tribals aur unki durdasha" and portray naxal terrorists as tree swinging robin hoods. This is one point i would like to address and my target are the falsehoods and assumptions peddled not the people...

A Very well written reply, Jitender. Only exception I take is the one bolded above in quotes. You certainly are not alone to make this mistake since i too had this exact same notion. Just check the names of maoists in the news - Khobad Gandhi, Koteshwar Rao, ML Rao, Prasanta Bose, Kisanji who...

I have similar thoughts about this smear job on khaps done by ToI. What these jokers have done is, pre-judged that khaps are 'evil', 'medieval' and 'backward' and proceeded to do a write up with this prejudiced view. If one uses their clever style of argument and reasoning even our judicial...

Indian first and then a Jat.

Jitendra Bhai, there are conditions to fulfill before a proper Hindu marriage can be done, in the same link, read clause 5 (iv) and (v) for conditions and clause 3(f) and (g) for definitions. Mutual consent is only for divorce for the rest one has to provide a recognized custom or usage. Hope to...

Sir, per the original article, A factual error was made when the khap said that all Hindu communities can marry in the same gotra (via Hindu Marriage Act 1955). Least they should read before shooting their mouth off. This is totally incorrect, there are Hindu communities other than us who forbid...
