Satesh

If the concept of "Indian Canadian" is acceptable to you, why not Italian Indian?

By the way, I am not a congress supporter,

An "Indian Canadian " willingly accepts Canadian Citizenship. The "Italian Indian" in question accepted Indian Citizenship only after the congress party officials forced her to do so due to political pressure. An Indian Canadian learns the customs of Canada within 6-12 months of landing here. The Italian Indian person in question has lived in India for more than 15 years and apart from saying namaste, can't speak a single sentence of hindi fluently.

Comparing an Indian Canadian to this person is like comparing Apples with Oranges.

Whatever you say !

Sonia has won the hearts of millions by very politely denying the post of PM.

Has Vajpayee or any of his so called deshbhagats got such courage and balidaan ? They infact want to taste power by all means.

It was she who forced Vajpayee out of the power and liberated India from corrupt and communal NDA. Three cheers.

NDA means National Donkeys Alliance.

Long live the Indian voters !

Hey,

Please go through this editorial in Times of India and see for urself. Need I say more !

And also note that this editorial from Times of India - the voice of India and is not to be mistaken with the one fake Weekly Times of India available at desi Indian stores over here.

Come out of your shell. I need not say more.

Bye.

Power of Sacrifice (Leading Editorial in Times of India - the voice of India)


Whichever way you looked at Election-2004, it belonged to only one person: Sonia Gandhi. The Congress president fought the most daunting odds to give her party the kind of victory no one ever imagined. The Congress came back from behind to emerge with the highest vote share and the largest number of seats. But more remarkably, she won the unanimous support of over 300 legislators, among them men who had earlier opposed her on grounds of her foreign origin. Sonia had a mandate way beyond anything the outgoing government enjoyed in its five years in office. By all canons of democracy — and decency — she ought to have been sworn in as India ’s next prime minister. That things have turned out differently is an adverse comment, not on the democratic credentials of this wonderful country and the large masses of its people, but on the behaviour of a handful of men and women who, through sheer political blackmail, have sought to reverse the electoral mandate. It is a sad day for India . And yet, even if regretfully, we must accept her decision. By stepping aside to make way for another candidate, Sonia has emulated a tradition of renunciation that, ironically, has long been held to be the pinnacle of Indian civilisational thought.

Sonia can rest assured, though, that her stock will go up — as much here as internationally. By the same token, those in the BJP and the RSS who have spearheaded a hate campaign against her, must know that they have come out of this sordid drama looking like street bullies: The display of shakti by Sushma Swaraj and Uma Bharti did little for the famed maryada of the Hindutva parivar. This is all the more unfortunate considering the nature of the electoral verdict which was unambiguously against this kind of xenophobia. However, such is the politics of blackmail that it spares no one. It won’t be long before these hoodlum tactics rebound on the political class and the country. We have seen a manifestation of this in the behaviour of the stock market in the last few days. Clearly, the record fall of the Sensex by 564 points on Monday and its instant recovery within minutes of information that Sonia will be stepping down, cannot be explained in purely market terms. That markets should play such a role, by design or default, in the formation of government bodes ill both for our democracy and the future of free enterprise. This is a travesty of the larger ideals that capitalism, globalisation and democracy represent.
