It comes as a big surprise to most that Americans elected Barack Obama as their next President and that is mainly because he is half-black. But thanks to the disgusting policies of the Bush administration and Obama’s campaign which involved a lot of grassroots-level operations, the US has turned a page in history by electing…
Manmohan Singh let go of his Leftist allies and braved a confidence vote to clinch the nuclear deal with US. But now he faces a bigger challenge of convincing Austria, New Zealand and the Netherlands that India is a safe nuclear power.

The Kanchi Shankaracharya made a big deal of settling the Ayodhya issue by calling the VHP and the Muslims and talking a few times – well, he ended up making a big fool of himself. The sants of Ayodhya call together a meeting for constructing the Ayodhya temple, and then keep meeting and keep meeting,…
Manu Smriti was written millennia ago, but if in all of its history it was ever followed, then it is now and by the BJP. BJP has a high regard for women, it treats women as mothers and Devis, but it has no high impression of them. In all of BJP’s history and even before,…
