#1 Agreed.

Burhanuddin sahib, it`s such a quandary for marathi manus, especially for the supporters of BJP. On one hand first marathi person is getting a chance to be a prominent figure in national politics- where ghatis are treated nothing better than kaamwali bai in Mumbai- but on the other hand she is corrupt woman who supported Indira during emergency. Dilemma, dilemma!!

Qasmi Saab, Excellent article.

Yes, we can rightly be proud of a strong, secular & democratic India. However for this election, the overwhelming majority of Indians want Dr Abdul Kalam back as President, notwithstanding the fact that the people cannot vote in a Presidential election. Ironic really.
