Dog dies after biting judge


CHANDIGARH: Had the Municipal Corporation constructed a dog pound in the city, district and sessions judge KK Garg would not have had to suffer a nightmare after he was bitten by a stray mongrel on Monday. The dog died immediately after the incident. Worryingly, doctors say this could be a symptom of rabies.

Obama Inauguration Brings Hope, Scepticism Well Hamid,

I am not a fan of mohjir but I got to say this: If you put them on to something they will usually get it by hook or by crook.
Before Partition they used to go around in Bihar and UP saying," Ban kay rahay ga Pakistan, butt kay rahay Hindustan"
Well they did it.

Now if we put them in charge of "butt kay raha ga Hindustan, Ban ka rahay ga kashmirstan"

what do you think would happen?

Obama Inauguration Brings Hope, Scepticism Law and Order in the richest secular country in the world!

Cops seek divine help to curb crimes
Patna: In the drive to make Bihar a crime-free state, the police have sought divine intervention by performing special prayers at the railway stations to prevent any wrongdoing in trains.

Special prayers were organised by the Government Railway Police (GRP) at the Ara railway station in Bhojpur district, which is about 60 km from Patna.

Four killed in police encounter

To ensure smooth and peaceful travel in trains, officer-in-charge of the GRP Vinod Kumar, the brain behind the move to seek divine intervention, performs prayers every full moon night.

"We perform prayers every month for maintaining law and order in the trains," Kumar said.

Punjab students take Munnabhai route to MBBS

http://news.indiainfo.com/2009/01/14/0901140658_punjab_students_munn abhai _route_mbbs.html

Punjab: Hundreds of Munnabhai's have attained MBBS degrees in Punjab in the past few years, with assistance from nine gangs. The Punjab Police identified 35 persons who provided assured seats in medical colleges to students.

The police have sought arrest warrants for 27 persons involved in the operations, which were spread across Delhi, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, and Chandigarh.

The gangs lured aspirants with promised seats in medical colleges. They would hook up intelligent medicos to appear for the pre-medical entrance test on their behalf. IPS officer LK Yadav, who has been investigating the racket, said an aspirant would pay Rs 15 lakh-Rs 20 lakh for a seat in a medical college. An impostor medico would be paid Rs 5-6 lakh.

The names of members of the nine gangs were divulged to police by Balraj Singh, kingpin of one of the gangs, who was arrested last week.

Yours is a frustrated person's response.

He probably needed it but the timing is curious after the reports that the guy is unable to heck it!

Want to Settle Abroad? Offer a Plane to God!
JALANDHAR | JAN 21, 2009
PRINT SHARE COMMENTS
Want to seek greener pastures abroad? Come to a gurudwara here and offer a plane and who knows your wish might get fulfilled.

This may sound strange but Punjabi youths, especially from the Doaba region, have been thronging the Gurudwara Sant Baba Nihal Singh Ji Shaheedan in Talhan to offer toy planes so that their wishes of going abroad and getting lucrative jobs are fulfilled.

Toy planes, inscribed with names of different carriers, are found in front of the Guru Granth Sahib.

It all started few months back, when the word spread that wishes of settling abroad would be fulfilled if one offers a toy plane in the shrine.

“hamidm:
I have already agreed to give Kashmir to you guys. What will you give in return.�

Little over a month ago I posted this. And now we have the Western Media and Miliband talking about Kashmir.

“Lastly, if the Jihadi groups are eliminated the army could possibly ask for a reward. The US and the other forces in the area will have to consider that too. I have some idea but it would be premature to write about that now.� /

This is interesting the victim of Mumbai is being asked to give up something…The west plays some hard games.

It is again not abt India and sooner the Indians get this out their heads the better it would be for their national mental health.

It is all about protection to the US army and a prolonged US occupation of Afghanistan. The point in a nutshell is: would the Pak army provide protection to the US. If it does, there is a reward and that reward maybe Kashmir.
Judging by the muted Indian response to Miliband’s insistence and again a UK govt’s statement today that it is just following its stated policy, we are in for some really great times.
This is interesting that India has to switch PM in the middle of the game. Parnab takes over as PM after a fake heart trouble for Manmohan Singh. Now the question is would India remain in the game or back out.

Zionist Aspirations in Palestine
by Anstruther Mackay

"Any attempt at the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine, unless under the bayonets of one of the powers of the League of Nations, would undoubtedly end in a 'pogrom,' to escape from which in Europe is the Jew's main idea in coming to Syria. This hostility to the Jews is a bond of union between the Arab Moslems and the Christians, and nowhere in the East do these two denominations live in greater harmony, despite the traditional enmity between the Crescent and the Cross. (The Moslem-Christian Association was formed in 1918, with headquarters in Jaffa, to fight the policy of the Zionist Commission.)

It will be seen that, to fulfill their aspirations, the Zionists must obtain the armed assistance of one of the European powers, presumably Great Britain, or of the United States of America."

"there was a significant middle eastern Jewish population there already"

NOT TRUE at all! from 1920 after the signing of Balfour dec.

"But the Syrian province of Palestine, about one hundred and fifty miles long and fifty miles broad, largely mountainous and sterile, contains at present a population of more than 650,000, divided as follows: Mohammedan Arabs, 515,000; Jews, 63,000; Christian Arabs, 62,000; nomadic Bedouins, 50,000; unclassified, 5000. Of these the Mohammedans and Christians are to a man bitterly opposed to any Zionist claims, whether made by would-be rulers or by settlers."

The Palestinian Puzzle
I think when people talk about invaders they are not doing justice. Not everyone who came from the Persia, Arab lands or Turkey was an invader.

The Ghoris and the Ghaznavi came with barely ten thousand or less fighter and beat the sh1t out. After that most of the people came for jobs and better economic future. They should be considered regular economic migrants not invaders.

The last invader Abadli had mostly local forces when he fought at Panipat. Even during the British days economic migrants from Afghanistan, iraq, iran kept coming to India. So India offered an economic opportunity to lots of people like the US is doing now and the people that are coming to the US are not invaders...they are using H1b quota!

Abused Husbands Let me clarify my post below.

I don't torture!

Abused Husbands Most of the people posting on this thread abuse their spouses excluding the one who can't have a spouse ever and you know who you are.

My post is just informational and should be excluded from the rest of the posts here in evaluating the statement above. Thanks.

"The issue in palestine is basically land. A land feud. It is not like the palestinians dont have a choice of living a peaceful life - they could have done so past 60 years by assimilating in other arab nations and focussed on giving their children good education so they were not dependent on land for a living anyway (as my people did in Pakistan, for example, or as millions have done elsewhere in south asia, taiwan, and so on)."

Interesting! it was Palestinians fault that they did not leave an area where they lived for centuries to accommodate some people coming from Europe. How cruel of Palestinian!

How is that the Israeli could not work with other nations in Europe and lived there and find some accommodation there?

If We go by your reasoning here is how it would be like: Some 200,000 Europeans decide to settle in Pindi and ask your family to vacate their homes, jobs, and other possession and move to Iran so that the Europeans have a comfortable life. I guess your solution is unique and defies logic to say the least.

“I have obviously failed to get across an obvious point across to you - no one cares what happened in 1948. “

I guess you don’t but you are a minority. 1948 is significant because the mandate called for two states and we only have one state at this time. How could anyone forget history and not worry about the past at all? If I go by your incredibly ridiculous assertions two WWs never happened and India is still a slave nation. There were some events that impacted the future and they will continue to impact the solutions.


“if one started correcting historical grievances, where would one stop?? I dont see millions of people in India and Pakistan whining about 1947 “

What the f are these Indians doing on this site? Especially the people you call Pundit hate. They hate 1947 and want to reverse it. 1947 is very much alive ask any Indian on this site. It is all about the partition and their hatred of the partition brings them here and abuse you regularly.

“- and yet the tragedy of 1947 affected millions of lives, eclipsing anything suffered by the palestinians. “

No and yes. Every nation counts their wounds as the biggest anyone could have suffered. More people died in Russia around the time when Holocaust was happening. How many talk about more than ten million dead Russians and central Asians just before and around the Second World War?

“And please stop presenting me with NYT to read as if I just live in the amazon jungle, unaware of what is going on outside my village.�

After looking at your posts not only me, but anyone who has some understanding of the issues would not believe you. Sounds like you have no idea what the history of the conflict is, where people stand and what they do. You sure don’t look like you know any thing outside the village.

The Palestinian Puzzle Btw Tahmed you should read this too.

The Palestinian Puzzle Tahemd

"what is in fact an academic question in 2009, namely "Can you remember what 1948 mandate was and why only one part of the mandate is implemented?".

Why is this an academic question? Is this the first time Israel and Palestinians are fighting?
There is a long history of the conflict and how could you call one part of the history just academic and the other part operational?
Israel attacked Gaza and has created a humanitrian crisis and that is not the first time they have done it.
W/o looking in to history, we can not discuss this subject...Nothing in done in isolation in the international affairs.
