[Reader-list] Pune: Hindutva terror?

Tue Feb 16 15:57:55 IST 2010

Yes, well said Mr. Pawan, Mr. Aditya It’s a fashion now to blame Hindu on any terrorist attack by such fanatics/fascists. Samjauta express attack was pointed on Hindu by similar fanatics but they proved wrong. It's bitter situation that such mindset increasing in India and with such mindset country cannot freed from terrorism unless we act strictly with iron hand. But, congress not showing any such will and do not want to come out from vote-bank politics of the minor appeasement to fight the terrorism.

However, Mr. Chidambaram succeed little bit as Home minister (since he was totally failure as finance minister) and able to strengthen our intelligence and security compared to his predecessor. Actually terrorist prime target was Asho Ashram and nearby hotel but due to tight security prevailing their due to earlier input given by intelligence agency, they made attack at nearby situated German bakery.

Thanks
Bipin

Good one Javed !

This group would probably support you well for a well deserved Subject line.
Very intelligently you are trying to serve your "Deen" by using this method.

Coming from this group is no surprise , as it was this group which started
to doubt Batla House as well.

Good Going .... ..... Do i hear claps....????

I am sure , India would have many more partitions..... inflicted by 1000
cuts and the handlers  of "non state actors".

The ordinary citizens gets satisfied by candle light vigils , while ignoring
the threats in the name of "sickularism".

And for the intelligent ones....pls let me know where do i get designer
candles.....!!!

Hurt !!!

Pawan

PS : My heart cries out for all victimes , especially the brother sister
from WB.
