Seven  million  voters, nearly  35 percent of whom were female  clear message in support of democracy to the world, including to anti-election groups , stressing that nothing can stop them from exercising their constitutional right to elect a new leader and, more importantly, that they rejected the dictatorial  dictum. War torn Afghanistan experienced defining moment as millions of Afghans braved suicide attacks, roadside bombs, intimidations and even unexpected stormy weather conditions on Saturday, to take part in the presidential (and provincial council) elections.As per media reports Taliban issued statements denouncing elections and threatened to punish anyone associated with the process. However, a string of violent attacks leading to elections failed to dissuade Afghans from voting, but took the lives of dozens of civilians and security forces.Vote counting is well underway in Afghanistan after Saturday’s landmark poll to elect a new president. If no candidate wins more than 50% of the vote, there will be another round of voting between the top two candidates.
 
Obama has congratulated the people of Afghanistan on the historic elections which he said promise to usher in the first democratic transfer of power in the war-ravaged country.
“On behalf of the American people, I congratulate the millions of Afghans who enthusiastically participated in the historic elections, which promise to usher in the first democratic transfer of power in Afghanistan’s history,” Obama said in a statement on Saturday. 
“The elections represent another important milestone in Afghans taking full responsibility for their country as the United States and our partners draw down our forces,” he said. 
A day after millions of Afghans exercised their franchise for Presidential elections defying the Taliban threat, Obama commended the Afghan people, security forces, and elections officials on the turnout for voters, which he said “is in keeping with the spirited and positive debate among candidates and their supporters in the run-up to the election.” 
“These elections are critical to securing Afghanistan’s democratic future, as well as continued international support,” Obama said. 
“We look to the Afghan electoral bodies to carry out their duties in the coming weeks to adjudicate the results – knowing that the most critical voices on the outcome are those of Afghans themselves,” he said. 
Obama also paid tributes to the many Americans military and civilian – who have sacrificed so much to support the Afghan people as they take responsibility for their own future. 
“The US continues to support a sovereign, stable, unified, and democratic Afghanistan, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with the new government chosen by the Afghan people on the basis of mutual respect and mutual accountability,” the US President said. 
The front-runners to succeed Afghan President Hamid Karzai are former foreign minister Zalmai Rassoul, Abdullah Abdullah – runner up in the 2009 election – and former World Bank academic Ashraf Ghani. 
If no candidate wins more than 50 percent of the vote in the first round – preliminary results for which will be announced on 24th April – a run-off is scheduled for late May.

Comedian Vir Das goes Dark!!

7042014
Vir Das who is known for his stand up comedies and doing comedy roles in the movies is all set to come out of his comfort zone in Revolver Rani.

Vir Das whose name is synonymous with Comedy, for the 1st time will be seen playing an out and out dark character in the film.

A source close to the team said, ‘Vir Das has done a completely different role this time. He is playing the role of Kangana’s Toy Boy who does some desperate things to woo her for his ulterior motive. He has played a very different character and we are sure that people would be surprised to see him in such a role as he always does comedy.

Well, with this we can just say that Vir Das surely knows how to keep his audiences interested!!


 

AAP : BJP returns to its communal agenda

7042014
 Aam Aadmi Party is surprised at the unprecedented situation whereby the BJP has released its manifesto on the very day that the country has gone to elections. It seems that the BJP does not regard the North-Eastern states, which are going to polls today, significant enough to give them time to consider their agenda and policies.  We are also surprised that the Election Commission gave permission for the release of the manifesto, given the fact that there was no means of regulating that the live TV release was not telecast in regions going to the polls today.
While the BJP pays lip-service to combating corruption and reducing the black economy, it is clear that they are not serious about this agenda. Firstly, they do not promise amendments in the Lokpal Bill, which can bring about strong and independent Lokpal which can effectively curb corruption. Secondly, nor do they promise any electoral reforms which are the starting point for the flow of the black economy.  However, we are happy to note that following the lead of the Aam Aadmi Party, the BJP too has talked about moving from a representative to a participatory democracy and empowering Gram Sabhas. The BJP’s manifesto also maintains a silence on the gas pricing issue, and do not give any concrete policies on the transparent and equitable use of natural resources.
However, the most worrying part of BJP’s election manifesto – in line with the recent speeches of their party leaders – is the reiteration of their communal agenda. With the promise rebuilding the Ram Mandir and abrogation of Article 370 in their manifesto the BJP has shown that the agenda of ‘development’ was a short-term farce and that communal and divisive policies are their true agenda.

Lobsang Sangay: Chinese National?

Lobsang Sangay: Chinese National?
By Maura Moynihan | Apr 7th, 2014
When Steven Spielberg recently announced that he is shifting his film production to a spanking new 2.5 billion dollar facility in Shanghai, one wondered if the director of Schindler’s List was briefed about the millions of Chinese people murdered by Mao’s regime and the millions still imprisoned in China’s labor camp system. The legitimization of China’s one party dictatorship continues apace, but not everyone is on board for the ride; at the recent DAVOS Economic Forum, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe gave a powerful oration telling the western powers that they should make clear whose side they are on; Communist China, or Asia’s democratic states, Japan and India chief among them.
India is one of the few nations left standing that can mount a moral and strategic defense against China’s rise. While western nations can appease Communist China, India must contend with increasing Chinese military incursions into Indian territory, from occupied Tibet. India has given sanctuary to thousands of Tibetan refugees, notably Tibetan Buddhists who are persecuted by the Chinese state for practicing their ancient faith. Thus the pro-China stance of the Tibetan exile prime minister based in Dharamshala, Lobsang Sangay, is all the more disturbing.
In his May 2013 speech at the Council on Foreign Relations in Washington, Sangay stated that henceforth the Tibetan movement would abandon democracy as a goal, accept communist rule in Tibet in its present structure, and accede to China’s full “discretion” in militarizing the Tibetan plateau. This took many by surprise, but Sangay’s pro-China drift has been some time in coming. While studying at Harvard Law School, Mr. Sangay made a very public alliance with Ms. Hu Xiaojiang, whom intelligence sources identify as a Chinese Ministry of State Security co-optee. Hu is so trusted by the Chinese government that it allowed her access to the ultra-sensitive government archives in Lhasa to research her 2003 Ph.D. thesis on Chinese migration into Tibet. (Hu makes special note of Sangay in her acknowledgements).
In a defensive speech before the Tibetan exile parliament in Dharamshala on March 22, 2014, Sangay tried to evade questions over his use of “Overseas Chinese National” travel papers on an academic junket to Beijing and Shanghai in 2005. Sangay had long denied that he made this trip on “Overseas Chinese National” papers until he was confronted with irrefutable evidence in 2011( a clip of this exchange can be seen on You Tube). The issue of concern is his willingness to declare himself a Chinese citizen while continuing to hold a Tibetan refugee identity card issued by the Indian government.
In the same speech before the Tibetan parliament, Sangay also refused to explain how he managed to pay off a $227,000 mortgage just one week before he was inaugurated as the exile prime minister. In all representative democracies, candidates must disclose the source of their finances, but Sangay will not explain how, just four years after buying a house near Boston, he paid off a quarter-million dollar mortgage in full, and with such fortuitous timing. No one would begrudge him his good fortune if he has a patron who supports Tibetan democracy, so why is he unable to provide a full account of how his mortgage disappeared overnight?
Prior to the grilling he received in Dharamshala, Sangay gave a public talk on March 5, 2014, at the Washington headquarters of the National Endowment for Democracy, where he stated that his abandonment of democracy and acquiescence to Chinese militarization is no different than the policy laid out in a memorandum issued by his predecessor, but a careful reading of this document shows Mr. Sangay’s assertion to be insupportable. Sangay went on to describe how he is portrayed in Tibetan thankas (religious paintings) in the place of a deity. He claimed that he had received His Holiness’s approval, and moreover that His Holiness had reasoned that other laypeople like past Chinese emperors had also been portrayed in thankas.
What does Sangay’s comparison of himself to a Chinese emperor does reveal about his ambitions? When Sangay stated that he embraced Chinese communist rule, the courageous Beijing-based Tibetan writer Tsering Woeser said she felt like she had been “punched in the gut.” Woeser joked that Mr. Sangay should join the Communist party since he wants to be the “Obama of China” a reference to a talk Mr. Sangay gave back in 2008, when he said “I nominate myself as the next president of China.”
In this context, Mr. Sangay’s language regarding His Holiness the Dalai Lama is cause for concern. In a 2003 article entitled “Tibet: Exiles’ Journey”, Sangay refers to His Holiness the Dalai Lama as “the Lama” fifteen times, a level of disrespect usually seen only in Chinese Communist propaganda. In this same article, Mr. Sangay describes the old Tibet as “feudal” and Buddhist monks as “reactionary”.  Again, this is language seen in Chinese propaganda tracts about Tibet, as a Google search of Xinhua articles will reveal. As India faces a growing threat across the Himalayas from Chinese-occupied Tibet, it must ask itself: who is this ambitious young Tibetan exile politician, what are his ambitions, and where are his loyalties?


 

$1500b 51,000 MoU – Failed Gujarat?

$1500b 51,000 MoU – Failed Gujarat? 10b Posters 0.8b Voters
April07, 2014
This is in response to Debates on Gujarat Model implementation on India scale.
BJP has undertaken Black Money funded program – over 1000 crore Mady
Posters, Picture and advertisements everywhere are already released
for only 80 crore voters. But it is TOTAL FLOP SHOW in Gujarat. A
Lunatic is BEING DUMPED on India, Who Had Total Failure in Gujarat.
http://www.vibrantgujarat.com/images/pdf/Manufacturing-Sector-Profile.pdf
On Page 9 of VG 2013 Brochure on Manufacturing – Mady admits to just
$26.4B as Gross GDP contribution out of $75b StateGDP. Gujarat has
developed 60 SEZs, 12 Special Investment Zones, besides over 182
Industrial Estates. But you can see on page 23, Mady admits to Rs.4481
crores of FDI or just $1b from 1991-2011 in 20 years in Manufacturing
Sector, This is 12.66% of Gujarat.
THIS IMPLIES GUJARAT ATTRACTED NOT EVEN $8B
IN 20 YRS INCLUDING 10 YRS – 12 YRS OF MADY.
Gujarat signed $1500b worth 51,000 MoUs at six Vibrant Gujarat
Summits. But no Invest Materialized in last 3 years – Why?
1.]  Gujarat Failed to implement Sardar Sarovar Narmada Canal Project
economically and even after wasting 5-6 times capital required
utilization is not even 6%.
6.25 BCM Surface Water For 80% Gujarat – Even That Not Reaching
2.] Out of 38 BCM of surface water in Gujarat on page 54 you can see
just 6.25 BCM is available for 80% of the Gujarat State comprising
Saurashtra, Kutchh, North Gujarat regions. Drought impacted Gujarat
severely in 2011 and 2012 seasons and 2013 was severe flood year.
6.25 BCM  IS NOT EVEN SUFFICIENT FOR MUNICIPAL WATER NEEDS OF 50M
POPULATION LIKELY TO EXCEED 70M BY 2050.
3.]  Cost of Power is well over Rs.7 per unit because of Excess
Capacity & Low PLF, High Cost Renewable Energy.
4.]  Poor Education & Health of workers Gujarat is Unfit for HIGH-TECH
Industry.
5.]  What is Most Shocking – Gujarat wanted Foreign & Indian investors
to INVEST in even SEWAGE DISPOSAL and SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANTS in PPP
Mode.
MOST OF THE TAX COLLECTED WAS SWINDLED
6.  Gujarat currently reports Rs.675,000 crores SGDP but Tax
Collection is just Rs.75,000 crore and Gujarat borrows Rs.30,000
crores to FUND Plan Budget and Social Sector.
7.]  Mady made a ‘Unique Promise To Investors in January2007′ but
nothing moved.
[A Unique Promise To All The Investors - Apka Investment, Hamara
Commitment, Sabka Development.]
8.]  CRONY Capitalism or Promotion of Adani & Ambani by Mady Dried Up
FDI & Indian Investments in Gujarat.
9.]  On the PAYROLLS of Corporate He Kept WAGES DOWN – Didn’t even
Attract Talent from Outside Gujarat to Efficiently Execute Projects.
1. SUFALAM SUJALAM Yojana,
2. 80M Coastal Canal Project,
3. Hugely Overdesigned Sardar Sarovar Canal, and
4. Program to fill over 180 Dams with Narmada Canal Waters.

NO TO FDI IN RETAIL IN BJP MANIFESTO

7042014

NO TO FDI IN RETAIL IN BJP MANIFESTO WELCOMED BY TRADERS
RETAIL TRADE WILL BE LIBERATED FROM CLUTCHES OF MNC’S & CORPORATES-CAIT
The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT), apex body of the business community of the Country has welcomed the stand of BJP in saying a clear cut No to FDI in Retail in its poll manifesto released here today at New Delhi. The CAIT has hoped that if BJP is voted to power in current elections it will not hesitate to rescind the current notification of FDI in Retail as already committed by BJP leadership time and again in the past. The CAIT has complimented the BJP leadership for inclusion of various issues raised by CAIT in its poll manifesto.
CAIT National President Mr. B.C. Bhartia and Secretary General Mr. Praveen Khandelwal in a joint statement said that the steps taken by the BJP will go miles ahead in liberating the retail trade from the clutches of not only the MNCs but even from the vicious net of big corporate houses who were considering the retail trade as a profit centre by entering into partnership with MNCs. This unhealthy circle encouraged and promoted by the present UPA Government will certainly come to an end.
Both Mr. Bhartia and Mr. Khandelwal said that the CAIT is preparing a comparative chart of different political parties stating their stand on trader’s issues and the same will be released very shortly. They further said that the said comparative chart will also be sent to more than 20 thousand trade associations across the Country which will enable the traders to take a decision whom to support in current poll battle.
Both Mr. Bhartia and Mr. Khandelwal beside FDI in Retail, the BJP has also committed to review obsolete and multiple laws to reduce and simplify them beside ensuring easy availability of institutional credit. It has also affirmed to simplify and rationalise the tax structure and to dispense multiple license system and to upgrade and modernise the retail trade. The BJP has also affirmed to set up a strong regulatory framework for the non banking finance companies which on the one hand will provide ample opportunities to small traders to avail easy finance from NBFCs and will also protect the investors. The trade leaders said that these are some of the core issues being raised by the CAIT from time to time and their inclusion in BJP manifesto will certainly bring a cohesive and trade friendly atmosphere in the Country if BJP is comes to power.
There are more than 6 crore business enterprises in the Country which provides employment to more than 25 crore people while generating an annual turnover of more than 20 lakh crores of rupees and contributing nearly 15% to National GDP with an annual growth rate of 15%. The BJP decision on FDI in Retail is expected to have wider impact on large number of traders across the Country as far as current polls are concerned.

Congress on verge of defeat in General Election 2014

Congress on verge of defeat in General Election 2014

The oldest political outfit of India The Congress Party is nearly 125yrs old and has shown the nation the way to rule the country with its grand leaders.
All India Congress Party set is foot prints in India in 1888 by some foreign intellectuals for the people of India to have an opportunity to participate in the governance of the nation from local level to national levels.Party reached its zenith of glory during pre-independence era because of grand leaders struggling to get swaraj to its totality. British before handing over the powers in India made an agreement which blinded the nation with its bonded technique which gave fierce teeth to the administrators, and the rulers of today with secretive phenomenon to clad them with adm -veil.
After India freedom Congress Party was the main political outfit and remained in such significance till 1967 and thereafter the Congress shed its image but came to its apex out of people emotion surfacing after the assassination of Mrs Indira Gandhi and assumption of her son Mr Rajiv Gandhi as the PM with more than two third majority and later years saw the deep decline in Congress image.
India general election of the year 2014 in which the Congress leaders have conceded and their image is at its lowest level.
Congress party and it’s leaders have not been able to create warmth amongs it’s cadre.Leaders have lost ground from local level to national level.
Many Congress leaders have shown their pessimissim in this ensuing general election.
The growing number of scams and rampant corruption prevailing in the nation is sordid affair.
Galloping rise in prices have proved fatal to commoner and the Congress party for it to garner vote in this context.
Arrogance of the leader who in turn lost touch with their people , lost their humility and could not find their workers to support them in their whole hearted support.
Furthermore PM not being from the grassroots and belongs to executive category is essentially fond of foreign jaunts and dabble more in International views,he further enjoyed globalization of India and thus inviting foreign companies but in turn putting bottlenecks in their holistic entry . It was observed the easy entry was for fes and helping and assisting selective MNC to get in Indian market.
PM Mr Singh built his image more of a PUPPET rather than of sovereign mind of this sovereign republic.
His contribution of his foreign relation from which his credit could be derived is more technology has come in which has given growth to this part of world.
