Sorry 26 January


The Democrats should put up George Clooney as their presidential nominee he will win hands down and the Right will be swept away into the Sea. And then he will come to India as chief guest on 26 April next year. Just think


Regional parties cannot look beyond the borders of their state, if they had a national vision, they would have joined the INDIA alliance and launched a project of reparative justice or repairing harm done to our society- disappointed Mr Naidu!


Will misguided sections of the right wing please stop calling Rahul Gandhi derogatory names! He has proved his mettle in politics and deserves to be respected, name calling reflects adversely on the name caller, it is the product of everything negative.


People drunk on power should remember that Nemesis goddess of retributive justice stalks overweening arrogance or hubris, In Sahir’s words Aadmi ko chayiye waqt se Dar kar rahe, Kaun Jane kis ghadi waqt ka badle mijaz


Yeh public hai sab jaanti hai, thought of Rajesh Khanna on whom this apt song was picturized


Ideal leader, kind compassionate and with a sense of self deprecating humour, dedicated to peace and harmony, what else?


I don’t know who will form the government, but I hope he has a sense of self deprecating humour, that he is kind and compassionate, that his heart beats for the people, that he does not take potshots at his opponents, and that he brings peace and harmony, I dream for my country.


These elections have become a theatre of the absurd


Surveys during UPA’s time established that most Muslims. belong to the poorest strata of Indian society; they have claim on resources because they are disadvantaged not because they are Muslims, society is responsible for poverty so society has to compensate the poor: simple.


Since when did redistribution become a bad word? As members of a political community we are responsible for the well-being of our fellow citizens, such an unequal society is not only obscene it is politically a tinderbox


The mention of buffaloes in this election brought an old Bollywood song to mind, Meri bhaans ko danda kyo Mara, it was picturized on Mehmood right? We remember Bollywood songs but forget the film, that is the power of music


Some Mughal Monarchs destroyed places of worship of other communities for personal glory and wealth, others did not! Hindu mobs destroyed the Babri Masjid for electoral gain, many Indians respect other religions, history is complex not linear


Eid Mubarak to all, may this auspicious day bring peace to our troubled country, may our ruling classes discover the virtues of generosity civility and harmony,
