Sweet corn has more fiber. This fiber can cure digestion related problems. For constipation sweet corn acts effectively.

This is something that I would totally agree with, size hardly matters ! India and Indian leaders can be very complacent where border issues are concerned and Pakistan is like a wounder tiger thirsting for revenge, willing to go any length to cause as much damage as it can even if it may not be able to take over Kashmir, but what is being done is causing enough harm . Kashmiris are taking sides and openly showing it which in itself is bad enough. Army is continuously being used and abused by the Kashmiri government as and when it suits them ..

I love sweet corn too. I like to have boiled sweet corn with some salt and pepper. It taste delicious.
I read in one of the article that it has lot of antioxidants which is actually increased by cooking the corn. Usually cooking destroys the nutritious properties of the food, but its opposite in this case.
Apparently even tomatoes and spinach become more nutritive when they are boiled..This is precisely why we should never throw any water in which vegetables are cooked. I see many cookery shows where they show the chefs draining out water after cooking which is such a waste...

usha manohar replied to the topic Rafi remembered.
Rafi's voice was used by OP. Nayyar in many movies. Of course Mukesh sang for Rajkapoor in most of the Movies. Exception was Do Ustad, a Raj Kapoor, madhubala starrer. Rafi sang for Raj kappor. EERA Rarka, Worli Ka Naka... is one og the songs. Hemant Kumar sang for Dev. The interlude bits were played by RD on Mouth Organ in the song, Hai Apna Dil...
You are parroting my post in the first half and the rest is disjointed ..not sure how Dev anand and Hemant kumar come in probably found its way from some link online !
However the song pictured on Kishore is sung in playback by Md Rafi!! The song is I think is"ajab hai dastaan teri yeh zindagi --' I could be wrong also.
This song was from the film Shararat which had Kishore Kumar playing a double role ( Meena Kumari and Kum Kum) and one of them had Kishore singing for himseland the other had Rafi singing..

usha manohar replied to the topic Remembering Rajesh Khanna on his death anniversary.
Rajesh Khanna was a trend setter in many ways - his colorful kurtas with collars, longish hair and head shaking were all unique and a rage with the younger crowd. He was able to draw crowds just by his presence which was proved in Andaz where he has a guest role and a song Zindgi ek safar hai suhana ..

Will India breakup? Probably not, but one cannot forecast the future. I went to the Soviet Union 35 times and could never imagine the mighty soviet state will break up. It did into 18 countries. India was monolith country and yet broke in 1947 on the two nation theory. In 1971 Pakistan broke up . So one can't say what will happen 50 years hence.
Of course, Future can't be predicted. What according to you is the right course with a dangerous enemy in our neighborhood. As you first said, Martial law should be imposed seeing the present conditions in Kashmir. It's a fact that Kashmir is in turmoil. Can Modi convince the president to impose Martial Law or any such suitable act to establish peace in the Valley ?

Our neighboring country, Pakistan had Martial law many times but this is by way of coup and unconstitutionally removing a lawful govt. This virtually means that the elected govt. is forcibly removed from power and replaced by military junta. In appropriate circumstances, there is provision of proclaiming emergency- external aggression, internal disturbance, financial crisis.
AFSPA and Martial Law are one and the same ?. If so, before imposing Martial Law, has the Government obtained the approval of the president? I understand, without the approval of the President either Martial Law or AFSPA cannot be promulgated. Please clarify.
Martial law is rule by Military and flows from " doctrine of necessity" which was upheld by Pak Supreme CourT. AFSPA is entirely different as it just gives immunity and some limited powers to the armed forces in a disturbed area. The civil authority remains in power.
