Punjab and UP both have started facing the music and we can see new relations in making and breaking too. It was interesting to see Capt Amrendra and Badal at opposite ends and Amar Singh and Mulayam joining the forces. Great going indeed.

Every act of human beings is done with a selfish motive. It is others who may like it or dislike it. Good to read the name of Sartre between debates on beef and Tipu.

What is full form of TBM and what was the medicine so that others can be careful. Yes side effects are a problem.

Insensitivity and casting aspersions is the new political mantra in the country. When politicians start throwing muck at each other you know an election is an year away. It is now Punjab's turn to do so.

vijay replied to the topic Mulayam Singh's Birthday Celebration.
Spending crores on birthday celebrations by leaders shows highest form of insensitivity toward the common man, It also shows how they think that they are god's gift to mankind and thus mere mortals should celebrate there coming on earth. Shameful but what can be done. Reputed artistes also perform by force or by choice or money power.

The link provided by mohan manohar should be gone through by all but especially by emotionally charged supporters of Sanskrit. The author states that computer languages have to be logical for obvious reasons. A study of existing languages has shown that Sanskrit is very near to logic in languages especially the positioning of the words which mean the same thing at particular positions although the word may be same. The second language with this property is Latin. Sanskrit is not used as a computer language as is claimed bu some members in the forum. Also the article reinforces the widely held factual view that it is a difficult language to learn and was not a language of the masses. Therefore a rishi here and a reformer there learning the language does not alter this fact. It ie very well known that reformists and rishis are always handful on this planet and elsewhere, just like Gandhi and Netaji will be once in thousands of years. What has that got to do with Sanskrit is not clear. Supporters of Samskrit should become realistic and not use emotion and adjectives without substance. This is doing a disservice to the cause of Sanskrit. Nobody including me doubts the greatness of Sanskrit. I also want it to remain alive. The issue got into debate when it was said that it will replace today's languages.

and millions unlike today when we have more leaders than followers!!!!
Although I in favor of promotion of Sanskrit, but it is almost impossible to use this as a spoken language and medium of study. But we must be learn it.
Although impracticable, I challenge the Sanskrit enthusiasts to publish a Sanskrit daily-paper or internet edition and run this at least for a month. Then their enthusiasm and senseo logic will be tested.

Celebrating leaders' birthday lavishly is common to most political parties. This is very undesirable.
