Sitting with Musharraf, Sudheendra Kulkarni praises Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar in Pakistan, (I can see both of them sitting with Musharraf) . In which country a person will be allowed to say as he said on Tuesday in Pakistan that Kashmir is a 'core' issue between India and Pakistan". Congress has it's own ways of frindship with enemy countries.
Incidentally he is selling and attending the book launch former Foreign Minister of Pakistan. He says It was not JINNAH but Nehru and Gandhi responsible for partition of India. Every Pakistani Chanel is only too eager to interview him.

RAMAKRISHNAN. A answered the question Is it the right way to protest?.
The protest is a symbolic one against the rising intolerance in the society. It began as a protest against the silence of Sahitya Academy who did not condemn the killing of their fellow writers. After a long silence, the Academy supported the writers by passing a resolution and asked the State Governments and the Centre to take suitable action on such issues. Further, other artists also started supporting the writers by returning their awards to the respective sources. It is a symbolic protest which proclaims that human life and freedom are more valuable than awards and recognitions. It doesn’t matter during which government's rule they received the awards.
Meanwhile, as usual, there is political fowl play by certain political parties by interfering and exploiting the situation to their favor. Whatever it may be, you have to accept the reality that intolerance exists and everyone has the right to react against it in one’s own way.

Here is not reason to oppose Sanskrit, Sanskrit in mother of all languages. Computer language is basically Sanskrit. Foreign languages also have words of Sanskrit.
Sanskrit is the mother of many language. We should be proud of the fact that Sanskrit was born in this country. It's also known as the Divine language.

Ahaha... really funny names. But Anil a joke should taken as a joke and taken lightly. Anyone should not be offended. As long as Jokes are treated as jokes, its OK. This should be borne in the minds of the people who crack jokes on others And in this respect Sardars are not an exception.
Yes it is right, it is proverb is Punjabi "Galan (Bateyn) which Gallan nikaldiya rahndi hai, Dil saf hona chaida. We never say any joke to hurt any one.

anil answered the question Which condition is more shameful to a family?.
Our constitution give right to all adults to marriage where they want. It is good thing if child marriage with the consent of parents. Parents also have some dreams for the marriage of their childern. Parents are not enemy, they are well wisher. If children want to marriage as per their choice than parents must be enquiry about the partner. If for some reason parents are not interested in marriage but children want to than parents should be give their consent. Honor killing is evil deed.

It is not right way to protest. The awards was given by acedmy and not by any government. The awards was given for writing and talent. Awards was given because people like their writing. Population of our country is 125 crores, so some evil deed of few person is not so important. In a big countries where constitution give right to speak and write what you want than some persons may be misusing this right.

Yes it is right online companies is charging higher price. I bought one massager from local market in 650/- but Naptol is charging 1500/- for it.
Of course, online shopping has some advantages and more disadvantages. Especially food stuffs. With regards to food stuffs, there is a likelihood of getting unhealthy and spurious stuff and the cost is more. If you can get like massager in local malls better go for them.
