Kapil Sibal comes to the Rescue of Kashmir’s Cable Operators
For decades now, Kashmiri Muslims have held the Government of India responsible for all their woes. This is because the Government of India time and again allowed the ruling National Conference to rig elections and run a corrupt, uncaring and authoritarian regime in Jammu and Kashmir. Whenever Kashmiris rose in...

When Congress State Governments Snubbed Modi’s Request for Additional Police Force
During a hearing of a Gujarat riots case, the Supreme Court chastised the Gujarat government for being modern day Neros. However, this adjective has stuck to Modi’s name. Compared to many other epithets used against Modi, this is actually the least vicious. There is no denying that due to incompet...

None of those who who sent me epistles of outrage have dealt with the facts presented by leading and credible Muslims of Gujarat.&nb...

These responses received till 11th April 2013 are being published without any editorial intervention Dear Madhu, This is beautifully crafted. I was in the Prime Minister's Office when the outrage in Maliana occurred. What shocked me most was the callousness of the then Chief Minister Veer Bahadur Si...
 
Mixed Responses to Modinama
These responses received till 11th April 2013 are being published without any editorial intervention. Madhu ji, I admire your sense of fairplay, unbiased research, fearlessness and objective search of truth, although I am not convinced that Modi is entirely a victim of circumstances beyond his control. We think th...
 
Nightlife in Ahmedabad
Some Glimpses
Even though I have not yet had the time to study the law and order situation in Gujarat, when I was visiting Ahmedabad, one of my twitter followers from the city wrote to me saying “While you are there, go visit a police station. You would be shocked (pleasantly)”. There was visible pride in his...
