Last updated on: October 16, 2012 at 12:44 pm By Desh Kapoor

In this day and age of celebrity egos and anger, it is interesting to come across someone who is comfortable being what he is and trying to make sure his work is worth something. In Quora today, I came across an interesting question on Satyan Gajwani, the CEO of Times Internet. How did Satyan Gajwani become Times Internet CEO at just 27? The question is obviously pointing to a certain answer, which could be an embarrassment to Satyan. Well, I... Read more

Imran Khan backs Taliban, says its Jihad is just and Islamic

Last updated on: October 15, 2012 at 9:55 pm By Desh Kapoor

At Drishtikone, we have asserted that Imran Khan is even more of a Jihadi than the other parties in Pakistan. Those who think that he is God’s gift to Pakistan and that his becoming the next head of state for Pakistan may solve any problems, are living in lala-land. Pakistan is fast and furiously headed to Talibanization of the worst kind. Notwithstanding the solidarity with Malala, there are enough who suggest that Malala is a proxy for the Western powers...

Characterizing BJP as State Enemy and "Being Hindu" synonymous to "Being Communal" will be disastrous

Last updated on: October 15, 2012 at 2:22 pm By Desh Kapoor

The Jangipur Lok Sabha seat became vacant as Pranab Mukherjee became the President. So his son, Abhijit Mukherjee contested it and barely scrapped through. BJP’s Sudhangshu Biswas polled 85,887 votes, which is 10% of the votes. It seems that last time, BJP got 2%. This time, Pranab’s son won by mere 2,536 votes. So what does the Congress have to say about this? Says State Congress leader and former state minister Manas Bhunia: “It is a dangerous political situation. It... Read more

Digivjay Singh, the faithful Sonia Dog dutifully attacks Kejriwal

Last updated on: October 15, 2012 at 1:37 pm By Desh Kapoor

Digvijay the Sonia’s pet dog is out in the open yet again. He is now targeting Arvind Kejriwal with his idiotic stuff. That’s what he does. Attack anyone who dares Congress or Sonia family with falsehoods and nonsense. And media? Well the mainstream media likes to lick off his hand as well. “He came to me in 2005 or 2006 and requested me that I should promote his name with (Congress President) Mrs Sonia Gandhi to be made a member...

Political Opposition to Obama is really Over the Top Racism from Republicans!

Last updated on: October 15, 2012 at 11:38 am By Desh Kapoor

It is no secret that Republicans have a huge number of supporters who are racist to a point of being mean and even violent. While I have seen some effects of racism in Texas (with some neighbor’s kids scribbling racist stuff on my drive-way; but parents reprimanding them thankfully – where did they learn that though?); I didn’t quite comprehend the extent of hatred that is there in the Midwest belt specifically and religiously passioned in the US. This is... Read more

Alang, largest global ship breaking center – a boon or a curse?

Last updated on: October 14, 2012 at 1:42 pm By Desh Kapoor

Half of all the ships dismantled and broken down at the end of life in the world end up in Alang, Gujarat in Gulf of Khambhat. Alang is 50 kms south east of Bhavnagar. Until the late 1990s, ship breaking was primarily centered around the developed world, but with growing costs in the West and low labor cost arbitrage in some developing countries along with less restrictive laws made it profitable to move the ship breaking work here. However, the... Read more

Salman Khurshid and his wife SHOULD be thrown into jail: Operation Dhritrashtra

Last updated on: October 13, 2012 at 10:02 pm By Desh Kapoor

Questioning Sonia Gandhi using RTI is right of Tax Payer not Breach of her Privacy!

Last updated on: October 13, 2012 at 8:41 pm By Desh Kapoor

I don’t expect a guy who has never won a single election in his life and yet is the Prime Minister of the largest democracy in the world, to understand the foundational underpinnings of a democratic structure. Dr. Manmohan Singh has done a lot of things in his tenure as PM. A tenure which I am convinced will go down in ignominy when history of this nation is read 100 years from now. It will be hard for people to... Read more

JK Rowlings researches Sikhism in depth for her next novel

Last updated on: October 13, 2012 at 5:35 pm By Desh Kapoor

Generally, one has seen Sikhs being treated with various emotions – fear, derision, anger from unknown – outside India specifically. In the books and movies coming from the West, Indians in general and Sikhs in particular, are always caricatured. So it is nice to learn that writer of the Harry Potter series, JK Rowlings has spent a lot of time researching Sikh Culture and Religion before incorporating it in her next book – The Casual Vacancy. As per people who... Read more
