Search for Indian Money in Switzerland Begins at Home
Posted on 06. Sep, 2011 by admin.
It has become common practice in India to blame Swiss banks for keeping Indian treasures hidden. I would suggest it is for Indian government and civil activists to establish the facts first. In repeating unfounded allegations and citing gossip, the activists distract the attention from true problem and real culprits.

Run India, Run for Your Life.
Posted on 30. Sep, 2010 by Ajay Goyal.
Tempers often run high in India. People throw tantrums over non issues – all the time. Where else on this earth young men burn buses and then immolate themselves because their favourite 74 year old film star dies a natural death. There is more emotion in real India than in most ridiculous Latin American soap [...]

What Is Your Caste Sonia?
Posted on 14. May, 2010 by Ajay Goyal.
Indian Census of 2011 will ask all Indians their caste. Nearly 300 years after British East India company created a caste based army of Indian sepoys and created an economic heirarchy based on caste, Indian Republic is going to stigmatize Indians and slur the country for ever through this census.

Let us all Say in Census: I am a Dalit
Posted on 08. May, 2010 by Ajay Goyal.
India is set do a national census and for the first time in its independent history on caste basis. Every Indian has to find and reveal his or her cast. I fear this will set the stage for a generation of conflict in India.

Posted on 07. May, 2010 by Ajay Goyal.
Indian media has gone silent about Yoga guru Swami Ramdev’s political plans. The elitist Indian media that sold news columns to politicians in the last general election and blatantly published false news for money has no time for a true man of the masses. The second biggest clown and demagogue of Indian politics Lalu Yadav [...]

Indian Cities as Hell Holes: HT
Posted on 23. Apr, 2010 by Ajay Goyal.
Hindustan Times has published a story predicting Indian cities will be dry, stinking hell holes by 2030. It is a dire and stark warning with one oversight. Many Indian cities already have hellish conditions. Water taps run dry in spring. There is no respite of any kind from scorching heat. Cars and buses puff toxic [...]

Maoist insurgents in India killed 75 paramilitary troops in a single ambush this week. Indian forces have been conducting a major co-ordinated operation against maoist insurgents that are said to control 200 of India’s 618 districts.

To School, then. By Law.
Posted on 11. Apr, 2010 by Ajay Goyal.
If a girl child does not get killed in India before birth, she will have to go to school. Or else. Indian government has made it law that children must go to school. It is free, it is compulsory and child’s parents will face punitive
implications if they do not send their child to school. So says the [...]

By Ajay Goyal in Copenhagen
Arriving at Cop15 United Nations Climate Conference at Bella Center in Copenhagen this morning, I was handed a leaflet by a Vegetarian Society volunteer. Half dozen more volunteers were standing with placards and banners asking the world to stop eating meat and go vegetarian. Such activists have been around in the [...]
