This event is full of sentimental touches, only with that sentiment that a human being lives for. The relationship between a brother and sister is perhaps the only relation next to parents that expects nothing materialistic from the relationship.

We'd love to invite you on to our radio programme the next time you're in London. Sorry if we have just missed you - we have been trying to get in contact with you for a while now! As we plan our programmes largely in advance, it would be great to meet up with you if were here in Autumn of this year. Otherwise, if you plan on attending the Galle Literary Festival in Sri Lanka next year, please do let us know. Our programme reaches a global audience and in the past we have interviewed authors such as Gunter Grass, Vikram Seth and Val McDermid. Hope to hear from you soon.<br />Best wishes,<br />Karen Holden<br />BBC World Book Club Producer<br />World.Bookclub@bbc.co.ukKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18266720271385618057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-85832989874732145832011-06-10T04:15:15.834+05:302011-06-10T04:15:15.834+05:30So you are fed up of the Baba Ramdev tamasha? Why ...So you are fed up of the Baba Ramdev tamasha? Why is that so may one ask? Are you in any way scared of his anti-corruption campaign? Hundreds of mostly poor un-armed innocent women, children and men have been brutally beaten up by a thuggish police force sent in to create mayhem, by an equally thuggish Congress party and all you can come up with is that you are fed up. It is preciesly this contempt that India's conceited and arrogant elite trash has for the people of Bharat that so infuriates these people into supporting Baba Ramdev. Despised abroad by their white masters for their conceit and uncaring attitude towards Barat's multitudes of poor and increasingly hated at home for their brazen thivery, India's elite should consider themselves lucky that they live amongst the world's most tolerant and forgiving people, that is the people of Bharat.parihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05131960126658462035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-91232400434229087252011-06-09T17:19:06.144+05:302011-06-09T17:19:06.144+05:30Waiting for ur post on Hussain SaabWaiting for ur post on Hussain Saableopiyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998611822036696937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-69443923028252904852011-06-09T16:56:24.398+05:302011-06-09T16:56:24.398+05:30Hi Shobhaa,

And then the riots happened. Something on these lines might have been planned.<br />The same BJP which is crying now just brushed aside the killing of thousands of muslims and still now Modi is sitting pretty with BJP's blessings. Double standards? Or muslim lives and sikh lives are not important in our country? Staines young kids were burnt. Its ok because they belong to christians.

Yahan bahut kuch ho raha h...Yahan kya ho raha hai ?<br />Yahan bahut kuch ho raha hai. Breaking news every minute. Nobody shuts down the TV.<br />Till now the congress was looting us left, right & centre & stashing the money in Swiss & German banks. Now that they are exposed in 2G, CWG, Adarsh.....& are caught pants down, they've resorted to gundagardi. 5000 police including RAF is reported to have swooped down in Ramlila grounds Saturday midnight using lathis & teargas on men, women & children. 23 were hospitalised. A 51 yr old woman Rajbala Malik is critically injured & may be paralysed for life. This was done to people who were sleeping after 1 AM. All the friends & allies of congress, every channel, everybody who is somebody have heavily critised the govt for its high handedness. Supreme court has asked for an explanation. But not even a "sorry" has come from them. Kapil Sibal said 'this will be a lesson to others' !<br />This party often boasts that they have won the independance as if these people went to the warfield, fought with the British & won the freedom. Bhagat singh, Sardar Vallabhai Patel, Gandhiji won the freedom for us, not for these bunch of jokers alone.<br />Now we don't have the independance to sleep in Ramlila grounds, sit in Jantar Mantar, go to UP or Delhi or anywhere without their "permission". <br />Now that they are cornered, completely isolated, desperate & frustrated, they have resorted to calling names. Ramdev is called a "thug", Anna Hazaare is called a mukhota of RSS. Manish Tiwari had the audacity to call him a fascist !!! A fascist calling the father of the nation a fascist ?<br />Since Sushma Swaraj danced for "Ye desh hai veer jawanon ka", they call the BJP "nachaniya party." Manish Tiwari says you can assess the "charitr" of these people by this dance. Those who dance for patriotic songs are chartraheen ! <br />Now we don't have the freedom to dance without being called "charitraheen".<br />Now I have a good mind to call them names after mustering some courage like Kareena Kapoor in 'Jab we met'.<br />hmmm. "fascist. Dictators. thugs. arrogant people. What do you think ? Just because we voted for you, the nation has become your 'baap ka jayadaat' ? We cannot go anywhere without your 'permission' ? We should not dance ?" Chalo chodo. I'm not as good as they are. <br />I wish the people taught them a good lesson to humble their arrogance.Lathahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10391580973252067189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-75142165986449271532011-06-08T00:11:07.160+05:302011-06-08T00:11:07.160+05:30And what's your verdict on Ready?And what's your verdict on Ready?avidbloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09448741256901815665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-46445585561156230692011-06-07T20:52:08.364+05:302011-06-07T20:52:08.364+05:30I fail to understand why is it so hard for a commo...I fail to understand why is it so hard for a common man to live a simple life in India...

Uncontrolled media blitzkrieg has to be brought under the fold of a regulator, that knows how to respect the freedom of press, creativity, and at the same time evaluates the deleterious impact of its extremities on the overall health of the nation, being subjected to free programming of the ugly kind. Its time for a re-look of media regulation and broadcast policy.<br />The Anna episode and Baba episode is an only an indicator that as India prospers, there will be members emerging from the society wanting to bring about positive change, using raw aggression or clumsy non-aggressive strategies, their motive genuine or otherwise. While thats healthy even in a half baked democracy like ours, it will also lead to rogues trying to make their way into this. Many will fall by the wayside, as not every one can rule, and that the numbers that can be accommodated at the top is limited. Baba did his fast, Anna did his, and that democracy allows them; the govt ejected out Baba's non-violent mass gathering in the name of maintaining order and decorum in the capital city, which again, democracy allows.Arjunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08600620536502461953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452007250221117551.post-37284015819961495782011-06-07T14:04:39.650+05:302011-06-07T14:04:39.650+05:30Now Anna is starting his drama at Jantar Mantar.
