Make the children sleep in a separate room since very early years – that will inculcate in them the confidence to handle situations on their own.

Chappell has already been vindicated when he boasted before the Indian tour of Australia that he can demystify the great Indian batting.

If we look at ourselves, we can call Indian as a sub human civilization at best.
Compare Indian population and the Nobel prize winner.
Compare Indian population and Olympics gold medals.
Indian yearly population growth is equal the total population of Australia.

There are so many facts to prove that Chappell is absolutely right.
The problem is not only with what we are taught by parents but it is one aspect of problem. Indian enlightenment never happened and all we gained was due to Western rule. Hindu revivalism also happened due to British rule otherwise Indians would have continued with Sati and child sacrifice.

It is time for Indians to change their mentality if they want to be the actual super power that they dream about.

Yes congress will be succesful in Manipur and Goa and that will be the glory.
Congress supporters have already started putting excuses for loss in UP. The fact is that UP is make or break for UPA. if in UP congress doesn’t come at even second position, Rahul’s image will be dented beyong repair. This poll is semifinal for loksabha poll in 2014 and not winning in any major state (UK, Punjab and UP) should make UPA realise that their days are over.

Bombay shouldn’t be called Mumbai by people just because of the pressure from Shiv Sena. People are surely going to rebel and call it Bombay on purpose.

But on the other hand, why would you call it Bombay. Why should we still have names given to us by the British ? Isn’t it patriotic to call it by an Indian name ?

If Shiv Sena didn’t exist and some really good and respected politician would have changed the name and not pressurized people to use it, wouldn’t people have said Mumbai rather than saying Bombay.

Ok but it’s the Shiv Sena which has changed it …but why be a rebel, what’s the use other than proving your point that “you can’t tell us what to do”. I see it as a useless exercise to write blogs about why i call it bombay and why you can’t tell me what to call it.

Just be patriotic and accept the name…how difficult is it ?

I refuse to give in and say Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata or Udhagamandalam (or whatever the hell the name is now). In Europe, it is common for cities to have different names in different languages and is similarly true in India as well. But when governments are unable to provide drinking water, electricity, decent roads and other such basic infrastructure, they manage to somehow show the world that they are doing their best by changing names. What bull!
