Promising new talents at day one of LFW

Sunita,
Kudos for speaking up. Digvijay is a thug and it is time media tell him this bluntly.

The main problem that the minorities endure since Independance is that all secular politicians “pander to their sentiments”, without doing anything concrete as a solution to their various other problems. Digvijay’s is a classic example – he was closer to PV Narasimha Rao who in turn was closer to the RSS and Digvijay played a greater role between the RSS and PVNR during the Babri fiasco – and yet Digvijay is further vitiating the atmosphere by constantly speaking out against the RSS, without the Congress doing anything worthwhile for the Muslims of India. Fraud-secularists these, rather than pseudo-secularists.

Again, another article without any maths. The article is too big and a medley of ideas. Break them into logical chunks. and calculate. Go a little deeper, Vir. Aviation fuel is nothing but kerosene – no jokes – molecule by molecule and atom by atom – ask a chemistry professor or a aviation fuel handler to technically differentiate between Avaiation fuel and kerosene. The difference is so miniscule that it is often considered SMART MARKETING by the Gov to mint money from public in the guise of “AVIATION” taxes – coz in their opinion, anybody flying has money and they can pay what can be charged. State Govs are Looters. The biggest cheaters are the poorest states of India. Compare their taxes with those of big cities. Second, if you say its private and private should fight their own battle, then gov should do away with forced flights for private guys on non-profitable sectors. And Vir, I have flown “once” as the only passenger in a flight and umpteen times with just two or three passengers o a plane. These are all on non-profit sectors. If I were Vijay’s boss, I would have asked him to quit – it is business suicide. Vijay has learnt his lesson now – profit comes before socialism – and yes, he is kinda hija**ing and creating and pushing the gov to accede to his terms. He has done socialism. Let Gov give him back some of that socialism. And if you would like to argue, imagine what’s its like flying on a plane all by yourself and red skirted … bring you niceties and …. you don’t own the plane and you paid Rs. 3000 for it. – any true businessman will puke on reading it. But you can continue writing.

A fitting indictment of Shri Manmohan ji, the lame duck PM.

Vijay Mallya has claimed quite proudly that he is not an orphan, so maybe he will manage a bailout after all.

Mr. Singhvi, A well rounded article indeed! The bane of the problem is, that some one (a competitor) will gain on KF’s demise, which may not happen soon as you have rightly pointed out!

Meanwhile, the KF swim suit calendar comes on time, while the employees go without money! Do we hear the likeness in the French Revolution ?! Of Caviar and empty bellies at one side?! Pathetic! And this man is supposed to be Representative in the Upper House (Rajya Sabha) – Jai Ho India! We get what we deserve!

About the Airports, you are right on the Operators having garnered the leases at a pittance! Most have their headquarters in Offshore accounts to evade tax (Mauritius). Infact, Qatar has warned they would stop operating from Male if GMR (of Delhi and Hyderabad fame) would not insist on the price rice at Male. We need to get on these airport laissez faire deals deep down and ask Mr Praful who has made a fool of everyone too!

He lavishes in luxury while his middle class 10k employees don’t get paid for months, what would you call such thick skinned human being or is he.
Even today he is busy with his F1 games in europe while his employees don’t even have money to travel to work. Disgusting fellow

APIn this Oct 15, 1979 file picture, Pakistan’s first Nobel Prize laureate Professor Abdus Salam reacts, after hearing the news that he was joint winner of the 1979 Nobel Prize for Physics, in London.
The late Abdus Salam, Pakistan’s only Nobel laureate is no hero at home, where his name has been stricken from school textbooksThe pioneering work of Abdus Salam, Pakistan’s only Nobel laureate, helped lead to the apparent discovery of the subatomic “God’s particle”, last week. But the late physicist is no hero at home, where his name has been stricken off from school textbooks.Praise within Pakistan for Salam, who also guided the early stages of the country’s nuclear programme, faded decades ago as Muslim fundamentalists gained power.Salam, a child prodigy born in 1926 in what was to become Pakistan after the partition, won more than a dozen international prizes and honours. In 1979, he was co-winner of the Nobel Prize for his work on the Standard Model of particle physics, which theorises how fundamental forces govern the overall dynamics of the universe. He died in 1996.Salam and Steven Weinberg, with whom he shared the Nobel Prize, independently predicted the existence of a subatomic particle now called the Higgs Boson, named after a British physicist who theorized that it endowed other particles with mass, said Pervez Hoodbhoy, a Pakistani physicist who once worked with Salam. It is also known as the “God’s particle” because its existence is vitally important toward understanding the early evolution of the universe.“This would be a great vindication of Salam’s work and the Standard Model as a whole,” said Khurshid Hasanain, chairman of the physics department at Quaid-i-Azam University in Islamabad.In the 1960s and early 1970s, Salam wielded significant influence in Pakistan as the chief scientific adviser to the president, helping to set up the country’s space agency and institute for nuclear science and technology. Salam also assisted in the early stages of Pakistan’s effort to build a nuclear bomb, which it eventually tested in 1998.Salam resigned from his government post in protest following the 1974 constitutional amendment and eventually moved to Europe to pursue his work. In Italy, he created a center for theoretical physics to help physicists from the developing world.Although Pakistan’s then-president, Gen. Zia ul-Haq, presented Salam with Pakistan’s highest civilian honor after he won the Nobel Prize, the general response in the country was muted. The physicist was celebrated more enthusiastically by other nations, including India.Despite his achievements, Salam’s name appears in few textbooks and is rarely mentioned by Pakistani leaders or the media. Officials at Quaid-i-Azam University had to cancel plans for Salam to lecture about his Nobel-winning theory when Islamist student activists threatened to break the physicist’s legs, said his colleague Hoodbhoy.“The way he has been treated is such a tragedy,” said Mr. Hoodbhoy. “He went from someone who was revered in Pakistan, a national celebrity, to someone who could not set foot in Pakistan. If he came, he would be insulted and could be hurt or even killed.”Keywords: God’s particle Higgs Boson, Pakistan Nobel laureate, Abdus Salam, Islamic fundamentalists
