Prasenjit, I did not write that a nation is above a state because the army protects the citizens and their interests. I wrote about protection of the country from foreign invaders by the army. I do not understand your statement of opposing your country’s independence from Britain because that was no...

In an ideal world, there would be no borders, no police or army to protect the citizenry, no laws to keep order among the people, no one would go hungry or be poor because people will share their food and wealth, and the list of benevolent acts would go on and on. There was a time when people did no...

The coments by Prasenjit and Sanjay have been taken from the cricket thread. Our religion should be 'Indian', our region should be 'Indian', our caste should be 'Indian' and our language should be 'Indian'. And we should all wear the same clothes, eat the same food, write with the same hand, and scr...

I agree with many of the statements made by Prasenjit about solving terrorism perpetuated by many Muslims around the world; however, I believe that the scenario has changed in many ways in recent years that those proposed solutions may no longer be effective. Poverty and Lack of Education: First, po...

Terrorism is awful and is against humanity, no matter who commits the reprehensible act. The recent terrorist acts in Mumbai once again bring to surface the venomous philosophy of a certain group(s) of people, the ineptness of the Indian government to deal with terrorism, and the fragility of human ...

Mumbai under terror attack 80 people dead some foreigners dead upcoming Eng Vs India test at Mumbai is unlikely to happen?! It is very sad to see people killing innocent people. I hope that our forum members from Mumbai are safe. This post could be moved to another appropriate thread if the discuss...

*Personal testimony: i have a torn ACL (chronic, needs surgery and long recuperation) and a torn medial meniscus (cartilage, removed using arthroscopy). The latter is suspect in almost anyone who is over 50 (although i am not there, yet!) and remains active. This can be repaired as well, but opinio...

I did not follow the India-Australia series closely, but I would have given the MOS award to Dhoni for the reasons written by Atithee.

Happy birthday Harsh.

The US Challenger circuit is a tough grind for players and it is not uncommon for the winner of a tournament to lose in the first round in the following week. In fact, I was surprised at the win-loss record of Somdev after he had played at that level for the first six weeks or so after turning pro t...

It is not easy to keep beating a good player every time the two meet in tournaments, and Kendrik got the better of Somdev this time in the final. With his confidence back, Somdev should be deadly on the court at Challenger level once again.

I enjoy reading the comments written by our players and I offer my thanks to Sanaa for posting her comments at Sports-India. I wish she had won the singles title in Muzaffarnagar and also had earned a wild card in Pune. I have stopped getting surprised when a small Indian town such as Muzaffarnagar ...

Best wishes to Harsh and Ashutosh in the final.

Go Buji and good luck in the final.

Hi Dhruv,

I like the new version better than the previous one. Can you remove the poll from the front page?

Thanks for all your hard work.
