Indian Courts Doing Well??

Indian Police?? CBI?

We are forgetting that courts act on affadavits filde by lawyers. Big people have always managed to escape from the clutches of law.

Sanjay DUtt- A godd Man??? Victim of stupidity.

Thats something illogical and absurd.

He was stupid when he took drugs and then again when he accepted to take AK47. If he was concerned about his security ( which is an absurd makeup hypothesis) he would have told his father about it. His father probably a rich man would hav had enoug money and power to get him suitable defense. Why the hell on earth he needs to take things from Underworld. Its totally fishy. He took weapons from people who engulfed and perptuated terror in this country. He is a criminal and has been saved by the all powerful political clout. An example of Indin investigation impotence.

Yeh sab paise ka khel hai bhai, paisa pheko aur tamasha dekho!! Seriously, It is doubtful he will ever spend any time behind bars, even if he does it will be a luxury version of jail with 5 star amenities. Laws and regulations simply apply to common folk who have no money and influenze. Not long ago a top ranked military official’s son drove over some poor homeless people killing many. He spent a few years in jail, got acquitted because the prosecution witnesses turned hostile ( probably threatened or sold out for a few thousand rupees). No matter where you live, it always “pays” to have a lot of money and influential friends and family.

I see lot more sympathy for these nutcase indian celebrities. I sense lots of bias comparing recent UCLA taze incident post. I would say SD needs atleast 10 shots of that Tazer if not 10 years inside. I don’t know which one is better there in India.

I am surprised that no one has discussed thhe uncomfortable questions are being raised about Baba’s (That’s Sanjay to his near and dear ones) conviction under the less severe Arms Act, while the people who carried the weapons to him and kept them for safeguarding were branded ‘terrorists’ and convicted under TADA

Speaking of religious displays after run-ins with the legal system, Salman Khan, in an only-in-India-Manmohan-Desai-esq-fashion actually claimed that when he was in prison, he read the Koran and the Mahabharata (not the Gita, the “Mahabharata”) DAILY.

Fast reader!

The Bhagavad Gita is not only an integral part of the Mahabharata, but also its most important part.

It is absolutely, however in reading some of the popular translations (I haven't in a long time) I found the actual translation of the Bhagavad Gita, the discourse by Krishna to Arjun, hard to concentrate on versus the story within it, the Mahabharat when read separately. More of a soap opera. I find the acts within the story more engaging than the literal translation of the philosophies.

Kush Tandon,

The Priya Dutt blog you posted is such a load of crock. Not a single message, which is not ooohing and aaahhhing over her courage or her honesty. Me thinks, she and her cohorts must be busy typing away...

"Folks living in North America, don't be so shocked. Oh Darling, Yeh hai India."

pssshhh... i am an american living in india and i have yet to be truly shocked at the society-level crime and mafia whatever, it is the same worldwide, absolutely the same. in this realm india is not unique at all.... in fact, i wonder why people keep trying to pull this "yeh hai india" when it is becoming absolutely apparent that this behavior goes on everywhere.

one thing about india i will say is that people here don't hide it. it's in the open, people openly discuss corruption, people know exactly who is in who's pockets and who sides with whomever... so instead of the west's hype about the lack of corruption in the face of so much, i find india refreshing.

and y'know, i know quite a few rich boys (cricketers, actors, fashion types...) who get into trouble from time to time and all you ever hear is "he was such a seeda boy, so good" -- and i think a lot of it goes back to respect for the mother. no one is going to completely defame a boy on the face of his mother, their moms come from the high-up society and in respect to her i think that people refrain from badmouthing.

but of course sometimes it borders on the absurd, really, i was at an event a few weeks ago and someone was literally telling me, "you should really meet manu sharma, he's not what you think, such a decent well mannered-boy" --- that's the manu sharma who most probably killed jessica lall in cold blood because she refused him a drink... and people are still off in that world that these are well-mannered decent boys from good backgrounds...

and don't get me started about uttar pradesh, i have worked there on and off for more than 2 years and it's becoming an absolute cesspool -- bihar is a beacon of good health and development in comparison. abu salem will absolutely contest, and he will probably win, and it won't be shocking because since mulayam singh came to power we have MLA's dying (total is somewhere around 10-15 so far?) and another quarter of the MLA's sitting in jail or waiting on their cases... UP is becoming an extreme outlier of india under the great leadership of mulayam singh and amar singh.
