Did a CIA mole compromise India’s 1971 war plans?
Every time I have a conversation with friends and colleagues about India-Pakistan, most of them complain about what they think as India’s failure to teach Pakistan a lasting lesson during the 1971 war.

I am from press, so what?
Since the time I joined the profession of journalism, life has shown a lot to me. From the blood soaked bodies of terrorists at Ansal Plaza, to charred bodies of people who died due to fire at Meerut. But, we as journalists were always welcomed as messengers of information.

Business Wrap
The Mumbai terror attack took the attention away from the global financial crisis that has been crippling India from quite some time. But the fact remains that at this point in time the financial crisis is only getting worse by each passing day.

The Politics of Power

There’s this one Hindi proverb my grandmother uses very often, “Jiski jis pe chal jaye.” I hate the use of the vernacular in English writing; I detest it actually, a reason why I’ve been put off by many authors over the years. But this proverb finds no justice in any sort of translation, the meaning gets lost, the impact isn’t the same, yada yada yada.

Will tough laws help fight terrorism?
There has always been a demand by BJP that India needs strong terror laws to fight terrorism. The concern is genuine. In a country like India where the legal system is so rotten that it is difficult to secure the conviction of ordinary criminals, one can not possibly think of conviction of terrorists who come with the sole aim to kill the innocent.

'The show must go on...'
After almost three days of ‘Guns & Grenades’, life seems to come back to square one for everyone, apart from all the self motivated hypocrite politicians of this country. It was heartening to see the iconic Taj in a gust of smoke. The after effects of this terror attack are probably still pinching Mumbai which witnessed loads of dead bodies and destruction.

The much abused spirit of Mumbai
The much abused, much touted spirit of Mumbai is back in the news.

The city of dreams once again fell prey to antics of terror, which this time appeared to be carried out with a sheer impunity and daredevilry, unlike anything witnessed before.

Media witch-hunt for the Obama moment!
Something’s just not right with the Indian media.

On the one hand, we cringe with disgust at Raj Thackeray’s identity politics as tearing the Republic apart, abhor the fact of vote-bank politics and communal tensions and more-than-politely, yet tactfully, disagree with reservations – particularly in the private sector.
