DOWN WITH PAKISTAN, DOWN WITH THE INDIAN CONGRESS

DOWN WITH PAKISTAN, DOWN WITH THE INDIAN

GOVERNMENT

10 men and 62 hrs of mayhem in Mumbai, left 180 odd dead and many many more injured. Some of them could be incapacitated for life due to the gravity of their injuries. And what does the Indian government say? “We condemn the attack”. F#$% YOU!!! Goddamn you Dr Man Mohan Singh and goddamn the rest of the politicians who are running this good-for-nothing government.

For the last five years the only agenda of this government has been minority appeasement. Sorry, let me rephrase that. The only agenda for the last five years has been Muslim appeasement. And what was the result? A blood-bath in Mumbai the kind of which the world has never seen before. Elite hotels and restaurants were targeted and people were shot like rabid dogs in the street. In response the home minister and the Maharashtra CM resigned. BIG F#$!@*% DEAL!!! Of course they would so that they can shun off the responsibility of this massive failure.

Wake up people. Drag these ministers out of their homes and lynch them in full view of everybody. They do not deserve to live. They are the reason that 200 odd people lost their lives in the Mumbai massacres and left thousands affected gravely. Pakistan was, is and will be the breeding ground of Muslim fundamentalism and it needs to be dealt with right now. Muslim extremist groups like LeT and Al Qaida, and notorious gangsters like Dawood Ibrahim, find safe haven in this brutal, inhuman country that still practices the most barbaric of laws in its villages. By the day Pakistan’s audacity has increased buoyed by the support that it got from the US government in terms of financial assistance. It continued in its ways and committed large scale atrocities against mankind at large. And yet nobody does anything about it.

9/11, 7/11 and now the Mumbai massacre ought to pin these pigs once and for all. Let the whole world target them. Stop immigration from Pakistan to any developed country. Do not allow people from Pakistan to travel to other countries. Stop giving them aid. They are a disease in today’s world and it is the duty of each and every man to eradicate it from the surface of the earth. The world will be a better place without these practitioners of violence in the name of jihad.

These steps would probably hurt scores of innocent people, but so be it. When the terrorists attack they hurt scores of innocent people too. So why should be sympathize with the expat Pakistanis? It’s their misfortune that they were born in the most hated country in the world and its their responsibility to force the country to mend its ways. If they cannot do so they should be ready to face the consequences. Militancy is the cancer of the Muslim community and they need to get rid of this cancer before it destroys their very existence.

India to recognize live-in relationships

October 10, 2008 · 2 Comments

The Maharashtra government is all set to approve a proposal where live-in relationships stand to be recognized. The proposal is to bestow the status of a ‘wife’ on a woman who is involved in such a relationship. A really progressive move by the government of Maharashtra that is cognizant of the fact that Mumbai has the highest number of live-in relationships. Bangalore follows close on Mumbai’s heels.

There is an existing concept of a common law marriage wherein couples who share a live-in relationship are recognized as married couples and enjoy the same rights as traditionally married couples. The only difference is that common law marriages are never solemnised.

This move by the Maharashtra government is sure to raise a few eyebrows and ruffle a lot of feathers. But I strongly feel this would help in the long term. The Indian society ever since liberalisation has lapped up all that western culture had to offer. It was only a matter of time before this aspect of western culture creeped in. The past few years have seen a rise in the number of couples opting for live-in relationships. To most it was a matter of convenience – sort of a no strings attached arrangement. Some of those have eventually solemnised their relationship in marriage but there are still many who prefer the current arrangement.

Governtment ratification of live-in relationships would help in making it more socially accepted. This phenomenon is going to play a very important role in the societal make up of the future India. Till now there is a lot of stigma associated with it, but it seems things are about to change. Of course its not going to be an overnight process but surely with a legal approval behind it proponents of live-in relationships can look forward to a more open and accepting Indian society.
