After the Samjhauta acquittal, it will be difficult for Indians to look Pakistanis in the eye and ask them tough questions about terrorism and 26/11 Mumbai attack.
The train's services between India and Pakistan were suspended amid hostilities over a captured IAF pilot and terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed's activities.
Pakistan's Foreign Office said the biweekly train operations between Lahore and Attari will resume after the security situation improves, but gave no specific date.
It’s hard to build a house, run a business, or do anything without paying bribes. And yet, citizens’ anger about this open, unchecked corruption won’t erupt into Anna Hazare-type rallies.
As many as 21 policy reforms are under implementation following Invest Kerala Global Summit, as LDF govt works to change perception that the state is not conducive to businesses.
Amid continued concerns over cross-border terrorism, General Upendra Dwivedi further warned the neighbour that India will not show restraint if there is an Op Sindoor 2.0.
Pakistan’s army has been a rentier force available to a reasonable bidder. It has never come to the aid of any Muslims including Palestinians or the Gazans, except making noises here and there.
The Indian ruling Governments and political leaderships have never punished the guilty right wing Hindutava terrorists involved in innocent killings. At the same time Indian ruling political leaderships have blamed Pakistan government for not taking action against the terrorists. The reality is that the right wing Hindutava terrorists have killed more innocents in India than any other terrorist organizations. Why doesn’t the Indian ruling Governments don’t punish the Hindutava terrorists in their own country before telling other countries how to act against their terrorists ?
You can’t fathom how lucky you’re that 0 comments attacking you for being a “Khalistani” has been allowed to publish.
Saw a video clip of Ms Navika Kumar, her voice filled with pain and anguish, asking if an appeal would be filed, there would be further investigation, how justice could be rendered to the families of the victims. Stuff happens, she was told.
It clearly spells out the first-ever scenario of him admitting it on-record, then recanted it after months by proclaiming it was “obtained under duress (read torture)” and cut to 4 years later, sensing the drastic change in political-climate getting proved with NDA’s victory under the incumbent PM; he rescinded his recantation and essentially said he lied about the “torture” and thus, he stands by his original-confession. Whilst this remains unchanged since then as of now (i.e. it’s his latest firm position), other witnesses in the case steadily starting turning “hostile” out-of-nowhere. And the case “miraculously” became weaker and weaker over time.
Hi,
Can we not ask Pakistan to share evidence as they always do in Mumbai attack cases for conviction of Hafiz Sayeed which has been provided in great detail?
if they have been released out of a due legal process and painstaking effort by UPA govt to convict them why should it be a problem. There is no proof that current gov has tried to interfere with due legal process but one probably knows where it may stand ideologically on this issue.
Also unlike Pakistan where they have the backing of deep state ,in this case there is no proven involvement of any state actor so would the comparison be fair and justified?
You’re asking them to “fetch evidence” for a crime-of-mass-destruction carried with the genocidal motive, on an undisputed foreign territory — by non-citizen actors with no history to share with the “Islamic Republic of Pakistan” and any intent to involve her in the acts of mass-destruction as well? And that too, when it’s not Pakistan whose investigation had found the involvement of those perpetrators?
As in, despite of nothing rationally linkable to the Pakistani state officials (I do hope and even pray that you’re not asking for the state to act on behalf of the words of her citizens) in a straight line — they somehow do need to “fetch evidence”? Whatabout the so called “territorial-integrity”? Are the perps involved belong to such a “special class” that the “sovereignty” going perfectly out-the-window with zero brouhaha is something even near desirable? Boy.. Then must’ve something direct to do with one of the national symbols of the “Republic of India”.
How more of logically-fallacious can you be? And who save for INC sympathisers proclaimed that the previous Cabinet made the sound-judgement and did all it could to get the perpetrators convicted? By your line-of-reasoning: Late Indira Gandhi proxy-founded VHP! Now go prove me wrong.
The toll on the Samjhauta Express was higher than at Godhra, which set off one of the darkest chapters of modern Indian history.
Nope! Not gonna happen.
Too Utopian!
Masses are simpletons. (And hence, elaborating to any degree whatsoever is not gonna make a dent.) Period.

That Times Now® talking-head?
You must be in a mood for sarcasm, aren’t ya?
I think at one point Aseemanand himself had confessed to his role in Samkhauta express case.
‘Dear’, did you even bother to read the article?

Worse part is, unlike Godhra — Samjhauta is proven to be caused by anthropogenic factors beyond every single rational-doubt.
