  2. hey
    great pic :)
    Well, I agree. It's shameful for our country looking to be a super power and it's one billion population. The CWG has once again displayed the slack attitude that haunts the Indian Psyche.
    I hope our media concentrates more on the games right now.
    There is all time in the world for politics.

  4. @Sir: Yes it is tainting our image all over. Nations are making comparisons between India and China. Already, when we are not known for our quality, getting defamed for large scale corruption is the last thing we wanted to get branded globally.

    But about the Black Swan, India is forgetful, but the world isnt. We ll pay the price somewhere else. We will have to.

    @Nitin :totally agree. Mayawati seems to be small in front of all this.

    @Pathik: Yup, slack attitude, too many cooks, no accountability. Why the hell are we paying taxes? Only to see the rising financial disparity between the needy and the spendthrifts.
