Obama Vs Osama



Osama Bin Laden was killed by US army on 2nd May early hours. A dreaded No: 1 terrorist of world was at last killed after almost 10 years of his highest crime of attack on Twin Towers in 9/11/01.
US has avenged on Al-Quaeeda, already it killed Saddam Hussain of Iraq. Has split USSR long back, demolished East Germany. Recently siding with demonstrators of democracy in Middle East nations.
But the current question is Osama was killed in Pak’s army area – so it is clear that Pak supported Osama and co. Also it is clear that Dawood and gang is in Pak only.
While US says it has right to kill anyone in any nation – it will not allow others to avenge the terrorism. It is supporting Pakistan in terrorism against India. That is a pure opportunism.
Pakistan also not playing any double game. It is playing multiple games.
1. Pak is supporting world terrorism
2. Pak is supporting especially all Terrorist outfits against India.
3. Pak is taking huge funds from US in the name of war against Terrorism.
4. The same money is being used to fund terrorists.
5. At the same time it wants to protect itself as Muslim protector.
It is not too much to suffer from all angles.
1. Its leaders will be attacked by Al-qaeeda.
2. Every chance of military coup.
3. US itself can dump it once it is proved that there is a support by Pakistan.

Homage to Sri Sathya Sai Baba



On 24th April at 7:40 Am – Sri Sathya Sai Baba passed away from the physical avatar.
HE is a world renowned Swamy. HE has been struggling with health since 28th March. There were many stories during that time and now about the genuine communication gap both the trust members, hospital authorities have created along with Baba relations.
So many controversies and the inability of Government to intervene.
Keeping them aside – one should praise great Baba’s contribution to the society in the form of LOVE and SERVICE.
HE is not a Hindu Swamy – though wears saffron. HE is Baba for all religions. Hardly HE has done any Hindu religion canvas or contribution. But followed True Hindu principles.
On 23rd Nov 1926 HE was born at Gollapalli (Puttaparthi) and became Baba at the age of 14. HE settled in Puttaparthi only and hardly travelled once out of India.
HE only made devotees to reach to him.
HE contributed to education, Hospitals, Water development especially to AP and also to Karnataka and TN.
I came to know about Sai baba almost since my childhood. I saw Baba closely face to face – many a times in the early 80s. When I was in JNTU Anantapur visited many a times. That time in the place of Sai Kulwanthall – sand land used to be there. Baba used to come to each line and many a times saw with naked eye – HE taking out Vibhudhi and giving too many.
More than devotion – I liked HIS service, Love and the discipline in Ashram
Whenever I visited Puttaparthi – I made a point to live like “A day of Sai Devotee in Puttaparthi” – having darshan both in the morning and evening. Participating in Bhajans, visiting HIS nearby sites/museums – even some time Nagara Sankeerthana.
If devotees believe him as GOD then one should feel that HE reached back t HIS place – of course for the devotees who used to see daily in person – it is a hard thing to believe.
If Puttaparthi also becomes like another Shirdhi, Trust goes into reliable sources – then devotees will have peace in mind.
If Prema Sai is going to come in Mandya in 2022 – it will be another miracle.

1983 Vs 2011



I have watched both World Cup crickets of 1983 and 2011. Few observations, comparisons, similarities · In 1983 for whole India it was a stunned Happiness – in 2011 it was a relieved happiness. · Those days we could see the Live telecast in B&W TV only from SFs – whereas now it is from knockout. · We heard Radio commentary in 1983 and in 2011 it is Live in web coverage – even streaming. · AS everyone says in 1983 no one considered India to reach SF. Even after reaching – no one thought we will beat WI in Finals. Whereas from day one for 2011 – India was one of the hot favorite · Kapil saved the match against Zimbabwe by scoring 175 n.o when the score was 17/5 in 1983 – we did not have such danger stage in 2011. · In 1983 and even in 2011 – it was a team work · Both Captains Kapil and Dhoni are young. · The 1983 Master Gavaskar did not show any impression – whereas 2011 Master Sachin had shown great impact, the 2nd Highest run scorer in the overall tournament. · Mohinder Amarnath made matches to win both in SF and Final, thus he was the man of the tournament; similarly Yuvraj had won the matches for us as allrounder. · The Team of 1983 is with many semi-retired persons whereas 2011’s team is of youngsters and has great future. Also this will inculcate more energy in the bench people. · In 1983 we have decent bowling squad, that is lacking now. But batting is great and superb now compared to 1983. · After 1983 – we won many cups / tournaments – hope so now after 2011 also. · In 1987 we lost in SF, 1991 did not enter into SF, 1996 lost in SF, 1999 – did not qualify for SF, 2003 lost in Finals, 2007 – lost before Super-Six. · Thus the ups and downs lead for 2011 win. · We are equal to WI by winning twice WC – whereas Aus – 4 times. · Cricket became a glamorous game after 1983 and now after 2011 India’s Cricket mania will increase further. · Sachin is short of 2 centuries for 50 100s – while just 1 short for 100 100s. These 2 milestones are very important for India. Sachin then can be declared as “Cricket God” of world. Jai Ho India

Performance Feedback of India’s wining world cup Team



Now that India won the ICC Cricket world cup 2011 – let us analyze how each player has performed and let us give feedback with a probable % range. 1. Veerendra Shehawag – started the tournament in high spirit with 175 against Bangladesh. His ambition of playing entire Innings was fulfilled. But he could not live up to the same expectation in any of the other game. But he played quick scores in couple of matches. Thus he stands a score of 80-85% 2. Sachin Tendulkar – He is the 2nd highest run scorer in this tournament. Though he missed the 100 100s and did not bat well in the finals, he has contributed in many matches and done up to the expectation. He clearly stands at 90-95% 3. Gautham Gambhir – really done well – more than expected. Has saved the final match. Also played well in couple of previous matches. A man who has great future. Stands at 85-90% 4. Virat Kohli – Got many chances. Though did not spoil any match, but at the same time did not prove any point. But his fielding helped a lot. Has a great future. 80-85% 5. YuvaRaj – undoubtedly the man of the tournament and the team. Proved a point against the critics in all most all the matches. 4 MoM awards. Batted, bowled, and fielded. Undoubtedly 95-100% 6. Suresh Raina – got very few chances – but done well in his capacity. A great fielder. Lot of future ahead. 80-85% 7. Dhoni – man of cool, who just lost control only once in the tournament against Yuvi during a mess up in running in the finals between wickets. He did not give much chance to Ashwin. Reasons to be known to him only. Gave too many chances to Piyush. Did not drop Harbhajan. Took Sreesanth in Final match. But all these are forgotten – by promoting himself in the final match against SL in advance to YuvaRaj and steered India for a win by scoring at faster pace and remaining at 91 no. Mr Cool withstood the pressure. He can improve further a lot if he does learn on his own from this tournament. He stands at a good score of 85-90%. This score he could get only because of the final match. 8. HarBhajan – Failed to show up to his reputation. Though he did not give too many runs, but could not get his wickets. At times he lead into a situation – why Harbhajan? Why cannot Ashwin? Thus stands at 75-80% 9. Zaheer Khan – Undoubtedly the best bowler. Got highest wickets of 21 (equal to that of Afridi – but a bit costly). He lived up to the expectation throughout the tournament – except in the last few overs of the final match, which was a surprising. Because of this only – he got reduced rating. He rates at 90-95% 10. Munaf Patel – OK bowler. He supported Zaheer. He has to improve a lot and aim for 2nd spot. Stands at 80-85% 11. Sreesanth – a miserable player of the tournament. He did not do well in both the games. In the final also – though luckily included at the cost of Ashwini – could not control. Thus stands at 65-70% 12. Ashwin – Has good future. He was not given many chances by Dhoni. But he played great in both the matches offered to him. He really stands at 80-85% - perhaps could have been more had he been given few more chances. 13. Piyush Chawla – Not so great performance. Got chances at the cost of Ashwin. Stands at 70-75% 14. Ashish Nehra – Done reasonably well. Injuries costed him. But supported Zaheer wherever possible. He also stands at 80-85% Thus The Ranking is as follows: 1. YuvaRaj Singh – 95-100% 2. Sachin Tendulkar – 90-95% 3. Zaheer Khan – 90-95% 4. Gautham Gambhir – 85-90% 5. Mahendra Singh Dhoni – 85-90% 6. Veerendra Shehwag– 85-90% 7. Suresh Raina – 80-85% 8. Virat Kohli– 80-85% 9. Ashwin R– 80-85% 10. Ashish Nehra– 80-85% 11. Munaf Patel– 80-85% 12. HarBhajan Singh- 75-80% 13. Piyush Chawala-70-75% 14. Sreesanth-65-70% The overall performance of the Team · India’s batting is superb. Needs consistency to build on the initial scores established. · Bowling consistency to be worked seriously. Fast bowlers need to be developed upon · Fielding peaked in the right time and need to work on further. Should thank Gary Kristen who has helped the team to be a “One Team”. Great India Team – maintain the winning habit.

Congratulations India – The world Champions in Cricket.




India
started the tournament as hot favorites and they proved that correct at the end. India is world champions in Cricket by defeating Sri Lanka by 6 wickets at wankhade stadium on 2nd April 2011. Though India was tipped as hot favorite, there are equally doubts over it to be realized. While Australia and SA were equally considered as favorite, SL and Pak were also considered as probables. AS the tournament gradually progressed till the QF stage, India seemed to be out of control. If you observe match by match – India exposed its weakness in all areas. · Against Bangladesh – India showed its batting skills, but failed in Bowling and fielding, thus the victory margin was not that great. It exposed Bowling weakness clearly · Against England though it had good score, match lead to tie. The batting collapse from middle order onwards raised doubts, as usual the bowling weakness. · With Ireland – same story as above. But we could win comfortably. · Against Netherlands – though we showed good bowling skills, in a hurry to gain run-rate - won with few overs left – lost initial wickets. · Against SA biggest drama again – established high score in 40 overs, lost 7 wickets in 10 overs with just 30 odd runs, failed to protect that big total. · Against WI – we won, but same story of batting collapse, but bowling improved. · The defeat against SA looks now a good one as it made Indians to stand on their toes. Then the rest two matches – India played like professionals. · In QF against Australia – we could bowl, field well and restricted the strong batting line-up. Then in batting also maintained calm – could win convincingly with 5 wickets. · In SF against Pak – a much better performance. Though a bit struggle in batting – but managed a reasonable good score – which is good against Pak’s batting strength. Like in any other world cup again defeated Pak with a perfect balance in bowling and fielding. India’s win against in SL had its element of hic-ups in between– but managed well at the end. Though we restricted SL very well in most of the overs, lost the control in last 5 overs by giving 60+ runs, also lost in the first 5 overs of our batting by losing 2 quick wickets. But otherwise the rest of 90 overs the match was in our control. Dhoni – who had not batted till now – made a Captain’s knock and won the cup for us. Tendulkar’s dream, India’s dream come true. This will change India’s dominance in cricket again. More craze, more heroic worship, more love. Sachin missed to reach 100 100s. So two more milestones away to get Bharat Ratna. · One more One day hundred – so that he will reach 100 100s. · 2nd more One day hundred to reach 50 100s in one day.

Sri Krishna commission Report




Yes it is too late to write on Sri Krishna commission.
Sri Krishna commission report submitted on 1st Jan 2011 has just scored pass marks i.e. 35 out of 100.
That pass marks also came because it tilted towards united AP with more privileges to Telangana. It accepted that Rayalaseema is much more back-ward than Telangana.
Thus it exposed all Telangana agitators as it is more of sentimental, emotional, political and blackmailing in approach.
Some of the AS-IS comments of the report
· Still regional imbalances exist. But the inequality between the haves and have nots is decreased in Andhra compared anywhere. In Telangana still exists - this can lead to fights anytime and easily provokable by any groups for any agitations. Tomorrow it can be SC categorization, Naxalite movement, Minority issues
· If Hyderabad is included the growth Is much more faster in all aspects for Telangana even in Agriculture
· Hyderabad has 8% GDP across state which is very high compared to any other district. Thus Hyderabad necessitates its common accessibility for all regions of AP, for that matter to India and world
· Option 1 Maintain Status Quo
o Consider the case as law and order problem. Let State solve it and Center keep quite
o The commission has not found any intentional negligence of Telangana and also the data shows no proof that Telangana is backward and not progressed
o But immediate backlash may take place for some time following
o Hyderabad city's image will be effected
o MLAs and MPs might be forced to resign
o Maoists may rise
o This is not a good solution
· Option 2 Bifurcation of the State into Seemandhra and Telangana; with Hyderabad as a Union Territory and the two states developing their own capitals in due course
o Hyderabad is a pivotal city now. Hence it should be UT
o 1/3rd of population is migrant
o Rayalaseema and Andhra may accept this as 2nd choice. But Telangana will oppose it
o Telangana may obstruct the functioning of UT by blocking from all sides
o This also gives almost same problems like above
o This is also not a good solution
· Option 3 Bifurcation of State into Rayala-Telangana and coastal Andhra regions with Hyderabad being an integral part of Rayala-Telangana
o 2nd preference to Rayalaseema people
o AIMIM's 2nd option also the same while United AP is the first one for them
o Analysis suggests that primarily taking economic and social parameters into account this would be a viable and sustainable option.
o Rayalaseema prefers to be with Telangana rather with Andhra - if separated
o But Telangana strongly opposes this
o Though economically it is good one, but both sides will not accept and gives new issues.
o Also Telangana may continue the agitation still
· Option 4 Bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh into Seemandhra and Telangana with enlarged Hyderabad Metropolis as a separate Union Territory. This Union Territory will have geographical linkage and contiguity via Nalgonda district in the south-east to district Guntur in coastal Andhra and via Mahboobnagar district in the south to Kurnool district in Rayalaseema
o This is derived from option 2
o GHMC area now is 625 SQKM
o HMDA covers now 7073 SQKM
o Proposed UT will have 12,000 SQ KM
o Expanded UT is good for Nation and for Hyderabad itself
o 3 regions will have connectivity unlike the option 2
o All the 3 regions can have Hyderabad as the Capital (Andhra, Telangana and UT)
o It will be a model of mix of Chandigarh and Delhi
o This most probably will be the acceptable one to Rayalaseema - and they may not want any more separate state
o But all 3 regions may feel that they lost their Hyderabad
o Telangana will be fighting dead against this
· Option 5 - Bifurcation of the State into Telangana and Seemandhra as per existing boundaries with Hyderabad as the capital of Telangana and Seemandhra to have a new capital
o This is the most agreeable one to Telangana
o Strong pro-Telangana elements in Warangal, west Khammam, Nizamabad, Karimnagar, southern Adilabad, Siddipet area of Medak, parts of Nalgonda and Mahabubnagar and some areas of Ranga Reddy. The most vociferous and agitating sections are the students(particularly in Osmania and Kakatiya Universities), the unemployed youth, the lawyers and the non-gazetted Government employees;
o The neutral elements include the original population of Hyderabad, including large segments of AIMIM, the villages/mandals bordering Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, coastal Andhra, Rayalaseema and Karnataka; the settler villages/mandals in the Telangana heartland (Khammam, Karimnagar, Nizamabad etc.) and the migrant population in HMDA from Seemandhra and other parts of the country;
o Heavy backlash from Seemandhra -
o Separate state demand for Rayalaseema
o Impact outside of AP - more such demand start pouring
o Is it correct for a region to decide on its own like this?
o Cost of goods/service will increase because of too many costs across state
o Loss of Hyderabad by Seemandhra cannot be imagined
o Even Telangana may suffer due to non-co-operation from Andhra
o The continuing demand, therefore, for aseparate Telangana, the Committee felt, has some merit and is not entirelyunjustified.
o Settlers will have major issues and may be targeted
o Committee did not think it to be the most preferred, but the second best
o Separation is recommended only in case it is unavoidable and if this decision can be reached amicably amongst all the three regions.
· Option 6 - Keeping the State united by simultaneously providing certain definite Constitutional/Statutory measures for socio-economic development and political empowerment of Telangana region – creation of a statutorily empowered Telangana Regional Council
o Telangana council with MLA as chairman
o Separate bodies for important areas such as Irrigation, education and power….
o The council should have a secretariat
o This is the best of all considering 3 regions
o But people from Telangana will oppose and will pressurize the politicians to resign
o Rayalaseema also may demand such council

TURMOIL of AP AHEAD




No one knows how the state AP is going to be headed. That shows how Sonia , Manmohan and Chidambaram are least bothered for a state which fetched 33 MPs , making them to enjoy the power – sitting like Nero king who enjoyed the Roman fire by playing guitar.
There are too many angles to the current crisis in the form of Telangana.
1) Congress as a back-up plan romped in Chiranjeevi, anyhow it has the support of MIM – thus it has a support of additional 23 MLAs and even Jagan takes 25 MLAs – Congress can safe.
Ofcourse Congress will play a drama like that of Yeddy and ensures that the 20+ MLAs of Jagan will be kicked out of membership and will be thrown away from Assembly.
2) Jagan and TRS are making secret understanding to threaten Congress. While Jagan wants to threaten clearly – Cunning KCR and TRS wants to use it as a blackmail – but the innocent Telanganites still believing KCR like that of sheep flock – but it is open secret that he will be ready to sell TRS for crores of money
3) TDP is caught and unaware what to do. NCB – is becoming a helpless person and not able to oppose Telangana and at the same time not able to support. Thus indirectly wants Congress to continue in power, get marginalized Jagan’s and TRS political base.
But in the whole process the whole Telangana gang is doing asadistic damage of the region by way of trying to launch non-cooperation moment by all sections
1) They want to stall schools and colleges. They want to spoil the future of the students. But all leading politicians’ families must be studying out of state or abroad.
2) The employees of state government want to do strike – they all should be dismissed at once and employ the uneducated Telangana youth – that solves the major problem.
3) Lawyers want to boycott the courts – they should be arrested as terrorists.
In the name of freedom of expression and with a wrong message of Egypt they want to repeat it. There the whole nation fought against the dictator. But here this region is creating hatred, enmity and violence against another region. Taking law and order into their hands. Stalling the development and progress.
Let the Central government get some basic common sense into the mind and stop this nuisance once for all and if needed call the Military and order shoot at sight against any agitators. That only solves this mad Telangana issue
