Religious Conversion
The issue of forced religious conversions is back. This time it is from Gujarat. Forcible conversions are already banned in Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and Tamilnadu. I doubt the effectiveness of such law in preventing the conversions.
I personally believe that all religious conversion should be banned. If pundits of all the [...]
Dont give Saddam martyrdom
Unverified reports have been suggesting that Saddam might have been a casualty of the heavy bombardment of Baghdad. Even if US troops kill Saddam, I believe they should never let the word out. The moment the US kills Saddam and makes a big news item of it, he will ensure his place in [...]

New design New beginning
Whenever I change the look of my site, I feel like writing. But then it becomes hardwork to keep up the writing, so I again look to change the look of my site. This time, the design has been entirely by my better-half, and the Movable Type installation and adaptation was done [...]
