Mithar ji Please Don't compare Sikh Jatha's with marriage of Sania Mirza.Many of our Gurdwara's In Pakistan are most sacred for us and an important part of Sikh history is associated with them. As Far as Sania is concerned She can do whatever she like's but impact of her decision will be borne by entire muslim community of India as She is not an ordinary Girl but most famous sportswoman of India. Millions of Indians cheered and showered love on her irrespective of her Religion and Now she is saying to them sorry I am no longer going to be an Indian.Next Time a muslim Girl will climb ladder in success in sports then she will hardly find fans or sponsers as they all think that she could end up marrying a pakistani

I don't know slumdog was anti hindu or not but one could hardly say that it shows reality of India.Look at jamaal the hero of movie He escaped from bombay with his brother and started living in Agra as Guide until his teen and then just to find his 6-7 year old love he came back.It is some sort of funny thing rather than reality that a slumkid Goes back to a city find his childhood love.Bollywood do show this type of extreme love but I think here they gone overboard

Well in India I don't think there is any other way to retain martial spirit apart from serving the army. It is nearly impossible for a common man to have Pistol license forget about getting gun license. Hunting which was another way to retain it is now completely banned If you go to another White collar profession then most of the time you end up just gossiping. Afghanistan,tribal area's are totally different. There were photographs all over net of pak cricketer afridi With AK-47 So they can keep any type of arm they want to.

Quite an interesting comment.One of the other reason for joining army or police is many communities wanted to retain their martial spirit O/W their is no way that a comminity in today's world can retain its martial spirit The recent article posted by me about shortage of officers in Indian army pointed towards the fact that traditional areas of Rajasthan and Punjab have dried up for them.It is a clear indication that Rajputs and Sikhs two martial communities of India are no longer much interested in That job

Shaheediyaan ji Please re read my post.I already said sikhs are victims everywhere.Unlike muslime our forefathers did not have chance to choose to live in their own country. Pakistani sikhs are also victims unlike Pakistani which are involved in terroist activities all over the world

Cul What's wrong I said, Indian muslims can keep their roti beti kaa rishta with pakistani's Yet they can claim That we should be treated equally with par with Other Indians .I several times watch shows in Which Indian maulavais as well Muslim leaders come and say that their religion and India are like two eye's for them. As far her previous engagement was concerned She was engaged with her own will.Even at that time she was criticised for leaving tennis. BTW one should not forget that she was/is the most commercially successful sportswoman of India and promoted as national icon.What will the impact on the people when a national icon marries a man from enemy country.

From a religious point of view nothing wrong From National point of view very bad.Indian Muslims are trying very hard to convince Hindu's that we are indians first.Yet India's most successful sportwoman icon who is muslim chooses a pakistani husband despite knowing that relations between 2 countries is very bad after 26/11.It is direct message that for us Indian muslims Islam is first and everything else is second,we don't consider Pakistan as enemy. As far as sikhs are concerned we are very small minority and we don't have coountries with 90+% population of sikhs.Everywhere we are more of a victim rather than oppressor so our condition is different from muslims

To be honest I now think that it is part of nature of women to be blinded by love and do not care about anything.Career,religion,country etc. Shewas happily engaged with her childhood friend sohrab mirza When He met Shoab Malik .Yet she chooses to betray him and Her Nation For a sake of Pakistani. 2-3 Years Back Her Earning through endorsements was equal to cricketer Yuvraj Singh Which is very High.She was commercially most successful sportswoman in India With lots of Advertisements saying that Give this to your Daughter and Your daughter will be Next Sania.Now Next Time a muslim sporstwoman succeed then sponsers will think twice whether to take her as brand ambassador

http://sports.rediff.com/report/2010/mar/29/sania-mirza-engaged-to-shoaib-malik.htm Indian tennis star Sania Mirza [ Images ] is all set to marry Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik [ Images ] in April, two months after she broke her engagement with childhood friend Sohrab Mirza. Confirming the news, Malik wrote in his Twitter page, "Thanks for all your support. And the news of me marrying to Sania is true. Inshallah will get married in April." "I fully understand what it takes to be an international sports person and I will support Sania in her career as long as she wishes to play," he said. "Representing India [ Images ] at the 2012 Olympics [ Images ] is very important for her and I will be the proudest husband if she can win a medal for her country," he added. A statement by Sania's father Imran Mirza also stated that 23-year-old Sania and the 28-year-old all-rounder will be based in Dubai [ Images ], where Malik is a resident. "This is a unique case where the husband and wife will represent their respective countries in sport," said Mirza in Hyderabad. "My wedding inshallah is going to be the biggest day of my life. I have been in the constant glare for too long and would appreciate privacy at this very personal moment in my life," Sania was quoted as having said in a statement. "I hope to be fully fit to represent India in the Commonwealth and Asian Games that are scheduled for later this year," she said. Sania's mother, Nasima said, "Marriages are made in heaven." Incidentally, Shoaib was earlier accused of marrying another Hyderabad girl, Ayesha Siddiqui, in 2002 over phone even though the cricketer said he was merely engaged to her. Ayesha's father had also threatened to sue Malik accusing him of ditching the girl. Malik's brother-in-law Imran Z Malik said the marriage proposal was taken by the cricketer's mother to India. He said the entire family will leave for India on April 7 and formal nikaah ceremony would take place on April 10 or 11. The Walima or reception is expected to be held in Lahore [ Images ] on April 16 or 17. Pakistani media reports said Sania and Malik fell in love six-and-half months back and it could be the reason for the breaking up of Sania's engagement with Sohrab. Sania, who had got engaged to 24-year-old Sohrab in July last year, broke off citing incompatibilty. "We were friends for years but found ourselves incompatible as fiances," Sania had said while wishing Sohrab the very best in life.

LOL Slumdog was one of the biggest garbage I have ever seen.It was a purely a masala bollywood movie packed and sold by hollywood.I can say Indian garbage packed in British packet

Don't worry If bollywood don't do that then hollywood can make a film aboout it and make millions of $

http://business.rediff.com/slide-show/2010/mar/26/slide-show-1-300-mn-indians-go-without-food-every-day.htm One piece of bread a day / Was all I had, Sometimes I would break it in half, Sometimes, I could make it toast, My children's bellies full / My stomach churning, I drank water / To calm the burning, I had more than most / Reminding myself of those, Who have a handful of rice / Once a week, They know fear / They know pain, They know hunger / Far better than I ever could. Alisha Rose's poem, Hunger, brings out the essence of a grave problem that plagues not only India, but the entire world. According to the Global Hunger Index, India ranks 65th out of 88 countries, with a hunger rate of 23.9. India, which was largely unaffected by the recent global economic slowdown, however, appears to have made little progress in tackling hunger and malnutrition. The situation remains 'alarming' in the country on this front. Countries like Uganda (38th); Mauritania (40th); Zimbabwe (58th) and many others have a better record than India on this front. Even war-torn nations have managed to combat the scourge of hunger quite well, while India -- even though it boasts of being the second fastest growing economy in the world -- languishes far behind and millions in the country go hungry. undernourished The report -- released on Wednesday by the International Food Policy Research Institute, German aid group Welthungerhilfe and Irish aid group Concern Worldwide -- said that the number of malnourished people was rising as a result of recent events. "The current situation of food crisis, financial crunch and global recession has further undermined the food security and the livelihoods of the poor," it said. The index ranks countries on under-nourishment, prevalence of child malnutrition and rates of child mortality. It said 21 per cent of the Indian population was undernourished (between 2003 and 2005), 43.5 per cent Indian children under the age of five were underweight (between 2002 and 2007) and the under five-years age infant mortality rate in 2007 was 7.2 per cent. 46% of Indian children below the age of 5 are underweight In September 2009, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh projected a food stock of 50 million tonne. Yet, close to 300 million Indians go without food every day! India continues to burnish its international image with initiatives like Brand India, a public-private campaign whose stated mission is to 'build positive perceptions of India globally'. But when the prime minister acknowledged the country's undernourished children as a 'national shame', the statement highlighted how India's economic success co-exists with its persistently high rates for hunger, malnutrition, and income poverty. According to the World Bank, 46 per cent of Indian children below the age of five are underweight, and the World Food Program says that close to 30 per cent of the world's hungry live in India. According to a recent report in The Hindu, biodiverse ecosystems contain naturally evolved genetic strengths and unique food technologies developed by traditional communities in different climates, soils and temperatures. Harnessing and sharing these capabilities equitably will help humanity adapt to rising temperatures and the poorest of the poor feed themselves in harsh climates. To that end, the Chennai Declaration set out a series of strategies that are the product of three days of intense discussion, at the M.S Swaminathan Research Foundation, of the senior representatives from organisations across the world such as the UN Environment Programme, UN Food and Agricultural Organisation, International Rice Research Institute, International Fund for Agricultural Development, World Food Prize Fund, and India's National Biodiversity Authority and Ministry of Environment and Forests. "The declaration makes a bridge of issues at global, national and local levels between the challenges for conservation and food security," said Angela Cropper, deputy executive director, UN Environment Programme. These include: according economic value to the services nature and agriculture rendered and setting up mechanisms for payment for such services; acknowledging that the custodians of biodiverse resources are farmers and fisherfolk; finding markets for neglected but nutritious crops; including rural communities in biodiversity strategies; refocussing research and development priorities and promoting biodiversity literacy through public education to build an ethic of conservation. Jairam Ramesh, Union Minister of State for Environment and Forests, present at the valedictory session, pledged to take forward the 'wonderful ideas' contained in the declaration. He said he would do his best to integrate climate change mitigation strategies with biodiversity conservation in both national policy and in international discussion in Mexico later this year. 2010 is the International Year of Biodiversity. Despite its economic successes, India leads the world in hunger. According to the 2008 Global Hunger Index, which is calculated by the International Food Policy Research Institute, India has close to 350 million people who are food insecure -- in other words, who are not sure where their next meal will come from. To put that into context, that is the same as the entire populations of Germany, France and the United Kingdom all going hungry. The UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation believes that over 1 billion people will go hungry in 2009. Almost 100 million (10 per cent) of those have been made newly hungry by the Financial Crisis. By that grim calculus, India's hungry have grown to at least 300 million, with India providing 30 per cent of the world count. India is the second most populated country in the world. With a population of 1.173 billion, the hungry make up over 25 per cent or one in four in the country. The percentage is probably better than it was fifty years ago, but the absolute number is growing. Compare this to China, which has a larger population (1.334 billion) and which 50 years ago was arguably poorer. It has managed to bring over 500 people out of poverty, its hungry count is today less than 100 million, and that number is shrinking every year. EconomyWatch.com, Dwayne Ramakrishnan wrote, 'Endemic problems such as corruption, poor infrastructure and a lack of access to funds continue to be a problem in India.' The Congress government has been put a strong focus on this area, for example allocating funds to go directly to villages rather than through often corrupt local officials. It was one of the reasons that Congress won the elections with such a show of force - but more clearly needs to be done. 2009 has been a particularly disasterous year for Indian farmers. First there was there was the monsoon failure, he said. It is estimated that this knocked out 40-50 per cent of the Kharif monsoon harvest. Then at the end of the monsoon season, which is normally dry, there were torrential downpours. Although this solved the water crisis, it made the food crisis worse, as much of the crops that made it through the drought were destroyed. Ramakrishnan, the FAO believes that the supply of available arable land is running out. At the same time, farmers are either getting diminishing returns from their current land, or they are having to put ever more inputs to get the same yield. Much of the progress in feed the world since the 1970's has been thanks to the Green Revolution, pioneered by Norman Borlaug, who helped the Mexicans to vastly increase their crop yields. He then took this technology worldwide, with fantastic results in India and many other nations. Sadly, Mr Borlaug passed on the 12 September 2009. The Green Revolution relied on high-yielding crop varieties, together with fertilisers and other methods to more than double crop yields. Since that great productivity burst, however, technology has stagnated. There is a great deal that newer technology can offer. New crop varieties are being developed that require considerably less water and nitrogen. Lasers can be used to flatten fields, and sprinklers can greatly reduce water wastage. Governments in India and elsewhere need to focus on a second Green Revolution to create another quantum leap in productivity. We need to get back on the path of hunger reduction that we were -- until recently -- so successfully treading. Otherwise the food riots of last year and doubling of potato and lentil prices this year will seem like - pardon the pun - chicken feed.

Also let me tell you When my brother got admission in TOP level institution of Master of computer application then many of his friends in Haryana were willing to pay a big amount for a seat that college but there was no way get into that instituion apart from getting through entrance test.Even I personally asked are there any paid seats here? and they replied no.Even in his class all his batch mates came through entrance test except one guy who got through sifarish

Well Just look at the topic.It is about shortage of officers.There are plenty in India which are ready to bribe to get through army though they are not suitable.If that thing start happening then there will be no shortage but Indian army will become a walkover for as only ineligible will be in the army. There is always a level of corruption and when that level exceeds then there is always chance of getting caught. As far as driving is concerned bribing is now way of life.Indians themselves don't obey the law and prefer to bribe.On any Red light you will plenty of people breaking signals rather than waiting if there is no police .So people are happy to bribe ,police is happy to take it then what's the problem

Quite an exageration In Indian Private sector these 2 things hardly work.They just pick best talent from college's .About Government yes there is corruption but still many goes pass through fair means.

Dal singh Go to an urdu teacher You need some urdu lessons.We in India speak too much urdu BTW Sifarish means approach ,means if you know someone like a high rank army officer,politician etc

SP Singh | Ghaziabad In the end, it was his passion for serving the country that remained the guiding force throughout his short life. "I had a feeling since Saturday when one of his colleagues offered to convey our messages to him when I called on the day he left for action. It was his wish to die for his country. We believe in destiny," said a proud Sardar Bhupendra Singh, father of Captain Davendra Singh, who fell to militants' bullets in Sopore on Tuesday. After completing his computer engineering from IIIT Allahabad and five semesters of MBA from GLA Institute, Davendra was selected in the Army in 2007. His first attempt to join Indian Army failed but his second attempt was successful. With only three months remaining for his degree, he was placed in a very good job through campus interview but instead chose a career with the Indian Army. "When he informed me about his selection in Indian Army after receiving an appointment letter from a reputed company, we agreed to his decision," Singh, former general manager and unit head of Dabur India Ltd, said. Speaking to mediapersons at his residence at Mahagum Mansion in Indirapuram, Ghaziabad, Singh recollected that Davendra had been a passionate boy since childhood. The only son of his family and only brother of his sister, a professor in Jamia Milia Islamia, Davendra took a decision to abort his MBA degree. "When the payscales were compared, the difference was found to be more than double but the entire family had to bow down before his will and passion," Singh said. In December 2007, he was selected in the Signal Corps of Indian Army. During his two-year posting he was selected for the commando course. He visited his family when his grandmother expired last year. At that time he was posted in Kupwara. "Last Saturday he talked to me and informed that he would come on a brief holiday during the Holi festival. It was our last conversation," said the grieving father. "At 7.00 pm on Monday, we were informed by his Commanding Officer that Davendra had sacrificed his life for the nation," Singh said. He was 26 years old. -- --------------------------------------------------- Do you think that these type of persons have joined army through sifarish?

Jhatka/halal is fine I think they allow it to muslim and sikh soldiers.What i mentioned is that if they want to keep sarblohi rehat or something like that then it could become difficult BTW Indian army is only army in world that allow sikhs to even become fighter pilots with beards.USA don't even allow sikhs to even become civilian pilots with beards.So sikhs in Indian army already have much concession

Actually Life in India is much more luck dependent than hard work dependent.My brother recently went through a placement process in MNC software company through campus recruitment.Company came to their campus for mass hiring.One of his friend who did very well in the all the rounds was quite sure getting through it.When results came my brother and all his friends were selected except that guy.Everybody in their college was quite shocked for the non inclusion of that guy because many students much worse than him got selected.There was not even a single answer to anyone why that guy was left out except Luck

Indian army searches for some special qualities no doubt sifarish could work but with present situation,no craze among youths and extreme shortage they simply can't rely on sifarish.Many times this questions was raised that Indian army should lower its standard but they always refused it.Being academically a topper or star athlete could not gurantee a career in Army unless they found OFFIcer like qualities in you

Physical tests for joining army is quite low in India. They have even allowed women with very low physical standards,much lower than men.All they need is officer like qualities to lead.So Nihangs need to modernise themself than joining army on basis of physical standards As far as Rehat is concerned I am afraid they can't.Allowing to much religion to a particular community could Give birth to many disputes.EG A hardcore Brahmin officer don't want to Eat from hand of Dalit.A hardcore muslim may want his halal food only cooked by muslim and list goes and on

MNC means Multi National companies.The Dream job of every youngster is working with them. As far nihungs are concerned if they really want they should educate themself first and then appear for army selection tests.I don't think that GOI will approach any particular group

Actually Punjabi's are not boycotting they are just not interested in armed forces as the career in Armed force is not at all lucrative.Army need's best talent and with the entry of MNc's the pay packet they offer to them is much higher what army offer to them.Moreover the favourate thing of sikhs, chance migrating outside to India is very high With MNCs . If this news is not good for India then it is also not good for sikhs too as it shows the martial quality of sikhs have now gone.They too like others just prefer money ,like bania's

I have read this idea on some forums too .I personally think it is a good idea but army is not implementing it. may be because soldiers are mainly selected on their physical capabilities. They barely need high school certificate while Officers are inducted mainly for their officer like qualities with graduation or doing Graduation with army.may be it is quite difficuilt to train a pendu soldier to be a officer

Indian Army is not facing the shortage of Soldiers.Infact bribe rate for being a soldier is quite High as corruption is their in Army.All they are facing shortage of educated Officers Which are not at all interested in Joining Army because Educated people have more brains than brawn and they run crazily after money
