Two sad events have occurred back to back within a short span. Over 70 CRPF Jawans have been massacred by the Naxals. The disaster is news all over today and everyone is discussing this. Even the Opposition parties (namely, the BJP) have expressed their solidarity with the government in fighting the Naxal menace. Soon this daring - the worst

I hope the government doesn't just push these unwilling, poorly trained jawans into the Naxal lair just to seem like they are doing something about the problem. They need to be trained better.

Was also deeply saddened by Prof. Siras's death. You would think the younger generation would try to change the mindset of the older conservative Univeristy heads; that they actually taped this man and ratted him out is such a shame. I'm surprised the courts and the university are not taking any action against the people who did this, it's clearly a breach of privacy and amounts to harassment.

Also, in other news, the chinese just stole half our 'confidential' military data, did you know? http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/06/science/06cyber.html?hp

Yes, I've followed the news of Chinese stealing the State secrets. I squarely put the blame on our own ministries (armed forces included) for these lapses. Though we are IT savvy nation very little of the expertise available is being made use of within the Government. You've to see to believe the apathy out there.

Shit all over.

I hope not. Remember, you're a Buddhist. Pacifism alone can make the world survive. Not anger.
