The main requirement is (as was stated in the original constitution),
the governor should not be "appointed" by the Prime Minister, but 
should be elected by the state legislature and the Prime Minister 
should not be able to "fire" any Chief Minister at his/her sweet will.

I don't know which "common man" are you refering to, but I 
can give you one example that in 1982 and 1983 about
two hundered thousand (200,000) "common men" went to jails in 
Punjab and they were NOT asking Khalistan at that time! Neither,
were they protesting against the state government.

Some time back there was a posting soliciting support for a Urdu Ghazals
newsgroup, probably on the lines on rec.music.indian.classical. Being from 
Hyderabadi culture It appealed to me . However, in retrospect I feel 
rec.music.indian is a better place to post such discussion. The Guy who 
posted the original proposal seems to have vanished from the net. 
Anyways, this note is for him and others like me interested in Urdu Ghazals. 
Creation of a seperate group is redundant when rec.music.indian can serve 
the purpose. 

Before you offer support to splinter groups it might be best to look wether
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
some existing group can be fruitfully utilized.

I think it is absurd to favor the use of one's own language word while
talking formally in some other language, if there is already a word in
the language you are talking in. Otherwise it is hypocritical.

As far as I am concerned the topic is closed.


Response:

I do not know Hindi or Sanskrit, though I respect these languages
greatly, especially the latter.  I have only rudimentary command of
English, though it is my only tongue.

What is absurd is to limit oneself to any particular rule system
regarding language.  The English word 'should' is abused and exploits
others mercilessly.

My advice is to use the language that you wish to in the way that you
wish to.  Luckily, so far there is no 'Official Office of the Enforcement
in the Use of Language'.  The Thought Police are everywhere, they are
simply self-appointed, my kin!  Beware!

. . . about Hitler's adoption of the swastika as the Nazi symbol and its

Saw Part I of a biography of Hitler on A&E last night and noted a few
points.

1) A form of the swastika, with the arms flowing clockwise and the "main"
arms of the "cross" pointing to 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock, exists above a
statue of a former abbot in a monastery (in Austria? Lenz?) where young
Adolf was a chorister. This was pointed out in the program. Could he have
picked up the sign there?

2) Many have claimed that the Nazi swastika "flows" in a sense that is the
opposite that of the Hindu swastika. What is clockwise when seen from the
inside looks counterclockwise when seen from the outside! So where does
that leave us?

3) Many have also claimed that the Nazi swastika is rotated 45 degs. from
the Hindu swastika. From what I saw on the documentary footage of actual
Nazi rallies on last night's program both, the 3- 6- 9- 12-o'clock and
that rotated 45 degs. w.r.t. this, versions of the swastika found their uses
with the Nazis.

Comments?

Prioritization of resources and attention is as important for nations
as it is for humans.

Given the current situation of India, it is more important for the
government to focus on reforming Indian economy than maintaining
strict control over J&K. If granting autonomy results in more
attention being paid to the rest of the nation, which I am positive
it will, then it is another testimony to the sensible prime minister
from the Great State of Andhra :-) for bringing up the issue.
Personally, I can't care less about the level of autonomy for JK
as long as the country as a whole benefits from improved economy.
It is time for Indians to 'snap out of maudlin nationalist sentiments'
and get going. I wonder who can deliver the snappy slap across the
face, a la Cher's treatment of Nicholas Cage in Moonstruck. 

In any case, it is time for India to reshape its governance by granting
the states greater autonomy and modeling the structure after the far
superior US federal style. Such need for autonomy is more pronounced
in India than US.
