As West, I tell the difference between a Muslim and a fascist. Muslims are my friends, but these people who claim that religion are my enemies!Long live peace, love, tolerance, friendship and brotherhood.

Comprehensive Guidelines for the National Policy for the future of Pakistan



What I dream for Pakistan is something not impossible.

The 62 years after Independence gave Pakistan many things to learn and many events to experience. It was a tough route for progress after achieving Independence with extremely limited resources to begin the journey. The seed of hatred sowed by British rulers on leaving the sub continent made this region an active volcano since decades. 

The Kashmir issue, the issue of disputed areas like Junagadh and Kutch always led this region to perpetual bleeding. The anarchy which the British Empire sowed in this region is still eating our resources, our strengths and more over distracting our focus to become a developed nation. India though has achieved remarkable progress in the last few decades, but the present clouds of war and confrontation would again drag both these countries to the point of agony.

It is true that the slogans like Amn ki Asha (Hope for Peace) cannot be made successful unless the Governments of both these countries could build trust in each other and step back from the alleged actions of dismantling each other's peace by infiltration, supporting terrorism and strengthening insurgencies. Both India and Pakistan blame each other for triggering unrest in each other's region and much is seen as established fact in recent times when Pakistan blames India for triggering insurgency in Balochistan and Tribal Areas while India blames for insurgencies in Kashmir region and in other parts of India.

It is a need for today and for the future of our future generations that Pakistan and India may stop becoming characters of foreign masters to blow each other for the interest of a power which is always there to see this region destabilizing and staying at the tip of a volcano. US and Jewish Interest in this region are purely to trigger more conflicts more wars and more unrest just to increase their influence in this region. Both India and Pakistan are being intimidated by each other's grave threat and their hatred is being multiplied with the passage of time. The fake actions of Mumbai attacks were definitely plotted to throw this region into perpetual agony but God showed mercy on us and we were all spared from a war that could have been devastating for ages to come.

Today both India and Pakistan should think that fighting with each other would only throw us centuries behind from the track of progress and we would not be able to give anything laudable to our generations to come.

In present times I would want that Pakistan should revamp its goals to achieve progress in a faster pace to become a developed nation and an example for the Muslim Ummah. Unfortunately the political parties today in Pakistan have different priorities and their prime goal is always to cash the benefits attached with power they achieve for 4 years. Democracy in whatever shape exists in Pakistan is not strong and the system is also facing severe collapse.

I have closely drawn few important guidelines for a comprehensive national policy which would cover more than a decade to come to set certain targets to achieve development in electric speed.

  • In my opinion, if education is not provided to every person of this nation, our dream for progress would always be a dream and would never see the reality. For educating the masses, a strong program must be developed bringing education to the doorsteps of the poor free of charge and the children of Pakistan would be provided quality education free of charge. If Government is not finding it easy to achieve this goal, private partnership and the help of certain NGOs or Charity organizations may be sought to formulate a one year crash program to give basic education to every Pakistani whether children or elders. This can be achieved and it is not impossible. Involving Multinational and Established Corporate Groups in this quest could be extremely helpful. 

  • Another most important issue is health, which is now a big problem for the nation. With Education, the area of healthcare for each citizen should be given a priority. In this area, we can formulate a joint policy involving Multinational and established corporate groups to bring healthcare standard for every citizen of Pakistan to a mediocre level and later could be elevated to a higher level.

  • The provision of reasonable residence to every Pakistani should be a top priority. I have seen that in Venezuela and Cuba the successful program of Plastic Homes can be taken as a huge example to achieve the target of providing residence to each and every family of the country which is living under poverty level. A mass survey of such families and provision of such residences to them could give a huge relief to the families who are forced to live in slums and substandard living conditions throughout the country. The program of Plastic homes can also help removing slums and illegal katchi abadis from many urban areas of the country. An organized and well maintained colony can also be extremely helpful in controlling law and order situation where it would be easy to access these colonies rather than finding it hard to penetrate into the narrow streets of slums we now have in many parts of Pakistan. These homes can also be provided to villagers or rural areas and this technology can be used to build schools in these areas plus building public toilets and shops too.

  • Pakistan has biggest problem of power crisis. Presently on immediate basis we should take seriously the offer of China to provide us excess electricity they got in their regions close to Pakistani border. A transmission line or whatever the technology allows can be utilized to immediately counter the problem on priority basis to save our Industrial progress which is badly hampered due to power shortage. Further, the gas shortage must be immediately overcome by signing the Gas pipeline project with Iran to immediately cover the shortage of natural gas faced by our Industrial and domestic consumers. Pakistan need to build more dams now on urgent basis to overcome the water and power shortages in the country.

  • To initiate a rapid growth in Industrial sector, initiatives and lucrative offers must be given to local and foreign investors where new Industrial zones to be developed in less developed areas of Pakistan. Tax holidays and many other offers can be formulated. Subsidized Electricity and Gas should be provided to these Industrial sectors for 3 to 4 years until they  develop into a highly operational Industrial zones.

  • Internal security has been a major problem for the country. We can cope up this problem with the help of latest technology. It must be ensured that educated and well trained personnel to be inducted in Police department and in other law enforcing agencies. Complete automation of Internal Security system with the help of latest and affordable biometric and other similar systems to be provided to these agencies. This target can be achieved in mere 2 years time if proper planning is done on priority basis. The inclusion of private sector in developing the most effective surveillance system aided with security cameras, voice detectors, finger print and genetic record of the suspects can be extremely helpful to curb the present wave of crime. 

  • The Judicial system in Pakistan is causing great problem due to delay in proceedings and piled up cases since decades due to lack of interest in solving those issues. It is a need that Judicial tracking system may be introduced and every case should be given a timeline for resolution. After the maturity of timeline or expiry date, the most appropriate verdict must be accorded. The Judiciary understands well how they can bring this idea to reality,we all need our Judges to act in the best interest of our nation.

  • SIM based National Identity Cards is now the most important need for today. These cards must be used in swapping machines installed in main exit and entry points of the cities and on every airport, railway station, bus stand and other exit points like sea ports etc. These swapping machines must be connected to central database which may keep the record of inter city movement of the people living in this country. Any person found entering in the city other than the city of his residence must be reported through this swapping machine system. This system alone can solve many problems pertaining to the security. The need for a Police University is now more important than before. Today the world is advancing to a higher level in the field of intelligence and security arrangements making the developed country extremely safe for any sort of terrorist acts and most of the terror conspiracies are now unfolded before they occur. I dream and I am committed to facilitate the Government if they want my help to elevate the security level in this country. A target of maximum 10 days with Hydroelectric projects to be achieved in 10 years time.

  • In these tense times, the nation is badly missing international sporting events and other cultural festivals which may bring life back to normal in our country. Presently due to security situation staging any big international event seems impossible. But to elevate the sporting aptitude of the nation local tournaments must be organized which must be immensely advertised and arranged on a bigger scale. With the help of Corporate Giants we can achieve this goal too. What I dream with a brilliant plan that in 2 years Pakistan can become an important sporting nation in Soccer, Tennis, , Squash, Grand Prix Racing of both Cars and Motorcycle plus Ice Hockey and Rugby. This will clear the dust in minds of many people around the world about this beautiful country. Nothing is impossible we can do that if we are committed. Like Cricket and Hockey, Pakistan can become a tough competitor in the above mentioned sports and I am sure Insha Allah (God Willing) we can achieve this target too with strong commitment. We can take the help of our Arab friends to set up stadiums for Soccer, Rugby and Tennis and I hope that USA, UK and Australia would help us in elevating the standard of these sports in our country. The time is for peace and sports has the biggest potential to bring peace in this world. 

  • As a nation, Pakistan is very sensitive in seeing India as a trustworthy neighbor. For the sake of the future of our generations to come the resolution of Kashmir issue must be kept on priority. It is hard that both India and Pakistan would step an inch back from their stance on Kashmir issue. Right now the only solution which seems possible is that both these neighbors would declare Kashmir as a mutually administered region. With legislative council governing this region with members of both India and Pakistan. Kashmiri people would be allowed to choose their own leader who may rule this region under the umbrella of this mutual administration. I think Kashmiri people do want peace more than anything now and if India and Pakistan would be able to resolve this issue on the notion mentioned above, there is no point Kashmiri people would oppose it. I must say that both these neighbors should stop themselves from being used by the international conspiring forces who want this region to be thrown in perpetual confrontation to ensure their military equipments, arms and weaponry to be sold here for billions of dollars. Our Government should not become the actors for other's interest. People of both the nations should decide that we should break the wall of hatred between each other and try to give peace and love a chance to flourish. The peace among these rival neighbors would bring many fruits to the region including the reduction in defense budget and resolution of crisis of water and natural resources in this region.

  • Although the hope for peace is there, but Pakistan should also formulate a system to ensure that every healthy and young citizen of Pakistan must compulsorily take the paramilitary training. These training sessions may twice a year and would include both boys and girls to get training of combat situation. Though Pakistan's intention for peace is always important however, we cannot close our eyes from the fact that until the issues of disputes stand between us and India, the possibility of any military conflict would be alive like a flame of fire. In these circumstances, it is quite necessary for every citizen of Pakistan to be prepared and must obtain basic training for combat, first aid, nuclear and conventional attacks plus handling war time situations. It is also very necessary that youth must be given lectures and serious documentary movies may be prepared to bring awareness to nation about the importance of paramilitary training for every Paksitani.

  • In the area of Defense against any aggression, Pakistan should elevate its technological skill to overpower the bigger enemy with ease. Pakistan should involve youth of Engineering Universities to build new kind of weapons to counter the threat of Areal and Sea attacks from an enemy of enormous size. The development of strong missile defense system and inclusion of more armed UAVs plus spying UAVs may enhance the capabilities of our Army. The technology presently available for decoding and distracting enemy missiles must be achieved and enhanced to ensure complete security from areal and missile attack on our country. The recent report that Pakistan is developing the Military Robots for different combat situations is a healthy sign.  Similarly the enhancement of our Navy and developing it into a strong force is a need for today.

  • Pakistan has one of the most powerful armies of the world enjoying complete supremacy on its enemies on technological front. The multiplying the manpower of armed forces is a need for today. Pakistan can increase the number of soldiers in Pak Army and can offer defense assistance to many Islamic nations who are not militarily strong. It is my dream that Pakistan may achieve in future the status of a country having an army serving in many nations to ensure their geographical integrity. Contracts for defending Islamic countries can also bring huge foreign exchange to our reserves. This matter is to be taken seriously.

  • People of Pakistan should now be given equal opportunities irrespective of caste, financial status and religion. Religious crimes and honor killings to be stopped for ever. Women should be given their rights and they must be brought into streamline to earn in their profession along with their husbands and other family members to put a positive impact on their income. Pakistan now needs every person to work day and night to bring Pakistan to the level of a strong and developed nation.  Proper legislation to ensure Women's right should be passed. The name of Islam cannot be allowed to be used in negative acts and meanings.

  • For the betterment of the people and to strengthen the respect for each other's faith, a strict ban, on hate speeches by different religious sects and similar literature with biased propagation against certain community, must be imposed.

  • We all believe that Pakistan has the most talented brains in the world. We should utilize our youth in the field of research in every field like Science, Economics and Combat technology. Pakistan has all the potential to become a strong leader of Islamic nations and peace loving nations of the world.


The points discussed above are basic guidelines for formulation of a long term policy for the Country's future. I would be glad if the readers would identify more areas to be addressed for inclusion during formulation of proposed national policy for the next 5 decades.

Indian Army Lion or a Sheep?

Pakistan Army’s lethal and advanced capability to penetrate deep into the heart of the enemy is an established fact.

 

Proud is the nation of Pakistan that besides so many hurdles and constraints our Armed forces managed to keep abreast with the latest advancements in the field of weapons manufacture and combat technology.

 

No doubt our nuclear capability is an important deterrence for protection of our geographical borders particularly on the eastern side. The ever opportunist and backstabbing enemy like India that is always there ready to inflict huge blow to make us weaker and the weakest since we achieved Independence. Pakistan always had one single threat with India and it multiplied by the passage of time. The designs and the ugly intentions of our enemy made us open our eyes even while we sleep. This clear threat gave Pakistan a target to achieve maximum capability to knock down an enemy which too big in size and resources.

 

When head count is considered, Pakistan is way behind in numeric comparisons with Indian Military’s might. The ratio is quite abnormal when against over a Million soldiers of India, Pakistan has only less than Half a Million. The difference continues when Military equipment, Tanks, Armored vehicles and conventional ordnance’s stockpile is observed. The Air Force of India also has numerical edge over Pakistan with almost 1200 Air crafts as compared to 450 in Pakistan’s Air Force. Naval power has no comparison at all with Pakistan depending on few Frigates, submarines and gunboats and grim Naval Air protection.

 

However when it comes to Missile Arsenal, Pakistan has a clear edge both in terms of technology and the distance.

 

 

Recent failures in the testing of the nuclear capable missiles have been a very big blow for the Indians. The failures are not confined to the missiles only, the story of bribes, kickbacks compounded by wrong decisions has thrown India many years back from the target to achieve self sufficiency in Weapons and Military equipments production.

 

The dream of indigenously producing sophisticated weapons met huge set backs and with the changing scenarios of the region, India needs emergency actions to equip itself with tested, reliable and effective Missile system. The recent study reveals that India spent huge amount of money on the failed program of indigenously built military equipment.

 

Dhruv “Multirole Helicopter”.

Total program costs over US$250 Million.

Unit Cost of Each Helicopter US$ 8 Million

 

The recent crash of Indian Pride Dhruv in an official parade in Ecuador raised many questions about the vulnerability to further crashes of this extremely heavy flying machine of India. Diario Hoy and Ecuadorian Newspaper came up with a flaring cartoon to insult Hindustan Aeronautics Limited which bribed their leaders to purchase the head ache machine for their Army.

 

The question arises that if this Chopper is such a waste, how India can equip its Army with this suicidal machine. It is ironic that no official statement was given by HAL to clarify the reason behind the crash which led Ecuadorians protest furiously on this issue. Further, this incidence was mishandled by both Indian Government and their Company HAL, lead to the closure of all the doors for further deals of selling Dhruv Choppers to different countries around the world.

 

 

Teja Light Combat Aircrafts

Total program costs over US$ 1.5 Billion.

Unit Cost of Aircraft US$ 21.0 Million.

 

Another sorry story of compound failure in creation of a reliable aircraft is Teja. This can be seen as the worst example of the draining the money on an ambitious but ill planned project. The recent news, curiously enough reported by Calcutta Telegraph, that the Kaveri engine being built to power the Teja LCA had failed in high altitude simulation test on the ground was a disappointment

 

Indian Air Force’s Teja is declared as Light Combat Aircraft but its performance and maneuverability cannot be declared as ideal for a stiff encounter. It is quite true to say that Indian scientists and politicians have fooled their nation by spending over a billion dollars for a program which yielded a sub standard aircraft for their Air force.  Unfortunately this aircraft is now confined to training missions only and is not considered for any future combat operations. Full squadron of Aircraft was planned to be inducted in IAF in the mid of 2010 but it does not look to be possible in the present state of affairs. On the speculation and over hyped advertisement of this Aircraft, Indian Air Force and Navy have ordered a considerable number of these aircrafts but every day passes creates suspicion and doubts about the actual capabilities and reliability of Tejas.

 

In short, Teja LCA cannot be seen as a dependable aircraft in any sort of serious combat in future. The problem of weaker engine and failure in high altitude makes it an easy target for other fighter aircrafts of its category.

 

 

Sukhoi SU-30 

Russian Sukhoi Fighter Aircrafts can be termed as the best war machine India has got till now. But unfortunately the irresponsible and ill trained fighter pilots caused more 11 air crashes in past 18 months including 2 Sukhois. That made Indian Air Force ground its Sukhoi fleet for more than a week. It was tried to prove that Sukhoi Aircrafts have technical faults causing the frequent crash but later it was found that technical incapability was the main reason of the disaster of this expensive and yet effective war machine.

 

The crash of SU-30 gave clear proof to the world that Indian Fighter pilots have lack of responsibility and expertise to handle the aircraft of modern age.

 

The shocking news appeared in Times of India revealed more than year before about the sorry state of affairs of Indian Air Force’s training facilities.

 

Rajat Pandit, TNN, 28 October 2008, 01:12am IST

 

NEW DELHI: IAF pilots who become "top-guns" do so despite the system, grappling as they have to with obsolete trainers and simulators, outdated training methodologies and plans. 



It, in fact, is a marvel that IAF pilots can hold their own against American, French and British pilots, as recent air combat exercises have shown, given all this. 


Even as training of the first batch of rookie fighter pilots on the newly-inducted Hawk AJTs (advanced jet trainers) is currently underway at the Bidar airbase, the Comptroller and Auditor General has blasted the entire training process in the force. 



Holding that pilot training was being conducted under "numerous constraints", CAG blamed the government for huge "unnecessary delays" in procuring important training aids as well as IAF for not formulating any long-term training plan for fighter, helicopter and transport aircraft pilots. 



Even the AJTs — 25 of the 66 Hawks have been inducted at Bidar till now under the Rs 8,000 crore project finalized in March 2004 — have come 25 years after IAF first asked the government for them to help train its rookie pilots on the intricacies of combat fighter jet flying and reduce crashes. 


The AJTs, of course, will now help young pilots to bridge the quantum jump from flying sub-sonic aircraft like HPT-32 and Kiran trainers in Stage-I and Stage-II training to directly handling the supersonic ‘highly-unforgiving’ MiG-21s, the norm in IAF till now. 



It’s no wonder that there have been well over 700 crashes recorded by IAF since 1970, killing around 180 pilots and scores of civilians on the ground, with almost half of them being blamed on "human error". 

 

 

 

This staggering accident rate in IAF has, fortunately, seen a turnaround in the last three to four years. But the rate is still unacceptable, considering that over 65 aircraft have crashed since 2003-2004, with 30 pilots losing their lives. 


The CAG report held that "key acquisitions and upgradation of training infrastructure" were lagging much behind schedule due to "poor planning and lack of timely decision-making". 



"Training is being imparted with outdated and ageing aircraft. Absence of vital training aids like simulators, human centrifuge etc also have an adverse impact on the quality and cost-effectiveness of the training," it said. 


The IAF, on its part, should formulate a long-term effective training plan consistent with its long-term strategic objectives, desired force-levels and technological changes. 


"The interim training plans for short periods of two years have led to short-sighted decisions impacting quality of pilot training," said CAG. 


The report was equally stinging on the trainer aircraft being used at present. The single-piston engine HPT-32s, for instance, are "technologically outdated and beset by flight safety hazards". 


"In spite of the loss of 11 pilots and 15 aircraft, they continue to be used. Further, HPT-32 does not aid in smooth transition of trainees to the next stage of training," it said. 


The "limited availability" of the ageing Kiran aircraft for Stage-II training also came in for criticism, with CAG holding that its replacement by the still under-development indigenous IJT (intermediate jet trainer) was quite remote "in the near future". 


"Large number of accidents due to human error is an indicator of the fact that the training facilities in IAF need to be upgraded and training of pilots made more comprehensive, systematic and rigorous," said CAG. 

 

 

“Arjun”  The Main Battle Tank

Total program costs over US$1,050 Million.

Unit Cost of Tank US$ 4.0 Million

 

Quite rightly called the Armored Garbage Trunk oops!! Tank.

 

When it was speculated that Arjun Tank can turn into a breakthrough in Indian dreams of indigenously built tanks, their own Times of India said this about this junk machine.

 

Rajat Pandit, TNN, 8 August 2004, 07:22am IST

 

NEW DELHI: The Army may have taken the delivery of the first five "indigenously-developed" Arjun main battle tanks (MBTs) on Saturday but it still remains slightly skeptical about the tank's combat worthiness and operational mobility. 


"With its excessive weight and width, the Arjun tank has poor operational mobility. It will not be possible to rapidly move it from one area of operation to another on the existing tank transporters on our rail network," said a senior officer. 

 


At 58.5 tonnes, the Arjun is much heavier than the newly-inducted T-90S Russian MBT, which weighs 46.5 tons, and is consequently less maneuverable.
 

 

"It may prove too heavy for some of our bridges. It's also yet to be fully proven that the recurring problems with its engine and fire control systems have been solved," said an officer.

 

The failure has led the capping of the whole project of Arjun Tanks and moving towards finalizing the deals from Russia to obtain a new fleet of MBTs for future.

 

In 2008, the Indian Army announced plans to acquire an entirely new main battle tank unrelated to the Arjun, to be inducted after 2020. The Indian Army has held an "international seminar on future MBTs", during which the parameters and requirements of this future MBT were identified. As a result, Russia has offered to team with India on developing this future tank.These developments do not bode well for the future of the Arjun project.

According to Jane's, the Indian Army has confirmed that the Arjun's production will be capped at 124 units. Lt General Dalip Bharadwaj, the Director General for the Mechanized Infantry, said that "Army will place no more orders for Arjun beyond 124 that was already contracted", because the "Army is now looking 20 years ahead and wants a futuristic MBT.

 

The present decision of Indian Army is a serious blow to the Indian dreams of building MBTs in India. This has also slashed Indian claims to have achieved technological supremacy over Pakistan. Pakistan though enjoyed great success in building its own Al Khalid MBT with all the futuristic options and capability comparable to any MBT of the developed nations of the world.

 

India though dreaming to become the next superpower but continuous failure on the technological front is making its opponents laugh out loud on the claims so religiously made almost repeatedly. The only obstacle in the development of Indian Military Technology is the red taped processing and kick backs attached to military procurements that no doubt a biggest charm for Indian Military high ups and the Politicians. Indigenous production of sophisticated arms is not welcomed as it shuts the gate of huge bribes and commissions attached to such deals. Arjun MBT met the failure much due to the greed of Indian High ups although the tank was never that bad as it was portrayed by the Media.

 

Indian Missiles

Story of immense failures

 

Like Dhruv Helicopter, Teja fighters jets and Arjun Tanks , the story of disappointing failures does not end here. India’s pride the Missile delivery system of Nuclear Warheads met disastrous set backs due to repeated tests not meeting the targeted results. This has led the Indian Missiles not completely cleared for handing over to the Military. The famous “The Hindu” Newspaper says this about the sad story.

 

AGNI ii

 

HYDERABADNovember 24, 2009

The 2,000 km range Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile (IRBM) fired from a mobile platform at 7.55 pm from Wheeler Island, off the Orissa Coast, tumbled into the sea after the first stage. The operation was carried out by the personnel of the Strategic Forces Command of the Army as part conducting user trials.

Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) sources told The Hindu that some malfunction occurred after 60 seconds when the missile reached up to an altitude of 20 kms following which it nosedived. The fact that the first stage, a replica of the SLV-3 (first stage), functioned well showed it was robust. “Something went wrong after the first stage”, the sources added.

A few seconds of malfunctioning, probably in the control system, had affected the normal thrust and resulted in the missile losing its speed. The snag resulted in the high dynamic vehicle becoming uncontrollable subsequently. The problem might have occurred either during separation or ignition of the second stage.

DRDO constituted a special team to analyze the cause of failure. It might take at least 10 days to pinpoint the actual cause and come to a definite conclusion.

This is setback to DRDO as two flights of Agni-II failed in a row. The missile launched in May this year ended up without reaching the full distance after facing a similar problem during the second stage.

The two-stage solid fuelled Agni-II is 21-metres tall and has a thrust phase of 110 seconds. It is capable of carrying a payload of one tonne to a distance of 2,000 km. The weapon system had already been deployed and Monday’s one was picked randomly from a clutch of missiles.

BrahMos

Another disappointing failure was observed when India’s cruise Missile BrahMos did not reach the specified target. Expressbuzz India tells about the story by

Manoj K Das

First Published : 02 Feb 2009 02:11:00 AM IST

Last Updated : 02 Feb 2009 06:59:48 PM IST

 

KOCHI: DRDO scientists have launched an investigation into the failure of the BrahMos army version missile, especially why its GPS system couldn’t link onboard computers with hovering satellites eventually crippling its guidance system and keeping it from achieving mission objectives.

 

The ambit of the probe will also examine why US satellites blinked during the test window, thereby denying the missile the crucial inputs needed for its guidance.

 

A primary analysis of the January 20 test has shown that the missile, a special version capable of hitting hidden targets like terrorist camps, performed the flight plan but missed the target. The missile was supposed to hit a rather insignificant target hidden among obstructions at the Pokharan range.

 

“It had an advance seeker which was to home in on the target using GPS data obtained through US satellites.

 

But it is a mystery why the SCAN technology failed to access the satellites,” said BrahMos sources.

 

The seeker, an advanced one developed to guide the missile to very insignificant targets, was a success during test flights. The seeker and the new software were tested extensively using fighter aircraft flying at top speeds.

 

“Once we were confident of their success, we decided to go in for the first test on the missile. But the failure is a mystery,” top sources told to The New Indian Express, The BrahMos special version, in spite of being an Indo-Russian venture, was fully dependent on US satellites. The Russian global positioning network is not usually used by Indian defense agencies for their strategic programs. “This leads to speculation about why the entire galaxy of US satellites failed to provide signals to the missile. We need to solve the mystery of how the satellites suddenly failed over the Pokharan skies,” sources said.

 

The probe report is expected by Wednesday and will be submitted to the Defense Minister. Though the failure rattled the Army a bit, sources said its top brass was still for BrahMos missiles. “We will wait for the result of the February 20 tests.

 

The missile is still the best to hit a defined and designated target like an enemy depot or an airport. The wait-and-watch is only regarding the advanced version of BrahMos,” sources told to The New Indian Express.

 

Night Blind Army

 

The most shocking of all the revelations by the Indian Army Chief stunned everybody through out the world by the declaration that Indian Army cannot face the night combat.. A report appeared in Khaleej Times on 16 January 2010 regarding the above statement by Gen. Deepak Kapoor.

 

NEW DELHI — As the Indian Army geared up for the 62nd Army Day on Friday, its chief General Deepak Kapoor expressed concern about the force’s ‘night blindness’ in the area of armoured corps and mechanised infantry.

“My major concern is that night blindness of the army is removed so we are able to fight in the night as in the day,” Kapoor said.

Earlier when his attention was brought to the fact that the Indian Army’s tanks have a night vision capability of 20 per cent, Pakistan’s have 80 per cent while China has 100 per cent, Kapoor only replied: “You are right.”“Projects are already in the pipeline to ensure that we have the night vision capability that our adversaries have. It may take three-four years,” Kapoor added. The lack of night vision capability of the Indian Army has affected its fighting capability during the night. The deficiency has been persistent since the Kargil conflict. 

On a query about the obsolete artillery of the Indian Army, the army chief said that successive bans have delayed acquisition of new guns for long.“Artillery is a cause for concern. We need to have better guns. Trials for towed guns are underway. Because of bans the process got delayed. We are now acquiring (ultra light) guns through FMS (Foreign Military Sales) route (from the US),” Kapoor added. The artillery modernisation plan of the Indian Army, which has not bought a single gun for the last 23 years, was derailed when the defence ministry banned seven armament firms including a Singapore artillery major on corruption charges. While the government gave a go ahead to the trials of towed artillery guns, it has opted for a direct sales route in case of ultra light howitzers, in which the Singapore Kinetics was the single vendor.Ultra light guns are required by the Indian Army to position in the mountainous terrain bordering China.

“I would be happy to get the guns whichever way I can. I do not mind if it comes through Foreign Military Sales. The Defence Acquisition Committee cleared it and we are ready to go for it,” he added. 

 

The aftermath of this statement comes as this embarrassing news that Gen.Deepak Kapoor is now facing the curse of forced retirement on medical ground.

 

Suming Up

 

When we sum up the report stated above about the current state of affairs in the Indian Army, it is quite logical to say that India is now where standing confidently with the recent claim made by its Army Chief that India is capable to handle both China and Pakistan single handedly.

 

The fact is that Pakistan in its limited resources surpassed India in the technological front and modernization of its Army with latest technology. The neutral reports suggest that Pakistan is far ahead in Missile Technology with largest inventory of tested missiles with varied ranges and effectiveness. The loyal and devoted scientists, technologists and research team made Pakistan an invincible Military with complete back up state of the art weapons and equipment.

 

Some sources also revealed that India is silent on the issue of recent failures of its Missiles and their government has stopped the Indian Army and the media to give any statement to declare ISI’s involvement in recent failures which had been their regular practice since long. It is said that there is a great possibility that Pakistan’s premier intelligence agency has facilitated the test which successfully proved Pakistan’s capability to jam the GPS detection system and electronic systems of Indian Missiles during their approach towards the target. India accepts that its missile crashed 7 to 10 kilometers away from the designated targets causing huge embarrassment to their nation. The technology of MP-RTIP radar is possibly used to jam the enemy’s cruise missile electronics which may have been obtained by Pakistan’s intelligence to bog down the Indian Missiles in their recent tests.  

 

If talking straight the Indian Missiles are now not more than “Diwali Firecrackers” for its enemies. China is also working fast on Anti Missile system which would be extremely effective to completely neutralize the threat of Indian cruise Missiles. It is an established fact that India is now running hard behind Israel to procure the much tested and effective Arrow and Jericho Missile system to replace its own garbage of Prithvi, Agni and BrahMos. India is running short of time and funds to meet the cost of capping its own Missile program and switching to entirely new system which requires rigorous training and study.

 

Finally, it would be quite easily said that India has wasted a huge lot of money and efforts to yield almost zero in self sufficiency to create its own weapons of International caliber.

 

We are proud that Pakistan has taken the defense production seriously and did not compromise on quality and effectiveness of its weapons. This has created a mammoth difference between Pakistan and India now on the technological front and in terms of the inventory of tested and reliable weapons.

 

God Bless Pakistan

Racial Attacks on Indians in Australia or an Ugly Propaganda



Indian pressure on Australia is mounting up with every passing moment.

The issue of racial attacks on Indian origin natives in Australia has caught worldwide attention. Ugly is the propaganda which so religiously triggered against Australia that was once known as a safe and secure country for the foreign immigrants and students. The recent incidence of killing of an Indian Student by knife was painful but was immediately tagged purposely to racism by the most influential Indian media. Since long every next incident faced by the Indian people living in Australia is quickly framed with racial terrorism causing extremely dangerous situation for the education industry in that country. The severe loss to the Educational Institutions and Universities around Australia embracing thousands of foreign students would be unbearable and could lead to a negative impact on this sector.

It is to be condemned strongly that India is unduly making this issue a pressure tactics to test the nerves of Australian Government and wants them to accept that the attacks were definitely racial. Australia cannot do that, if it would accept that then a new Pandora Box would open. There are many students of different nationalities studying inside Australia and one single admittance of the existence of racial hate would give a serious blow to every part of the Australian society. The wave of this impact would reach many boundaries making Australia suffer badly on tourism, business and education sector. Strangely, India is inflaming this issue for many reasons which needs strong assessment. 

India since long had a very bad mood with Australia due to the reason that Australia had provided asylum to an ex-Prince of the State of  Deccan which was illegally and forcibly captured by Indian forces in 1948. That was a brutal attack on a small state which declared Independence after the partition of India in 1947. It was most shameful that Indians took the advantage of the moment when Pakistan's founder Mohammad Ali Jinnah died September 1948 causing the attention of all the Pakistanis and Muslims around the world on that sad loss of a great leader.  India initiated the barbaric assault over the state of Deccan slaughtering and abducting thousands of people of that state and looting all the wealth and valuables of the King of that state. The Prince of the state of Deccan Mukaram Jah managed to escape with considerable part of his wealth and sought asylum in Australia which embraced him with open arms. 

The other irritant which India had that Australia did not approve the sale of Uranium to India as India has not yet signed the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty (NPT). India has been using sub standard Uranium from its own mines which takes a lengthy process for upgrading. Australian Uranium was always seen as a better choice for the Indian Nuclear Installations. Australia till now is quite stubborn on this issue as it is related to its own laws which it follows seriously. 

Indian nation is quite fond of Cricket. In recent times when India staged the mega million dollars event of Indian Premier League (IPL), it was Australia which allowed its premier players to take part in that domestic tournament of India to make it more popular and more International. Australian cooperation was enormous till the first event. But later in the other edition the enthusiasm from the Australians was not encouraging for the Indians and many key players did not participate in IPL due to International commitments, thus making that event of IPL less important and substandard. In response Indians did extreme humiliation to the retired Australian cricketers participating in that event. The biggest humiliation and insult was faced by the Top Australian Bowler Glen McGrath who was not given a single chance to show up with his team of "Delhi" to prove his worth. In a newspaper McGrath expressed his grief and sorrow over the deliberate humiliation of the sportsman of his status. The racial issue against Indians in Australia is deeply felt by the Indians due to ugly and biased propaganda by the Indian media. The punishment was given to McGrath due the extreme level of hatred Indians now carry against the Australians in their hearts. Australian Cricket Board and the players should also understand that India is now planning to slap a bigger humiliation on the face of the Australia and they should be prepared for that. The reference link shows how the Delhi's Captain insulted McGrath in his interview.


There are several other issues which are making Australia the prey for India for further assaults. India feels that Australia is quite non cooperative in the sense that Indian community could not pierce their influence in the Australian society as they did in USA, Europe and South Africa. The growing influence of the Indians in those regions are making them effect the society and effect the decisions of the national interest of those countries. Many Indians are now part of Barrack Obama's team at White House showing that how much they have pierced into American society.

Australians are seeing the growing influence of Indians quite negatively and they are rightly thinking so. Unduly Indians are flaming the racist issue and even their sportsmen and their famous stars are becoming part of this campaign to blacken the beautiful face of friendly and safe Australia. Recently the top Indian Star Amitabh Bachan refused to accept the Doctorate from Queen's Land University of Technology, Brisbane in Australia just to make the issue of racism a headline for the world newspapers. 

Australian Government should now take a strong stand on this issue. India is a big and growing its influence in many regions. The people of Australia should foil this conspiracy of defaming the people and the system of their country which is known for love, peace and dignity. Australia is ahead in sports, in tourism and lot more, but ugly propaganda against the people of Australia so religiously triggered would lead Australian Government to unwillingly accept the demands of the conspiring Indians and would open a new bunch of complexities. Tomorrow, it will be Philippines, then Malaysians, then Indonesians and then every one would stand against Australia with the slogan of racial discrimination. 

India has smartly converted the individual crimes to a racial issue just to pressurize and insult Australia. Such crimes happen everywhere in the world. Even in USA and Europe lot of Indians have been killed during crimes like thefts, robberies and lot more, but the racial issue was never raised there. Australian people should understand the motive behind these attacks and the satanic disinformation in the media propagated by the Indians. They should rise up to defend Australian norms and Australian society from the parasite which would weaken the nation which is so valuable and adorable.

Indian Naxals/Maoists turning into a Global Threat

 

 A Must Watch Video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ4MZRHOJDw

 

Once a peaceful city of Gadchiroli in the Maharashtra State of India is now facing a worst threat of Naxals/Maoists (NM) infestation. The signal is clear that Maharashtra is now going to become the part of Red Corridor very soon.

 

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/90/India_Red_Corridor_map.png

 

Since long the threat of NM has taken all of the India into a strong grip. The hiding of reality and defying the questions of the media in this context made this menace reach the urban centers of the world’s most emerging super power of the future. In comparison to Taliban of Pakistan that were focused by the world as they were believed to be reaching the Capital of Pakistan and capturing Nuclear Assets, the intensity of NM seems to be more lethal and devastating. India blames China for providing them weaponry and as usual it also raises finger on Pakistan’s ISI but it is a reality that NM are building their fire power not only through alleged foreign help but most alarmingly creating their own Improvised Explosives Devices (IED) and other weapons indigenously. Following is the report suggesting that  NMs are manufacturing their own weapons now!.

 

Source:

http://www.expressindia.com/latest-news/Naxals-setting-up-arms-factories-developing-electronic-IEDs/476239/

 

Giridh, Jharkhand The Naxals, who surprised everyone by using rocket launchers for the first time during the Lok Sabha polls, have already set up about four units to manufacture weapons and ammunition, say central security agencies. The Naxals, who usually target security forces with manual improvised explosive devices, are now slowly developing remote-controlled IEDs which can be activated from a distance with just the push of a button.

The improvement in fire-power is being supported by intensive training on the lines of regular forces,say sources. Central security agencies and local police sources say the Maoists have started two factories each in the dense forests and hills of both Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh. Sources say that though another such factory existed earlier in Bihar, the Naxals have dismantled it.

Early last year, a combing team of the CRPF and the local police had come across one such unit used for making small bombs and mortar shells in Jharkhand. The Naxals who are trying to improve their firepower have also come out with the deadly 'Claymore Mines', or what are often called 'directional IEDs'.

Unlike in the past, when IEDs use to be buried beneath the road in a small can, the Claymore Mines, which come with a thick aluminium plate, can be fitted to a tree.

The IED, when exploded, will deflect the shrapnels in a direction opposite to the plate, thus focusing them to a particular area as against conventional IEDs where the impact is in a circular area around the device. Certain blasts in Chhattisgarh have pointed to the possibility of remote-controlled IEDs being used but they are yet to become a standard strategy for the Naxals, say sources. "Naxals are constantly trying to improvise and have also set up factories for this. During searches by security personnel, they have come across few chips which suggest that they are trying to develop remote-controlled IEDs. If they succeed, it would prove deadly," according to a source. "The Naxalites also make their own guns besides those snatched from policemen and procured from outside. Their locally-made guns called 'pahar' can be used to severely injure a person if not kill him. The pellets break into pieces on impact and hence are deadly," the source says.

The left-wing extremists are known for using gelatin sticks in their explosives. They are sourced from mining areas, say sources. A source says that the Maoists also undergo military training similar to that of securitymen, which "suggests a possibility of ex-army or ex-policemen" helping in preparing training modules, whether due to force or their own wish.

One of the Naxal training CDs seized by security forces in Andhra Pradesh gives an insight into the training modules with the militants practising crawling backwards. Security forces have also come across abandoned centres of Naxals having rope climbing, ladder, crawling tunnels and other obstacles used for hard training. The Naxals have also hit upon an innovative way to store their ammunition by hiding it in branded plastic water tanks placed in the ground and covered with mud and stones. Sources said the logic behind it was that there are less chances of formation of moisture, which might damage the ammunition.

The above report suggests that Indian security forces would not find it easy to stop NMs in near future because they have developed themselves into a parallel lethal army.

 

Coming back to the main topic, the spreading of Mao Zedung’s ideology throughout India is creating a greater menace for the world forces that are in support for free democratic system and the Capitalism. The world is looking towards India as a nation progressing with enormous pace, but the poverty level in majority of India displays a negative picture. NMs have the sympathies of the most thrown away and ignored people who are now becoming part of their movement. The NMs infestation when seen reaching the Urban centers of India raises the question that why these forces are not obstructed till now! There is a great understanding that Indian security forces and Army is not ready to encounter NM as they have reasonable fire power and ammunition to counter any attack initiated against them. It looks that within months most of the big cities would fall into NM’s lap and the government could not move its shoulder then.

 

Another main reason for India’s staying back from decisive action against NM is the staging of Common Wealth Games on 3rd October 2010 in Delhi. But to shock many NM have already reached the outskirts of Delhi.

 

The witness’s note of Delhi’s train hijacked by NM forces as seen in the video linked below shows that the menace of NM is far more horrible than it is normally discussed.

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8nnC7vgGoY

 

It would be a great risk for the participating players of different countries because, India cannot guarantee the safety of those who would come there to play with free of mind and without any fear.

 

India’s reluctance to initiate any action against the NM forces before the Common Wealth games also indicates that this opportunity would be capitalized by them and they would infest more urban areas beyond the Red Corridor. The Government of India is now saying that they will start an operation against NM forces but they are not sure how intensified that operation would be because the moment this operation would be started the international media would jump quickly to highlight the developments. This can negatively affect the efforts of India to project itself as a safer nation. It would also strengthen the fear that Delhi’s Common Wealth Games would be endangered due to the planned operation against the NM insurgents by not involving the regular Army. Following link proves that strong voice is raised inside India to keep the action against the insurgents on low profile as any intensity in the encounter would lead to collateral damage to the face of the progressing and safe India.

 

http://www.asiaone.com/News/Latest+News/Asia/Story/A1Story20091027-176226.html

 

The delay in taking action against NM forces is however creating a possibility that these insurgents would try to capture most of the territory in the coming days. In an interview published in the weekly magazine, the Maoists Leader Mupalla Laxman Rao, better known as Ganapathi, said that any offensive might secure some early gains but insisted that the rebels would eventually triumph. Following link has the interview of the Rebel Leader who is quite confident to give Indian forces a tough encounter.

 

http://www.defencetalk.com/indian-maoists-vow-tornado-uprising-report-22664/

 

 

In conclusion, the growing possibility of NM taking whole of India like a storm is nothing out of the reality. The present help by International media to India by not highlighting the real threat is seen as a criminal act because if the people of the world are not shown the clear picture, it may create a bigger catastrophe for many foreigners who are intended to visit India for either business or tourism. The recent threat by NM that foreigners would be kidnapped should also be taken seriously.

 

Following link has extremely important information regarding Kidnapping motives by insurgents inside India. The situation is alarming and extremely dangerous.

 

http://en.allexperts.com/q/Travel-India-192/2009/11/Kidnapping-Motive-India-INDIA.htm

 

Recently, American Government has issued clear warnings to its citizens to revisit their plans to tour India as there is a growing threat to the lives of Foreigners working, touring and engaged in business deals inside India. The warning of American Government is taken very seriously. Following is the link contains the exact text of Travel Alert issued by US Government to its Citizens intended to travel to India.

 

http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/pa/pa_4624.html

 

Further, the recent cases of Uranium theft, leakages and explosions in the Nuclear Installations inside India also raises serious concern about the possibility of environmental catastrophe and the bad intentions of the terrorists who have obtained sufficient quantity of Uranium to make any kind of nuclear explosive device.

 

http://isamaa.tv/report/2010-01-01-indian-nuclear-assets-posing-threat-to-the-environment/

 

It is now the responsibility of Global community to understand the intensity of problems attached to India which could lead to a devastating situation.

 

From NM’s insurgency to irresponsible attitude towards safety of Nuclear Installations may lead to immense danger to the lives of people living in India and for those who have any intention to visit to India in the near future.

 

India should be pressurized by UN and United States of America in particular because the growing menace of Naxals/Maoists insurgency is leading to complete influence of Communists in India. The west had been united to diffuse the Red storm of USSR more than a decade back, but can they handle much bigger threat of people idealizing Mao Zedung and capturing India completely to make it another large Communist country like Russia and China.

 

 The time has come when this threat is to be seen with eyes wide open!

 

The threat of a destabilizing India and drowning completely into insurgencies would create security threat for the neighboring countries and the impact would be enormous and devastating to this region. If Indian Government would not realize it’s responsibility to the International Community, then this wild fire of uncontrolled insurgencies would make this region a living hell.

Indian Nuclear Assets threatening the Environment

 

The growing incidents of radioactive contamination and improper security arrangements at the Nuclear Installations in India are catching the world’s attention and creating an alarming situation for the region. People living in the neighboring countries of India should also prepare themselves in current crisis situation because the extremely irresponsible attitude of India is throwing this region into a living threat of radioactive contamination.

 

I would like to share a report here which would support my view point.

 

http://www.bulatlat.com/main/2009/12/12/deals-that-threaten-disasters/

 

by: J. Sri Raman

 

Deals for 16 reactors in a single day – so read India’s nuclear score card on December 7, 2009. On this date, an agreement was reached in Moscow, under which the country would get four more nuclear reactors from Russia. Simultaneously, in New Delhi, a US Commercial Nuclear Mission told the media that, under the US-India nuclear deal, “a minimum” of 12 plants would be set up, with the work on them starting in 2010-2011.

This latest advance of India into its own “nuclear age” – as the atomic establishment and its loyal acolytes hail it – came within two weeks of the latest of nuclear “incidents” to shake up the nation.

The surge in the deals has followed in quick succession to similar media-celebrated agreements with five other countries – France, Kazakhstan, Namibia, Mongolia and Canada. The rude shock came from the “incident” in the nuclear complex at Kaiga in the south Indian State of Karnataka.

The complex has been in operation since March 2000, under the Nuclear Power Corporation of India. Kaiga has four of the eight nuclear reactors officially acknowledged as strategic and, therefore, placed outside the purview of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguards. Kaiga is close to India’s major naval base, INS Kadamba.

The radioactive contamination of drinking water in the complex, which led to hospitalization of scores of employees (figures varying from the officially cited 55 to 92 according to some sources), shook India, though no life was lost. It revealed in a flash the potential magnitude of the danger that the functioning of this proud asset of the county’s nuclear establishment represented.

The theories about the incident emanating from the authorities and others do not diminish the danger at all. According to the authorities, some “mischief-maker” or “mischief-makers” among the employee of the complex – rank “insiders,” in other words – seem to have added tritium-contaminated heavy water to a drinking water cooler. The serious crime, it is said, could be either a particularly nasty prank or a case of sabotage.

Tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen also known as hydrogen-3, can be used as a booster in the making of fission bombs as well as thermonuclear weapons or hydrogen bombs. Tritium emits beta rays which, if ingested, can cause death, cancer and mutations.

By one unofficial version, the incident resulted from inter-union rivalry. By another, it was a case of disgruntled employees trying to discredit the management. Some political mischief-makers outside the complex indulged in loud speculation about the hand of “illegal” Bangladeshi immigrant laborers behind the incident, hoping to start another anti-Muslim hate campaign. Mercifully, however, investigations have reportedly ruled out that possibility.

Many questions, meanwhile, have been raised without getting any serious official response. Why did it take so long for the incident to be reported in any detail? It took place the night of November 23-24. A single-line story first appeared in the scroll of a television channel on November 25, but the full official acknowledgment of the incident had to wait for several days. It took even longer for authorities to go to the police. Was this not a hush-up attempt, bound to fail as the families of the victims could not be silenced?

Whether an accident or sabotage, how did the allegedly ironclad regime of procedures in the reactors allow it? As anti-nuclear activist Surendra Gadekar asks, how could anyone steal a vial of tritium, made at a cost of up to $100,000 a gram, with such ease?

Questions have been asked – and remain unanswered – about other, past “incidents” at Kaiga as well. Some Truthout readers may remember the report on “Death of an Indian Nuclear Scientist” (June 24, 2009). The mysterious end of Lokanathan Mahalingam was reported on India’s television channels on June 13. It took us ten full days to hear from the authorities in the subject. They cited a forensic laboratory finding to assert that it was a suicide.

Mahalingam was training young scientists and working in the simulator training division of the plant. A simulator is a precise replica of the control room of a nuclear power plant The scientist had created a similar mystery ten years before, while working in the Kalpakkam nuclear complex in the neighboring State of Tamilnadu, which has two of India’s strategic nuclear reactors. Then, too, he is said to have disappeared one day and returned home after a never-explained gap of five days.

Among the questions raised in June were: Why was his body, found in the nearby Kali River, cremated before the results of the DNA test done at the insistence of his family were released? How did the authorities instantly rule out murder when he did not leave a suicide note?

The Mahalingam mystery was recalled after the latest Kaiga incident, but not any of the questions. No one seemed interested in reopening the case. The authorities have not succeeded so easily in an earlier case of mysterious death. Ravikumar Mule, a non-scientist employee at Kaiga, was found “dead” in an apartment in the township on April 7, 2009. His widow, Ashwini G. Mule, has now demanded a fresh investigation, rejecting as final the reported police finding that her husband had committed suicide.

This is not the first incident at Kaiga. Even during construction in 1994, one layer of the first unit’s containment dome collapsed, delaying by four years a start to its operations. Nor is Kaiga an exception in India’s nuclear establishment in this regard.

A similar incident took place in the heavy water plant of Rawatbhata in the State of Rajasthan in 1991 and, to date, the findings of any official investigation into it have not been divulged. The long list of other incidents includes, besides several cases of workers’ exposure to impermissible doses of radioactivity, a fire in the Narora plant in the State of Uttar Pradesh (1993), the flooding of the Kakrapar station in the State of Gujarat (1994), and a heavy water spill in Kalpakkam (1999).

The question of questions about all these “incidents” is: why has no independent, external inquiry ever been conducted into any of them? The unstated answer is: such an inquiry cannot even be contemplated, since every nuclear installation is part of India’s security establishment.

This perverse notion of “security” makes every one of India’s proud nuclear deals a threat of disaster. 

The repeated security lapses and alarmingly low level of response to these kind of incidences raise multiple questions about the vulnerability of Indian Nuclear Assets.

The most shocking is the painful incident at Bhabha Atomic Research Center (BARC) the mysterious fire cooked two young scientists and left their families with a painful question mark!!

The detailed report is posted here for the readers

http://www.topnews.in/family-cries-foul-barc-scientists-body-are-handed-over-2248639

Mumbai, Dec 30 : As investigators struggled to find the cause of a fire in the country's premier Bhabha AtomicResearch Centre(BARC) that killed two scientists, the family members of one of the victims Wednesday have demanded a "thorough probe" into the accident.

"We are shocked at the attitude of the BARC officials though an incident of such a magnitude has taken place. We want a complete inquiry by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into it," Munna Singh, uncle of Umesh Narayan Singh who died in the blaze, told IANS.

A loud explosion followed the fire that had broken out in a room on the third floor of the modularlaboratory Tuesday noon when the two junior scientists were present on the premises. Both were killed.

As per preliminary investigations, the fire is suspected to have erupted following a chemical reaction that led to a blast in the laboratory housing analytical instruments.

Grieving over the loss of his nephew as the victim's body was brought home here late Wednesday, Singh said that usually there would be five or six fellow research students and a senior person present on the premises.

"Why were these two boys alone in the laboratory at the time of the incident? We want answers to these questions as it has national security implications," he demanded.

His friends have alleged that police and the BARC officials made them run from pillar to post before they finally got Umesh's body - charred beyond recognition - from the Sir J. J. Hospital's morgue.

Though police have tentatively ruled out foul play or negligence on the part of BARC, they have sent samples of the victims to the Forensic Sciences Laboratory at Kalina and also taken the DNA samples.

The cause of the fire remains unknown so far even as police and BARC officials spent the entire day in investigations at the complex in Chembur, northeast Mumbai.

Hailing from a humble, lower middleclass family of a former mill worker, Umesh was working in BARC for nearly five years. He was just six months away from completing his doctorate.

"The BARC did not have the courtesy to inform us officially, we learnt only from the media that Umesh is no more," Umesh's brother-in-law Uday Pratap Singh told reporters.

The grieving family members of the other victim, Parth P. Beg, 26, also arrived from Kolkata to collect his remains. His family members refused to speak to the media but said that he was doing his research at the BARC for the past 18 months.

Meanwhile, police in Trombay has registered a case of accidental fire and investigations into the cause of the fire are in full swing.

All top BARC officials remained incommunicado throughout the day as the fallout of the incident was being probed - both by the BARC and the police.

However, Chairman of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) Srikumar Banerjee was present in the BARC Wedensday, an official said.

However, there was no danger to the main reactor in the BARC or any other sensitive facilities that could lead to radiation or radioactivity, the spokesman said.(IANS)

 

 

 

It is most disgusting to note that main stream Newspapers and Channels of India take this matter on low profile due to constant pressure of the Government. The present situation is also a visible sign that it can be linked to the fact that America is constantly pressurizing India to open up its nuclear installations to be checked by their officials to asses the security level and aid Indians to build some sort of protection to avoid future mishaps.

 

Indians are quite unaware that accelerating incidents of Uranium thefts, radioactive contamination and kidnapping of scientists could be engineered by CIA to convince Indian Government to seek USA’s help to secure its nuclear assets thus providing clear route to US agencies to obtain complete information and facts about the Indian Nuclear capabilities plus complete intervention in the activities in these installations.

 

Another possibility also emerges as the anti Indian forces are penetrating inside its nuclear assets and have arrived to the understanding that poor security arrangements may give potential opportunity to them to pull out the blue prints, the material and the technology of creating Nuclear Arsenal to be used for any sort of terrorist activity.

 

In short, India is proving to be a dangerous nation for the world’s security. The growing lapses of security in the most important Nuclear Installations raised huge alarms before and now the water is rising above the heads.

 

It is also the responsibility of the world community to pressurize India through the platform of United Nations, United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), Green Peace and other global environmental protection groups to convince India to allow western assistance to elevate the security level of its Nuclear Installations. In the other case, Indian nation and the people living in the neighboring countries should prepare themselves to face the worst incident of radioactive contamination in this region or a possible nuclear explosion by the terrorists like Maoists or Al Qaeda. India gave the world a never forgetting disaster of Bhopal gas leakage which killed thousands of people. Now any such catastrophic disaster would lead to a very dark future for the people of this region.

 

I would ask the Global Community to act together and raise their voice on this issue because it is the matter of great importance and any weakness in plucking the possibility of radioactive contamination would lead to never ending disaster in this region.

Indian Nuclear and Missile Tests A Shocking Reality

 

The failed nuclear tests at Pokhran between 10th and 13th of May 1998 proved to be extreme blunder of the Indian History now. The impact and the set backs of these failed tests caused extreme frustration and unwilling changes in many plans which India was banking on since long. 


The main motive of 1998 nuclear tests by India was to completely push Pakistan to back foot.  India was all set to give a clear message to the world that it has achieved complete supremacy in the South Asian region due to its Military might and with a stockpile of effective Nuclear Weapons. A huge country with enormous economic growth and unmatchable power of Conventional and Nuclear weapons could have brought great influence to India in this region and probably a confirmed permanent seat in the UN Security Council. There were also false claims made by RAW and Military High ups of India which led the then Prime Minister Mr. Atal Bihari Vajpayee to had been completely convinced that Pakistan was unable to initiate its own nuclear test in fear of International reaction. But, the most hyped tests were not only proved to be failed but subsequent tests by Pakistan on 28th May 1998 completely shut the beak of the Indian ostrich.  


India still curses the loss of huge edge it got before Pokhran tests in 1998 which not only changed the power scene of this region but also threw India into many doubts about its own nuclear capabilities. Intelligence inputs suggest that India is facing another blow due to its failed Missile program which is also creating big head ache for the Military high ups. India is now on an emergency plan with the help of Israel to restructure its Missile program which was previously based on Russian technology. The Missile program now needs a serious upgrading and revamping because of growing challenges in the region. It is also widely believed that among many factors which are believed to be like American pressure and the fear of lack of International support, the possible attack on Pakistan after 26/11 Mumbai terrorism were backed off only due to sorry report of Indian Nuclear capabilities and spineless Missile system. It is also believed that it was after 26/11 when the reports of failed tests of Pokhran came into reality otherwise it was an internal secret before.
 

Following is the complete report appeared on famous Indian News website of Times of India which clearly shows the frustration and complete helplessness of the Indians on the grave matter of dud nuclear tests. 


Times of India - Srinivas Laxman, TNN 18 September 2009, 01:44am IST 


MUMBAI: Eleven years after India tested nuclear bombs in the deserts of Pokhran, embarrassing details about the test fizzling out have exploded into a full blown controversy with top nuclear scientists on Thursday demanding that the government institute an inquiry to determine whether the test failed. Former nuclear czars said they were ashamed that information had been hidden. 

 
Three former nuclear leaders -- M R Srinivasan, P K Iyengar and A N Prasad  said in the wake of revelations by K Santhanam, project leader for Pokhran II, the government must order a peer review into the yield of the thermonuclear test of May 1998. 

 
Santhanam went public first on August 26, saying that the yield from the test was far lower than what prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee's government claimed. On Thursday, in a newspaper article he disclosed embarrassing details saying the test was a failure because the yield was only 25 kilotons, nearly half of what the scientists had then claimed. He said that a meeting of scientists discussed the failure soon after the test and decided to hide it. He also pointed out that the failure meant that India now did not possess a credible nuclear deterrent, indicating that warheads on India's long-range missile could have far less punch than expected. 

 
 
R Chidambaram, former chairman of Atomic Energy Commission and the architect of the nuke tests; Anil Kakodkar, then director of Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, and APJ Abdul Kalam who led the team from Defence Research and Development Organisation, have insisted the device operated according to its design specifications and the yield was 45 kilotons.  
 
At a meeting on September 5, the AEC dismissed the first statements made by Santhanam, saying through different types of analysis it was established that the yield of the thermonuclear test was 45 KT. Now, even scientists in Barc, the nation's top nuclear weapon establishment, doubt the claim. 

 
 
While saying he was surprised by Santhanam's article, M R Srinivasan, former AEC chairman, told TOI it was time for both Chidambaram and Kakodkar to clarify the situation. ``In such circumstances I think a peer review is certainly warranted,'' he said. At the same time he said he still stood by the official position and would support Chidambaram and Kakodkar regarding the yield of the thermonuclear test. ``A lot of information has been published and is on record. So I have really no reason to disbelieve at this stage either Chidambaram or Kakodkar on this issue. However, because of the current controversy, I think the best recourse would be for both of them to clarify the position through a peer review,'' he added. 

 
 
Former Barc director, A N Prasad, who has all along maintained that the thermonuclear test was anything but a success, said, ``The painful fallout of this episode is that the credibility of the nuclear scientific community and the respectable name of Barc is being damaged by a few at the top.'' 

 
In a direct attack on Kalam and Chidambaram, Prasad said: ``If all that Santhanam has written is true, then people occupying high places have misled the country. If all the data about the thermonuclear test has been held by one man (Chidambaram), then how can it be scientifically contested or debated? He has kept it under wraps.'' 

 
 
Stressing that there should be a probe by a committee constituted by the government, Prasad said that the team should comprise those having serious doubts about the yield of the test as well as experts who can include former nuclear scientists who have been raising their voices. ``It should not consist of only yes men. It should consist of those who are knowledgeable, who have the capacity to investigate such a serious matter,'' he said.  
 
``If this committee concludes that the thermonuclear test had completely failed then the government has played a major fraud on the people of this country,'' he said. Asked if the AEC itself can investigate, he replied: ``It has credibility, but no expertise.''  
 
Another former AEC chief, P K Iyengar said, ``The government should undertake an active investigation immediately following the statements made by Santhanam in the article. I am feeling really ashamed.'' 

 
Regarding a revelation in Santhanam's article that the thermonuclear device had not yet been weaponised like the fission devices, he said: ``How will they do it if they are doubtful about the yield? This itself is a clear indication that the test was not a complete success.''  
 
Both Iyengar and Prasad said the disclosures by Santhanam, that there was no disturbance to the shafts at ground zero, was also proof that the test was unsuccessful.
 
 



The above report is clear evidence that it can be possible that the actual yielded result of the tests could be lower than 25 KT, throwing Indian scientists into complete confusion and had badly shattered their confidence too. It is bad luck for the Indians that the report about the dud tests came at a point when India was all set to teach Pakistan a lesson of the lifetime after 26/11 Mumbai attacks.  


Amid all these circumstances the failure of Missile tests also aggravated the situation and made Indian Army think that in case of any serious confrontation between India and Pakistan, India would face unbelievable embarrassment if the Military would fail to hit the potential targets and loose the war heads too due to the crashing of Missiles in the middle of its approach or missing the targets completely. 


In the following report India clearly admits the failed cruise missile test

NEW DELHI (AFP) — A supersonic cruise missile jointly developed by Russia and India failed to hit its target in a test previously reported as successful, Indian military scientists said Wednesday. The Defence Research and Development Organisation, which Tuesday claimed the test of the BrahMos missile had been a "total success," said the missile had flown only in the general direction of its target. "The missile performance was absolutely normal till the last phase, but it missed the target, though it maintained the direction," BrahMos project chief Sivathanu Pillai told the Press Trust of India.


The eight-metre (26-foot) missile weighs about three metric tonnes and can be launched from land, ships, submarines or aircraft, travelling at a speed of up to Mach 2.8. It has a range of 290 kilometres (180 miles) and is designed to carry a conventional warhead. The missile was fired from the Pokhran range in the western desert state of Rajasthan, bordering Pakistan, that was also the site of India's nuclear tests in 1998.The Times of India newspaper Wednesday suggested the failure was a result of an attempt to configure the missile to carry a nuclear warhead. Pillai did not comment on the newspaper's report but said his scientists were trying to debug the guidance system of a missile that had been tested 20 times in the past eight years."A new software used for this mission will be revalidated through extensive simulations and a flight trial will be carried out in a month's time to prove the augmented capabilities of the missile," he said.India and Russia -- its largest military supplier -- hope to mass produce the BrahMos for export. Nuclear-armed India, the largest arms buyer among emerging countries, has already begun arming its navy and army with the BrahMos as a tactical battlefield weapons system.The missile is named after India's Brahmaputra River and Russia's Moskva River.

 
 
Further to complete shock to the Indians another Missile test this time of Agni II  also failed miserably to break the bone of India's hopes to claim itself to be self reliant in the missile technology. 

Times of India TNN 24 November 2009, 12:28am IST

BALASORE: India's nuclear-capable intermediate range Agni-II missile, test-fired for the first time after sunset on Monday, reportedly failed to 
get the desired results.

The Army test-fired the surface-to-surface Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile (IRBM) from the Integrated Test Range (ITR) from Wheeler’s Island, Bhadrak district, around 7.50pm.‘‘The liftoff and the first stage separation was smooth. But it faltered just before the second stage separation and behaved erratically, deviating from its coordinated path. Further analysis is on to ascertain the cause,’’ said a source. 

The entire trajectory of Monday’s trial was tracked by a battery of sophisticated radars, telemetry observation stations, electro-optic instruments and a naval ship. 

The launch, originally scheduled in the first week of this month, was deferred due to some technical snags in its pneumatic system. Though the snags were rectified, another glitch surfaced during Monday’s test, leading to the fiasco, the source claimed. 

The nuclear capable 2,000-km-plus range missile has a length of 20 meters, a diameter of one meter, weighs 17 tonnes and can carry a payload of around 1,000 kg. It was first tested on April 11, 1999. 

The test launch was significant from India's strategic point of view because for the first time since the beginning of DRDO’s missile development programme, a missile was put under trial during night. The user trial was conducted by Army officials while scientists from DRDO were present to provide necessary logistical support




India after recent failures finds itself at a position where it can doubt its own capabilities to handle any nuclear assault either from China or from Pakistan in case of  any future conflict in the region. India is now banking on the hopes that Israel would provide the technology of Jericho ground-to-ground missile system which may help India to substitute its garbage program of Cruise Missile and Multiple ranged Missiles which are definitely  stuck in the intermediate stage and cannot be completely relied upon. The recent advancing relationship with USA is also helping India to shelve its own Missile technology and substitute it with already tested and dependable technology which America would offer to India to wipe out the sorrow of the failures on the technological front. 

The set backs after shameful failures in Nuclear and Missile technology left India with no choice but to look towards USA, Israel and Russia to provide their own tested Missiles and  few Nuclear Weapons too to maintain its inventory with dependable and trusted Missiles and warheads. But to achieve that, India could be giving many concessions to these countries including access to the testing, production and storage sites of Nuclear weapons and Multiple ranged Missiles.

Mumbai Attacks Truth Uncovered

 

The drama of Mumbai attack is now badly failed and proves to be an extreme embarrassment for the Indians. Poor Indians were completely convinced that the attacks were planned and executed through Pakistani intelligence agency the “ ISI”  and “Lashkar e Toiba” a Kashmiri Militant group allegedly having ties with Pakistan’s Army.

 

To get complete picture of the situation I would want the readers to read the following reports carefully because every word of these reports stands important and would act as a clear proof that Indians have got themselves trapped in an ugly situation where they cannot claim that Mumbai attack was an outside job!!

 

I have purposely selected the Indian source here to validate the claim I would make over here.

 

Report No. 1 – Important Witness

http://news.rediff.com/special/2009/nov/18/she-saw-the-terrorists-two-days-before-2611.htm

 

Everyone seems to know Anamika Gupta at the bustling Leopold Cafe, now an even more famous landmark of Colaba in south Mumbai  salaams from waiters, nods from the manager and even greetings from some of the regulars.

Are her repeated trips back to Leopold -- where she took three bullets on November 26 last year -- catharsis? She shrugs dispassionately, not agreeing nor disagreeing.

"Maut ko hum ne kareeb se dekha hain. Main zindagi guzaar rahi hoon. Kal kis ne dekha hai (I have seen death at close quarters. I am living my life. Who has seen tomorrow?)? I could have died. But I am here?! Life is bull s--t. There is finally nothing."

Anamika's take on life, since miraculously surviving 26/11, swings between the cheerfully brave, the dramatic and then the mildly morose. Life for her will never be the same again.

"I am a beautician. I have to be on my feet for eight hours or more. Now I can't sit for even six hours," she says.

She no longer works as a beautician and exists on a monthly income she receives from one of the 26/11 funds -- the 26/11 Mumbai Terror Attack Survivors Support and Rehabilitation Project sponsored by the Tatas.

Her injury, a massive and angry swathe across her stomach, her doctor says, will take another six months to heal. "I used to be beautiful. I was conscious of my figure. Now, that all is over. I am a beautician (she says again) so naturally I think beauty is important. Of course, beauty is in the heart too. But your figure is also important. When I see my body in the mirror I wonder who will marry me."

What upsets Anamika more, right now, is her recent interaction with the police. On November 5, 6 and 7, Anamika was called to the Mumbai police commissioner's office to re-record, she says, her original statement that she gave, wounded from her bed at the J J Hospital last year.

She was called to re-record her statement after an interview she granted the local Lemon television network, which aired November 2.

Anamika feels the police do not take her evidence seriously because they think she is seeking publicity. "They are saying I am after TRPs (Television Rating Points, which indicates how popular a television program is. I am surviving myself. Does the police commissioner have a bullet? I don't mind if they harass me, but they call up my brother, my mother and my sister-in-law and harass them."

She says she had given the exact same evidence to the police last year and they did not take cognizance of it. She says it was conveyed to her that much of her information was not needed.

Anamika said she told them, "I saw the terrorists who attacked Leopold Cafe two days before 26/11. It was 1.30 am. I used to live in Colaba market near Dr Modi's clinic (close to Nariman House). I saw four people leave Nariman House and get on two motorcycles and go to Delhi Darbar (a restaurant near the Regal cinema in south Mumbai). I am a chain smoker and I went out to buy cigarettes at the cigarette wallah that stays opens very late in front of Delhi Darbar. I love beautiful bikes so I noticed them. They were beauuutiful bikes. And one of the boys was very good looking, so I noticed him. And one had long hair. Kasab  (Ajmal Kasab, the lone terrorist captured after the attacks) has long hair."

"On 26/11 I noticed them again sitting at a table in Leopold. I told my friend Sarika 'See there is that same chikna (good looker) we saw the other day. I clicked his snap on my cell phone pretending I was taking Sarika's picture. But my cell phone got lost. They were sitting at that table (she points to the table next to the door facing the main road) and having beer. Bullshit they did not drink!"

"I mistook them for Israelis. I thought they were some tourists roaming around because Mumbai is a nice place and it is a good season now. One of them was very handsome. The other was bald, with dirty lips and dirty, up-down teeth."

For Anamika spotting these men earlier is not in the least surprising. Though a bit chilling. "How is it possible that just 10 people did this attack? How did they know that there was a lane to the Taj next to Leopold? And that one could enter there?"

She firmly feels it is logical that they did a survey of the area from a few days before and that was how she spotted them in and around Colaba.

Being a witness at Leopold that night did not give the 26/11 investigators sufficient reason to bring her to court. She was not called to depose in the Kasab trial. "Do you know that the police does not even know where I got injured?"

Anamika is grappling with a series of difficulties. She received her compensation of Rs 150,000 from the government promptly and is working out how she can start her own beauty salon so she can have something to do with her time.

But it is the health troubles that niggled. The bullets were all removed but she lives with a succession of splinters inside her. "I have a sinus problem. Sometimes when I cough there is blood. My wound often pains. Mentally I am not prepared."

We are sitting just two tables away from the critical spot where Anamika was sitting at on November 26 (where she often comes back and sits for a meal). She tells you that the terrorist duo, after drinking beer in Leopold, split up after leaving the cafe. One stationed himself at the door looking out into the lane going up to the Taj Mahal Palace and Tower hotel. The other stood at the door facing the neighborhood's main thoroughfare, Colaba Causeway, and mercilessly fired in.

"It took a few minutes for me to realize: He is a terrorist and Bombay is having a terrorist attack."

Shortly after that she was shot and succeeded in agonizingly dragging herself first to the police station, where she was apparently given no help, and later to the popular, Tony Indigo restaurant where she awaited an ambulance, all the while conscious.

"The manager there was trying to help. But he was also worried about protecting his restaurant and was busy turning off the lights, shutting down the restaurant and said an ambulance would come. At 11.30 (a bystander who helped the victims) Felix Ambrose came and like a baby carrying a child he picked me up and carried me to a taxi and took me to the hospital."

"The doctor there -- a Dr Gupta -- was very good. It was a big miracle. Janata (the people) is beautiful in Bombay. The janata always helps!"

Report No. 2 – Suspects outside India

 

http://www.ndtv.com/news/world/have_headleys_visa_papers_been_deliberately_misplaced.php?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+ndtv/TqgX+(NDTV+News+-+World)

 

How did terror suspect David Headley get a visa to India? What documents did he provide to establish his identity?



Uncovering this will be tough since it's now official that Headley's papers have gone missing from the Indian Consulate in
Chicago which granted Headley his visa. Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao has written to the Consulate asking for an explanation.


The missing papers are the latest in a mystery that tends to get deeper and darker everyday. At the heart of
India's concerns are suspicions that Headley was originally a CIA agent who switched sides and then planned the 26/11 attacks in Mumbai with the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT).


Headley, a
US national who left Pakistan with his mother as a teenager, was arrested in Chicago by the FBI in October.


NDTV has reported extensively on whether Headley started out working for the Americans. These reports have been brought up in Parliament, with CPM MP Brinda Karat asking why
America is not allowing India access to Headley. In a Chicago court, US prosecutors have charged Headley with plotting the 26/11 attacks as an undercover agent of the LeT.


Headley made multiple trips to
India before 26/11. He allegedly took photographs and videos of the four sites that would later come under siege by Pakistani terrorists.


Indian sources are unhappy that despite these charges, Indian officials have not been allowed to meet Headley.
America has also said that it's "too premature" to discuss Headley's possible extradition to India after his US trial is completed.

 

What's more worrying for India is that America's surveillance of Headley began in September last year, before the 26/11 attacks. Yet, no information on him was shared with India. America clearly had specific intelligence reports about the possibility of Mumbai hotels being targeted by terrorists - the Taj was mentioned in the warning passed onto India. But Headley did not figure in this alert.



Worse,
India was not told about Headley even when he visited the country in March this year, supposedly to plan a new round of terror attacks. Instead, America waited till after Headley's arrest to share intelligence on him.

Sources say
India suspects that Headley was enrolled as a spy after he was arrested for smuggling heroin in 1988. Did America then use him to infiltrate Pakistan's narcotics underworld? And did Headley use that as a cover to start working for Pakistani terrorists against India? Questions that now have India questioning whether America has shared everything it knows about a man named Daood Gilani who morphed into David Coleman Headley

 

 

Report No. 3 – Shocking denial from Ajmal Kasab

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Kasab-denies-all-charges/articleshow/5351020.cms

 

MUMBAI: In a dramatic twist to the 26/11 terror attacks case, main accused Mohammad Ajmal Kasab on Friday retracted from his earlier statement and claimed he was forcibly made to confess.

 

Denying all charges against him, Kasab said the statement was made under duress. 


Kasab today claimed before a special court that he was arrested on the night of November 25 and that he was falsely implicated in the 26/11 case. 

"On the night of November 25, I was roaming in Juhu. I had gone to see a movie when the local police arrested me," Kasab told the court. 

He also told the court that he was arranging for a house in Mumbai. 

"I had a passport and I'm not the first one to come from
Pakistan to Juhu area. I was arranging for a house here. The local police first arrested me and then handed me over to the crime branch," he said.

The Pakistani gunman also said in court today he had met US-based Lashkar-e-Taiba operative David Coleman Headley in jail some time after the attacks. 


The lone captured terrorist further said that on November 27, he was produced before a magistrate who then took his custody. 

"I have not given any confession before the magistrate and my statement has been falsely implicated," Kasab added.

 
"I was not present at VT," said Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab, referring to Victoria Terminus, the former name of Mumbai's main railway station where he is accused of opening fire on November 26. 

"I do not know what has happened. Witnesses have come and recognized me because my face looks similar to the terrorists," he told the judge at the special prison court in Mumbai where he is on trial. 

Kasab claimed that "The police have killed the main accused who resembles me and they told me that his name was Abu Ali." 

"I am his look alike. His height and face resembles mine," Kasab said. 

"That is why I was picked up. I have been framed," he added, speaking in Hindi. 

Kasab, who claimed that he was 20 years old, also denied that he was with Abu Ismail during the attack at CST (VT Station). 


He rejected the evidence of a witness, Bharat Tamore, that he was seen with 10 terrorists at
Badhwar Park when they got down from a dinghy there. 

Kasab said that "do baatein bolkar katham karna chaahtha hoon, aaj bhi mujhe bolne ka mauka nahin mila tho..." (I want to finish by saying two lines, if I don't get a chance to speak then...) 


The judge cut him short and told him that he had to answer questions the court put to him. 


Kasab disagreed with Tamore's version that he had seen the 10 terrorists at
Badhwar Park wearing saffron jackets and carrying bags on their back and also a handbag. 


Tamore had told the judge in his evidence that he saw two of the 10 terrorists closely and that Kasab was one of them. 


Several questions were put to Kasab based on the evidences given by witnesses. 

Asked about the dinghy, Kasab said that he did not know anything about the dingy. "I saw the dingy for the first time in the court," he said. 

The case of the prosecution is that the terrorists had reached Mumbai via the dingy. 



The lone surviving terrorist captured by the police during the Mumbai attacks was scheduled to give a statement today on evidence introduced against him by the prosecution for his alleged role in the 26/11 terror attacks. 


Kasab had made three confessions after his arrest. One was admission of guilt before police soon after his arrest, the other confession was made before a magistrate which is admissible as evidence and the third one was in the trial court when the accused accepted his guilt partially. 

Clearly Kasab has decided not to stick to any of these confessions when the court recorded his version today.

 

 

Summing up

 

Gathering the revelations of three reports rendered here, following points are extremely important to be noticed.

 

1.                  As Anamika stated that according to Report No. 1 above, she saw Ajmal before the Mumbai attacks. It means that if Ajmal was really the terrorist India suspects for so long, he was in Mumbai well before the attacks were carried out.

 

2.                  Ajmal Kasab’s fresh statement gave a serious shock to the whole Indian nation. Ajmal stated that he was in Mumbai on a valid Passport and was looking for a residence in Juhu area and was caught upon resemblance to the real terrorist also validates the claim of Anamika that she saw Ajmal well before the attacks happened. But if the second possibility is analyzed that Anamika may had seen the real terrorists few days before Mumbai attacks then the Indian claim that the assassins came from sea side  and started attacking the civilians becomes null and void.

 

3.                  Since last few months the case of American Citizen of Pakistan origin with the name of David Coleman Headly and his Canadian friend Tahwer Hussain Rana’s alleged involvement in Mumbai attacks was greatly hyped by the Indian media. The involvement of both these persons was taken as great achievement but unfortunately for Indians the situation turned out to extremely embarrassing when on raising the question of how these people were allowed visas to visit India frequently, the Indian Consulate in California could not provide the papers filed by Headly with his application for issuance of Visa. Till now there is no clue of the papers which were believed to be strong evidence that how Indian Government provided visa to him and on what reasons. India also raises the question of involvement of CIA in sending David Coleman Headly to India and the reports have also surfaced that Coleman worked as under cover double agent for CIA and Lashkar’s operatives.

 

Conclusion

 

In the light of above shocking revelations, the whole Drama of Mumbai attacks lands with the clear notion that the real culprits and planners are definitely got connections on the Indian soil and the chain of involvement runs from Indian Consulate in Chicago to the higher authorities in India and in American CIA. The motives were clear behind those attacks which were definitely carried out to defame Pakistan, blame ISI for cross border terrorism and build a strong reason for any Military action against Pakistan. By the Grace of Allah Almighty, the drama of Mumbai attacks came back to Indians as a flop movie with embarrassing climax.

 

In present situation India would definitely act as an injured wolf and would try any thing worse to hurt Pakistan through Military action. Government of Pakistan and Army in particular should formulate a coordinated action in view of the present developments. It is a real success of Pakistani media, Government and our national pride The Pakistan Army that Indian conspiracy has been completely unfolded and the world has a better opportunity to understand that how far India can go to badly stab Pakistan.

 

 

It should also be noticed that India is very reluctant to accept any local involvement in the Mumbai attacks and quickly rejects any question to allow international agencies to investigate the motives behind the attacks which took many innocent lives.  There is a strong understanding that without local involvement the attacks of such a magnitude were not possible. India is very puzzled because if any international agency would jump into these investigations, the local hands particularly behind the killing of brave Chief of Anti Terrorism Squad who is believed to be the prime target of the Mumbai attacks. The strings of Mumbai attacks definitely connect to the insiders like Col Purohit who is under arrest under the charges of involvement in Malegaon blasts.  It is needed that the recent developments should be capitalized by the Pakistani Government and the media to clear the dirt thrown on the face of our country by the Indians.

 

I would urge the media and the nation to highlight the present developments with full force because we cannot miss this opportunity to show to the world the real bad face of India.

Was Blackwater targeting Mushaf Airbase in Sargodha with the help of TTP?

 

Blackwater or what is now Xe Services LLC, has become a household name in Pakistan since last few months. The growing numbers of private mercenaries operating inside this country have raise many questions and created a headache for the Government to defend their stance and convince people about the actions of these forces.

 

I have already rendered several articles on this issue and every time a new shocking revelation makes me pen down this issue for the information for many who do not really know about the conspiracy behind allowing these private mercenaries to operate inside Pakistan.

 

The following report is about the Ex.’s training facility near Manila Philippines where this company has leased an abandoned US base to carryout the training mission. Most shocking to know that the people trained here for operations inside Iran and Afghanistan are recruited from India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Fiji and the Philippines. There are also strong reports that Afghan nationals are also sent to this notorious facility to provide complete training of so called anti terrorist operations. It is clearly understood with these reports that hiring man power from India and Bangladesh is purely done to be used against Pakistan because there is no action of private mercenaries is currently seen neither in India and nor in Bangladesh.

<<

The notorious US private security contractor, formerly known as Blackwater, uses a Philippines location to train mercenaries for Iraq and Afghanistan operations.

 
The company has been lent a former
US naval base, northwest of the Manila Bay, "where they can train up to one thousand private military contractors," Washington-based journalist Wayne Madsen told Russia Today on Friday. 


They train people from
India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Fiji and the Philippines for operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and other location where they operate, according to Madsen. 



The company was denied lease of the base three years ago and was reportedly operating there via a proxy. "We have also been told about a Backwater subsidiary called Steles Solutions," the investigative journalist added. 



The group's stated mission is to provide security for US diplomats and diplomatic facilities as part of the State Department's Worldwide Personal Protection Program. 


The company, which has changed its name to Xe Services, LLC, however, is notorious for misusing its State Department-issued gun license as an excuse for trigger-ready atrocities, namely the killing of 17 civilians in
Iraq in 2007. The Department, however, has refused to waive its permission to carry arms in Iraq. 


The company also continues to be extensively involved in
Afghanistan where 70,000 US-commissioned contractors almost doubly outnumber the US troops.

 

One of the licentiate's staff workers has recently filed a sworn testimony in a
US federal court against the security firm that may lead to new revelations and scandals. The employee has reportedly alleged that Blackwater's President, Eric Prince may have murdered or commissioned the murder of the telltales on the company.

 


The Pentagon is, meanwhile, accused of trusting avoidable deeds with the contractors. 

The private firms "are far removed from inspectors general, from the general Government Accountability Office and other people who look into their functions. Because they can claim, off course, that their information is proprietary…they are a private company," Madsen concluded.

 

"It is a way to get around a lot of the oversight regulations in the government. So we find them training border patrol agents, we find them training US military special forces and what not."

Pakistani intelligence agencies like ISI should also seriously see this report as evidence that the recruitment of Indians and Bangladeshis (those Bengalis who carry hatred for Pakistan) is completely against our national security and there is a strong reason to believe that those recruited are being used to punish the people of Pakistan repeatedly through suicide bombings and explosions carried out all over Pakistan. Till now, no real culprit is nabbed and abductions till now are just a formality to shut the voice of the media who are pressurizing the government to act. The allegations on Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan to be involved in recent blasts and attacks of Military targets throughout the country are quite valid but the way these attacks are carried out show the expertise and professionalism every time they carryout such attacks. It also suggests that some very high tech Institution is behind these terrorists training them to combat one of the most professional army of the world “The Pakistan Army”

 

 

Observing closely the wave of terrorism in this region since the last two years we can witness some very shocking similarities and can also understand about the way these terrorists are executing their operations with extreme professionalism.

 

The professionalism is visible from the operations blamed on Lashkar e Taiba when we see the footage Mumbai attacks on 26/11. It is ironic that the only suspect alive is Ajmal Kassab and most amazingly he was the only person whose videos and snaps were available for the media moments after attack started! Amazingly the lone survivor believed to be a Pakistani National who understands Marathi language and the whole case proceedings are carried out in the local Marathi language. This is a separate issue though, but when we see the perfection of the handful of terrorist kept Mumbai on a standstill proves that how scientifically they were trained on modern lines and principles of warfare. Here I want to point out what I observed and want that to be concentrated on that during any further investigations on the issue. It is to be noted that the terrorists involved in those attacks were carrying bags which they wore on their backs keeping arms, explosives and snacks too!!

 

The next attack was carried out on Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore when terrorists were also carrying bags on their backs that had arms and explosives to be used when required.

 

When we see similar terrorists acts afterwards we can also see same techniques used by the terrorists which proves that what they were trained, it came from a single institution which taught them how to carryout these attacks. More important is that the terrorists are taught modern communication tools to be used during their operation. The practice of carrying bags is an important similarity every time in their actions.

 

Most recently the valor security forces of Pakistan caught suspected American citizens from the city of Sargodha who were allegedly came to this country on a deadly mission. The matter is now serious and America is very keen to take their custody back immediately but our brave courts barred them to do that because their custody and thorough investigations bringing many shocking realities to unveil. There is another point to be noted that some bags were recovered from a Hotel in Karachi where these boys were staying. These bags are quite similar to those which were carried by the terrorists during Mumbai attacks and the attacks carried out against the Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore last year. I can see the presence of American citizens in Sargodha as a suspicious development because that the prime target of these suspected terrorists could have been the most important Airbase of Pakistan Air force (PAF). The Mushaf Airbase of Sargodha. PAF is definitely the pride of Pakistan and any serious blow to that base would have shocked the nation to a great extent. It would have been of similar intensity as it was attempted on GHQ where our valor forces foiled the attempt of terrorists and sacrificed their lives for the safety of our country.

 

Sargodha is not targeted for the first time. It was November 12007, when a suicide bomber struck the 50-seater bus carrying PAF officers to nearby Kirana Ammunition Depot killing 11 people including seven officers, with 28 injuries. The bombing took place on the Faisalabad Road, when an incoming motorcycle rammed into the bus triggering the blast instantly. All of the officers were new recruits posted to Mushaf Airbase for initial training. This was the last major attack before the state of emergency was imposed in 2007.

 

The law enforcing agencies and our Intelligence should seriously see the revelations and shocking news about recruitment of Indians and Bangladeshis for actions inside Pakistan. We all know that how much hatred Indians carry for us and many Bangladeshis who were brainwashed about Pakistan Army’s alleged atrocities and massacre of over a million Bengalis during 1971 civil war, are possibly being used to kill our people in Mosques, shopping areas, markets and many public places. The present wave of terrorism is believed to be American sponsored and every Pakistani believes that no Muslim can kill people in Mosques and religious places. Tehreek e Taliban is definitely involved in many terrorists actions but I strongly suspect that required manpower, technical support and high-tech training is provided by the private mercenaries who are definitely hurting our national security and our integrity.

 

I would want my nation to stand up and initiate huge protest because the presence of private mercenaries on our soil is only facilitating the terrorists but not the people of Pakistan. The weak and slave government of our country is unable to take any action against either Blackwater or DynCorp or any other private security contractors. Our Police force and security agencies are continuously confronting these mercenaries and trying to check their vehicles every time they found them carrying out illegal activities like taking snaps and videos of sensitive locations. Unfortunately no Government official or Minister stands to support our valor policemen and law enforcers, but these killers are released very easily upon intervention of US Embassy officials. Most shocking is that the vehicles carry fake registration number plate which is sheer violation of Pakistan’s Law.

 

It is encouraging that Pakistan’s Courts have taken strong notice of these actions and doing positive efforts to elevate the confidence of the nation on the Judiciary. Our Government officials must answer their agreement with America and the relaxations given to the US government to break our laws so easily to spit on our faces.

Irresponsible India and Al Qaeda's Nuclear Bomb

The deliberate ignorance of the growing vulnerability of Indian Nuclear Assets is showing the signs of extreme danger to the world’s peace.

 

India has been hiding the reality since long and tells the world that its Nuclear Assets including the Installations and the Arsenal are extremely safe and in secure hands. But repeated incidents of leakages, theft of Uranium and possible passing of important formulas, maps, diagrams and lot more to the Terrorist organizations are raising huge alarms for the world. It is hard that India can hide this reality in covers now.

 

Recent events and the statements by the Indian Government display extreme confusion and nervousness in their approach to handle the ugly situation. Since last few years repeated incidents of Uranium being taken away by suspected people raised questions about the internal security of the Nuclear Reactors and Laboratories in India. It is also observed that those working in the Nuclear Installations are not being properly scrutinized before recruitment and their inquiry is made purely as formality. More ironic is that recruitments in the Indian Nuclear Installations are allegedly carried out on Political pressures and recommendations by the Members of the Parliament. The recruitments are carried out by Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited which is a Public Sector Enterprise under the administrative control of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Government of India. The Company was registered as a Public Limited Company under the Companies Act, 1956 in September 1987 with the objective of operating the atomic power stations and implementing the atomic power projects for generation of electricity in pursuance of the schemes and programs of the Government of India under the Atomic Energy Act, 1962. Dr SK Jain Chairman NPCIL should be the right person to answer the recent wave of incidents related to the Indian Nuclear Assets. 


To assess the alarming situation we need to consider the following possibilities which are asking for World’s attention for strong action and emergency operation to secure any future theft of Uranium and the technology. The vulnerability of Indian Nuclear Assets shows that it is providing an easy opportunity of making Nuclear Bombs to terrorists which is so badly needed by the organizations like Al Qaeda and Lashkar-e-Taiba. All the focus is set on Pakistan regarding the possible taking over of Nuclear Arsenal by Muslim extremists (which is now quite impossible due to laudable success of Pakistan's Army which pushed extremists way back by giving great sacrifices) but the eyes of the biggest super power are closed from the ugly possibility that India is proving to be the most easiest and most unhindered source for obtaining not only the raw material but also the technology for making any nuclear explosive device which may not be as powerful but can give huge loss to the American people who are the prime target of Al Qaeda after being badly beaten in Afghanistan and Pakistan by US, NATO and Pakistani forces. It would be a great achievement for Al Qaeda if they could teach a lesson to Americans through dirty bombs or low intensity nuclear explosives which can rock any city of America and turn that into dust.

 

To understand the intensity of this threat we should look at the following chain of incidents happening repeatedly inside India which are alarming and serious in terms of the safety of Nuclear Technology and Assets.

 

 

 

Incidence - A

The West Khasi police arrested four persons for trying to sell a kilogram of uranium that was reportedly stolen from the Atomic Mineral Division (AMD). The packet had the seal of the AMD and Government of India. Those arrested include the headman of Lumkya village in Ri-Bhoi district, Samuel Nongmalieh. This is the second time this year that the police have arrested people trying to sell “yellow cake” in a packet with seals of the AMD and GoI.

 

Speaking to The Indian Express on Tuesday, West Khasi Hills district Superintendent of Police M Kharkhrang said the other three arrested have been identified as Jiington Starwell Kharjahrin from Nongstoin, Dispillar Lawphniaw from Wahkaji and Starwell Kurbah of Mairang. He said the police are looking for John Khongmin and had gone to his village on Sunday, but found him absconding.

 

Kharkhrang said Khongmin, who is the son of an employee working for the AMD, had supplied the packet. He said: “We will send a team to the AMD in Shillong to investigate how the packet was smuggled out.” The packet will be sent to the AMD to verify whether it contains radioactive uranium.

 

Incidence – B

By NDTV Correspondent  Tuesday  December 8, 2009, Mumbai

 

Three people have been arrested with five kilos of uranium in Navi Mumbai on the outskirts of Mumbai.

 

Officials at the Department of Atomic Energy say the Navi Mumbai police sent them a sample of the uranium for testing. It has reportedly been identified as "useless" or depleted uranium; it cannot be used for making explosives.

More details are awaited; the Navi Mumbai police is expected to hold a presser on the arrests this afternoon.

 

In the above two events besides many other reported time and again, the statement of the authorities seems childish when they claim that the Uranium they recovered was useless or depleted.

 

It is for the knowledge of the readers and Indian Government in particular that the technology of recycling of depleted Uranium is available. The Recycled Uranium can be used for generation of power to preparation of Bombs too!!

 

 

Source : http://www.acb.co.uk/Depleted+Uranium+Recycling

 

Active Collection Bureau (ACB), Noble House, Brickmakers Castle Road, Sittingbourne, Kent, ME10 3RL UK does the Safe Recycling of depleted Uranium which is an evidence that India cannot run away by simply declaring that the Uranium it caught was depleted and of no use.

 

With this shocking reality we can well understand that even the depleted Uranium can be dangerous if recycled. We should take strong consideration to the reality that with the extensive pressure on Al Qaeda and LeT in Pakistani western borders due to solid operation initiated by Pakistani Forces and by NATO inside Afghanistan, Al Qaeda definitely needed a safer heaven where the chances of US Intervention and influence could not be expected. India is an ideal place which ensures that no American bombing and any action to be taken against them if they establish any sort of sanctuary inside that huge country. Nobody can ignore that many extremist organizations are already operating inside India which are working on similar lines like Al Qaeda did at the time of its infancy. Now few organizations like SIMI (Students Islamic Movement of India) which was banned by the Government and Indian Mujahideen which are believed to be the Indian brand of LeT along with Naxals/Maoists are potential buyers of this stolen Uranium. The available technology of Recycling can definitely make the so called depleted Uranium more than diamond for these organizations.

 

More over the Recycling of Tritium Recycling is also carried out by ACB which is UK’s Company. This also reveals that the technology of recycling is also available for Tritium and it clears the confusion as to why it was leaked or stolen from Kaiga Nuclear Plant in India in November 2009.

 

http://www.indianexpress.com/news/radiation-leak-at-kaiga-nuke-plant-leave-employees-sick/547611/

 

It is quite clear with above visible realities that Indian security measures for its Nuclear installations can be compared with any textile mill or even more unimportant organization it terms of requirement of  the security measures.

 

In present situation when India is almost 45% captured by Naxals/Maoists and their Nuclear Installations are virtually kept hostage in the Areas of Naxals/Maoists control, then no body can save the world from the catastrophe and the trauma which the irresponsibility of the Indian Government can give.

 http://www.pakblogging.com/2009/11/haqeeqat-org-red-alert-for-indian-nuclear-arsenal/

The world should understand that only on few occasions the Indian agencies managed to recover the stolen Uranium but one can ask that how many times before this had happened and how many times this Uranium ended up in the hands of terrorists now believed to be aiming some bigger action against USA which President Obama also believes that Al Qaeda and its subsidiary organizations are still a huge threat to USA. However when we find USA ignoring the possible strong presence of Al Qaeda inside India and moreover their easy access to the Nuclear technology and the raw material in particular, this can give this terrorist organization a huge leap to become a menace  again for USA’s national security.

It is time that the world should take the notice of poor security arrangements of India for their Nuclear Installations. It is also to be probed how much quantity of Uranium has already been passed on to the terrorist organizations.

 

Indian Government should answer to the world that how it can save its Nuclear Plants and Research facilities from Al Qaeda and other terrorist organization?
