correct me If I am wrong,..british as well as princely ruled states had the option to join either pakistan or india or remain free..Kashmir had opted for total freedom from both pakistan and India,.Pakistan sent proxy to capture kashmir and then Hari SIngh requested Nehru to save kashmir from pakistani aggression,.Nehru insisted that first he will have to sign accession treaty with India and thats how kashmir merged with India,..Later India agreed to plebiscite under certain conditions of UN and those conditions were never fulfilled,..Dr Roy was very selective in her response,..I dont think thats fair,..

I don't like to listen to bad stuff about India but when it comes from a sensitive soul like Arundhati Roy, who not only is an incisive thinker but also a basic grass-root researcher and activist, you just have to sit up and take notice. If you listen carefully, her love for the poor of the country shines through and her compassion for the downtrodden and is unmistakeable. If the government is serious about doing something for the poorest and the underprivileged in India they must have her as the advisor and act on her advise; but the governments of the day are sold to the corporates and have no interest in the uplifting the poor. They value corporate profit above human life especially tribal life. That's why Arundhati is an enemy.

+satindra ahluwalia Or maybe Arundhati Roy is an enemy because she is an apologist for Naxalite terrorists and does not feel compelled to condemn their murderous acts. Because after all, their poor and are fighting against the corporations. So it's ok for them to kill innocent people. What Roy is doing is no different from what other yellow journalists have done in the past, whether it was covering the Bolsheviks in 20th century Russia or the Viet Cong in Southeast Asia. The argument that violence based on collectivist ideology is a must simply does not ring true. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Again your making up bullshit or you believe in totally false history. The Caste System or the Varnas exist in India for more than 1000years now. It has been clearly mentioned by Manu and further in the Rig Vedas. The word Varna in Sanskrit itself points to color. Hences the Varnas are based on Color. the roles and duties of castes defined as per the Varnas. A system now seen inside hindu, muslim and even sikh communities. Caste exists in very aspect of Indian life. Caste stands to segregate people and sexes and professions - making millions of Indians as citizens unequal forever.

Ms. Roy while critical of the Iraq war, makes a comparison of the 130K troops deployed in Iraq to India's 700K troops in Kashmir (a semi-autonomous province of India) and calls it an "occupation". Let me guess, Ms.Roy's opposition to the Iraq war possibly could be attributed to the fact that the REAL job of the 130K US troops in Iraq was to topple Saddam, "liberate" all areas of OIL production & provide security to corporate oil and construction operations (think Halliburton et al) and local pro US-Govt. The job of the US troops was NOT removal of WMDs or liberation of the civilians, nor peace and stability. A guerrilla war where the ruthless enemy follows no rules and has no accountability & where every building in an urban area is a potential enemy outpost needs WAY more than 130K troops to win. The proof for this argument is clearly evident in the fact that even after 15 years and deaths of more than 150000 civilians there is still no peace or stability in Iraq, nor can we see any end in site for the war. Here is the bunker-buster against Ms.Roy's meaningless argument that went unchallenged by the "fake-news" journalists interviewing her. While the US officially had about 130K troops on the ground, there were at least an additional 200K or more "private contractors". These are ex-army types working (read fighting) for the US defense contractor firms on behalf of the US govt. I am not even talking about the additional 100K or so administrative staff that were part of the US "occupation" force at its peak. This is the kind of brainless arguments leftists make and they are surprised when others don't take them seriously.
