GT,

I agree to most of what u said but what I meant when I said that Commies cant play electoral politics is that they dont know how to grow.

The theory behind the split is true but I never saw them growing outside WB, Tripura and Kerala and CPI was derecognised as a national party. CPM is one its way to de-recognition.

Had they know to play electoral politics they'd have been reinventing from time to time and gaining in strength.

Thank you dear YLH for reviving our memories.

Btw, are not the Jats of Gujrat, Ch. Shujaat, Parvez (There another Parvez has come up but he is Keyani),etc., playing the role of Sir Chhotu Ram today?

Alas, Sir Sikandar Hayat died at a crucial moment in history. Had he lived he and Chhotu would not have allowed Punjab to be partitioned with the resultant internecine carnage of Punjabies.

Re: # 110

I am afraid you've not understood what I've written. Your responses to points 1,2,3,4,5 are plain nonsensical. Your response to 6 is just plain funny.

Your response to point 7 shows me that you have no comprehension of the English language. A federation consists of a Unitary center. A unitary center is different from a unitary state.
For example India is not a Unitary state but has a unitary center called New Delhi.

Your response to point 8 is your prejudice. As for Congress... its actions are self evident.


Thanks for the reference. Grateful.

Re: # 115

Yes. Shujaat Hussain was playing Chotu Ram. That makes PML-Q the Unionist Party.

Thankfuly they have been defeated.
