``My dad is a government employee...and like other government employees , his tax is deducted at source. Meaning , 40% of his salary is automatically deducted as tax by the income tax department. I dont recall ever suggesting otherwise. ``
Are you sure? No one pays 40% tax in India. The top tax bracket (10 lakh and above) is only 33% (30% + 10% surcharge on the 30%).

I do hope you were just kidding. Wouldn`t wish that kind of stupidity even on a stranger.

re: Bangalore sucks: big time
The news coming out of Bangalore is depressing. The infrastructure sucks. Infosys chief Narayana Murthy has been fighting a losing battle against politicians there to get the infrastructure in good shape. A lot of people have been speaking about this recently:
http://www.indianexpress.com/full_story.php?content_id=78475&headline=I~am~ashamed~since~I~belong~to~Bangalore
http://www.flonnet.com/fl2222/stories/20051104002504600.htm
(A study conducted by Solomon Benjamin, a specialist in urban economy and governance with Delphi Private Ltd., reveals a startling picture of lopsided infrastructural development. The data show that infrastructural investment in poor, working class slums in central, west and south Bangalore differed by a factor of 1:40 when compared to Whitefield, an area with a concentration of software companies and large residential layouts. With ``off site investments`` such as dedicated expressways and high-grade services included, the ratio is 1:60.)
http://www.indianexpress.com/full_story.php?content_id=80780
(It was almost as if the waters have washed away what politicians were using to hide in Bangalore. Set to host delegates from 18 countries for the showcase IT event ‘Bangalore IT.in’ opening on Wednesday, India’s infotech capital floundered in rain water.
For a city whose crumbling infrastructure regularly threatens to fall off the state government radar, the three-day spell of showers couldn’t have come at a worse time: just days after a bruising battle between Congress’s big brother H D Deve Gowda—the chief guest tomorrow—and Infosys chairman N R Narayana Murthy.)
If politicians have their way, Bangalore will soon see investors walk away to other better destinations (Madras, Pune etc). As and when that happens (a matter of time now), the property values that are artificially up will zoom down. Gujjubania`s posh house will be worth the toilet paper i use everyday. Perhaps a little more but i think Gujjubania gets the drift.

1. I never claimed to own a house in my name. Just a plot of land. You are welcome to set up a hut there and stay if you want to.
2. My dad is a government employee...and like other government employees , his tax is deducted at source. Meaning , 40% of his salary is automatically deducted as tax by the income tax department. I dont recall ever suggesting otherwise.

(....the biggest threat to the people of India , their freedom and aspirations and ultimately their life comes from you leftists....)
The biggest threat is from people like your dad who is a tax evader. Not even 5% of Indians pay their taxes. Your dad is one of them. That is why India is poor. Not because of some leftists.

Re: #416 by Harimau
Of course that would be the right thing to do, but it will never happen.
I wonder what Pakis think of the Haj subsidy. They probably laugh their heads off. They have known for hundreds of years the patient cowlike nature of the average Hindu, and the pseudo-idealist types like Aha_snark.
I would like to see Hindus try to get a government subsidy to visit Mount Kailash.
These fake pseudo-intellectuals would have a fit.

Aha_Snark,
We have tried for 55 years (after the Republic of India was proclaimed) to mollycoddle Muslims. The net result is we have bombs in New Delhi the day before Deepavali. How about a few bombs in Jumma Masjid on Eid? (Pakistanis probably would be doing it in Shia mosques and imambaras.)
How about trying my suggestion for the next 500 years? Ban the Haj pilgrimage, saving tons of money that is being spent on Saudia Airlines. Save the Rs. 150 crore Haj subsidy. If any Muslim so much as says ``Boo``, lock him up for 30 years.
There are these terahertz frequency scanning machines. They see through clothes and everything. So, a pants-drop-down test to check for Muslimness is not necessary most of the time.
No voting rights for Muslims in India. If any Christian wants both the right to convert and reservations, nail him to the cross in a public place so that the Christians will learn to shut up.
Free-fire zone is a valid response in times of war. When the jihadis declare war on India, they should be prepared for the response. After all, all of India is Dar-ul-Harb according to Muslims. Let us show them what a true war zone looks like.
It is weak-kneed hand-wringing Hindus like you who are the bane of India. Did the Muslims try a bomb in Ahmedabad, Gujarat? No, because they know exactly what they will get in return.

Re: # 416
I am suprised by the debate ... which is pretty amussing on the whole, but i am surprised that no one even mentioned a certain train accident in AP. What has that do with the bombing ?.. nothing but one bombing and all the TV channels, all discussion forums , everyone is talking and even receiving mails on terrorism and no thoughts on 123 who die in a train accident which should have been avoided . Even our Pakistani bros slipped a huge opportunity on this one.....God given calamities are one-thing and man-made are another why not discuss all man-made ones together ?

[A paper that your late father wrote? Oh so that’s the valuable contribution you made in the fight for the repeal of Hudood Ordinance in Pakistan? I don’t see anything here that YOU “personally” did. Please note the operating word here.
My dad never took a rupee as dowry. Is that my contribution to the fight against the evil?
Given the “monumental” sacrifices that you and other expatriate Pakis have made, is it any wonder that the Hudood Ordinance is nowhere close to being repealed?]
This post has a very valuable point. It`s not funny. It is ironic. This interaction highlights the difference between the thought process of an Indian and a Pakistani.

Nope.
In Harimau`s post you cited, he did not say anything about killing off Kashmiris.
