The US has passed a resolution recognizing Diwali officially in theUS. It got an overpowering 358 votes for resolution and there is not even a single vote against the resolution. This is really proud moment for India and the Indians who live in the US. An official said that this festival is celebrated by Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists and Jains in the US.
But I am sure that if the US representatives who voted for the resolution come to know that an Indian state, Kerala, does not celebrate Diwali they will be shocked. (People from other states who stay in kerala will celebrate diwali)
I really wonder why keralaite Hindus or Sikhs or Buddhists or Jains are not celebrating Diwali When all over the world diwali is celebrated by these religious people.

How LTTE forgot Ahimsa?
How LTTE forgot to take ahimsa or non-violence route to get freedom from Sri Lanka instead of violence. It is known to everyone all over the world that no one can succeed through violence for a good cause.
If LTTE’s real intention is to fight for Tamilian rights and to get separate Tamil Nation then they should consider ahimsa to achieve their cause.
How they forgot that Mahatma Gandhi led India to freedom only through Non-Violence.
World leaders like Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, followed Gandhi and succeeded in achieving their cause through non-violence. I still wonder why they are not learning lessons from these great leaders.
Violence begets Violence. Only Non-Violence can bring peace. LTTE’s should realize that they cannot achieve their objective of separate Tamil Nation though violence. Non-Violence is the ultimate weapon to fight for rights. If LTTE embrace non-violence, surely Tamil Nation will be created out of Sri Lanka peacefully.

Left got it right on N-deal?
Finally it seems that Left got it right. Every indication now suggests that they are going to win the war on N-deal. By threatening UPA Govt to withdraw support, it stopped cong from going further in the N-deal. Both Manmohan Singh and Sonia now saying that there is a life beyond N-deal for Govt.
Now it is certain there is no chance of snap polls in 2008 as a result of N-deal.
But is there a chance of going ahead with N-deal if left agrees on October 22nd meeting?. But it seems to be almost improbable.
Now the cong realized what is important to run the coalition Govt is Synergy and not Nuclear energy.
