Mamata finds time to watch Moner Manush

KOLKATA: On a day the issue of Union home minister P Chidambaram's letter to chief minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee is churning the political scene in West Bengal, Trinamool chairperson Mamata Banerjee played it cool on Tuesday, finding time to go and see the Goutam Ghose-directed Moner Manush'.

The chief minister was busy during the day penning a suitable reply to Chidambaram's letter on harmad' camps in Jangalmahal while Pradesh Congress Committee president Manas Bhunia said that the situation in the state was ripe for central intervention under Article 355 of the Constitution. But Mamata managed time to leave for the Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute in south Kolkata to be present in the film show, though she addressed a closed-door meeting of party leaders at Trinamool Bhavan earlier in the day.

"I am going to see Moner Manush' because the film spans the two Bengals," Mamata said before leaving. Actor Prosenjit, who has played the lead role of Lalan Fakir, around whose life the story of the film is based, had, a few weeks ago, invited Mamata to see the film. In the past few years, Mamata has built a rapport with personalities of the film and the cultural world. Many noted film personalities have been present in informal programmes and get-togethers hosted by her.

RSS says Indian vested elements were trying to give terror a Hindu and saffron color, what does Obama say?

A US President whose party devastatingly lost the recent US election is enjoying his US trip. People in US are anxious to see their economy recover. From Indian point of view, it is great to have a good relation with US but the reality is much more serious and sinister.

India's biggest threat is the nexus between Pakistan and China and the possibilities of a joint war between India on one side and Pakistan and China on the other. That is why Indian PM Manmohan Singh plans to talk one-0n-0ne with US President Obama.

But the reality is much more serious. India faces hyperinflation from commodity price rise. India's biggest problem is Pakistani ISI that US military just could not control. India problem is Kashmir. India and Obama just does not talk about it.

President Obama is enjoying his India trip. But problems remain in Kashmir, in Pakistani ISI terror elements that American military cannot handle. In the mean time India's political leadership in charge are not easy on Hindutva. How does Obama address the real issues? Indian upper class looks for outsourcing dollars from America. American political leadership wants those dollars back by selling equipments to India. In the mean time Indian congress party, the current leadership in charge is busy trying to dampen the spirits of Hindutva - the ethos of Indian nationalism.

As Pakistanis realize that their best friend is not the terrorists and ISI rogue elements, Indian nationalists are realizing that there is little gain in fighting the Muslims across the western border.

The matter become even more complex when you realize that Bush and Obama like India because India can be used a as a controlling stick against Islamic terrorism and Chinese aggressive military agenda in Asia.

So where does India stand? That is a question that is unanswered in Obama visit. Indian na6tionalists watch America from a great distance as Manmohan Singh and Obama fire the balloons of friendship, trade, and even defense cooperation.

The little Muslim boy in Srinagar who sits in the dark corner under curfew sheds his tear. The Hindu Pundit whose wife was beaten to death by Kashmiri Islamists at the insistence of the Pakistani intelligence ISI in Kashmir has lost all his hopes of a fair trial and justice. The poor farmers in Indian farm who is about to commit suicide see the New Delhi ecstasy and Granger in 'shock and awe.'' The Indian jawan who left his family in Bihar to serve in the highest battle field of the world (Siachen)looks on. In the mean time the griddy outsourcing call center owners keep counting on Obama visit for easy money to continue coming in from America. American greedy fortune 500 companies and their executive count on Obama to bring them Indian market so they can hide their domestic business inefficiencies. The matter is very complicated. It is complicated because of just one reason - neither Obama or Manmohan Singh represent their real nation. American main stream has voiced their disapproval of Obama. Indian mainstream nationalists have been shut up for some time with influx foreign money. The matter is really complicated.

Cheap Military Prepaid Calling Cards For Government Employees

Almost everybody has to do a job to make a living. There are many debates among experts about who has the toughest job. Some experts believe that CEOs have tougher jobs since they have a lot of responsibility in managing their companies. Some believe that surgeons have the most difficult career since they closely deal with peoples lives. In truth, the men and women in the military have the most difficult jobs out there. Not only they have to dedicate their time and energy to serving our great nation, they also have to risk their lives for our nations cause.

Our men and women in the military perform their jobs without expecting anything back. But, our nations duty is to make sure they have everything they need to succeed in their positions. One of the issues that our military persons have to deal with is the cost of communication with their families. Many of our men and women in the uniform are assigned to overseas and will have to spend a considerable amount of time away from their friends and families. The issue for them is to find affordable ways to keep in touch with their families. Cellular phones are one way to go. However, many cell phone providers do not have affordable International plans. In addition, the commitment that these mobile phone providers require can be a turnoff for customers. Besides, not all cell phone providers offer good quality international service. All in all, cell phones are not always the best option when it comes to cheap International military calls and long distance calls.

The better option is cheap International military calling cards. These are not typically the cards sold in gas stations and convenience stores, but rather they are generally sold online. They are not country specific, but provide great rates no matter where you call, and wherever soldiers are deployed. These cards are designed to suit our military persons needs. International military calling card providers offer high quality calls to their card holders. In addition, the rates that these cards come with are much lower than those offered by most cell phone and regular phone service providers. In other words, International military calling cards are much more affordable for our men and women in the military. Besides, there is no long-term commitment needed with these cheap International military calling cards, and that makes them much more attractive to customers. Furthermore, many calling card service providers extend promotions and special discounts to the men and women in the uniform. That means by taking advantage of these discounts, the military personnel can make international and long distance calls to their friends and families for less money. While many might prefer the handiness of cellular phones, it is the low cost of cheap International military calling cards that appeals more to the military personnel.
