Waiting for Hysteria
The most significant characteristic of Calcutta is that this city has a viewpoint about almost everything. Always regarded as the city of politics and culture, Calcutta is also known for its passion for sports, be it football or cricket. During the football world cup last year, people went around with Ronaldo haircuts, newborns were named after the soccer star's girlfriends and there was general hysteria all around. With the cricket cup, however, matters seem more subdued; may be, because, there are personal stakes in for every Indian who would like to see a repeat of 1983

Pokhran II: BJP's harmful legacy
       lbball1.gif (110 bytes)THE BJP government fell before it could celebrate the first anniversary of the Pokhran nuclear tests in a big way. Nevertheless, the BJP decided to observe May 11 as "National Resurgence Day" . The hallmarks of  Vajpayee coalition have been rising prices, growing unemployment, attacks on the minorities, authoritarian onslaughts on democracy, and unscrupulous and corrupt deals to remain in power. The BJP has to fall back, therefore, on the old RSS recipe of jingoistic nationalism.
