Also the idea of Hindu consolidation was proposed as necessary , by presenting organised religions and their followers as monolithic or homogeneous in nature . The natural human element which creates differences and diversity was kept out

[Preetha Salil @Preethdjangs]

Wonder for how long the Hindu consolidation ( which looks theoretically neat ) will last, because even in the past there were sects and factions. This call for Hindu unity was made partly on the assumption that there is greater unity among minority religious groups . But even in a tiny state like Kerala one gets to see a great variety of sects in the minority religions. There is no Islamic unity in West Asia, no Christian unity between Ukraine and Russia or between even Canada and the US . Mark Carney has said trade negotiations with the US has turned ‘ nasty’ after Mr Trump insulted the US’s neighbour and threatened to raise tariffs.

In the case of ethanol, wet weather can create problems for vehicles, as ethanol has a fondness for moisture; but wet weather or water is necessary to produce the feedstock necessary for making ethanol. The process of producing ethanol from agricultural waste is more complex.

The ideal solution is for people to self regulate vehicle use. This will reduce congestion and pollution . An automobile expert said the engine and materials can be re engineered to make them E20 compatible- necessitated by the properties of Ethanol , which is a good enthusiastic solvent with a fondness for moisture . So wet weather can create problems but wet weather is also necessary to produce the feedstock for making ethanol

After nearly a decade of cautious spending, India, Inc. appears to be entering a new growth phase . Unlike the previous investment boom, many large companies are entering expansion phases with lower debt levels, stronger cash flows, and improved credit profiles.

For the last two years, selections were done without trials based on 5 to 7 parameters decided by coaches. Following backlash from players and interventions by the Sports Authority the Boxing Federation conducted neutral trials in public view with neutral judges.

@AsimAli6 Plus both the Allahabad HC declaring her election null and void and her electoral defeat following emergency show that she was held to account and her actions questioned.

[Preetha Salil @Preethdjangs]

Leaders come in different forms , so comparisons are uncalled for .
But in the case of Mrs Gandhi, there is also the factor of her being a successful woman leader upsetting the grandees of the age who were extremely strict n stern in their assessment of her conduct. The media too was silenced only during the emergency. External shocks also affected the economy and the country had not yet achieved the level of growth necessary to weather the crisis.
Curious that the emergency episode is being used to obfuscate her achievements. Who said you need foreign invaders to erase the temple of a leader’s legacy . Rivals are equally good at it

Islamophobes will be disappointed to discover that Allah just means 'God' in Arabic. The word is used both Muslims and by Arab Christians, who were a majority in the Arabic-speaking world as late as the 12th century. Insh'allah = God Willing

[Preetha Salil @Preethdjangs]

Some important differences Sir
First this is a PM whose electoral win was annulled for a very minor procedural lapse.

The opposition at that time was calling for a nation wide agitation and it was very disruptive .

Both Mrs Gandhi’s disqualification and her electoral defeat later , point to the fact that she was questioned and called to account.
