India's Eastern Question | The decision to create (or re-create) Telengana carved out of Andhra Pradesh has already stirred statehood movements all over the country. If all these campaigns are rewarded with new states, India may end up with upto 50 rather than 29 states. But if the statehood demands are not conceded, the country may face various degrees of agitation and violence. Nowhere is the threat more ominous than in the country’s East and North-east, a region already home to dozens of ethnic insurgencies , some separatist, others seeking separate states or Union Territories. | 23-Aug-2014 |

INDIA KEY TO ASIAN BALANCE | Geo-strategist Parag Khanna , whose 'Second World' is a hit, has predicted India will never be a Super Power like China or US .

CPI-M needs new leadership to recover po | The CPI-M has decided to hold its 2015 party congress in Kolkata instead of Agartala, capital of the only state now ruled by the party. Tripura is far off, more difficult and expensive to reach, reasoned the party leaders while picking Kolkata. While the 1,000-odd delegates would miss out on a chance to see for themselves the workings of the party in a state where it has held on for years, the Kolkata congress may be seen as an opportunity to boost the morale of activists in West Bengal, where not a day passes without reports of desertion from the Marxist ranks. | 04-Aug-2014 |

India’s pride Dipa Karmakar : Wil | Had it been any other State Govt of India- by this time they would have declared a cash prize of Rs 25 Lakhs to 1 crore for bringing the rare honour of becoming the first Indian woman gymnast to clinch a Bronze Medal in Commonwealth Games.
