Terrorism will stay as long as there are states sponsoring it: Gen Rawat
 Chief of Defence Staff Gen Bipin Rawat on Thursday pitched for strong global action against states sponsoring terrorism, saying there is a need to take the bull by its horns and strike at the root cause.

In an address at the Raisina Dialogue, Gen Rawat also said there is a need to take a hardline approach in dealing with terrorism, the way the United States went after terror groups after the 9/11 terror attacks.
"As long as there are states which sponsor terrorism, we will have to live with the menace. We need to take the bull by its horns and strike at the root cause," he said in an oblique reference to Pakistan.

On containing radicalization, the Chief of Defence Staff said it can be checked if right persons are targeted, adding there was a need to confront the "ideology of radicalisation".
Asked whether he supports negotiations with the Taliban, he said peace talks should be initiated with everybody provided they give up the "weapon of terrorism".

hiiii,  how  good to  comparison with others esp Virat and sachin.  Virat has showed outstanding performance in  couple of years. I could not stop pondering, we have forgotten Sachin T.  his presence and performance & dignified behavior in fields and to off cuff.  A new Leader has born  in India cricket Virat has shadowed others peers. youths are fascinated and thrilled to see him to show bat antiquates and dominating  the opponents. Sachin must have proud of him.....a successor to (him)bound to the break all records in the future. Not for long we believed that no one can compare with sachin. However, we are sure Kohli  getting fast and furious with his bats. Kudos to Virat, and even many2 salute to a legend of cricket inspiration to otheres Regards, GKRai

Several Congress leaders, including Milind Deora and Sanjay Nirupam, had hit out at Sanjay Raut for "distorting the legacy" and carrying out a "false campaign" against the former prime minister Indira Gandhi. A day after he claimed Indira Gandhi used to visit Mumbai underworld don Karim Lala, Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut Thursday withdrew his statement. Several Congress leaders, including Milind Deora and Sanjay Nirupam, had hit out at Raut for “distorting the legacy” and carrying out a “false campaign” against the former prime minister. During a function Wednesday, when Raut was asked about his days as a crime reporter in Mumbai, he said: “(Underworld don) Haji Mastan used to visit Mantralaya and was treated as an honoured guest.

India vs Australia India Predicted XI for 2nd ODI - With series on the line, Virat Kohli set to make big changes in Rajkot. The top-order fired but not the in the expected dominant manner. Virat Kohli dropping down to No.4 meant there was no momentum in his innings, the middle-order crumbled under pressure.  The seamers were wayward with the new ball, the spinners struggled against a fire-breathing David Warner and Aaron Finch because of dew – Nothing went right for India in Mumbai a couple of days ago.  The result was a devastating 10-wicket loss after 15 years in ODIs. Captain Virat Kohli mentioned that there was no need to press the panic button just because of one bad day but deep down even he knew a few changes (if not many) are needed to stretch the three-match series to the decider.  The pressure – for the first time in this magnitude – will be on the hosts when they take on a quality Australian side in the 2nd ODI at the Rajkot on Friday. With the s...
