Air France Plane Disappears

Through the history of travel, distortions have always been encountered. An Air France plane flying from Rio de Janeiro to Paris carrying 228 people on board went through an electrical storm and then disappeared and no one knows where it or any of the passengers are right now. It shocks me that this is possible even in today’s day and age. Maybe turbulence was so strong and the pilots lost control and not able to recover. The plane was a relatively new model (Airbus A330-200) of one of the aviation sector’s most reliable and state-of-the-art aircrafts. According to the analysts, it would take “extremely violent weather” to bring it down. And that is only reason why everyone is stunned by its disappearance. Flying around in a storm is always nerve-wracking. Hard to imagine what the families are going through…Still sad on all fronts. Our sympathies and prayers go out to all the families and friends.

A Real Task for UPA

Not only Indians, this is a human tendency to forget the past incidents specially when they are not pleasant. So that somehow we did by forgetting 26/11 Mumbai attack. These days we were quiet busy in re-establishing the UPA Govt that helped us more to lighten our memories of 26/11. The applause by the international community for India's restraint is not enough for us. Frankly speaking, Pakistan has always been a greatest nuisance for India. This country has alienated itself from our country by persecuting and annoying us. India must not offer any humanitarian assistance to Pakistan as the latter is not very much enthusiastic and in fact it has never been, to accept our assistance. We are not US Govt which has a mother heart for Pakistan and instead of taking any stringent action, US even does not hesitate to shower Pak with an open-ended cheque even after 9/11 shock. We must fully utilize our sufficient experience since one day prior to our Independence that Pakistan's mindset about India cannot be ever changed. So it is better not to forget the abhorrent sight of Mumbai. We really don't have enough fortitude now to tolerate this miscreant.
