Harishkumar Sangliana, Bangalore

The so called secular Party BJP utilized Dr.H.T.Sangliana’s name for their party’s victory in 2004 General Election, but today they don’t need his service. There was and there is no hero in the history of BJP who could defeat Congress Veteran Mr C K Jaffer Sharrief…

But the Supercop did it by joining the saffron party. Once the Congress veteran had told “Sangliana is the right person, in the wrong party”. It has come true today. The protests which took place in his absence in the city, is all masterminded by the persons who are not fit enough even to clean his shoes - Sadananda Gowda, Prahalad Venkatesh joshi, G.M.Siddeshwar, Ananthkumar hedge.

The people of our state would not forget this, they will teach these people a good lesson. The main key person who is behind the scene, doesn’t have enough guts to stand before Dr.Sangliana, so everything is commanded by him to these people, who mishandled him in the Parliament house. The Supercop fears only to GOD, BEWARE OF HIM.. LONG LIVE OUR KING DR.H.T.SANGLIANA TO SERVE OUR NATION.

Well Mr. Pai. From all this it appears that you are agreeing with the Fact the BJP is a communal party huh?? where as your PM in waiting( million DOllar ?????) is preaching that its a Secular one.... maybe the BJP likes changing colors like a chameleon huh???? "Tri color" before elections and "SAFFRON" after elections???? Sangliana is a man of dignity and a true mass leader who believes in transperency he thinks about the welfare of his country not about a few misled people in BJP who want to hog the lime light. I do feel bad about Mr. Sangliana because he has been a pawn in the hands of the BJP who had USED him when they wanted him the most. He is a man of great stature and integrity..unlike the power hungry "PM-in-Waiting"(???????)

Dear Ashwin Pai, Your leaders like L.K. Advani, and others are repeatedly telling that India will remain secular and you being supporter of BJP is not secular. It means you are defying the party. Remained losing of deposit money, which elections only will decide and your astrology is useless.

Voting against the whip is equalent to voting against a MPs conscience/nation. Whip system in the parliament resembles 'Dictatorship in Democracy' This system need to be abolished in our parliamentary system. If whip system prevails then why there should be a compulsion that all MPs to present in parliament for voting? Party leader can just give the figure of number of members in respective party, that should serve the purpose.

Mr. Srinivas, Thank you for clearly noting some excerpts of the nuke DEAL. I did not bother to write in detail as many would not understand the intricacies. Yes , I have read some excerpts,whatever is available for public, and belive me it is one sided and "damning" on India. The more fine damninig deatils are still secretive and perhaps convincing the public to oppose the deal. The opposing political parties helm perhaps know the details.

Yes, "Singh is king under Bush's(America's) wing". Our PM has basically sold the soverignity of India. What next, indirectly forcing India to sign CTBT deal? Open its military bases? Choke India's progress? Or hold India at ransom by USA? I think people of india educated and uneducated have been kept in the dark by the PM.

Now bush is trying to push the deal through US Congress leaving aside everything else. Why? The US "got India", $ 100 billion US in the first year alone,just like they got Saddam and "hold on the oil supply" in the so called rat hole. We got him was US's announcement. Now, US got India, and will be hanged just like they did to Saddam. Everything else only time will tell and ignorent Indian's eyes opened.

Mr.Srinivas, This is a known fact to All Indians, when BUSH visited INDIA in 2005. Being known only, India is signing this "123 TREATY". That's why "THE POWER GENERATED BY THESE NUCLEAR PLANTS WILL BE USED FOR CIVILIAN PURPOSE ONLY and not for producing BOMBS". Remember, INDIA IS NOT SIGNING "CTBT" and India's Sovereignty remains as it is.

Dont' worry. Naturally, US will put forth these conditions on the fear that, INDIA may use this nuclear reactors for "PRODUCING NUCLEAR ATOM BOMBS". Therefore our few Plants will be under the scanner of "IAEA".

US has already told that, "INDIA BEING A FAITHFUL NATION, WE ARE SUPPLYING THIS NUCLEAR DEVICES". When PAKISTAN putforth same demand to US to supply nuclear, they utterly rejected their plea, fearing that, PAKISTAN DEFINITELY WILL HANDOVER THIS IN TERRORISTS HANDS (You know pakistan scientist's "A Q KHAN'S STORY" providing the Formula to Terrorists). Why do we need Atom Bombs,now, when world is begging for peace.

As Mr.Sangliana said "Power is the lever to develop a nation" and he voted for it. He is right. At present, we want Power or Energy to solve our various key issues like unemployment, rising inflation, etc etc. You know, our Industires are suffering due to lack of continuous supply of Power, causing huge loss to the Nation. Ours is not a Gulf nation where plenty of Oil Deposit is there to generate power.

Our great scientist Ex-President of Inida (DR. ABDUL KALAM) also in favour of the deal. Let us fulfil his dream "INDIA WILL BE SUPERPOWER BY 2020".

The opposition parties were opposing the deal so that the deal can be postponed and when BJP or third front Govt.is formed, the deal could be signed so as to get the credit. Their dream was shattered because of people like Sangliana. Mr.Sangliana, whoever says anything, you have the peace of mind by not going against your heart's voice. That is important.

After reading the news about breaking board and window panes and doing ugly things in the office of the karnataka B.J.P.M.P Mr. Sangliana, I felt why only B.J.P.people taking law in their own hands and take exreme steps like this.I am not finding other parties going to this extent. I also observed recently karnataka MLAs like Mr Asnotikar,a film actor Mr Jaggesh and Janatha Dal MLAs joined B.J.P as ministers.People have expressed their feelings in a democrative way and not taking law in their own hands. B.J.P picked up Mr Sangliana and given ticket considering his honesty and official track reccords and now all of a sudden he became "Desh drohi".Do not worry Mr Sanliana,people will remember you.You have acted according to your conscience.People have no thinking power.God only save this country.

Elected M.P on a BJP ticket, he should have obeyed the Whip issued by the party. Being a disciplined IGP, this indiscipline does not go well to his stature. He should have fought from inside the party and tried his best to cleanse it rather than leaving the same. He could have done more good being in the party than outside. What motivated him to vote 'Aye' at this juncture is rather anyone's guess.

I have read most of the comments posted here. And some people even suggesting the sms polls as the basis of their support to the deal. The fact is most of the people do not know what the deal is really about. Just few excerpts I am presenting here. I would have supported the deal if it is going to do good for the country. I personally feel its going to do more harm than good. whatever clause provided from the 123 agreement and hyde act which can harm our country i am providing here. And i allow it for the conscience of the fellow Indians. The things every Patriotic Indian citizen should know......... Nuclear Agreement between India - USA :MUST READ BY EVERY INDIAN There are lot of talks about 1 2 3 Agreement between India & USA and it almost led to the topple of Central Government.

In this mail I am trying to explain the commercial & technical aspects relating to this Agreement which I have read and sharing with you. What is 123 Agreement? This is called 123 Agreement because this comes under USA's Atomic Power Act Section 123. Let's see how India's (Indians?) Sovereignty & Independence are pledged...

(1) After this Agreement USA will supply all fuel, machinery / equipment & technology to India for producing Nuclear Power.

(2) All these days from about 22 Nuclear Power Plants, India is producing power as well as Atom. It's a high security / secret that from where which is produced, how much is produced, where it is supplied, what research is being done with that, etc. to anybody. But if we sign this Agreement, we have to disclose these secrets and also agree to 14 of our Nuclear Power Plants to be under the scanner of International Atomic Power Organization.

(3) The fuel utilised to produce Atomic Power can be recycled for reuse and this plant will be under direct supervision of IAPO.

If India does nuclear test, this agreement gets canceled. But,

(1) USA will take back all the machinery / equipments / technology supplied to India thus far.

(2) Those 14 plants will continue to be under scanner irrespective of the status of the agreement. On the other hand, if any of the commitments given by USA is breached by them, then there is no clause for canceling this agreement. The agreement is apparently like this... USA can either hug India or slap India. India will not ask why are we hugged or why are we slapped. On the other hand, India cannot hug or slap USA for breach of agreement. This is only capsule so that easy to read and digest.

Mr. Sangliana: Indian Supreme Court has time and again upheld laws enacted by different state Govts (first enacted by Congress Govts of Central India, Orissa in mid 1960s). As an IPS officer, we expect you NOT to play politics, but respect rule of law and court's order.

Religious conversion is not a issue in India alone- its banned, severely restricted in many countries like Sri Lanka, Thailand, Mayammar, Vietnam, Combodia..........and many SE Asian countries because of organized christian groups who are using religious freedom to push their political agenda, not religion. Whether its father of the nation, or any nationalist leader - all opposed religious conversion.

Hats off to Sanliana for showing courage in defying his party’s whip and doing what his conscious felt in the interest of the nation. BJP, which tested nuclear bomb in 1997, is now opposing the deal with the US. Would they have opposed it if there were ruling the country? Their one and the only motto (and dream) is to pull down the government in order to have a new election and that they could rule the country. How power thirsty guys they are! It is heartening to note that some people like Sangliana, irrespective of their party, showed their party leaders and the general public alike that they are not against the progress of the country.

A recent survey conducted by a news organization showed that an overwhelming 86% of the general public was supporting the nuclear deal and this public does not belong to Congress party alone but also to BJP, Left and other parties. When this is the case, how can those MPs, who were elected by the public, go against the opinion of the people elected by them? BJP or Left parties cannot sack those MPs who went against their party’s diktum it is only the people who can show these "rebelled" MPs a door during the next election.

We elect these politicians to serve the nation but if they serve themselves, then our purpose of sending these clowns to the Parliament would not serve.

Dear Mr. Sangliana, you have done a great job by voting for the UPA’s trust motion, thereby supporting the nuclear deal. May be most of our MPs have no idea about the nuclear deal and hence they are opposing it. You, as a responsible public representative, have stood for the betterment of this country, despite being a BJP MP.

These third-rate leaders of BJP (according to you) can do nothing for the sake of this country and your decision to leave the party for the sake of the country is really heart-touching. We have a great Prime Minister like Dr. Manmohan Singh who had launched India on the path of economic reforms in 1991 as the Finance Minister and again our current Finance Minister Mr. P. Chidambarm is well known for his critical analysis on economical matters.

Indian need such great politicians with high qualification. You are the one to join this berth, who has a great track record of handling Bangalore Police as the Police Commissioner and you can serve this country with more dedication by joining the current UPA government, which is corrupt-less at present.

Well said Mr Sangliana. It is as you say not the party but the people running it who are the problem. You did the right thing by voting for the government. It was the BJP who first initiated the nuclear treaty with the US. Had they returned to power, it would have been signed a long time ago without fuss. It is just that they do not want to give credit to the present government for taking it to its end.

The muck that they are trying to hit you with will not stick, as you have proven your honesty and integrity in your long career as a police officer. Maybe our country does not deserve leaders like you, and it is our fate to be ruled by crooks and criminals.
