I salute one of the most decent men in Indian politics. Sir, why have you entered the vice-presidential contest when you know you won't win?

Mr Barnala, how do you react to the cries of human rights violation in Punjab. Do you think terrorism can be contained with 'soft, humane' tactics?

In light of the report that groups such as (World Sikh Youth something) is spearheading a campaign to revive militancy in Punjab with the help of ISI. Under such circumstances shouldn't the Indian gov't step up its intelligence operations in the US and Canada. Shouldn't our gov't take an active initiative to nip this in the bud.

Mr Barnala: But isn't the public being taken for a royal ride at their expense by the current government'S??????? How do you justify what has happened in the last 2 years?

A follow-up to your reply: The perception that Punjab police has is (rightly or wrongly) that the Punjab Gov't does not support IT! Under these circumstances how can we expect them to work their best. Certainly, you can't argue that this perception exists. Shouldn't the gov't take some proactive steps to eradicate this perception?

How do you define "Good relations". Is good relations only friendship between two governments. Is security of it's border's and people important? How can you have good relations when one nation fights a proxy war with the other. When one nation constantly executes terrorist acts against the other. India should FIRST get in position to deal with these issues before dreaming of "good relations" with it's neighbor. Comments?

Mr. Barnala I don't agree with your first priority. The first priority of any gov't should NOT be to "keep peace" as you said, but to PROTECT its people at all cost. If it's through peace, then fine, if not, then the gov't must do whatever it takes to ensure that the people and it's border's are well protected. Comments?
