India’s Parsis use technology to keep religion alive

Posted by Unknown in Friday, October 2, 2009

In India, the last national census in 2001 recorded just under 70,000 Parsis – Zoroastrians who follow the prophet Zarathustra and worship one god, the creator of the universe, Ahura Mazda. —AFP Photo



MUMBAI: India’s Parsis, the modern-day descendants of migrants who fled persecution in Iran more than 1,000 years ago, are turning to new technology to keep their ancient Zoroastrian religion alive.

What is America up to? This is the question on everyone’s mind these days. A piece of ‘news’ made its way from email lists to the mainstream media last week. Blackwater, the dreaded security contractors who have wreaked havoc in Iraq, has a presence in Pakistan, and an NGO in Peshawar is a front for their mercenary operations in the Northern Areas and tribal belt.


However, this news is probably better classified as ‘gossip’ because Blackwater has been disbanded (renamed Xe but certainly not the same company it was two years ago) and a further check into the NGO in question, Creative Associates International, reveals them to be a legitimate organisation that’s been operating in 15 countries for the last 32 years.

Revisiting the Kargil conflict

Posted by Unknown in Monday, July 27, 2009

General Pervez Musharraf’s claim to an Indian TV channel last week that the Kargil war forced India to negotiate the Kashmir dispute with Pakistan would be laughable had he not been responsible for so much suffering on both sides, suffering that any military conflict brings with it. Gen Musharraf’s perspective makes no sense at all. —AFP/File phot



War and jingoism go together, and the Kargil conflict was no different. India on Sunday celebrated the 10th anniversary of the end of the lacerating Himalayan conflict, which it claims was a military victory. Some Indian journalists have raised questions about the conduct of the messy war and a brigadier lost his job for disagreeing with the higher-ups about the need to sacrifice more than 500 young soldiers and officers in the haste to evict the Pakistanis from their surreptitiously occupied strategic heights.

The unending ordeal of missing persons’ families

Posted by Unknown
















They disappear without a trace. Their mothers, wives, children and families exist in torturous limbo. They lay awaken wondering where their loved ones have gone and in what condition they are. Scary thoughts come to their minds evoking tears and a sharp jab to their heart. Their meaning of life altered forever.
