					<description><![CDATA[My mother told me stories that her grandmother used to tell her ,that britisher whenever they get to know about a beautiful woman including minors is there in the village they used to kidnap her . My mother&#039;s grandmother was told by her parents not to go outside whenever britisher came for patrolling (kidnapping).
When I told my mother that they are now telling the world that they were good for natives and they were the one who civilized us, she was surprised and angry. Truly britishers have done the greatest crime of history .]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[So well researched. So much gold taken away and we don&#039;t even know about it. About reparations, seeing their economic situation now, don&#039;t think they can ever compensate us. Instead they managed to divide our country and keep us engaged with hostile neighbours. We are still an uneducated society in the real sense. We hardly know how to deal with our immediate  problems leave alone getting our  governments to take bold decisions. Hindus by nature are forgiving, wonder if we should let this trait be lost]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Maria ji - great article.
One question that I find difficult to answer (maybe you can shed some light on it): if and when reparations are indeed paid, will they stay with the Indian government or go to individuals and families.  And if the latter, how do we identify them as rightful recipients?
By the way, I am by no means suggesting that I am against reparations for want of a mechanism to have the money’s reach those who deserve them.]]></description>

Thanks a lot for your valuable comment. Your 1. point analyses the situation very well. The powers that be are very powerful with unlimited money and it seems they want to degrade humanity. I am not sure if it should be called Anglo sphere. Fully agree with your last 3 points.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Mariaji,

Very Very Informative piece. The reason why Indian leadership are not keen to fight for repatriation. My views (You Know just repeating to make a point)

1. Socialism, Marxism, Abrahamic Thought is all pervasive in India . In movies , academics, school curriculum, Advertisements, TV serials, TV Debates, etc have fully captured the minds of young and old, Leadership and Polity such that they will Crawl in front of the Anglo sphere if just asked to bend

2.Secondly due to the above there is a powerful secondary effect of victim hood and caste tensions which has such an effect on policy leading to more reservations. Due to this most institutions in India are very very weak and inefficient and cannot fight for this cause

3. India still is not a major player in world Geo-politics of hard power. Also interestingly most Indian Politicians and Bureaucrats have their children and wards safely in good positions in the west and their full loyalty and commitment is uncertain towards the Indian State and its core civilization  values and Rashtra Dharma
 

My Approach ( Some issues which needs urgent attention for now)
1. Fight for restoring all temples in the Hands of Hindu Kings and Local people free of Govt Control
2. Fight for Hindus to run their own schools and colleges without government interference
3. Stop top indian talent from migrating to the west

Many more... I shall stop for now
I bow down to your heart which beats for Dharma]]></description>
