The Maharashtra government has recommended Ashok Chakra for the 19 policemen killed by the terrorists, which includes Hemant Karkare. Is dying in the line of duty the only qualification to be recommended for the country’s highest gallantry award? While some among the policemen have indeed made heroic efforts to kill the terrorists while falling to their bullets, Hemant Karkare appears to have had no idea what he was in the midst of, let alone attempt to kill the terrorists. He was, sad to say, shot dead like a dog by randomly fired bullets of the terrorists. There is absolutely nothing heroic in his death. No doubt he has to be commemorated for his long, varied and distinguished service in the police force. However, on that fateful day of 26th November 2008, he was clearly out of his depth and drowned ingloriously. Also, it is open to question whether he displayed the required professionalism in handling the so-called Hindu terrorists. In fact, he will be long remembered for his infamous attempts to corrupt a Sadhvi by showing her pornography.

Malegaon blast probe and Mumbai terrorist attack
The Malegaon blast probe against Hindu involvement under Hemant Karkare must be the most unprofessional probe ever conducted by any professional body in Indian history. What was the need for the ATS to leak unverified statements to the press? Were they bent on tarnishing the name of Hindu organizations under the aegis of a political party? If the Mumbai attacks were not carried out as a commando attack by the terrorists but instead some bombs had been planted in many locations and the perpetrators had vanished, then surely, under the circumstances, the entire blame would have come upon Hindu organizations. However, this was not to be. Not only was it a commando operation, but one commando was caught alive. If this did not happen, then even the 10 dead terrorists would have turned out, under the expert ATS investigation team, to be "unidentified Hindus". Why, they might have even said that the terrorists were uncircumcised. So the Mumbai terrorist attack not only saved the Hindu organizations, it also revealed the Muslim villains and their masters in Pakistan. The enemies of Hinduism faltered just when they had an opportunity to corner Hindu organizations once and for all. This proves that God is with the Hindus.

The incontrovertibility of Existence
Nothing dies, only changes of form occurs. Now which modern scientist said, Matter can neither be created nor destroyed...
The Wikipedia tells me:
There is a scientific law called the Law of Conservation of Mass, discovered by Antoine Lavoisier in 1785. In its most compact form, it states:
matter is neither created nor destroyed.
In 1842, Julius Robert Mayer discovered the Law of Conservation of Energy. In its most compact form, it it now called the First Law of Thermodynamics:
energy is neither created nor destroyed.
In 1907 (I think), Albert Einstein announced his discovery of the equation E = mc2 and, as a consequence, the two laws above were merged into the Law of Conservation of Mass-Energy:
the total amount of mass and energy in the universe is constant.
Generally, textbooks would add, that mass and energy can interconvert.
