    Whatever is getting inaugurated now by the current PM was started by the UPA govt. What did the current dispensation do? - Omar Abdullah lists the numbers. (Don't forget to see the sheer pain on the face of the anchor for getting slapped with the plain truth)

    May be late on this, but allow me to say it nonetheless. In a world stricken by sickness of the soul, the mind and the body, the Barshim-Tamberi episode restores our faith in humanity.

    Fave moment of the Olympics so far. Barshim (Qatar) and Tamberi (Italy) were tied in the high-jump final. The official is there talking about a prospective jump-off, but Barshim asks immediately: "Can we have two golds?" One look, no words exchanged, they know they're sharing it.
