Dominic Emanuel, Harsh Mander, John Dayal, Navaid Hamid, H.L. Hardenia, Praful Bidwai, Ram Puniyani, Shabnam Hashmi, Shahid Siddiqui, and Seema Mustafa. <br /><br />It was wrongly stated in the report by our Special Correspondent that the statement was signed by N. Ram, Editor-in-Chief of The Hindu, Chandan Mitra, Editor-in-Chief of The Pioneer, and editorial representatives from The Times of India, Hindustan Times, The Indian Express, The Hindu, The Pioneer, and The Telegraph. <br /><br />We apologise for the serious blunder by our Special Correspondent, who inexplicably mistook the persons to whom the statement was emailed for publication, for the list of signatories.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32317349.post-49920992259314533002011-01-22T07:05:17.695-08:002011-01-22T07:05:17.695-08:00Based on what we know, the editorial does seem bal...Based on what we know, the editorial does seem balanced to me too. There is no doubt the governor has been partisan in the past but he could not have been expected to overlook evidence against the CM when permission was sought.cbcnn_Pilidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07404596183953851196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32317349.post-35779004226241322442011-01-21T19:09:10.792-08:002011-01-21T19:09:10.792-08:00Would like to know Pilid's take on Karnataka a...Would like to know Pilid's take on Karnataka affair.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.hindu.com/2011/01/22/stories/2011012255111200.htm" rel="nofollow">This editorial seems to be balanced to me:</a> It is one thing to turn the Raj Bhavan into a retreat for elderly or inconvenient politicians.

This instance is a good example. Para 39 takes the cake: "Despite this horrible oppression on them, the tribals of India have generally (though not invariably) retained a higher level of ethics than the non-tribals in our country. They normally do not cheat, tell lies, and do other misdeeds which many non-tribals do. They are generally superior in<br />character to the non-tribals." Wonder what the basis is for such beliefs. Courts are normally supposed to be sticklers when it comes to procedures and rules of evidence but the way our judges reveal their personal beliefs without much concern for any of that raises questions about the integrity and impartiality of our judicial system.cbcnn_Pilidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07404596183953851196noreply@blogger.com
