Google India gives in to Indian High Court pressure, told a trial court that it has removed certain webpages from the internet in compliance with the court’s order, which directed Google and 21 other websites to remove the objectionable content in the form of photographs, videos or texts which might hurt religious sentiments.

Facebook India, which also filed its compliance report before additional civil judge Praveen Singh, told the court that it does not control or operate the servers that host the website available at www.facebook.com, which are located in the United States.

The compliance reports were filed in response to the court’s December 24, 2011 order directing them and 21 other social network websites to give replies on a civil case filed by a man who has sought removal of certain “anti-religious” or “anti-social” content in the form of photographs, videos or texts which might hurt religious sentiments.

Although, Google and Facebook, tried their very luck, Delhi High Court is rightfully very stubborn on the matters of Religion and i believe, as a land of many religions, India must protect its identity as the place where a man can follow his religion without any fear or getting hurt.

They did it again! New York Police Department, is under fire after civil complaints from all across the country pour in demanding legal explanation on spying over a Muslim community.

The complaint comes after an internal memo became public recommending [Spying?] increased surveillance of the city’s Shia community.

Top police officials insist the police only follow-up legitimate leads.

The memo, part of a 2006 report, recommended expanding the NYPD’s spying operation on Shia mosques and Muslim centres. It was addressed to Police Commissioner Ray Kelly.

On Thursday, Mr Kelly called the memo a “contingency plan” in case of military conflict between the US and Iran, although no such language is used in the document.

The report was made public by the Associated Press as part of a series of reports on the NYPD’s response to terrorism.

The police commissioner is already under fire for appearing in the “The Third Jihad”, a controversial movie about Muslims.

Letter to Attorney General

In their letter, addressed to Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, thirty-three groups said that the memo further uncovered “a disturbing picture about the NYPD’s institutional approach” to the Muslim community that “erodes the public’s trust and confidence”.

“The need to hold the NYPD accountable for its flagrant use of discriminatory policing practices has never been more glaring and urgent,” the letter says.

Mr Schneiderman’s office did not offer comment on the letter.

Mosque president Asad Sadiq of Bait-ul-Qaim in New Jersey, one of the institutions listed in the NYPD memo, said the department’s policy was noticeably different than that of the FBI, which has occasional meetings with him to discuss security issues.

Mr Sadiq said the NYPD would be more than welcome in his mosque if they came in announced, like the FBI does.

“Just because we are the same religion doesn’t mean we’re going to stand up and harm the United States,” he told the Associated Press. “It’s really absurd.”

About 100 people are feared trapped inside a ferry that sank in rough weather off Papua New Guinea, a rescue official said on Friday, a day after the crowded boat went down with about 350 people on board.

Rescuers plucked 238 people from the sea off PNG’s northeast coast after the MV Rabaul Queen was hit by three large waves and quickly sank, Rony Naigu, a rescue official from Papua New Guinea’s maritime safety authority, said on Friday.

While a definitive passenger list was not available, rescuers believed 352 people were on board the ferry when it sank and about 100 people were thought to have been trapped inside, Naigu told Reuters by telephone.

Naigu, who spent Thursday at the scene, said survivors told how the ferry rolled and sank in deep water after it was hit by the waves in stormy conditions.

Scores of passengers survived by clinging to debris before being picked up by at least six merchant vessels that diverted to the scene after being alerted by Australian maritime safety authorities.

“We found a number of (opened liferaft) capsules with no people in them,” Naigu said.

As rescuers resumed their search on Friday, relatives of those missing vented their anger over a lack of information from authorities, Australian media reported.

Survivors had been taken to Lae on PNG’s north coast early on Friday, said Nurur Rahman, acting chief of Papua New Guinea’s maritime authority.

“As you would expect people who have been in the water for such a long time have a bit of dehydration, and they are very tired,” Rahman told Reuters by telephone.

No bodies had been recovered on Thursday before nightfall halted the search, he added.

Police in West New Britain said relatives angry at the lack of information about their family members on the ship threw stones at the offices of the ferry operators, Rabaul Shipping, Australian Broadcasting Corporation Radio reported.

“There were a lot of people crying and then they wanted to know the fate of their loved ones, the people actually who were on board the Rabaul ship,” Inspector Samson Siguyaru said.

Rahul Gandhi, son of late Indian PM Rajiv Gandhi,  is on the race for the  Prime Minister post along with hundreds others, as per latest development in Indian Politics.

Rahul Gandhi, aged 42,  is the  member of Congress party in India, headed by his mother Sonia Gandhi. He is also a member of  Parliament of India.

Boy, I never cover  Political drama, but this one is worth a laugh.

The general elections is scheduled for 2014 and we can already find temperature brewing up between the Political parties who are vigilant to fight with each other over a small case.

In simple terms, Government Vs Opposition, always the case.

For congress of-course, it is clear that Rahul Gandhi is their candidate for the post.  Speaking out against the opposition, Congress general secretary Rashid Alvi said, “We are glad that realisation has finally dawned on the BJP that the Congress is all set to again return to power in 2014, and Rahul will become prime minister”

Taking a dig at the party, he went on to add, “I would like to assure the BJP that its position will remain secure in the opposition benches of parliament.”

I reckon, its just a start and as we enter the year, the Political drama will take a new course in India.

Oh My! This is interesting! Very very interesting! India has agreed to buy Iranian Oil  with gold instead of  Dollars as per latest reports.

Earlier last century, American Dollars became a world trademark currency, because of Oil rich countries selling their  Oil for Dollars defying gold.

Now, Iran has taken the initiative to sell the Oil for Gold and guess who penned the deal first. India!!!

Not Just India, Beijing is around the corner for the same deal and Russia is next door to pen the deal.

Man, this is exciting, Asian Countries use 40 percent of Iranian oil whereas Europe use 20 percent.

Seems like EU ban sanction on Iran will not work out and it  will be a very tough time for Europe to sustain its Oil supply.

Readers may think, whats exciting with the news.

See the Bigger picture, By selling the Oil for Gold to India, China, the worlds most rich nations in terms of resource and manpower, the dollar will be killed.

Just like the Dollar killed the Gold early 20th century, People will go back to Gold and Silver tradings, Just like our Ancestors traded.

The idea to sell Oil for Gold was first proposed by late Libyan leader  Gadaffi.  Now, Iran has about to implement it with India’s help.

Uncle Sam will be very angry on India , i think.

European Union have decided to stop signing new contract on Oil purchase from Iran and have agreed to ban all Oil imports from Iran starting July.

In their Statement, The EU foreign policy chief, Catherine Ashton, said on Friday that European countries remained open to diplomacy, even as sanctions were being imposed.

She said world powers had yet to receive a reply to an offer made to Iran in October to hold new talks.

Currently, Asian countries are the largest importer of Iranian Oil consuming 20 percent of the total Oil from Iran.

Iran Right To Self Defense

No offense, but i could not believe how low EU and US can dip to make a possible war on Iran.

Firstly, As US, Europe, China, Russia, India, Pakistan, Iran too has a right to develop Nuclear for their safety and internal matters.

Initially, US  developed Nuclear to bomb Japan in the second world war. Its only aim was to destroy and not for peace.

So when Iran looks forward to develop Nuclear for peace, US and EU is uncomfortable  with that! Lol.

I believe, if Iran had not taken an Initiative to self defense,  US would have attacked Iran way long back as they did with Iraq, Afghan with the name of War on Terror.

Uncle Sam and Europe should really come to age when it comes to convincing world powers on some false thing.
