The whole idea of having a democracy is to function in a transparent manner so that all are treated equally and all dealings that are concerning the state are made public....There is neither any need for secrecy nor is it the right thing to do ! That is how a dictatorship is born, when things are kept in the dark and one person makes all the decisions, which is almost what is happening now in India...

Transparency is okay but there is limit. You cannot go on broadcasting tiny details. Even the top management does not ask the junior manager every tiny details on what they do. We have delegated authority to the ruling alliance to manage the affairs of the country. This delegation has to be genuine. There is no sense putting questions on every minor issue or expecting them to explain everything- howsoever insignificant this may be.

One member remarked in a post that we should respect courts of our countries. We respect every institution, every human being, every country- but we can never allow them to interfere with our sovereignty. No court outside India has jurisdiction on matters in India and stating this fact is not disrespect to any court.

I think this is the case of "The dogs bark but the caravan moves on" or "dogs bark, but the elephant pays no attention and just keeps on walking" let the dogs bark. :evil:

That Big brother status is disappearing gradually. Any country with financial uncertainties cannot claim its supremacy.

Apparently, the United states government has no role in issue of summons to our leaders. That is mischief of certain groups. Also the courts there acted funny by issuing summons on matter outside their jurisdiction. Even if U.S. law allows them any jhurisdiction on matters outside U.S.A., this is ridiculous and not acceptable in international community.

The government doesnt have any say here, it is the courts and the sikh fgroups that are sending out summons because the sikh groups feel that they have been wronged and feel that they may never get justice on Indian soil, so they are trying what they can, so why drag the US government into this ?

I agree. U.S. government has nothing to do with the summons. The Sikh groups and court only are involved. If the groups feel that they get no justice in India, there is far less chance of that in U.S.A. as the courts there have no jurisdiction. If the offences against Sikhs are considered very grave and gross violation of human rights, United Nations could be appropriate forum.

Here it is worth mention that many Sikh groups are actually separatist Khalistan supporters and traitors. They are responsible for so many murders in India. In eighties and nineties, they were killing innocent non Sikhs by dragging them out from the state transport buses and shooting them. Such cruelty and anti national activities by militant Sikh terrorist groups continued unabated for several years. Bhindrawale was their leader. The terrorism of Sikh groups ended only through strict measures by police under able and strong command of then D.G.P. K.P.S. Gill. Ultimately Govt. had to allow forces under Blue star operation to enter Golden Temple to weed out terrorist anti national groups. Obviously the so called Sikh Right groups in U.S.A. are nothing but terrorist Khalistani supporters. Their involvement in summons is just treacherous and ridiculous.

In a way this case has nothing to do with US federal government, an independent group began this and the court accepted it but still it feels unethical in hearing all these.

Actually such groups are present in almost every country, which the countries concerned think are outlaw but the groups think that they were fighting a justified war. If you look in our own country, we defend Tibetans, Tamil groups of SL, Bangladeshis from erstwhile East Pakistan etc sympathetically but find such group in other countries unlawful. This is everywhere and to keep themselves in light such groups adopt to every possible methods, same is the case with this summon which has nothing to do on governmental level on either side. It is in between Soniya, Manmohan and that particular Sikh group. Therefore no use blaming US for all this.

Our support to Dalai Lama and his continuous anti China activities are a major cause of our bitter relation with China. Obviously, we exceeded the humane help. It would suffice to give asylum but it was wrong to allow them any anti China activities from our soil. However, presently, government of India has no direct role in the activities by Tibetan groups. But there is need for greater caution not to allow any insurgent groups of other countries to indulge in undesirable activities. We shall not like any anti India activities by Kashmiri, Sikh or other terrorist groups in other countries. Similarly we should respect sovereignty of other countries and not allow any insurgent activities from our land in name of human rights or whatsoever.
