SPECIAL LEAD
LEFT, BJP UNITE TO CORNER GOVT IN PARLIAMENT
Stalling activities in the Parliament yet again, the Opposition continued to target the government over the WikiLeaks disclosure on Wednesday, even as the Congress party stuck to its guns claiming no wrongdoing. CPI leader Gurudas Dasgupta called the UPA's bid to bribe MPs during the trust vote a case of parliamentary piracy and accused the government of a cover-up, sparking off ruckus. Sushma Swaraj slammed the prime minister for disregarding the KC Deo probe panel's findings. read more

EXPERT VIEWS

"We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one... We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history...I am not going to leave this land. I will die here as a martyr."

Muammar Gaddafi
Libyan Leader
"We have a succession plan. If I die at night the board of directors has somebody. It is going to happen some night and the next morning they know who will be in charge. Now that may change five years from now because of age, because if somebody new joins us. Hence, it would not make sense to name that person today. So, we have a clear succession plan, we have not just announced the successor."

Warren Buffett
Chairman, Berkshire Hathaway
"It is the habit of the Prime Minister to blame others. If it is price rise then (Agriculture Minister) Sharad Pawar is responsible, if it is 2G then (former Telecom Minister) A Raja is responsible and if it is Commonwealth Games then (Suresh) Kalmadi is to blame...People are fed up with such excuses. They are asking why you are the Prime Minister."

Sushma Swaraj
Leader Of Opposition In Lok Sabha
