Guess how much India is spending on keeping the sole surviving 26/11 Pakistani terrorist alive - and healthy in prison? Over Rs 30 crore and counting.:shock::evil:

do you people really believe this crap?

Tell me a reason not to believe. That sick terrorists demands flavored toothpaste, chicken biryani, urdu newspapers etc inspite of being in the custody. We're wasting a lot on him. It's sad but true.

^^^And from where is this money coming from? From the tax that we pay to the government - and they are spending it in this useless fashion.

Politically speaking, our diplomatic image matters a lot right now. We would not want to harm our ties with many nations just because they find another reason to hound us with human rights violation cases. Since the trial has been fully open and fair, we actually stand to gain a lot of diplomatic respect and have a strong case for giving him any sentence we wish to. IMHO, 31 crores spent was worth it. TOI would run this type of sh1t story of course.

In journalism, the worst kind of stories are page 3 stories and ones based solely on statistics.

just thinking the other way, where the 31 crores have gone?
some policemen, jail staff, security persons, lawyers etc. and people associated with these persons like contractors and suppliers of jail, court etc. are getting salary for these types of works. its not Rs31 crore wasted, its Rs 31 crore rotated.
OR 31 CRORE IS THE TURNOVER.

our diplomatic image has been good, but that has not helped us much, apart from bringing us word of mouth appreciation. No country wants to support us on core issues like kashmir and dealing with pakistan.

We should have had a no-nonsense, tough policy with regards to terrorism and separatist activities from the start, now its too late to adopt such a stance.

I agree with you. But what's done is done now.

What trial? He murdered people in daylight, he should be sentenced to 100yrs imprisonment now(I don't support capital punishment), if things go like this then he will live happily ever after in prison and get sentenced to death in another 60yrs, then there's the human rights BS and he dies peacefully in jail @ the age of 80, he's living here in a much better cond. than he would in pakistan. Damn indian judicial system :conspiracy:
