JuM claims responsibility for Lal Chowk attack
Srinagar, Jan 6 (PTI) Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen, a radical outfit, today claimed responsibility for the terror attack in Lal Chowk here, saying the strike was intended to convey the message that militancy was not yet over in Kashmir.
Threatening further attacks, the pro-Pakistan militant outfit said today's assault was carried out to show that "Mujahideens are still living in the hearts of Kashmiris".
The attack was also aimed at derailing the "so-called political process" in the state, said Jaleel Ahmed, an outift spokesman, in a faxed statement to PTI.
"The attack will continue on Indian forces and vital installations," he said.
Militants opened fire and hurled grenades in busy Lal Chowk, the nerve centre of summer capital Srinagar, at around 1415 hrs sending terrified people scurrying for cover.
They barged into a hotel and were still holed up there.
The building had been ringed by security forces.

He served as the Chief Minister of Bengal from 1977 to 2000, making him India's longest-serving Chief Minister as of 2009[update].

Background
Basu was born into an upper middle-class Bengali family in Calcutta. He was initially named Jyotirindra Basu, but his name was shortened to Jyoti when he joined school. His father, Nishikanta Basu, was a doctor from the village of Barodi in Dhaka District, East Bengal (now in Bangladesh).[3] He received his primary and secondary school education at St. Xavier's Collegiate School. He graduated from Presidency College with an honours degree from the Art Faculty in 1935, and subsequently travelled to the United Kingdom to study law. He was introduced to the Communist Party of Great Britain by Bhupesh Gupta.
Basu returned to India in 1940, after qualifying for the Bar, and became a whole-timer of the Communist Party of India. In 1944 Basu became involved in trade union activities when CPI delegated him to work amongst the railway labourers. When B.N. Railway Workers Union and B.D. Rail Road Workers Union merged, Basu became the general secretary of the union.

Basu was elected to the Bengal Legislative Assembly in 1946, contesting the Railway constituency. When the Communist Party of India split in 1964, Basu became one of the first nine members of the Politburo of the newly-formed Communist Party of India (Marxist).[2] In 1967 and 1969, Basu became Deputy Chief Minister of West Bengal in the United Front governments.
From June 21, 1977 to November 6, 2000, Basu served as the Chief Minister of West Bengal for the Left Front government. In 1996 Jyoti Basu seemed all set to be the consensus leader of the United Front for the post of Prime Minister of India. However, the CPI(M) Politburo decided not to participate in the government, a decision that Jyoti Basu later termed a historic blunder. H.D. Deve Gowda from the Janata Dal instead became Prime Minister. Basu resigned from the Chief Ministership of West Bengal in 2000 for health reasons, and was succeeded by fellow CPI(M) politician Buddhadeb Bhattacharya. As of 2009[update], Basu holds the record for being the longest-serving Chief Minister in Indian political history.
The 18th congress of CPI(M), held in Delhi in 2005, re-elected Basu to its Politburo, although he had asked to be allowed to retire from it. On September 13, 2006, Basu entreated the CPI(M) to allow his retirement due to his age, but was turned down. General Secretary Prakash Karat said that the party wanted Basu to continue until its 2008 congress, at which point it would reconsider.[4] At the 19th congress in early April 2008, Basu was not included on the Politburo, although he remained a member of the Central Committee and was designated as Special Invitee to the Politburo.[1][2]
On January 1, 2010, Basu was admitted to a Calcutta hospital after feeling unwell.[5][6] As of 6 January 2010 (2010 -01-06)[update], his health condition is critical.[7][8]
Controversies
In January 2006 the Supreme Court of India issued notices to Basu and others in connection with land allotments in Salt Lake.[9]

Manu Rules Zionist Brahaminical India as Jyoti Basu Critical, on Ventilator!Veteran Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) leader Jyoti Basu, hospitalised with a pneumonia attack, was in critical condition Wednesday, a medical bulletin said.
Basu, 95, was hospitalised last week after a pneumonia attack and admitted to the Intensive Cardiac Care Unit of the hospital in Salt Lake, the Kolkata suburb where he lives.
Born in 1914 in Kolkata, Basu became chief minister in June 1977. He stepped down voluntarily on health grounds in November 2000.
One of the founding fathers of the CPI-M, Basu almost became India's prime minister in 1996, but the party vetoed the proposal.
This Sentence may hint you to understand the circumstances in Sensex India 2010 onwards. Jyoti Basu may be Predestined for DEMISE as the Marxists committed to Land reforms, Dictatorship of the Proletariat and the Ultimate Classless, Exploitationlesss Society due to emerge in REVOLUTION, have become the best Agency of Free Market Democracy as well as Ruling Brahaminical Hegemony. Even the HARD CORE Maoists compete with the UN, UNESCO, World bank, IMF, State Revenue and Resource Fed NGOs. Opportunist Intelligentsia, Pet Toilet Media and Civil Society led by BASTARDISED Politicians of all Colorful genres and the rouged Staff of Parent less so Called Economists and Policy Makers enrolled by MNCs and Corporates to STIMULATE Ethnic Cleansing and Mass Destruction!
Those who were Pronouncing Death Sentence for me, might have thought that I was so afraid that had no way but to seek Escape Route! Sorry Friends , I am Back from RAJASTHAN! Where I spent almost a Fortnight and attended and addressed 26th National Joint Convention of Backward(SC, ST and Obc) and Minority Communities Employees Federation and Mulnivasi Rashtriya Sangh attended by Seventy Thousand Delegates led by all prominent SC, ST and OBC communities in North India for instance JATS, MEENAs, BHEELS, Meghwals, Ravanas and so on. All the Jat Chowdharies Joined us and we dare to seize New Delhi any time! We may stall the NSE, BSE at any given time as we focus on Organised sectors also.I personally addressed the delegates on 24th and 29 th during the very Third and Last session. I dealt with the Mystery of Unique Identity Number Economics and then explained the Maoists Ruling Hegemony Corporate Political Military Equations.
Hence friends, it is not just writing on Net and Proving some Writing Skills! We have officially declared Action since First January 1010 and you have to watch! national President Vaman Meshram and other leaders have trained the CADRES how to mobilise Organised and Non Organised Masses during all these Five Days. We have interacted person to person, communities to communities everyday from the Morning till late in the Night!
All MAULANAS, and leaders of Minorities including Pasminda Muslims, Jamayet Ul Hind, all Tribal leaders joined us. Now we are United Rock Solid!
During this CONFERENCE we were stunned to witness that the Statue of Manu Maharaj who wrote Manusmriti stands just before the Rajasthan High Court in the Premises exposing Naked the Political as well as Judicial System Brahaminical. We have Maratha as well Jats with us. But the OBC Communities, Forty Two Percent in Bengal stick with the Eight Percent Brahamin Kayastha Baidya Ruling Hegemony for which Bengal has no Break Through for any Change whatsoever!
Please see COMRADE Jyoti Basu from this place only. Seventeen People DROWN in RUPNARAYA, Missing even after Three Days as almost all of them Hindi Speaking labour Class people. You may NEVER trace them out. Jyoti Basu is the Greatest Icon of Brahaminical Marxist Bengal, and you may not understand Bengal today without knowing Jyoti Basu who SLAUGHTERED Bengali Dalit Refugees whom he himself invited in Marichjhanpi ejecting out form Refugee Camps and Colonies outside Bengal to create Favourable Election Equation and succeeding to get the key of Power became afraid of Dalit Muslim Equation once again potential to dislodge the Brahamins once again, so BASU and Buddha Liberated MARICHJHANPI back in 1979. This Genocide is the Mother of all Genocides in BENGAL. But those Brahamins leading so many INSURRECTIONS and Singing, Writing Revolt NEVER NEVER demanded Justice for either the Partition Victims or the Victims in Marichjhanpi. They not only Mutilated the History of Black Untouchable Negroid Bengal, but MANIPULATED the history of Indian Holocaust targeting the SC, ST, OBC and Minority Communities!
Veteran Marxist leader and former West Bengal Chief Minister Jyoti Basu was put on ventilator this morning after his condition turned serious. Superintendent of AMRI hospital in Salt Lake Debashish Sharma, where Basu is admitted, said, "He has been put on ventilatory support this morning and his condition has turned serious".
96-year-old Basu, who was admitted to the hospital on Friday last following a "moderately severe" pneumonic infection, is under special observation at the ICCU, Sharma said.
A special medical board has been constituted to review Basu's condition. Dr A K Maity, Basu's personal physician and also a member of the board, said his condition was "unstable".
"Basu is critical. He was put on ventilator support early (Wednesday) morning as he was having respiratory problems," said the bulletin from AMRI Hospital, where a six-member medical board is treating the ailing leader.
"His condition is being monitored. All supporting medicines are being provided," the bulletin added.
The private hospital's Medical Superintendent Debasish Sharma told IANS: "His condition is serious."
Special task force to tackle Maoist insurgency
Naxals
The Maoist-infested states, including Jharkhand and Maharashtra, have set up a special task force in their bid to jointly tackle the Naxal problem, a senior West Bengal police officer said.
West Bengal, Bihar, Jharkhand, Chattisgarh, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and some other Maoist-hit states have selected 30 officers for the special task force to deal with the Maoist problem, he said.
The 30 selected officers had undergone a month-long training programme at Ghatsila in Jharkhand. Some foreign army officials, who have experience in tackling guerrilla warfare, also imparted them training, the police officer said.
Of the 30 officers selected for the task force, four are from West Bengal, the officer said.
"The force would be named soon and it will be pressed into action as and when the training programme is completed," Director General of Police of West Bengal Bhupinder Singh said.
Amar Singh resigns as SP General Secretary
New Delhi Amar Singh resigned as General Secretary and from other posts in the Samajwadi Party citing "health reasons" amid speculation over deepening differences with party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav.
Singh, who is in Dubai, said over phone that he has resigned as national General Secretary, Spokesman and member of the Samajwadi Party Parliamentary Board. He faxed his resignation from all the three posts to Yadav, he said.
"I have resigned from all the three posts with immediate effect and I have faxed my resignation to Mulayam Singh Yadav," said the 54-year-old high-profile spokesman of the party.
Shortly after the party's humiliating defeat in the Lok Sabha by-election in Firozabad in November, Singh had criticised Yadav, saying the defeat was because of the over confidence of the SP chief and his family.

No consensus, experts panel may be set up on Telangana

Express News Service
Posted: Jan 06, 2010 at 0450 hrs IST
New Delhi As the meeting of eight Andhra Pradesh parties
convened by Home Minister P Chidambaram failed in producing a consensus on Telangana today, the Centre was learnt to be considering setting up a panel to hold consultations with all stakeholders.
The panel, which would buy the Government time to restore normalcy in the state, could be a committee of experts headed by a retired judge of the Supreme Court, or a ministerial committee, or a mix of both.
The parties and their Andhra units largely reiterated their stated positions at today’s meeting. TRS chief K Chandrasekhara Rao and BJP leader Bandaru Dattatreya asked the Centre to take immediate steps to create Telengana. PRP chief Chiranjeevi said his party was for a united Andhra. Representatives from the Congress and TDP were divided along Telangana and non-Telangana lines. The CPI(M) stressed the need for a peaceful resolution.
Except for the BJP, which sought the tabling of a statehood Bill in the next session of Parliament, all parties agreed on setting up a mechanism for further consultations. The MIM’s Asaduddin Owaisi wanted President’s Rule in the state to control law and order.
“It appears to me that no one is opposed to further consultations with other groups and stakeholders. Should such consultations become necessary, they were keen that these should be completed in a reasonable time,” Chidambaram said.
In a joint statement, the parties said they had expressed their views at the meeting and these had been noted by the Centre. “Meanwhile, it is our earnest appeal that peace, harmony and law and order should be maintained in the state.”
In his opening statement, Chidambaram asked the meeting to be mindful of the Naxal threat, and their interest in a separate state.
“I wish to caution all political parties that there are forces waiting in the wings who ridicule parliamentary... democracy and who would be happy if we collectively fail to find answers to the issues that concern us and we should not give any room for these forces to gain strength or credence,” he said.
He urged all parties to show “accommodation and goodwill”. “There must be a halt to agitations and bandhs. Law and order must be maintained. Children must go to schools and colleges. People must be allowed to carry on their normal day-to-day activities. Government must be able to focus on development and the welfare of the people,” Chidambaram said.
The minister sought to dispel the “misconception that the central government acted in haste, that the political parties were not consulted, and that I, as Home Minister, acted as an individual” on Telangana. “As you are all well aware, none of these misconceptions is supported by facts, but I shall not waste your time refuting these conceptions,” he said.

Mumbai Equities stretched a rally into a fourth successive session on Wednesday, but there was resistance after the benchmark index hit a 22-month-high in early trade.
Investors took profits in export-focused outsourcers such as Infosys Technologies and Wipro that had more than doubled over the past year.
"The market is fairly priced at current levels. All eyes are now on earnings. Results are expected to be good, but that seems to be already there in the prices," said Gajendra Nagpal, CEO of Unicon Financial.
The 30-share BSE index closed up 0.08 per cent, or 14.89 points, at 17,701.13 after racing to 17,790.33 early, its highest level since Feb. 28, 2008.
Volume was relatively high for the third consecutive day, indicating longer trading hours kicked off on Monday were boosting business.
In the broader market, gainers led losers in the ratio of 1.1:1 on volume of 602 million shares.
Energy giant Reliance Industries, which has the highest weight on the Sensex, recovered 1.8 per cent to Rs 1,088.80 after dropping as much over the two previous sessions.
Financial stocks gained as investors were optimistic about their long-term prospects in a growing economy.
Top lender State Bank of India climbed 0.6 per cent while rival ICICI Bank gained 0.9 per cent.
Infosys shed 1.4 per cent and Wipro lost 1.7 per cent, after rallying 131 per cent and nearly 200 per cent respectively since the start of 2009.
Infosys, the No. 2 Indian outsourcer, is set to announce quarterly results on Jan. 12.
"The guidance is important now. If managements are gung ho about their future prospects, then there could be some room for those stocks to move up further," Nagpal said.
Maruti Suzuki fell 3.5 per cent to Rs 1,462.60 after the central bank said foreign institutional holdings had reached a trigger limit and fresh purchases would need its prior approval.
Metal stocks edged lower as investors booked profits after the previous day's sharp gains. Tata Steel shed 1.1 per cent, Hindalco dropped 2.5 per cent and Sterlite Industries eased 0.1 per cent.
Tata Power Company rose 4.6 per cent to Rs 1,474.10, taking gains over five sessions to 9.1 per cent, as investors bet firm thermal coal prices would boost the company's earnings from its 30 per cent holding in two Indonesian mines.
The 50-share NSE index closed 0.1 per cent higher at 5,281.80.

Mumbai ‘3 Idiots’ is unstoppable. That's the truth! No
distributor, no trade expert, no soothsayer can, at this moment, predict the magnitude of business of this film. No one has an answer, frankly!
‘3 Idiots’ is setting new records in India and also in the international markets. In fact, the second weekend numbers are approx. 70% to 80% of the first weekend numbers. Unimaginable!
No one expected ‘3 Idiots’ to surpass ‘Ghajini’. As I pen this piece, ‘3 Idiots’ has already surpassed ‘Ghajini’ and is already seated on the throne. Only goes to prove yet again that if a film has the merits, the sky is the limit. It can set new records, scale dizzy heights of success and work magic at the ticket window.
Given the fact that the ‘3 Idiots’ wave was so omnipotent, why were the producers of ‘Raat Gayi, Baat Gayi?’, ‘Accident On Hill Road’ and ‘Bolo Raam’ hell-bent on releasing their movies a week later, on December 31? They could've shifted the film to a latter date. That would've ensured more screens and better show timings.
All three films have been badly affected by the ‘3 Idiots’ wave. The numbers are poor. Not that their luck would've changed for better had they arrived later, but, I guess, the numbers would've been marginally better.

Mumbai police officers who work for Underworld gangs
Even before five of its personnel were caught partying with gangsters, the Mumbai Police have often been accused of an unholy nexus with the underworld.
Mumbai: The latest controversy in which five of their personnel have been suspended for allegedly attending a party hosted by gangster Chhota Rajan's close aides such as D K Rao is not the first time that the Mumbai Police have been caught on the wrong foot. In the past too, there have been instances when the line between the law enforcers and the law breakers has been blurred. Accused of being in cahoots with the underworld, two "encounter specialists" have faced the ignominy of being sacked by their police commissioners.
Here is a look at some Mumbai cops accused of having links with the other side.

Obama halts transfer of Guantanamo detainees to Yemen
Washington: The US has halted the transfer of inmates from the Guantanamo Bay detention facility back to Yemen, where an Al Qaeda branch allegedly plotted the Dec 25 attack on a Detroit-bound airliner, President Barack Obama said Tuesday.
About half of the nearly 200 remaining prisoners at Guantanamo are Yemeni citizens, making their fate a key component of the administration's pledge to close the controversial facility in Cuba.
Obama said the administration still intends to close Guantanamo. But the "unsettled situation" in Yemen, which is battling the terrorist group Al-Qaeda, had forced the transfers to be stopped.
"Make no mistake. We will close Guantanamo prison, which has damaged our national security interests and become a tremendous recruiting tool for Al-Qaeda," Obama said.
Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the 23-year-old Nigerian charged with attempting to blow up the Christmas Day flight from Amsterdam to Detroit, was reportedly trained and acquired his explosives in Yemen.
The White House has been under pressure since reports emerged that two former Guantanamo detainees have become major figures in the Yemeni-based terrorist group Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, which has claimed responsibility for the Detroit attack.
Obama originally promised a year ago to close Guantanamo by Jan 22, but has since acknowledged that his deadline will not be met.

Australia urges India to avoid hysteria over student's killing
Melbourne: Australia's Acting Foreign Minister Simon Crean has urged India not to fuel hysteria over the killing of a student in Melbourne even as India issued an advisory asking Indians studying or working in Australia to take extra security precautions while moving around.
Crean maintained there was no evidence the attack was racially motivated.
"It so happens that one of the victims is Indian?Melbourne is not the only city in the world where this happens. It also happens in Delhi and in Mumbai," Crean was quoted as saying by The Age.
"It's an unfortunate fact of life, but so far as the victim is concerned and his parents, our deepest sympathy for them and we're doing everything we can to track down the perpetrators."
Asked about Indian External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna calling upon Australia to respond to the "uncivilised brutal attack on innocent Indians", Crean said he hoped "wiser heads will prevail", the newspaper reported.
Twenty one-year-old Nitin Garg was knifed in the suburb of West Footscray Saturday evening while on his way to work. He staggered to Hungry Jack's restaurant and pleaded for help before collapsing. He was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital where he died.
India's external affairs ministry Tuesday issued an advisory asking Indians studying or working in Australia and those planning to do so to take extra security precautions while moving around in that country.
Alluding to a surge in incidents of assault and robbery targeting Indians in Australia, the ministry issued a list of dos and don'ts for Indians in that country. It includes not travelling alone at night and not carrying more cash than required.
Crean admitted there could be economic repercussions from publicity in India over recent attacks.
"We have been through this type of issue before ? and from the prime minister down we have been talking with our Indian partners and reassuring them that this country doesn't condone nor do we believe that these are racially based attacks."
Acting Premier Rob Hulls called on the Indian government to show restraint in its response to the killing. "People should just show some restraint and allow the police to get on with the job of investigating this callous crime," he said.

Angry Obama says intelligence failed to connect the dots
Washington: Noting that there was sufficient information to uncover the December 25 plot, US President Barack Obama has said that the intelligence community failed to connect the dots and added that this would not be tolerated.
"Elements of our intelligence community knew that Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab had travelled to Yemen and joined up with extremists there.
It now turns out that our intelligence community knew of other red flags: that al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula sought to strike not only American targets in Yemen but the United States itself," Obama said yesterday.
"We had information that this group was working with an individual who we now know was in fact the individual involved in the Christmas attack," said the US President in a statement soon after his meeting with the top national security and intelligence aides.
Obama had convened a Security Room meeting of his top intelligence and security aides to review the security breach and intelligence failure in the December 25 plot in which a Nigerian national, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, successfully sneaked in explosive inside the a US plane, but somehow failed in igniting it.
Some 300 people were on board the North West Airlines plane coming from Amsterdam to Detroit.
"The US government had sufficient information to have uncovered this plot and potentially disrupt the Christmas-Day attack, but our intelligence community failed to connect those dots, which would have placed the suspect on the no-fly list," a visibly upset Obama said.
"In other words, this was not a failure to collect intelligence; it was a failure to integrate and understand the intelligence that we already had. The information was there.
Agencies and analysts who needed it had access to it, and our professionals were trained to look for it and to bring it all together."
Now, I will accept that intelligence by its nature is imperfect, but it is increasingly clear that intelligence was not fully analysed or fully leveraged. That's not acceptable, and I will not tolerate it," he said issuing warning to his intelligence agencies.
"Time and again, we've learned that quickly piecing together information and taking swift action is critical to staying one step ahead of a nimble adversary. So we have to do better, and we will do better. We have to do it quickly.
American lives are on the line," he said. Obama said he has asked his team that he wants initial reviews completed this week. "I want specific recommendations for corrective actions to fix what went wrong. I want those reforms implemented immediately, so that this doesn't happen again and so we can prevent future attacks," he said.
Sending a tough message, Obama said: "I know that every member of my team that I met with today understands the urgency of getting this right, and I appreciate that each of them took responsibility for the shortfalls within their own agencies.

Coordinates: 26°34′22″N 73°50′20″E / 26.57268°N 73.83902°E / 26.57268; 73.83902 Rājasthān (Hindi: राजस्थान, pronounced [raːdʒəsˈtʰaːn] ( listen)) is the largest state of the Republic of India by area. It encompasses most of the area of the large, inhospitable Great Indian Desert (Thar Desert), which has an edge paralleling the Sutlej-Indus river valley along its border with Pakistan. The state borders Pakistan to the west, Gujarat to the southwest, Madhya Pradesh to the southeast, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana to the northeast and Punjab to the north. Rajasthan covers an area of 132,150 sq mi or 342,269 km².
The state capital is Jaipur. Geographical features include the Thar Desert along north-western Rajasthan and the termination of the Ghaggar River near the archaeological ruins at Kalibanga, which are the oldest in the subcontinent discovered so far.
One of the world's oldest mountain ranges, the Aravalli Range, cradles the only hill station of Rajasthan, Mount Abu, and its world-famous Dilwara Temples, a sacred pilgrimage for Jains. Eastern Rajasthan has two national tiger reserves, Ranthambore and Sariska, as well as Keoladeo National Park near Bharatpur, once famous for its bird life.
Rajasthan was formed on 30 March 1949, when all erstwhile princely states ruled by Rajputs, known as Rajputana, merged into the Dominion of India. The only difference between erstwhile Rajputana and Rajasthan is that certain portions of what had been British India, in the former province of Ajmer-Merwara, were included. Portions lying geographically outside of Rajputana such as the Sumel-Tappa area were given to Madhya Pradesh.

[edit] History
Maharana Pratap Singh, legendary sixteenth century Rajput ruler of Rajasthan.
The iconic Mehrangarh Fort built by Rao Jodha in 1459.
The Chittorgarh Fort is one of the largest fort in Asia.
Hawa Mahal or "Palace of Winds" in Jaipur.
The Indus Valley Civilization, one of the world's first and oldest civilizations, was located in part of what is now Rajasthan. Kalibangan in Hanumangarh district, Rajasthan was a major provincial capital of the Indus Valley Civilization.[1] Traditionally the Dangi,Bishnoi Rajputs, Yadavs, Jats, Bhils, Gujjars, Meenas and other tribes made a great contribution in building the state of Rajasthan. All these tribes suffered great difficulties to protect their culture and the land. Millions[2] of them were martyred for this land. ‘The Hinduan Suraj’ title to Udaipur was only due to Sisodia Rajputs. Gujjars had been exterminated in Bhinmal and Ajmer areas fighting with the invaders. Bhils once ruled Kota and Bundi. Bargurjars were sardars in Alwar, Jodhpur and Ajmer areas.[2] Bargurjars and Meenas were ruler of Dhundhar region, Bundi.
The earlier contributions of warriors and protectors of the land —Vishnoi, Bargurjars, Jats, Bhils, Gujjars and Meenas — were neglected and lost in history.[3] Rajasthan means the Land of the Kings. Modern Rajasthan includes most of Rajputana, which comprises mainly the erstwhile Rajput kingdoms as well as two Jat kingdoms and a Muslim kingdom.Jodhpur, Bikaner, Udaipur, and Jaipur were some of the main Rajput states. The Jats were rulers in Bharatpur and Dholpur. Tonk was ruled by a Muslim Nawab. Rajput families rose to prominence in the 6th century CE. The Rajputs put a very valiant resistance to the Islamic invasions and protected this land with their warfare and chivalry for more than 500 years. They also resisted Mughal incursions into India, but contributed to the slower than anticipated access to the Indian Subcontinent. Later The Mughals, with a technique based on the combination of treachery and skilled warfare were able to set firm grip on northern India. The fighter spirit and valour of Rajputs impressed the Mughals to such an extent that they started treating their Rajput aides as the backbone of their Kingdom.Even after defeating, the Mughals held Rajput valour and value in highest esteem.
Mewar led others in resistance to Muslim rule: Rana Sanga fought the Battle of Khanua against Babur, the founder of the Mughal empire; and Maharana Pratap Singh resisted Akbar in Haldighati, the Bhils were Rana's main allies. Most of these attacks were evenly met as the Mughals outnumbered Rajputs in great numbers in all the wars fought between them. The Haldighati war was fought between 10,000 Rajputs and 1,00,000 Mughal force. Over the years the Mughals began to have internal disputes which took their concentration away at times. They also had to fight off Pathan warriors from neighbouring Afganistan and the newer enemy, the British Empire which consisted of large numbers of natives whilst engaging against various other regional powers such as the Persians. The Mughal Empire eventually weakened to which several groups across their kingdom (including Sikhs) saw opportunities to establish their power whilst the army was fighting somewhere else. The Rajputs saw this as an opportunity to reassert their independence. With the decline of the Mughal Empire in the 18th century, Rajputana came under attack by the Marathas and Pindaris, and the Maratha general Scindia captured Ajmer. The Rajput kings following a rapid defeat, concluded treaties with the British in the early 19th century, accepting British sovereignty in return for local autonomy. Following the Mughal tradition as well as its strategic location Ajmer became a province of British India, while the autonomous Rajput states, the Muslim state Tonk, and the Jat states (Bharatpur and Dholpur) were organized into the Rajputana Agency.
The Marwaris (people from Marwar) and Rajasthan's formerly independent kingdoms created a rich architectural and cultural heritage, seen today in their numerous forts and palaces (Mahals and Havelis) which are enriched by features of Muslim and Jain architecture. The development of the frescos in Rajasthan is linked with the history of the Marwaris, who have also played a crucial role in the economic development of the region. Most of the wealthiest families throughout Indian history have links to Marwar. These families include the legendary Birla, Bhandari, Bajaj, Mittal, Agrawal and Khandelwal families.
[edit] Geography
The Aravalli Range adds diversity to the landscape of Rajasthan.
The Thar Desert
The hills around Jaipur.
The main geographic features of Rajasthan are the Thar Desert and the Aravalli Range, which runs through the state from southwest to northeast, almost from one end to the other, for more than 850 km. Mount Abu is at the southwestern end of the range, separated from the main ranges by the West Banas River, although a series of broken ridges continues into Haryana in the direction of Delhi where it can be seen as outcrops in the form of the Raisina Hill and the ridges farther north. About three-fifths of Rajasthan lies northwest of the Aravallis, leaving two-fifths on the east and south.
The northwestern portion of Rajasthan is generally sandy and dry. Most of the region is covered by the Thar Desert, which extends into adjoining portions of Pakistan. The Aravalli Range does not intercept the moisture-giving southwest monsoon winds off the Arabian Sea,as it lies in a direction parallel to that of the coming monsoon winds, leaving the northwestern region in a rain shadow. The Thar Desert is thinly populated; the town of Bikaner is the largest city in the desert. The Northwestern thorn scrub forests lie in a band around the Thar Desert, between the desert and the Aravallis. This region receives less than 400 mm of rain in an average year. Summer temperatures can exceed 45 °C in the summer months and drop below freezing in the winter. The Godwar, Marwar, and Shekhawati regions lie in the thorn scrub forest zone, along with the city of Jodhpur. The Luni River and its tributaries are the major river system of Godwar and Marwar regions, draining the western slopes of the Aravallis and emptying southwest into the great Rann of Kutch wetland in neighboring Gujarat. This river is saline in the lower reaches and remains potable only up to Balotara in Barmer district. The Ghaggar River, which originates in Haryana, is an intermittent stream that disappears into the sands of the Thar Desert in the northern corner of the state and is seen as a remnant of the primitive Saraswati river.
The Aravalli Range and the lands to the east and southeast of the range are generally more fertile and better watered. This region is home to the Kathiarbar-Gir dry deciduous forests ecoregion, with tropical dry broadleaf forests that include teak, Acacia, and other trees. The hilly Vagad region lies in southernmost Rajasthan, on the border with Gujarat. With the exception of Mount Abu, Vagad is the wettest region in Rajasthan, and the most heavily forested. North of Vagad lies the Mewar region, home to the cities of Udaipur and Chittaurgarh. The Hadoti region lies to the southeast, on the border with Madhya Pradesh. North of Hadoti and Mewar is the Dhundhar region, home to the state capital of Jaipur. Mewat, the easternmost region of Rajasthan, borders Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. Eastern and southeastern Rajasthan is drained by the Banas and Chambal rivers, tributaries of the Ganges.
The Aravali Range runs across the state from the southwest peak Guru Shikhar (Mount Abu), which is 1,722 m in height, to Khetri in the northeast. This divides the state into 60% in the northwest of the range and 40% in the southeast. The northwest tract is sandy and unproductive with little water but improves gradually from desert land in the far west and northwest to comparatively fertile and habitable land towards the east. The area includes the Thar Desert. The south-eastern area, higher in elevation (100 to 350 m above sea level) and more fertile, has a very diversified topography. in the south lies the hilly tract of Mewar. In the southeast, a large area within the districts of Kota and Bundi forms a tableland. To the northeast of these districts is a rugged region (badlands) following the line of the Chambal River. Farther north the country levels out; the flat plains of the northeastern Bharatpur district are part of an alluvial basin.
[edit] Economy

[edit] Flora and fauna
Chinkara
Great Indian Bustard
Though a large percentage of the total area is desert, and even though there is little forest cover, Rajasthan has a rich and varied flora and fauna. The natural vegetation is classed as Northern Desert Thorn Forest (Champion 1936). These occur in small clumps scattered in a more or less open forms. Density and size of patches increase from west to east following the increase in rainfall.
Some wildlife species, which are fast vanishing in other parts of India, are found in the desert in large numbers such as the Great Indian Bustard (Ardeotis nigriceps), the Blackbuck (Antilope cervicapra), the Indian Gazelle (Gazella bennettii) and the Indian Wild Ass.
The Desert National Park, Jaisalmer, spread over an area of 3162 km², is an excellent example of the ecosystem of the Thar Desert, and its diverse fauna. Great Indian Bustard, Blackbuck, chinkara, desert fox, Bengal fox, wolf, desert cat etc. can be easily seen here. Seashells and massive fossilized tree trunks in this park record the geological history of the desert. The region is a haven for migratory and resident birds of the desert. One can see many eagles, harriers, falcons, buzzards, kestrel and vultures.

DID YOU KNOW.. some facts about Jyoti basu.... Basu was born into an upper middle-class Bengali family in Calcutta. He was initially named Jyotirindra Basu. But the name was shortened to Jyoti when he joined school. His father Nishikanta Basu, a doctor, hailed from the village of Barodi in Dhaka District, East Bengal (now in Bangladesh).[3] He got his school education at St. Xavier's Collegiate School. He graduated from Presidency College with an honours degree from the Art Faculty in 1935, and subsequently travelled to the United Kingdom to study law. He was introduced to the Communist Party of Great Britain through Bhupesh Gupta. Basu returned to India in 1940 after qualifying for the Bar and became a whole-timer of the Communist Party of India. In 1944 Basu became involved in trade union activities. CPI delegated him to work amongst the railway labourers. When B.N. Railway Workers Union and B.D. Rail Road Workers Union merged Basu became the general secretary of the union.
