Tonight on The Buck Stops Here:
The 2 minute death of a brand: Paranoia kills the cult?
As Delhi bans Maggi noodles for 15 days while Goa declares it safe for consumption, on The Buck Stops Here, we debate: is India caught in a noodle trap? Is Maggi just the tip of the iceberg? With high lead content how did Maggi get 'product approved'? And is the debate over Maggi noodles long overdue or alarmist?
'Parrikar gave opening to Pakistan to blame India for terror': Omar Abdullah to NDTV
As Pakistan accuses "enemies" of supporting terrorism, National Conference leader Omar Abdullah says comments by Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar has given Islamabad the perfect "opening". "Unfortunately we have given them this sort of high moral ground to take because our own defence minister has gone on record to say that we will use terrorism to end terrorism," he said. Mr Abdullah called Mr Parrikar's statement ill-advised and said "this is exactly the sort of opening that Pakistan has been looking for." He dissociated his party with his uncle Mustafa Kamal's statement in which Mr Kamal asked what was wrong with waving Pakistani flags in the Valley and blamed 'agencies' for attacks on mobile towers. Mr Abdullah also spoke on separatist SAS Geelani's passport controversy and the return of Rahul Gandhi.
