…it feels good to be loved!
I got an email yesterday from “Indian Top Blogs” that  || Satyameva Jayate || is now ranked amongst the Top 14 blogs in India (according to their ranking) in the category of “Platinum” blogs.  The list of 14 “Platinum” blogs include only four that can be loosely categorised as dealing with socio-political issues (Acorn, DCubed, Sepia Mutiny and yours truly). I wish there were more in this list.
This post is a BIG Thank You to ALL of you for being part of this journey that started in July 2004 – and for your support and encouragement along the way. As I wrote more than a year ago,
Thanks to everyone who stumbled on this blog, or were referred to by a friend or discovered it accidentally – or were told by me to read it! You have made this journey worthwhile.
And a special thanks to everyone who has ever left a comment…who enriched the content and made it far more readable and enjoyable…I am truly grateful.
Please continue writing in and do spread the word.  If each one of you decides to tell one new person about this site every week, we’ll have 50 new readers within a year. If just 200 off you decide to do this, we’ll have 10,000 new readers by Jun ’12!
A BIG Thank You, धनà¥à¤¯à¤µà¤¾à¤¦, ধনà§à¦¯à¦¬à¦¾à¦¦, ધનà«àª¯àªµàª¾àª¦, ਮੇਹੇਰਬਾਨੀ, ಧನà³à²¯à²µà²¾à²¦à²³à³, நனà¯à®±à®¿!… Sorry, this is a poor and incomplete attempt but I hope you get the general idea .  Jai Hind, Jai Bharat!

Heheee … me nitpicking… in Kannada it is ಧನà³à²¯à²µà²¾à²¦à²—ಳೠnot ಧನà³à²¯à²µà²¾à²¦à²³à³
Congratulations sir. Your blog is a great starting point in understanding India. A Big Thank you from my side to you for this endeavor.
Felicitations !
Balancing enthusiasm between gravity and gravitas is not an easy job. At one end you may be pulled down by naivete; at the other end you are pulled up by mission focus.
You are doing a fine job of holding yourself aloft on a cushion of ingested wisdom….
Congratulations!! Your focus on this mission has made all the difference and am sure everyone who reads this blog can see your commitment through every post. Many best wishes for more such successes!
Congratulations ! I feel so happy at the fact that I am a regular reader of your blog-posts, ever since I came to know about it.
@ Ramaswamy-ji, JKV, Chandramouli-ji, Anjali and Kishan: Thank you for your kind words of encouragement and support…I sincerely appreciate it…Hope I can live up to your expectations…
Jai Hind, Jai Bharat!
@ JKV: Re. Kannada, thanks for pointing out..my only excuse is that I do not speak the language (had relied on the internet for translations; clearly some were wrong!)
Awesome Shantanu, this is a great achievement. Congratulations and keep it up.
Thanks a lot, Dinipc!
That’s great news man. I’ve been a silent admirer of your blog for the past few years. Your blog is one of the very few platforms that allow nationalistic Indians to share their thoughts with each other. Keep up the good work. May your tribe increase. 🙂
pranaam Shantanuji..Such a great achievement and your very humble, may we ensure the growth of your viewing by referring..Jai Hind.. Vande Mataram.
SB: Congratulations on this achievement. I had an opportunity to meet Michael Dell once when Dell was at its peak and one of the participant asked him how does he feel that his company is No 1 now and he responded saying ” when we got there, I spend exactly 60 seconds thinking about it and moved on” I am sure this a fantastic achievement but we have a very long way to go. I will surely travel with you in this journey of making India a better place. May all that what is written in “breaking india” may fall apart and may all that is written in “transforming india” come true. All the very best.
@A Man With No Name: Thanks!! and yes, May our tribe increase!
@Ranganaathan-ji: Pranaam..and thank you for your kind words..yes, please continue to spread the word..I will email you separately re. “Saluting Our Heroes” book.
@shyam: Well said…Indeed, change is the only constant..You are absolutely right that “we have a very long way to go”…This is just a modest beginning in the scheme of things..Thanks for your encouragement and support..
Jai Hind, Jai Bharat!
Congratulations, sir. You will grow stronger by the day, going by your writing and cause.
Thanks Kruti – With loyal readers and supporters like you, it certainly will!
Congratulations Shantanu ji. May this blog grow from strength to strength.
