This would have been hilarious if it were not for the millions of people who have been affected by the flood. But clearly our neighbors across the border haven't come across Mark Twain's famous quote: It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt. If they had, they wouldn't have blamed US, India and Afghanistan for the worsening flood situation there.

It's so typical of them to sit on the aid offered by India and go on with a begging bowl all over the world. If they don't care for their own people, why should India? With all due respect to those affected by this natural disaster, I think India should withdraw this offer if not accepted within a time limit. Let the world say what it wants.

It's time to show that there are limits to India's patience and generosity.
