15th "Lok Sabha" a "Family Album"

Cutting across the barriers of "Region& Religion","Cast& Gender",Party &Ideology","Left,Right & Center" all the 543 members of Lok Sabha will remain unanimous and proud in declaring the Indian 'Parliament' a complete "Family Affair"

In the 15th "Lok Sabha" we have two sets of 'Mother&son',4 sets of 'Father&son' besides hoards of sons,daughters,siblings,wives ,cousins and nephews.To add to these family trees we also have a fair dose of 'Bollywood' glamour.All these are bound to make a perfect cocktail for TV channels to scream a banner head line which may be similar to a current TV serial title "Ye Rista Kya Kehlata Hai...?.
The great Indian Democracy has at last been able to emulate the Karl Marx's slogan "From each according to his Ability and to each according to his Need ". However to end the similarity to 'Communism', it has restricted the scope of "ability" & "need" to a defined class of people called "politicians". So what happens for the survival of the other classes like "Slum Dogs" & "Middle Class"..? . No problem..the "Slum Dogs" will remain and keep figuring in the "Things To Do" list of the "political Class". After all they are the secret of their " boost & energy". What about the "Middle Class"? Well they will continue to be the "club sandwiches" for the politician's working lunch.Anyway let us not get furious and start raising our fingers.You know there are still five more years to go before we are allowed to repeat our act called "Ungli Utta aur vote Kar". So till then let's be happy being the "Sandwich" and not feel bad for not being in the "FAMILY ALBUM".
Anyways we have all along enduring being a "FACE IN THE CROWD" ...say "Cheese"

In conversation with Bapu....

With 'Sare Jahan Se Achcha' and 'Abide with Me'the Soul-stirring martial tunes and solemn drum beats at the majestic Raisina Hills the "Beating the Retreat" ceremony marked the conclusion of the week long ceremonial functions of India celebrating her 62nd year of Republic.As the illumination lit up the edifices of Imperial India..my thought reached out to that day into the history of independence that finally dropped the curtain on a life called "Gandhi"...the man whose experiment with truth may not have jelled with today but his name has truly become the brand that remain most misused & manipulated both in trade & politics.As I key-in these lines I can read out the conversation that would have transpired between the "soul of Nation" (SON) and "Mahatma Gandhi"(Bapu)....Read on what I read..... SON: Bapu it's me,are you sleeping....? BAPU: How can you ask that...don't you know this day in the year 1948..I was gu...

But 'PAPU' Can "Vote"...'Sala'..!

"Sala".. is a generally accepted slang for both 'hum' the "Hindustani" and 'tum' the "Indian". Together this "HUM TUM" make the "Aam Admi"of the world's largest 'democracy'. This is our "INDIA".I agree with the TV ad that almost says "My India Strongest" in spite of the "Everest" of issues that surround her. Normally in this country the fate of the 'ordinary' people ie 'Aam Admi' always remain woefully harassed, pushed and frustrated through the year. However at the close every 5 years this 'Aam Admi' suddenly become extraordinarily powerful and remain wooed by all 'big,small and sundry' political parties of the country. Yes it is time for General Election. In the coming months for the 15th Lok Sabha, 714 million eligible voters would be 'bee lining' to the ballot boxes across 29 states,6 union territories to elect 543 members . 'Jaago-...

Just about...being a "Father"

A new world greeted them with smile and happiness when they... "Just met" and soon for them the wedding bells rang... Now, they are happily lost in their own world & together are learning to set- up a 'Home’ of their own... away from what was a home for them a little earlier in the year....That's "his" daughter & "his" son in-law. ..Being very adorable, the house has become little less chirpy after her moving out….. …."He" now does feel the boredom...but will never show it off... Because "he" is the father ...and expected to put on a stern face & always remain a 'matter of fact' person..... He is all set to explore & build-up a learning curve that may see him well in life in about a couple of years from now. After his graduation he may probably start living away from home in a distant land in pursuit of excellence...That's "His" son Being the darling of the house, "he" is...
