"Minding the Gap"..!

-
There is no government sponsored public projects that can ever wish away political interventions. The Delhi Metro project was so far considered blessed to be able to keep away from political inferences.May be that was the prime reason for it being able to work ahead of the deadlines.However of late it seems to have after all caught in the slips in spite of being on a robust bating pitch.
Well now the ball game of passing the monkey may live on till everything is wrapped out to a political perfection.However the blot on the clean chit that the "Team Metro" has been carrying so far....will remain an annoying spot in the "Aam Admi's" mind.However, it is but certain that the "Aam Admi" will keep his "prayers" lasting for the "Team Metro" to enable them to remain ultra vigilant in monitoring and minding the gap as it continue to drive "project Metro" through these 'rushing time for arriving on 'platform 2010' unscratched and in style...
Till then the Delhi's "Aam Admi" will continue to follow the sweet automated female voice .....as she keeps repeating "Mind the Gap" at the approaching of next station.
Doors to "Common Wealth" Game will open on the right side and on right time. There is absolutely "no gap" on that in any of the "Delhitian's" Minds. You see when it comes to "METRO"...all that the people of 'DELHI' have to say is "we are Loving it"..!

AFRICAN SAFARI.....a Book Review

-
Image
  "African Safari" is an intriguing title for a book that nowhere talks of  any expeditions to animal kingdom in the jungles of Africa. This book is about a cigar smoking business tycoon , a multibillion and multinational conglomerate whose business interest goes beyond his inherited empire of liquor and beer industries and spreads across industries  as diverse  as Airlines, Pharma, Paints, textiles to name a few. The media across the globe dub him as "King of good times".  "African Safari " is the story of "Rana Kapoor" the business tycoon and his business ventures in the French speaking regions of Africa, a continent that is fast emerging as world's big time growth market. The book takes us through  intricacies of clinching  business deals.  It talks about how political lobbying and networking with people in high places and bankers collaborate and become a blue print for M&A  stories. The book tells you that stories of business ventures

Giving words to my thoughts...

I  am returning to this space after 2 years and past 242 posts .It doesn't mean that I have lost my itch  for writing. I have always loved  scribbling words that give voice to the way I look at a situation, or to the way I feel about anything on the ground and under the sky. . My   view  may or may not matter  to the rest. However for me it remains a  mark of my own creativity. My creativity is more about visualizing things that  seldom see the light of the day.   Some call this  “Daydreaming” . I don't mind if people call me  a “wandering mind.” Neither I am bothered about the stigma called  “laziness” attached to it.  I see it as a tonic that energizes me  to think  beyond the realm of possibility For instance no matter how much  ever  I would have   chased my dreams  of becoming a corporate tycoon  I would never have been one simply because I would then lose the privilege and intimacy of being around with familiar and friendly faces sipping beer in crowded bar. I don't l

This Bihar election is the first major election since the Covid 19 pandamic disrupted the political calender and prompted sweeping measures for social distencing. The three Phase Bihar Poll for 243 Vidhan Sabha seats was completed on the 7th. The turnout for the poll as per media report was 58%. Today is the vote counting day. By the time the sun sets today , the dawn  of the next political regime in the State will emerge. Will this dawn usher in a new political 'don' or  the "Sarkar Raj" will continue  with  their  "All is Well " narrative for another 4 years. Will PM Modi, the over used "trump card" political campainer for NDA  be able  to push  back JDU- BJP led alliance once again into rulling Bihar for another four year terms or will he   concede defeat without playing and  crying foul.  Well whatever be the outcome of today's polling verdict, the politics of vendetta and vilifying the  poor will continue. The problem of unemployment, the
