Love Aaj Kal...!

-
Our political Leaders are very much in 'love' with the 'Aam Aadmi'.They can go on and on talking about the 'Aam Aadmi'. They are so passionate about the 'Aam Aadmi' that at times they even choke while speaking about Aam Aadmi's a "tryst with destiny".

Most of us generally associate 'Love Story' with saga of "Laila Majnu" and the classic tragedy of Romeo&Juliet. So when our 'Political leaders' talk about their unending love for 'Aam Aadmi'....it is confusing and sounds crazy.You bet it is 'different.'..!

Let us now very quickly go over a few of the 'reasons' for our political leaders' "Love" for "Aam Aadmi". When an 'Aam Aadmi' elects him to 'Power'..there comes an instant transformation in him......!!!!
His living status gets elevated.Fame,power and Money makes him arrogant.He gradually becomes inaccessible to 'Aam Aadmis' welfare and well being. In the name of 'reform' he quickly learns to 'reform' his own life style. His house becomes a fortress. For him 'cost of living' becomes nothing more than a part of his 'public address'. For him the 'Aam Aadmis' fear & anguish about terrorist &terrorism...is just some 'statistics' to be used on the floor of the 'Parliament' as an historical reference. His preference of transportation shifts to 'Bentley' and SUV like 'Hummer'. For him and his family's medical needs..."London" becomes the 'medical destination'...and last but not the least, neither he nor his family members have ever to walk the crowded streets & inhale the open road side filth...therefore the chances of their getting "influ".."en..zed" by a bloody 'bird' or "swine" remains out of question...!
In nutshell....but for "Aam Aadmi".....all these would have been a sheer 'Mission Impossible'. No..wonder... for his being crazy in love with "Aam Aadmi"..who else..! but this 'Aam Aadmi'.. has given him the liberty to re-define Democracy...as......."ME,MINE & MYSELF"....Truly for the politician today..it is "Mera Desh Mahan"..from the word go...!

However, an unanswered question that remains in my mind is...why the "Aam Aadmi" still goes........emotional....when he attempts to hum ..this Bollywood 'number' .....'yeh mera India'.....'I love my India'...
...Well that's what I call the incredible "twist"in this "Love Aaj Kal"....After all India today.........continues to be Incredible............KOI..SHAQUE....?

    I was the youngest of the 4 siblings and the only son ,but that  never  made me precious and  pampered by the family. My father was in the army.

DE LHI Gasping!!

Delhiites have turned   indifferent to the " Toxic Air" that they breath  They have stopped bothering about the "smoke screen " that is keeping away   "Sun light"  from giving them the ray of "HOPE"  to keep their lungs "Sun Shined" . Like "AGE"  for them now  even the  AQI (Air Quality Index) has become a sheer number .They have long since stopped reacting to the AQI  shooting up. They have lost their "JOSH"" to protest for their fundamental right to breath. Delhi is the very seat of the duly elected "POWER".  of  World's largest Democracy  The "custodian" of this Democracy reside here  at   "7 LOK KALYAN"  but remain hardly visible in and around the city This  "custodian"  continues to remain the very "Most"  'Frequent Flier' of our Democracy and  the only  'STAR '  campaigner for the political party that he comes from.    Getting re-elected...

The Blessed Curse "Nostalgic flashes" !

   When you already  know a little about the  book it does create an  interest “Blessed Curse” was just that.  This book is about an  Indian middle class household  that is holding together three generations in generous harmony with all those ifs and buts about the generation gaps  The book undoubtedly is  an inspirational read  especially at a  time when the concept of   “nuclear households", remains a widely spread idea among the Millennials  It recalibrates your mind to question , debate ,accept and  celebrate every generation’s point of view  This book is the story of Jagdamba Prasad & his wife Pushpa Devi living with their son, daughter in law and grandchildren in one of the colonies of East Delhi’. The author in this book takes the reader through good, bad and ugly about each generation. The beauty is, it does not come as a bout of episodes but as “cosy chats” between the members of the family...
