"Hindustan Bol Raha Hai"!

Aam admi today continues to remain so frustrated and pissed up with a "Hindustan" jo dik raha hai"!..that he hardly finds any truth in "Hindustan jo Bol Raha Hai"!.This has absolutely nothing to do with a TV ad with almost a similar title where we see the youth icon 'Deepika Padukone' dancing from one shot to the other on a vigorous brand building exercise for BSNL.
Coming back to Aam admi and his frustrations,let me buzz over his latest irk..in Delhi,the 'epicentre' of power and the venue of the upcoming "commonwealth Games".
Caving roads & buildings,collapsing flyovers,cracking & gaping 'BRT' corridors, over flowing drains,flooding underpasses,derailing "Metros" are some few 'issues' in the parcel of civic "issues" that the Aam admi is enduring as he travels around the city everyday straining his limbs and patience through chaotic traffic jams and blinking traffic lights. However on the other side the local authorities,government agencies and political biggies seem to be happy killing time playing 'passing of the parcel'. Looks like they are waiting for some 'invisible' force to stop the music to 'spot' who is holding the parcel.
Well glorifying action by shifting responsibilities may convince the mute Aam admi. However this may not be enough to convince the 'commonwealth Authorities' who are holding the 'strings' on which precariously hangs the image and prestige of the entire country. This country needs to 'deliver' and not remain perpetually pregnant with promises for "action".Today this is what "Hindustan Bol Raha Hai".."Mano Ya Na Manno".!

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...
