Stupid..... Indian.?

-
The Whistle- blower website Wiki Leaks maintains that a top Singaporean diplomat described India as 'stupid'. Now that's not fair of a small country with big dreams to talk about 'India of my dreams'...which was authored by a man called Gandhi who also became the cause and effect of 'my India' waking up to freedom at midnight some 63 years way back in history...

'My India' today is one of the most secular nations in the world. So what if our secularism remains a vicariously vicious political tool to exploit people sentiments to ridicule and belittle our much talked culture of unity in diversity...

'My India' today is the largest democracy in the world which empowers we the people to elect the government of our choice. So what if the elections have come to become a Russian Roulette when it comes to triggering for right leadership...

'My India' today has enshrined in the constitution my fundamental right to freedom from all kinds of discrimination...so what if my intellect remains ever frustrated by discrimination called reservation,so what if our basic human dignity remains trampled and humiliated by discrimination based on cast,creed and sex...

'My India' today has a judiciary that remain independent of the executive and legislative branches of government...so what if they draw inspirations from politicians and criminals while passing judgments....

'My India' today has great development plans and programs for the welfare of the masses. So what if funds in billions ear marked for such programs remains siphoned and diverted for politicians political and personal welfare...

'My India' today has legislation for Right to information(RTI)so that every citizen in this country has right to seek answers for dis-functioning of government agencies..So what if today Over three million RTI cases are pending in India's 21 high courts, and an astounding 26.3 million cases are pending in subordinate courts across the country....

'My India' today is my pride,my love and my faith..So what if I believe and practice putting self before country when it comes to my need, my life, and my welfare...After all in this inflation ridden economy no one can afford to remain a stupid Indian patriot...

You see if you have big dreams for yourself,you need to be politician because
'My India' today can give you the right enough to leverage to ..bait the people..to..buy the people... & to... bully the people....After all in India today...we the people simply are a stupid....Indian!

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
