Cattle @ home but bull outside...!.

When Shashi Tharoor in good humor used the term "cattle" to refer the common Indian all the political parties and politicians were furious and got busy giving statements to the press & the media condemning the reference. Of course these were as symbolic as paying homage to Mahatma Gandhi at the Raj ghat...

Now when the Indian students are being "Radio tagged" at the US universities none of the politicians and their parties seem to be giving any teeth in their condemning the Americans for their deplorable actions as well their attitude of arrogance towards Indians. The government also is simply doing nothing beyond giving official statement, which are nothing but diplomatic rituals.

Even the Indians living in America who today by their sheer numbers exercise unprecedented political influence in American politics remain deep in their slumber.

Why we as a nation always remain overboard in our being influenced by everything about America& Americans..? When will we learn to shed our complex and rise up for our dignity & our pride..?

Did we really need one Barrack Obama to tell us that we as people and as a nation make an indispensable India...? Don't we know that India today has become the very survival economic kit for America and the West. .!

For God sake let us wake up and collect our guts to tell America that it is our knowledge power and our vibrant human resources that are serving & sustaining America. Lets make them realize that they cannot take our liberalized attitude as liberty to keep bullying us.
We don't mind being cattle at home but we defiantly need to be a bull out side....

    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...

   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...
