Not bad Pranab da..!

It is but obvious that no opposition party will come to compliment the government in power for a job well done. What holds for NDA today will remain true for UPA if the roles get reversed tomorrow. The role of the opposition party in this country is simply to counter the move without reading the merits. The only time when in the history of Indian Parliament the entire 524 members were unanimous was when, it came to supporting the bill for raising the emoluments of MPs threefold. It is therefore normal and expected to find the opposition bench criticizing the union budget for 2011-2012.

Aam Aadmi does not know what is deficit financing and how it will hit his means. He is happy that the IT exemption limit has been raised to 1.80 lac from existing 1.60 lac. He is excited to realize that he can at least now visualize an approximative saving of Rs 9500 PA. He is happy that custom duty and excise duty has not been touched. He is optimistic that now he can utilize his 'visualized saving' to plan his EMI for a 250 litter fridge, or use it to plan EMI to buy a 'one ton' AC for his bedroom or start looking for an outright purchase of a computer for his school going child. In short he remains confused with excitement. However he is indifferent about the 1% sop offered in Housing loan. He knows 15 lac of home loan will not be enough for buying even a most "basic structure"in his dreams.He understands that it is Utopian ideals and therefore he knows his "adarsh" I mean 'Utopian ideals' will always remain far far away from what reality" is..!

Now in case he happens to be one turning-an octogenarian he can at least now afford to not 'wish away' that if he retains his hire-able entity , his earning up to 5 lac will be tax free. However some 9 million and plus Aam Aadmi will not be able to share all this excitement because Pranab da in his enthusiasm to give the best to the nation forgot to address the plight of an entity called 'unemployed Indians.' Now to cover this lapse he does have demonstrated that overall India's growth rate stands improved . I totally agree with him. Being an Aam Aadmi and being inherently weak in Economics I continue to believe that growth of the country is not dependent in removing poverty but in reflecting prosperity through a robust medium called "CORRUPTIONS".... and who better than Pranab da can vouch that scam India is all set to exceed the expectations of the "Aam Aadmi". Not bad Pranab da... !

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...
