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... !

MY MODISTORY

  I am one among 900  million plus    "nuts and bolts" of our  Democracy , who   become "faceless" faces in the crowd after  every 5 years.  Year 2014 election was in every sense historic It was beyond doubt a landslide victory for BJP and the beginning of  the so called "MODI" Raj  In year 2014 my reason and my josh for  casting my vote for  BJP was "Modi". His speeches were "sparkling confidence" that set ablaze the confidence of  the nation that was trying to rise up from the cesspool of corruption   Looking back now after 11 years I realise that year 2014 was also  the beginning of era called   "Political Branding" that would  covert  a "politician" into a larger than life  "Mega Leader" Perhaps that is the reason that today in politics "anti-incumbency" does not matter at all . Here are  in brief  a Common man's  bunch of thoughts on "Modi Story". These ...

CLARITY IN CHAOS

  The Bhagavad Gita is a living scripture  universally relevant  today as it was 5000 years ago in the battlefield of Kurukshetra. It is a divine conversation that took place in the battlefield of Kurukshetra  between two best  friends, Lord Krishna the Charioteer and Arjuna the warrior.  'Bhagavad Gita' is an integral part of of Indian mythology  I have always believed mythology is not for everyone including me.  So when my friend, the author of the book  "Understanding Bhagavad Gita", gave me a  copy to review , I was not very comfortable.  I like  'Arjuna'  started looking for excuses . However one day not very soon , "The Recipe For A Better Life " the part of the title  hooked me into reading it The author has covered the essence of 'Gita' inside the  160 pages, through   eighteen Chapters.  Every chapter has an "Introduction", a "Summary" and a "Reflection" The simplicity of his writing gives...
