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... !

    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. We all  grew up in cantonment environment, hopping almost every 2 years  from one Cantonment to the other  Like from Allahabad’s Draupadi Ghat we came to Calcutta’s Fort William and  then to  Bangalore Cantonment  Bangalore was the only city where we  remained stationed for almost 5 years before getting  shifted to Delhi Cantonment in 1961, 4th of July to be precis It was the year 1959-60 and I was about 10 years old  studying in the 6th form in the Army’s  Regimental school . Around this time my  father decided to put me into “King George Military School” .This  was a ‘day’ Boarding School exclusively for Defence personnels . It is now called “Rashtriya Military School”. There was an aptitude test which I cleared but failed the written test. I was happy, a...

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...

The Blessed Curse "Nostalgic flashes" !

   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...
