Mr.PM it's time to play a Captain's knock..!

-

When the team is on sticky wickets and the players are batting on a bouncy pitch, holding on to the wickets and pitching for time becomes crucial. Not going for runs doesn't matter. If your team's performance score card is a story of miss fielding, loose deliveries, it is time for the captain to step in to play the captain's innings.

Blaming the 2G scam as evils of collision politics,the PM attempted to cover drive his responsibility. As a consequence the entire winter session of the parliament became a colossal waste of tax payers money. However the eventual setting up of JPC was simply an act of demonstrating his back foot drive to save the govt getting flicked up at slips This has averted the Budget session from being a match abandoned. We are yet to know if the on-going budget session will end up being technically a match drawn or face saved. However for sure we now know that the captain is now on the striking end

Of late and at last our judiciary seems to be waking up to its responsibility and this certainly seeing the UPA govt running helter skelter for cover. Our gentleman PM these days therefore remains more caught in doing fire drills, than drilling sense and discipline into the team UPA. He is once again seen taking the stance to avoid technically a follow-on by going on back foot to stop the ball short off the wicket. This time he is facing the opposition's delivery on Supreme court's verdict on PJ Thomas. The captain once again is forced to take the striker's end

To stake your claim to the cricketing world cup, you need to keep bettering your best without pause and break.. Also so in the cricketing series of politics you cannot keep running between the wickets by cover driving scams & corruption charges. Time has come to go out on the front foot and hit away corruptions and scams off the boundary lines. Mr. PM it's time to play a captain's knock..!

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
