OHMy Money!!!


India is running 64 and still she is being addressed as 'young nation'. I am just running 62 and my 'young nation' is all in hurry to hand me a "life term achievement award" by prefixing senior citizen to my name.

The job market now has suddenly started overlooking my professional expertise and becoming more fussy about my being 62. Well anyway I don't pity myself for being around all the wonderful years and still remain all excited going on white water river rafting and enjoying MTV bouts. I am happy taking those big strides and large leaps growing my wisdom. Anyway I am not here to win my war for "Cheeni Kum" movement. I am here for waring my reasons for war against corruption.

I do support & believe in "War against corruption" that's why I allowed myself to soak away in the sun at Jantar mantar. However now when I am reading the clauses of draft writing of the Lok Pal bill , I am not very sure if this war is anything worth sweating for.

Corruption is a legacy that we no more can let go. How many of us can boast of getting the civic agencies to resolve our issues without getting some load off our purse. How many of us were lucky to put our wards into engineering and medical colleges without saying yes to capitation fees. I am sure we all would have paid for the building fund when for the first time our children stepped in for schooling.

No projects for Roads, fly overs, sub ways & over bridges could have come through without hitting the road block called the escalation clause. The clause that virtually mine gold for the project owners and their associates

Our corporate may boast of ethics committee to prevent bribing govt agencies for getting the work done. However it never disapproves paying the same in form of consultancy and get the task achieved.

Give & take are norms of healthy living. Let us therefore not shy away accepting the fact that it is money and money alone that can win us our war against non performing bodies & institutions.

'War against corruption' believe me is a political movement so let us leave it to the politicians. We are better off living our life without dribbling our energy for a cause that is too Utopian... By the way I am sure we won't turn an atheist if we forget to say Oh my God and start yelling
OHMY Money!!!

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 ...

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...
