Being pessimist..?

-



The ordinary people spread across 28 states and seven union territories do definitely go through some linguistic & cultural pressure in communicating. However such pressures doesn't change the way they fight to cope up with their everyday struggles for existence.

They continue to walk their life, dreaming their hope and drumming their little happiness celebrating festivals and rejoicing their hypocrisy by placing politicians and god men on the pedestals of the very creators.

Tomorrow my city Delhi will be ready for Ram Dev Baba's grandeur 'hunger strike', splurging money power and the showmanship of hypocrisy. The venue "Ramlila ground" which has been for ages trying to burn the effigy of "Ravana"will once again fail to stop of the birth of yet another political movement that promises to hoodwink the people almost the way "Ravana"
in "Ramayana" took away Sita..

Though being one among the ordinary, I don't find it extraordinary to pose the following questions on the eve of "Tomorrow".... and as usual to nobody in particular ....

Will the political war against corruption & black money have any impact in cleaning my city of the stinking air that's emitted from tonnes & tonnes of garbage littered around the colonies,Vihars & Nagars where we live...?

Will deputing the entire city's police force to the Ramlila ground make any difference to the daily 'speeding 'rape & crime in the city. ?

Will installing thousands of AC's and coolers at the Ramlila ground, bring any relief to the colonies,Vihars & Nagars which remain enduring erratic power supply and the sweltering heat of June...?

When will 'we' the ordinary people realise that no war against corruption & black money will win us our war against, littering garbage, vanishing law & order & a 'rope walking' inflation..

Left to me I would prefer 'Ram Dev Baba' to not allow to pollute his pristine "Patanjali Yogpeeth'" by self- engineering his stumble into politics of power. Let him keep the masses fit & fighting through his enriching yoga 'Asans& Pranayams. I am sure that will allow "we the people" to buckle down energized to win our day to day battles of surviving with dignity & pride..... Now that's what I call being pessimist..?

    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 .

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...

   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...
