Walk talk and live our fear

-


The UPA & NDA along with tattered group of other political bodies remain busy using Democracy and vote banking for their own individual party interest. Neither at her youth nor in her past 60s, our Democracy has ever delivered any national or regional leadership that could rise up from party and politics to fight elements that become a threat to the very integrity and security of the nation. This failure of our democracy has made terrorism a vicious monster that remains fed and pampered for money,power and lust.The perception that terrorism is an off shoot of a religion and a faith is simply a manifestation of vested political interests.

Mumbai has become a preferred target for terrorist attacks.Every one of us believed that Post 26/11, politicians and political parties, will help and work alongside regional and central govt agencies to prevent and save Mumbai from terrorist and terrorism. The last week terror attack that left 21 people killed and many orphaned is the bloody evidence of betrayal of our belief.

Post every terror attack our national TV channels will get to their Air conditioned studios few political personalities along with some highbrow-ed ex civil servants, and to this team they will add few botoxed faces from Bollywood and kick start a mambo jumbo debate on the "whys & what abouts" on terrorism. These shows are nothing more than a 'sign off' media byte of a bloody massacre that will remain archived as reference material for future use .

It is not that we cannot achieve a total annihilation of Terrorism. We have no dearth for resources be it youthful human resources or financial resources. How can funding be an issue in a country where Himalayan size of scams keep surfacing? So all that we need is political will and political unity to initiate process to launch a total war against terrorism.

We don't know how many more terror attacks we will have to endure and survive to see all the political parties in this country holding hands for a fight to finish terror and terrorism..? However the increasing frequency in terror attack has made us to learn...... to walk talk and live our fear.

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...
