A bug..called ."mamta-.di"!

-


In India today Politics  has not only become too chaotic and unpredictable, it has also become the vital  culprit  in de-railing the train of  reforms and progress. Just for political sake much needed economic and social reforms in the country are being thrown off the track. Taking steam off the growth engine has become a norm with political leaders.This is a clear indicator that in this country politicians will always thrive and drain the economy for the sake of politics and at the cost progress and reforms.

I have always held West Bengal as the mecca of most learned and forward looking intelligentsia. It is therefore more saddening  to see people of Bengal choosing a leadership which believes
a) Every crime and rape in the state is a conspiracy against the state
b)  Reading English Daily is being anti-social
c)  Caricaturing of political leaders is  belittling gods
d)  Studying  Karl Marx  is being anti democratic
e)  Industrialization is a crime against poverty

 FDI in Retail if comes true,it can generate employment, nourish the purchasing power of the farmers as well  prevent adulteration of  grains, cereals and food stuff. FDI is a crucial life saving drug  for our ICU ridden Economy. If administrated well, we can see our Economy walking out from the  ICU  on her own  feet hail and hearty. The world today  has become a global village where India is seen as the most vibrant destination for trade and commerce. In  some political circle  FDI  is being seen as a  gateway for  re-launching East India Company. This is a 100% myth.Our politicians have mastered the art of selling such myths to the poor, ignorant s  and illiterates because the politicians know that it is people's illiteracy that nourishes and energies their wealth creation goals.

For some strange reasons I feel sad that West Bengal of today  is no more the 'Bengal which used to think today,what India thinks tomorrow'. Also for some more strange reasons I feel there is something disastrously wrong in the coding of India's national political program . Is it because of a bug..called "mamta-di..!

I am not sure on the FDI for retail but yeah it can't be sadder to see how politicians openly resort to blackmailing on numbers.

On an altogether different note, why this Pink template Bala Sir.. kind of glaring to the eye. Hope you do something about it.. :)

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

Who will win BIHAR .. 'Let the last Vote get counted'

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
