Politics of disrobing 'Draupadi'




We are neither perplexed nor paranoid   by the  political  and  economic upheaval that this great country  is going through. Our Republic may turn 'Banana' so what we are still happy to slip away into our own dreams unlimited. That's what we are...'the mango people'... ripened in poverty , soaked in inflation the only  remains of a democracy that is turning rogue and repulsive with every rising 'son'...

Elections are  fast becoming a failure of faith and a mandate of empty words and broken trust. Collusion politics collude not for reforms but for rupturing  regional and religious sentiments.The political philosophy  remains heavily contaminated. As a nation we have seriously run out of thought leadership.

How long should we keep defending our lack of initiative for  growth and developments. Simply because we insist that at 63 we are young, cannot absolve us from the guilt of under achieving growth and undermining our potentials.It is time we should have become an emerged economy and not remain an emerging economy.

Be it business, be it bureaucracy, be it politics or be it religion  a cause and a case for  corruption will always exist.We can't deny that corruption has become the very nut and the bolt of our society. Let us not therefore  make  the  mistake of construing that  a war call against corruption,will annihilate corruption from the society.

 In a country  where all the seasoned politicians and political parties are busy conspiring and conning , the emergence of a man called Arrvind Kejeriwal  is  very welcome. I  heartily endorse his spirited entry into politics. However when there are more just and serious national issues, why he chose corruption as a subject for a political entry is becoming a....?

Corruption is a complex and a crafted subject. Here over reliance of direct as well circumstantial evidences are politically debatable and therefore any fire from the hip and holster are  likely to re-bound without warning. It is  not the right vehicle to ride on for a political intern such as Arrivind Kejeriwal. Further since he is also an intellectual and  well read, I thought he would  know that in this country exposing  corruption, one after the other is as futile as politics of disrobing 'Draupadi' .

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...

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 ...

A bitten bit of my past !!

    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 . Around this time my  father decided to put me into “King George Military School” .This  was a ‘day’ Boarding School exclusively for Defence personnels . It is now called “Rashtriya Military School”. There was an aptitude test which I cleared but failed the written test. I was happy, a...
