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' .

In conversation with Bapu....

With 'Sare Jahan Se Achcha' and 'Abide with Me'the Soul-stirring martial tunes and solemn drum beats at the majestic Raisina Hills the "Beating the Retreat" ceremony marked the conclusion of the week long ceremonial functions of India celebrating her 62nd year of Republic.As the illumination lit up the edifices of Imperial India..my thought reached out to that day into the history of independence that finally dropped the curtain on a life called "Gandhi"...the man whose experiment with truth may not have jelled with today but his name has truly become the brand that remain most misused & manipulated both in trade & politics.As I key-in these lines I can read out the conversation that would have transpired between the "soul of Nation" (SON) and "Mahatma Gandhi"(Bapu)....Read on what I read..... SON: Bapu it's me,are you sleeping....? BAPU: How can you ask that...don't you know this day in the year 1948..I was gu...

But 'PAPU' Can "Vote"...'Sala'..!

"Sala".. is a generally accepted slang for both 'hum' the "Hindustani" and 'tum' the "Indian". Together this "HUM TUM" make the "Aam Admi"of the world's largest 'democracy'. This is our "INDIA".I agree with the TV ad that almost says "My India Strongest" in spite of the "Everest" of issues that surround her. Normally in this country the fate of the 'ordinary' people ie 'Aam Admi' always remain woefully harassed, pushed and frustrated through the year. However at the close every 5 years this 'Aam Admi' suddenly become extraordinarily powerful and remain wooed by all 'big,small and sundry' political parties of the country. Yes it is time for General Election. In the coming months for the 15th Lok Sabha, 714 million eligible voters would be 'bee lining' to the ballot boxes across 29 states,6 union territories to elect 543 members . 'Jaago-...

Just about...being a "Father"

A new world greeted them with smile and happiness when they... "Just met" and soon for them the wedding bells rang... Now, they are happily lost in their own world & together are learning to set- up a 'Home’ of their own... away from what was a home for them a little earlier in the year....That's "his" daughter & "his" son in-law. ..Being very adorable, the house has become little less chirpy after her moving out….. …."He" now does feel the boredom...but will never show it off... Because "he" is the father ...and expected to put on a stern face & always remain a 'matter of fact' person..... He is all set to explore & build-up a learning curve that may see him well in life in about a couple of years from now. After his graduation he may probably start living away from home in a distant land in pursuit of excellence...That's "His" son Being the darling of the house, "he" is...
