A Devil's own....City?

-





Mythology is a body of myth and teachings that revolve around Rakshasa and Assuras The effigy of Ravana,(the rakshasa) that we  burn religiously every year at the Ramlila grounds is our way keeping alive our belief that good will always triumph over evils. However the futility of our belief is that today evils have totally spread their wings and yet we keep simmering in our hope that someday the good will cut the wings of  the soaring evil...

We are  not blissfully anonymous to the rotting sate of affairs of a state that once we blissfully believed to be vibrant and hearty. We are very much annoyed about the city turning devilish. We are quite vociferousness about it, yet we pretend to remain as helpless as those little children who  remain devoured and devastated almost every day at every nook and corner of this city just for being born a  GIRL...

We also remain majorly guilty of these heinous crime of rapes in the city  because it is we who believed and voted a CM who because of her  sinus pretends to not able to smell the rotten rats in her cabinets.  It is we who thought intellectuals can be great leaders and installed a PM who remains practically  mute leading a morn Cabinet. It is we who continue in believing that our  politicians and social crusaders are men and women of substance without realizing that they are a parliament of owls who believe in goring and maiming Democracy  to keep alive their lust for power and arrogance.

We may be great fault finders  but we are not any less guilty ourselves Our greatest guilt is we walk and run around the city like Gandhi's  "3 Monkeys" ....Mouth shut Eyes shut and Ears shut...taking all the bull shits from the police, politicians and perverts. SHAME ON US... for calling our city "Dildaar Delhi".and SHAME ON US for hiding behind the candle lights and letting our city  become a Devil's  own City... !

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

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
