Making "Perhaps" a "Possibility" !



It was not people's need, it was politician's greed that saw India being partitioned on the basis of religion that fell pray to politician's ambitions. No prayers thereafter could halt one of the world's gruesome genocide that consumed people not  politicians. If this nation had not succumbed to politician's lust, perhaps today our neighborhood would not have turned  into a breeding ground for ' terrorism' .Perhaps then this nation  would have had almost a 'no war' record post the British Raj. More importantly perhaps Kashmir would have continued to remain our  divine state and not have become a devastated matter of discord.  It would be more appropriate to mark 15th of August as the day when this country decided to wash away people's desire and succumb to political greed. What happened then in 1947  was, beginning of the History of the Nation that was axed and hacked for political convenience. This nation today at her 67th year of partition remains consumed by communalism, Qutaism ,Regionalism  besides the omnipresence of Scams and Corruption speak loud about this world'd largest democracy that we call India,Bharat,Hindustan

Our Democracy  talk of people's power but never have addressed  people's need .It showcases liberty but refuses  to address failures.It promises secularism but unleashes communal ism. It huddles with majority but speaks for minority. Democracy in this country has simply become the  brand ambassador for "Dynastiscism" In this country it is the lineage of birth and family that creates Political Leadership, not courage vision and ability.

 I don't believe that India  at 67 is too young to not realize that she stands politically crippled, morally marooned and economically devastated .But being  an Indian "Heart and Soul", perhaps  like rest of India I also believe to  stand by the statement that says.. "No matter what we are going through,there is a light at the end of the tunnel for my country ,my India". Any  change in National leadership may perhaps consider   in keeping  the well being of 1.241 billion Indians as the first priority of the govt.. Let us hope 2014 will find us making this  "perhaps''  a "possibility"!

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...
