Holy cow!


I have no religion. In fact I don't know what is GOD or who is the creator. When I speak I don't make any sound of music.  I can't speak so  my pain and my agony goes unheard and unattended. I don't  understand the politics that you make of my life. I remember I was once upon  a time  the political  symbol for your oldest political party called Congress

 Of late I have become synonymous to a religion you call Hindutva. I now remain  patronised by a  band of bandits that you call "saffron Brigade". You have made me  the tale of two sects , one  that loves to see me on their dinning table and the other who believes in using my name to sniff  away innocent lives .You have made me the cause of great intolerance.This is so saddening, since by nature I am the least of "intolerance". I remain both in life and death a  source of your protein. I have horns yet I don't honk and add on to your noise pollution.  I have come to realize I rather live in a farm in the middle of nowhere rather than become  a butcher's delight or  a cause to sniffing away innocent human lives. Sadly I have no control over my life, except that I can wag my tail to express my gratitude. I am what you call the Holy COW!

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-...
