saddi "Navi Dili" aho ji..!

That was a time when one could have never imagined 'St Stephens college' becoming a co-ed college,nor 'LSR' opening its gates for boys. Who could have thought 'Khalasa college' getting shifted to be near 'Miranda House' and 'Venketeswara college' becoming one of the elite colleges of DU.I never thought 'Dhaula Kuan' &'Safdurjung' roundabouts and 'Moolchand crossing' would one day get transformed to be one of the most stylish free ways of the country. Who ever knew then that one could commute from'Shahdara' to'Kashmiri Gate'in'30'minutes flat in the AC comfort of'DelhiMetro' Well Delhi has come a long way from being looked up as one 'big village' and a Babus own city to become a 'hip hop and happening' Mega city. 'Saddi Dili' is today on the 'fast track' of transforming into a world class city that may even beat ' 'San Francisco'and 'London...

"Hindustan Bol Raha Hai"!

Aam admi today continues to remain so frustrated and pissed up with a "Hindustan" jo dik raha hai"!..that he hardly finds any truth in "Hindustan jo Bol Raha Hai"!.This has absolutely nothing to do with a TV ad with almost a similar title where we see the youth icon 'Deepika Padukone' dancing from one shot to the other on a vigorous brand building exercise for BSNL. Coming back to Aam admi and his frustrations,let me buzz over his latest irk..in Delhi,the 'epicentre' of power and the venue of the upcoming "commonwealth Games". Caving roads & buildings,collapsing flyovers,cracking & gaping 'BRT' corridors, over flowing drains,flooding underpasses,derailing "Metros" are some few 'issues' in the parcel of civic "issues" that the Aam admi is enduring as he travels around the city everyday straining his limbs and patience through chaotic traffic jams and blinking traffic lights. However on the ot...

"Kapil Sibal" aur "10 ka dum"....!

Had I said 'Salu's 10 ka dum'..it would have an instant connect. Anyway I am in no mood to strain my 'gray cells' over the reality shows. Let me instead carry on with Mr.Kapil Sibal's rejuvenation program on "Children,Education,Board". Does this title sound as weird a title....as "Jinnah,India Partition"...? Never mind.!...let me for the moment figure out "10" and tension...! We all know that a normal child and the majority of them generally get into a serious study pattern only when there is a 'Board Exam' on the head. Now by doing away with 'Board Exam' for 10th class children,it will be a "moja hi moja" time for the 10th class children for 2 years at a stretch. Practically speaking Mr.Kail Sibal and his team are happy in achieving a scheme of things that does't ease pressure but postpone it to re-surface with vengeance after a lull of 2 years. With no Board exam in the 10th, the children generally w...

Neighbour's 'enemy' owners 'pride'

I don't think it's worth exchanging anymore the 'pak' greetings of "Assallam alaikum"(May peace be upon you)and "Waalaikum assalaam"(And peace also be upon you) with our neighbouring country.I think it is time our political leaders and parties shed their political approach in dealing with the deadly menace called terrorism..that has been allowed to breed and breath freely in the "neighbourhood". Being an aam admi I don't care if I am making a politically incorrect expression. It is my life and my belongings that always remains at highest stake & risk every time there is a terrorist attack. This is an open fact that no politician can dispute be it a 'Jinnah' fan or a'Jassu' admirer or the political opportunists themselves. A terrorist attack on our 'Parliament may have proved a 'flop show' but such attacks on streets of Mumbai,Delhi & other states..has always taken an uncountable toll of 'aam admi...

"Jinnah" jaise koi nahi..!

Do you think I should have said "Jaswant jaise koi nahi"..for the title of this post. Looking at the marketing prospect of the book "Jinnah":India-Partition-Independence" I am sure even Mr Jaswant Singh would have agreed with me on "Jinnah" jaise koi nahi". Let us get back to Mr.Jinnah. Any one who has gone through the recorded history of India's Independence at the national Archives of India would agree with me that Mr.Jinnah was no where near to being "Pak" on his ideas of being "SECULAR". Had that been so.! there never would have been today a country called "Pakistan". And our government will not have been investing the "tax payer's" money so heavily on the security of our politicians. Well let us not fight with our "conscience" over something that happened 62 years ago. Better still let us leave this fight to our political leaders,who anyway don't wear their "conscience"...

"Kaminey"..!

Being a gentleman of sorts,I am never able to use "gali galoch".......like using the phrase "kutte,Kaminey" while venting my frustration and anger on someone.Sometimes I feel it could be this reason for my not being able to cultivate a circle of friends, who would always find an excuse to tell me.. Boss! "Aap kaho Toh Dikha De", In "kutto kamino ko", "Ham Hai Kya Cheez" ..! Actually these are the 'phrases' that gives you both a "muscular & a popular" image in your locality & in the neighbour hood. I very often get into arguments with 'auto wallas' for over charging. However when they start shouting & their 'fist' movements start looking menacing, I instead of matching their voice, start murmuring ...... "Kutto, Kamino, Mey Tum Logo Ko Dekh Lunga"..! However I also make sure that even my 'murmur' is hardly audible to anybody other than myself. I think probably it is this rea...

Love Aaj Kal...!

Our political Leaders are very much in 'love' with the 'Aam Aadmi'.They can go on and on talking about the 'Aam Aadmi'. They are so passionate about the 'Aam Aadmi' that at times they even choke while speaking about Aam Aadmi's a "tryst with destiny". Most of us generally associate 'Love Story' with saga of "Laila Majnu" and the classic tragedy of Romeo&Juliet. So when our 'Political leaders' talk about their unending love for 'Aam Aadmi'....it is confusing and sounds crazy.You bet it is 'different.'..! Let us now very quickly go over a few of the 'reasons' for our political leaders' "Love" for "Aam Aadmi". When an 'Aam Aadmi' elects him to 'Power'..there comes an instant transformation in him......!!!! His living status gets elevated.Fame,power and Money makes him arrogant.He gradually becomes inaccessible to 'Aam Aadmis' welfare and well ...
