One thing is certain, when we play the world cup finals, it will not be against Pakistan. Therefore winning will never matter to us as much as it will matter to us tomorrow. Today & tomorrow every Indian through out the world will be fervently praying for the "Men in Blue" to win the semi-finals at Mohali. When playing against Pakistan cricket for us becomes an emotional re-play. We did feel with time the hurt of partition will heal. However the 26/11 episode has left us all in a state of uncontrollable emotional turmoil that we will never be able to get over with. For our politicians and national leaders Mohali semi-finals may remain an opportunity to play political diplomacy. Knowing the politicians we do can fear the extent to which they can fall to meet their political agenda. However we the Aaam Aadmi will go all out to cheer & support to the hilt our "Men in Blue" Tomorrow we may start our day chewing our nails in anxiety but one thing is

We as a society in general remain unconcerned about the life and plight of woman in this country. Our attitude towards woman has hardly made any markable change. Be it a mother, be it a daughter, be it a sister, be it a wife, we still remain prejudiced about equal rights. There is still a long way to cover before we see ourselves giving them their right to be their own self. We talk of woman's safety, yet when a woman remains engulfed in flames for not bringing dowry we simply become bystanders watching the bizarre. When she is raped and torched in the crowded streets, all that we do is to show our annoyance over the disgusting state of law & order. Neither as individuals nor as members of so called 'sane society' we ever try to curb our insane behavior and attitude towards woman. However we still have the cheeks enough to tom tom our concerns for the safety of woman. We are a society of hypocrites who believe in setting aside a day out of the 365

When the team is on sticky wickets and the players are batting on a bouncy pitch, holding on to the wickets and pitching for time becomes crucial. Not going for runs doesn't matter. If your team's performance score card is a story of miss fielding, loose deliveries, it is time for the captain to step in to play the captain's innings. Blaming the 2G scam as evils of collision politics,the PM attempted to cover drive his responsibility. As a consequence the entire winter session of the parliament became a colossal waste of tax payers money. However the eventual setting up of JPC was simply an act of demonstrating his back foot drive to save the govt getting flicked up at slips This has averted the Budget session from being a match abandoned. We are yet to know if the on-going budget session will end up being technically a match drawn or face saved. However for sure we now know that the captain is now on the striking end Of late and at last our judiciary seems

It is but obvious that no opposition party will come to compliment the government in power for a job well done. What holds for NDA today will remain true for UPA if the roles get reversed tomorrow. The role of the opposition party in this country is simply to counter the move without reading the merits. The only time when in the history of Indian Parliament the entire 524 members were unanimous was when, it came to supporting the bill for raising the emoluments of MPs threefold. It is therefore normal and expected to find the opposition bench criticizing the union budget for 2011-2012. Aam Aadmi does not know what is deficit financing and how it will hit his means. He is happy that the IT exemption limit has been raised to 1.80 lac from existing 1.60 lac. He is excited to realize that he can at least now visualize an approximative saving of Rs 9500 PA. He is happy that custom duty and excise duty has not been touched. He is optimistic that now he can utilize his 'v

I am a law abiding Indian citizen. To me my national flag is not just a face mask worn at the time of world cup. For me my national anthem is much more than the martial tune 'sare jahan se acha'. Casting my vote is both my right and my responsibility. By the way I come from a society that is more known for its spending power than its quality of ever remaining a mute spectator.The credit for this goes to none other than the ex-president of America...Mr.Bush... Democracy seems to have given our politicians the fundamental freedom to use their political wisdom to unleash scams and corruptions to ensure wealth creation for self & the party. Instead of accounting for facts they remain all bent for cremating creditability. The ruling party's stubbornness in not allowing forming a joint parliamentary committee(JPC) to probe scams is an ample proof that they neither want the Pandora's box opened, nor they want to betray the tons of skeletons crowding their cu

"Sare Jahan se achaa hindustan hamara.......". The song reeks of patriotism,still I love this song a great deal. Perhaps my love for my Hindustan continues to remain unconditional... In my own Hindustan I remain harassed and frustrated by the cost of living and my every day struggle in meeting the needs and necessities of my family. Many a times my body & mind boils in unrest but I keep the lid shut.I know when my lid will burst it will only see me strewn around, leaving behind a family in plight and turmoil. From what I say,I don't mean I am a coward because I am simply not a coward... I fight for my rights everyday with the different governmental and municipal bodies. I do protest loudly whenever I am not able to take the soaring inflations & the all around chaotic attitudes in my stride. I do join those frequent candle march processions called up by NGOS in protest of some or other terrorist attacks in the country. I don't blink an eye lid when

When Shashi Tharoor in good humor used the term "cattle" to refer the common Indian all the political parties and politicians were furious and got busy giving statements to the press & the media condemning the reference. Of course these were as symbolic as paying homage to Mahatma Gandhi at the Raj ghat... Now when the Indian students are being "Radio tagged" at the US universities none of the politicians and their parties seem to be giving any teeth in their condemning the Americans for their deplorable actions as well their attitude of arrogance towards Indians. The government also is simply doing nothing beyond giving official statement, which are nothing but diplomatic rituals. Even the Indians living in America who today by their sheer numbers exercise unprecedented political influence in American politics remain deep in their slumber. Why we as a nation always remain overboard in our being influenced by everything about America& Americans..? Whe
