When the earth quakes...

Image
When the earth moves beneath our feet they say it is because Atlas shrugged.? The ground can open up and swallow the people. Earthquake is becoming frequent. Only a week or so back we had a bomb blast followed by earth quake. The govt has already proved it can't do anything to prevent terror attack and now the nature is keeping us reminding that we can't do anything to prevent earthquake. So why worry about something that we can't help..... Never mind we all still love our life dearly ...so why not remain prepared in case earthquake comes knocking without ringing our door bells. I am sure NATURE will not let us down yet...we have lot to work on.. like winning our war against corruption, seeing Kassab swinging on the ropes and other blah blah. So here I go keying in what comes to my head without waiting to pause and hear my heart beats. Delhi just rocked.. .My desk top digital is showing its 6.15 PM and its a Sunday evening on the go...so start on ... with tips

God doesn't but politicians do.!

Secularism is a menace used to create a divide within our democracy. It has become a battelfield for political manipulation and for injecting communalism into the community that left to itself has always remained in harmony. Again using label of minority & majority is a sheer political strategy for garnering vote and engineering discord and disharmony among the people. The upheavals of communal riots and the carnage it lives behind are the toll tax that the common man pays for up keeping the political systems of our democracy that thrive on a divide & rule policy. The plight, anguish and misery of riot victims and their family members are kept alive for decades in the form of judicial inquires. These inquires seldom probe the truth, yet pretend to give hope for punishing the real perpetrators of the carnage. Be it 1984 anti- Sikh riots in Delhi, be it Godhra train burning or be it Gujrat riots of 2002, no truth has ever emerged inspite of long drawn judiciary process and

Mercifully spares.."we the people"

America is not having a jolly good time. It is going through some worst economic & financial crisis. Such crisis however never steals away her priority for the safety of her people. US security officials are increasing their efforts by hour to thwart any possible act of terrorism in advance of the 10th anniversary of September 11th 2001. Post 9/11 America relentlessly went after 'Al Qaeda' and hounded out Osama bin laden and gave him his watery grave. Post 9/11 no terror outfit dared to hit their shores. Naturally therefore Americans have every reason to feel safe in their country. The politicians in our country may perhaps never tire themselves from criticizing America and at the same time they neither may ever tire of their frequent tripping to America for pleasure pain & politics. However the saddest part is that they never bring home any learning from them except for the art of being bay watchers of bold & beautiful. Therefore it will not be an all lie on

Pain of their plain truth..

Patriotism surely will continue to remain the last resort of the scoundrels but not politics. In today's independent India Politics seems to have emerged as the first and the only resort of the scoundrels. Our parliament has overwhelmingly a greater percentage of criminals than the world outside the parliament. How can we therefore hope for leaders to emerge from such parliament to lead us and the country. The politicians are frankly the only tribe enjoying to the hilt the freedom that we won from the British. Over the years they have perfected their art of yarning stories of growth amidist scheming scams, plotting scandals & brewing venom. To-day the entire nation is behind Anna Hazare's movement against corruption. Every one of us are standing up and speaking for Anna & his team and his war against corruption. Initially the politicians grossly under estimated this movement. Now they see in it a serious and devastating threat to their dynasty & t

hooked to the politicians mercy....

We accepted it as part of our living. Gradually we started grumbling about it. We also then tried to cry about it in groups & forums. We then became so frustrated about it that we started making noise. However nothing changed for "we the people" We continued to remain unheard, un responded and ignored. Fretting & fuming we continued to live on... Then in April 2011 a man walks into Delhi's Jantar Mantar and decides to roar in public. His war cry against corruption was no less than the roar of a lion. It was this sound that compelled each of us to stand up and listen. In matter of days this roar echoed through the entire nation. The man behind the roar was 73 year old who went to prove to the world that old age can never be a sign of infirmity unless one willed it to be so. This was Anna Hazzare. In him for the first time in post independence era pan India gets her true people's leader. For the first time ever 'we the people ' are face to

Waiting for our bones...!

India is virtually hit by a tsunami called "people-emotion".Their total outburst against the unstoppable avalanche of political & governmental corruption makes absolute sense. The huge sea of humanity pitching in with Anna Hazare for his war against this corruption is ' verylogical ' and not 'illogical '. Our wafer thin trust on the political system of our democracy has surely reached a point of breaking. Our politicians and our economists generally remain concerned about the upheavals & unrest in Libya,Egypt & other nations.They never fail to show their concern about the economic meltdown in America & Europe. However when it comes to our domestic economy and the magnitude of corruption at home, they instantly get into the game of using statistics and playing monkey and making us ride a crocodile to nowhere. Today the politicians and political parties have made our parliament a den for conspirators, for arm twisting & tongue

our right to say what's wrong...

Not any time before in the history of independent India did we see the bureaucrats , the politicians and the very governance vandalising the integrity and the very trust of the people. Their unbridled power & greed is eating into the very texture of our economy that is supposed to be globally vibrant & investment friendly. They truly have emerged as Modern India's Muhammad Ghaznis' and Muhammad Ghauris'. Be it the power heads at state level, be it the powerful s' at the center, they all keep creating & exploiting opportunities to nurse their greed, grudge and remain obsessed to self grandeur. It is very rare to have an intellectual Prime Minister whose honesty & integrity is totally scratch free. However his lame & limping leadership is tormenting. How can a nation tolerate a leader who neither speaks up nor speaks back. To add to the woes of our democracy we have also a leader of the opposition in the parliament who always remain be
