Finally the SPELL is all set to END..!

                                                          The way our Country is being run down by  our National Political  leadership  has made our  Democracy the  proprietary right of one single family and  not the  prerogative of the people. This speaks volumes about a nation  that continues to remain influenced by the name GANDHI a factor that has lost its relevance to modern day politicking, At the point of time when India won her Freedom, the Nation bowed to the wishes of Gandhiji thus making Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru  the first Prime Minister of the Independent India.  Jawahar Lal Nehru's Book "Discovery of India" will always  remain close to our hearts but  the truth of his experiments with name 'Gandhi'  will continue to remain a baffling mystery.  A India where the bulk of the population is illiterate and  live in abject  poverty the name Gandhi and Congress evoke a sense of total patriotism and a total  re-call of martyrdom of a selfless soul.

Incidentally not an intelligent Politics...

                                                    In spite of being a  political newbie he was able to send shock waves into the camps of veteran political parties. Overnight he became the fear factor for both Congress and the BJP. This bureaucrat turned social activist turned politician took  no time in becoming the   political  darling of the people of Delhi. The frustrated people of Delhi who had almost decided to press the NOTA button in the upcoming state elections saw themselves jubilantly pressing away the 'Broom' button. The outcome of the Delhi State Assembly  Polls saw Sheela Dikshit  and the  Congress bite the bullet and the BJP  shelved and  shocked. It was a  historical emergence of a party that matched the mood and mannerism of the ordinary people.Truly this Party brought to the Delhi's Political scene a culture that redefined the importance of being an Aam Admi.  Every one from Auto drivers, to man on the street, from Middle Class family to the inte

HOPE & 'HAMARI' "AAP KI TEAM"

In Cricket  winning the toss  and the condition of the pitch may hold some significance in  wining the match. Cricket  may be infested with politics but politics is not cricket.In cricket  22 yds rectangular ground is called the pitch. But the ground reality in politics is that here  people are the pitch and they are not yards but numbers that cross billion mark and  can also turn desperate at times It was the desperation of the people in Delhi that created the AAM ADAMI wave which  eventually blew the wind off the Congress and the BJP. Now that Congress has agreed to disagree with BJP and have allowed the 28 seater AAP to carry the burden of governing Delhi let us aasume hypothetically for  coming five years . Arrivind Kejeriwal and his team have  been tasked to bat, it is worth our vote to keep a  note on how they face the short pitch and political bouncers. With congress umpiring the match, the BJP is bound to go all out looking for match fixing.  The coming day

'HOPE' is the secret of our Energy...

Never thought I will not be able to complete  the Book that I started writing Never thought I will not be able to get rid of my beer belly.Never thought I will not be able to finish all those "Things to Do" that I so willingly listed in the begining of 2013. In short I never thought I will not be  disappointed by my non achievements and not meeting the expectations that I had from a year that began way back in January 2013.I always thought I had all the time in life and that perhaps always made me put off doing things and meet the dead lines. Now that the curtains are drawn on year 2013,I did realize like every year in the past that time and tide  waits for none. In spite of not being an achiever, I feel and remain energetic and enthused about life because I have on my side the thing called 'HOPE' that I trust will always carry me through all my failures and one day lead me to my destination called SUCCESS. I have no reason to not believe that DAY will be one

He is the " Count" of the Common Man. is that so..?

Probably as I write this, the BJP would be either  a touch away from gaining a simple majority for forming the Govt or  Delhi getting ready for the President's rule. Anyway that's besides the point. This election has all the right reasons to be historical not because Congress got routed nor because BJP is all set to be back after 15 years. This election has come to become historical because of Aam Admi, the party which came into being just a year back and able to vanquish the 15 years  of vanity of Congress as well  making the  BJP  almost miss the 'Bus'.. Arrivind Kejeriwal a newbee on the political turf, succeeded  in delivering the  much needed lesson to Delhi's veteran  political Parties. For this  political rookie it is a phenomenal success  to  be able  to keep the  the mighty  political veterans  breathless and  running  for their vote. Well done Aam Admi. You  have  proved   that Politics in India which is generally  a family  inheritance can

I bet...."WE" made the difference...

On Wednesday Delhi's  habitually indifferent electorate turned out in droves.to cast their vote.The  elites of Delhi drove down to the respective  polling booths and the  Mango people made it on foot to their designated polling booths. For this city of  Tombs and Minarets, yesterday's 74% turnout was quite monumental. This speaks volumes about betrayed sentiments and frayed angers of the people pulped up by the indifference and arrogance of governance. Where City's civic agencies bleed  corruption, there the city's police force suffer the chronic dis-availability  of  able and refined  policing  to check  the speeding menace of  crime,rape and juvenile delinquency. The time was just right enough for the people of Delhi to use their Democratic  right presumably to  say enough is enough.... Incidentally the new born Aam Admi party rising up to phenomenal popularity has helped the people of Delhi to pin for a brand new alternative other than the BJP. However it will

The "WEDNESDAY WAIT"....

Had they willed, 15  years were  simply not less enough to make the city clean and comfortable for the people  to walk its  roads and lanes  without having to bear the stench , foul plays and road rages that   has now become the part of the common mans daily doze of ordeals. They  logged bulk of their  time in trouble shooting and dishing out excuses for their  non performances that were  hand fed and non palatable.... Their model of governance has always been  based  on the theorem that enriching the insiders and the cronies always  pays..and it surely has proved to have paid them off well beyond the arithmetic of  common man's imaginations.. The " Wednesday Wait"  will let us know  if they pay the price  and  turn "History" or they carry on and create History ...? This city if not practically,at least   literately is  their home turf .They are home spun community. Had they any time willed to  truly demonstrate the strength of unity and honesty in pull
