Seedhi Baat, No Bakwaas..!

"No "Terrorist" should be caught alive and given the luxury a court trial for fair justice,instead they should be "shot dead" instantly as and when they are caught".The lines above remain a precise 'reflection' of a 'common man's' common sense. However this will amount to a most "atrocious disrespect" to our judiciary system. Politically speaking, we trust our "judiciary" because it believes in dragging a case to 'eternity', if that helps in delivering "justice".
"When ever there is is a terrorist attack,we immediately start pointing our fingers at our neighbouring countries,instead of "instantly" going into action by rounding up all big ,small and sundry politicians,putting them in a container and then throwing the 'container' into the Arabian sea". This may again sound the "voice" of a 'common man's' common sense. However 'constitutionally' speaking it will amount to infringement of "fundamental rights" of the 'politicians'. After all the "politicians" are our elected representatives under a system called "democracy".
Ajmal Kassab's latest statement to the court where he said and I quote..

"I have not killed the slain police officers Hemant Karkare, Vijay Salaskar and Kamte. Also I was not present at the Chatrapati Shivaji Terminus or the Cama Hospital- two places where I am alleged to have fired shots at the police and general public."
Now it will be nothing short of a "Sadistic behavior", if I further attempt to re-produce 'Kassab's' complete statement to the Court.
Anyways when I attempt to read about the "Kassab trial", it somehow reminds me of an 'ad film'...where there are 3 characters ,besides a dog called "Killer" and a 'carom board'.
Character(1) is seen pampering the "Killer", character(2)is seen walking away with a 'beautiful lady'(the character 3) for a game of carom board.? Now if I say that character(1)represents our 'security system', Character (2) our "politicians",Character (3)the "vote bank" and make 'Kassab' represent the dog "Killer" ,it definitely would sound funny...may be that's why I would prefer to call this" height of a common man's common sense or would you better prefer to say "Seedhi Baat, No Bakwaas"..!

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-...

My expiriment with "TRUTH"..

It was today but the year was 1981 and the day was probably a Saturday. I was there on the ceremonial stretch of "Raj path".There were about 4 lac people like me "all excited", getting ready for the "action shot" for Richard Atendbrough's film "GANDHI". The scene was Gandhiji's "funeral procession".I was wearing white khadi "Pajama & Kurta" which I bought from Khadi gram udyog at 'Regal building the previous evening. This was the recommended "dress code" for the shoot. Probably I never thought then that I was about to be part of a "live action crowd" of this magnitude that will never again be filmed. Soon the heavy camera's parked on the cranes started rolling. I lost the count of how many times those giant like cameras zoomed in and zoomed out of me. I was simply emotionally charged walking the stretch shouting "Vande Matram","Mahatma Gandhi" "AmarRahe"...
