Amul Walk for buttery "democracy"



Like 'Dalda' is synonyms to 'ghee', "Amul" remains a synonyms to 'butter'. In Indian politics ghee is referred in context of instigating people for political gains and butter is referred to sweet talking the people again for political gains.Well ghee or butter politically the gain always remain an'advantage' to party & politics and a "five set" straight defeat for the people & democracy. The political honesty in this country has reached its lowest ebb.

The people have painfully realized that a clean and an honest prime Minister is a rudendent force if he cannot prevail over the bunch of free flowing scams-esters in his team. The UPA government may be in the verge of dismantling . A mid term election may after all not remain a far fetched notion. However what is fearful is that we have no political party to turn to for restoring our optimism. When we look around the Kurukshetra of politics, all that we see are bunch of disintegrated and unmanned political parties busy enacting their own ' in house' 'Mahabharta'.

However vehemently we may hate the Congress, we should know that they will continue to be in this country a flagship of democracy. We may remain vocal about evils of dynastic democracy even though we know it is here to stay.

In the prevailing situation Rahul Gandhi's "padyatra" in UP cannot be ridiculed. Who knows in coming years it may prove a fresh breather from the obnoxious and decaying politics of the veterans. So let us as well put our hate on the back burner and hope Rahul Gandhi's Amul Walk remains the beginning to an utterly buttery"Democracy".

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"...
