Non Sensical sense :)

My hand was craving to write something, just like a crave to have chocolate or something ;). But what to write? I just wrote a blog and blabber something because I was angry. So it was easy writing when you are angry. Words and content just flow, but if it’s a crave then really difficult to think. I decided to write something which I had in my mind for a while but that needed a little research and I am certainly not in mood for doing that just to satiate my stupid crave. So I decided to just blabber something crap.

But then I thought, shouldn’t I be responsible when I write something on public forum?

Get loss.

It’s my blog, not a newspaper space and I will write whatever I feel like. And any way who read it to get annoyed by my irresponsibility :P. So I am quite free for spilling my non-senseJ.

Day after day passes, I pass many people on my way without realizing or without looking. While wandering in a park if suddenly I look up then it just astonish me, the sky , the tree, how many mundane structure which are mundane to think but if I look at them at that point of time it look wonderful as if I have never seen them. When I travel in a bus with many passengers, I rarely have the feeling that I am surrounded by people, people with different aspiration, different past and future but still the same. But when I come out of my trance and really look at someone then I get a sensation of someone like me in flesh and blood. What’s their story? I don’t try to think.

Where am I going, what’s going to happen, what’s I am missing: countless and meaningless questions like trouble me always. Life goes on but its puzzle instead of being unlocked get more tangled and difficult. Or is it really that difficult? Sometime it feels like an open book or like a normal flow of river with no puzzling complexity, just me and my very simple life. I am confuse.

Many times I feel myself very happy (apparently for no reason), I try to think of the reason, I try harder but could think none. What is it? Why I am feeling happy? Then some silly reason pop up in my mind and I just get astonish that because of this I was so happy whole day. And then I think how could a silly reason like this make me happy for whole day when sometimes even a big event cannot excites a tiny portion of me? How astonishing, how unexplainable? My life goes on…

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and then my 2 day. Will I ever stop getting excited on Friday when I know perfectly that next two day I have to spend with myself at my home and I am quite capable of wasting 48 hours with doing nothing? After Sunday again the week comes and then that also goes in puff and again my days come. My life just goes on……

Every night I expect a thrill from next day but next day goes just as mundane as previous day but I never stop expecting. Dream and expectation are glued to my life such that it never let me breathe in reality. When will I get over all those? I don’t think I will ever be, but thing is that I don’t wanna be. But I know I should be because I think I might have reached to age where dream should take a back seat and let reality creep into its place. So should I? hmmm, forget about it I don’t think I have any control on this ;) . So my life again goes on with this dream J.

Office starts with boring Monday. In my whole IT career, IT industry was never able to occupy my life, my life never revolve around this. My work is never enough to fill my time. My time is highly underutilized, so do my ability. I hardly utilize 1% of it, and funny thing is there isn’t anyone in this world that is/are stopping me to do so. But I still do not do so, and my life just goes on with my wastage…

I have never been an eloquent speaker nor an efficient writer. My grammar sucks; in whole my writing too sucks. I am completely aware of that. But whatever it is, writing comes as easily as breathing. My breathing might be wrong but it’s still essential and pleasant for me. It suits me because I don’t have to open my mouth. It suits me because I don’t have to think about person in front of me before writing, I just have to think about myself. The word that eludes me while speaking flows freely while writing. So I am quite capable of writing nonsense as I am doing nowJ. And hence my nonsense goes on…….

I think this much nonsense is quite sufficient to satisfy my craving for the moment so I’ll stop for the sake of some rare person who dare to read it ;)

Inflating inflation

The week end food inflation index is again up, moving from 8.84 to 9.13 and Finance minister’s statement on this is: “increase in food inflation is area of grave concern”. Haven’t we been listening this same statement for past 2-3 years after release of each weekly inflation data?

No not same always, as I remember at the starting point of inflation spiral statement was something like this “unprecedented growth of India has put more money on Indian’s hand hence spurring the demand, which in turn is actuating the inflation. Inflation is demand driven and govt. can do little about it as it can’t hurt the growth in process”. After some time our minister realizes that he can’t kick this logic on the empty stomach of millions of Indian for so long, so act of denial changed into act of acceptance. This is the new stance adopted by government; when inflation figures come then just show your worried face to media and accept that it’s a disturbing trend, but do nothing about it.

When at first I saw minister accepting this fact then I took sigh of relief that govt. has finally realized the problem and they will take action on it. But soon it was clear that this act of acceptance is not going to result in any concrete action. We have to live and satiate our problem only with a candid admission of problem by our minister.

I don’t know whether growth in this decade is unprecedented or not (it’s certainly not) but shooting price of food articles are certainly unprecedented, which is hitting millions of Indian. 75% Indians are below poverty level (if we don’t consider the frivolous affidavit given by planning commission to the court , as per which person earning 26 rs or more in rural place cannot be considered as poor) who struggle hard for the basic necessity of the life and food constitute large chunk for that struggle. In this scenario if this persisting adamant high inflation completely erodes their income and forces them into an abject poverty where it would be completely impossible to sustain, then who is responsible for this? No matter what is the driving force behind inflation: whether international scenario, or high growth (which is highly unlikely) or high demand or whatever it is, a willing and capable government has always many tools to fight it. And if a government says that it is incapable of doing so then it has no right to govern. There are several short term and long term measure to fight inflation (whatever the reason behind it), but government doesn’t seem to doing anything at all except giving statements. It’s highly probable that now government might have been thinking of some new format of statement to give as we are tired of listening the same statement over and over.

But when we are going to get a policy change instead of a mere statement change? I fervently hope that answer is not: "Never".

Dear Sir and Madam

I belong to a country who is famous for its guru-shishya tradition, I belong to a class who earn their bread using their pen, I belong to a family where study come at the top of the list (my 2^nd uncle never bought a television so that his children would not be deviated from study J ).Having been brought in such environment make me a natural guru worshipper.

Teacher – student relationship is a wonderful relationship where bonding with teacher goes beyond student and touches his/her entire spectrum of life: their hope, future, family and much beyond that.

I have savoured many such relations in my life. I have many wonderful teachers who have secured a very special place in my heart.

One day one of my teachers told us we should never lie, such was the effect of his words that it still resonates in my mind and paralyse me if I ever try to lie. One would think that it is such a simple and silly thing and you hear this lecture by almost everyone or read it in everywhere, but it made a difference in my life when it was uttered by my teacher for whom I have regard as equal to god. There are many such simple thing which we might discard as mere rhetoric but they did made a difference in my life when delivered by my teacher. I have not only earned knowledge from them but learned many important lesson for my life which still guide me through my way.

I will not forget to mention most important teacher of my life: My Mom. She has been guiding me since the time when I first looked upon this world. She has been the best teacher for my academic, moral and physical career and she is still playing that role.

I know I might have been headache for some of my teacher (because of my naughtiness).Many time I have been termed as most notorious student of school by them. One teacher said that how a class monitor is supposed to disciple the class when she herself is the worst disciplined student (I was the monitor ;) ). But even after all this I know they loved me and I loved them all J .

Whatever I am today is because of my teachers, and I know it is not at all sufficient (because I am still nobody L ). They deserve more of me and I have to prove myself for them.

A very happy teacher’s day to all my beloved teachers, May they shine brightly for their entire life. And a very happy teacher’s day to all those teachers whose constant endeavour keep shaping life of millions J

Blind eye

“If J&K assembly had passed a resolution similar to the Tamil Nadu one for Afzal Guru would the reaction have been as muted? I think not”: Omar Abdullah through twitter.

That’s a very valid question and I think Mr. Abdullah is correct, Reaction would not have been muted but of a wild political turmoil. But my question is why? BJP’s comment on this was that “This is a sensitive issue and Mr. Abdullah comment on this is unfortunate”. My question is “isn’t Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination a sensitive issue”. What is the difference between attack on parliament and attack on Indian political leader who was PM and was also powerful PM contender at that point of time. Both were the attack on Indian democracy and sovereignty. So why Afzal Guru’s case is different? He is also Indian citizen and has every right which Indian constitution has conferred to every Indian citizen. J&K assembly has every right pass resolution to seek clemency for Afzal Guru who is resident of J&K and they should do it because this is only proper and valid thing to do.

I don’t know what is the extent of complicity of Afzal Guru in parliament attack conspiracy. It upon court to decide and court has given verdict against him. But I believe whatever the extent of his crime, neither he nor any person waiting for their fateful end, deserve this. Afzal Guru’s case was highly politicised for the petty political gain. Though I have complete faith in justice system of my country, but I personally feel that Afzal Guru did not get a fair trial in this extremely politically motivated and prejudiced environment. But I don’t want to get into legal tangle of case of in question whether justice has been delivered or not. My point is that when Tamil Nadu assembly passed the resolution to seek the clemency for 3 convict of Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination, there were many of us who sympathized with their case. I don’t think Afzal Guru’s case is different; case is being dragged for 10 years. He was awarded death sentence in 2004. He has been waiting for his fate for past 7 years. He was not the direct connivance in the attack on parliament. As an Indian citizen he is fully entitled for sympathy of us Indians. Why should we not seek for his clemency? By executing him we are not going to give a message that we are tough on terrorism, the only message will go out of it that we discriminate, we discriminate on the basis of region, religion and so on... But if we be unite in demand of his clemency and if Govt. Of India do it then a positive message will go, that message will be of reconciliation, humanity and maturity of Indian democracy. Argument can be raised against this that by doing this we are showing our weakness, or going soft on terrorism. But being hard on terrorism means prevent the attack on innocent at any cost not that hang as many people as possible after the attack. That leads to acerbity in society and that’s the divisive action not cohesive, it encourages terrorism more instead of preventing it. I appeal to all Indian and Indian political party to think by rising above the petty politics, put their prejudices behind them, and look at the victim by forgetting his personnel identity by considering him only as a human being. As a citizen of India I appeal to president of India to commute the death sentence for Afzal Guru and also for the three convict of Rajiv Gandhi’s assassination.

At last I want to say that I am fully aware of the pain inflicted on individual and families who is victim of terror attacks. I never know that I could be the next. Everyone wants justice the crime perpetrated on their loved one. But death for death is not justice. It’s the medieval solution and 5000 years history of India shows that we don’t deliver justice in this manner. Terrorism a demon which grows on the blood and more you sacrifice on its altar, more it will grow. Many innocent will perish in this. And we would never like to see an innocent person to be hanged and his/her family to be condemned for their entire life in the process of seeking justice. Think about it.
