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.

Arundhatinama: I’d rather not be Anna: Trust me you cannot be even if you want to

‘We’re watching India being carved up in war for suzerainty that is as deadly as any battle being waged by the warlords of Afghanistan, only with much, much more at stake’ is the sentence by Arundhati Roy (Article in Hindu editorial dated 21/08/2011) to describe the recent movement launched by team Anna against corruption. The point made by Ms. Roy is completely lost upon me or it is quite possible that I am not enlightened enough to understand her.

I started article in hope for getting something substantial against recent movement or may be some innovative and different solution to achieve corruption free society. After all a society cannot be vibrant until there exists different views on different matters. But instead of providing a different solution or giving something substantial against team Anna it was completely directed towards berating them and discrediting them.

According to her, we can find one common in ‘Jan Lokpal bill’ and the Moists: both seek the overthrow of Indian state. Now if we consider ‘Jan Lokpal bill’, it may has the flaws and according to my understanding the movement is not to make government adopt exact version of ‘Jan Lokpal Bill’, but for a bill which is prepared by the consensus of the government and civil society and which contains the best of both version and in turn provides a strong and accountable Lokpal to root out corruption out of India. And how this bill can overthrow the Indian state is beyond my comprehension.

She terms Jan Lokpal Bill as a draconian anti corruption bill where huge power will be vested in Lokpal to watch the government from higher level to lower level. Corruption is so widespread that some institution is needed to be on watch for the behavior of public institution and if vesting power in Lokpal to do the watching, is draconian then I certainly do aspect from Ms. Roy to suggest some alternative. But instead what I get is the example of what will happen when Lokpal come in picture: example of a shopping mall where streets hawkers are banned and they pay small sum to local police and municipality to break the law and sell their wares to those who cannot afford prices in malls. Now if Lokpal comes in picture there would be two possibilities: either they would be driven out or they have to pay even to one more institution (Lokpal) for encroaching. So according to her, Lokpal is one more power structure and people will find themselves entangled in one more layer of bureaucracy. I might accept the possibilities but what about millions of poor Indians who don’t have money for their sustenance but they have to bribe government employee to get the social service for which they are entitled or do not get it at all because the money intended for the service never reaches them. Does she want to continue this system and not to have any remedies at all? A hawker or even she might be able to pay his/her way through but millions of Indians cannot. We need to have something; this cannot continue and if you cannot provide the alternative solution then just shut up.

Then she talks of different movement held in different part of company. Fast of Anna is highlight of news channel but this fast doesn’t mean anything if it’s of Irom Sharmila (lasted for more than 10 years against AFSPA). I accept that, her fast means a lot and I ask her why don’t she do something about it and why she doesn’t mobilize people in the way team Anna is doing for him instead of moaning about it. A Movement needs not to be exclusionary and it also does not discredit other movements. The way she describes the movement happening around the different company against displacement and different development project as that Lokpal movement is discrediting them all. It’s like you offer food to a hungry person and then being criticized for ignoring thousands others who are hungry. Is this justified? And who says movement against displacement and development project by people will not be anti corruption movement. Isn’t the massive displacement of people and degradation of forest by corporate world is result of corrupt nexus between corporate and politician. Won’t all these projects be under the scanner of lokpal which might be able to do minimal damage to the common man?

She discredits Arvind Kejriwal’s NGO and others for accepting millions of dollars from corporate and also question of involvement of corporate in movement. First of all you just can’t blame a dedicated person like Arvind Kejriwal without corroborating his personal gain from the contribution. Many NGO get benefitted from corporations and they cannot do without it. Can we refute the NGO related to polio vaccination etc for taking donation from Bill and Melinda Gates foundation?

She also questions about Anna Hazare’s secular credentials and his views on casteism. I don’t think that is relevant here. He is not trying to facture the Indian society or trying to mobilize support for a community or building a temple or mosque. It’s a question of national importance and I don’t know how the question of religious or caste inclination find a way here.

I do not agree with media impersonating Anna Hazare as Mahatma Gandhi nor do I term the team Anna as saint for spearing the movement. I do not deny that there could be other motives also. But what I think is that they are fighting against something which is really a social malaise and in the process they are not harming any one. So what’s wrong in supporting or more, turning this towards something really right? It’s not like venom spewed by a politician for their personnel gain. It’s a movement to unite the people not fragment them. If the movement succeeds it might result in something good. The original ‘Jan Lokpal Bill’ is full of flaw (which is accepted by Arvind Kejriwal, he said that he never wanted it to be passed in original form but wanted it to be discussed and debated for something good to be come out of it) but that can be corrected by consultation and discussion. We don’t have scarcity of intelligent and thoughtful man to look into that. Let’s not deviate from the issue and if we have problem with it then let’s give an alternative solutions. Nothing else is accepted other than that. Jai hind (I’ll say that and you cannot stop me from doing that by terming it as cheap movement propaganda :P ).

Tax or extortion: Reason to fight against corruption

Since the time I have started earning, one thing becomes quite visible for me- Different kind of taxes which keep fleecing me. I contribute small sum (though huge for me) to my country economy every month through direct tax which is imposed on my income, if I dare to eat out I again pay tax which is the sum of Service tax plus VAT (this tax amounted to 24% in pizza hut, can you believe that? You eat for 400 and pay 100 rupees tax for that.), I pay 10% tax on my utility bill, 30% on any kind of bonus I get, and there are many taxes on my shopping bill. One day I was outraged by this atrocities perpetrated on me by government in form of tax. But I consoled myself that I am contributing this amount to country for the welfare of its people which includes me too.

But does this contribution mean anything???????????

No I don’t think so. My hard earned money makes way to those umpteen holes which has been created by corrupt bureaucracy and politician and we don’t have reach to these holes which vanishes like vanishing mice. I can’t even get satisfaction by paying tax that I am contributing something for my country. It makes me angry to see that how these leeches of country are making mockery of my hard work. You pay taxes to pay those bureaucrats and politicians so that they can serve public purpose and then you pay again in form of bribe to get those services done.

In this scenario tax paid by us to government is no more than extortion money which never gives us any value for our spend and left us to feel like being robbed.

Corruption corrodes not only money but also morality, humanity, honesty and integrity from our life. It makes culprit not only of Bribe taker but also of bribe giver. Corrupt system compels even honest people to surrender and take route of corruption for getting their work done. Nobody can dare to escape it. Our system is rotten to such extent that it now quite a norm (like a procedure) to pay money, if you want to get police verification done for your passport then you have to pay (and payment is also fix they won’t listen for below 1000 bucks) otherwise they will send the adverse report ( it happens with me). I was astonished to see that everyone accepts this as fact and are very casual about that. How come a poor person can survive in this system, I just shudder to even think that.

I don’t think Jan Lokpal bill proposed by the civil society led by Anna Hazare will uproot this corruption from our system which has taken its root very deep inside system. But I am glad that at least we are now taking notice of this. Some good is bound to come out of this. What I wish that bribe should not be glorified but condemned. I have seen parents paying lakhs of dowry to get the groom who is government employee, who hardly earns 10000 but command such market value because of their ability to make money through bribe. I want system to be changed so that these kinds of person will not be admired but abhorred by the society.

Now those are the matter of social revolution for which ‘will power’ of society and individual are needed. But there are matters where we need to see political will from government to bring the revolution to uproot corruption but we all are disheartening to see that much impetus from the common man also failed to shake the government. Is this democracy? Or we call it banana republic. That should be a proper name for it. I had faith on integrity of our honorable prime minister but it’s quite shaken now. I don’t know whether its Manmohan Singh’s own decision to confront the civil society in this manner or he is compelled to do that but whatever is the reason he cannot escape now in the disguise of apolitical gentleman. The course taken by his government in recent wake of event is condemnable and bizarre for a democratic government. I take pride in democracy of my country and I cannot accept any action from government which is direct deterrence from the path of democracy and make a mockery of our constitution. I will support Anna Hazare and civil society not for the Jan Lokpal bill but to defend the rights which have been conferred to us by our constitution. I will support Anna Hazare just not for the passing a suitable lokpal bill but to bring the revolution in our society and wake the youth of this country from the slumber. Jai Hind

Changing Change :)

I feel so good for writing after a long gap, and not sure whether I can finish it off. I have been away from blogging for a long time. Past 3 month has been turbulent for me and I had lots of unexpected change in my life and I am still in anticipation of more unexpected change. My nature is embracing more and more dynamicism as I am proceeding towards a more mature age. Any anticipated change in my life is not final until it really happened. On 14^th June I decide to move to Mumbai and start packing for it, but instead I find myself in Bangalore on June 19^th. So I can really say that ‘Never say never’. Now I am talking non-sense (In your words, All these makes sense for meJ; now stop it honey) .In Summary my life is changing and will continue to do so in future J (signs telling me so J ). So what are the changes: for instances I started liking and watching ‘Friends’ ;): Now that’s crap, I am again talking nonsense. Any way if you are trying to read this blog completely then I must warn you that you will find lots of crap, now it’s on you that how you bear it J.

So another change is that now I am in Bangalore. Nice weather, greenery and nice scenes, in short I am liking it. Sometime instead of reading newspaper in bus (which I used to do in Chennai) I keep looking outside. I am kind of enchanted with the city; you might think me as a child who comes from a small town to the big city for the first time, though it’s not first for me but believe me ‘with me everything thing is first’. What I am really missing now: A boyfriend with bike to stroll all over the city ;). Crap again, can’t stop me, gooodd J .

Another change: Cabinet reshuffle happened yesterday. Now how does it involve me: It does, because I did not like it. I did not like Jairam Ramesh to be moved from MOEF to Rural development, I see a hell lot of conspiracy behind it. Government might show it as elevation of post for Mr. Ramesh and reward for his good work and he might accept it happily (Not sure whether he really is that’s inside story) but it’s a conspiracy to appease corporate world, he might have been rewarded in another way. Any way I just hope that Jayanthi Natarajan keep doing the Jairam Ramesh’s good work as she is quite qualified to do so, and I really do hope that Jairam Ramesh brings a whole new revolution in area of Rural Development as he did in environment ministry.

That’s too much now , I am going to stop now. Seeeee I completed this blog. Good work Honey, take a lesson: do not doubt on yourself in future J . Crap again, too much. Bye for now. God bless you for finishing this J

My Bapu

A cool breeze swept through the world at the hot bloody weathered world when world was reeling under the violence everywhere – somewhere in name of independence, somewhere in name of ethnic cleansing, somewhere in name of colonizing and power game. The fragrance of the soothing wind is still there in atmosphere even after the 63 years when a blow tried to stop it. It still soothe me at the time of my agony, it still provide me a gentle and cold breeze when I feel choked by the indecent game in form of corruption, violence and dirty politics being played around me. It still guides me to the path when I get diverted from it.
Yes this cool breeze is in form of father of nation. A father who might have made mistakes, but never failed his family, a father who starved himself to feed his family, a father who taught self-respect and alter ego-respect to family even in hour of desperation.
The ideology of Mahatma Gandhi is not confined to “offer other cheek if been slapped on one” which is the usual notion. “Offer another cheek” ideology forced us to think in a manner which was unknown hitherto. It’s not necessary to practice the ideology in real life to be a Gandhinian but it more important to understand the nuisance behind it. A natural human instinct prompts us to strike back as an instant response to violence, what is more important is to suppress this instant natural instinct which can cause many disaster and we might rue it in future. This is what this Gandhinian ideology trains us to do.
Gandhinian ideology makes one prudent in decision, brave in situation and adamant on ideation which is the characteristics of a strong personality.
When you ask whether his idea is applicable to this world or not my answer will be a big YES. It’s applicable to every part of life and to everyone, whether it’s a corporate person, or sales executive, or an environmental activitist, or a pressure group, or a movement steerer. You follow his simple idea and you will be at top of world with complete peace of mind.
When congress working committee decided to launch non cooperation movement and was deliberating from where they should commence it, everyone was awestruck when Gandhiji suggested salt. Even British laughed at idea. But Gandhiji just knew that if he commence by breaking land law (which was the general feeling in congress) the common mass of India cannot connect to it as most of them do not own any land, so breaking of this law will not be in any scenario relevant to them or profit them. But salt was the only commodity which binds rich and poor alike. And success of movement made historian to see the light behind Gandhiji great managerial mind which was capable to think in a way which nobody dare to think. And this mind was in sync of the mind of millions of people’s aspiration which shows a way to sustainable development in today’s cut-throat competetitive and corporative world.
When you ask me whether it’s possible to follow his ideology. Again my answer is a big YES. If a person can grasp the ideology of socialism, capitalism, Marxism, Confucius which all are woven around many complex social and political wires then why it is difficult to follow Gandhigiri which has only one and simple concept – ‘Love’. Love all irrespective of their origin and birth. If a person hurts you then hate the deed of person and pledge to never do that, do not hate the person as this hate will put you on the same foot as the person you want to hate. This simple ideology has revolutionary strength to change the world and make a heaven out of it. Trust me to love a person is easier than to hate. Hate corrupt our mind and we lose our tranquility The idea of non-violence comes out of this love. You cannot afford to hurt the person you love
Gandhiji transformed my life in many ways. He taught me idea of self control and firmness of character. He has shown me other way of thinking which was unimaginable for me. His character of firmness and his ability to endure inspire me for all moment of my life and hold me together. There are problems and there will always be some problems but relevancy of Gandhiji will always let me solve those problems in a ways which will not create more problems out of it.
Many of us abuse our father (real father ) in many form, sometimes feel that he is the big impediment of our life, but at the end we come to a realization which shows us that we were wrong, and then we begin to know the man behind him who was always concealed behind the face which our immature and childish eye saw, who always thought only and only of our well being.
If this is the story of a family then why the story of nation as a family would be different. Here too a father is subject of regular assault and degradation by his desperate children who with their short term vision does not understand his ideology. But they will understand.I don’t want to go further into the allegation and truth related to it, as I am planning to write more on this. What my simple wish here is to show a Bapu, a true Bapu and as I proudly say my ‘BAPU’ :)

Responsible or irresponsible????

Not long ago in a meeting of particular institute, someone asked a question. Question was something similar to this: the institute boasts and do lot for CSR , but what about the children who work here. Isn’t management encouraging child labor? Management’s answer was that it’s not in their notice that any child is working but they will take cognizance of this issue and find out more on this. In next meeting management clarified that none of the person working inside the institution is below 18 and administration takes necessary steps to implement minimum age bar. If any person working inside the campus looks below 18 then it just because of their appearance not because of age.
Bravo!!!!!!!! Kudos to management and the concerned associates that they prevented the child labour. Did they?
When the question was asked I was sitting wondering at my place (but I didn’t say anything since it was not a forum to discuss child labor). But just think about a child with age 14 working in pantry, who lost his job after the issue came in cognizance of management. Now he is employed in a cracker’s factory, playing with dangerous and hazardous condition.
What a better way to discharge our social responsibility!!!
Lets 1st discuss the technical aspect of the problem.At first a child is permitted to work after 14 (with parent consent), after 16 (without any consent) in any non-hazardous and non-exploitative job. What could be better place than that institute for him to work which is safe, clean and source of contact with knowledgeable people.
I would have been happier if management would have come with approach that through its CSR programme it would have ensured a proper education and proper living condition for all children working inside the campus.
India is a poor country and child labour problem could not be solved by just not employing child. Boycotts is not the solution, it might make the situation graver.For example, a UNICEF study found that after the Child Labor Deterrence Act was introduced in the US, an estimated 50,000 children were dismissed from their garment industry jobs in Bangladesh, leaving many to resort to jobs such as “stone-crushing, street hustling, and prostitution”, jobs that are “more hazardous and exploitative than garment production”. The study suggests that boycotts are “blunt instruments with long-term consequences that can actually harm rather than help the children involved.”
Solution is to ensure a healthy, safe and respectful environment for child to work and also make the employer take responsibility to provide a mandatory education of working child. We cannot just throw a working child out and boycott taking a willing child and think that we are champion of social cause. If a poor child is willing to work and want to make a place for himself/herself and his/her family in this world then it’s our responsibility to guide them according to their ability and show them the way which will take them to their bright future.

A Resolution

Second changes into minute, minute into hour, hour into day, day into week, week into month, month into year, year into decade and part of us changes with it without realizing the presence and effect of change. I hardly understand the intricacies of the life but find myself entangled into this intricate web. I hardly have any idea how to come out of it. The more I ponder over solution more I get myself capsized into the problem.George Orwell has stated his view on the structure of society in 1984. More or less Society has always been composed of three groups: Higher class, middle class and lower class. Conflict between these classes is traced way back to history. Higher class struggle to retain the position where they are and middle class try to snatch the position of higher class by means of lower class. They takes means of ideology like liberty, freedom, socialism, equality, fraternity etc etc to win support of lower class and fight the higher class. Once they achieve their target they became higher class and again a new middle class emerges to take the position to fight against higher class. French revolution is the classic example of this dual nature class war. But always the people at the rung of lowest ladder in society lose despite the fact they make the ladder through which people climb to the highest echelons.Now you must be wondering why suddenly I jumped from my problem to the class war. I was forced to think how slowly and may be unknowingly I am converting into something and resorting onto means which is propelling me to discover a complete new identity.A simple example is when I went to buy onion, onion price is soaring high, and I was appalled at the sky rocketed price, and so do millions of middle class Indians who cannot live without onion. Forget about lower class they have already removed onion from their daily meal list. Now this middle class’s rage will compel government to take stern action which might result into softening the price. Have any one ever thought about the losses farmers made because of crops loss resulted from unpredicted weather flood and other natural devastation, which is the main reason for high price of commodity. Have we ever thought to share their burden by buying crops into high prices (though high price never results in profit for actual farmer) or reduce our consumption to manage our budget? It doesn’t matter for us if we spent thousands in restaurants and hundreds in junk food, but we are quite capable to bend government priority from real issue (to tackle the problem of agriculture and farmer) to short term measurement like price control for onion price which is pricking our neck. All mighty middle class and their power, I am again wondering that am I becoming part of those?All banks flocks at our gate to provide loan at throw away interest rate to us for buying car, bungalow, for spending a holiday on luxurious yacht. A poor farmer has difficulty in arranging few thousands for him from bank. If he ever manage to get some rupees then that also at high interest rate from money lenders or from the new variety of modern moneylender who are known as micro finance today. This results most of the time in suicide in case of non-payment. Banks does not have money to lend poor farmer as they are happily lending all those money to us for fulfilling our luxurious life style. A poor farmer results in poor crops which results in shortage and ultimately government imports or subsidize commodity for our appeasement instead of looking into the bottom of the problem. Again the mighty middle class controls all. Why do we worry if our stomach is full, we control the country.I am worried, I see myself among those middle class, perhaps unknowingly and indirectly, but I am there. I am sinking deep and deep into the mud which I always detested and tried to avoid. Sometimes I feel I am also on the path which all middle class took to reach at high level – through talk of equality, fraternity, liberty and freedom. Talk, talk and talk. I hate to think myself into shoes of those self proclaimed reformer and thinker. My New Year resolution is to detach myself from all these in all possible way and make it as simple as possible. Make those ideologies not a way to reach at top but way to live my live. Happy resolution :)

I, Me and Potter

When you close your eye and imagine yourself flying, people called this childish imagination. The more you are potter fan, more likely is it to be termed as childish. Enough is enough!!!!!!! I am not going to sit and listen bickering you people over my Potter.

So what I am going to do?

I am going to prove all you adults wrong :p.

If you see the other side of coin then you will feel that childishness is the most mature thing in this world. When Wright brothers thought of making a flying plane, many would have warded them off as childish. But, see, do you think those thought as childish? Any way I am not going to divert from my Potter because of your argument.The magical world woven around Harry Potter’s book might look magical and non-existent from outside but once you float deep inside the river of magic you get to touch the deep, painful, palpable reality which differ no more from any real philosophical book. The 11 yr old boy Harry’s dream, pain is what most of us feel. He is no more extra-ordinary than us, but what make him different is his courage, his ability to value humanity and friendship, his ability to accept and endure. There are ample of instance and scenario in book which make me to do introspection on the way of my life which has been followed by me hitherto. It opens up a complete new demographic reality for me.

Harry usually led into a path which is completely unknown to him and which always been avoided by others, but he recognizes the need and do it. E.g. 1st year going in search of sorcerer stone, 2nd year in chamber of secret etc. Most of us would have avoided those situations by thinking that we are too young for these and elder people would take care of these.

Moral: open up, and come out of your shell. This world is ours and we cannot leave its responsibility upon others. Our life will be ruined if we don’t initiate and depends on others to take the initiative. Try our best with best motive in heart. Help will always come in our way and we will succeed. But that will not happen until and unless we don’t explore and come out of our shells.

‘Dare to think’ and ‘dare to do’ is a common message which is strewn all over the book. It gives me strength to stand in my misery and give me message of how to live my life.
Life is full of unlocked mystery and those lock are waiting for us to openSo what do you think? Are you ready to dare and ready to open the lock?All you adults, start being childish from now onwards otherwise you won’t be able to see and identify those locks (it’s strictly prohibited for adults ).

Hey Ram:

Let me tell you a story. There exists a village and there was a beautiful house occupied by beautiful people. There were some stories and rumor around the ancestory of the house. People whisper that some 2000 year ago a group of gypsies came into village and plundered the house and drive the original occupant of house outside. And since then generation after generation are residing in that house. Centuries after century passed. People changed, age changed and so does lot other things. If true plundering the house was a heinous thing and gross injustice with the original occupant. They were denied justice at that point of time. Ages over ages passed and took all traces of crime and the victim itself with it. Now the occupant of house is as much as belongs to village as the victim. They are completely innocent and unaware of the crime committed by their ancestors for whom they can’t even associate themselves. Put yourself in their place and say are you accountable for these or you will be ready to pay for some crime which was committed some 2000 years ago by your ancestor (wrong to say ancestor, that also difficult to prove)?Now the moral of story?Not difficult to guess, right? Yes you are absolutely correct; I am referring to Ayodhya issue.VHP leader Praveen Kumar Togadia tells the press that it’s the wish of millions of Hindu residing all over the world to build a grand Ram temple in Ayodhya at disputed structure. Which Hindu he is talking about? Am I not a Hindu? I am more devoted Hindu than him in each and every sense. But for me it doesn’t matter where the Ram temple is, because he resides directly inside my heart. I have a grand place more than 67 acre (claimed land for making the temple in Ayodhya) in my heart for him and I don’t have to bleed it or go to court for making a temple. But do they have this place for Ram? No? Don’t they understand Bhagwan Ram has left the place and vow to never come there again at the day of 23rd Dec, 1949 when his idol was forcefully placed inside the Babri Masjid structure? Don’t they understand that Ram was choked to death by them when they broke the babri masjid and bloodshed followed the breaking of structure? What they want to create? A heartless and soulless Mandir on the bloody land and by acting like this they are doing great service to god Rama? Aren’t they discrediting his name by acting like this? Christians indulge themselves in social and creative work to spread their religion by spreading goodwill and our so called bearer of religion want to build a Mandir on countless of corpse. What message it will leave on whole world? But why do they bother, it’s not a matter of faith it’s actually politics and everything is fair in politics.The court ruling on the issue was definitely historic and reconciling. I respect the good motive of all three judges behind the ruling. But it would have been better if court would have seized the structure and strip the right to own the land from all disputed party and given it some NGO to establish an orphanage or elder care centre. Giving the ruling based on faith and unproven evidence when matter of national integrity and communal harmony is in your mind, actually set a wrong precedent which might result in thousands of such cases in future in order to gain political and social leverages. Country comes before religion and we as a citizen of India (regardless of our religion) heartedly accept that. According to the court ruling mandir structure was there before Babar created mosque over it (by destroying it completely or on ruin of Mandir is still contentious) the place was declared Ram janmbhumi and Hindus have been provided right over the land. I know very little about archealogical evidence but my logical evidence says that there should be status quo on all the structure in the country regardless of how they came into existence and who built them. Court cannot revert back the 6th dec, 1992 act (when Babri Masjid was demolished), since it has been done. But it can prevent it to be happening again by snatching it from hand of communal forces and declare it a national property.I know my Ram is very hurt by act of his so called handful of follower. But I hope he will be cured by our goodwill and act of justice towards our Muslim counterpart. Lets spread his good will and statesmanship to all world and show the world ‘Real Ram’.

I Hate Love Story

Gentle breeze, moon light, romantic situation and perfect partner, haven’t we had enough of Bollywood to corrupt mind of young generation. Oops sorry, it’s not only bollywood. It has been happening since the romantic era (age since Shakespeare). I have had enough of this love non-sense and the immaturity associated with it. I can’t understand the concept of ‘you and only you’, that’s completely bullshit. There are more than 6 billion people on this planet and nature has bestowed everyone with distinguished quality. It’s very difficult to understand that how people blind folded with the dream world (can’t say it love, it’s only the effect of movie and our talented writers who make us believe on whatever they want. After all most of the people in India believe that Anarkali existed when it was just a fictional character, a figment of imagination of a very talented writer) actually pick one out of 6 billion, and trust me they themselves don’t know why. The very effect of fictional world around them makes them believe on ‘you only and you’, but that effect weans off very soon and that ‘only you’ is soon forgotten. Then why to make so much fuss about it. Ok I agree with you, you say people have feeling and might like someone. Then just like and forget about that, you will get thousands in future whom you will like, there is no point in sticking around one and ruin your life behind ‘only you’. Trust me life is very simple if you want to live it in simple way. If you complicate it will become so entangled that it will choke you to death. Everything depends on your mind , you direct your mind that I want to like this person and I’ll be happy with him/her , trust me you will be happy with any one by thinking like this. There is no point being adamant about ‘only you’. That shows only that you can not ward off your ego and move on with your life. So enjoy the romantic movie (if want to take my way then don’t watch them, they just choke you to the boredom ) but don’t get influenced by it. There are plenty of men/women around this planet and they are as compatible to you as your concept of ‘only you’ :) . convert ‘only you’ to ‘you, you or you’ ;)
