THE HOT WINTER



Ready with the room heaters, hot sweaters, heavy quilts, warm and innocuous cadre was enthusiastic for the coldest winter.
I was having throe because of my exams and the country was excruciated and obsessed with a series of hurting events. Cold makes us extremely susceptible to illusions. I also had such an illusion during the gushing hours of my exam, when every student was racing to empty their ink to the maxim I was busy dreaming. Fantasizing how saffron terror has rooted the nation, and has started to stick more firmly than the Velcro on   my old shoe.
Unlike media, I don’t want to politicize the saffron terror but thought, if left at its current stage of simply getting a crazy SWAMI a.k.a. aseemanand and his co-crazy workers behind the bar is little less, but a few criminals who thought Muslims are taking over India. Nothing more, nothing less – but a TULSIDAS-TALIBAN network which works on the loopholes of the Indian super computer.
When Yeddyurappa broke out even with A.Raja, Thomas etc etc … and the two oppositions were homogenized and lot of “EKTA” was shown between the bonhomie’s, I started my “ekta yatra” to flag the hypothetical “INDIAN” valley. With all possible contingencies the gory extremists with their subtle arguments proved I am not an Indian and I am in a destitute state to hoist the tricolor. Fracas and the pompous politicians broke my ekta and now Yeddyurappa, Raja and Thomas are divorced and disrupted the holy meeting in the “white clothe house” seeking a JPC.
In the midst of all this, conceit and ostentatious onion broke up with his partner Mr. Pawar that made him go public,” like my former partner sugar, onion will make you cry and pay big”. Upbeat Pawar is such a sure man even the vegetative state feels his heat even if its 0 degree outside.
I was enthusiastic enough, for enthusiasm wafts us towards our goal. Normally we allow enthusiasm to elude us when we are involved in such mundane activities.
The final bell rings, “oh holy crap!!”, what have I done with my answer sheet !!! 
They were just sheets, that was just an egregious exam. But with acute annoyance I feel my country is akin to my answer sheet, it’s just that I want to use a pencil instead of a pen to ameliorate. Let me have enough money to buy an ERASER………..

THE INDIAN DUST

QUAGMIRE and SABOTAGED POLITICS, BLATANT and OBDURATE POLITICIANS, CRAVEN MEDIA, VINDICATED CRIMINALS, POWERFUL BUREAUCRATS, VEXED and INNOCUOUS CADRE PORTEND THE SHODDY INDIA…..
The Indian scam list is so huge that even the 32 storey “AADARSH” society looks mere pigmy.
Indians have innate talent. The talent of selfishness, corruption, fake power, talent to suppress the right and be part of the wrong.  
Our media was busy publishing Mr.Obama, the $10 billion  deal. Our media forgot the deal that was signed before Obama worth rupees 1000 crore by DoT minister A. Raja, the deal that was signed by the CWG team, the bofors deal etc etc etc etc…….but we were busy with the false hype. We wanted Obama to blame Pakistan for 26/11, but who is going to blame us. Corruption is far, far more dangerous than terror. Terrorists only attack the surface but corruption is in the roots.
The Aadarsh flats, which were to be given to the wives of the honorable army men who laid their lives for this country, were being distributed among the ministers….ARE THESE MINISTERS PLANNING TO HAVE A SEX CHANGE OPERATION TO BECOME FEMALES..??? (I said this because I thought these flats were for the widows of army men)

The amount sanctioned for the CWG games jumped three times and not a single penny was spent on either sports or sports men for their betterment. Bourgeois’ don’t have the amount to be part of this sports community and when such scams do occur they affect the performance. Moreover our sports minister what's his name.. yeah some gill doesn’t even know the names of the Asian games heroes. It's better for “some gill” to resign and better do some learning.
The telecom minster A. Raja is still defending his wrong purposes. 1000 crore scam is not enough for him to resign. 1000 crore is not even the budget of most of the countries of the world. The money that should have been used for the betterment of the nation was used for the betterment of raja sahib whose major aim should have been hedonism.
The recent involvement of Barkha Dutt and Vir Sanghvi shows the destitute state of today’s media..especially, the Indian media. The part of the society that has accepted the responsibility to clean the nation is itself atrocious.
Being democratic sometimes hurts and its effects are ludicrous. Being free and free enough makes me feel like a criminal who is striving for punishment. Before this transgression and abhor situation due to which the country is in the abeyance mood, we need to congregate and raise our voice against this wrong doing. Our future lies on the shoulders whose hands are under handful of notes….
With chagrin, GLORY INDIA….. ALWAYS

AMERICA'S TRUMP CARD

Recession hit unemployed Americans made the most powerful man on this earth to shiver. He had no alternative except   to do outsourcing with India.
Destitute US need jobs, the main reason for American eagle’s visit. Deals worth $10 billion were signed which created 50k opportunities in the other part of the world.
WAS THIS THE ONLY MOTIVE OF OBAMA’S VISIT??????
There is a clamor for American leadership in Asia, as none of the regional player wants CHINA to emerge as the dominating actor.
Obama is visiting Asia for the second time during his tenure. In 2009 he visited China. 2009 was the time when he was at his peak power domestically. He was dictating contour of his dominating political agenda, craven opposition. He wanted to use China as the fulcrum between Asia-Pacific relations. Time runs constantly and so did China. China’s fast growing economy and political clout are posing danger. It has started behaving as the superpower that has already emerged. It has started asserting its military profile in the region.
These all issues have made USians to use their brains……… and here comes the entry of INDIA! The denouement for US.
With Asia slipping, Pakistan going with china, Afghanistan revolting, US bids India for UNSC. He says NAMESTE INDIA… JAI O!!!!!.  HENCE PROOVED America wants India. India is no doubt the next superpower and can help US to suppress China. This shows the destitute state of America. But but but…. in spite of all these facts, needs and purveyed by India, he is hubris enough to say dominatingly that India should interfere in Burma. Here is anecdotal. As Burmese are in need and appealing India for help, India should extend her hand before china. Obama behaved sangfroid as he denied any comments on Kashmir thus officially not going against Islamabad.
Media did miss a point in the Obama’s speech. Pakistan dominated the discussion. But he did indirectly grotesque china.
Now when India and US are cronies we need to work hard this new relationship.
Or is this new relationship vague??
I hope not because we need America more than America needs us……………………………………

THE PAID MEDIA



Journalism as they say turns proverbs into clichés and is cited repeatedly for its profound inconvertible observation in life.
This one is for the journalists, “JOURNALISTS WHO LIVE IN GLASS HOUSES MUST THROW STONES AT OTHERS
Heck,We journalists, taught to blow against the wind and often live dangerously.
A Coin has two sides.  If one of its side is awesome than the other is abhorrent.  I am not censuring the media, just bringing the other side “the dark side”
Media subdues the public. The idea of the liberal media is a myth. Liberal here implies highly supportive of state power, state violence, and state crimes. Media has stopped thinking rather its mind is has just been rented to a mouthful of bureaucrats, politician, eminent personalities. Creating news that never existed…..and causing panic for nothing.
MEDIA STORY IS A FARCE
Pay and they will publish…it’s a short stop from doomsday here for our media. It has become puppet of the politicians. They telecast what sells...There are many unsung heroes whose deeds have the made the country proud but people barely know their name. These shoddy made pillars of today’s media does not showcase the real world. It is the created world the virtual world, and the only reason this has happened is because the mass likes to run away from reality and that’s where media has attacked us. It has converted these feeling to monetary value.
MEDIA CONGREGATES US FOR WRONG PURPOSE
Newspapers have become holy places for advertisements. Journalists are salaried to keep to their minds and mouth shut. They are becoming increasingly adrift from the crafts and ethics of the trade.  Corruption in media has been fictionalized across the world. They have become obdurate. 


Instead of looking at many aspects of the unequal nation in transition, the media is indulged in petty deceit. Media ignores the basic facts of HUMANITY, CONTENT, and JOB. It misses the point that lack of service exacerbates alienation and therefore fuels insurgency...
It is said that media power is the world’s biggest power… Media can change the world on its own. In past we have seen the power of media. The investigations that media has done even police has failed. It’s the wrong phase media is going through. It has to change itself before changing the world. Media is needed to be kept holy from corruption.
I HOPE THE MEDIA WILL CHANGE TO CHANGE US………….

FALSE PATRIOTISM

In the midst of all the sound and fury swallowing the Kashmir valley one thing I have learned is that there is nothing as powerful or quite as loud as ignorance on cruise control. If knowledge is power, then knowledge better start making some damned noise in the corridors of our “so called” leaders and quick because right now selfish killers and false patriots are running the asylum........



The already disputed land is again attracting seditious statements. It’s none other than “the Arundhati Roy” who with her anti national thoughts has evoked the “Indians”.

Our government - if it upholds our constitutional principles - must strike a tough balance between prosecuting seditious acts and protecting our right of speech.
The free speech does not however permit any one - howsoever recognized thinker, writer, politician or billionaire- to fuel flames of discord and hatred in the society. When such high class authorities make inane clichés it does affect the patriotic feelings.

Being a true Indian I am also hurt by the boisterous comments made by Roy but my question is to the mass…… why do we feel patriotic when our national status is in the witness box. Before the statement was made, Kashmir was our breakfast meal, held on the dining table murmured in mouth, discussed on TV and left.

But now Kashmir involves patriotism…………..

We live in an abeyance mood. Following each other, every statement as our status symbol and this includes our national pride….ohhh my neighbor is feeling patriotic, where the hell my patriotism is? If Congress is commenting on Arundhati Roy then why is BJP left?

I am not defending Roy’s speech, she is liable to be punished...The gory Kashmir is not a cakewalk, madam. The vexed Kashmiris need solution, not speeches, debates and “false patriotism”.

If we take out time to stop and think, then some of us might be a little disappointed on how we choose our nation's patriot.

And here we are, watching the clown show off false patriotism, brought to us by those who know not what they fear or how much they fear unless given specific instructions.


Kashmiri heart beats for India and staunchly stands for India.

DELHI REVISITED

In spite of all the contingencies, protracted controversies, vexed audience and countrymen INDIA showcased the world its power and willingness to perform at the highest level.

Now the games are over, all the controversies are looking farce. But no one should forget and forgive the quagmire fellows of this anecdotal tale. Yes, I am talking about corruption, the face that made the Indians nervous about there status, pride and heads.

World media, our own media went against us, the fight wasn't easy. we should agree that some facts were ludicrous and subtle just to congregate. It is also true that we did depend on the last minute "JUGAAD" , we Indians are innate in it, depending heavily on this word holding it as it is a lifeline in the last days. 

No one should be vindicated. Corruption is a Miasma and its Panacea should be found. Ombudsmen should be appointed and an immediate result is needed. Imperative acquittal should be awarded for all those who tried to scuttle the Indian ship. These obdurate people who used the innocence of the crowd for their accounts should be chastised.. 





Prime minister Dr. MANMOHAN SINGH  I think understands the intensity of the situation and has immediately appointed a CAG(comptroller and auditor general) A CAG is an agency that will supervise the work done by CBI and other ombudsman. But will it surrogate their work. CAG is committee under center, so will it deter or invigorate? 


Question now arises is there a need for CAG? Is this the question mark on the quality of CBI investigation. Whatever may be the purpose of CAG but its motive should be clean and clear.The denouement is yet to be revealed. Abeyance will not be tolerated. This is a massacre involving a grand scam of 80000cr. Mouth watering amount must say. We cannot abate the result. The truth should be revealed from and behind the shiny balustrade and fortification.

Despite of all the above controversies one felt the brouhaha of what Indians did and can do in future. With 38 gold medals the highest ever for India in Commonwealth games and a podium finish on the second place was a balmy experience. Magnanimous behavior by the hosts won each and every heart that came to India. The Indians had an incitement to do something and showcase their never ending culture.  

Courtesy, COMMONWEALTH GAMES Delhi did advance by 10 years with world class venues, hotels, and fabulous city to witness which has perpetuated the world and has given new definition of success. It is Inchoate as part of India.

WE SHOULD STAUNCHLY AND PROUDLY SAY    
                                    "JAI HIND"
