मेरी कविताये : वो रात जिसकी सुबह नहीं

2012-01-08T04:29:00.004-06:00

रात की ठिठुरन तेरे होठों की गर्मी में कहीं खो गयी ,
तेरे ऐसे ही चले आने से मेरी दुनिया रोशन हो गयी ,
मेरे हमसफ़र निकल पड़े हैं अब हम मंजिल की तलाश में,
हर पल ये अहसास होने लगा है मुझे कि तुम मेरी हो गयी!!

एक खूबसूरत का अरमान दिल में करवटे बदल रहा है,
मुड़ी चादरों कि सिलवटों में कोई ख्वाब उलझ रहा है ,
मेरे वजूद में बस ख़ुशी है शायद मौसम सँवर रहा है ,
ज़िन्दगी की तलाश में था, तू मिली और वो तेरी हो गयी !
हर पल ये अहसास होने लगा है मुझे कि तुम मेरी हो गयी !!

जाते वक़्त को मुट्ठी में पकड़ इस लम्हे को वहीँ रोक दूँ ,
तुम जाने के लिये उठो और में हाथ थाम तुम्हे टोक दूँ ,
इन आँखों कि शरारत में खोऊ और खुद को तुम्हे सौंप दूँ ,
मेरे प्यार कि मीठास चख , मीठी नींदों में तुम सो गयी !
हर पल ये अहसास होने लगा है मुझे कि तुम मेरी हो गयी !!

आँख खोलके जब देखा तो तेरे होठों पे बिखरे मोती थे सजे,
तेरे गालों पे थी हया कि लाली और गेसू मेरे चेहरे पे थे पड़े,
ये शायद वो रात होने वाली है जिसकी हमें सुबह न मिले,
तेरे हाथों कि नर्म छुंअन हमें फिर अनजानी राहों पे ले गयी !
हर पल ये अहसास होने लगा है मुझे कि तुम मेरी हो गयी !!

You are on Right Track Arvind Kejriwal Ji..

2012-01-05T20:31:00.004-06:00

This blog is in response to the article written by Arvind Kejriwal in TOI.

Peed Parvat Ban Gayi Hai Ab Pighalna Chahiye.. Is HImalay Se Koi Ganga Nikalna Chahiye.. Mere Seene me Nahi to Tere Seene Me Sahi.. Ho Kahin bhi Aag Magar Aag Jalna Chahiye... Gopaldas Niraj.

Dear Mr. Kejriwal,

I hope that you are doing well. I have followed the anti corruption movement for a long time and in my capacity as ordinary citizen of India played my part wherever and whichever way I could. The anti corruption movement grew bigger everyday because the patriots all across the India and their respective organizations participated in anti corruption movement in big way.

What is happening right now was expected by all right thinking people.. I have vowed way back in 1996 (I wasnt even a eligible voter at that time) I wont ever vote for Congress..As after my careful analysis I concluded that its the congress which is responsible for all ills in india. I am not saying that all other parties are bathing everyday in Gangaji but when you have a choice of choosing a lesser thief among all than Congress then I would definitely prefer any other party over it. Congress and its leaders disgust me and fill me with hopelessness that until these corrupt leeches are at helm nothing is going to change in India..

Its the Congress culture which is responsible for all the ills in India.. Its the congress culture which never allowed real democracy to take its place.. its the congress which never allowed good quality education at primary level so that the whole country becomes educated and can think before voting.. Its the congress culture which is responsible for all terrorism in India.. Its the congress culture which is responsible for all corruption in India.. and what that Congress culture is?? The congress culture of dynastic rule .. the congress culture for maintaining status quo.. the congress culture which never allows a common man to get elected but allows only sons and daughters of the politicians to come stand in elections.. This congress culture has destroyed India from with in.. If young Indians ever want to see developed India they have to throw the corrupt congress and its leaders to bay of bengal, arabian sea, ganga or brahamputra river or indian ocean whichever is near by. The congress will never allow any honest person to do the right thing as they all are thieves to the core.. They have mastered the art of looting public money and slander campaigns.. They cant see a Narendra Modi as PM otherwise he will destroy their personal empires of billions of dollars which was looted from common Indian masses.. The congress has kept the common India poor and uneducated so that it can live on their ignorance..

I dont understand the mindset of those who are opposing Your & Baba Ramdev's noble cause. I mean what exactly is their problem? You all are just discharging your duty as concerned citizen of India.. If we remove corruption from India than whose benefit is that? Indian public is not a fool now and it can differentiate between good and evil.. something doesnt become automatically bad if RSS touches it.. if RSS or Modi were so bad people or if there was a single evidence against them.. I dont think congress and Italian Mafia would have waited a single minute to hang them and ban them.. they are just harping on to divert people's attention.. they dont have problem when anti nationals hold meetings in delhi and they take their turn to protect them but they use their brutal force against innocent citizen and warrior patriotic sanyasi of India.. I am ashamed by the fact that I am being ruled by such corrupt thugs

Arvind Ji.. A request to you.. Please dont talk rubbish about RSS.. Its because of RSS and its teaching of nationalism & high moral character, that RSS volunteers like me support anti corruption movement.. It doesnt matter to to who leads it whether its Anna or anybody else.. I will even support an animal who is going to fight against the corrupts & anti nationals.. What Sar Sanghchalak Bhagwat ji has said that many RSS volunteers like me supported anti corruption movement out of love for our motherland.. RSS is doing this job without seeking any publicity and its been doing this before you were born.. I just want you to be respectful as far as RSS is concerned. One of the reasons why there was low turnout in your Mumbai fasts this time was you thought that its all you who is responsible for maximum turnout in your Delhi protests. You fail to appreciate that it was support of patriotic organization like RSS which worked as wonder for anti corruption protests.

The congress funded & leftist leaning english media is doing stupid & dangerous campaign to malign one of the most patriotic organization of this country. The word Swayamsevak means the person who is self motivated to do Seva & doesnt look for anything in return. I wonder what makes "con"grOss people comment about RSS giving support to Anna's movement against corruption. As per these stupid Congies does corruption becomes good if RSS opposes it? Does terrorism & maoism becomes good because RSS opposes it? Does minority appeasement, Castism & lip services for poor becomes good because RSS opposes it? I mean there is no limit to Congis mental bankrupcy.

The "Con"grOss which was crying for following the parliamentary procedures was caught with its pents down when it allowed Rahul to speak on Janlokpal in zero hour without any previous notice. They murdered democracy in Rajya Sabha, when they didnt allowed the voting on the bill and shamelessly declared sine die. The ruling elites of congress think that they can rule the ignorant masses like the way they were ruling them till now. They fail to understand that we the young people of India dont have any past baggaes and majority of us have made their own destiny through hard work. "Con"GrOss= Corruption .. Its because of this simple equation the congress thinks whosoever is against corruption is against them.

For most of the people paying bribe is like getting raped mentally.. Majority doesnt want to give bribe but they are forced to do so if they have to get their work done. Just take a simple case of train tickets, the govt should have more and more trains available when there is festive season as more people travel to their home but they dont do it and it creates supply and demand constraints and there are always people who are willing to pay or take a bribe in such situations. In my view the bribe giver and taker, both are committing an offense but we have to see that most of the times bribe giver doesnt do it out of happiness. Since past many years, when I started understanding the situation in India, I came to conclusion that its the "Con"grOss which is root cause of all evils in India. They are the biggest communal and castist party in India. I am happy that people now can see through their design and force them to go in shell. But I know congress will try to confuse the common public and discredit the people who arer leading the movement like the way they are doing with Bhushans in CD case. They tried it with Anna, Baba Ramdev, Arvind kejariwal & Kiran Bedi too but couldnt succeed as majority of the people were able to see through their designs. I have a belief that Congress will not allow to pass a strong Lokpal as it will reach the Gandhi family and expose their corruption.

The best and often quoted definition of democracy is .. it’s the govt “of the people” “for the people” & “by the people” .. I think our politicians forgot “ Of & For” the people and you and me know that its majority of the times the poor and uneducated who generally have less idea about the real issues go for voting and we all so called educated individuals go on picnic on that day.. so political class only cared about those who vote them in power.. so in case of India “by the people” thing wasn’t functioning too..as lot many people are not casting their votes..

But now the politicians, specially from “con”gross party (as they know rural people vote for them) are afraid that if the middle and educated class awakens than it would be trouble for it in coming election..That’s what we all have to do.. we have to vote at any cost.. but we all educated indians have to take a pledge that we wont ever vote for congress.. You can vote for any other party but NOT congress.. that’s the only thing we have in our hand in this democracy. I am really happy that the discussion topic between youth has changed to corruption, nation and other burning issues instead of which movie was good and what cloths to wear.. It’s a transformation which will shape the destiny of India.. You guys keep on doing the good work.. individuals like me will support you in full capacity.. Our strategy should be two pronged

1) To continue awaken the masses.. specially the poor ones.. about the ills of corruption

2) Get involved in political process by tactically supporting the ones who stand for fight against corruption.. take the pledge from the candidates on stamp paper and make it legally binding for them..

In my view This two pronged approach is the only solution as we should not be involved actively in politics...

I have always believed that we small common people are not like Sun which will rise in morning and take away the whole darkness with it but we are small diyas and if we stand united we have our best chance of outshining the sun.

Vande Mataram.. Bharat Mata ki Jai.

मेरी कविताये:- कल का सपना आज की हकीकत

2011-12-07T16:20:00.003-06:00

चाहता हूँ कुछ गुजरे पल, बस मेरी ज़िन्दगी बन जाये,
कल रात का कोई ख्वाब, आज हकीकत में बदल जाये !

पानी पे चलने का हुनर , कल मुझको भी आ गया है ,
कोई जाये और ये बात , उन फरिश्तों को भी समझाए !

अपना ही पुराना चेहरा , अब याद भी नहीं आता ,
कोई नयी महक उठे , और मेरे बाग़ को फिर महकाए !

दरिया के बीच में खड़ा होकर , दिल सोचने लगा फिरसे ,
किश्ती को किनारे लगा दूँ , की यहीं डुबो दिया जाये !!

दरबार ऐ वतन में जब एक दिन- फैज़ अहमद फैज़

2011-11-26T13:03:00.005-06:00

दरबार ऐ वतन में जब एक दिन ,
सब जाने वाले जायेंगे ,
कुछ अपनी सजा को पहुचेंगे,
कुछ अपनी जजा ले जायेंगे !

ऐ ख़ाक नशीनों! उठ बैठो ,
वो वक़्त करीब आ पहुंचा है ,
जब तख़्त गिराए जायेंगे ,
जब ताज उछाले जायेंगे !

अब टूट उठेंगी जंजीरें ,
अब ज़िन्दानों की खैर नहीं ,
जो दरिया झूम के उठते हैं ,
तिनकों से ना टालने पायेंगे !

कटते भी चलो बढ़ते भी चलो ,
बाजु भी बहुत है सर भी बहुत ,
चलते भी चलो के अब डेरे ,
मंजिल पे ही डाले जायेंगे !

ऐ ज़ुल्म के मातो ! लब खोलो ,
चुप रहने वाले अब चुप कब तक ,
कुछ हश्र तो इनसे उठेगा ,
कुछ दूर तो नाले जायेंगे !!

मेरी कवितायेँ : फिर से एक नयी कहानी

2011-11-21T13:21:00.004-06:00

कोई फिरसे लिखे मुझपे अपनी कहानी ,
ऐ खुदा तू मुझे फिर से कोरा कागज़ कर दे ,

फिर रौशनी के लिए जलना है मुझे ,
उस गए धुंए को फिर से मोम कर दे ,

फिर एक नयी तक़दीर बनना है मुझे ,
मेरे हाथों की लकीरों को फ़ना करदे ,

फिर से उसी जड़ से उगना है मुझे ,
इस कटे मन के घावों को पूरा भर दे ,

Do You Know What You Really Want From Your Life?

2011-10-08T12:37:00.006-05:00

I am having some troubling times. One question is coming again & again in my mind for past several years. This question has troubled me in past & its troubling me now even more. The question is " What I really want from my life?". This was supposed to be very easy question to solve as there cant be many answers to this question. But still I think I am not able to answer this question. Why this question is so difficult to answer? I think I am still not able to find my core. There are certain things which I think might be my true calling. I dont have material desires but I want to do three things in my life;

1) First Thing: I want to open a school which gives good quality education to underpriviledged children in semi urban or rural areas at very nominal or no cost. As I believe education is the only tool which can change the face of India & the individual. Whatever I am today is because of education and I understand its importance very well. My late father always knew importance of education and always forced all siblings to never compromise while learning. He knew that education is the only tool which can bring anyone out of the clutches of poverty & help you in realising your dreams and make you better productive member of the society. He forced all my siblings & me to study & study very hard and its because of him, I am what I am today.

2) Second Thing: I want to open an old age home for neglected senior citizens. I am still amazed how so many Indians just abandon their parents in old age. The country where our scriptures says that since God cant be present in physical form everywhere thats why he created parents. I know some parents are also at fault as they are not able to adjust with changing times & habits of this modern age but still its duty of the children to take care of their parents. its not like that I didnt fight with my father. We had disagreement on many things & I know I have his stubborn nature in me. I miss his presence in my life. I never talked much with him but still when he was alive, it felt like there is some one whose hand is there on my head. I am what I am today is because of him. His strict discipline & way of simple living has taught me many thing. I wish I had some more years with him to let him know how much I admire him & how much I have learned from his own life. He is gone & sometimes I just wish that he would appear from somehwere and shout at me for sleeping so late on holidays. He never liked it and he had this habit of making the other person aware that he is not liking something. He was brutly blunt & honest to the core and I feel proud that I am his son. He was rarely tensed in any situation. He had great wealth of knowledge & lots of stories to tell for making his point. I have inherited some of his qualities. Although I havent been able to live with him much becuase of my education & job but feeling of his presence in my life was the guiding light & the support pillar around which my whole family revolved. My brother had good fortune of serving my father all these years. Yes it was very tough to deal with my father sometimes but every human has certain faults and true love exists when you can overlook the faults a little and focus more on care, goodwill & affection. So its necessary to give care, love & affection to old age when the parents truly need it. Munshi Premchand was the great writer in hindi language. I have read his one story by name "Budhi Kaki" in school in 5th class. That story is still fresh in my mind. He writes there "Budhapa Bahuda bachpan ka punaragaman hua karta hai" means " the old age is generally the repetition of childhood". I think he is very right as old people become more & more stubborn in many cases like the children and needs our special care & attention. I would request all new parents to take care of their parents like they take care of their kids.

3) Third Thing: I want to open a multi specialty hospital & medical college in remote corners of India, which will do treatment as very low or no cost to poor. They will certainly charge those who can afford to pay.

I know to fulfill these dreams I need to have lots of money and I am not the individual who has that kind of money. But still if I ever choose to do business in my life then these 3 things would be ultimate thing for which I would like to earn money.

Anyways when this going to happen is secret buried in future. I have always lived the life with the flow, tried to live life as it comes, face the challenges as & when life throws them to me. In my life I have experienced that the things after which I try to run after, are the things which I never get. I dont know whats the reason. May be its some unseen hand which wants me to stay away from certain things and guiding or pushing me to achieve something other. I think in this way because I need to have some logic through which my heart & mind can understand it too. Its very difficult situation for me when I my mind doesnt understand something. It makes me awake in nights & mad in days just to know why this has happened with me in this way. So to keep mind satisfied, I have built up this argument and I think my mind understands it well and it becomes easy for me to go on with flow of life.

But still I dont know what I want from my life and its very dangerous situation to be in. My condition sometimes becomes like a headless chicken who doesnt know where to go & what to do. The choice would have been as simple as like I get married to someone, have kids & just live like many others are living. Its fairly simple process which doesnt involve lots of thinking as you will become so much busy that probably you wont have time to think on "what you really want from your life". As I have seen many people like that. But is that what I really want to do? I still dont know.. What I know is I want to serve my motherland by any mean possible. There are examples like Vivekanand, Anna Hazare & Baba Ramdev in front of me to take the lessons from. But I am still figuring it out do I have this much courage to leave everything and just get immersed in big ocean of India? What will happen to some of my worldly desires which still keeps me going in present state? I have got one thing clear in my head that I love my country, I love India.. and there is a strong desire to serve people of this land so that we will again be known as world's guru in every field. All the great people of the world have told that you need to find something which you love and once you find it you will know how to create wonders with it. I know what I love but still there is lots of confusion for ways & means to do what you love.

I can directly take plunge in Baba Ramdev's movement & help him in his fight against high & mighty as I believe Babaji is doing great service to India & Indians by taking up the cause of common man. So is this the thing which I want to do? But I have some loans to pay & if I dont earn money than who is going to take care of that? I think I am going to postpone this decision to few more years so that I can settle my debts or may be its the excuse which I am taking for shying away from hard work ahead in that road. I am having some problem in deciding it. I also know that once who want to achieve or do something never talk too much about it and just do it. May be I need sometime to makeup my mind.. May be some past experiences are still haunting me.. May be I am not clear in my head what I am really seeking from this life as this life doesnt belong to me only.. some loved ones has right over it too.. So my dilemma continues.. Lucky are those people who really knew what they actually want.. Like Steve jobs.. he clearly knew he loved computers & technologies and wanted to make best use of them to produce marvelous gadgets for humanity.. Like Vivekanand ji knew that he wants to reestablish the respect for Sanatan Dharma in world.. I think he didnt knew it initially but Ramkrishnaji made him aware of this.. Like Baba Ramdev & Anna Hazare know that they want to see corruption free India & playing their bit.. These people clearly know what they want... But problem with me is I dont know what I really want.. I am stuck up sometimes in worldly desires & sometimes in lofty ideals of serving the humanity..

I think this is the situation with most of the common individuals like me.. I think this is the difference between ordinary & extra ordinary.. The extraordinary ones clearly knew from their early age what they really wanted to do with their life.. while the lesser mortal like me are still not clear what they really want to do.. I have not found my calling yet & I am still confused with this question.. I pray & hope that I find it out soon.. I hope that all those who are reading this blog also find their true calling so that we can live in a better world.. because until you love what you do , you dont bring the best in it.. I am a soul which is trapped in some body.. I want to be free and until I know my true calling I will remain trapped in boundation .. I pray to almighty that he guides my intellect in right direction and help me in choosing the right thing..

मेरी कवितायेँ ; कब तक

2011-10-08T12:13:00.003-05:00

इतना दर्द सहा है अब तक ,
लेकिन मूक रहूँ में कबतक ?

मन में उठते झंझावातों से,
अकेला लड़ता रहूँ में कबतक ?

उसकी यादों की आगों में ,
यूँ ही जलता रहूँ में कबतक ?

हर कदम पे धोखा खाकर ,
सब कुछ सहता रहूँ में कबतक ?

खुद ही जल के , यूँ ही मिट के,
आंसूं पीता रहूँ में कबतक ?

उसने दिए हमेशा ज़ख्म है मुझको ,
ये ज़ख्म सीता रहूँ में कबतक ?

उसको चाहां बस यही खता थी मेरी ,
इस खता को रोता रहूँ में कबतक ?

लेकिन फिर भी इंतज़ार उसका है मुझको ,
ये इंतज़ार करता रहूँ में कबतक ??

Steve Jobs: Its NOT years in your LIFE but LIFE in your YEARS which counts

2011-10-06T09:36:00.006-05:00

I woke up in morning.. No not exactly morning but around 10:30 AM as its Dashahara, a holiday, today. I was planning to go to Garba ground to see last day of beautiful festival's last Garba this year... My friend came in the morning and he was switching the channels and I heard the shocking news of Steve Jobs demise. Though there were news about his falling health in media and talks about how he is losing lots of weight and he may have few weeks left in his life but believed that with so much advancement in medical a super rich like Steve will win the battle eventually. He was living in US which is again the seat of learning for majority of miracles in modern medicine. This again boosted my confidence that the Tech Guru & one of the world's greatest innovator would something of miracle sort and will defeat the disease like he has defeated the market forces with his great innovations all these years.

He breathed life in APPLE when people have started writing its obituary in 1997. It was almost God like thing the way he made APPLE sit on pinnacle of the glory from ashes of destruction. APPLE's share were at $4 when he took over in 1997. Micheal Dell even told that if he was the CEO then he thinks APPLE is in such a bad shape that he would just sell it in pieces.. Thank God that instead of Micheal, it was Steve who was the CEO and today the APPLE's share are worth around 400 times of what they were in 1997. What he achieved in 56 years of his life is a lesson for all around the world. His hard work & genius made APPLE world's biggest company as per market valuation and its such a wonderful miracle in just 15 years. He has co authoured some 300 patents in his life of 56 years that too without having any formal education in engineering.

His life is like almost a fairy tale. The ups & down of his life, the trauma of being thrown out of his own company by someone whom you have chosen as CEO then returning back to the same company after 10 years and making its world's biggest company in next 15 years, changing the way people look & feel computers, their music, their phones , bringing extra-ordinariness from the ordinariness and simplicity with all style & charm.. What a wonderful life you have lived Steve.. You have truly made others counting for life in their number of years rather than years in their life..

I have always believed in one concept in my life.. I know I am not some big shot but still I have always believed in that you have to define your core values on which you are never ever going to compromise come what may. I have defined few bunch of them and I will write in detail about them in some other blog.. But for present context the first & foremost core value that I believe in is NEVER EVER to run behind money in my life.. Money or wealth can be byproduct of something that you are doing but it can never be your prime motive for doing certain things.. When you make money as prime motive for doing any activity then ultimately greed takes over and you start doing rat race for gaining more & more money.. you start overlooking the facts related to ethics and ways & means of making that money.. You start becoming a lesser human being and start ignoring basic tenets of humanity.. the criminals & corrupts behave in just this fashion.. For achieving something great & beautiful out of this life you prime motive should be greater benefit of humankind & society in general & I believe Steve just did that.. Through his innovations he always wanted to give something better to society and money was just a byproduct of his activities.. I just now have seal of Steve Jobs on one of my core values..

One person was able to change so much because he believed in his vision & hard work. I dont have words to write what I am feeling now as world has lost someone who could have done so much more in coming years. His was the one of the most productive life of a human being. The question which comes to my mind is why God takes away such a wonderful person at such a young age when many corrupts & thugs are living so happily. These thugs & corrupts are nothing but burden on mother earth & leeches who are getting fatter every day by sucking blood of common innocent people. The likes of Lalus, Mulayams, Mayas, Raj Thakreys, Karunanidhis, A Rajas, Gandhis, Digvijays, Sibals, Sharad Pawars and many more thugs like them keep on living and making earth a more worse place to live while likes of Vivekananda & Steve Jobs die young when they could have lived and added much more to quality of human life as a whole.

I am really saddened by the fact that Steve Jobs is no more. I have dropped the plan to see Garba tonight & would love to read more about this amazing human being. I know he wasnt all noble in his deeds but he was one of the greatest creative brains who has really changed the way we do some of the things in our daily life and for me whoever brings the change in quality of human life through his own personal genius is a person who deserves my salute & gratitude. He was bold in his thoughts & had the will power to succeed against all odds. This world is truly going to miss you Steve.. You were among the very few human beings, who would never accept the status quo and think different.. Its this thought which is seed of the great innovations & marvels in human history.. I will proudly say to future generations that I lived in times of Steve Jobs.. May you take a rebirth and born in India & solve the common man's problems through your creative genius.

मनुष्य जीवन का एक ही पक्ष क्यूँ पहचानता है ?
शायद जानता है परन्तु अनजान बना रहना चाहता है !

सागर में यदि मोती है तो तूफ़ान भी तो है ,
मंथन में यदि अमृत है तो विष भी तो है ,

सूर्य में अगर जीवन है तो ताप भी तो है ,
बादलों में बरसात ही नहीं बिजली भी तो है ,

वृक्षों में अगर छाया है तो पतझड़ भी तो है ,
पर्वतों में यदि ऊंचाई है तो दुर्गमता भी तो है ,

पौधा यदि फुल खिलाता है तो वह कांटे भी देता है ,
चेहरा अगर ख़ुशी दिखाताहै तो आंसूं भी देता है ,

सूर्य केवल उदय नहीं अस्त भी होता है ,
फुल केवल खिलता नहीं मुरझाता भी तो है ,

मिलन यदि है कहीं तो वहीँ विरह भी तो है ,
जन्म यदि है कहीं तो वहीँ मृत्यु भी तो है ,

और गीता ने कहा है मृत्युं ही एकमात्र सम्भावना है ,
अतः हमें जीवन को समय के अनुसार ढालना है ,

जीवन तो हमेशा से ही विपरीतताओं का संगम है ,
यही बात समझ नहीं पाटा ये हमारा मन है ,

जीवन में दोनों पक्षों का सामंजस्य जरुरी है ,
सुख दुःख ऐसी रेखाएं है जो एक दुसरे के बिना अधूरी है ,

जीवन के झरने से सुख का संगीत तब तक नहीं निकलता,
जब तक वो संघर्ष की चट्टानों से निकलकर आगे नहीं बढ़ता !!

मेरी कवितायेँ : परिवर्तन वेला

2011-09-11T08:09:00.003-05:00

चाहता है मेरा हृदय एक अभिनव परिवर्तन,
अंधकार को चीर कर हो सूर्य किरणों का आगमन,

पक्षियों के कलरव में नव अनुराग हो ,
झरनों की कल कल में सप्त सुरों का राग हो ,

वृक्ष अपनी हरीतिमा से भारत भूमि आच्छादित करें,
मंद सुगन्धित पवन हृदय आल्हादित करे,

अज्ञान के तिमिर में ज्ञान दीपक ज्योत जले,
भारतवासी भारत को स्वर्गतुल्य करें संकल्प ले ,

केवल हृदय के विचार नहीं , केवल भाषणों के अम्बार नहीं,
केवल संकल्पों पे संकल्प नहीं, केवल विकल्पों के विकल्प नहीं,

कुछ ऐसा की गंग-धार से मानवता पवन बने,
कुछ ऐसा की संपूर्ण विश्व देवभूमि की पद-धावन बने,

कुछ ऐसा की जय भारत घोष से, गूंजे धरती और आकाश,
कुछ ऐसा की भारतवासी न रहे, हीन क्षुधित और निराश,

मस्तक पर जिसके हिम किरीट, सागर पद प्रक्षालन करे,
गंगा सतलुज केश राशियाँ, अमरनाथ मुकुट मणि बने,

कला संस्कृति का अद्भुत संगम, भगवन जहाँ अवतरित हुए,
क्यूँ न फिर वह देव भूमि, पुनः जगत का गुरु बने?

हम वर्तमान सुद्रढ़ करें, उस स्वर्णिम भारत के लीये,
सर्वस्व अपना होम करें, उस नवोदित भारत के लीये,

यह देवभूमि फिर क्षितिज पटल पे , सूर्य सामान दमकेगी,
भारत के पुत्रों की प्रतिभा, द्विगुणित होके चमकेगी,

स्वप्न हमारे सत्य होंगे , वो समय अवश्य आएगा,

निर्मल शीतल गंगा जल ,
लगे ना जिसको अमृतधारा !

पावन भारत की इस भूमि को ,
जिसने माता कह ना पुकारा !

तुंग हिमालय के लिए,
जिसके हृदय में प्यार नहीं !

ऐसे देशद्रोही को भारत में,
रहने का अधिकार नहीं !!

मेरी कवितायेँ : सूर्य और ये जीवन

2011-07-28T12:23:00.002-05:00

क्या तुमने कभी सूरज को ढलते हुए देखा है?
क्या तुमने कभी उसे पानी में पिघलते देखा है ?

क्या तुमने कभी उसे बादलों में छुपते देखा है ?
क्या तुमने कभी उसे पहाड़ों में गुमते देखा है ?

क्या तुमने किसी पंछिं को उसे पकड़ते देखा है ?
क्या तुमने उसकी पहली किरण को खुद से छूते देखा है ?

किसी पर्वत की चोटी पर एकाग्रचित्त जब ये अनुभव आता है ,
प्रकृति और मनुष्य जीवन का साथ समझ आता है !

सूरज का उदय और अस्त होना इस जीवन की परिभाषा है !
ये सृष्टि का आधार और मोक्ष प्राप्ति की अभिलाषा है !

इस जीवन का अंतिम सत्य तो उस परम से एकाकार है !
हर रोम जिसे चाहता है वो उस अद्भुत अद्वितीय से साक्षात्कार है !!

अब भी उनकी गलियों से, जब गुजरना होता है ,
एक कसक सी उठती है , हर ज़ख्म फिर रोता है !

मेरे लहजे में तो खुदा भी , कुछ कमी नहीं देख पाया ,
फिर भी मेरे साथ ही क्यूँ , हादसा ये होता है !

अपनी हस्ती को मिटा के , जिसे ज़िन्दगी दी थी मैंने ,
वही शख्स मेरे घर की , क्यूँ बुनियाद तोड़ता है !

मौत है उसके दामन में , ये जानता है दिल भी ,
गुनाह ऐ इश्क करने का , अंजाम बस यही होता है !!

2011-07-23T10:27:00.002-05:00

इस तरह कुछ लम्हे ज़िन्दगी का रुख बदल देंगे,
उसने सोचा भी नहीं मैंने बताया भी नहीं !

बातों ही बातों में कुछ ऐसे गलत फैसले होंगे ,
समझते तो सभी थे, उस वक़्त याद आया ही नहीं !

वो घर जिसे बनाने में सदियाँ सी गुज़र गयी ,
गिराते वक़्त कीसी को एक आंसूं आया ही नहीं !

ज़ख्म लगते ही कीसी के घाव भी भर गए हैं ,
ज़माना बदल गया है , मुझे समझ आया ही नहीं !!

“Con”gress Ka Haath.. Bhrashtachaar Ke Saath. But "Con"gress Beware of Wrath of A True Warrior Sanyasi

Sansad Se Lekar Sadkon Tak.. Jungle Ka Kanoon Yahan..

Jisne Bhi Awaz Uthayi.. Hota Uska Khoon Yahan..

Har Kursi Hai Andhi Bahri.. Har Kursi Hatyari Hai..

Har Kursi Ke Paye Me.. Panjikrit Gaddari Hai..

Lagta Hai Ab to BHARAT me .. Chandi Ka Nartan Hoga

Parivartan To Hoga.. Lekin Khooni Parivartan Hoga..

(Unknown Poet)

There is a very famous incident in Indian history which serves as lesson for all rulers, some rulers take positive cues from it, mend their ways, treat themselves as servants of public and keep public interest above theirs while others who are drunk in power, refuse to learn the lesson, act arrogantly and again become another example in long list.

The famous incident is about a corrupt ruler’s abuse and insult of a patriotic and intelligent teacher. The teacher takes a vow to uproot the mighty ruler and later on gets success in his mission. You might have got the idea about what I am talking about. The might corrupt ruler was Dhananand and the Teacher was Shri Vishnugupt , whom we know as Chankya.

This incident came to my mind when I saw how the corrupt thugs of Italian controlled Mafia party heaped insult after insult on a patriotic sanyani, who was just demanding the return of ill gotten money from foreign land and end of corruption in India. The Mafia party was so afraid of saffron cloths of the sanyasi that they had to arrest him in night at 2 am, that too after talking to him and giving him assurance that they will act on his demands. But the Sanyasi wanted a concrete action from the corrupt thugs and was hoping against the hope that these people will give him that. He was hoping that they will issue an ordinance on declaring the black money as national asset and those who have stashed away that money would be declared as criminals and given very hard punishment.

He wanted the corrupt thugs to issue the ordinance as he has seen how they have been fooling the Anna Hazare and others on Lokpal bill. If the corrupt thugs wanted it they could have done that but this would have given them so much trouble because they had to act after that and Indian public, which has become aware about all the wrong doings and its effect on them, would pressurize them to act and the supreme court which is now acting as very much independent agency would have got the corrupt thugs in more trouble. All these 64 years the corrupt thugs of Italian Mafia Party has looted this nation systematically. Its them and their close one who has billions of dollars stashed away in foreign banks. This is making them so nervous that they cant let this thing happen otherwise their queen bee will be exposed and public in this information age would be able to see how systematically this Gandhi Nehru clan and its cronies have looted our nation.

That’s why these corrupt thugs started bribing the whole nation through mass bribing schemes such a farmer loan waiver scheme or the bigger scandal in form of Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Guaranty Scheme. These schemes are nothing but mass bribery scheme and the corrupt thugs have ruled India long enough to know that Indians suffer from short term memory loss. They know that Indians would just forget what these corrupt thugs would be doing now and as central elections are 3 years away, they can make Indians fool again and through some mass bribery scheme and fanning communal violence and minority appeasement they can dream of coming to power again. These corrupt thugs don’t have long term well being of India and are just focus on short term gain of winning elections by hook or crook and punishing the patriots of this land to appease certain section of minorities and ego massaging of individuals.

I just cant believe that the Italian Mafia Party once had Sardar Patel and Subhash Chndra Bose as its members. Their souls must be suffering with pains that why at all they wanted freedom from British? If you don’t even have right to sit on peaceful protest and the administration can still beat up the hungry and thirsty sleeping children, women and elderly men, in middle of night than what kind of freedom and democracy is this? Don’t you think that this incident brings sad memory of Jaliawala bagh back to your mind? The situation was same, all people were doing just peaceful protest and General Dyre, a foreigner, ordered his Indian policemen to fire and kill people. The Indian policemen in his command didn’t even hesitate to kill their own peaceful countrymen and this time you have Italian Mafia, a foreigner, ordering the same thing on sleeping innocent countrymen in middle of night.

The pet dog who calls Osama Bin Laden as Osama Ji, visits the home of terrorists and cast doubts on security forces of India has guts to call a patriotic sanyasi as thug and we all just listen, smile and look away as if its not your or mine problem. What kind of people have we become? Just imagine that if these corrupt thugs can do such lowly acts with such an extraordinary individual as Baba Ramdev, what they could do to us or what they have been doing with this nation all these years?

I don’t have any hesitation in saying that this Italian Mafia party is root of all evils of India. In front of your eyes and in this information age they have been able to do scams of such a greater magnitude as 2G spectrum scam, Adarsh Society Scam, Food grain scam and many more than just think what they have been doing in past? Infact these thugs started the scams in 1947 itself by doing Geep scandal. This party is just meant for looting and siphoning away India’s wealth like the way British did for 200 years. The Nehru Gandhi Clan and many congressmen being close to Britishers knew and perfected the art of siphoning money and stashing away in foreign lands. The Italian Mafia party never wanted the Indians to be educated as they feared that if all become educated they wont be able to fool the people. They again learnt it from British, who after becoming a dominant power in India, first destroyed the indigenous education system which suited them.

Italian Mafia Party cant fool all the people all the time now. I think they are still thinking that young educated mass doesn’t matter as they don’t go for voting and are just arm chair activists. I know there is lots of truth in it and may be the Italian Mafia Party may again get away with it. But I know one thing for sure that all these things are atleast making people aware of what kind of scoundrels are ruling us.

I am weeping and my heart is bleeding to see whats happening under this stupid, money hungry, corrupt, anti national Congress party rule. I am sick of these Gandhis and congress who are continuously looting India. Who are selling soul of this nation to anti nationals and traitors. Its because of people like these the tolerant Hindus are becoming militants and trying to avenge the humiliation of Bharat Mata. This Italian Mafia Party is cancer of Indian society and the Gandhis and their cronies are like AIDS who are eating us from with in.

Come on my patriotic Indians lets throw these bloody rouges out from the scene of indian politics. I urge all nationalistic like minded Indians to start speaking and telling truth whenever they get chance. We need to awaken the mass. I try to do it whenever I am in any public place such as trains, buses, local transports, in social gatherings, office talks with colleagues. I prefer travelling in sleeper class of train so that I get the chance to meet more and more people and make them understand the dangers in front of the nation and I make sure that everybody understands my point of you and urge them to vote in every election. I take their pledge that they will vote in all elections to come.. I doesnt matter for me if they vote for BJP or anyone but they should vote as its the only way we can play part in building India..

I urge you to find your way to play your part in nation building.. I make sure that I too go and vote.. I know we are not like sun which can remove the darkness in one go but we are like small diyas which when placed together, have the best chance of outshining the sun.. Come on young and patriotic indians show these bloody corrupts and media thugs that India is going to be ruled by honest and patriotic indians and not by corrupt thugs.

come on indians.. I urge all like minded indians to step up their protests wherever they can.. it may be through blogs, through open talks, at hotels where you go for lunch or dinner, at parks, students can do it in their campus.. if media isnt doing its job and becoming a stooge of this corrupt congress than we have to play our part in saving this nation's soul.. come on you tigers of india and show the corrupt MMS, the Italian and their cronies that we cant take this anymore..

If we dont register our protest they will feel that we dont care about our nation anymore and just busy with earning our money and living our life casually.. its upto us now.. we have to show them through our deeds that we are still awake and wont take this crap of corrupt thugs anymore..

They have played with pride of a Sanyasi who doesn’t want anything for himself. He has enough fame through his good deeds. He has enough resources to sustain himself for life long. He is not having any immediate family which is getting benefitted out of his fame. He is Sanyasi , Patriotic Sanyasi like Chankya and Italian Party should know what happened after a corrupt thug insulted and humiliated an honest and patriotic Sanyasi..

I urge you to play your part in making of this nation.. it would be really late if we keep silence and allow corrupt Italian Mafia Party and its thugs to play their dirty games.. they have sucked the blood and money out of india for past 64 years.. lets show them the boot now.. this party and Gandhi family doesnt deserve to be part of india's ruling elite.. vote vote vote and vote out this bloody thugs from corridors of power .. These congress thugs are not what we deserve.. come on Indians..

Vande Mataram..

Jai Hind..

What It Takes For The Ordinary To Become The “Extra”Ordinary

2010-04-11T11:00:00.000-05:00

In everyone’s life, there are some moments, when he or she is made to choose between difficult alternatives. Many times, one alternative will be a path of truthfulness, courage, honesty and all good virtues that we read about in our moral science class and the other would be that of all opposite to the first one. The first path, as we all know, is very difficult to follow and there are very few people on this earth who possess the inner strength to do so. Those who choose to follow the right path are remembered throughout the history as role models and inspire the future generations because against all odds they decided to follow the right path. This chance of being great is given to all in their life, the amount of greatness may vary but I believe that the chance is given to all. I want to draw your attention to one beautiful aspect of choosing this right path. Almost in all cases when someone decides to choose it, he or she generally does it for others and not for himself or herself. If he or she does it for themselves than it would become largely an act of selfishness and it won’t be remembered for long and that act will die with the person’s demise. I think this is what defines the difference between an ordinary and an extraordinary. Its that little extra for which we all must strive for when the life throws up the challenge upon us.

I know its not easy to do so in many circumstances and very few are capable of making the right choice in their life. If all would have been capable of doing it than earth would have become heaven. Its been a long time since I have written something meaningful. As good writing or performing any other art form is just like worshipping your God, which you have to do in proper frame of mind. A lot of important developments happened last year, which were of earth shaking magnitude , such as economic collapse of reckless western capitalist economies and big companies as Lehman Brothers, election of Obama as US president, even after no performance and so many bomb blasts reelection of Congress government at center and in Maharashtra, left’s weaning influence in West Bengal , quick rise of China as world’s new superpower, death of Prabhakaran in Sri Lanka and destruction of Pakistan by hands of its own Bhasmasurs (I predicted this long ago in my previous blogs). Some other important developments on domestic front are; abusive winner competition between Thackreys, divorce of Amar and Mulayam , arrest of ULFA’s tope leadership (except Paresh Barua), astonishing growth in Bihar’s GDP and RSS’s open attack on Shiv Sena’s and MNS’s anti India ideology and the ghastly terror attacks of naxals on security forces. All these developments will go long way in shaping the world’s and India’s destiny.

I kept my tabs on all these issues and wanted to write on all of them at that time, but there was a lot going on in personal life to concentrate on all these things. Well than in that case I have not been able to make the right choice I believe. Anyways a lesson is learnt and its learned well. Last few months I spent lots of time in learning about myself and who I really am. I haven’t been able to figure that out but its always good to give some quiet moments to reflect back on what you have done and what you should have done to make your present more like what you want to see in future. The problem with most of us is we just crib about our present and think that future is going to be good. What we don’t realize most of the times is that its our present deeds, which decides what our future is going to be. The decision that we are going to take in our present moment is going to be basis of our future. This thought reinforces my belief in theory of Karma where its often said that as you sow so shall you reap.

I believe most of us might have heard about Mr Steven Covey. He is a great writer and his book “7 Habits of Highly Successful People” has a cult following. I haven’t read that book but recently I came across one of his principles. Its known as 90-10 principle. This principle states that of all things happening with you its approximately 10 % on which you have no control but remaining 90% in your life is decided by your reaction to that 10 %. He gives a wonderful example. It goes like suppose you are getting ready for office in morning and your mother is preparing breakfast for you. Your sister also has to go to school but she is helping the mother too. Mother tells her to give you the tea that she prepared for you, since your sister is also in hurry, she accidently spills the tea on your office cloths. Your instant reaction in most of the cases would be that you will shout at her and this will upset your sister and your mother. After this shouting in morning your day at office will also be worse and so is your sister’s day at school. Now suppose if your reaction to this would have been much calmer and mature than your and all your loved ones day would have been better. The tea got spilled and we know that we don’t have any control over that but our reaction to that incident would have made a difference.

So its always these extra small things, which if kept in mind can lead to doing extraordinary things in life. I know we all cant be like sun, which can dispel the ignorance of darkness in one go, but we all can be like small lamps, which if put together gives the best chance of outshining the sun.

आ फिर से मुझे छोड़ के जाने के लिए आ

(let it be enmity, still come.. to pain my heart
come once again , even if only to desert me)

पहले से मरासिम न सही फिर भी कभी तो
रस्म - औ - रह दुनिया की निभाने के लिए आ

(Relation isnt same as before, but still sometime
come, just to fulfill the customs and ways of this world)

किस किस को बताएँगे जुदाई का सबब हम
तू मुझ से खफा है तो ज़माने के लिए आ

( How many people will I explain the cause of break up ?
if you are mad at me, come just for the sake of this world)

कुछ तो मेरे पिन्दार - इ -मुहब्बत का भरम रख
तू भी कभी मुझ को मानाने के लिए आ

( Have some concern for the pride of my love
some day, come just to appease me )

एक उम्र से हूँ लज्ज़त - इ - गिरिया से भी महरूम
ए राहत - इ - जान मुझ को रुलाने के लिए आ

( For a lifetime i have been devoid even of the taste of tears
oh peace-of-mind, come just to make me cry)

अब तक दिल - इ - खुश फहम को तुझ से है उम्मीदें
ये आखरी शम्मा भी भुझाने के लिए आ

( My heart still harbors hopes from you
come, just to put off even this last flame)

माना की मुहब्बत का छुपाना है मुहब्बत
चुपके से कीसी रोज़ जताने के लिए आ

( Agreed, silencing your love is the real form of love
some day, come to silently express your love)

जैसे तुझे आते हैं न आने के बहाने
ऐसे ही कीसी रोज़ न जाने के लिए आ

( The way you find excuses to not come,
some day, come with an excuse to stay forever)

मेरी कवितायेँ : अस्तित्व का संघर्ष

2009-10-15T02:35:00.004-05:00

हृदय को निराशा की घटाओं ने घेरा है ,

दीया हो गया जरुरी चारों और अँधेरा है !

इस अँधेरे को चीरकर आशा की किरण दिखती है
परन्तु अपना गंतव्य मिलने में बहुत देर लगती है !

कहीं मेरा अस्तित्व खो न जाए इन अंधेरों में

प्रेरणा मिलती है सागर की लहरों में !

जिस तरीके से ये लहरें बाधाये तोड़ जाती है

उसी तरह संघर्ष से सफलता मिल जाती है !

जो नहीं पकड़ पाता सही अवसर का हाथ

जो नहीं सुन पाता अपने हृदय की बात !

वो मनुष्य प्रगति के पथ से विचलित हो जाता है

उसका अस्तित्व उसे धिक्कारता है जो संघर्ष नहीं कर पाता है !!

मेरे मन की इस हालत को , कोई क्यूँ नही समझ रहा है !

ख्वाब सुहाने दिखा के मुझको , छोड़ गया गहरी नींद में शायद
आँख खुली है फ़िर भी दिल क्यूँ , दीदार को उसके तरस रहा है !

छूकर तो देखता कभी वो , अहसास उसे फ़िर होता शायद ,
जमी हुयी इस बर्फ के नीचे, एक अंगारा दहक रहा है !

जाना ही था छोड़ के उसको , मैंने ग़लत समझा था शायद ,
उसकी यादों की प्यासी जमीं पे , आंखों का सावन बरस रहा है !!

ET Prodigy 2009: Case Study and My Solution

2009-10-06T22:55:00.005-05:00

ET Prodigy is doing a great service for all of us young ordinary Indians by letting us participate in such events. Competitions like this are common norms outside India but I must congratulate ET for democraticisng this big event for us. The case study may look simple in first glance but as you dig deeper you will find that its very challenging one and you really have to thibnk out of box if you want to give proper solution. I tried my best and waiting for the restults to be announced. I know there will be lots of people with good ideas but with my limited knowledge I could come up with mine. So I am just having my fingers crossed.. Here is the case study..

Case Brief:
Arvind Apte is employed at an Infrastructure consulting firm in a senior position. He has been involved in multiple projects with International financial and labour organizations; focused towards creating more inclusive and sustainable growth in India. Apte has identified the potential for a viable business model catering to this space, and understands the need to contribute directly towards these initiatives. Apte has hence decided to resign from his present job and start an organization that will create social impact. Today at his farewell dinner, his colleagues kept probing him about his new enterprise. As he was driving back, Apte felt that he had not given enough thought to his new organization’s business model, in particular, thinking through ways and means to ensure self sustainability of the enterprise while realizing the mission and social goals.
The question was still lingering in his mind as he parked the car in his garage. What
should be the focus of his organization? Should it be ‘To develop underprivileged job seekers into job creators’ or ‘To support capability building and scaling of existing ventures managed by underprivileged individuals/ communities’ The chosen statement would set the course for Apte’s planning and implementation in his home state of Maharashtra over the next 3 years.
If Apte chooses the first statement, ‘To develop underprivileged job seekers into job creators’, the organization would be called Cascade World. Cascade World will work towards identifying young entrepreneurs who are between 21-35 years of age from under-privileged backgrounds (household income < Rs.5000 per month). Cascade World would reach out to the underprivileged communities through its employees and volunteers. The organization would also identify counselors, who will guide the young individual entrepreneurs throughout the project’s lifecycle. The counselors would be individuals with established business operations or salaried persons working at a corporate in Maharashtra. Once entrepreneurs are identified, they would be coached by Cascade World employees and volunteer counselors. Business plans would be developed and Cascade World may decide to provide the seed capital ranging from 1 lakh to 5 lakhs. Apte believes the opportunity for Cascade World lies in bringing together the underprivileged youth, the counselors and the financing institutions. There are several enabling factors 1. The number of underprivileged youth in Maharashtra is high 2. Corporate Social Responsibility has become a buzz world in the Corporate world and counselors would be available easily If Apte chooses the second statement, ‘To support capability building and scaling of existing ventures managed by underprivileged individuals/ communities’ the organization would be called Sustain World. Sustain World will work towards providing individuals, institutions, with strategies and skills through which they will be able to strengthen and/ or scale up their livelihood strategies. Sustain World would reach out to underprivileged individuals and communities through its employees and volunteers. Once the group/ individuals are selected, Sustain World would provide inputs and advisory relating to areas such as skill building, planning, tactical execution plans, improved understanding of business that would help enhance their revenue earning potential. As he went to bed, Apte was grappling with similar challenges for Cascade World and Sustain World.
1. What would it take for the model to become self sustaining and emerge as a viable proposition?
2. What process would Cascade World apply to identify individual entrepreneurs? Alternatively how would Sustain World identify individuals / communities to provide advisory services?
3. How many people can Cascade World or Sustain World impact in the first three years? How can the model be made scaleable?
Here’s how YOU can help.
Instructions for submitting your response:
All entries are required to be structured in the following format. Entries that do not fulfill the criteria given above will be rejected.
• Page 1: Mention personal details, stream of participation, education and experience.
• Page 2: Summary of your model. You may choose either of the business models mentioned in the case. The summary should describe the salient features of your model and the reasons behind your choice of model (in 250-300 words.
• For your chosen model, please provide answers to Questions 1, 2 and 3 (in 350-400 words each) with each answer on a separate page, and in the sequence as provided in the case brief.

Evaluation Criteria:
All entries would be evaluated basis the following criteria:
• Feasibility and Sustainability
• Originality and Novelty
• Target Market Identification
• Scalability

My Solution For Case Study:-
Summary and Reason for Selected Model from Case Study -
Mr. Apte, in my view, the objective of the case study is to have more inclusive and sustainable growth in Maharashtra by positively impacting lives of underprivileged population through self sustainable economic model and later implementing its success throughout India. My observation says that both proposed models are not mutually exclusive and main differences between them are; their potential of being self sustainable and scalable after some time, age limit of targeted individuals and amount of positive change in first 3 years. I too believe that we have to be the pivot of change that we want to see and feel honored to be your adviser for such a noble cause.

Keeping objective and time frame in mind, I would like you to choose Sustain World (SW) model as practicality says, we can expect milk sooner from a young cow than a new born calf. Selected candidates for SW will already have some experience in business activities so raising their capabilities would be comparatively easy and the time and effort in “first few steps” that are going to be used for identifying candidates and their businesses for Cascade World (CW), will be less for SW.

I would like to implement SW model primarily on the lines of cooperative units such as Amul and also look into diversification of existing product profile for selected individuals / communities or starting a new venture if existing doesn’t look promising enough.

I think that an ideal solution for achieving ultimate objective would be using strengths of both models together but you haven’t given me that liberty for “first 3 years.” so later the experience gained by SW can be utilized for starting CW like subsidiary. This combined entity will create a bigger positive impact.

I hope that you would be satisfied with my analysis of the matter.

Mr. Apte, in next three pages I will try to provide solutions for doubts that you have in mind regarding Sustain World model as per best of my abilities.

1. What would it take for the model to become self sustaining and emerge as a viable proposition?

Mr. Apte, as I understand from your profile, you have many contacts with international financial and labor organizations. CSR too has become a buzzword for lots of big organizations, who would be happy to send their experts for any worthy initiative and there are various government schemes, charitable foundations and NGOs which can be source of our initial funding. We can have lots of volunteers from students of business schools. We should work upon creating a self sustaining model that not only provides employment but also takes care of local ecological system, health, social and security issues of people belonging to SW initiative.

To make this model self sustaining and viable proposition we have to search for innovative and creating individuals / communities and their skill sets, reducing fixed costs of ventures, suggesting methods for improving production process and quality of goods, adding new products as per skills and market requirements, marketing their goods to new markets and creating new customers / retaining existing ones. There are various ways through which we can do that, few of them would be

1) We should have very few permanent employees whose salary will be generated from revenue sharing on sells through SW outlets in major cities. Most of the workforce should be made from motivated volunteers.
2) I am really impressed with the way Amul (GCMMF) cooperative, Shri Mahila Grah Udyog and Grameen Bank model works. So we should keep in mind such cooperative based models or self help group models for production of goods while giving consultancy services.
3) We should try to create new customers. One example would be tying up with hotels, retail malls or airlines for selling low price goods such as clay items and handicrafts. These restaurants and malls will add cost of these items to the bills exceeding certain amount. I think that those who are spending thousand rupees on cloths or food won’t mind spending some 15-20 Rs extra for a noble cause. Another way would be marketing these goods through religious organizations or convincing big companies to give these items as office gifts.
4) For customers who are not close to SW outlets, SW can reach them by creating a website for marketing and selling its goods.

There can be many ideas like above and I would discuss them in detail once we meet.

2. How would Sustain World identify individuals / communities to provide advisory services?

Mr. Apte, in my view identifying individuals / communities is the most important step for success of SW. For doing this we should focus on a single district first and start survey through our volunteers who will use population data from NGOs or government departments. We should modify this data for our use by considering few factors. Such as;

1) Classifying these individuals and communities on the basis of type of area they live in like urban, semi urban, rural or tribal and having some shops / ventures, then combining it with household income less than 10,000 Rs. per month for urban area, 7000 Rs for semi urban area and 3000 Rs for rural area. It would be beneficial as some government schemes as Swarnajayanti Gram Swarozgar Yojana, give loans only to rural population.
2) In India work generally passes from one generation to another, so we can identify communities on basis of traditionally backwardness such as cobblers, pottery makers, artisans, milkman, carpenters or blacksmiths keeping in mind income criteria in point 1 and their present work profile. This would be beneficial as their expertise will come handy for starting cooperative units of their respective fields.
3) Farmers and nomads (cattle herds, shepherds) with annual income less than 40,000 Rs. can be identified for SW initiative.
4) We can have education as one criterion. Individuals with education till 10th - 12th standard and household income less than 3000 Rs from rural or semi urban area hold lots of potential. With communication barriers coming down, we can advice and train them to switch career in some different field such as owing / managing rural BPOs.

Once we have made our list than we should reorganize it on the basis of their residing area, skills, traditional backwardness and education.

For identified communities the idea to move forward would be to create a cooperative unit of artisans or pottery makers so that they can market their products effectively. These units will act in synergy with each other. We would prefer that under one cooperative group we have members belonging to same area but they can be from different places too and for preventing communication gap between them we will provide them with affordable mobile phones.

For identified individuals we can groom them with lots of professional advice, equipments and finding new consumers to make their business a bigger success.

3. How many people can Sustain World impact in the first three years? How can the model be made scaleable?

Lao Tzu said "Give a Man a Fish, Feed him for a day. Teach a Man to Fish, Feed him for a lifetime." Over a period of time, the impact of SW model in providing inclusive growth can be tremendous because it too involves teaching people “how to fish.” Since for data collection I would like you to select a district which is close to some big cities like Mumbai or Pune so Ahmednagar or Raigadh would be best fit. If head or main lady or primary earning member of the household is positively affected then whole family will also be affected in similar way. If we keep average size of the family members as 6 then for first 3 years, my estimate says that we can affect at least 3,000 to 5,000 people and considering many of them would have families; their actual number may stand at 17,000 to 28,000. You might know that in start Shri Mahila Grah Udyog was having only 7 members but as of now it has around 42,000.

Scalability is one of the embedded characteristics of my plan for Sustain World model. Once we get success in our first chosen district, we can start including people from near by districts, keeping in mind their skill set, in any existing venture that we already supporting under SW. We would be constantly updating our database with new ventures as every district / state of India has their own unique flavor like North Eastern India is very strong in making bamboo artifacts or Tamilnadu has expertise in making sculptures from stones and metals. A great example of scalability for cooperative approach is success of so many milk cooperatives based on Amul model. I know the product of milk producing cooperatives is daily consuming item so we can also plan to diversify current product profile of ventures to include these types of items.

In the nut shell through this model we have a wonderful opportunity through which we can change millions of lives in coming years. I believe that your past experience will come handy in this regard. We all individually can’t be like sun which removes all darkness but we all can become small lamps which can remove darkness from a specified area and you know what Mr. Apte, if we can make all lamps work together then we might have our best chance to outshine the sun too. I once again thank you for this wonderful opportunity and looking forward to hear from you.

Thanks

मेरा कहा अगर जो मान वो लेता ,

रुख हमारी जिंदगी का और ही होता !

मेरा हाथ अगर जो थाम वो लेता

इस तूफान को हमने सहन कर लिया होता !

दिए दर्द का अगर जो दाम वो लेता

दौलत का उसकी शायद हिसाब नही होता !

शिद्दत से अगर जो नाम वो लेता

कब्र में भी दिल शायद धड़क गया होता !!

मेरी कवितायें : बड़ी मुश्किल में हूँ

2009-09-29T12:36:00.003-05:00

साँस अगर लेता हूँ तो महक उसकी ही आती है
साँस अगर न लूँ तो बस जान निकल जाती है !
बड़ी मुश्किल में हूँ क्या करूँ समझ नही आता
वो बहुत दूर है मुझसे मगर याद बहुत आती है !!

आँखें अगर खोलूं तो नज़र बस वही आती है
आँखें जो बंद रखूं तो कसक और बढ़ जाती है !
बड़ी मुश्किल में हूँ क्या करूँ समझ नही आता
वो सामने नही है मगर हर जगह दिख जाती है !!

बात अगर करता हूँ तो आवाज़ उसकी ही आती है
में सुनु या ना सुनु बहुत उलझन सी हो जाती है !
बड़ी मुश्किल में हूँ क्या करूँ समझ नही आता
वो तनहाइयों में मुझको हर लम्हा सताती है !!

अशक़ अगर गिरते हैं तो बस बाढ़ सी आती है
अशक़ अगर ना गिरें तो पलकें ही फट जाती है !
बड़ी मुश्किल में हूँ क्या करूँ समझ नही आता
वो दील तो कबका ले चुकी अब बस रूह ही बाकी है !!

Is Pure Love an Oudated Concept & Practical Convenience is More Important?

2009-09-28T02:16:00.011-05:00

वियोगी होगा पहला कवि , आह से उपजा होगा गान ,
निकलकर नयनों से चुपचाप , बही होगी कविता अनजान !!
"सुमित्रानंदन पन्त"

Closest English translation that I could come up with is " The first poet must have been in sad mood, the song would have been originated from his deep pain. The unknown poem must have been flown down quietly from his eyes."

I have always felt that when you want to write a poem you should have some mood first. This mood can be about anything, but it should be strong enough to arose your passion. Some subjects which are capable of doing that to me are patriotism, sadness out of love, philosophy, motivational feelings and love itself. What Sumitranandan ji is saying I believe in that. He was one of the greatest Hindi poet of modern times.

What I am trying to say is Love or deep feelings for certain things can change your life in a way that you can ever imagine. The same love used to be my source of strength and the same love has become cause of great sadness and pain. But what should be anyone's approach while dealing with such matters. Is love really an outdated concept now, which everyone uses for just having some quick gratification? or its much more than the practical convenience. This question bothers me as my life is currently experiencing this dilemma. A dilemma is always better when question of whole life is involved as your present actions decides your life's future.

We loved each other madly and deep down inside its still there. I hope it stays like that because in her I have known a good human being too. She is very good friend, a rare breed of girl who defies traditional norms and makes her own path. She is an amazing painter and wonderful guitar player. She is great with making handicrafts. He concentration is so great that when she gets involved in making something or creating something, she forgets even having food. She is a great conversation maker and she knows your trigger points. She knows how to make me happy or angry. She plays with my ego very skillfully. If you talk to her its rather impossible to not to fall for her. With in our first few talks, she got me and ever since I got hooked to her. Only problem with her is she is very moody and has very very angry temperament. When she has grudge on something than only God can save you. Her ego is something which destroyed lots of good things between us. I have never experienced such things in my life when I heard that before her ego even she cant stand. I always thought that since its our ego we can always control it but like many other beliefs that I was holding on, this too proved wrong.

She is very rigid and non adaptive. She doesnt care about other people's feelings and that makes her little selfish in nature. She says its her life and she wants to live it the way she wants. She is not realizing now that lots of things in life are connected and inter dependent. I hope she realizes it soon otherwise it would again be a problem for her. Everyone has the right to live their life as they want but I know that its always not going to happen. Many times you have make amends as per situation. She was ready to change her some negative attributes for me but not for other people. Some of these attributes she is changing now and I wish her good luck.

She toned down her anger to some extent and similar ways I changed too. From my side it was a natural change and being adaptive in nature I adjusted rather quickly. I wanted to keep her happy. I wanted to keep my family happy too. As I said in my previous blogs there are really few people who truly care for you and I tried to make those all happy. To my surprise it became an herculean task. Now I know you cant make everyone happy. For some close people's happiness you have to sacrifice some other people's happiness or you have to sacrifice your own happiness. She rightly said one thing that family members should be like they be happy in what you do rightly. She just wanted to keep me happy but still on her terms. She has given priority to her life above all. She took it as some challange which I couldnt understand. I still couldnt understand why our life is only our life? There are so many people associated with it and they have their share of it. Well this was something that neither she nor me were able to make each other understand.

Anyone's life is made up of their own unique experiences. How you grew up, plays very important part in your future life. This decides your likings and dislikings for certain issues and its really difficult to let go of it. This becomes part of individuality and if you are really a big egoist you wont compromise on any of theose things. Of their past experiences, some people change bad things and keep things, which they think good, throughout their life. I now know that because of this only elders say that they will decide our life partners. As they generally see it all while deciding on your marriage. I never knew it but now learned it in hard ways.

Earlier I was of thinking that its love alone which is sufficient to get you through life and its the only important thing. But now I learned that love will only work when both people are ready to make little adjustments for each other. Love is an important part but other things are also equally important. How much adjustments two people along with love can do for each other, is going to define, how successful your relationship is going to be. This thing will again work if one of the partner is ready to sacrifice it all for other. But this situation is not right and situation will become worse after sometime. Incidentlly she and me had disagreement on those few terms , on which we found each other on opposite ends. If either of us had blinked, we would have been enjoying life together. But we are two too much intelligent people and as the saying goes too much intelligent people cant get along after certain distance. I wanted sometimes to give it all up for her but later felt that it would again feed her ego, which would be bad for her in longer run. She was good in her own ways but I wanted to tone down certain things from her which would make her even better person. She believed in a very interesting saying which again I never heard before " you shouldnt try to become good for anyone, if you are bad than expectations from you are less and you can live a life which doesnt involve anyone's interference, as people will generally stay away from you."

It seemed a very interesting thought to me but I couldnt digest it. It seemed like more of a negative protentionist measure which you are building for keeping a status quo. I believe that status quo is not good if it was build upon negative thoughts. So I am in some way opposite to that thought. I think that there is no good in being bad, it hurts you in similar ways as it does to others and mostly it hurts those who are very close to you. These are the people whom you always wanted to keep happy so why to make them sad because of your bad behaviour.

So you can see that it was clash of wits and wisdom. I enjoyed intelligent discussions with her. Earlier when she saw that my arguments were strong she laughed it off but later she got angry with it and accuse me of being argumentative and bugging:). I liked her intelligence. They way she carried herself was amazing. Our Zodiac presiding planets were of clashing nature and it was written in our horoscope matching that we have to sacrifice our egos for each other and I think it was the thing which neighter of us was willing to do. I too became a little rigid my approach and that ended the only hope of us being together.

In overall accessment of the situation I am the biggest loser of all. She got whatever she wanted besides me, my family got what they wanted as they were hesitant of my getting married to her. She and me both chose their convinience above love. I know that we both cant forget each other. She said that deep down inside, her heart will always beat for me and thats sufficient enough for me to live my life. There is no feeling of any grudge now. I couldnt give her what she wanted besides love. Its fair that she weant ahead and took it from somewhere else. She was practical enough to realise that time is not on her side. Being a girl there are certain things that you cant do in Indian society and I always believed that everyone deserves the right to be a little bit selfish and think of their own good. My all theories and advices to others till now are getting validated on me. I just wished that subject of this test would have been someone else, but well this is what life is all about. You have to walk your talk. Overall I think that its me and only me who lost it all. I cant think of anyone besides her. How long this situation will remain like this only God knows. In these situations time is the only healer. My wounds will be healed with time but the time till they heal is the one, where I want God to provide me enough strength.

ख्वाबों के महल गिरकर टूटे , तिनके तक उडा ले गई हवा !
साया भी नही है साथ मेरे , बहुत अकेला में हो गया हूँ !!

आंसू मेरे दिख न जाए , बारिशों में ही निकलता हूँ
साँसे भी साथ छोड़ रही है , बहुत अकेला में हो गया हूँ !!

वो ही एक ठहराव था , जो मेरी रूह को सुकून दे गया
ख़ुद से बातें करता हूँ , बहुत अकेला में हो गया हूँ !!

किसी और से मिले लगता है , बहुत वक्त निकल गया
आइना नही पहचानता मुझे , बहुत अकेला में हो गया हूँ !!

दुश्मन होता अगर कहीं वो , तो शायद समझ भी जाता ,
हमसफ़र जिसे माना मैंने , कत्ल करके निकल गया !!

इंतज़ार किसिका करने की, हद भी कोई होती है ,
वो तो आया नही और, में बुत बनकर रह गया !!

मुट्ठी में भरी रेत जैसे ,उसे अपना मान लिया था मैंने ,
ख्वाब सारे टूट गए हैं, वो हाथ झटककर चल गया !!

This Too Shall Pass

2009-09-17T15:17:00.001-05:00

Very Inspiring Forward Mail I got from one of my friends.. Please read on

Once a king called upon all of his wise men and asked them, ” Is there a mantra or suggestion which works in every situation, in every circumstances, in every place and in every time. In every joy, every sorrow, every defeat and every victory? One answer for all questions? Something which can help me when none of you is available to advise me? Tell me is there any mantra?”

All the wise men were puzzled by the King’s question. They thought and thought. After a lengthy discussion, an old man suggested something which appealed to all of them. They went to the king and gave him something written on paper, with a condition that the king was not to see it out of curiosity. Only in extreme danger, when the King finds himself alone and there seems to be no way, only then he can see it. The King put the papers under his Diamond ring.

Some time later, the neighbors attacked the Kingdom. King and his army fought bravely but lost the battle. The King had to flee on his horse. The enemies were following him. getting closer and closer. Suddenly the King found himself standing at the end of the road - that road was not going anywhere. Underneath there was a rocky valley thousand feet deep. If he jumped into it, he would be finished…and he could not return because it was a small road…the sound of enemy’s horses was approaching fast. The King became restless. There seemed to be no way.

Then suddenly he saw the Diamond in his ring shining in the sun, and he remembered the message hidden in the ring. He opened the diamond and read the message. The message was - ” THIS TOO SHALL PASS”

The King read it . Again read it. Suddenly something struck him- Yes ! This too will pass. Only a few days ago, I was enjoying my kingdom. I was the mightiest of all the Kings. Yet today, the Kingdom and all his pleasure have gone. I am here trying to escape from enemies. Like those days of luxuries have gone, this day of danger too will pass. A calm came on his face. He kept standing there. The place where he was standing was full of natural beauty. He had never known that such a beautiful place was also a part of his Kingdom.

The revelation of the message had a great effect on him. He relaxed and forgot about those following him. After a few minutes he realized that the noise of the horses and the enemy coming was receding. They moved into some other part of the mountains and were near him.

The King was very brave. He reorganized his army and fought again. He defeated the enemy and regained empire. When he returned to his empire after victory, he was received with much fanfare. The whole capital was rejoicing in the victory. Everyone was in अ festive mood. Flowers were being showered on King from every house, from every corner. People were dancing and singing. For a moment King said to himself,” I am one of the bravest and greatest King. It is not easy to defeat me. With all the reception and celebration he saw an ego emerging in him.

Suddenly the Diamond of his ring flashed in the sunlight and reminded him of the message. He open it and read it again: “THIS TOO SHALL PASS”.

He became silent. His face went through a total change -from the egoist he moved to a state of utter humbleness. If this too is going to pass, it is not yours. The defeat was not yours, the victory is not yours. You are just a watcher. Everything passes by. We are witnesses of all this. We are the perceivers. Life comes and goes. Happiness comes and goes. Sorrow comes and goes.

Now as you have read this story, just sit silently and evaluate your own life. This too will pass. Think of the moments of joy and victory in your life. Think of the moment of Sorrow and defeat. Are they permanent ? They all come and pass away.

Life just passes away. There is nothing permanent in this world. Every thing changes except the law of change. Think over it from your own perspective. You have seen all the changes. You have survived all setbacks, all defeats and all sorrows. All have passed away. The problems in the present, they too will pass away. Because nothing remains forever. Joy and sorrow are the two faces of the same coin. They both will pass away.

You are just a witness of change. Experience it, understand it, and enjoy the present moment - this too shall pass!

एक अधूरे ख्वाब जैसी लगने लगी है ज़िन्दगी ,
दिल धड़क तो रहा है पर साँसे उसके पास है !

उसका ख्याल आते ही चहरे पे चमक आती है ,

My 12 Questions for Irrational and Fanatic Muslims

2008-10-05T21:19:00.006-05:00

I respect beliefs of people and believe every religion has some fairy tales which becomes part of it in due course of time. There is no harm in believing in fairytale unless its start harming others physically and try to destroy them. I have belief in God and I believe that God is same for all of us. I dont have problem in anyone's belief as its upto an individual how he sees his own way, but when stupidity and brainwashed illogical brains commit crime in name of God than it hurts everyone to see how someone can be killed in name of God. Brainwashed people generally follow a cult where they are not allowed to think beyond what is written in some manual and they commit heinous crimes because of their illogical belief in certain things which takes away their right to think. In this light I tried to understand Quran and came up with few questions.. I hope if common Muslims read them than they will also know that its time for reason to prevail over bigotry...

1)What is the reference in Quran regarding throwing stones at Shaitan while performing Hajj? If there is none than and why people still do it?? Isnt it would be better not to do something which is not there in Quran??

2)How come that Stone is Symbol for Shaitan? You are not supposed to use any symbol for religious things if you are a Muslim. Why then people think that stone is Shaitan? If there can be a stone symbol for Shaitan than why not for Allaha? Isnt that stone is also creation if Allaha? So how come Muslims are thinking a creation of Allaha as symbol of Shaitan? Are Muslims not committing greatest sin here?

3) When Quran say that no one can be seen as partner to Allaha than why Muhammad will sit with Allaha for interceding on day of Qayamat and Allaha will listen to his pleading and act while Allaha being omnipotent should know everything and shouldnt require anyone's help in judgment?

4) Can God be different for Different people on earth? Or can God reward some killer just because he happens to have a name belonging to particular geography on earth and punish the good person who doesnt worship God or worship him in different ways than prescribe in a particular book??

5)Tell me how come Shaitan can become so powerful that he can even inspire the Satanic Verses? Does Allaha not know what Shaitan is going to do ?? Why Allaha even allows Eve to to eat the apple in Eden? If he was so concerned he should have prevented that Satan from instigating Eve from eating apple.. right?? How come Shaitan is acting on his free will and challanging almighty Allaha and even winning at times from him? If allaha isnt that powerful that Shaitan isnt in his control than how come he is going to control the world and universe?

6)Why non muslims have to pay Jajiya and feel subdued in a Dar Ul Islam? Why they cant live with their self respect? Why they have to pay special tax? Isnt it a form of torture? Paying tax for just worshipping in some other ways.. isnt that wrong on part of any so called God?

7) When people like Zakir Naik quote Hindu Shastra than Its nice to see Muslims are reading Hindu religious scriptures. But I just cant stop smiling on the fact that all these Sanatan Dharma religious scriptures which are being quoted are much much much older than time of Quran. So if truth as I already have mentioned was already known from Hindu Shastra than what was the need of Quran in first place?? Now dont say that all old was corrupted otherwise you wouldnt have been quoting Hindu Shastra here..so truth was/is already present..

At the best what I can understand is, it was external ways of worshiping which got changed. So if it was only external things than why would someone like GOD would be worrying the way people worshiping him? In the end they are worshiping him..right?? So much bloodshed just for all this external way of worshiping and not seeing the truth in heart.. which GOD can approve that??

8)And when the word is fulfilled concerning them, We shall bring forth a BEAST of the earth to speak unto them because mankind had not faith in Our revelations. (Quran 27:82)

Here Allah is promising that he will send a beast to bring his message to mankind in future.. Now Muhammad claimed that he is seal of prophecy..but here Allaha promising a BEAST :) as future messenger to mankind.. Now Either Allaha is right in saying this or Muhammad lied through Quran about his being seal of prophecy.. And why some beast as messenger? cant we have some direct Angel whom we can understand more properly??

9) Why Allaha has sealed the heart of Non believer? Now if I think about it than it seems to me that it Almighty Allaha's fault and not any non believer's.. isnt it?? If He wanted to reveal himself to all than what was the need to seal hearts and than saying get Jajiya tax from non believers or treat them differently. Is in not wrong on Allaha's part?

10) If Quran claims to be a clear message for believers than how come so many sects of Muslims are there? If believers have so much trouble in understanding teaching of Quran than what fanatic Muslims expect from non believers?? If Quran is clear in message than what is the meaning of "Alif Lam Mim" which appears in several verses.

11)YUSUFALI: None of Our revelations do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, but We substitute something better or similar: Knowest thou not that Allah Hath power over all things? (Noble Quran 002:106)

"We substitute something better or similar" Allaha thinks that his earlier version of truth in Torah and Bible were not good and since Hinduism is no truth for fanatic Muslims so I havent written it here with Bible and Torah. So Allaha is correcting his past mistakes in Quran.. The conclusion is Quran says God is doing mistakes.

12) Since Muslims have to wait till day of judgment after they die to go to heaven so isnt it a injustice for those Muslims who died 1400 years ago from now? Since they have to wait these many years than those who die now or will die in future. Isnt this scheme of justice already doing injustice to those who already died?

As I said earlier I dont have objection when people believe in fairy tales but these tales should limit to their own mind and shouldnt become a tool to harm others. I invite all Muslim scholars to give me explanation of these 12 points. If They cant then they must accept that there are several ways to reach one common destination as described in Veda's as "Ekam Sat Vipra Bahudah Vadanti" means the truth is only one and wise people know it by different names.

Unity In Diversity: Is it Impossible To Achieve OR So Easy That We Just Ignore It?

2008-10-03T16:29:00.003-05:00

Watching TV news or reading new papers of any country in this world is not comforting these days. I do it just out of curiosity. I like to know what is going on in the whole world. Google’s news application is pretty handy in this regard. Through it you will be able to know about opinions of different news papers on the same issue. If you really have an open mind you can see pros and cons of that issue or news and make up your mind to oppose, support or be neutral about it. If you already belong to certain ideology then you will pick the points which suits your way of thinking. There is plenty of material available on internet to strengthen your way of thinking either way for any issue. Then there are Community Forums of social networking sites like Orkut or internet chat rooms of Yahoo and other sites where you will be amazed to meet people with great knowledge. World population is coming closer to each other and I think after 50 to 100 years there will be very less conflicts in the world. Why I think like that?

I think like that because majority of the times its communication gap and no detailed knowledge which makes people suspicious of each other. This less or no knowledge about particular place, personality or religion is what creates a mentality of us versus them. When we have made up our mind that other person is our enemy then we majority of the times just try to find faults in them. That’s why ignorant Christians find so many faults with Hinduism and thinks Islam as their second rate version, ignorant Muslims find Christianity as second rate version of itself and doesn’t find Hinduism as a way to worship almighty. Ignorant Hindus find Islam barbaric and Christianity full of deceit that is just hell bent on destroying them by any mean possible. Now I am going to let my mind dwell deeper and write what I think is correct. There is one basic concept in which I believe in. I believe that there is Ishwar/God/Allaha or any superior force which makes functioning of this world and beyond possible. That God is one and same for all and people just have different ways to worship the same reality. You are free to agree or disagree with me as always.

There is good in every religion. There has to be good in the thing which calls itself a way to reach God or Allah or Ishwar. Otherwise this thing is of no use. Religion offers humans an explanation of the unexplained. It tells you about the things which are beyond control of science. This topic is of great interest to me. My search for knowing truth began when I first read commentary on Bhagwat Geeta’s chapter 2 and 3 given to me by my friend. This book was written by Acharya Rajneesh. Those who have studied Osho’s books know that that it leaves a profound impact on your mind and you yearn to learn more. I was hooked. I read him days and nights by borrowing and purchasing his books on all topics. Although I don’t agree with him on all things but still those books gave me many answers I was looking for. After that I read Bible, Quran and other Hindu religious books like Upanishads, some part of Vedas and writings of Vivekananda.

I wanted to go to the root of conflicts and see why they are there. Why people are fighting in the name of God which was meant for giving peace to all of us. Human stupidity has reached its height when anyone murders in name of God. How any God is going to be pleased by seeing murders of his creation in his name? Why anyone like God would have problem in way people worship him? All religion say God is almighty, omnipresent, who knows each and every thing in people's heart and beyond then why religious fanatics believe that its only their version of God which is true and all others are false? Why some fanatics believe that its particular name of almighty which is important? How any God like thing can say that he will protect a particular community or person who belongs to certain geography of the world even though they can be bad and criminal but will not hesitate in punishing good people who are worshipping him in some different way? Those who have problem with the way God is worshipped by people either that section of people in world hasn’t understood what God is all about or they are misusing Gods name by dragging him in their own fight for obvious benefits. Why?? Because its such a basic thing in which people don’t even think that there cant be different supreme reality to different people. Any God who claims that he is the only true God and all others are false can not be a God. God is God because he doesn’t involve in human like competitions of being number one or two. He is God because he is beyond all. God reveals himself in each of his creation. Its all him everywhere you see and whatever you see or don’t see or experiences through your senses. Each of us shares a special bonding with him because we are from him. He cant differentiate between Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Jains, Buddhists, Jews, Atheists, low or high caste, black or white race. He cant , he simply cant do anything like favoritism. If anyone is trying to impose this differentiation human feeling on God then he is actually doing a great disservice and greatest sin towards God.

Yes God does justice like an honest judge and no one can hide his or hers rights and wrong from him. The God will punish the wicked and reward the righteous and caste, creed, community or a particular way of worship shouldnt matter for him. If these things matters for any one like God than he is not a God. He doesnt deserve to be known as God. The simple fact is its us humans who have degradded his name for our own selfish narrow interest. He has given humans lot of freedom by giving them power of thinking. He hasn’t done that with any other creation. A simple example is animal baby is born without any protection and assistance from anyone. A particular geography and climatic condition has that type of animals. When its cold God has given them lots of fur. When its hot God has given them smooth skin and capability gather food in their own ways. On the other hand humans don’t have that natural protection but God has given us brains to use. With this brain we have changed climatic conditions, used animal skin to protect us. It means we are God’s freest creation and he has put a lot in our hand and brain. Its up to us how we use that intelligence. But seeing all this fighting in name of God makes me wonder has he done a right thing? Wouldn’t the world have been a better place when we would have been living like animals do? With no bomb blasts to worry about, no ideological battle to fight, no money to run after, no concern for Ozone layer hole, global warming and terrorism, just two needs of gathering food and reproducing babies when time comes.

Don’t you all think that we have made this world a disaster? Is this God would have wanted when he has created us? May be he might not be having fun with all goodliness of animals and their regular things. Well if there would have been no human on earth than we all wouldn’t have been discussing God at all. It means he wanted us on earth and wanted us to know the best by use of our brain. But I guess majority of us is not using this wonderful gift of God in proper way.

Well while going through all these different religious and philosophical books I came to know a lot about different amazing things. It’s a personal liberating journey of truth which makes your mind open with wonder. You feel like you know so little in vast ocean of knowledge. I wanted to become a monk but I guess that desire wasn’t strong enough. I just want everyone to take that journey. It makes you think about lot many things and perhaps this is the reason India has produced so many towering personalities. When mind is free from a sense of victimhood it lets you do wonderful things. Otherwise you will forever going to remain in miserable condition.

The common problem with some Muslims in India is they think that its state and police which is acting against their interest and justify bomb blasts as a way to avenge that sense of victimhood. I have seen many educated Muslims using the same argument. But I would like to tell them that this sense of victimhood belongs to every poor and less privileged in India. In India people with money and political power many times abuse their fortune by indulging in extortion of masses. It happens. It happens with every common Indian when they come in contact with any government office for doing their work and police and administration is part of that. So this sense of victimhood belongs to everyone who is less privileged in India and its not a Muslim specific problem. Majority of common Indians tried avoiding this sense of victimhood by sending their children to private schools and many times at cost of their good life style. They made every resource available with them in good education of their children. Even though they were poor they borrowed money or took up any other job but made their children study. On the other hand lots of Muslims send their children to Madarasa. I am not against any Madarsa education but education in Madarsa is of no practical worldly use. How can you expect someone having a Hafiz or Pandit course to be employed in an engineering firm? Its easy to have a sense of victimhood and blame all your troubles on someone else. But wouldn’t it be nicer that people just stop complaining and become partner in growth of India like all others?

I am not turning my blind eye towards stupidity and generalization that has crept in common population in India. I wouldn’t have believed that discrimination but it happened with one of my dear friend. He was denied a house on rent since he belonged to a particular religion. It made me sad as I know my friend is very good person and I complained and written to new paper editors about it. I went with him to argue with land lord but to no avail. I went again to land lord alone and asked why he is doing that after talks with him I realized that there is a general impression that many people although eat non vegetarian food but don’t like cutting of any goat in front of them. I couldn’t do anything and felt so helpless. It was a good thing that my friend got house just near by. I thanked God for this. People are generalizing a lot and situation like involvement of educated and well to do young boys in bomb blasts is not helping situation in any case. I am for co mingled community housing societies. Ghettos filled with one particular religious community or people from one region are bad for country as diverse as India. Housing ghettos like those just reinforce sense of victimhood and create misunderstanding towards other view points. It generates feeling of us verses them and not good for a country like India. The solution of this type of problem can be open declaration of any housing society rules and clear definition that there would be no discrimination on basis of caste, community or religion. Yes, a housing society can declare that there would be no cutting of animals in their society complex and other external things like that and I hope no one would have problem with this kind of rule and many people including me don’t like seeing animals being cut either in any temple or other religious activities. As I think there are enough butcher shops available if you want to cook non vegetarian food.

Christian missionaries have done great serice for poors in India and I admire that. But will anyone like Jesus be happy when he sees the methods adopted by some missionaries in coverting innocent tribal people? I dont need to elaborate on this as its well in public domain. They take name of constitution and say its freedom of religious propagation in India. But why they are confusing freedom to propagate for freedom to conversion? What anyone can get by converting someone to some other religion? Its madness to convert people by using means of money and fraud. No one would object to teachings of Jesus but when NSCN IM in Nagaland declares that they want Greater Nagaland in name of Christ than all partiots would get a feeling that either these guys havent understood what Jesus taught or they are just becoming some Christian Taliban. Those who seek converts in their religion think that theirs is the only true way while others are false. But cant they understand the simple logic that if God would have wanted it to be like this than He wouldnt have made so many different ways in first place? Serive for poors and unpriviledged is the greatest way you can worship God. But when this service comes with a motive of converting than it becomes a give and take business of soul. When missionaries get target of converting some number of people every year than it just denotes that how much business is involved in business of God. I am not against conversions. If anyone feels like worshiping the almighty in some other ways than I am least worried about that. But when there is business of faith for political power and breaking national ethoes than I just cant remain silent. I am sure that true followers of Christ would understand this.

Those Hindus who are killing innocents of other faith are doing the same heinous crime. A Hindu cant have problem with anyone worshiping anything because all ways leads to almighty only. I wonder which Rama or Krishna will be happy by seeing rape of a woman. They dont go and eradicate evil like misunderstood casteism which has taken away self respect of so many people. They are not going and eradicting social evils like dowry and female foeticide from their own house and than blame others for exploiting the same. If you keep your house clean than who will dare to point fingers?

Why it becomes so hard for people to understand that every religion has its share of fairytales. And these scriptures may have been manipulated by humans for solving their own purposes. If anyone believes in any fairytales than it doesnt harm anyone untill some people start claiming that their's fairytale is only true and others have to follow it or die. The best approach for solving this problem is to live and let live according to some common laws based on todays time. This approach is the only guarantee for a peaceful coexistance of different communities. Faith in God is really a personal matter and religions are meant for transforming you from with in.

India is very diverse and diversity should be its strength. There is one beautiful story about first ship of Zoroastrians or Parsis arrival on Gujarat coast to save themselves from persecution in their home land in 8th Century. King Jadi Rana sent a pot filled with milk to Parsi elders on ship denoting that he doesn’t have any space left in his kingdom. The Parsis returned that filled pot after adding sweetener to milk denoting that they would live in his kingdom like this and add value. To this day these Paris even after 1300 years stick to their commitment that their forefathers gave to King Jadi Rana and you can see that commitment in likes of Tatas, Maneckshaws, Godrejs even today.

This is an ideal example of unity in diversity. That concept remains valid today too where everyone has to play his or her part to make India a greater place to live. God wanted us to live and co exists with differences. If God would have wanted just one type of things than he wouldn’t have created so many different races and religions, he wouldn’t have created so many colors in nature, he wouldn’t have created so many different animals, and he wouldn’t have created so much of bio diversity. I don’t understand why it becomes too hard for all people to understand this. Cant they just see it around them? They are working against will of God if they are destroying others in his name. Unity in diversity is what God want us to see and believe. He wants us to understand it all. We all educated people should make it our duty to make this known to everyone in our beloved motherland. Since we all have to emphasize more on commonalities than on differences if we want peace and prosperity for all Indian citizen. May God direct our intellect in right direction.

ओ भारत के वीर जवानों , माँ का क़र्ज़ चुका देना ,
कटे फटे इस मानचित्र को अबकी ठीक बना देना !!
पटना साहीब से मीलने को ननकाना बैचेन खड़ा ,
अबकी तीरंगा रावलपिंडी में घुस कर फहरा देना !!
अटक कटक से सिन्धु नदी तक सब कुछ हमको प्यारा है ,
कश्मीर मत मांगो कह दो पाकिस्तान हमारा है !!

जो उपवन से घात करे वो शाख तोड़ दी जायेगी ,
जो पीछे से वार करे वो बांह मोड़ दी जायेगी ,
जो कुटुंब का नाश करे वो गर्दन तोड़ दी जायेगी,
मेरे देश पे उठती हर एक आँख फोड़ दी जायेगी ,
जो देश द्रोह की बात करे वो मनुष्य हत्यारा है ,
कश्मीर मत मांगों कह दो पाकिस्तान हमारा है !!

अपनी झीले, नदीयाँ, पर्वतमाला कैसे दे देंगे ?
भारत भर की रूप सुधा का प्याला कैसे दे देंगे ?
वैष्णो देवी , बाला अमर उजाला कैसे दे देंगे ?
अमरनाथ का बोलो पुण्य शीवाला कैसे दे देंगे ?
गंगा से मीलने को झेलम का बैचेन कीनारा है ,
कश्मीर मत मांगों कह दो पाकिस्तान हमारा है !!

I first heard this poem while attending annual Hindi poem recital competition in my school approximately 17 years ago. At that time I wasn't that aware about world and Indian politics but somehow this poem agitated me from inside. I still remember that day coming back home with a heavy heart. The feeling that someone wants to take away my mother India's belongings created a deep sense of rage. Probably I count that day as the day of my political awakening. As a child I forgot the rage and anger after 2 or 3 days but that poem always echoed in my mind. When I started writing my diary of poems and sher-shayaris, I wrote this poem there too. Although it wasn't originally written by me but the emotions that I felt after hearing its recital, was a special memory I wanted to keep alive. That day I felt so Indian that I wanted to go out on border and declare war on Pakistan.

These were the magic words and today inside my mind I am again hearing its recital. I dont remember my schoolmate, who was reciting it but since than I recited it so many times that each and every word of this has become written on my heart. Some one is again trying to snatch my mother's belongings and again emotions are taking control of my mind.

I wanted to write about whole Baba Amarnath – Kashmir fundamentalist -terrorist issue before but decided against it to see reaction of the all sections of media intellectuals and general population. I did that because I wanted to be sure that what I write should include every aspect of the problem. Again I admit that I am nobody but still democracy gives each and every small or big citizen right to express their thoughts freely and that's what I have done till now.

But some people doesn’t know what is freedom with responsibility. Likes of Shabana Azmi, Arundhati Roy and many so called pseudo secularists, human right activists come in this category. Even though they have their best time in India but they never miss a chance to destroy India’s pride and take advantage of largely tolerant, liberal and truly secular Indians. Yesterday in paper it was Shabana Azmi who was complaining that minorities are being denied opportunities in India. Well ShabanaJi, tell me, who made your father such a great poet in India? Who accepted you as an actress who won several awards and become a MP? Does Indian not buy Cds of the songs written by Mr Javed Akhtar? Or does Indians haven’t gone and seen “Dil Chahta hai” or “Lakshya” directed by Farhan Akhtar? Or does Indians have stopped watching cricket when Azharuddin or Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi were captains of Indian cricket team? Or does Indians stopped watching movies in which Shahrukh, Salman, Amir, Saif, Fardeen, Imran or many other minority community actors performed? Or any Indian has given any less respect to Dr Abdul Kalam Azad? Or Indians dont want to listen songs from Adnan Sami or Mehadi Hasan? FYI Shabana Ji, its Pakistan which is not allowing their citizens to hear songs from Lata Mangeshkar and Jagjeet Singh. I don’t deny that people don’t have problem when Dilip Kumar goes to Pakistan and donate for Cancer Hospital while doing nothing for any Indian one. People will have problem when they see any Indian who is enjoying fruits of liberty and money earned here and simultaneously abusing the Indians and favoring other hostile nations.

Now Arundhati Roy, today I read that she is saying Kashmir needs azadi from India. She has gone to attend Hurriyat’s rally in Srinagar yesterday and after coming back from there she made this comment in TOI. These five star celebrity stupid people who doesn’t know reality on the ground just get overwhelmed by any anti national activities in name of human rights. I would like to ask her why she doesn’t go to Pakistan and suggest people over there that Balochistan and NWFP needs azadi from Pakistan. Why don’t she goes to Afganistan and suggest to Hamid Karzai that Taliban wants to rule Kabul so please leave Afganistan for Taliban. Why don’t she goes to Saudi Arabia and tell the kings there to leave Saudi Arabia for Osama since he wants to rule Saudi Arabia or why she haven’t still commented on what Chinese has done to Tibbetians or Uighur Muslims in Xinxiang? I guess China would be more interested in hearing her since she is one of the pro communists. But we all know she wont do that because all the above mentioned people will kill her for these stupid advices. Just writing some fictional books and winning only one award for that doesnt make any one so special that they can play with integrity of the nation. As per her logic there should be atleast 3 billion countries since I guess half of the world population wants some or other kind of freedom from their present governments. I think people of India need some kind of freedom from people like Arundhati Roy and I wont mind if people teach her a lesson so that her mind get a proper mental balance, which I guess she has lost after writing God of small things.

Let me be clear on certain things. I am not against any caste, community, region or religion. I am against corrupts and anti nationals whosoever they are. There are certain things I would never compromise while dealing with any separatists or terrorist. First there is not going to be any negotiation on territorial integrity of present Indian border, second there is not going to be any special provision in governance, foreign policy, law and order and defense for any state as all people enjoy the same freedom and all are equal. After agreeing on these two principles there can be negotiation on special economic packages for development of that state. I am not denying the fact that successive Indian central governments are responsible for the mess in J&K and north eastern states. North eastern states militancy except Nagaland has aroused mainly on the account of non development. Nagaland and Kashmir (Jammu and Lddakh are with rest of India) have peculiar problem and it can be solved with national resolve and will to take on the anti nationals. I will discuss Nagaland in some other blog. In this blog I would like to go in depth about Kashmir problem.

Brief History of Kashmir from 1850 Onwards:-

Jammu and Kashmir that you see in Indian maps is total undivided J&K with area 2,22,236 sq Kms. Out of this area PoK is having 78,114 Sq Kms and China too is enjoying the party by having 42,685 sq Kms. The word Kashmir is contraction of the word “Kashyapmeru means mountain of Kashyap”. According to Nilmata Puran Kashmir valley was fully under water and it formed a big lake by name Satisar. Geologists have also proven this fact that whole Kashmir valley was once under water. Nilmata Puran says Sage Kashyap drained that primordial lake of Satisar and now because of that we have beautiful valley of Kashmir with us. Kashmir’s population before Islam was basically Shaivite Hindus. After a treaty between Maharaja Gulab Singh of Jammu and British in 1846 Kashmir became part of Dogra ruler’s empire. Before this treaty Kashmir was ruled by chieftains belonging to empire of Maharaja Ranjit Singh of Punjab. Mr Karan Singh who is a congress MP is direct descendant of Maharaja Gulab Singh. I guess this is sufficient for having a little background on history of J&K.

As you all know we had two golden chances of solving this problem in past. First in 1948 when India got independence, Pakistan attacked Kashmir. Indian military forces captured most of the Kashmir and were on their way to capture rest of it. But Mr Nehru under influence Lord Mountbatten took this matter to UN. UN called for the cease fire and the present LoC became line of cease fire. For this mistake of Nehru, we are still paying even after 60 years. Anyways we had another golden chance in 1971 when we defeated Pakistan and captured 91,000 soldiers. Indian Gandhi failed to capitalize on this opportunity and didn’t press for permanent solution of Kashmir. She and Julfikar Ali Bhutto signed Shimla Agreement which called for settlement of Kashmir dispute to some later date through dialogues and that date still hasn’t come. In these two golden opportunities we could have managed to get the PoK back under our control but anyways history of India is of lost chances where our rulers in modern times, except Chankya and ChandraGupta, failed to be farsighted.

Nehru did another major blunder when he agreed to give J&K special status in Indian territory through article 370 in Indian constitution. This at first gave J&K its own flag, its own prime minister, its own constitution and even you and me would have to show passport to travel J&K. we are not carrying our passports while going for pilgrimage in Vaishno Devi and Baba Amarnath because of Dr Shayama Prasad Mukharjee. Dr Mukharjee was cabinet minister in Congress govt after independence. But as he saw Mr Nehru doing great injustice to the nation by granting special favors to his home state (Mr Nehru was a Kashmiri Pandit), he resigned from Congress and formed Bhartiya Jan Sangh with help from RSS. He decided to travel J&K without any valid document as any ordinary Indian would go to any other state of India. Sheikh Abdullaha arrested him and put him in prison. Dr Mukharjee died in prison in June 1953. His death mystery is still unsolved. After seeing this supreme sacrifice of a respected leader, Nehru amended his mistake regarding travel documents to J&K but rest of the things remained unchanged.

J&K was in relative peace till 1988. After getting defeated in 3 direct wars against India, Pakistan changed its tactics. After seeing success Iranian revolution and Jihad against Russians in Afganistan, General Zia Ul Haq, the military ruler of Pakistan, changed his game plan for destroying India. Pakistan got initial success with Sikh militancy in Punjab so they decided to do the similar thing in Kashmir. On the top of it 1988 general elections in J&K were rigged in favor of Abdullahs by New Delhi. This created a greater resent in Kashmir Valley. By this time Afgans, with help from western countries and Pakistan, were successful in throwing Russians out from their territory. This gave great impetus to terrorist and jehadi elements in Kashmir, who thought that similar thing can be implemented in here. J&K which was known for its tolerance and real secularism was systematically converted to hardcore Jehadi Islam. Kashmiri Pandits who were some 3 lakh in number in valley itself were told to leave or get converted to Islam or be killed. It worked out very well for Jehadis as there are only 10,000 of the Pandits still left in the valley. Around 1000 got killed in terrorist acts after 1990 and rest migrated to other parts of the country and world.

So far none of the great secularists and human right luminaries of India has done any thing about these people who are living like refugees in their own land. And that’s why I believe that so called human right activists and seculars are nothing but anti nationals, who start crying when some one convicted terrorist like Afzal Guru get caught. Well they are on pay roll from foreigners and they are doing their job, atleast they are loyal to some one. But they have forgotten most important thing which is interest of their own country and rest of its population. Anyways I will deal with them in another blog.

After long spell of mayhem and killings J&K again started its walk towards peace after NDA govt under Mr Vajpayee gave them one of the fairest poll. After terrorist attacks in September 2001 in US, things changed for Pakistan. As US woke up after going through the pain which India is suffering from many years. The global war on terror is been beneficial for India and whole world pressurized Pakistan to stop supporting terrorism. People of Kashmir liked taste of peace after so many years. Economy started booming, Hurriyat broke up between so called hardliners or anti national terrorists like Geelani and so called moderates like Mirwaiz Omar Farooq. Well for India none of these Hurriyat people are of any use unless they have some divine revelation of stop spreading hate or getting killed one by one.

Now after successful elections in 2003, J&K was again going for election in this year. And here comes politics of self interest which brought situation to this level. Let me give you some background of political parties in Kashmir Valley who are supposed to have belief in Indian democracy. The main culprit for this current fiasco is PDP of Mufti Muhammad Saeed. Mr Mufti was home minister in VP Singh’s govt. He is the same union home minister, who some says staged kidnapping of his own daughter so that some dreaded terrorists in Kashmir can be freed. Well its just typical Indian politician behavior and I would have ignored that since lots of time has gone by. But my doubts against him and his daughter Mehbuba Mufti as anti nationals and terrorists sympathizers are getting stronger day by day. His party put forward many mind boggling demands which were not even made by dreaded terrorists. One of them is allowing Pakistani currency in Indian Kashmir. I mean what?? Who can say things like that unless they have very sinister, anti national design behind it?

Shri Amarnath Shrine Land Diversion Issue and Real Agenda of Anti Nationals:-

Yatra to Shri Amarnath dham is not started after Buta Malik discovered the route for some 150 years ago. There is a record of pilgrimage to Shri Amarnath Dham in various Hindu scriptures. The real story behind finding of the route involves story of a sage who gave a bag full of coal to Buta Malik so that he can cook food. But as Buta Malik arrives in his home and opens the coal bag he finds gold instead of coal. After seeing gold in bag he wanted to thank that sage and he went searching for him. He couldn't found the sage but he found alternate route to Shri Amarnath Dham. Hindu pilgrims involved family of Buta Malik into management of annual yatra and still give portion of offerings to his present family for doing this favor to them. Have you seen anything like this in world except India?? Shri Amarnath Shrine land diversion issue, which is the starting point of this time wasting anti national agitation, was just a routine land transfer for giving pilgrims more facilities in hostile environment. This land diversion was done to provide temporary pre fabricated shelter to pilgrims in hostile living conditions.

Mufti Sayeed's PDP which came to rule after elections transferred hundreds of acres of forest land to create Baba Gulam Shah Badshah university in Rajori, no one objected to it. Than he ordered cutting of thousands of trees for creation of Mughal Road, no one objected to it. Even though cutting of these trees have created question mark on existence of highly endangered “ Wild Markhor Goat” species. These goats are just 200-300 in numbers in whole world and have been declared highly endangered species. But why Mufti and his ilk will care about endangered species when his like minded anti nationals have driven out another endangered species by name Kashmiri Pandits from Kashmir valley? Than he transferred hundreds of acres for Islamic University in Awantipur, no one objected to it. Land to these two universities was given free of cost but when Jammu demanded similar concession for Sharda Peeth University, it was denied. Than he transferred lots of land for various other commercial use and no one objected to it. The land he transferred was also forest land but on one objected because it was right thing to do. But suddenly when some 100 acre of land was transferred for use of pilgrims than whole hell broke lose. His own ministers transferred the land but since he received orders from Islamabad so started playing part in conspiracy created by anti nationals. His daughter along with Omar Abdullah said its their land and they wont give it to any one even for creating temporary shelters.

I once regarded Omar Abdullah as a good leader and even included him in my would be prime minister's list. But after seeing his ugly face in this land transfer issue, he seems to me just like some petty corrupt politician, who can go to any length for getting some stupid votes. Anyways he decided to play regional politics knowing fully that he is just playing in the hands of separatists and anti nationals. When you already have bigger terrorists for the same cause why would someone listen to him? I guess for this decision he and India going to pay heavily. Well I am done with Abdullah.

All these anti nationals along with Hurriyat created fear in Kashmir's general population that permanent colonies are being created in Kashmir and this would change demography of Kashmir. The Hurriyat and all anti nationals failed to remember that its them who changed demography of Kashmir for real since 1989 after driving Pandits out of valley. At that time none of the local Kashmir population protested. Well leave local population, no one in India protested on plight of these Pandits who are living like refugees in their own land.

After our spineless central government bowed down to these separatists false propaganda and canceled the allotment of land people in Jammu instantly felt agitated. There have been no riots in Jammu or any other communal clashes although people were provoked so many times. But denying land for use of temporary use for pilgrimage touched raw nerve of the population and Jammuites belonging to all religions and political affiliations joined the protests against injustice meted out to them for past 60 years.

Even though the Kashmiri anti nationals got what they wanted through concealment of land order transfer they were just waiting for another false propaganda to stoke up hatred against Jammu and rest of India. Kashmir for the first time got the taste of another similar agitation where some people from Jammu attacked trucks from Kashmir. I don’t deny this fact and this happens in all agitations where vehicle on the road become target for mobs. Anti national PDP and Hurriyat lost no opportunity in creating another false propaganda of economic blockade of Kashmir. Even though Army cleaned up the National Highway pretty soon, the anti nationals started March to Muzaffarabad in PoK. One of their leaders Sheikh Abdul Aziz got his punishment of highest order when police got rid of him during those protests. This made whole Hurriyat realize that there number is not far from list of dead so they back tracked from that false march and start shouting in different tunes.

Now you can see the whole game plan from anti nationals. They started their whole activities on false issue and sustained it through false issue and now they don’t talk about it any more because they used those to their favors and now showing their true colors where we can see SA Geelani saying, he is Pakistani. They just wanted a chance to create trouble as its their nature not to remain peaceful. They have been successful in making relatively peaceful Kashmir to troubled region again. Even though Kashmir and its people sustain on us tax payers from India than also instead of being grateful they shout slogans against us. I have solution for their and ours troubles. Just read on..

Solution for Kashmir Problem:-

My solution to Kashmir Problem involves 5 points. I know it wont go down well with so called secularists but for any right minded Indian these points may prove to end what we have as every day problem in Kashmir. As per me the best solution to Kashmir problem includes in making Kashmir non exclusive state and treat it as per with other Indian states. My five point program includes

1) Making LoC as international border between India and Pakistan. It means that Kashmir’s part which is already there with Pakistan will remain with them. Those Kashmiris who don’t like to live in India and hate us can simply go and live over there.

So if people like SA Geelani and his supporters want we can give them free pass to go and live in Pakistan. All fanatics who think Pak as their country should just go and live there. Let's see that time, if Pakistan accepts them or not. They should be given three options, a) Stay in India Peacefully b) Go and live in Pakistan and do whatever they want over there c) just get killed or live in prison. Its as simple as that. I don't know why these cheerleaders of Pakistan want to merge with Pakistan when they are seeing what happened with Mujahirs and what is happening in PoK. The whole world is saying Pakistan is a failed state and these morons are cheering for Pakistan.

I am compromising with our traditional stand of undivided Kashmir which is just there on Indian maps but its becoming a practical reality is a distant thing. The whole Kashmir as you see in map can be ours only in case of chaos created by breaking up of Pakistan in four different countries of Balochistan, Sindh, NWFP and Pakistani Punjab. But it doesn’t seem possible in near future so lets be realistic and settle for what we can have. At the same time we should make efforts to take land back from China. It will be a little easier with China as no religious extremism is involved. It would be a diplomatic effort.

2) Abolish article 370 and let people of India become legitimate part of the state electoral process. This will bring majority of the anti nationals in Kashmir to minority.

3) Divide J&K into three states of Jammu, Kashmir and Laddakh.

4) Just kill those found to be involved in anti national activities. When China kills Jehadi militants in Xinxiang province than no country on earth criticizes them than why should we bother about criticism.

5) Elections in J&K like any other Indian state should be free and fair.

Independent Kashmir is not an option because independent Kashmir cant survive and any level headed person knows that. Pakistan through its proxies like SA Geelani will annex Kashmir as it has done with PoK.

Greater Autonomy for Kashmir is not an option as I dont know what else we can give as autonomy. So if given autonomy in all aspects of life isnt working fine then just take it back and make this state as any other state of India.

There is a new talk among so called intellectuals of Indian secularism. I mentioned Arundhati "Begger" Roy earlier. Now we have Vir Sanghvi, Swaminathan A. Aiyar and Jug Suraiya included in this list. They say just give Kashmir away because it seems their majority wants it to be like that. But my dear intellectuals it was the same situation in Punjab, Assam, Mizoram, Nagaland, Manipur, Tripura and even Naxals wants it in all over India so are you guys going to suggest the same thing if some bunch of fanatics and anti nationals get together and demand something from you? If some jehadies get succeeded in getting what they want in Kashmir than whats the guarantee that some Jehadi from bordering area of Assam and Bengal wont start for the same demand. What is the guarantee that some LTTE like organization will also demand the same thing? What is the guarantee that some Khalistan Zindabad Force starts demanding the same thing in Punjab? What is the guarantee that some minority dominated districts here and in India wont start demanding the same thing? These so called intellectuals are just bunch of thugs who wants to comment on any thing in the world. They just think to be different from present prevailing mood they have to resort to cheap gimmicks and risking national integrity to gain some publicity.

Solution to Kashmir problem lies in making it non exclusive as any other Indian state and this policy will change the face of Kashmir. The current agitation for Amarnath Shrine is not a fight between Hindus and Muslims but its fight between Nationals and patriots verses anti national parasites. Those who compare Kashmir with Tibet Issue of China miss one important fact. Tibet was never part of China’s Geography and never linked culturally with China while Kashmir from time immemorial is in ethos of India. We already suffered one partition of our motherland but not any more. These solution require the will of a nation to stand as one in case of situations like this but when we have so many anti national, publicity hungry secular columnists and intellectuals, we will continue to face all sorts of difficulties as these parasites and viruses are making India sick from with in. the sooner we get rid of these viruses the better its for health of the nation. Arise and awake Indians. Take destiny of this nation in your hand. There should be only one Passion.. Rise of this Great Nation…

One Abhinav Among A Billion In 80 Years: Is This What We Deserve As A Proud Emerging Power?

2008-08-12T18:01:00.003-05:00

Abhinav Bindra you made me and entire honest Indian population around the world proud. Is it just a coincidence that we have "Singh is King " movie ruling chart of the box offices and Bindra a Sikh ruling hearts of a billion plus population. I have often wondered about why the nation of a billion plus population doesn't even have a single gold in individual events with participation history in Olympic Games which goes to 80 years.

Although modern Olympic Games were officially started in 1896, India started her journey to become best in sports in1928, Amsterdam Olympics. We played our best in field hockey and won eight Olympic gold medals, the last one around 28 years ago in Moscow Olympics. Now see the absolute disgusting turn of events where we have even failed to qualify for the present Olympics. Hockey being the so called national sport should have been given the priority over everything, but when we have our failed Cricket Superstars ruling ad campaigns who cares about anything else.

I cant say all but majority of Indian kids have played cricket once in their lifetime. I used to play too. Cricket became hugely popular after our win in 1983 world cup. Another factor which comes to my mind behind the popularity of sports like cricket is because its really cheap as far as initial investment goes and you don't need any big ground to play it out. You can play it any where. Majority of the Indians being not so well financially looked cricket as their national pass time sport. When you have your stomach to worry about than I guess you won't think about any sports as you career option because you know that in the end, the big burocratic and corrupt setup will kill your ambition and you will be left with nothing in the end.

Because of the employment reasons majority of Indian middle class parents pushed their children to study more and more so that they can have a meaning of livelihood with them. I guess most of us have the same story. Even if someone did well in sports they knew that their parents wont agree with their idea of becoming sportsperson as sports except cricket isn't known to many as means of earning some money. I guess our parents were right in this regard as there was really less money and there were a lot of things to do with that limited fund.

The successive Indian governments which have shown their callous attitude towards even providing basic amenities like education, health, drinking water and electricity to their general population then no one can expect them to provide some best athletic facilities so that India can win some medals in international competitions. You can check any particular sports federation in India and you will find some stupid corrupt political thug ruling that federation and treating it as his personal property for granting favors. The sports complexes around India have become Goonda producing complexes and no one gives a damn about that. Well when you have your livelihood to worry about than who cares about what is happening in some sport complex. The officials and politicians have become so corrupt that they denied one promising woman weight lifter "Monica Devi" to participate in 2008 Olympics. They charged her for taking banned drugs but recent tests again shown that she wasn't taking any drugs and it was some stupid personal rivalry and vested interests which denied India a chance for another medal along with Bindra.

There is no hue and cry in media over this open assault on the nation's soul where a honest promising woman athlete and subsequently the nation gets denied a chance for a medal in Olympic by some corrupt officials. If this thing can happen with a athlete of such a high repute then you can imagine what can happen to a ordinary citizen and that's why sometimes I thank my parents to keep me on the track of education and nothing else. In India everything has become a politics and like they did in recent trust votes politicians can go to any length to earn some more money. They don't have shame and their skin has become so thick that we can make them live along rhinos in Kaziranga National Park.

Abhinav Bindra's success is his personal success where no Indian or Indian government can take claim of even doing anything for him except giving him an Indian passport. He could manage to achieve what he has because of determination and resources provided by his father. His father saw his unique talent as early as he was some 7 years old and harnessed his potential in that direction. Since his father was resourceful, he could arrange Abhinav's coaching in Germany and for that training government of India paid nothing. It was a personal effort of a proud and resourceful father and his determined kid. And you can see the result with this Gold Medal.

My question is, when some Abhinav, after getting training in Germany can shoot for Gold than why you or I or our future generations can't do it here in India if we have facilities. I guess if it was there than we wouldn't have waited for this Gold for past 80 years. The government which should have provided athlete like him world class facilities in India, some times back went on blocking the bullet supplies for shooting championships all over India. As these bullets are not made in India they had to be imported and government said its against national security. How silly these arguments are when we have Dowd and ISI smuggling all RDX and Kalashnikovs and their bullets all over India under the nose of the government. Well better sense prevailed and the supplies were restored.

An interesting fact is China was nothing in Olympic Games until 1984. I am not a big fan of China but I admire their strong will as a Nation. They have got a national character and when they decide they have to go behind something they will just declare an open war sort of thing for that. That's another story with Human Rights and data manipulation but keeping discussion relevant to this topic I just liked their strategy for winning the ultimate crown in Olympics. They first focused on some specific sports like gymnastics, diving, badminton, table tennis and shooting. You can see their record that they have become one of the best teams in these sports. They were second behind US in Olympic medals in last 2004 Athens Olympics and they are trying to become number one in this one. In such a short span they have achieved a great feat and that's because of dedicated, mostly non corrupt officials in sport field and a national desire to become best. I guess mostly the sports officials in India are there to eat and suck player's flesh and blood. Indian sport officials don't know anything about that sport but they corrupt these places by playing dirty politics and indulging in corruption which amounts to crores of rupees.

We have achieved tremendous success in information technology because government wasn't aware of what is going on. India's problems are its politicians and corrupt officials. First we have to kick out all politicians ruling the different sport federation and replace them with former athletes of respective fields, as they will understand the need of the players better than anyone else. There is no need of separate sports ministry in India. This ministry is of no use. Its another layer of eating into funds for different sports federations. Instead finance minister should directly give amount to these federations every year in annual budget. We should initially concentrate more on few sports which involves less physical strength like shooting and archery, than gradually move on to others like badminton, table tennis and kayaking. If we start preparing now we have chance of winning atleast 10 gold medals in these fields in next 2012 Olympics.

I hope general public will start finding more heroes in other sports than in drastically inconsistent Cricket team. We should support Hockey, Football and other teams where we have chance of winning. All sport teams in India except cricket are self made. All they need is our support. Cricket has become like a rich spoilt child with no responsibility at all. This is the time when we should shift our attention to other neglected children in family and provide them with all necessary things so that they can come first in their class and make us all proud. I want many more Abhinavs in all sports in India.. I don't want to wait for another 80 years for another gold medal in Olympic. Now is the time for us .. Now is the time for youth of India to show what we are capable of to the whole world. Arise and Awake Indians .. Take Destiny of this great nation in your own hand..

How To Reform Politics In India: Bottom Up Approach Is the Only Solution..

2008-08-08T19:09:00.001-05:00

There are sometimes in your life when you just want to throw out something like you throw out garbage from your home. You get a broom or a vacuum cleaner and then check every corner of your home and courtyard, make that stinky garbage come out from those difficult corners and floor then collect that garbage, throw it in dumpster and forget about it. I want to do a similar thing with all these corrupt and traitor politicians, officers and citizens of India, as these types of people are not more than garbage for me or for any law abiding patriotic Indian. I want to bundle all corrupts and traitors in some big bag and throw them in Indian Ocean. But like you clean your home every day from garbage, cleaning corruption will also be a similar process. Like a good housewife you have to clean your home daily otherwise that garbage would try to make its presence permanent. But for doing that you need a strong hand which can take the pain of cleaning it everyday so that all other members of the family can enjoy a pleasant stay in home.

Just think of yourself as that good housewife and all honest Indians as your family members and all these corrupt thugs as the garbage and you will know what I am talking about. My frustrations are not over yet. Deep down inside its hurting my pride as an Indian when I see so many corrupts from all political parties of India making an open loot of honest tax payers money. All these jobless politicians enjoy VIP security, plush bungalows in all prime properties in all states, uninterrupted power supplies, good schools for their kids and clean mineral water bottles to drink and leave common citizens like us to fight for each and everything in our life. These politicians survive on our money like parasite with no accountability towards common citizen. When inflation is reaching some 15 years high and prices of basic survival things like food is increasing every day these corrupt thugs are busy in paying each other crores of rupees in bribes. These politicians don't care about what you and me go through as an ordinary citizen, because they have rarely lived that ordinary life and those who in past lived like that have become immune to your and my problems as they have forgotten from where they have come from.

Politicians are a special breed of humans. There is a sentence which I read long while back regarding politicians. It says " A politician is a person who promises to build a bridge even if there is no river there." This definition fits any politician anywhere in the world most of the times. People may say that if you are pretending to know this much about politics then why don't you join the game and then criticize. Well good question and I guess I have a good answer. I was born into a lower middle class family, where much emphasis was given on getting good education and become something good professionally so that you can earn livelihood. I guess I chose a safe but wrong profession in engineering. I should have gone for IAS and I know that would have all my well wishers really happy. Why IAS? Because being an IAS/IPS gives you the exposure to the big political bosses in short time and from there you can affect life of so many common people positively and get their affection and respect. After that it becomes easy to get a Loksabha ticket from a party and fight elections. Being IAS/IPS makes you uncommon and gives lots of scope for nurturing your constituency. If I start by getting membership of any political party then I may remain just a member throughout my life that is just going to shout slogans when some big guy wants me to. Financial condition is not that strong where I can just go on and do something of my own. I know all what I said is going to be counted like excuses but still this is the case from my side. So I decided to get myself attached to the things which I can do by just being ordinary like donating for a worthy cause, making people aware of the real situation and things like that. As of now this is the only thing in my hand. I don't know the future but I am eagerly waiting for it. I would like to open a school, a hospital and an old age home for poor when I have enough money to do so. Anyways I guess its enough about me.

Well politics which was meant to serve the common mass has become a tool of exploiting the same. There is so much our elected representative can do for us by just doing their job properly but still they don't do it. the only thing on which they all agree inside parliament is when some bill comes up for raising the perks and benefits for themselves like how many free phone calls they will be allowed to make, how many train and plane ticket reservation they can have for free and stuff like that. Only communists oppose it for the sake of opposing it as they know that this bill is going to pass and I guess its one of their guilty pleasures since they like opposing thing. There have been so many cases of serious crimes against so many of our sitting MPs and MLAs. If anyone of us sees their behavior inside parliament house than head just wants to get buried in mud for thoughts that we elected these types of rouge elements to rule us who doesn't even know how to talk properly. Corruption runs deep in their vain as if they have some divine birth right to loot common public funds. These guys haven't even spared fodder for cattle, boots for soldier and policemen, wheat for poor in India from their list of scams. I sometimes wonder how these guys can have so much time for systematically looting so many public funds but no time to work of their poor constituencies. They come like some migratory bird once in a five year in your constituency for not to be seen again for another five years if government completes its term. Well I guess you know it all very well.

But why these politicians in whom the common people, who vote, put so much trust just betray their cause without even feeling guilty of their actions? How politicians skin becomes so thick that they can't feel the pain of the common masses? Why they just become disconnected with reality on ground? And how shameless these people are that even after doing nothing for 5 years they again come and stand in front of your door? well that's why they are special species and that's why we should control the quality of people who are going to govern us as politicians. When an IAS/IPS officer works so hard to get his job than why shouldn't we have some criteria for those who are going to give orders to these officers? Its not like that an IAS/IPS officer doesn't do any corruption but still they have some morality left in them. Having high education is no guarantee that a person wont indulge in corrupt and immoral activities but atleast that education makes a person aware about what is wrong and what is right.

An educated politician wont sign off some paper without reading and having understood all pros and cons. He don't have to rely on other people to make him understand the real situation. So what would be that level of education desired in a politician at any level of governance? My heart goes for a graduate but I know many people who are going to govern a village in Panchayat don't have luxury of attending the college. That's why we should have separate level of education at different level of governance. For Panchayats it can be matriculation or 10^th pass as minimum. For Nagarpalika's in semi urban areas it should be high school or 12^th pass as minimum. For urban area municipalities, state legislative assemblies and parliament it should be graduation as minimum education criteria. Well having that minimum education is first step than those who are getting elected should go to morality classes once in a year for rest of their five years as people's representative. These morality or people governance classes should be held by institutions of repute such as IIMs or other major business schools. The curriculum of these morality classes should include one lecture on religious aspects regarding corruption from every religion present in India. It can be collection of selective quotes from Bhagwat Geeta or other Ved and Upnishads, Quran, Bible, Buddhist and Jain literature, Guru Granth Sahib and Zend-Avesta. This class will make our politician aware about commonality in all religions against corruption in public life.

Another addition to this process would be we should be having an exam on the pattern of IAS for people who are interested in joining politics. Those who pass out from this exam should be absorbed by political parties in India. There should be a percentage of these pass outs in every party based on their primary membership. Some of you may laugh at me but see when MBAs and engineers from top colleges are so sought after in corporate class than why those who make policies for all of us shouldn't have any body of higher caliber. When an MBA or engineer is given so many responsibilities in corporate world than why our political parties don't have the same competent fresh blood every year. This will also solve the problem of youths not joining politics. These political parties can go on and take interviews of these candidates like any other company do on campus interview. The seats should be very limited so that they remain high in demand.

Another thing we can do is to make laws related to corruption crimes for anyone should be harsh so that anyone who is indulging in these activities would know that he or she is going to get a quick and severe punishment for what they are doing now. There should be separate courts for prosecution of corruption related crimes until we see reduction in these crimes. Common people should be encouraged to file complains against any government servant working in RTOs, passport offices, PWDs, SEBs, railway reservations and other departments like that.

I don't know if this will be a guarantee against all corruption that we face in our daily life but still when rulers are good than the workers or government servants working under them will also become somewhat well. All the above measures will take care of the Government related people to an extent but what about common people like us? We the common mass of India is also responsible in the same way. That's why when we cry for our rights, we should be ready to perform our duties for the nation. The least we can do is to go and vote on the voting day as per our choice. Whom you vote is not what I am looking for but you should stand up and be counted when the nation demands it from you. And that's what I meant by bottom up approach. We the common citizens are at bottom of governance pyramid but its us for whom the government is there. Government is there to serve us and not to rule us like kings. Government is there to make our life easy and not to complicate. This is an era of customer service, when you don't get that proper customer service from any of your service provider than you register your protest and think of changing the service provider. Something similar to this is needed when you get a dumb government. We have to make our fellow citizens aware about importance of their votes. Vote is the only thing you have to register your protest in democracy. Use it to change your service provider if you are not happy with them. Arise and awake Indians..

Extraordinary Problem and Its Extraordinary Solution: Best Way To Tackle Terrorism In India

2008-07-28T21:48:00.001-05:00

Till now after reading my previous blogs you all might have a little idea about my writings. I try to formulate a solution for a given problem faced by our nation. Many times these solutions may not be as good as I think of them to be but still I like to try and think about all which is going on in our surroundings and issues which affect our daily lives. I know I am nobody but still I like to spread my thoughts and that’s why I write to you all who know me. You guys are the best judge of my thoughts. I don’t like to be pessimist and always try to look for the positive side. But terrorism is one of the thing about which I can hardly see anything positive. This current blog is been written after thinking of many days where I tried to think different aspects of this problem. Best thing would have been ending of a ideal Bollywood movie where the bad terrorist would return to home after persuasion from his family, friend and lover and lead a normal life. But unfortunately real life is very much different than real one.

There are certain things which you should think before reading this article further on. These terrorists are not sparing anyone. Earlier they were just attacking police and army posts and taking their revenge against India. They shifted their pattern in Kashmir and Punjab in 1980s and rest of India after Mumbai bomb blasts of 1993. In this new pattern they killed civilians on streets, bazaars and trains. Than attacked places of worships and now with this Hospital blasts in Ahemdabad they have added another very soft target to inflict maximum killings and mayhem. According to latest new reports terrorists planted the bomb in the car which was continuously following the ambulance which was bringing blast victims to hospital. They blasted car in hospital to kill as many innocents as they can through that blast. Now after this act of heinous crime nothing is safe in India. So you never know when the next blast is going to rip your or your loved ones body apart anywhere in India. We are left with very few choices; either you can just sit and pray that you or your loved ones are never going to be victim of this heinous crime against humanity or you can learn by seeing deaths of other people’s loved ones and act now to become more responsible citizen and perform your duties for the nation. Problem is we in India never think of those who are blown apart in these blasts as our own people. Since we and our loved ones are not killed so we will just sit or offer prayers in our places of worship. We act as a passive society which just waits for another bomb blast and speak the same dialogue again and again after any of these acts. Just see our honorable home minister Shivraj Patil. There have been many bomb blasts in his tenure as 4 years of Home Minister and he repeated the same dialogue of not letting any culprit go unpunished for these crimes against citizens of India. Now its altogether a different matter that no prime suspect of any of these blasts has been caught yet. Even though the one who is inside the jail waiting for his death penalty to be executed for past 2 years (Afzal Guru: convicted in Parliament Attack Case of 2003) by authorities, is been kept alive because this stupid government think that it will anger some people of a particular community. I want to ask here if anybody who feels anger by seeing a convicted terrorist like Afzal to be hanged till death, then shouldn’t we identify that person as future terrorist. Why someone will feel anger by seeing a criminal getting his punishment? And if this government of Sonia Maino thinks that a particular community’s member will think like that than isn’t this government is the most communal government ever ruled in India? This government is saying that all members of a particular community sympathize with convicted terrorist and in my view it’s the worst thing you can do to someone.

So anyway Congress and its spineless leaders are not going to be in my good books because of their deeds against this nation. I just want that we should not wait for another bomb blast to happen which involves casualty of our loved ones. For me all law abiding Indian citizens are loved ones and anyone’s unnatural death because of crimes like this makes the same impact every time. Terrorism is not an ordinary crime and solution to this problem is also not going to be ordinary. Sometimes we have to swallow some bitter pill so that we can be cured of a major illness. My solution to this major illness is the same bitter pill. We can think over it and make our government pass this law or we can just wait for another blast to happen and than cry.

I don’t consider terrorists and their sympathizers as humans because they are involved in inhuman acts. Since they are not humans so there cant be any human rights for them. These terrorists are like mad dogs and we kill mad dogs if we find out about them, since there is a danger from these mad dogs to common society. But there is a little difference between dogs and humans. In humans we have something very special which is known to all of us as our families and close friends. We share our grief, sorrow and pains with them. Families and close friends most of the times act as support structure for any individual and most of the times all family members know whats going on with other members life. Parents watch their kids and hope for their wellbeing and most of the times they know whats going on with their kids. If not parents than close friends and siblings are aware of all or some of the mess which we have in our life.

I would like to propose for a anti terror law which gives the same punishment to immediate family members and close friends as of convicted terrorist which is death. Please don’t get mad at me as this is the only effective solution which can prevent bomb blasts from happening. This type of law will act as a deterrent in would be bomb planter’s mind about the consequences of his act. He or she will think thousands of times before planting any explosive device anywhere. Just finding and killing a hardcore terrorist wont solve the problem now. Because those who plant bombs to kill innocents don’t have any regard for their lives. They don’t care about their own lives. But when life of terrorist’s family members are involved, who most of the time know what their daughters and sons are upto, he or she wont try to do such type of inhuman act majority of the times.

We can have certain provisions which can give pardon to a family. Most important of this provision would be if family members themselves inform law authorities about their terrorist minded children than they should get immunity from punishment. This law will work wonders in many ways as parents will start taking care of their own kids so that they don’t fall in wrong hands and all would be terrorists think about damage involved after they get caught and convicted for terror crimes.

There should be a separate police and courts to tackle this type of problem, which should directly work under a committee headed by army chief. Involving Army chief will give assurance of impartiality for those who are getting convicted under new anti terror law. Legal experts can define several options which can prevent punishment for innocents. Terrorism is violent but more of the fear psychological crime which tries to feed fear in common citizen’s mind. We should have such a law which takes this fear to terrorist and their sympathizer’s mind. They should know that they are going to pay heavily for their inhuman acts. It should be the terrorist who live in fear and not the common masses of our country. Because its terrorist who are doing bad things and not the common masses.

This law will solve all types of terror by Jehadi fundamentalist, ULFAs, Maoists, Naxalites, NSCNs and likes of them.

Another must thing to do is form all India school curriculum and all children irrespective of their faiths and communities should be taught same course throughout India. If some parents wants their kids to have religious education than they can go there after school hours or on weekends. If some parents want their children to become Pandits, Maulavis or priests then there should be a curriculum dedicatedly dealing with religious education in all religion. But course taught should be from one central government authority and government may take help of all religious leader heads for making that curriculum. This type of thing would promote national harmony and will prevent kids from getting carried away with unhealthy thoughts.

I think I said enough. But still in my view these are the best solutions for terror free India. If you like it then please try to circulate it around. Please think on what kind of India we want for our future generation. Think and act. Time is running out. Arise and awake Indians..

UPA Won Trust Vote Using Corrupt Thugs : Who is Responsible?

2008-07-23T17:20:00.001-05:00

The UPA and “Honest” Manmohan Singh won trust vote in parliament. My head wants itself to be buried deep with shame as I see what kind of corrupt thugs are ruling this great nation of ours. I wasn’t feeling like writing for quite some time even though many burning issues caught my attention like Baba Amarnath Land Transfer or hiking the creamy layer limit for OBCs or defeat of CPM in local body polls. I thought what I can do by just writing some piece in blog. Who is going to read that even if I write truth there? But as always it’s the only way I can remove frustrations from inside. I watched with horror and disgust some MPs throwing 3 crore cash inside parliament and telling us all that its bribe money given to them by Amar Singh of SP for just being absent from trust vote.

A sickening disgusting chill ran though my spinal cord and I started wondering whats wrong with us Indians as a society. A society which is producing so many corrupt leaders, A society which doesn’t give any value to merit, a society which just remains a mute spectator of extortion of the powerless by powerful, a society which is just running behind money and not thinking about the ways to get that, a society which reads scriptures, goes to temples, churches, mosques and gurudwaras daily but don’t hesitate in doing heinous crimes for sake of power and money, a society which doeant believe in paying taxes honestly and cry when they see some politicians or officials making tons of money through corrupt means, a society which just believes in getting its work done for railway tickets, passports, driving licenses, water and electricity connections by paying bribes, a society which worships women as gods in various forms but still kill someone’s daughters and sisters for dowry and the unborn girl child, a society which can spend hundreds of rupees on pizzas, multiplex movies but shy away from feeding empty stomach of less fortunate, a society which looks down upon people who earn their honest living by working as laborer, gardener, waiter, vegetable vendor and domestic helps as if they are not human enough to have that self respect, a society which just cares about someone who has money and power but never worries about their means to get that money. We have become a big society of hypocrites where moral values and merit doesn’t count for anything. Where the one who says truth to be told keep quite or made silent by murders or threats.

I know we all know about this but my problem is we all are not doing anything about this. Infact why I am telling you all, I myself is not doing anything about it. Its so disgusting to even think about what type of people are ruling us and being made important by this stupid electronic and print media. The likes of Lalus, Mulayams, Amar Singhs who are nose deep in corruption are being projected as savior of masses. One day one of these will become prime minister and than only god knows whats going to happen to India. These politicians have enough money to protect the government but I am sure these fellows don’t have money to spend on food for empty stomachs, drinking water, electricity, health care and roads for millions of poor of this nation. But I don’t blame these politicians. Its us the common masses are the only people to blame. We have allowed ourselves to be manipulated by these corrupt thugs on basis of caste, community and religion. These corrupt thugs are product of this hypocrite and corrupt society of ours and unless the morality content of common people of India is going to increase, I am sure we are going to be ruled by people which this society deserves.

All these corrupt thugs are not aliens from Mars. They are from among us. Its us who are responsible for this mess around us. Unless we as a society do something about this we are doomed to see many more Amar Singhs, Mulayams and Lalus ruling us. Arise and Awake.. Take destiny of this great nation in your hand.. Don’t think that you are not going to affected by these corrupt politicians. We as a society have become so mentally bankrupt that unless someone is going to kill or harass some of our own family member, we think that we don’t have any problem in our country. Today it may be your neighbor but tomorrow its going to be your turn and at that time please don’t expect anyone to come and help you. You have to deal with that problem like your neighbor whom you left alone in their struggle. Unless we are going to think every Indian as our neighbor we are going to be doomed as a nation.

मेरी कवितायें - ये बन्धन

2008-06-06T17:00:00.002-05:00

जैसे पंछी भोर मे गाए , जैसे पंख खोल उड़ जाए ,
ये अनुभव ऐसा है जैसे , कोई गंगा नहा के आए !

जैसे भंवरा ख़ुद ही आए , एक फूल मे गुम हो जाए ,
ये बन्धन तो ऐसा है जैसे , हृदय रुके और साँसे थम जाए !

वो आवाज़ सुनाई दे और हृदय के तार बज जाए,
ये संगीत ऐसा है जैसे , कान्हा अधरों पे मुरली सजाये !

सूखी धरती सावन को पाये , जैसे चकोर चाँद को चाहे ,
ये प्रेम ऐसा है जैसे , भक्त और इश्वर एक हो जाए !!

मेरी कवीतायें - मेरा खुदा क्यों गलत हो गया ?

2008-06-04T14:55:00.003-05:00

दील की ये जलन कीसी को दिखाई नहीं जाती ,
बात ही कुछ ऐसी है की बताई नहीं जाती,
ख़ुद ही पी रहा हूँ इस ज़हर को हँसते हँसते ,
पलक अगर भीगी हो तो उठाई नही जाती !

क्या ग़लत कर गया ये भी जान ना पाया ,
अचानक रूठ गया जो था मेरा साया ,
मरते हुए भी निकला तू जान है मेरी ,
मेरे हर पल की ये खुशी दिन रात है मेरी !!

रोका नही फ़िर भी उसने, ये खंजर चला दिया ,
मेरे अरमानों का प्यारा सा, मन्दिर गिरा दिया ,
क्या मिल गया उसे इससे, ये मैं समझ नही पाया ,
इन्सान हूँ खिलौना नहीं , क्यों ये वो समझ नही पाया !

दर्द भरी ये आवाज़ शायद खुदा सुन भी लेता ,
उस बेरहम को ये चीख सुनाई नहीं देती ,
जिसे मैंने खुदा माना वो ही धोखा दे गया ,
मुहब्बते कहीं ऐसे निभाई नहीं जाती !!

मेरी कवीतायें - जाने क्यों ?

2008-06-03T11:18:00.004-05:00

जाने क्यों फ़िर कीसी से मैंने प्यार किया ,
जाने क्यों फ़िर कीसी पे मैंने ऐतबार किया ,
सोचा था मिलेगी खुशी ज़िंदगी भर के लीये ,
बस इस चाह के लीये ख़ुद को बेकरार किया !

बह रहे थे आँसूं मेरी आंखों से ,
देख के फ़िर भी उसने मुझपे ये वार किया ,
प्यार करने की सजा ऐसी देगा मेरा साया ,
बस इसी सोच ने मेरा जीना दुश्वार किया !

क्यों मेरे प्यार को खुश नहीं रख पाया मैं ?
उसके काजल के लीये ख़ुद को नहीं जला पाया मैं,
उसके होठों की वो हँसी नहीं बन पाया मैं ,
उसकी बिंदिया की वो चमक नहीं बन पाया मैं १

उसके माथे का वो टीका नहीं बन पाया मैं,
उसकी पायल के वो घुंघरू नहीं बन पाया मैं,
उसकी आंखों की शरारत नहीं बन पाया मैं,
उसकी साँसों की वो महक नहीं बन पाया मैं!

दील ही नही रहा फ़िर ये जीना कैसा ?
साँसों के यूं चलने का मतलब कैसा ?
इस तड़प मैं यूं जलने का मतलब कैसा ?
इस ज़हर को यूं पीने का मतलब कैसा ?

पर ये उम्मीद है के यूं मरती भी नहीं ,
उसकी यादों ने हर वक्त दील को पार किया,
पता नहीं कब आ जाए कब्र पे मिलने ,
आँखे खोल के हर पल बस उसका इंतज़ार किया !!

Gloomy Thoughts : Whats The Way Out?

2008-06-02T22:40:00.004-05:00

Many people in their life at least once feel that life is really worthless and they dont have any point in living this painful experience. They feel that its better to finish it off in once than to go through the same torture every single minute. Well to an extent this feeling is justified in my view as Julius Ceaser once said that " I may find a man who is willing to give his life for me but it would be really difficult to find someone who is willing to endure the pain and fight for the goal." I guess most of us will agree to this statement. Well I am human and I have my share of these thoughts too when sometimes I felt that what I am doing with my life and its better to put a full stop than to living the life in all commas. But I again stumble upon the bigger picture where I think of this broader question "Is my life only my life? or Is it such a waste that I should just quit and end it? or why not devout this life to some meaningful purposes atleast that would something in somebody's life? or why to waste whatever I have learned till now and why try to solve so many burning issues pending in front of humanity?".

Well some of you might be laughing that this guy who isnt even able to solve his life's small problem is talking of devoting life to some bigger cause. But I saw many instances where a negative incident in someone's life changed the whole world. Whether its throwing of Mahatma Gandhi from train or insult of Chankya by Dhananand or insult of Goswami Tulsidas by his wife. In all these instances these great men learned from the mistake of others who were insulting them and saw their mission in greater things.

Thats what my thought is. Why to waste this precious gift of God. Why not start the change from with in and get devoted to something bigger in life. These gloomy thoughts have their origin in many things but result is same. These thoughts drive a healthy mind for doing stupid and crazy things which it wont be doing when situation was normal. I often wonder why the love affairs which break many times dont break on good note. Why there is so much abuse for the same person who was apple of your eye sometimes back. May be some situations force either of them to do it where the other one thinks that its better to see their partner happy with some one else than to be unhappy with you throughout the life. But i guess this thinking is wrong because some temporary situation which forced you to take that breakup decision might not be valid one and it may happen that you end up repenting that one decision throughout your life. Many times it happens out of getting something better. But I guess if you live with someone and than leave them just to be with someone better in your thoughts you are taking a selfish decision which is bound to fail. As in matter of hearts selfishness dont have any place. Why these breaks hurt some one so badly that it drives them to do insanely things. When you start that beautiful thing with someone you never think that this beauty is going to end. Well lovers are most optimist or most pessimist people of the world. They dont follow the middle path.

When there is even slight chance of being with each other they become so happy that they forget everything and when something doesnt go their way they just want to destroy the world. I guess this is the special breed of humans. I know by writing it all here isnt going to solve anyone's problem. People will continue to do what they want. These wants till they die are the only source of misery. I want to be a free bird who doesnt care about anything. I want to live life tension free but that doesnt always happen. I am ordinary so my fate is ordinary and it will proceed on its own way. I have only one thing in my hand only one thing which is doing my job properly and I guess rest will be taken care by God. I shouldnt waste my life like this. Its worth is pains if I am able to make even some positive change in someone's life. I dont want to destroy this precious gift of God. I would like to die while doing God's work. He and he alone should decide when he wants to take this thing from me. It was given by him and it would be proper if he takes it own his own. I shouldnt interfere in his process. I should let things take their own course and just float on life's river as he wants me to do.

दो पल की वो देके खुशी , सदीयों रोने को छोड़ गया !
आंखों से गीरती बारीश मे वो , मुझको अकेला छोड़ गया !!

अपनी यादों के खंजर से वो, प्यार भरा दील तोड़ गया !
अरमानों का लहू बहने लगा है , वो रीस-रीस के मरता छोड़ गया !!

कसमे वादे सब भूल गया , वो हाथ झटक यूं छोड़ गया !
जलता हुआ भी देख के मुझको , वो अपना मुह यूं मोड़ गया !!

तपती धूप मे प्यासा छोड़ के , वो सारी बूंदे नीचोड़ गया !
आखरी दांव बस उसपे लगा था , वो मेरा भरोसा तोड़ गया !!

मुझे यकीं है इन्हे ढूंढने, तुम कभी न कभी तो आओगे !

तेरी यादों के लफ्जों से, कीतने गीत लीखे हैं मैंने ,
मुझे यकीं है बीखरे लफ्जों को , तुम कभी तो गाने आओगे!

ये ज़नाज़ा नीकल चुका है , फ़ीर भी तुमको खोज रहा हूँ ,
मुझे यकीं है मेरी कब्र पर , तुम कभी तो रोने आओगे !!

Happy Ending For BJP After Devegowda's Betrayal In Kar-Natak : Ma Kaveri's Water Turned Saffron Now Who Is Next?

2008-05-25T16:51:00.009-05:00

I have always believed in words of greatest political thinker of India: Chankya. Who once said that expecting a government servant to not to indulge in corruption is like expecting a fish to not to drink water. Now what this has got to do with my blog? Well in politics you have to choose a lesser evil to govern as everyone knows that no political party is perfect in every aspect. They have some or other weakness on which any voter has to compromise while they vote for them. BJP is my lesser evil and I hope that one day they will become no evil party and serve well for the cause of nation building. I am not saying that they are not doing it now but still they have a long road to travel to become the perfect governing party. I have supported BJP because of Sangh as I see Sangh as only nation building social organization. If any body is affiliated with Sangh than in means that they have something of a national and patriotic character and I like honest patriotic people so I like BJP as of now. BJP is a political party and it has its own limitations so I can digest some mistakes which they have done like not opposing so called OBC reservation bill as this bill is against the idea of resurgent India. But anyways its political hot potato and I guess no party can oppose such a populist move unless Indians themselves reject such moves and vote for development of great Mother India.

Since BJP is my choice for vote so I was really happy to see saffron getting firm foothold in south of great Vindhya Mountain range like any other patriotic Indian. People of Karnatak have set a great example by giving a tight democratic slap on the face of some narrow minded regional outfit JD(S). I dont like regional parties as they work against idea of national interest and promote their regionalism for survival. Thats why it was really heartwarming to see BJP coming to power in Karnatak on its own. Well they still need some 3 seats to get a simple majority and I think it will be good for BJP to break JD(S) and merge its MLAs to itself to rule peacefully and carry out development work for next 5 years in Karnatak as per people's aspirations. People of Karnatak have trusted BJP and now its turn of BJP to show how it can be a different political party than all others. Narendra Modi has shown the way for all Chief Ministers to emulate. He has shown that how an honest and hardworking ruler change things for good in India and I think people all over India are yearning for this thing only.

Only sycophancy to a particular family isnt going to work anymore and people are not going to believe in empty promises. Congress has just given empty promises to this country for over 53 years and I guess people have seen enough of these hypocrites. The crowned prince of Congress and his Rajmata have failed miserably in all state elections so far except Assam. They won Assam with the help of illegal migrants from Bangladesh like CPM in West Bengal. But rest of India isnt border state of Bangladesh where they can do such things. Great thing about Congress is they give credit of even a small stone laying ceremony for development work to this Gandhi family but when they fail in actual test in elections, they defend them and say state elections are fought on local issue and other blah blah..

I was watching live results and comments made by so called congress stalwarts and sycophants like Jayanti Natrajan, Abhishek Singhavi, Jayapal Reddy and Veerappa Moily made me laugh most of the times. They were worried that their caste calculations didnt worked out well. By their statement we can conclude that its congress which kept India divide on British lines on basis of casts and religions. Thats why they kept whole country illiterate and ignorant so that they can rule. Well even Bellary rejected Sonia in this assembly elections. Rahul baba's discovery of Karnatak hasnt been able to give anything in return. The great hope in Siddharamiah and S M Krishna hasnt worked out well. It seems that instead of Rahul Baba's discovering people of India its other way round. People of India are discovering that this Nehru Gandhi king clan is good for nothing. Everywhere in all state elections wherever Crowned prince and his mother have campaigned, they have been rejected by people of India. I think congress has failed in keeping watch on mood of the nation. This mood of resurgent India where people have started thinking of person's character and ideology before voting for them is going to change the face of India pretty soon. This change started with elections in Gujrat where ModiJi has shown that if you present good choice in front of people, they will obviously vote for them.

There are few things which are working in BJP's way now. First Sangh's Swyamsevak's are given due respect for all the job that they are doing in such elections. Second, they are projecting a sincere and hardworking person with good track record as CM's choice. People respond positively when they know who is going to be leader of the pack. Third, they are giving chance to new and fresh faces instead of old guard as first time MLAs. This thing works to an extent as many times the old guard after coming to power gets corrupted and start behaving like the same old Congress. Fourth, they are including failure of Congress at center in doing anything good for India even after being four year in power. Congress's empty talk on all national issues angers people everywhere as they can see that the new so called "Aam Admi" of India is just one Gandhi Family. As this Congress central government is just working for betterment of this one family only. Fifth, BJP is doing a great ticket distribution where they try to give a consensus candidate to its party workers, so that everybody works for winning collectively. BJP should follow similar approach in upcoming elections in Rajsthan, MP, Chhattisgarh and Delhi.

Congress is in messy situation and I guess if we have general elections for LokSabha this year than congress will be routed everywhere in India. Its leader are failing to understand that India has changed a lot. They should stop thinking that whole India thinks of Nehru Gandhi clan on similar lines of theirs. This is the biggest mistake on Congress part. The sooner they amend it, better it will be for them to remain a national party. Otherwise they will end up like CPM in some remote north east state. Well its Congress's problem and I dont have to worry about it as its helping BJP in a big way.

So what after Karnatak for BJP? There are great chunk of parliament seats in Andhra, Kerala and TamilNadu. Like in all these three states BJP has got a regional outfit in form of JD(S) in Karnatka. We have similar pattern present in Andhra but Chandrababu Naidu is considered as a good person in AP unlike Gowda senior in Karnatak. Like Karnatak we have Congress present in a big way in AP. Situation is ripe for BJP to go for the kill in AP. It should support separate Telangana state movement and I guess Mr Narendran who is prominent member of TRS is having a Sangh background. he should be brought back to BJP and made in charge for movement of separate state of Telangana. BJP will be stronger in border areas of Karnatak and AP and should take this stronger position to bargain a better deal with Chandrababu Naidu. I guess BJP for now should look to strike a good deal with Naidu in AP as he and BJP will be fighting for the same votes in coming elections. TDP should also understand that its not going to lose its minority votes as BJP has won 12 muslim majority seats in Karnatak which is more than any other party there. In fact it should give those seats to BJP as BJP is having better chances of winning them. Well details of this alliance can be worked out.

Keral and Tamil Nadu will have some effect of this win in BJP's favor as BJP has put a good show in Banguluru, which is near to Tamil Nadu border. In Tamilnadu for the time being BJP should have a deal with Jayalalita as they have bigger enemy in Karunanidhi. Congress is no where in TamilNadu as it doesnt have any ideology for which people can vote for it. In Keral, BJP should try to eat into Congress vote as people who are voting for communists, vote for a ideology and its difficult to change their hearts. BJP's win in Karnatak will give boost to its chances in bordering areas of other three states. BJP should focus on those districts adjacent to Karnatak to make inroads their. They should cultivate a great regional leader like they have Shri Yedurappa in Karnatak. The day is not far when all states south of Vindhya will turn saffron. That day will be a great cause for celebration for many patriotic indians like me.

Another outcome of this election is all exit polls except surprisingly to an extent by NDTV, were proven to be wrong. All these exit polls are politically motivated polls which should be banned in middle and prior to election process. It should be allowed only at the end of final voting phase. I dont know how thick is Sagarika Ghosh and Yogendra Yadav's skin is? They were giving such a biased coverage in Gujrat elections and even after licking dirt their, they done the same thing in Karnatak. These jobless sephologists, anti national journalists and politically motivated channels should be given atleast some punishment for propagating falsehood. Like recently court has given punishment to CNBC TV18 financial analyst for propagating false information on TV. That analyst was recommending some share to viewer while he was selling the same on the same time. It will be a good example for these motivated TV personalities.

People have trusted BJP and BJP should respond to their trust. It should give them a government which work for welfare for its all citizens. BJP should not become mirror image of Congress. It should always keep a check on itself and try to resolve issue which concern common masses like terrorism, corruption and price rice. It should show how much difference it can create in people's life and make this century an Indian one. Till than I will be celebrating intelligence of Indian voters who are now exercising their democratic right very sensibly.
May this great work of Indian voters will continue to surprise anti national forces. May God direct our intellect in right direction.

Ulta Pulta Alliance or Un Provoked Assasins Somehow Completed Four Disasterous Years of Power in India: What Are The Lessons For Common Masses?

2008-05-22T16:40:00.008-05:00

Poor and powerless [Bold and Beautiful :)] MMS declared today at the big food wasting get together that now its the time for tightening the belt and inflation and terror are two main challenges for Sonia Maino controlled government. Dr MMS I would like to ask what you would be able to achieve by tightening the belts now? or why it took you over four years to even acknowledge that terrorism is "one" of the main challenges for you today? Now you have identified the challenges but how you are going to solve this big mystery of terror and high inflation? Well even in last year of your, no no sorry ( I said sorry because these days if you are writing something against Sonia Maino than you may get arrested :) and i didnt wanted to give Sonia Maino another chance blast powerless Dr MMS ) Sonia Maino's government if you able to achieve something by tightening your belt than I am wondering why you had that belt loose for all these four years?

Dr MMS stop playing with words. You dont have anything in your hand for tightening or loosing. 95 % of your government is controlled by Sonia Maino and another 5% by leftist. Hmmmm well I should increase the share of traitor communists to somewhat more as sometimes it seems that its their government. Well that % figure is open for all to decide so anyone can have his/her call on that.

You came to power by crying for "Aam Admi" but I really wonder who that "Aam Admi" is? Since Sonia Maino's government seems to be working for no one in India except Gandhi family, so Sonia, Rahul and Priyanka and her children are the only "Aam Admi" in India today? Because I can see that none of your policies have benefited anyone in India. Sonia's government was just busy in preparing appeasement reports for minority votes, diving people on caste lines by reservations, sanctifying corruption for the powerful, busy in defending Ottavio Quattorochi, just clinching to power by compromising with left even at the cost of national honour, allocating national resources on communal lines, saving face in oil for food scam in Iraq, misusing puppet governors for grabbing power in opposition ruled states, naming every government scheme after Rajiv or Indira Gandhi, bringing misfortune to common masses by inflated food prices and other commodities, actively punishing honest people like Dr Venugopal for some stupid ego satisfaction, putting whole nation at risk by not punishing convicted terrorists, increasing home loan rate for middle class, busy in abusing Narendra Modi and toppling Mayawati, busy in destruction of Ram Setu and appeasing left by denying existance of Bhagwan Shri Raam, awarding Maqbul Fida Hussain and hounding Taslima Nasreen like an animal.

I guess this list can go on and one and on.. I am 29 years old now, I am telling you my age as I havent seen any other government working with some what matured mind. I am actively watching performance of this government on various fronts and I can safely say that this government is a disaster. We are in such a crucial moment of history where whole world is watching India so closely and getting new inspiration from its few honest citizens like Ratan Tata, if any other government was their it would have focused more on enhancing India's stature on internal level and increasing quality of life for common masses. But this Congress party cant shrug off its past. The only good thing a congress government in past did was liberalizing India's economy but I must remind you that it was Shri Narsimha Rao who was the prime minister and this Italian lady was not on the scene.

Common Indians specially voters should understand value of their vote and cast it for betterment of the whole nation by removing this corrupt and non performing government who has completely surrendered to China, in next general elections. Dont give keys of your fate to these bunch of corrupt thugs. This is the golden time for India and we need a strong government which can take care of India's interest domestically and internationally. Arise and awake Indians and take matter in your hand. May God direct our intellect in right direction.

Democratic Slap Has Got Communists of India RED Faced

2008-05-21T20:48:00.003-05:00

Communists of India, a traitor, double speaking, full of hypocrites group got the real taste of democracy yesterday. People of Nadigram and Singur voted these communists out from panchayat bodies of these red terror stricken towns of West Bengal. This is celebration of democracy and I congratulate fellow Indians of Nandigram and Singur who have shown the rare courage of voting out these red bandits after 30 years of ruling there.

This is just the beginning. As I have written earlier in my blogs even before you heard of booth capturing and political murders in Bihar, the communists of Bengal had perfected this art of muscle power and it was on full display for all to see in every election held there. In these elections also so many people got killed by this red terror killing squad. These bunch of red thugs haven't even spared their own coalition partner RSP leader's home. They burnt his home and RSP leader's niece suffered some 90% burns and died two days ago.

This is what the real face of communists in India and every where. These Red thugs are just bunch of power hungry individuals who live like parasites on people's blood. They are real wolves in sheep's clothing. They talk of human rights every where and kill people, rape women in their own backyard.

People of Nadigram and Singur has shown the power of democracy and people. When you exercise your rights without fear and perform your duty for the nation, you will reap the benefit. I would like to appeal Mamta Banarjee that now she should not oppose the Nano Plant of Tata. She can demand better compensation and I guess Mr Ratan Tata wont have any problem in accommodating justified demands.

I salute people of Nandigram and Singur who despite so many threats and trouble voted out the red terror from their territory. Now its turn of rest of the Bengal to follow the suit.

My Open e-Mail To Sonia Gandhi: On Rahul Vaid's Arrest

2008-05-20T21:42:00.003-05:00

This is the email which I sent to Sonia Gandhi..

Shrimati Sonia GandhiJi,

I hope you are doing fine. I dont know whether this mail will reach you or not.. but still I have to do my duty as an honest citizen of India. There was a recent news of arrest of 22 years old IT professional by name Rahul Vaid under the charge of defaming you. I hope its still democracy in India. I am a taxpayer who pays taxes honestly for betterment of India. All civil servants including you get your salary because of my contribution to tax kitty. So I guess I have right to ask you some questions Sonia Ji..

1) In my India there is not enough police force to tackle everyday crimes and terrorist activities but how come we are wasting our police resources on a charge as stupid as writing something against you that too on internet against some 22 year old educated boy?

2) How come Maqbul Fida Hussain is not booked under the same crime and got arrested for making nude paintings of Hindu Gods and Goddesses. When somebody asks him questions than he is immediately told to be silent as India is democracy and we have freedom of expression here. so why you have two standards which distinguish between a common indian and some known painter. Is Rahul not human enough?

3) When you all politicians make so much rowdy show in parliament and even fight among yourself with mikes, chairs, files and become abusive and no charges are pressed against anyone of you than how come a you are framing a 22 year old for writing something against you because he doesnt like you?

4) You said that Narendra Modi is Maut Ka Saudagar so openly in front of all than dont you think that someone from Narendra Modi's side should file a defamanation suit against you for saying such a derogatory word to a political adversary?

5) Recently Karunanidhi and Buddhadeb Bhattacharya said so many derogatory remarks again Lord Shri Raam and every one was told to tolerate them as there is democracy in India. Why than that poor boy is arrested for making comments against you? Do you think you are above Shri Ram?

6) Raj Tahckrey said so many derogatory things about North Indians but your Congress Govt in Maharashtra didnt acted against him in time. Nobody filed a defamation lawsuit against him? Why these double standards for common and not so common people?

There are many more things and I can go on.. I just want you to respect freedom of speech for all Indians and withdraw charges against that 22 year old boy. I am not a fan of you as I personally think Congress is responsible for many evils present in India today. Your party has ruled India for 54 years out of 60 and still havent been able to provide good education and basic things like water and electricity to whole common masses of India. I think I have right to disagree with you and criticize you and your party's action if I found it wrong in my opinion. I guess thats what democracy is all about.

I hope you understand what I am trying to convey here. Please withdraw charges against that young boy, you have many more important things to handle.

अन्दर सब कुछ बीखर रहा है !
मेरे मन की इस हालत को,
कोई क्यों नहीं समझ रहा है ?
ख्वाब सुहाने दीखाके मुझको ,
छोड़ गया गहरी नींद मे शायद !
आँख खुल गई फीर भी दील क्यों
दीदार को उसके तरस रहा है !!
छूकर तो देखता कभी वो,
अहसास उसे फीर होता शायद !
जमी हुयी इस बर्फ के नीचे ,
एक अंगारा दहक रहा है !!
जाना ही था छोड़ के उसको ,
मैंने ग़लत समझा था शायद !
उसकी यादों की प्यासी जमीं पे ,
आंखों का सावन बरस रहा है !!
आहट कहीं से कोई आए ,
लगता है वो आया शायद !
ख्वाबों के इस उजड़े चमन मे ,
अरमानों का फूल महक रहा है !!
आंखों से वो दूर है लेकीन ,
दील मे बसा है अब भी शायद !
उसकी धड़कन बन जाने को ही,

So Called OBCs Dont Deserve Reservations In Education And Jobs

2008-05-16T17:11:00.006-05:00

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/India/UPSC_exam_Chennai_medico_tops_list/articleshow/3047180.cms

I found it really hard to believe that why so called OBCs need illegal benefit of reservation. Just go through the above link and see for yourself that out of 734 candidates selected in UPSC examination this year 286 are from General Category and 266 are from so called OBCs.

As I have already written so many times in my other blogs on reservation that there is no need for making casts as sole criteria for reservations in jobs and education. It may help STs but other than them its just serving purpose of the vote bank.

OBCs are well off to take care of themselves like general category. I know that there are poor among so called OBCs and if somebody can do a survey than I wont be surprised to hear that there are almost same number poor in so called General Category.

I fail to understand on what basis Ambumani Ramdas, PC Chidambaram, Lalu and Mulayam Yadav call themselves backwards? Something really wrong is going on here. This mindless reservation solely on basis of so called upper and lower cast has to stop. This is stupidity and mediocracy which we are propagating here.

This reservation policy is not giving any benefit to real needy but the cream who is already enjoying freebies is taking clear advantage. This non sense has to stop. Arise and awake Indians.

Find That Mad Dog Before It Bites You..

2008-05-16T15:03:00.001-05:00

Terrorism, by now, every Indian knows what it is all about, since we are the worst sufferers along with Israel of this phenomenon.

We have lost our countless citizens, lots of soldiers and two Prime Ministers and billions of dollars to this philosophy of hate. Terrorism is very different from any regular crime or riots since its always based on a particular ideology. This ideology is based on philosophy of two separate groups, one is the so called oppressor and second is self assumed oppressed. It's a continuous cycle in which the oppressed is often funded by enemy countries, which feed them with all means to carry out their inhuman acts in name of religion, race or political oppression.

Before WW-2 we have seen lots of freedom struggles, which were against the colonial rulers all over the world. But these colonial rulers prominently English, have left deep scars on all nations’ soul which they have ruled in past. Many terrorist activities that you see today are because of these scars which refuse to heal.

The undeclared war going on between India and Pakistan is an outcome of British divide and rule policy, where they sow the seeds of deep division in citizen's mind. Promoting false superiority complex in communities on basis of castes, colour and religion and keeping them divided so that they can never pose a united threat to their rule.

And its sad to say that they have been succeeded in this. For this success we are paying with the blood of innocents till now.

Israel-Arab conflict is also a gift of Britain to the world, when British started leaving countries they have occupied after World War 2; they started dividing them on the basis of religion and race. Almost all countries under British rule saw division and this division wasn't most of the times for good. I think British took some maps and just drew some vertical and horizontal lines without keeping the cultural and tribal aspects in mind.

They never thought what will be the outcome of these actions. All the countries are still fighting with each other over something or other. Why British did it just before they were leaving still wonders me a lot. So the past was in hands of British but present is in our hands and if we keep crying for the past we are for sure going to miss the present and subsequently future. So its better to start worrying about present and have a foundation for good future.

Terrorism and corruption are become biggest problems which Indians are facing today. They are the only two road blocks in India's path to success and reclaim its past glory. They are the root causes since because of corruption we are having problems like lack of primary education, infrastructure, lack of all civic facilities, deforestation, power shortage and all other problems except security threats.

They are all related to corruption since because of that only all the money which is allotted to these things just goes in vain. This problem can only be tackle by good public support and awareness. If all Indians decide that they will not pay bribe to get any of their work done in RTOs and other govt departments, it can be curbed to a great extent.

The corruption in govt employees can be controlled by tough laws and fast track courts to deal specifically to corruption related issues. One most important thing, will be introduction of moral teachings at higher educational level. This moral corruption of India is the root cause where conscious doesn't feel the guilt of taking bribe to do the job.

The definition of honesty and dishonesty has got changed over the years. Now, a dishonest person is the one who even after taking money doesn't do your job. And honest person has become an endangered species, about whom you are just going to listen in stories after few more years. This moral corruption has to be eradicated if we have to achieve developed India by 2020.

Second is terrorism. Terrorism in India as we all know is basically funded by Pakistan.

Terrorists are not sparing anyone, they are attacking temples, educational institutions, trains, crowded market places or any thing by which they can show that they have capability to bleed India, if not cut it in one go. They just want maximum damage to be done and for this they are crossing all the limits of humanity.

All the terrorism in India has its main source in Pakistan. So in my view if we want to tackle terrorism, the root cause has to be fought, we have to follow a bottom up approach to solve this problem. By this approach I mean to say that we have to cut the source of funding and training which are basically in Pakistan.

We know for sure that Pakistan voluntarily won't give them up. We have to pressurize Pakistan to do this. This can be done in various ways. The best comes in my mind is to give Pakistan taste of its own medicine. We have to wage a low intensity war in Pakistan like they are doing in Kashmir. All four major states of Pakistan are having trouble with each other.

Pakistani military and administrative services are full of people from Pakistani Punjab. Other 3 portions of Pakistan don't like this phenomenon as Pakistani Punjab is becoming prosperous at the cost of other three states especially Baluchistan and Sindh. I haven't included NWFP as this portion doesn't have much to offer.

As we have experienced from Bangladesh and other countries religion only can't be basis of a nation. There are cultural, economical and other political factors to be considered while building up a nation. As in case of India, we are becoming more dependable on each other economically, so by every day the north south east west divide is becoming thinner.

This increase of interdependency and people's movement has given India stability and will of a nation. There are other issues to be resolved like language but those are becoming secondary as English is taking prominent position in business and official communication. Aryan invasion theory is also proven to be false so the great Aryan Dravidian divide is not present at bigger scale and after sometime with more evidence this divide will eventually go.

But Pakistan's case is different as you rarely see a democracy there. Democracy gives voices to citizens which is most important factor of any nation's survival which is as diverse as India. Pakistan is ruled and always going to be ruled by military either direct or through proxies.

I am against all out open war against Pakistan as this is going to hurt India's economy and will destroy all the progress we have made in last 20 years. Since Pakistan also has capability to fire its missiles deep inside India. So the open war is not going to be fought on borers like previous wars. Its going to destroy our homes and cities in India and strengthen Pakistani generals in their control over Pakistan. Damage involved is too much and we should avoid a direct conflict.

Bring some tough laws and enforce them effectively to deal with those who support terrorism. There should be a zero tolerance for those who are involved in anti national acts. The punishment should be so severe that it should act as a lesson for those who are willing to follow this anti national path by citing religious, regional, lingual or caste reasons. Find the mad dog before it bites and kill or at least keep it separated from rest of the population.

Tolerance and compassion for a mad dog is good for sometime. You can take antidotes for few times when it bites you. But when this dog starts biting and infusing poison in your body again and again you are left with no option but to kill the dog. I am not saying all dogs are mad but this dog has given its viruses to other dogs and if you really want to live peacefully along with whole society than you really have to find and kill each and every infected mad dog and should not wait for another dog bite to wake you up. Since a mad dog doesn’t use his brain. Same is the case of a terrorist, since they are involved in inhuman acts so they don’t deserve to have any human rights. Remember you are fighting with an ideology of terror and it can be won by similar ideology of collective will of a nation to take on this ideology of hate head on.

This all is going to happen only when we Indians understand our duties for the nation. When we understand that this is our motherland to which we have to serve by all means available. The educated middle class has to come out on voting day to vote instead going for a picnic as on holidays. They have to educate the poor masses and make them understand the correct use of their voting power, so that no single vote would be cast in name of religion, castes and languages and every vote is meant for those who stands for development of India and its all citizens.

I hope that day comes soon so that we can give our next generation proud of getting birth in the Jagat Guru of the world once again. Come together, we all have to work in this direction. We can and we will reclaim India's golden past.

Lets Create An Ideal India

2008-05-09T11:29:00.001-05:00

There are few organizations in India whose work I admire the most for betterment of whole country. My heart fills with joy unbound to see fellow Indians taking active part in such a tremendous all round upliftment of the great mother India. I have always believed in sayings of the great modern sages like Sri Aurbindo, Swami Vivekanand and Maharshi Dayananda Saraswati. That Bharata will regain its past glory. I sometimes cried for not able to do anything for my motherland. I have only one passion and mission in my life I want to see all round development in India where each and every citizen is morally correct and know their duties with their rights, where we can again proclaim that Bharat is a devbhumi. Where the humanity has achieved its highest goal and she can again become the jagat guru to whom every country on earth looks for moral guidance.

I sometimes wondered that how a nation as great as ours has become like this. Where most of the common day life is in corruption till neck? How Bhartiya has become so morally corrupt in their nature and outlook? How we enjoy breaking up traffic rules and discipline in our country and following them in alien lands? How we have become so greedy for wealth and power that we went down to lowest levels to gain it? How sisters and daughters are being murdered for demands of dowry? How some of us have become so mentally corrupt that corruption has become like a non issue? We speak against it until we dont gain from it and make hue and cry if someone else has got more share of the pie.

How any work involving any government department can’t be done without paying bribes? How we can say that we worship Ganga and all other rivers as mother and same time polluting them with anything we find? How we say cow is our mother and we leave her on streets to fend for her? There are so many hows like this which needs an answer.

We everyday read Geeta and believe that atma is amar but we have become the one who are so afraid of death that even if a mentally sick girl is being raped in running local train in Mumbai in front of all, no one even protested that.

How we Indians have become so hypocrites in our nature and deeds. But complaining is always not going to help and that’s what I learned that if you want change you have to be pivot of change. Rashtra Jagrati Yagna is one which will require sacrifice from all of us.

I feel there is burning desire in all of us to do a lot for the motherland. Young are everyone’s hope. India is a young nation with 55% of population is under 35 and this is a great asset. This is the mass which is without any prejudice and past baggage. We need to channel this mass in right direction. We need to educate them about their heritage. We need to involve them in the political process so that elections are not decided by the voting of the poor ignorant mass who doesn’t know how to vote for their own wellbeing.

There is a lot to do and I hope organizations like RSS and Bharat Uday Mission will become launching pad of my desire to dedicate whole life for this great cause. May Ishwar be our guide for this noble cause. He is alone who sees all, listens all and cares for all.

Satyamev Jayate: Dr VenuGopal I Salute You

2008-05-08T17:06:00.003-05:00

Our unhealthy health minister Ambumani Ramdas got a nice judicial treatment by Supreme Court today. I liked this nice line by BJP spokesperson Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi. This line said a lot about the drama which was going on for past one year for autonomy of one of the most respected institutes of India: AIIMS. The main conspirator, actor, director and script writer of this drama was Dr Ambumani Ramdas of PMK party in TamilNadu. Who to his credit has only one thing that he belongs to some so called backward caste and reaping the benefit of that same low caste even after acquiring so much properties and medical colleges in Tamilnadu and I don’t know how long he will remain the backward. Well what else you can expect from a corrupt Indian politician except to bend and change rules for their selfish narrow interests.

When he was inducted in cabinet by poor MMS he asked for health ministry as he is having many medical colleges and lots of relatives in medical field that can get benefit of him being a health minister. Instead of looking into issues of malnutrition, infant mortality rate, universal health care, good and affordable health care for poor in India, he concentrated more on being in headline for stupid reasons like making statement against smoking and drinking of actors on cinema. He is thinking that whole of India is crazy about their film stars like some people in TamilNadu. Who will do anything their film stars do on the screen. I guess majority of the smokers and poor in India don’t start smoking out of their choice and seeing film stars. The poor population starts smoking because they don’t have any other thing to eat and entertain themselves. So smoking gives them a little stress relief at lower cost in form of Beedi. Majority in college starts smoking for fun and then get habitual to it. I have seen this in case of many of my friends and colleagues. Smoking by actors on film may be a inspiration for some people but I have never came across a person who says that he started smoking or drinking because he has seen some actor doing that. Do you guys really think that banning liquor advertisement on TV will anyway stop people from drinking and more importantly should a health minister involve himself in such a thing where he has many more important issues to attend?

I am not glorifying smoking and drinking and I know and very well understand that excessive liquor consumption by a family member leads to devastating results. But the path adopted by health minister is not the proper way to address that. He is just doing it to be in news because he doesn’t have anything other to show. Ramdas attacked Dr Venugopal because he wasn’t “cooperating” with him in granting favors to Ramdas’s relatives. When he saw that he cant dislodge an honest person from doing his job, he adopted the similar path like his corrupt ilk to get the law passed by bunch of thugs to lower the retirement age to 65 for AIIMS director. This is another episode where you can clearly see the weakness of the weakest prime minister of India Dr MMS. Dr MMS is educated enough with foreign degrees to understand the game plans of his ilk. But he, like many other instances, chose to remain silent and became a party in crime.

Dr Venugopal is world respected cardiologist, who performed first heart transplant in India. When many talented people were leaving India for sake of opportunities and better future abroad, few highly talented people like Dr Venugopal chose to stay in India and give their services to motherland. I would like to ask why a Lakshmi Niwas Mittal , a Hargovinda Khurana, a Chandrashekhar Subramaniam has to leave India to create their name? Answer is insult of that talent by bunch of corrupt thug politicians. They have not tried to created a working culture where merit and only merit would have been the criteria for someone’s job but instead they promoted culture of sycophancy which resulted in reward for few family members and disgust for the whole general public. Ramdas would have got away with all his stupidity if he was doing it in 70s or 80s. Today’s India is much different and I guess everyone can feel this except these corrupt thugs. Who doesn’t know any boundary while taking revenge for their stupid ego. These politicians were supposed to be servant of public but in India we have a majority which makes public to serve their interest. That’s why some caste based party like PMK is enjoying so much clout that poor MMS isnt able to do anything.

Although lower judiciary in India is neck deep in corruption but Supreme Court and High Courts of India still have some honest judges left, those who don’t fear anything and give verdicts solely on basis of solid arguments. I must take name of Justice Jagmohan Lal Sinha who showed rare courage and honesty and disqualified all powerful Indira Gandhi from her election from RaiBareli for using corrupt means. It was the courage of a single honest Indian which was responsible for change in long congress rule of India after independence. No body today remembers all those judges who were serving ruling party’s interest but everyone remembers one true honest judge of high court of Allahabad who just did his job properly. Is it too much to ask from civil servants to do their job properly? I guess the word proper had lost its meaning in India but now you see the nano revolution everywhere. Just one honest civil servant K J Rao gave Bihar its fairest assembly election of last 20 years. It was the power of a single honest person which stood against all the corruption and crime and gave people what they actually have as fundamental right i.e. the right to vote freely on their will. That power unseated one of the most corrupt Indian politician Lalu Yadav and ended his jungle raj in Bihar.

A single honest powerful person can do miracles just the way you see it in Ratan Tata, KJ Rao, Dr Venugopal, Narendra Modi and Swami Vivekananda. A honest person has got nothing to fear. They know they have power of truth behind them. They know they have got nothing to lose. How long you can keep sun from rising with your dark sheets? A temporary night of darkness may keep sun away from reaching to people but in the end when it shines with all its brilliance then darkness will have no place anywhere. India has produced a mind like Nachiket who went to the door of the God of Death “Yama” for solution of his doubts. When Yama saw sincerity in Nachiket’s questions, he told him the secrets of death. You can read it in the form of “Prashnopanishad”. This is what our culture is all about. This culture creates a free and honest mind which can question even all powerful death.

I salute Dr VenuGopal because he stood for the truth, he stood up for the fight against corrupt means which just wants to serve its narrow interest in form of Ramdas. For centuries we have know that its “Satyamev Jayate (it’s the Truth alone which wins)” and incidents like this reinforces my belief in that. I have done my mistakes in past. I am not a saint but incidents like this help me in becoming a better human being. The free, honest and fearless minds are all we need for taking India to its rightful place on face of earth. This is the time again for the birth of Nachiket in every home. Lets give that education to ours and future generations. Lets try to stand up for the cause of nation building. Lets come together and say enough is enough and now its time for resurgent India. Lets do our jobs properly and contribute to the greater cause of nation building. Lets try to be on the side of oppressed and give the voice to those who doesn’t have any means. Lets not violate the rules of traffic and try to get away by paying bribes. Lets stop corruption by not paying any bribe for vehicle license and passports. Lets start a nano revolution from our homes and make is so big that all wicked and selfish people fear to even come out.

This darkness of past many years has taken us to unimaginable filths where India got compared to everything worst in the world. Believe and know that you the inheritors of the legacy of Nachiket and Vivekanand. Come together oh Bhartiya for the cause of nation building. Let us stop feeding the useless animals like Ramdas. Let us celebrate this day for the victory of truth like we do in Dashahara. Lets say with pride again that I am an Indian. I am an Indian… Join the celebration with me in celebrating this new resurgent India.. May God direct our intellect in right direction.

ManMohan Singh (MMS) Lost His Only Quality Which I Liked About Him i.e. Honesty

2008-04-30T16:44:00.001-05:00

Poor MMS what have you done,
You made fool of everyone.

I borrowed these lines from famous 60s song by The Beetles. I knew that MMS is weakest prime minister in history of independent India but I still thought that this poor fellow is honest among all the dirt and corrupts who surrounds him. But TR Balu episode opened my eyes about him. Here even Sonia Maino is not involved like in the case of Quattrochi. In Quattrochi case I have given him the benefit of doubt because he is the poor fellow who is guarding the PM chair for the crowned prince. He is just carrying out orders of Sonia Maino and those who know me know that Sonia Maino is not in my good books for various reasons which I already discussed in various other blogs.

Poor MMS episode has shifted the power of prime minister’s office to some Italian Mafia’s home. All ministers in his cabinet openly say that Rahul baba should be the prime minister. MMS is taking care of property of Rahul Baba like some bonded labor working on rich land lords land in his absence. Its like infamous Lalu Rabadi episode where Lalu made his 4th standard pass wife the chief minister of Bihar in his absence. In this case our MMS is some PhD from Oxford University, so you can expect some difference between him and Rabadi Devi.

With this TR Balu episode the corruption and nepotism is been granted sanction from highest authority of power in India. I can safely guess that in majority of the cases that has been going on through years but not so openly. Even if some minister was getting caught for doing corrupt practices, he was immediately removed to save the face in front of the public. This is for the first time that even after having so many open proofs against a minister and by his own admission, the prime minister is taking his side and saying he hasn’t done anything wrong. Well MMS I would like to ask you what you consider bad enough to be classified as wrong.

On the basis of similar theory as our recently corrupt MMS is propounding now we can say that if a father, who is working in government service takes bribe in the name of his son’s or daughter’s well being is also not doing any wrong. A traffic police man who is not doing his job by enforcing law and letting off the violators by having some bribe in name of his children is also not wrong. A judge who after taking bribe in name of his children for some wrong judgment delivers verdict in favor of the offender and criminal is also not wrong. A public servant after taking bribe in name of his children for giving contract of construction of a bridge to some corrupt contractor is also not wrong. This list can go on and on. So if everybody with kids can do some corruption by this new MMS rule then only people without kids cant do corruption but if they have some people to take care of like their parents they should be allowed to do some corruption. I would like to appeal MMS to amend his newly created rule for people who have dependants. So it will leave us with children under age of 16 who cant do any corruption but everyone else is allowed to do it.

I know he is not the highest authority but still the Prime Minister’s office is considered as that. The highest authority of power that is our Super PM, Italian lady has already shown that she can do anything to save Quattrochi from Indian Law authorities. So I don’t want to talk about her. But MMS was seen by many educated Indians as the one who is just weak but not corrupt. He has proven everybody wrong by sending 8 letters to petroleum ministry for asking favors for companies run by TR Balu’s son. Is this kind of India we all want? Is this kind of India all great patriots have given their life? That’s why I came to the conclusion that Congress party is root of all evils in India, it’s the cradle of corruption in India. This party feed corruption and sycophancy from its highest authority. Wake up Indians, wake up before its too late for doing right things. See the real face of this congress led govt which is a failure on all fronts.

They are some bunch of corrupts who don’t think about common good of masses. They cant think for common masses because they themselves are not common. They all belong to some wealthy families and havent known what the hungry stomach feels like. They don’t know when you don’t get the clean drinking water because they are drinking packaged Bisleri water. They don’t know when common Indians on street don’t have anything to cover him up in cold nights because they have turned on their heaters. They live on us honest taxpayers money like parasites and favor their families over everything. This congress culture of sycophancy is not allowing honest people to join politics in India as they feel its of no use to dirty your hands. You have to be a criminal or a history sheeted person to join the politics in India. Indian voters havent been given right choices. If persons who win elections because of their qualities and not some caste and religion joined the assemblies and parliament of India, we all would have been living in a heaven.

Sadly this is not the case that’s why we Indians have to be pivot of that change where this type of corruption from its highest authority shouldn’t be tolerated. Wake up, wake up before its too late.. May God direct our intellect in right direction.

Who Would Be The Best Prime Minister For Resurgent India?

2008-04-28T14:24:00.005-05:00

I know there are about 100 million answers for this question. Why 100 million? Because I think that as of now these many are the number of citizens in India, who actually thinks about candidate for Prime Minister's post, before casting their vote for the LokSabha election. There are about 670 million voters in India. In majority of the general elections the voting percentage was around 60%. So the actual number of people who are voting comes down to approximately 400 million. My guess is out of this 400 millions, majority (approximately 75%) of the voting is done on the basis of caste, creed, regional and religious lines. It leaves us with 25% or 100 million of voters, who actually vote for keeping country's development and its long term needs in mind. These voters vote for different parties as per their preferences.

This figure just shows how much diversity we have in India in terms of opinions. So you can understand how difficult it is for anyone to suggest name for the prime minister's post of India. Well I also hold that dream near to my heart. But it's a dream and you can have anything that you covet, in your dreams.

In my view presently, there are really few candidates who have the caliber of taking this responsibility of "serving" people of India in meaningful ways. India is really waiting on threshold for becoming a major player in world once again. So the person who is going to take up this job must capable of tackling domestic and international situations pretty well.

The major problems that we have in India now are corruption of government employees and law enforcement agencies, criminalization of politics, non availability of good primary education for all citizens, non availability of basic infrastructure like roads, electricity and clean drinking water to majority, universal healthcare, lack of morality in ordinary citizens, unemployment, regionalism, terrorism in its all forms, social evils like castism and killing of female feticide, communal violence, pollution. Major challenges that any Indian prime minister has to face on international level are energy security for a billion plus population, rise and rise of China, relations with neighboring countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka, keeping India attractive for FDI in lots of sectors, permanent membership of the security council of UN just to name a few.

You can see that this is a huge responsibility. The above said responsibilities require uncompromising honesty and strength of character to deliver. In my view everything delivers from top to bottom as the old saying in Sanskrit goes " Yatha Raja Tatha Praja" means the way of the king is the way of the common citizen. If the person at top promotes wrong things then the common citizen also will not care about the wrongs on fellow countrymen.

The person who is going to be entrusted with this job has to perform or the country will perish as I see China as the biggest danger for India. Pakistan with its new government in place is less likely to hurt India's interest in a big way. Chinese economy right now is three times of India's economy on GDP basis. China and India have same needs and same problems to address on international level. The communists in China are practical and patriots who are doing their best to serve their country's interest. This is an unheard of communist anywhere else in the world. Just have a look at our own communists and you will find that likes of Karats, Buddhadebs, Yechuris and Bardhans are most unpractical and biggest traitors as of today in India. They talk as if they live and eat in China and create trouble in progress of their own country's interest. Anyways that's altogether a different topic of debate.

So as per me the few candidates who can take up this job are Mayawati, Narendra Modi , Jayalalita, Rahul or Priyanka Gandhi, Chandrababu Naidu and Buddhadeb Bhattacharya, P A Sangma and Omar Abdullah. The likes of Lalus, Sharad Pawars, Mulayams and Devegowdas are so corrupt to the neck and narrow minded that its blasphemous to even think about them as candidates for prime minister's post. I will discuss each one in detail and then select my preference for this post. I know that I am nobody but its still democracy in India (Congress Party leaders want it to be a family run business like you can see with definition of Yuvraj and Rajmata) and I have my rights to voice my opinion. I would first go for Buddhadeb and see how this Marxist-Capitalist veteran fares on the criteria.

I don't like communists as I see them as biggest hypocrites and danger to national unity. Communists trace their ideology to something outside national boundaries and this type of political thoughts can never be in any country's interest. People of Nepal will soon realize what mistake they have made by giving majority to Marxists. People of West Bengal are realizing it now since they are seeing with their own eyes that 30 years of Marxist rule haven't turned their state into a paradise in India. I can reject Buddhadeb simply for this reason because communists feed dogma to the masses and keep control of power in very few hands. They destroy national fabric from inside and are known to be dangerous virus for any nation's wellbeing. Buddhadeb failed on both the crucial tests of human rights and secularism. His government forced Taslima Nasreen to leave India like an animal. His government actively supported killing of men, women and children of NandiGram in West Bengal. He made worst statement of paying back his fellow countrymen in their own coin. It was like as if people of NandiGram are imperialist US citizens and this communist has to destroy them all. His party actively supports China's interest over India and that's why he and his party cant do any good for India. Communists are worst internal enemies of India. The sooner Indians get rid of this cancer called communists the better its for India.

Now I will analyze chances of Omar Abdullah, ChandraBabu Naidu and Jayalalita. I have kept them together as all of them have a similar character. They all represent a regional outfit. Since they represent a regional outfit they try to keep interests of their own state above the national interest. Which is not good for India as a whole but they are good leaders who have some positive attributes to them. Omar Abdullah talked sense when he was made minister in NDA government. I think he understands the situation of Kashmir and India very well. He is young and energetic and he has a great future. Same is the case with Chandra Babu Naidu. He is known as development man and propagated some good schemes when he was chief minister of Andhra Pradesh. Jayalalita with all her flaws of extravagances now keeps national interest in mind. She is not averse to Hindi as a language like her other so called Dravida counterparts. I was reluctant to keep her name in this because of corruption charges against her. But I was surprise that this DMK government is not been able to prove a single charge against her. All these three leaders have to remold themselves as national leaders. This thing can only be done only after they decide to dilute their regional identities a little bit and reach to the whole nation. They have their chances with some big national parties but unless they start thinking on national lines and stop fighting on petty regional issues of language, regional identities and national resources like water, they wont fit the bill of becoming prime ministerial material.

Mr P. A. Sangma can be a good candidate for prime minister's post. He is from worst neglected part of India. As far as I can see his track record he is an honest person. He is in national politics for too long to understand the importance of idea of India. He only lacks one thing which is being a strong orator and charismatic leader, who can capture imagination of masses. I liked when he stood up to say that he wont accept a foreigner as a prime minister of India as he stood up for a principle. I wish him good luck for his future.

Maya is real and its her mayajaal which has given UP its one party government after so many years. Mayawati is strong and ruthless leader but she has a little tendency of self glorification and corruption. I credit her with biggest transformation in India which is of dalit self respect. She doesn't believe in asking for the rights but grabbing it from the jaws of impossibility. Earlier she has too much castiest element to even think about her as candidate for prime minister's post. But now she is showing signs of maturity and beating every party in their own game. She might not have given many things to dalits except some Ambedkar Grams and parks but she has given them the thing which no party except RSS was able to provide i.e. self respect. She is the symbol of self respect for dalits. She is one of them who has snatched their rights from all powerful elements. She is showing signs of political maturity and defending her turf against all odds. I must admit that she is good in managing political equations but I am not too sure about her capabilities in leading new and resurgent India on global level. She doesn't have good economic sense and public policies which affects life of the masses. She is too busy in protecting her life and inauguration of Ambedkar parks and Grams to care about the whole nation. I think she needs more time to focus beyond casts and to think about every citizen of India. Her interests are best with BJP as she and congress are fighting for same thing.

Now its turn of King clan of Nehru and Gandhi. I don't have anything against Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi. They are born Indians and they have every right to be prime minister of India. I would feel a lot of pain if Sonia Maino is chosen for that post as that would be against my self respect as an Indian. I oppose Sonia Maino as there are so many reasons behind it. Please refer to my other blog for the same. Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi have matured over the years. Crowned Prince Rahul Baba is still on tour to discover India where he was born 40 years ago. He is young but doesn't have control on his oratorical skills. I have heard his speeches and I can say that I am not impressed. He seems to be short on new ideas and too much controlled by sycophants to think a little free. He had his chance in these last four years but he is been unable to leave a impression anywhere. He campaigned for Congress in so many state elections and Congress lost all major states to opposition parties. I would have loved to see his reaction on OBC quota in higher educational institutions and other national issues like terrorism and price rise. But he is too busy in toppling Mayawati from UP to think anything else. He has chosen a wrong target in Mayawati. He burnt his fingers with Narendra Modi but it seems never learnt the lesson of being a warrior for lost cause. It would have been better for him to concentrate more in south India as Dalits have seen that Congress and its King clan havent done anything for them in past 50 years except lip service. This king clan is too aristocrat to understand pain of real "Aam Admi". Electronic media is friendly to this king clan and even give coverage to his every small stunt but they don't realize that now majority of Indian public is smart enough to understand difference between fake and real sympathizer.

On the contrary Priyanka Gandhi has a substance to connect to Indian public. She connects well but she is sitting outside these days and coming just to play some character role in this big political drama. Like her illegal jail visit to Nalini of which no records were kept. To bring some sympathy for the crimes their ancestors have committed and got deadly results. I don't know why they harp on Nahru Gandhi legacy even though this clan is responsible for various problems in India. I personally don't like congress and its leaders as this party has destroyed India's national fabric and kept it illiterate for so many years that we are facing all this mess now. Please refer to my earlier blog for this. Anyways in comparison to Rahul Baba Priyanka Gandhi has much more potential. I don't know why she is been kept outside of party's work and Rahul is being projected as leader even though he doesn't have anything credible to show. If this was the case with any other person in India, the media would have made cries ranging from gender equality to women empowerment. Anyways its King Clan's family business and I think both Rahul and Priyanka need more time to think about in which direction they would like to go. Priyanka Gandhi can be a good prime minister candidate after some time but she needs to break herself from that sycophant circle of congress. I wish her good luck.

All the above names till now has one or many flaws which according to me, makes them less suited for the prime minister’s post as of now. But if there is someone in India who, in my point of view, can change fortunes of Indian people like he changed for his home state, I must admit he is Narendra Damodarbhai Modi. He is perfect candidate for the post of prime minister of India. Those who are reading my blogs and those who know me a bit since past, may be knowing that I am a patriot. I wear my patriotism on my sleeves. A patriotic mind instantly strikes a cord with me. I consider myself as an Indian first and then anything else. I don’t belong to any state of India but I feel every nanometer of India as my homeland and sacred place. I have lived my life till now in many states of India. I have not been in southern and north eastern part but I have friends from there and I read a lot to keep a check on those areas. So I can safely say that I know a bit about those places too.
Why this all babbling about me? Well I am just giving you background of the things which I am going to say. After my college I got my job in Gujarat. Its been five years for me over there and I have fallen in love with the city of Baroda. Its small yet cosmopolitan and you can get any luxury of the world there.

I have traveled in other parts of the Gujarat and seen the things first hand. As I have told you that I have been to many states in India but Gujarat beat every other of them fair and square in terms of infrastructure, drinking water, power supply and quality of life. I have seen women walking on street as late as 3 AM in night and that says a lot about secure environment that people enjoy in Gujarat as compare to other states. This effect is largely due to effort of Mr Modi. The way he is handling the Sardar Sarovar and many other hugely successful schemes like Beti Bachao Andolan , Jyoti Gram Yojana, VanBandhu Yojna speaks a lot about the man’s character. He is setting a new standard for good governance and honesty in public life.

Most interesting aspect of his personality was visible in recently concluded Gujarat Assembly election in 2007. It was for the first time anywhere in India a Chief Minister has been voted back to power solely on the basis of his performance for good governance. I keenly watched the outcome and knew that he will win as I know Gujarati people well. I watched with happiness the tight democratic slap people of Gujarat has given to five star activists and unpatriotic foreign funded NGOs. For the first time in India he made people vote for him irrespective of caste, creed and religion. Saurashtra region of Gujarat, of which many idiot analysts were thinking to be a Waterloo for Modi, he overcame all odds and shown that sincerity, honesty and hard work pays in Indian politics. It was the one of the most defining moment in Indian democracy. I was sure about his win but that would be such a big win in all aspects made me walk over the moon. His reelection proves many points about Indian people. They are yearning for a strong leader who can show them the real progress and wont care about casts and religion while voting for such a candidate.

He has not allowed even his siblings to take advantage of his position as a chief minister. I heard his niece saying on a news channel that despite having a B Ed degree she doesn’t have a good job like many other struggling middle class families. Can you believe it that in India there is a Chief Minister who is not allowing his own family to take a little advantage like this. When I heard that I immediately knew that Naredra Modi is the man of the moment. The way he connects himself to the audience in meetings and functions, the way he answers all difficult questions thrown at him, the way he promotes honesty and good governance says a lot about him. He is in public eyes for too long to do any mistake. He is been wrongly demonized by english speaking elite media who doesn’t give a ear to victims of Nandigram, Kahmiri Pandits, North east India and Marxists violence in Kerala.

There is a Shayari which I say quite often to many people. It goes like..
“ Daman Agar Saaf Hai . To Khas Ahatiyat Rakh..
Isse Jara Sa Bhi Daag, Chhupaya Na Jayega..”

It means that if your character is good then you have to really really careful to not to do even a small mistake because even a small black spot is clearly visible on a perfect white sheet. His enemies are waiting for their chance to take the revenge. Narendra Bhai Modi has shown earth to all the enemies till now. I hope that he remains as honest as he is now and promote the good governance like the way he is doing in Gujarat. He is bringing power to the people and doing a lot for them. He has millions of fans including me all around India who see him as the last hope for a turn around for good in India’s future.

You have to be in Gujarat to see the progress of a state under a honest and hard working chief minister. The state of Gujarat can be a role model for other states to emulate in India. Narendra Bhai Modi, you have my vote for the post of prime minister, and I hope that this tribe will go on increasing in India. I have found a real life hero in politics who is setting the bar for politicians so high in India that it would be really difficult for others to keep up with him unless they emulate his honesty and hardworking attitude.

For me Narendra Damodardas Modi is the best bet for prime minister’s post and I hope that he keep his standards high and wont let anybody question his integrity and honesty and continue to deliver good governance to people.

Reservation Of Non Meritorious Candidates: Deeply Flawed Policy to Further Divide India

2008-04-12T08:55:00.006-05:00

The recent news of Supreme Court of India giving its nod to OBC reservation in premier Medical, Engineering and Management Schools is really disappointing for me and many others who feel that its time for resurgent India and our past baggages are only things which are holding us back. Let me be clear I am not supporter of Castism or neither I am against any caste. But this whole issue is so deeply flawed that I am not sure about its effectiveness.

As I have written in my earlier blogs that castes or classes were prevalent part of all ancient societies. I can say by studying our ancient scriptures like Bhagwat Gita and Veda that birth to someone was not the deciding factor of any one's caste. Even Magasthenese, The Greek Ambassador in court of King Chandragupta Maurya writes in his book Indica that there were some Seven castes in India. Lord Shri Krishna clearly says in Gita that birth is not the basis of anyone's caste. Its the balance of Three Guna, Sattva, Rajas and Tamas which decides anyone's caste or class. The higher the portion of Sattva Guna, more chances are that the person will be of Brahman in nature. Again the word Brahmin means one who knows the Brahma or the supreme reality. In that sense anyone can be a Brahmin if he or she has the caliber to achieve so. Right now too Baba Ramdev or Mata Amtrita Anandmayi are the real Brahmins and no one asks about their castes before bowing in front of them.

In every society on earth , in any time past or present, the ruling class is always small in compare to the people being ruled. So in US or in Europe you will see nexus of Politicians, Bureaucrats and big corporations which is ruling class, In Africa its warlords and like wise in India presently its nexus of corrupt politicians, criminals and bureaucrats which is ruling class. This ruling class although small in number, if gets corrupted simultaneously then it spells doom for the nation. In ancient times most of the Kings found their source of power flowing down from the wise men or priest class or Brahmins. If that priest class was getting selected on basis of their knowledge then its good for larger benefit of the common people. But only a good king will choose good advisers or priests. In my view the powerful class always likes the status quo as this benefits them and their families. They oppose change and generally dont allow many people to enter their class as it will make that power or source of wealth getting distributed in some more people and their share will become less.

In the similar fashion majority of the Brahmins, with help of ruling class made this castes mandatory on the basis of birth and it became more rigid as time passed. Its most ugly form was seen in 18th and 19th century, where there were many atrocities done on people on basis of castes. But there have been many atrocities similar to what we had in Europe and US too. I always had the view that a historical wrong cant be made right by another historical wrong. The time which is gone was different and what we have in present is different. I know that none of us ever asks about anyone's caste before going out and making friends with them. Its still there in case of marriage but I dont think that it will stay for long.

Every one should realize that there are many poor among the so called upper castes and I was one of them. I wasnt born with silver spoon and whatever I have now is because my parents made me work hard to study as they saw that it was the only way out. With God's help and some hard work I have achieved what I have now. The only time when I realized that I am a Brahmin by caste was the time when I had to fill forms for engineering colleges after passing 12th standard. I realized that although I had way higher marks in competitive exams than my classmates, they got really good government colleges, free books, calculators, drafters and scholarship. Just because they were of some lower castes they got everything better than me at that time. In all those cases all my classmate's father had the same income as my father did. And with that income my father had to take care of a large family like other so called lower caste families. Many of my classmates were not studying as hard as I did. I failed to understand why I am getting punished for what I havent committed. I consoled myself by thinking that it may be collective Karma of my ancestors. The Indian private sector came to my rescue after my studies and I got a great job from campus. I didnt tried much for govt jobs as seats were really less and all govt of india cared about is caste and nothing else.

I believe in affirmative action for disadvantaged section. But do you all really think that poverty has got anything to do with somebody's caste now? Its altogether a different time we are living in now. The policy which was meant for elevating status by giving someone freebies in education and jobs has just become a source of votes. Its really strange that Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar himself wanted the quota system just for 10 years and you see that even after 18 years the list of backward castes is not decreasing. It keeps on increasing every year. This policy is not serving the most disadvantaged and really creating a much wealthy layer among the backwards and they are the ones who are having the benefit of reservation again and again. Many backward castes like Yadav and Jats were rulers of some part of India. Lord Krishna was himself bought up by this Yadav clan and I really fail to understand how come his caste is among backward one? The most comical thing is to be seen in Tamil Nadu, where the state government is having 70% reservation and everybody wants themselves to be proven as more backwards then others. I mean whats going on.

I think that reservation in its present caste based form is promoting complacency and non hard working attitude in so many people. If you know that you will get a good government job even though you just score some third class marks in exams than why you would like to study and work hard? Is it that hard to understand by all of us?

The real help was needed for dalits which includes all SCs and STs and I dont think they are getting benefited from this policy in large numbers. The actual benefit is siphoned off by OBCs who have different quotas but simultaneously have all the means for getting good education by working hard. OBC families are well off like many general category families and reservation is giving them unfair advantage. We all cry for level playing field in Global forums but in India itself we are not treating all citizens equal. Making caste as sole criteria of reservation in education, jobs and promotions is deeply flawed mistake. We need good scientists and professionals to take India to its rightful place and I dont think that reservation policy in its present form helping it anyway.

Thats why I hate Congress and Nehru Gandhi clan so much. They are responsible for not providing good primary education to Indians. If it was provided and made compulsory for all Indians since independence , I think we wouldnt have been facing many problems as we are facing today in India. If congress wants reservation than it should first reserve Prime Minister's post to Indians and not some Italian Mama.

The solution is affirmative action and not some mindless reservation. I dont know why these political leaders doesn't think of poor among all Indians, why they still want to further divide my motherland on caste lines. The only answer is politics of votes. Its only awakening and mass awakening which can solve this problem. May Go d direct our intellect in right direction.

Rahul Gandhi Rejected The Ministerial Berth In MMS's Cabinet: My Perspective

2008-04-09T17:34:00.003-05:00

The Italian Mama declared that Rahul Gandhi rejected a cabinet ministerial berth which was offered to him by her. This news was meant for portraying Rahul as sincere ordinary Indian, who wants to have his place by merit then to just have it all since he is a Gandhi. On the contrary I think Rahul refused it because he is already a crowned prince under imported Rajmata Sonia Maino. Our poor MMS (ManMohan Singh) always introduces Rahul as future Prime Minister of India or in this case I should say King to all. So guys when you know that you can have the future of a billion plus population by being prime minister today then why you would like to settle for just a ministerial berth. Rahul’s ministry will cause more trouble for poor MMS as then he have to make calls to get NOC from two places before making any decision, first at Sonia Maino’s number and then Rahul Gandhi’s ministry.

I don’t understand why Indian English media is so crazy about whatever these Gandhis do. I don’t know why this media doesn’t ask questions about Priyanka Gandhi to Sonia Maino. I think Priyanka, after seeing that Rahul is now taking more interest in India then his Columbian Girl Friend, quit active politics on advice from Sonia Maino. If the same thing was done by any body else in India, there would have been cries ranging from woman liberation to gender equality by this same media. Well, any ways slavery and benefiting of 60 years of that editorial class is more valuable then truth I guess.

I wonder sometimes who would have been a better leader among divine king clan of Gandhi’s for India, Priyanka or Rahul? Now you all see wherever Rahul baba has campaigned for congress in bigger states till now, it faced an electoral rout or defeat like elections in Gujarat, UP, Uttaranchal and Punjab. Sycophants in congress put that defeat on some imaginary external factors and if there is something good like rolling back of price on certain stuff, or waiving loans of the farmers or any other stuff, then you watch the behavior of these sycophants, they just come short of beating drums and dancing on the streets to claim that its all because of divine Nehru Gandhi Clan.

My thought is if Rahul baba accepted the ministry and failed to do his job there then it would have been a bad start for the King and it would have become clear for common Indians that the Divine King Clan is good for nothing. So thats why the crowned prince wants his experiment with Prime Minister's post so that he can serve India. But how well this divine King Clan know India? The queen is Italian and for prince, situation has gone down to such an extent that at 40 years of age Rahul baba is on tour to discover India as if it was lost somewhere to be discovered again by him. Media is rallying behind him as if modern Buddha is wondering in jungles of Bihar.

An interesting thing about congress party leaders is they show unity in at least in one case, they are ready to work under and lick feet of even an ant as long as it’s a pet of Nehru Gandhi clan. That’s a really big thing as far as congress standards are concerned. I don’t know , how much time it will take Rahul Baba and his Italian Mama to discover and know India, and how long they will make Priyanka Gandhi to sit outside and watch. Well as far as non inclusion of Priyanka in Congress party matters is concerned, I know one person is really happy. Guess who is that happy fellow.. Its our poor MMS. If Priyanka was there in Congress party then poor MMS has to take three NOCs before doing anything. I am happy that poor MMS is happy, I feel good when exploited, and downtrodden and powerless Indian gets the happiness. I want to live as long as it takes to bring the happiness from powerful to majority of the powerless citizens. Till then may god direct our intellect in right direction.

How India Should Deal With World:- PAKISTAN , An Enemy or Our Little Brother Who Needs Our Support

2008-04-06T16:37:00.012-05:00

Hello,

http://www.expressindia.com/news/fullstory.php?newsid=71474
http://www.expressindia.com/news/fullstory.php?newsid=71026

The above links are of my articles which were published in expressindia in the aftermath of bomb blasts in Mumbai's local trains and Srinagar in July 2006. These links and comments made on articles are very relevant for my present blog as I am holding on to certain beliefs related to Pakistan. Till the formation of the new government in Pakistan recently and the events behind it, I was thinking of Pakistan as an enemy to the idea of free India. As history of past 60 years tells me that a happy and prosperous Pakistan can never think of a Happy India. If generals there were weak at certain times they talked peace, only to strike on us when they have gained enough strength for doing so. But present condition is different and keeping that difference in my mind I will try to formulate a policy on how India should deal with its neighbour Pakistan.

I remember the famous quote of AtalJi that as a country we do not have freedom to change our neighbors. As an engineer I know that when we go for creation of a new design we have some constraints and we design our products by keeping those constraints in our mind. Pakistan is going to be our neighbor till the end of the earth and the solution and policy should be made by keeping that in mind. I dont think that at least for coming 50 years there would be a talk of unification of the India with Burma, Bangladesh and Pakistan. But I will not close that option as time is the only thing which will tell us about that. So I would strictly focus on present situation in Pakistan and India for my solution.

The basis of creation of Pakistan, as you all know, was hatred among two major religions of South Asia. That hatred remained the sole support of survival for any politician or Army General of Pakistan until now. Whenever politicians in Pakistan wanted to distract peoples attention from government's failure, they stoked hatred against India. In India its not possible to emulate by any politician and there are few important differences behind that. First, to a major extent we in India are some what peaceful in nature, as peaceful coexistence with differences is part of our civilizational ethos. Second major thing is, in India we have so much divide and internal difference on so many issues that its not possible for any politician to win elections on the basis of hatred against Pakistan. But its easy in Pakistan as majority is Sunni Muslims and they can do anything to destroy Kafirs in India. Pakistan's politicians made really good use of it till now. They told their people that we as Muslims ruled predominantly Hindu India for so long and in future too this thing is possible. They promised their citizens the golden period of Mughal rule, conveniently forgetting that its 21st century and not some 1200 AD. They told their population that start of that golden period is from Kashmir as its the only Muslim majority state and then every other state of India will break off with a little push. Their population too, without even realizing the consequences, supported their misadventures.

The real and only political force of Pakistan was its military. Well it is still relevant and major thing. But its power is not that much stronger after Nawaz and Zardari decided to come together. I think as long as politicians in Pakistan and everywhere else think of their people's benefit first and then anything else, it would be a beginning of a ideal world. But sadly that's not the case so lets see how long these two politicians and sworn enemies of past can keep each others company.

There is a sense of lost pride in Pakistani Army as it lost as many as 4 direct wars with Kafir India, so they thought of creating a Bhasmasur (A Devil who got a boon by Lord Shiva by which he could burn off anybody by keeping his hand on theirs head. That devil got fascinated by beauty of Devi Parvati and thought of using the boon against Shiva himself. Later with help of lord Vishnu, Lord Shiva was able to get rid of Bhasmasur) in the form of terrorists. Only to realize now that terrorists and their bombs/Bullets dont distinguish between an Indian and a Pakistani. They kill all. Pakistani Army Generals, all powerful ISI and to an extent their politicians and citizens thought of bleeding India to death by using terrorists. Terrorists attacked and killed many indiscriminately all over India in form of Lashkar-e-Toiba, Jaish-e-Muhammad, Harkat-Ul-Muzahidin, SIMI, Jamat-i-Islami, Al-Badr, ULFA, Naxalites, NSCN and many like them. Pakistan happily armed them so that they can carry out their nefarious designs. They are still doing it but not with the old intensity. Main reason for this is, the terrorists now, are all busy in using those weapons against Pakistanis and we in India, for the time being hear less of it.

I always had and still have the view that the Pakistan and its citizens should go through what we have gone through in India on daily basis and only then they will be able to understand what they are doing to their fellow human beings. Just see how true my guess was, now if you read any Pakistani news paper it feels like you are reading an Indian one but, of a year ago. I always read Pakistani news paper and thats why I know. You will find many news of terrorists and bomb blasts all over Pakistan. You will find angry reaction of the common citizens as we used to have in India. Now you see since you have got increase in terrorist activities in Pakistan, India is living a larger peaceful life. Terrorists or Bhasmasur have got their new playground in Pakistan and we are off their radar for now. Our home grown terrorist groups dont have that much strength to carry out bigger blasts as the brain behind major ghastly acts came from Pakistan. Its a guilty pleasure and I am happy that there are less frequent bomb blasts and wide spread killings in India due to terrorist activities. Its a practical thought and while dealing with such activities you have to use your brain, not heart.

Earlier I was of the view that we should try to break Pakistan into 4 separate countries by the name of Balochistan, Sindh, NWFP and Pakistani Punjab. They can change the names later to whatever they like, but as of now Pakistan is deeply divided among these four geographical regions. In Pakistan, majority in Army and other government agencies is from Pakistani Punjab. Because of this there is a favorable tilt in allocation of national resources to Pakistani Punjab. Sindh and Punjab fight for waters of Indus river, Balochistan and others fight for natural gas , NWFP is more Pashtun than Pakistani and they are more comfortable with Afganistan. It was an golden opportunity of sort for Indian think tank and the real chance of paying Pakistan in its own coin. We just had to be over there as catalysts for starting the fire and enjoy the sufferings as they enjoy ours. But for a long term thats not a sustainable solution as violence although sometimes necessary is not good in larger human interest. I believe that the continuous violence in Pakistan for past one year has changed mindset of the larger portion of the citizens there and now they also want to just get rid of all the violence and live in peace. I think they have now learned to live contently and scrapped the idea of coming of golden period. As every person on earth would be happy with peaceful present than coming of Golden Future.

I am an Indian and my civilization ethos doesn't allow me to think destruction of my fellow human beings. Now its the right time to solve all the problems with Pakistan. Pakistan has to shed its obsession with Kashmir and destruction of India and adjust to the fact that India has advanced much ahead in economic prosperity. Pakistan should give up its claim on Kashmir and settle the dispute for once and all. Pakistanis should learn from history that terrorism and fanaticism is not going to give them anything and they will lose goodwill of all educated people of India. A terrorist is a terrorist. They are product of hatred and autocracy. They want to have their way always. If they dont get it then they will not hesitate in destroying even those who nurtured them. Thats what happening in Pakistan now. All Pakistanis should understand that for India its not possible to give up Kashmir as its the only Muslims majority state and if it at all goes away then it would be a boost for all secessionist groups by different names. If religion will become a breaking point then there is a danger of every other Muslim majority district to ask for Independence from India.

I think no one in India wants to bully Pakistan. The whole India including RSS has accepted the partition as sad reality. I too think that in present situation Pakistan needs our support like some little brother who went wrong. Right now I dont think that we should see Pakistan as our enemy. But the practical mind says that its the right time to strike and break it up so that they fight among themselves and we remain happily ever after. But heart says that like normal human being Pakistanis now will cut umbilical cord of terrorism and make our south Asia or greater India a peaceful heaven.

So what should be our main policy for Pakistan based on present circumstances? I think we should promote democracy for time being and should keep our eyes open for future opportunity. My optimism for now is based on the fact that ordinary Pakistani has never gone through anything like present circumstances. This situation has helped them in understanding evils of terrorism. As well as its new generation on both sides so that past baggage is not present. I can just hope for the best but with open eyes. We have given it 60 years so lets just wait for 4-5 years more. We should see in that time that if even with changed Pakistani minds its not going anywhere than more steps should be taken for breaking up of Pakistan. As its the way where we can have full Kashmir and peace. I hope the situation doesnt come to a violent solution but if that becomes a necessity then we should not hesitate to follow the rightful path for ours good. I hope the better sense prevails. May God direct our intelligence in right direction.

Kaveri Water dispute: Root Problem Is Linguistic States, Solution Is National Perspective

2008-04-03T12:37:00.003-05:00

I admit it clearly that I am no expert or authority in river water sharing between states.But I do study in depth about politics and my analysis of this situation between Karnatka and TamilNadu is going to be scrutinized under that light. My analysis will always have a national perspective as I consider myself as an Indian first and then anything else comes in the picture. So when two states or communities in India fight among themselves then I feel like it’s a fight between my body parts. The problem is not every Indian feels like it so even a small mole becomes a mountain of problems and it takes a little time for becoming a mega disaster.

In majority of situations, consequence of any policy statement or a change follows a peculiar order of interests. First the Individual sees how much benefit its giving to him, then he thinks about his family, then community,then village or town, then district, then state and then finally nation. In any ideal society the thinking pattern of all its citizens should be reverse in order. But like every where else ideal situations always remain ideal and the real or practical situation changes dramatically. In my view how well that reverse ideal order of priority of interests is managed in a country that determines the level of happiness and well being of the nation. When every nation on earth will think like that then they will come together and see the perspective from universal point of view so until that happens I should just focus on keeping my home in order. My home is every nanometer of India and I will see and analyze things from that point of view.

Sometimes it comes in my mind that it might have been a big mistake when our leaders decided to create Indian states on linguistic basis. I think our leaders like many other decisions got this too on wrong side. The states should have been created with mix population so that any political leader of the state would have to depend upon the support of all citizens irrespective of caste, community and religion. At least that would have helped in reducing fight over resources of two states to remain a legal tussle than to become a fight between two linguistic groups like you are seeing now in Kannada and Tamil people. Non linguistic states would have helped in reducing so many problems like creation of regional and caste or community based political parties who just promote their narrow selfish interests and don’t care much about the national interests.

These regional and caste based parties mobilize innocent citizens and fill their mind with all the poison. This situation is there to be seen by all of us and prevails everywhere in India. The recent North Indian vs Marathi manoos problem by Raj Thackrey, to problems in North East India, to fight between Haryana, Punjab and Delhi for waters of Yamuna, to fight between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu for waters of Kaveri and many other water disputes arise for the same reasons. All these disputes although over resources become a fight between one community with other and takes a ugly turn. This breeds resentment and make a ordinary innocent citizen a hate mongering soldier of a certain bogus narrow self interest. Creation of linguistic state is another blunder in long list of blunders done by Jawaharlal Nehru. I already discussed his major blunders in separate blog as this blog is for discussion of something else.

The positive point for creation of linguistic states was to give voice to all communities so that they don’t feel alienated and know they have a voice in country’s affairs. But just look around and see for yourself that on contrary, this is affecting the country’s growth and working for strengthening of regional identities, which is harmful from national perspective. It might have been done for keeping noble cause of giving voice to the people in mind but as its clear now that thinking wasn’t that foreseeing and we are in a mess.

I think it wont be possible to change the situation related to linguistic states as it requires a complete overhaul and revolution of a kind. We have to find a different way for solving this problem but that way will only work when we keep country’s interest on the top of our list. This is election time in Karnataka and present Tamil Nadu government too doesn’t have to show anything remarkable to its people. As we have seen many times people in power always make use of emotive issues at this time. So you will see much crying on Ram Setu and Kaveri waters. These types of issues take ordinary citizen’s mind away from actual performance of the government and make them vote on stupid non issues. Ordinary citizens realize that thing much later and by that time everything gets over. Those who should have been judged on the performance get judged on emotions. People may say it was the same case with Narendra Modi, but he never compromised on national interests and gave Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan their due in Sardar Sarovar Project. Modi no doubt won his first election on emotive issue but he won second one on his performance and honesty. That’s why he has millions of admirers around India.

Well those who are reading might be wondering now where the solution of Kaveri water dispute is. Why I am talking about all the issue and not dealing with this directly. I just wanted to give you a background so that you all can understand my solution as it involves scarifies for the national cause. This dispute can only be solved when people of those two states realize that its their own family member on other side who is using that water for quenching his thirst or using it in farms. I know this is too idealistic but this is the only way to solve this kind of problems for the longer run. To solve all these kinds of problems all the rivers in India should be nationalized and an neutral committee comprising of experts in water resource, major political leaders of the states in dispute and central political authority should be formed. The decision of that committee should become binding to all the parties involved in dispute. Again this solution involves individual honesty and national perspective and in my view both of these are lacking in India today. The only way out of these types of situations is the realization by all Indians about their responsibility as citizens. It all comes down to awakening of Indians in the end. I hope and pray to god that awakening should come earlier than my optimistic hope dies. The root cause for the problem of sharing of water and other resources is linguistic states but their solution lies in larger national perspective. River Kaveri like any mother is treating her all children equal with its flow but its her children who are not treating each other equal and right. I hope that better sense prevails.. May almighty direct our intellect in right direction.
