ऐसे शिष्टाचार का मुझसे उम्मीद न रक्खे तो बेहतर

बहुत दिन हो गए ब्लॉग नहीं लिखा| समय नहीं मिलता ... मिलता ही नहीं! क्या करें ... (खैर) तो सुनिए —

इंसान जैसा होता है, वैसा दीखता नहीं| इसमें उस बेचारे की कोई गलती नहीं ... दुनिया अगर वैसी होती जैसा बापू चाहते थे (वे बहुत कुछ चाहते थे ...) तो शायद वह सोचता भी| जीने के नए ढंग ने बहुत कुछ बदल दिया ... जैसे शिष्टाचार| आज से शायद तीन दशक पहले इसके माने कुछ और ही होगा पर अब — शिष्टाचार — जैसे एक कृत्रिम बौद्धिकता: जिसने विभिन्न प्रकार के प्रलोभन को अपने में समायोजित किया हुआ है| (बाहर से नहीं मालुम पड़ता|) ऐसे शिष्टाचारी लोग लगभग हर जगह मिल जाते है| शायद देखा होगा (और समझा भी ...) जब बड़े-बड़े लोग जाम की सोहबत में संस्कारिक प्रत्यार्पण की बातें कुछ ऐसे करते हैं: जो उन्हें शोभा नहीं देती और, न ही उन पर जचती है|

ऐसे शिष्टाचार का मुझसे उम्मीद न रक्खे तो बेहतर ... क्योंकि मुझसे न होगा ये सब!

प्रश्न — क्या शिष्टाचार की वास्तव में आवश्यकता है? क्या दो निरे गंवार जो आपस में जो हसीं-मजाक अल्ललढ़ करते है वह शिष्टाचार की श्रेणी मैं आता है? क्या आपको अपने इष्ट से भी शिष्टाचार करना अनिवार्य है ... क्या वो ऐसा चाहते हैं?

— जरा सोचिये?

India — big foot turns back

It goes on and on … India and Pakistan on other side of reasoning every time.

India is always on a complain mode with a ‘toned down’ aggression. Unproductive diplomatic channels are devaluating India’s overall efforts and people’s expectations badly towards tackling global terror.

Pakistan on the other hand seems a lucky guy —

Billions of dollars in aid from America (to tackle terror) is a blessing in disguise for Taliban and its American equivalent. On top of all this — Briton and China reconsidering thoughts that Maulana Masood Azhar — founder, “Jaish-E-Mohammad” has nothing to do with Terror — nice guy with beard — has a terrific sense of humor!

I am no expert in all this.

I feel, Briton and China see terrorists as — “Men from Mars!” They like talking on generic terms but feel hurt when some country start taking names or points out that such person are terrorists or, so-and-so group is involved in global terror.

“Need more evidence …” doesn’t sounds too encouraging — there’s no end to dossiers — keep asking for them and create more doubts.

I feel, most appropriate evidence for Briton would be — Maulana Masood Azhar — bombing Heathrow with a few wise men caught on CCTV.

That’s too 007!

All this doesn’t leave an ordinary person like me to comment.
I don’t really understand these diplomatic humors.

The funny part is — nobody cares!

I bet — Osama one day will figure in DC Comics as; Lex Luther or, who knows even as the Penguin or perhaps … the Riddler.

A murder that was! (Remembering Arushi)

The "Arushi Murder Case" rocked India last year. It was the biggest "Reality TV Show" aired 24/7 on the news channels. Let's review the happenings and remember little Arushi.

Noida Police had cracked the case and invited a press conference where; Dr. Rajesh Talwar was charged as — the prime accused. IGP, Meerut Zone admitted of Dr. Talwar's 'high-connections' and subsequent pressure induced on their investigations. Sad, fate had other plans.

Talwar's 'high-connections' worked and, Mayawati transferred Noida Police's challenging efforts to the CBI. The primary investigation agency of the country made a probable mess. The punchline blasting the television sets was — "How NOT to investigate a Murder". "Arushi Murder Case" was detoured to some unreasonable consequences. Krishna and that other guy are in Maovadi Nepal, Dr. Talwar released and the rest is immaterial.

► Dr. Talwar (Arushi's father) saw something which he couldn't digest on that fate less night ...

► Key points —
► Postmortem report indicated Arushi's death between 2-3 AM.
► The matter was reported after 7AM to the police.
► Arushi's mother informed that, her daughter's room was locked everyday by them; at about 11 in the night. (Reasons unknown.)
► Parents slept in the adjacent room.
► Police investigation proved that Arushi's parents were awake at the time of murder.
► Police investigation also proved that Hemraj was murdered first and then Arushi.
► Police clarified that Dr. Rajesh Talwar consumed liquor that night.
► Police said — both murders were not executed immediately: there was sufficient time-gap.

Points to understand —
► Arushi's mother threw house keys to the maid from the balcony. What were waiting for? Five hours of wait with a dead body in the house is in no terms justified and that too the body of their own blood. Police investigation found out that — a call was made to Canada, to a family member at about 5 in the morning. Before this, a call landed at CBI HQ from Krishna's mobile phone: just a day before the murder. Was he trying to communicate something?
► During Police investigation — the Talwar's couldn’t exactly tell what clothes their respective spouse was wearing that night? (Strange but true)
► Arushi’s parents left for Haridwar on the same day. They ignored police request to return; when they were informed about Hemraj’s found body. What was the hurry? (It is assumed that the murder weapon may have been dropped in the holy Ganges by the Talwars — the murder weapon is missing till date!)
► Noida Police reported illicit relation between Dr. Talwar and Dr. Anita Durrani — Arushi knew of this through Hemraj. Dr. Talwar said that he was constantly blackmailing him. Dr. Talwar learnt that, Hemraj was double-crossing him. He collected money and whispered their promoscuity in his circle.
► Police did not comment on — why both mobile phones were destroyed and could not be found especially Arushi’s. Why was her mobile destroyed? (No answers)
► Rumours galore — the investigation agency wasn't providing complimentary service to the Talwars.

► Everyone knows who killed them —
► Pathetic — The judicial system was compromised again!

► MONEY TALKS!

Andromeda of Politics —

You have the power to imagine. See prospects beyond one’s native imagination.

Imagine politics as a BIG space (cosmos) where every politician wants to venture the universe of Democracy. Just like, infinite black cosmos — political space has many features; stars of different size and shapes, planets and, their revolving satellites (moons), asteroids, comets … in fact a complete galaxy filled with unknown black holes — Dangerous but, intriguing. Since, you have the power to imagine — you must have decoded — what these heavenly bodies mean w.r.t. political equivalents.

The UPA is like a galaxy of multiple (and random) political–planetary system. There are two major galactic systems floating in our Democratic Universe: One — The UPA (United Progressive Alliance) and, Two — The NDA. (National Democratic Alliance)

There’s a spurt of other galaxies too; smaller in size with half life; very different to the natural galaxies — these galaxies are some random formation of political–planetary system with their own planets and their satellites e.g. if an MP is a planet then his followers will be his satellites (moons).

Universal laws of Physics does not apply here.

Unlike natural planets, political equivalent can shift their orbit at given any moment — same norm applies to their moons too i.e. a particular moon of a particular (political) planet can choose to orbit a very different planet. Therefore, it becomes crucial for that planet to generate abundant gravitational energy (pull), so that its moons are firmly bonded and inline to a predefined orbit.

Here, planets can be naturally classified into; male or female planets — though, there’s always a possibility of a ‘third’ type — meandering in the lower sub-systems of this vast universe.

Universal laws of Physics does not apply here.

And, then there are some who are like asteroids and comets; that come from nowhere — play their stint (or stunt) and are then reflected back to … again nowhere (imagine SP candidate from Lucknow.) Asteroids are those vast sections of party workers, who have nothing else to do other than revolve around their respective planets (Netas).

This Democratic Universe is not an absolute vacuum. It is filled with various electro-magnetically charged gages whose motion and paths are influenced by various political–planetary systems. Also noticeable are “Black Holes” whose attributes still needs to be investigated.

As you know that a black-hole is the densest object known in the Universe — so dense, that even light fails to pass through it! Its magnetic power is unimaginable and — sucks everything into its center i.e. “point of singularity”.

Political “black-holes” are “negative destiny” in a political space. Such is its power that even big political galaxies aren’t spared. Recently, BJP led NDA became victim of this BIG BLACK HOLE! Such was its density that even Advani’s solar flares got miserably sucked into it.

All galaxies (including their subsets) floating in this Democratic Universe are radioactive in nature. Various political elements in this space emit some form of radiation. These elements may also gain … what we call — “critical size.” This size may apply to a single planet or a group of planets i.e. a political–planetary system. Critical size may directly affect other political elements or groups who haven’t — in fact, the present constellation does not allow any planet or its subsystems to reach this size.

Theoretically speaking — critical size invokes fission and i.e. an irreversible process. Hence, if any planet’s size grows to the extent of this size — it is immediately divided.

Reason behind "Low voter turnout"

I have been posting on various forums/discussions boards; especially media based sites. Many of those were not published due to editorial norms. I do not blame them. They reserve the right to air/block third party views.

I want to exercise my rights too!

Right to express my views and — accept others views too. I'll do it here —

Recently, I replied to a topic created posted by a news channel on their website. (see blog title)
My reply never made it on their page — here's my view;

►► "Low voter turnout" is a huge and a complex issue — but, first — how many out of the big billion have — Voter ID cards?



Second — who is to be blamed for, low key voting?

It would be highly inappropriate to solely blame us for this. People know it very well — what a Vote means and, the value it carries when that button is pressed on EVM. People also know their candidates and therefore, in my opinion — they don't want to waste their precious Vote on candidates — “NOT WORTHY” in their eyes or senses (Absolutely justified!)

Political parties’ fielding candidates upon their own discretion DOES NOT capacitate to — people voting for them, though theoretically speaking — one must and, should Vote.



Our democracy is facing two-way practice of abeyance for quite a some time now. One: Political abeyances from actualizing people’s democracy through commitments prescribed on their own manifesto and, Two: Voter’s abeyances from feeding, democracy with fresh air of votes — both practices, compliment each other on tangent. (Not conducive)

Discussing political abeyances is a sensitive issue.

Yes! Voter’s abeyances may be discussed to a certain extent. Voter’s apathy NOT to stand in-queue for his/her democratic statement, is in itself — A STATEMENT — this is people’s motion of antitrust against political corporations. This should not be made into a laughing stock like — “Pappu can’t Vote #?$%!” — As a matter of fact — “Pappu doesn’t wants to Vote!” — And, that’s very simple: reasons stated above.

To add, insult to injury — illegal immigrants with ration cards and voter identity card are frisked to vote. (And, Why won’t they?)

I haven’t seen the Press talk much about — Rule No. 49(O) in the Conduct of Election Rules 1961 that says — "Elector deciding not to vote - If an elector, after his electoral roll number has been duly entered in the register of voters in Form 17 A and has put his signature or thumb impression thereon as required under sub-rule (1) of rule 49L, decided not to record his vote, a remark to this effect shall be made against the said entry in Form 17A by the presiding officer, and the signature or thumb impression of the elector shall be obtained against such remark."

In my opinion, Rule No. 49(O) is an instrument of accountability provided by our Constitution — though, it has remained off-key well before I was born. I was talking about; people’s motion of antitrust against political corporations —

This is that antitrust law provided to us, by our constitution. To protect us — the voters — and maintain — democratic integrity.

So, the next time you see a Pappu — don’t laugh or scorn —
► Tell him to exercise his/her VOTE through 49(O)

Did Vajpayee’s absence effect BJP?

I have been posting on various forums/discussions boards especially media based sites. Many of my posts were not published dues to editorial reasons. I do not blame them. They reserve the right to air/block third party views.

I want to exercise my rights too.
Right to express my views and — accept others views too.
I'll do it here —

Recently, I replied to a topic posted by a news channel. (see blog title)
My reply didn't make it on their page — here's my view;



► Yes, perhaps in a certain way. People still identify Vajpayee with BJP's central identity — His absence, suffered party's ethos.



Replying to a question by NDTV on what went wrong: in fact, one journalist from the channel asked — is it not right to say that, BJP turned this election into a misfortune? To which, Sushma Swaraj replied that — it's still premature to comment and, the party will ponder over it.
(Strange!)

Party’s prime ministerial cut-out remarked that — election results completely took them by surprise!
(Strange Again!)

Then why, I and so many others did not have to predict the result six months back? Almost everyone knew (or had this blunt hunch) that, Congress will be the ruling party with Dr. Singh chairing the cabinet. I personally, wasn’t keen to delve into other configurations AND — I’m not a die-hard Fan of the Congress.

BJP’s denial of, under-evaluating its own voters, is a clear reflection of theological dysentery within the party — how can he say that, the results surprised them? Are they trying to hint that, people conspired against them?

What happened to Advani’s vociferous concerns — “videsho me rakha kala-dhan, wapas desh me laayenge” — “will bring all black money from abroad.”

Why it took more than five years to say this? He could have actually done this when he was in power!

Anyways, I’m happy that election results gave its piece of mind to the exit polls. Follow traffic rules before crossing the road — see Left, see Right and walk the Centre.

The UPA / NDA seat difference crossed a century.

++ Welcome Bloggers

Hello Friends — Hope you are doing well amidst all challenges!

Elections are here and May, this year will be hotter than ever. As usual — political parties will do everything — campaign (for their party), contest (elections), compel (voters in their favour), capture (booths) et-al.

Election in India is quiet complicated and by far — most difficult to hold in the World — full credit to the Election Commission who does the job well, without much complains — whereas, the political mumbo-jumbo has everything to complain in spite of their skill-sets and known modus-operandi.

Pseudo-intellectuals and opinion makers create a hue & cry about renegade voters and falling voter line-up. On the contrary — how many of us confidently speak on — the feudal system of politics and its application on our democracy. How many of us can openly differentiate mindsets between an educated and ‘not so educated voter’? How many of us can openly point — “Identify the candidate First and then, the Party!” We actually do the opposite. (Alas!)

Why do people complain after they vote a candidate to power? How much effective these complaints prove to be? Why do we feel that — the next government would be a better one? (Is hope something deceptive?)

Sound’s negative (huh?)

NO! The issue is — we don’t speak! We should. We should proactively participate in discussing what’s NOT RIGHT — openly against the face of the wrongdoers.

You are most welcome to post your concerns and invite your friends (and well-wishers.) Please use this Blog as your own — proactively and productively.

India Eelctions 2009

Strange! I don't understand politics. I also fail to understand — politics as a way-of-means to run Democracy. Thoroughbreds of this field including intellectuals who are scholars — experts, who profoundly indulge themselves into the arithmetic of politics, fail to exact on a stable and, a prosperous democracy. I feel the Indian version of Politics is more speculative than the secondary market where — the position of underwriters is as bad as their public issue!

I, Welcome this elections wholeheartedly. We should all cast our vote.

The vital question still remains is — Who? Is it imperative to vote for those candidates, who have filed their nomination? What, if I don’t find anyone reasonable enough to stamp duty and still wish to Vote. What can I (or anyone) do in this case?

YES I CAN.
I will cast a Protest Vote!

++What about you ...
