Racism - Why Indians cry ?

As per part of NTU rules, students have to vacate hostel after 1 year. So my time have come and i am looking for room now a days. This strange incident happened with me today. I called one guy Dr. Atanu Kumar Das(doing Postdoc in NTU) who gave a adv about a room, however i was surprise to see the questionaire that happened with me on phone.

Atanu Kumar Das (Dr): Hello
Me : Is it Mr. Atanu Kumar Das ?
Atanu Kumar Das (Dr) : Yes
Me : I saw one adv in public folder about 1 room from you.
Atanu Kumar Das (Dr) : Where are you from ?
Me : I am from India.
Atanu Kumar Das (Dr): Oh i mean which part of India ?
Me : North Indian
Atanu Kumar Das (Dr) : Specifically which part of north India ?
Me : I started feeling irritated and bad what sort of question is this ? I replied Punjab
Atanu Kumar Das (Dr) :Sorry to say but i cant give room to North Indians , actually i have some bad experience....
Me : Ok ..
....

and then i did send a email to this Guy (which i always do... after seeing people's typical weird behavior) .. although he is one research fellow ( PostDoc) in NTU and i understand this kind of racism is not acceptable in Singapore, however now i don't want to complain but i was thinking why people from India are so much state oriented or in other words against a particular state oriented and if they are like that then how come Indians can complain about racism if they experience in other country.
We have Mr. Raj Thackrey, who only see Maharashtra for only Marathi Manus. Compairing to that i was surprise to see when Singapore's prime- minister said we should welcome foreign talent and there is still space for them although i think Singapore has become very conjusted.

Well thats just a example, Dr Das could have really had bad experience otherwise he would not have behaved in a strange way however it reminds me - we Indians yet to learn that people from other state/language are also people and we should welcome all. No country or region or place can grow if they have this ME and MINE kind of mentality. It may look nice or attractive for a while but it has adverse consequences in future !

Anyway just another experience - We Indians should change our regional racism behavior, rather then shouting at foreign countries .... no one is perfect - not me atleast and not you also !

RSP Elders ...

I joined RSP Elders because of keeping myself busy however it turned out to be a learning experience in itself. With the kind of load and burden you have in NTU, i want to really admire people who come with smiling face ( not at all complaining) to do something for a part of society to which we all are heading ( slowly and gradually).

We all learn from our experience so thus from volunteering, it made me realise that there are people who are more generous, humble, patient then me ... . Most importantly i met wonderful guys ( who have become really good friends).

Sometimes i really felt bad bcos i was not able to get proper excuses to give to Pei Shan that why i am late. There was not a single time i was on time and i always get "okay okay :) no problem yea " message from Pei Shan :).

We did all kind of stuff in 2 months time, from sophisticated walks/rounds of AWWA to compete with professional trash/newspaper collector and then to hip Hop dancers.


Yday it was last day of this Semester, before we meet again :), as every start has ending so that we can start again with full energy :). Please see this video recorded by Cindy (thanks), hope u will enjoy our best efforts ( ok i learned the steps in just 10 mins la ).

Run Singapore Marathon

I went for this marathon on 6th of September 2009, with some of my friends (as most of them were not interested). It was flagged off by Singapore's president Mr. Nathan and total distance was 5 Km. The track was the F1 Track to be used later by Speedos like Michael Schumaker, near Padang. Well i ran just to test if track is ok for all Speedos :) . It was fun :)

I have kind of started liking running. I hope one day i will run from J & K (Srinagar/Jammu) to south of India till KanyaKumar (southern point of India) ha ha ... its a dream not sure if i will ever do or not. But there is no tax on thinking atleast!

Although i am very slow in running however as Confucius said - Your speed doesn't matter until u don't stop !

Who Moved My Cheese !

Well i was asked to move to another Lab with quite BIG cubicle and with lots of more facilities however i was not happy about it. I was thinking am more happy in more present cube which is more like a seat in cyber cafe :) . I think we all don't like change bcos of some X , Y, Z reason. I am sure i don't like !

Then i remember this book which was " Who Moved my cheese ? " well the essence of the book was that those who just change themselves with time are better then who simply crib about CHANGE. CHANGE is the ultimate constant and its differential is always zero ( Well one of my Profs in College used to say so) ... so i thought Dumbo nothing to worry lets enjoy the change and everything happens for good ....

Well u never know which book and what reading will help u :).

Trip to Pulau Ubin

I have experienced in my life the place you visit doesn't matter how beautiful they are , what matter more is with whom you roam around there. When you go with friends, or with good company then place automatically becomes more attractive and you can cherish its memories !

Trip to Pulau Ubin was organized by ISC at NTU. Palau Ubin is a small Island near main Singapore Island. Its rich with fluara and fona, you can see quite good greenary if you stay in middle of concerete jungle. It was really fun because trip was with my friends and we enjoyed alot ! We all board bus at 8 am from NTU, and since it was too early for most of us on a weekend day, most of them slept !

We reached at Changi Ferry Terminal in 30 mins, from where we have to board a ferry. Many went for breakfast, but since most of my friends stuffed themselves before taking bus, so we took some snaps there :). Well i noticed something .. my dear friend Gu ( who is more like a Bro ..) started getting mixed up with someone. Well i thought it could be just a urge to know someone however with time it was something else .. .. ha ha ha .. ( Gu are you reading this :P ).

If you cant notice anything in following picture ....

You can see something in following :)

I was so angry with Gu, that i almost tried to throw him in water from ferry, but later changed my mind !

On the ferry it was fun almost every one tried to make a Titanic famous pose without their Kate Winslet .... :).

Another one :)

Finally we all reached safely after doing all the adventure on the boat in deep sea with no SHARK sea ... ha ha .


After reaching at Palau Ubin, we all picked each a biycle for 5S$ (for whole) day, I think it was bad bargaining skills that our leader did, otherwise i would have gone it for 4 S$ he he ... As you can see we all stop on the way for a break.



After taking some pictures .... again we started our journey, however some saw some thing in the jungle and everyone stop there itself :(



Then we noticed that it was jungle creature ( Sorry i don't know its name ! ). I think its quite Sexy ;)



Then we moved to Chek Jawa Wetlands !



I would like to write less and want to put more pictures ( as much as possible to show the beauty). Its not quite Big like SundarBon ( in India and Bangladesh), however it has its own identity.

I think m too lazy to put some more pics .. will do it later :)

Happy FriendShip Day !

We can't choose our relatives but yes we can choose our friends. Friends are just another kind of relations that we build in our life with time, like enemies, lovers and so on.

In modern world i believe our parents should be our first friends and then our siblings and then our outer world friends. With time a relations really takes it shapes and our heart tells us whom we can really call our friends. With time the mask goes and fades away and we see the real identity of a person who he/she is, whether our frequency matches with it or not.

Please don't mix friends and lovers. Feeling of fondness with Sex they are too separate. Now days people don't mind doing sex with their friends( i read in some article), how awful it is. Is a part time job that we ask from our friends. No everything has special place and its better if we keep things separate. I am just reminding to myself. Others are saints m not :)

Anyways friends are those who will like you and there with you, for who you are and not who they want you to be. Its precious things that we should adore and keep it safe in our heart !

May GOD give everyone good friends in life :) !

Every Day is a new day and so is Love !

My Graduate College principal once said - Consider your everyday as a new day. Never link your days , never compare your days. Never compare 2 roses. So apply same principal for Love also.

We usually do mistake of comparing people even when we try to love someone or want to fall for someone in love. So even if you are trying for second time love( i am talking about life partner sense) treat it as a fresh. Don't compare it with your previous ones.

Open you heart and give it another chance to yourselself to live and to be in love again :) Oh ok i am saying this in general !

You listen to following lovely Song !

Virtual (Online) Social Networking

My Laptop got screwed up and i was not able to come online most of time so this really implies that i was not able to contact all my friends who are far-far away or who only liked to b contacted online (Bcos they are 2uuuuu Bzy). But it made me realized that i was having enough time to think about myself, instead of wandering around my Online Social Network. Although i can't deny the power and usefulness of computers and internet but also it made me realised that computers and Internet are 2 main reasons of one's actual loneliness. We want more and more online social network friends and give less importance to people around us. We play games, work on applications to get center of attraction of our everyone who are in our network but we do less to make happy who are around us physically. I just realized it ...... not sure whether realization will change me or not !

My Sexuality is my Buisness !

DISCLAIMER : Views expressed in this are totally mine. No offense to any religion or to anyone. I am not member of NAZ or any other organization who work for HIV patients. Its what i feel and what time demands to accept TRUTH instead of being Hypocrite.

We choose our friends but not our relative. Let me add more - We can choose our sexual partner but sorry we can't choose our sexual orientation. OK go and check BIOLOGY books !

On 2nd July 2009, Honorable Delhi Court made landmark judgment that "The Section 377 of the IPC (Indian Penal Code) as far as it criminalizes gay sex among consenting adults is violation of fundamental rights". Well I think Judges in India are more broad minded then Politicians.

So before we go to talk about sexuality and gayness (LGBT) , what is SEX ? In 4 entities of Hindu society its one - Dharma(Good deeds- NOT RELIGION) , Arth(money), Kamm(SEX), Moksha(Salvation) !

I will talk about Sexual Orientation and thus how and why a GAY person is a normal person.

SEX- Well thats the thing about which we most (if not all) move around. Going to gym to make bodies, studying hard to get good salary to get good wife. Girls studying(or cramming) hard to get good husband for what - to get a good partner ? For what ? We all know what is sex. We all are product of SEX, dont tell me we are product of LOVE. Because Love never ends and the thing which never ends, cant produce a product :). The process ( like sex which do ends after a while) can produces something - like us !

OSHO once said - When parents wants their kid to get married - they are looking for a social acceptable SEXual partner. But when they are arranging for wife or husband what are they arranging for ? We all want to get married, to get a good partner for what ? To have a safe and socially acceptable SEX. But yes after many years we find that they can also be good partners in our old age. Those who wants to make a point - let me ask whats the main reason of divorces ?? We don't like to accept this after all its hard to digest TRUTH. We can't accept sex but you know the flowers you offer to GOD is a product of Sexual activity - Ask a Biologist, and Fruits also which we eat during our fasting days? So how come Sex could be wrong but yes its good if it happens between 2 people whom both are consensus on it and agreeing for.

SEX is very important even GOD can't deny that and nothing bad to talk or to have it. So sexuality is another aspect of SEX which is equally important for anyone. When everyone want to sex either through casually or socially acceptable ( marriage) ways, then its individual's right to choose with whom one would like to have sex with ? Whether its a girl or boy.

Whats NATURAL and UNNATURAL about being GAY ?

Many people say being gay is unnatural ? I don't think its unnatural. We all are product of nature and SEX is part of it. How come its characteristic - SEXUALITY can be unnatural ?
Nature is what drives you from inside and its a fact people are attracted for particular sex becuase of particular hormones.

So if 2 boys (pubic ones)/Guys/man wants to have pleasure(or SEX) from each other bodies whats wrong in that ? Some people like drinking lemon juice and others pineapple.

Something is Unnatural - if you are Heterosexual and do a sex with a boy/kid without his consensus. If two people who do sex, driven by their sexuality and consensually and conciously then it can't be UNnatural. Its the hormones produced naturally which is driving them to do so. If mass rape happens that is unnatural.

Bloody Government is too smart here. Moily (Law Minister) says we need to consult religious groups - What is this ? Do they consult religious groups before making any law. Let me put some examples here.
In almost every religion liquor is not considered Good or like it should be banned, then why don't they banned that ? Just becuase Government earns too much money from that ? Why Moily has to ask specially Christian groups, did they made every law after consulting them in India ? Well today most of the catholic father from churches rape their SON then any one else. So instead of raping Son they should come out and go with same age guy.

A old custom - Sati Pratha (a part of Hindu custom) was abolished from Indian Society because when some people felt that its against humanity. Why did they abolished something from Hindu society when at that time most Hindus don't wanted it ? Just becuase consciously it don't give equal rights to Ladies or its a custom against mankind.

What is the impact of not accepting which do exist in Society

Today GAY people are one of the main reasons of HIV in society . WHY ?

When you know you are not legalized you go and do with anyone you don't even know. You go and do without proper protection and in hurry. This all these things lead to spreading of VIRUS. So until we don't accept that this is part of society it will be harming more. Just saying this is bad , this is bad .. you can't remove or hide something which do exist. Better is to accept few things.

Yes to those who people talk about Indian Culture - where they go when there is mass rape happens specially with foreigners. Where the culture goes when you beat your brothers just because they belong to different state or religion (this is Atithi devo Bhav - Guest is my GOD).
Also i feel pity when educated and matured people also talk rubbish.

Politicians keep 3 wives. Change their religion to marry someone else. People (a must read) talks about marriage values who talks against Same-Sex marriage have affairs with their employees.

Please don't make a hue and cry over this. Go and see Khajuraho temples whose India is proud of. What are they showing on the walls of temple ? Sexual pose not only between 2 opposite sex but also between same sex.

I Also don't agree with some people this is being imported from Europe or saying this means India is progressing. If you accept something which do exist in society or around doesn't makes us progressive but WISE.

Anyone could be gay. Your best friend or your uncle or any x, y, z could be. tomorrow anyone's son could be born gay. It doesn't mean we should start hating them. I think its good if Government and we as society handle this subject maturely instead of ignoring or simply moving away from the Issue.

First Marathon - 480 - 7th June 2009 !

Ohhh ok, it was not a so called BIG marathon but it was really BIG for me, as it was my first marathon. We ( NTU friends) all ran and we all ran because we all felt that we( people like me) need to start somewhere and its always good to start with small things. .So 4-80 marathon was ideal :). As a participant I was excited to get T shirt and a goodie Bag. However i was surprised to see organizing committee also gave us a water bottle, Towel, Health Magazine and 2 more ( not much of use for me). So guys don't miss it next time ! You never know what will you get when nothing in Singapore is Free (oh ok exaggeration) :)

Marathon was suppose to start @ 10 and we all reached around 9 and off course i was the last one to reach on spot ( how come a Dog's tail can become straight, its my habit, it will die with me ). Actually this time, since this time i traveled on my Bike instead of MRT and traffic was too much in orchard area. So got late. Oh you don't believe me :( . Once i reached there everyone wanted to take a snap on my bike, so guys started taking pictures like Vikram, Hari, Narinder and Ravi !



Offcourse gals were also not able to resist.



P.S : I don't even know how to ride a bike properly, so sorry for lie, we all took snaps after we were not able to resist after seeing mechanical beauties ! Who says mechanical is the line for handsomes only , it may be, but they do produce beauties :)

After reaching i started talking with my friends ( that's my favorite hobbie) and once i noticed people around me are doing all sorts of stretching exercise, even i followed them and tried to make by body like a rubber band however my stiffed Indian Body was not able to do so !

Race started from Singapore Plaza(SP). We all have to run for 2km towards Far East Plaza(FEP) from SP. Then Climb 27 floors by stairs and then come down by lift and then back 2km running from FEP to SP.

As soon the race start most of people form my group ( like Hari, Abhik, Narinder, Vikram and Monica ) all ran like anything. However a person like me who follows "Slow and Steady wins the race sometime" started according to his pace.

While running on the way i found that i am not the slowest one , there are people who like to walk rather then run. Sorry only picture has been provided, i cant tell you his name !

The 2km running from SP to FEP was good, we all runners do follow traffic rules ( I am afraid of Singapore Police ). I thank organizers from bottom of my heart since all the running pathway was shady , i didn't become more TANNED, ha ha ! 1 shade darker was saved ! My Mom must b happy :).

One good thing that i was feeling while running was many tourists and people and specially respected Filipino ladies were all looking at us ( marathon buddies) with a gentle smile and i was myself felt as something like a great personality whom people are appreciating ( i hope so) for doing something good. There was a Father Son duo and i appreciated Father's attitude instead of telling his son to sit at home in Air Con, he carried him for race and son was also equally enthusiastic !

Ok Some how i completed my 2 Km running and then most difficult part was to climb the 27 Storry Building. Since i feel stairs and Room heights in Singapore are small so its like climbing 14 stories in India ( again exaggeration). I somehow completed that also, although people were coughing, breathing heavily however due to God's graciousness i was just sweating profusely. After reaching at the top floor i was anxiously waiting for Lift. While coming down from lift from 27th to 1st floor, i realized Lift was apparently like a sauna rather then any comfort and performance of any algorithm or mechanical device is checked in extreme conditions.

So i started my backward journey from FEP to SP which was again fun as along with me was a malasian couple. The guy could have won the race but he was more interested in been toegther with his partner rather then winning. So i felt sometimes journey is more enjoyable with a good partner rather then reaching at destination alone. It was fun ! People who reached already were all drenched and were making themselves comfortable.

Some people were hungry like anything after race. As soon they complete they start eating :(

After taking enough rest, we also helped local authorities to lift some vehicles parked unauthorized !

Anyway i was not the last one in my group to reached back, sorry no offense to girls but she reached late along with some more enthusiastic people. Again sorry no name just picture, but i was happy to see they ran finally the last 15 steps.

Monica was not happy about the length of race, she wanted to run more and felt bad about this as seen in picture. Vikram was more then happy to complete the race somehow. Different people!

However later Vikram and we all told her that lets go back to NTU while running instead of through MRT and that made her really happy. Some people like running alot and She is one of them.

Once we all reached back and everyone was suggested to wear Red T shirt given by organizing committee to take group snaps. So you can see some of our group snaps down. Here you go ...




P.S: My sincere thanks to Abhik dada who registered for all us, spending from his pocket generously for the sake of running and for our health. Guys Keep the spirit and i hope we all will pay him back ASAP .. ha ha ha.

" Participation is more important then winning. Journey is more important then destination" Lets keep the spirit alive. See you soon in next marathon !

Rajeev Motwani - Thanks for your Contribution !

Its really sad to hear untimely death of Rajeev Motwani. Untimely since he was quite young, he was just 45. Yes politicians in India and Scientist and researchers are always young. I came to know about his death on 8th June. After 3 days of his death !

You can read more on about his untimely death here. and here

Computer Science world will miss him !

From Vienna (Austria) to Jalandhar (India) with Love Oops Sorry with Hate !

Another BIG SHAME for Indian Society which still can't leave its cast systems behind. When people converted(forcefully or for Greed)/changed/influenced [for example - Islam or Christianity/(Buddhism or Jainism)/Sikhism they thought there will be no cast system in their new faith, however i would say it was something like taking out water from a glass and then putting it in Jug. Water never changes (people never changes) only changes is the Shape ! The core things which still occupy the human mind - its hard to take out - if we are told you are upper and see we are Lower ( Off course we have reservation now .. Yahoo ! ). I remind a uncle in Singapore (Sikh) talking to me how its there in Hindu Society but eventually said even we don't like our Son to getting married to a a low cast girl. Well then i thought, he is born and brought up here, how come he can think like this ?? But sometimes some things are running in our mind - our society (with due respect our parents also) teaches all this from childhood.

What really happened in Vienna that lead to violence in Jalandhar ???

Incident - A Sikh Priest was killed in Vienna on 25th May 2009 in Vienna (Austria) by some Persons for reasons believing Sect Leader were disrespecting Sri Guru Granth Sahib. See more for this, or this ...

Who was Sikh Priest who got killed ?
Shri Swami Ramanand, (57 years old) was killed. He was 2nd to Shri Swami Sant Niranjan Dass,( 68 years old ) who got survived in the attack. They belong to Dera Sachkhand whose headquarters is in Ballan, Jalandhar, India.

What is Dera SachKhand ?
Dera is a place of where religious (not sure spritual) people lives. Dera "SachKhand" is located at Balland about 15kms from Jalandhar. It was started around 90 years back. Please see there website for more. Small history and about Dera can also be viewed here as a video.

Reasons of Attack ?
Some times we make truth so simple that we really don't want to understand things with depth because we can't accept it and sometimes we make it so complex that we don't want to understand it.

There are various reasons of this attack also many theories for attack. The simplest one is traditional Sikhs feel that Ravidassi/SachKhand Preachers are disrespecting Shri Guru Granth Sahib.

Ravidasi feels they follow Holy Book becaus 5th Guru included various prayers from Sant Shri Ravi Dass in the holy book. So they feel whereever there beloved ones literature or prayers are included they should respect that. Also at same time they have their own Gurus whom, they follow. However this 2 Guru system is not acceptable to traditional Sikhs.

Another reason is Upper caste Sikhs control traditional Gurudwaras. Mostly people in middle belt of Punjab (called Doaba - between 2 rivers) are in Europe/Canada/USA. So naturally Ravidasi don't want their donations ( MONEY - :-o) to be controlled by upper caste Sikhs. So they mostly donate to their sect. Thats why even MAYA Memsaab ( Mayawati) visited Sect's another temple in London during her visit there ?? People are intelligent enough to make out why. This could be another reason for vengeance.

However at same time i don't agree that with this intension Dera Sachkhand must have been started 90 years back. Look at the pictures in the site. Saints really look spiritual and innocents. Rather all saints are innocents and spiritual. I can only give you assurance once i meet them all , when my turn comes :).

There is another theory given by KPS Gill (former DGP of Punjab) that killers could from be radical Sikh Organizations who are mostly staying in East European countries (Sorry i am not able to find link). However it was later got confirmed by IBN Channel publishing a similar news. Sorry i dont have link now.

AFTERMATH
-----------------
Khoon ka Badla Khoon (Revenge ! )- How come we can forget a pet Indian Bollywood dialogue offcourse followed by mindless and foolish people.

As soon the news comes to Punjab , Sect Followers got angry and they destroy public property (Like Burning of trains , destroying Shops, forcefully shutting down business). Indirect Result was - many daily wages workers can't earn. 30,000 people stranded in Jammu because trains were canceled throughout Punjab. Well in my dream it came to me someone's mother might have been waiting for his boy. Somebody might have been going to some other place for exams with many months of preparation. Off course Business bodies showed a damage of 7000 Crore rupees (INR) but i am worried about a common man who is worried about Dal - Roti on per day basis !

What happened in Vienna was bad. Even Sikh Priests condemn it. Off course it was a work of mindless and narrow minded people who think too narrowly about their religion.

There was another angle, although Punjab Government said it was not prepared or was not expecting such things to happen, but thats what are governments are for, to deal with unexpected and untoward incidents. I have always forgive old people so what should i do with Grand Uncle governing Punjab :). Mr KPS Gill said there could be angle to this non-control of anger by tough hands ( by Government) due to byelection in NoorMahal Constituency.

Well having said all this, i just want say Government should be more responsible in controlling all such incidents where sufferer is common man ( Aam Admi) otherwise then they (Badal (not Akali Dal) and BJP) will say Why Aaam admi ka hath Congress key sath ?? ( Why a common hand is with Congress party ( Election symbol of congress is hand - palm)

Whats the cause w.r.t Religion?
------------------------------------
The problem with every religion is , that once master leaves his or her physical bodies, people stop follow teaching and they start giving Importance to people. I remember once Pilot Baba saying that Only Individual gets salvation and not Sects or Groups. So we need to understand this. People have their own perception and belief to follow. We should be more tolerated towards others faiths. Lets become more spiritual rather then religious and off course more tolerant.

Summarizing -
1) Killing of Saint was a mindless Act and inhumane.
2) Destroying of public property and giving trouble to general public by Baba ji's followers is equally punishable.
3) Government should act more swiftly in such cases.
4) We need to become more tolerable atleast in secular country like India.

Election 2009 Verdict - Singh is King !

DISCLAIMER - THIS BLOG IS PURELY FICTIONAL WORK. I DONT WANT TO HURT ANYONE. ITS COINCIDENTAL, IF ANYONE STORY MATCHES WITH THIS !

I could have totally forgot to write about this, until my friend asked me if i have written anything about this or not ?

Before i write or all you read, let me clear few things, I am Indian, i have not voted since i don't have a voted ID card, nor i am in India currently, but as a typical Indian am very much interested in closely watching political scene. Also although i am Hindu by birth but that doesn't mean by default i am BJP member :) ( I need to say becos some might feel after reading my thoughts !). I am just trying to analyze and see what are the reasons of Congress Victory ? Someone's Victory is also attributed because of its opponents weaknesses. So its also natural to see BJP, Left parties defeat !

Hmm, if i see my personal academic life a person is called first/Topper even if he has just 1 marks ahead then 2nd one, so is in politics. My cousin was shocked to know that Vinod Khanna lost the election from Gurdaspur with not so great margin. Now that is what i wanted to say ! In India we call it Kismat ki baat ( luck factor ! ). There could have been other luck factors in whole country and if we accumulate such cases, it adds up to Congress victory. But i surely don't want to generalize it.

Also states like Rajasthan and M.P , where BJP has done really bad and also are the reasons for BJP defeat. Another reason of not having enough allies and then breaking away from BJD ( of Orissa) and not sure what make them to attract for TRS :( ?. Its for BJP to see what went wrong there, its because leadership, infighting or non-development ? I am not sure ! Also congress did well in assembly elections in Rajasthan, might have started some development work, so that could have helped congress.

Well it did well in States like Gujrat and karnatka. Gujrat makes sense to me. As Modi Bhai has done really well as phar as the development of state is concerned ! [ Well Congress may call him a Communal/Hindu Leader but without even mentioning Jagdish tytler and Sajan Kumar Name ( for Delhi Genocide against Sikhs in 1984 riots ). Well people forget there sins and always remembers others like me :), So cant blame congress ! Also congress definition of secularism is Please treat them differently. I remember ManMohan Singh saying "Muslims must have first claim on resources". Well definitely that is not communal, since its been said by pseudo secular party ! I feel after saying this, there is not much difference betwen Modi and ManMohan Singh, because a wrong is wrong whether you do it theoretically or practically - you have hurted in some sense to people. I am hurt at least ! Also both have done some wrong by saying or doing something wrong and then both like and working for development ! ] My point is in this country everyone in this equal right on country resources no matter what your caste , religion and background is ?

[P.S : I am planning to write about pseudo secularism in India - which includes/cover Political and Media in India]

Left parties, well what should i say about them. They mentors - Chinaaa ! They have changed alot but Karat and brigade don't want to change. For example if you see Kolkata ( Fort of Marxist) , whatever Britishers left, the buldings and everything are in same condition. Why ? Since Left don't like change. They don't like computers ( bcos they are from US) , but they like machines ( since they are from Germany- home of Karl Max). Well that was too much from myside, but its ok, they can do a bandh (Stop everything for a day) against me !

Because of Left policies (Kolkata) and infighting in Kerala, they have lost and naturally gain was for Trinmool Congress and Congress respectively!

In UP- Maya Memsaab, the so called Padi Likhi Dalit ke beti ( educated daughter of a low caste) who torchures Govt Employees to give her money and presents occasionally and specially on her Bday.( This is very right, as one of old friends father was in electricity Deptt, and he said his father was made to pay, as initially he was not willing to). She also has another Job like making her and Elephant Saute and putting at every corner in UP. I am not sure, In India they put someone's statue after once death . But Maya is different, she can put reservation in that quota also. She is one good lady just to do caste based politics, dont even know how to talk or what words to choose when she speaks.

Also Kuddos to Rahul and Priyanka, they have done really well in their speeches and Road Show in UP and people realises that they are really nice kids of Nehru- Gandhi dynasty. Lets try them also. So all these factors helped in getting some seat in UP.

Then finally middle class person who think there is no hope from any Government, and think atleast they can't change anything. Also they are more comfortable in watching elections and voting on T.V rather then going out to vote. I don't have to say more about this middle class people in India. As i am also one of them ! We all know we are most culprit people !

Whatever the reasons may be, UPA won this election. All the credit goes to Sonia Gandhi as a Congress Party Chief, work of Mr. Singh as Prime-minister. I definately don't agree with BJP saying Sonia as foreighner. She was married to Indian and She wears and behaved like a typical graceful India lady ( i think much better then someof indian born ladies - now i don't want to dig someone personal life for my blog). I have respect for her, she would have gone back to Italy, remember she didn't join politics immediately after Rajiv Gandhi's Death !

It would be bad on my part if i don't appreciate Dr. ManMohan Singh as a personality who represents India as nation. I am very proud that he is our prime-minister (Would be ) and I am conident he will take wise decisions as he has always taken in past. Everyone has done or said something wrong for which we repent later ( I have done many times :) ), so did Mr. Singh(i thikns once in a lifetime), but its alright. Well i think at this point we need Mr. Singh has prime- minister, . He is very decent, Wise, clean imaged and thinks sensibly and has farsightedness ! May God give him good health and some independent thinking ( you know what i mean ! - i have to add up some spices to my story dude !)

Finally we need to accept and see what the verdict and outcome of result is ! A topper is a topper and result is - Singh is Kinggggggggg !

JairrrnaailllList - A journalist who throw shoes on someone !

I wanted to write about this, However because of exams it got delayed. Obviously now you can make out what i am going to write about ? Who is a Jairnalist who are more interested in showing there anger by throwing their shoes rather then throwing a question !

Well i got the inspiration when a journalist names Jarnail Singh throwed a shoe at P.Chidambaram (home minister - India ). Off course it was courageous at the same time very childish act. Well this looks like when a child who thinks that his fellow players/friends will not listen to him for something he/she generally do such acts. ( I remember doing this :-)). This infection first was seen in Iraq and it first got infected Muntadar al-Zaidi. He was the first person who thought of this novice idea that apart from asking questions a journalist can throw shoe in a press- conference. More on this - i hope everyone knows he throw his valuable shoe at non other then Bushhhh ! Bush was really cute who said this shows freedom of expression. Not sure why didn't allowed Saddam Hussein for freedom of expression !

Ok coming back to this, after that there were many incidents, one on Wen Jiabao (Chinese President ). Another was on Israel Ambassidor to Sweden. So it was expected to India as well ! s every foreign brand is coming, so why not shoe throwing ? All the credits goes to Jairnail Singh! who brought this culture to India !

Well i was not able to understand why a journalist has to throw a shoe at someone ? I used to heard in my child days in old BollyWood movies - kalam ki takat ! ( the power of Pen - it can change anything - it has more power then a Gun - Ak 47). So why a journalist has to throw a shoe ? This shows that he is no more a journalist - he is like any street walking person - who is very biased towards one thinking/idea. I think a journalist can create more embarrassment for a person/leader if he asks very smart questions. A question which is need to be addressed. Which can't be avoided. This will create more shameful situation then getting hit by a shoe.

Also I think press/media should make sure by telling their employees (journalist) not to follow this. As this is very bad habit started getting developed among new generation. Taking things personal and in case you don't get answer then simple throw a shoe !

If Shoe throwing could have been a solution - then it could have been adopted by every media giant. However i think journalist have to sharpen their mind and pen instead of buying cheap shoes before going to a press - conference. Now don't ask me - Why Cheap shoes ???

SlumDog Millionaire

My Review / Comment about SlumDog Millionaire

--------------------------------------------------

First of all thanks to Li Chenliang - u know why(movie, :-)). Ok now this is for Abdul, Noell ( Swiss ) and Li Chenliang ( Chinese ) and Jia ( Malay).

Movie - i think movie keeps u bind with ur seat. As u don't know what gona happen next ? :-0 ?? Noell said - Novel is better then movie. I am not a good reader and so cant comment.

Well i think its a typical bollywood movie - has all the masala (spices) - but this time this spices has worked for the world audience :), everyone liked its tast :), offcourse its very good. Specially the kid jamal - he is really natural and looks very innocent :)

Apart from this , a debating question is - if its shows a bad picture of Bombai in World ? Well that is a part of mumbai and we need to accept it. If we are really so much concerned, we should try to correct it !

However i am not sure why foreigners always like bad part of India :) ?? There is good part also. example - like me - but no body likes me. Ok leave it ! I think Lagan is equally par or not less then SlumDog but it didnt won the OSCAR ?? Alos tarey zameen per - a very original story initself and its NOT at all a typical bollywood movie - where hero and heroine are dancing around trees :)

I think its a very good movie - u should go and watch it. If they give oscars , take it home otherwise its ok. I think for an artist prizes doesn't matter alot. He is happy that he has created something. His feeling of creation is same like when a mother gave a birth to a child. So whether some one likes her child or not, doesn't matter to a mother. For a mother her child is best :). Ok dont wana start another bollywood story.

Nice Hard Work by directors, nice acting by actors and everything is good !

Fighting and Clashes - Gaza and Srilanka

Its around 3 am of morning, and i am going through the BBC's RSS feed of News and then i realize that what the hell is going on in World ! :( , i think every individual has a thought about anything which happens around us so do i have. My thoughts may bring unnecessary criticism or unwanted comments in my so called usual like then i thought in any case people do comment sometimes at your back lets have a say and lets put your word on a topic which u think needs immediate attention by world. Well i think i need to write and so i am starting from here.

Well i am not a expert on Gaza nor on Sri Lankan Conflict. I am north indian which might bring wrath from some sector of pro tamil people (who really will not understand my intension or will not read this blog fully) but let it be. Why should i afraid of now when i know in my heart that everyone knows how to achieve peace and one day we all will realize this clashes or egoism is not going to satisfy anything and no body !

Here nor i am proposing anything nor i want to deliver a solution for something .. just a thought bcos i have a right to say something .... bcos even i also think about something ..and my opinion matters not sure whether world take it seriously or not !

I am analysing whats the cause and what can be a solution for that without killing innocent people.

What is conflict ? When our ideas or thinking don't match with others.

In case of Sri Lanka - LTTE thinks Sri Lankan Government don't give tamil people equal status or don't treat them equally.
In case of Gaza / Palestine - they think its their land occupied by Israel and Israel think differently.

Now if i would have taken a birth in a Gazan house my upbringing might have told me that i m being oppressed by Israeli people and if in a Israeli house something differently. Its our upbringing and what we are told form our birth ... we become like that ! [I would recommend a movie name dharamputra - made by Yash Chopra here. You will see the essence of what i am trying to say here ]

I am sure LTTE must have been formed with some reason, but to solve a problem there are many means by which it can be resolved. One way is through violence , lets kills them , lets have our terror and lets see who the hell comes next ? This is first action

Well then other party think what the hell my parents , my upbringing has told me - go to hell humanity .. i will not go directly to war myself but there are other fools who might be fooled and i can do that ...lets create such scape goats and will send them in return to first action and this is called reaction. [I remember shabani azmi criticing Delhi's jama masjid Head for calling muslim to go to war against US in Afghanistan- please dont say me anything it saw it on NDTV on Barkha Dutt show. She said Head should go first and why he is making fool of innocent people !]

Action and Reaction goes on ... no one wants to stop now bcos our ego has reached to some limit where people are watching us. Hey why should i be the first one to say let bygones be bygones, its enough , lets repent , no more fighting ..... lets talk , leave the path of non- violence and lets talk .

However in this scenarios i think Gandhian values come - path of non - violence. I used to think he is another freedom fighter who just somehow got this idea and fooled other people around him and then somehow we got independence ! Well but now i think he must be brave to accept it and follow that path of non violence to achieve something . In his case he achieved india's independence - I mean then INDIA - (consisting of at that time - India, Pakistan, Bangladesh).
[ Now please don't comment on No other people also played ok .. i agree with you all , however i am trying to make some other point not the importance of Gandhi but his path of non-violence]

Well now some people will say hey this india shit guy is somehow making propaganda and praising his India's Gandhi. Ok lets leave the Gandhi or India , you think about the principles on which his whole fighting was based. I think we do need such ways , tactics to resolve a conflict.

I am wondering why there is no single statement from Prabhakaran about civil tamil people ? Atleast as a gentlemen he must deliberately protect TAMIL civilians in North East part where there is intense fighting is going on by directly fighting with Government. At least then he will be more praised. Bcos in that way he is protecting tamil civilians for whom his all fighting is all about ! What i am trying to say is atleast he should not use civilians as human shield and in case he is not using them then before trying to fled or do some other action should talk to Government so that normal or common man who don't wana fight or just want to stay with his family and want to have a meal of 2 times, he should be saved. He must try his best to save the life of innocent tamil civil population and then we can really say he really think about a common tamil civilian of Sri Lanka.

Its very easy to use violent tactics or blame others however at the end of day our soul our self consciousness do tells us what is really wrong and what is really right. In case you mute it then no solution for that :)

Well i am not suggesting what Prabhakaran should do and what not ! I think if he would have taken a non violence way of making his point. No Tamil person would have been killed like this. However i would request Sri Lank an Government to think about innocent civilians and try to talk and persuade LTTE somehow - so that lives of civilians can be saved.

A mother whether she is Tamilian or Sinhalese or Israeli or Palestine they are mothers - mother can't see her child's dead body in front of her, whom she has kept for 9 months in her womb. As a individual when we can give life to anyone - we don't have right to takes anyone life. If you think you want to do something and you think differently. Please come openly and then say about it, let see how many people join you . Even if no one joins then walk alone however only on the path of non violence way. Bcos in this way u r not endangering anyone else life. World will know you , will recognize your values if not today may be tomorrow.

Similarly i would request Hamas people to take a path of non violent and then approach Israel, this action - reaction game is not in interest of anyone. How come you can show your face to GOD with murder of so many innocents people. If Isreali are responsible for killing Gazan people and i would say some provoking group within Palestine or Gaza must have some role to play otherwise no one is mad just to bombarding of a place. Here i am not favoring Israel nor Sri Lank an Government, what i am trying to say is there is a solution to every problem by talk , by non - violence. We have seen in the case of Indian Independence. Please note every life and individual is important and lets not be responsible for killing of your own brother sister. Its easy to blame opponents but its more difficult to see whether we are also responsible in that somehow?

So i think fighting parties should leave the violent path and should try to achieve their demans by non-violence way which is in good for everyone. Its upto you to think wisely or not or to accept what is true. However i believe we need to accept the truth either today or tomorrow !
