Romancing the Separatists....

Saffron or Black? Which colour does the centre associate with the word terrorism? Firstly, our witty home minister goes on record to warn against so called 'Saffron Terrorism' and then the cover up act sees a statement that terrorism is black. Wow! How do these guys interpret colours or rather are you colour blind Mr. Chidambaram? Terrorism is Terrorism and speaking your language, it is painted Green in and Green out as far as the reality is concerned.

Cant you see the green Pakistani flags flying in Kashmir? Cant you see the red blood which our martyrs sacrificed? Cant you see the tricolour being burnt on its streets? Do you even remember the lives lost in tragic anti-national attacks over the years? Maybe the air conditioned cabin insulates you from the pain felt by the nation!

Check out your colours Mr. Chidambaram for you are getting this whole issue wrong. Oh, I am sorry I should not say wrong. You are a highly qualified individual with complete understanding of the issue. The problem is you lack the courage and will and the true love needed to fight these challenges. Rather than fighting the true threat of terrorism you are painting an image of falsehood and sowing the seeds of divide by coining the term saffron terrorism!

Besting Desperation....

10 days does seem as a very long time to be down and out. I really admire the subtle reminders of nature not to get too carried away with the notion that humans are above all. I was grounded by very high fever and severe weakness for the past week and I have been itching to write about the 300% increment in the MPs’ salaries!

There has been certain amount of negative sentiment flowing regarding the issue and I suppose it will be great to address it and ponder on this recent development. Checking out the pro’s and con’s, obviously our dear representatives would earn a lot more. They will earn a decent amount of white money to run their houses!

At War for Hindustaan....

Well, it is 11:55 pm right now when I type the first words of this blog and 5 minutes later we will see a 63 year old free nation. Is it free?

I returned home at 930 pm today having attended a fantastic lecture, organized by the RSS pertaining to the topic of partition of the nation and vision for Akhanda Bhaarat delivered by Mr. Nitin Apte, an energised and passionate orator and Swatantryaveer Savarkar "Bhakta". I salute this patriot for what he is!
He gave a beautiful simile; he said, "A dead body on the pyre makes a small sound which we associate with burning even if it is dead. We like the living dead, refuse to protest and act against injustice. Not even the slightest of sounds are uttered by us. How ironic it is?!!"

Reloading Renaissance....

Sensing anguish and frustration among some of my countrymen around me and many more in Bhaarat over the Caste Census and related reservation issues I felt it probably might be the right time to express my views and invite your comments on it.

Some of our Truth Team members are on the cusp of their college life and as if the fiasco surrounding the FYJC admissions was not enough to tick them off, the reservation issue has denied them a chance to acquire knowledge from the colleges of their choice. The 19^th century years when a social revolution took place against caste discrimination when equality was the mantra and the days today where the mask of equality is donned to hide the ugly face of caste preferences, what a stark contrast!

Just yesterday I attended a fantastic lecture by noted historian Mr. Mohan Shete on the topic “Akhanda Bhaarat” organized by Ignited Minds Movement and the division of Bhaarat along communal and caste lines was a significant part of this lecture.

The Rise and Rise of Gujarat....

“It is ironic that to be a true patriot one has to be the enemy of the rest of mankind”

It really is ironic that the CBI (read Congress' Bureau of Investigation) is going after persons/organizations which are the real flag bearers of development and national patriotism.

Development in progress!! Red Alert!!

Prevent at all costs!!

That is maybe the warning signal and call for action within the Congress!

Instead of hunting and defeating anti-nationals they support it in the name of growth of the minority classes. Thus instead of benefiting these classes and helping them grow they are further weakening them. I feel sad that my countrymen, labelled the minorities are fooled by these tactics which are nothing but self centered in nature. This division is in place as we tend to classify each person socially. Why not all of us be Bhaaratiyas?

Playing Games from the Common's Wealth....

Chaotic, that is the word which comes to my mind after reading those reports about the CWG over the past few days. The management is in disarray. Infrastructure is lagging, the preparation is too. Whether the games are going to be conducted if this haphazardness continues is still an important question. It is the quick buck which matters irrespective whether it comes at a heavy price of the nation losing face in front of the international sports community.

Shoddy and doctored deals and reports with the cash transactions indicating a highly inflated purchasing price and then the chairman of the organizing committee fakes a few emails and does a crude cut-paste in his defence of this unethical dealing and lo, behold, we have a new scam to enjoy during the morning tea and talk about during those ever important group discussions in colleges, at work or elsewhere!

I suppose Mani Shankar Aiyar’s wish of the games being unsuccessful is on its way to fulfillment.
