Shushma Swaraj is a far better option than Narendra Modi

As the stage is set, and the whole India is agog with the news of the anointment of the business savvy, and arrogant, and pro-values, and pro-rituals, and pro-religious(Shush!), and pro-poor(again Shush!!), and charismatic, and pro-bureaucracy(yet again Shush! as 8 IAS/IPSs are languishing in jail for executing his schemes), and the person responsible to initiate the disintegration of the National Democratic Alliance(NDA), Indians are set to witness the media's lunacy in going after the praise of the celestial personality Mr. Modi has--with the reports of his astuteness, and celestial capabilities. But, more interesting will be the Congress' remarks in view of any such decisions, if any, taken by the BJP--the rest(the imposter secular parties) will be of no concern, as they will be having  fits, fits and fits after hearing his anointment.

Another person(party's president) who was responsible for the subduing of  the party in Jharkhand and Uttar Preadesh by degrees--with his shrewdness-- where the BJP is still heaving heavily to become a force again to reckon with, and is standing seemingly on a quagmire-- is in his elements again to wreck havoc on the party hierarchy this time. Come Friday, and the djinn will be out. And out will be the patriarch and the hopes of Crores of Indians also, of the dream of a BJP regime at the center again.

India has witnessed his astuteness and statesmanship and charisma in Karnataka. If he had had that charisma then, he would have turned the tables around for the party. But, alas! who will tell the mesmerized party-men not to be in a hurry in declaring him for the top job, if the party manages to lead any chimerical alliance. For, it will require the most daunting task of forging an alliance with the parties not only from south, but east and west also. And all of them are more or less dependent on the votes from other communities to make their tally worthy of any alliance. So, let them believe and realize this truth first. And if BJP is determined to give the party a younger look, why not opt for Mrs. Shushma Swaraj which is a more acceptable face, in forging, or hammering , or molding an alliance? And she does not hold any allegation as Mr. Modi has to his credit. She will be a better choice for not only the party, but, India also. She is a noted advocate, and was the Chief Minister of Delhi. Her sojourn at the helms in Delhi could not be blamed for the party's unableness in coming back to power, but the decimation of the Khuranas is to blamed more than her abilities. Don't forget that she bravely fought the Bellary seat with the current Congress president giving him a good fight.

What message with the recent dramatics in Chhattisgarh, he intended to propagate is still beyond my head. It was meant to make mockery of the opposition or yourself? whatever be the intention, it only presages an unthinkable time ahead, if he makes it to the top post. 

I rue the fact that although being a BJP activist, my voices won't be heard. But, i will be subdued by degrees, if the decision to anoint Mr. Modi is taken in a haste, neglecting the points told above. As Sushma's name is not only sufficient to contain or shush the opponents by degrees, but it has the requisite cohesiveness also, to coalesce an alignment at the time of need, and avoid the life-threatening name for the existence of the NDA of the former. BJP think-tank(if there is any at the present) should think before omitting this option. But, the history had had some space for penance and it has has the benevolence of accommodating the repentants also. What would Advani be thinking, if his coronation happens, well,----is a different story.

World badly needs your camaraderie Mr. Presidents, not animosity

The repercussions of the limited attack (or full-fledged war) on Syria will be far-reaching. Some economies have started dilapidating--under the fear of its inevitability and US obstinacy in solving it--and some are on the verge of it. The US' way to contain the sectarian violence although may seem congenial , but now it is becoming crystal clear that it is a war of interest in the guise of saving humanity. And that interest lies between Russia and United States. Now the whole world knows that the arms and ammunition ,Syria has, or its adversaries have, are either provided by Russia or the Al-Qaeda network. And who gave birth to Al-Qaeda is not a secret to the world now, and for what ? is also not a rocket science to anyone.What is the interest then ?

The interest lies in the trade and business these countries have with this stepping-stone country to Asia and Africa. And we are destined to witness another conflict of interest in the guise of saving humanity very shortly, untill some measures are taken by the UN,or the USA, or Russia, or the G5 or the G20, to avoid it. And some solution have crept in recently. The one being, handing over the chemical weaponry to the UN(read USA). And the eagerness shown by the Syrian government is a testimony to its fear of war and aftermath. Thanks to USA's stubbornness of taking action against the perpetrators of chemical weapons, which is fruiting now, as the Syrian government have given a passage to a possible solution.

If the concern raised by US president is genuine, then it lauds appreciation to the highest degree. Till now he has shown his astuteness in handling such conflicts , and it has earned him respect the world over--which will be at stake once he decides to attack the devastated country--unlimited or limited. After Gorbachev's fall out in the '90s, the world has witnessed the uni-polar polarization--defying the magnetic theory-- and US single handedly has ruled the roost since then. But, what defies logic is its concern for humanity in toto.

Let's hope that the God will bestow his blessings on earth by giving impetus to the guardians of the world--the witticism-- to handle the Syrian issue with courage, care and amicability. And one obvious solution which has surfaced recently must be grabbed with both hands--to save the humanity, business,economies and the interests. But, the restoration of democracy there, will be more stupendous work than decimating the chemical weapons. And the whole world is sanguinely watching/beseeching US and Russian presidents and their European counterparts for a better diplomatic solution, not war.

Happy enduring then !

 

 

No sooner the elections are over--of course the 'Cereal Government'(the wedding of opportunities) formation also-- than the unexpected changes will occur and everything will fall in place in India. Market, Economy, Rupee, Communal harmony, Growth, Inflation, Faiths, Media's integrity, and appeasement etc., everything will be restored and tamed by degrees, but treachery and graft. Till then, Indians must have had the endurance and patience and this property also by degrees. Happy enduring then !

 

Legalize 'corruption'

Now its time to legalize the corruption in politics, to put a full stop on the brouhaha being made in the media and in the minds of the masses ultimately. And why only politics ? allow/legalize it in every facets of life, so that we can move further and leave others far more behind..........(मीलों हमें जाना है ). Let there be as much corruption as corruption can be and give the opportunity to AAP members to make the best use of their feet from the world of politics- and give a sigh of relief to the ruling regime. The message given to the world by legalizing it, will again attest the supremacy, leadership, pioneers and boldness, once India had had some 2000 years ago.

Sweden stands scores far, from the rest of the world, when corruption is concerned, and so is Vetican City, as no such cases they have had till date. But, this rampaging monster 'corruption' has set its foot in the majority of the countries of the world and robbing the humans of the very quality of probity and integrity. But, the humans can't be freed from the greed. Even Adam was not spared, for then, the history of homo-sepians would have taken a different course.

Sleeping and residing with a girl without marrying her was the 'Call of the Wild' some 20 years before, but its 'Pride sans prejudice' now, as the world is now experimenting with the live-in relationships with more repercussions than godliness reported from the world over. So, was the betting 2-3 years ago, but ECB has taken the bold step of legalizing it. Sodomy(read homo-sexuality) has been legalized in few countries, and lots more countries are to follow suit very soon. We were told to look after our old parents, but there would not have been the old-age homes. There are a lots more in this account to talk about . But, until we will come out from the catechisms of the religions,-or the set standards of it- we will see these conflicts in our mind as a heresy or a sin or a deviation from the set standards. Time is changing, and so our conceptions. And its time now to change to suit the present-and forget the past, for someone has rightly said-" Change is eternal". So, let's legitimize the activities which are causing blizzards in our minds. And be thankful to the 'God' for giving the opportunity to live and dwell on the only palnet of the Solar system known to support lives.

 There have been instances in the past, but are minuscule to be counted on the fingers, who didn't were corrupted in any realms or vicissitudes of life. So, why not pitch for a more corrupt world, and let the countries be as corrupt as corruption can be. Because groping and reaching at the nadir will again give the hope of vying for a new zenith-- a new world-- with all the honesty, benevolence and humanism in its place once again.

Time will tell

Rupee’s slowdown, if was due to your predecessor in finance ministry and the ex RBI chief, then you must have had rescinded some of their measures,  as soon as you were given the reins of the national coffers. But, God forgive! All the assiduity then was to have the edge, the game changer, and putting the veil on the various bilges in the governance. And we have the result. The Syrian conflict is only augmenting your agony. But sir, your tougher measures will bear the fruits for you  or the  sumptuous bills or the created unrest in the name of statehood or the mayhem against the God man ,  or assuaging the UP’s M & M duo for your survival or  the impotency of the opposition, only the time can, and will tell.

Bah !

Governments have governed before and governments would govern again:but no government had ever governed, might, could, would or should ever govern, as he has governed India. Yes, Indians are exulting in the myriad of fancy bills he has given in ten years, but the deadly confidence of his/her return is somewhat more frightening than a nightmare in the offing, for, the nightmares are transient, but, the next five year's mayhem(with the plethora of scams, torrential inflation, rupee rolling down a frictionless slant surface, and cornucopia of bills) will be durable and unendurable as well.

State of affairs-'Bleak'

Now the Food Security Bill, now division of Andhra Pradesh issue, now the Gorkhaland issue, now the Modi issue, now the Durga Nagpal case, now the Vidarbha statehood demand, now the Kistwaar issue, now the Haryana land row, now the domicile issue in Jharkhand, now Modi’s five rupees participation fee fiasco, now the 2002 Gujrat riot case, now the Nawada riots, now the Kerla’s unrest over Oman Chandi’s resignation demand, now the Id jubilations, now the Shikhar’s achievement, now the Pakistan army's unprovoked shelling in Punchh sector to spoil the normalcy bid, now the SC verdict on disqualification of accused leaders, now the centre moving to the SC for a reconsideration petition on disqualification issue, now the national parties coming into the RTI’s perimeter, now all parties colluding to thwart the Central Vigilance Commissioner’s verdict, now the Onion’s burgeoning price, now the Mayawati’s acquittal in disproportionate asset case, now Mulam Singh Yadav and Congress engaged in ill-treating each other, in all these now and then the core issue of corruption, scams and inflation is lost now and the Indian masses is hypnotized about forgetting the misdeeds of the current government and media is agog with these news and are feeling the heat of a reporter shortage to cover up all the issues, hence, pitch is ready for a fresh start for the incumbent government, before going to the hustings again, glad with their success, in burying the core issues.Incidents seem incendiary more and self initiated less. But, amid these trying times, order will fall in place with serenity, once the Monsoon session of parliament is over.

Indecisiveness or reluctance ?

One Snowden may cause the postponement of the proposed talks between USA and Russian presidents, but the killing of five soldiers leaves Indian government undeterred in its resolve, to give a go ahead of the proposed talks between  the premiers of the two nations in September ’13.

It lands me in great suspicion and grief that why the army in Punch sector was not asked to retaliate. And if they have been, why not enough support was there? Does the present government wants to safeguard its boarders in this manner?.  It seems that they have tied the goats (not soldiers) in front of lions and dragons, to shed the crocodilian tears later? Whether this is a failure of Indian intelligence, or the surveillance system, or the government’s stand and directives, or of all, is still unclear. And Indian government should not leave any stone unturned in strengthening the systems involved in safeguarding the Indian territories (with clear directives to the forces), so that the moral of the army does not go down, for the army as well as the hoi polloi is sulking and may erupt anytime. The eruption of the later will be seen shortly, but of the former remains uncertain in mode, method and magnitude.

Right from its creation, the army alone had ruled the roost of Pakistan, and the political establishment there had had their hand cuffed on critical issues, especially concerning the better political and economical ties with India.

The change of the guard in Pakistan heralded the renewed avidness and warmth in invigorating the bilateral ties with India; vociferously advocated by Mr. Nawaaz Sharif in his election rallies and overwhelming support he got in decisive Panjab province. But, alas! Even after 66 years Pak-army continues to play the role it had had played, since its inception. There is a huge rift between the army and political establishment, and Pakistani political honchos are free to take decisions on critical issues concerning neighbours, but India.

The mere thought of normalising ties with India sends adrenaline in the nerves of the Pak-army, as if their existence were at stake, and it never looses any opportunity in decimating such prospects, and hence promptly foils any such projects, in guise of, and in connivance with, the terrorists. The terrorists owe their existence in Pakistan to the army’s patronage there and hence give shapes to their designs as and when directed or called for.

It is calamitous that when the two nations are trying it hard to come to the negotiating table and giving a fillip to the bilateral ties, the Pak-army is playing a spoil-sports to their efforts. Although Mr. Sharif have won the political battle, but the biggest challenge he faces now is, to come to terms with the army there. And until he overcomes this challenge, his intentions of a better relations with India will remain biting the dust and chimerical for ever, ever and ever.

Style statement or business?

Showing cleavages, or the full nude back, or the lingerie, if is a style statement, then why not go for naturism?-which is more erotic and sensual.

Recently two English style-divas were in India to teach Indians, how to dress sensibly? I object to the word sensibly, it being misnomer in Indian context. They are doing the business together science 1994 and are very successful in teaching the Englishmen how to dress sensibly. They are here to advertise their prospects of new markets and ultimately profits. For, they will be left on the testing grounds if monetary benefits are not associated. Can they go to the middle or west Asia and teach them this sensibility. I doubt, for, they will be ostracised immediately after their arrival there and bite the dust, and it will be a ‘Hornet’s Nest’ for them, if they will try their new ventures there.

George Bernard Shaw’s famous statement that-“all women are equally beautiful in the darkness of night” should by brought into this discussion. Wasn’t the prolific writer right, in exclaiming the equality? He was equivocal on the equality of beauty too. Although, it may have caused an ‘end of road’, for the various beauty pageant contests.

Indian attire-‘Sari’ still boasts of being the most sensual women’s wear worldwide, and it competes with the best in the business. But there is no transparent show of nudity in this attire.

They claim to have taught us the wear-sense, but, is it so? In my opinion they have invented plethora of designs to give the women more womanish looks and scores of options to choose from, for more exposures. Aren’t the so called stylists are culprit of evoking lust in men, and more victims of sexual abuse in the countries like India by the surprise rise in the hot-couture?

But, there is another aspect of this subject too.

Time, aided by the burgeoning world wide web-‘the internet’- has brought the change at a greater speed than expected. And a huge economy depends upon the new traditions-or clothing sense. We are richer by the options, and poorer by the total covering area by these cloths now. Before, the mantilla (the dupatta) acted as a firewall against the hawkish onlookers? - Thus thwarting a looming wickedness. Now the whole contour of the body are on the show, - and thus open to invites for an onslaught- without any such clothing. But, ask any poor in India (about 50% of the total population) about this change and hot- couture. And the answer will be-“we anyhow cover our body, why to think for the costumes when our stomach is empty most of the time”?

India still beholds its traditions to its heart immensely. And is at the centre of its socio-political establishment with the varying culture and traditions. There is a fashionable class vying for these changes, but there are the obstinate people too, against this change. Let them do their business and flourish, and we behold our traditions changing with a slower speed, with the firewall ‘ON’, as the pinnacle of this dressing sense and modification will be-‘nudity’. Which off course, we do not wish to see too soon, and, in open.

This is politics folks

And the whole India is more or less in an utter chaos. This is a calculated move-a master stroke of the savage lovers- by the incumbent policy makers to throw the whole nation in this state of complete pandemonium.

The movements or demands for separate states from all parts of India are pouring and the elite group who were at the verge of an inevitable exit under the storm of one person and the plethora of scams, are relieved now, for, the various scams unearthed under the current regime,-which was of serious concern for the current regime-has taken the backstage on the minds of Indian voters. They have forgotten every thing now, it seems, and only the demands of a separate state are seen flooded in the media, which is perceived as the mirror image of the agony and concern of the common man.

The think-tank has done its job and is relaxing a bit and happy by the developments, as the storm and the scams which were haunting them for a long time has sincerely been put off.

The disruptions in the far east, the agitation at the central part, the hubbub in the south, all are not ephemeral but all these commotions will die out only after the elections are over. But they will leave a deep scar on the heart of mother India. And the media is acting as an inciting agent-a catalyst- by giving the wide coverage of these agitations.

Another highly politicized issue is that of an I.A.S. officer’s suspension. Facebook has confirmed its decisive presence and importance in India also, and will play a vital role in next elections, -as it has done in the west Asia-this can be extrapolated-by the blowing out of proportion and aftermath- of this issue on it.

The parties involved in this case are prolonging this case for their own gains. Under the carpet there are proceedings going on for the time’s purchase to come out of the precarious situation and a best deal. Food Security Bill will certainly see the light of the day, this is for sure-I had had this notion from the past experience. All the altercations going on are only to fool the public. Initially they will pose a threat and at the crucial moment of voting they will support the bill, in the pretense of poor-friendly. This is politics after all folks.

The tax behemoth and the cover fire

When the British Empire imposed the salt tax in India, it created the greatest upheaval in Indian masses and Mahatma Gandhi along with his supporters, marched to Dandy to break this rule. This march was a great hit, and acted as an intensifier in India’s quest for freedom. On 26^th January 1930, Indian National Congress declared ‘Purna Swaraj’,-the complete Independence- and within the next seventeen years we saw the birth of the twins.

In today’s India, the cornucopia of taxes includes the direct and Indirect Taxes. Indian Citizens are paying Income Tax, Value Added tax, Professional Tax, Wealth tax, Service tax, Excise Duty, Custom Duty, Road Tax on vehicles, Entertainment Tax, Stamp Duty, Education Cess, Goods and Service Tax, to name a few.

Our current President and Ex finance minister in his budget speech in 2011 have mooted the need of unification of various taxes, with a gradual decrease in the amount of taxes, a person pays. But in 2012 he became the President of India and who went in isolation; the unification issue or the then finance minister, is anybody’s guess.

India ranks in top 50 of the most corrupted countries list. If anyone becomes a member of legislative assembly or parliament or is given any ministry, then his income rises abruptly. In 1986, the then Prime minister has admitted 86% loot in public accounts. And in 2013, what is the % of loot is again anybody’s guess.

Even the national highways in some states make mockery of the development claims of the government. Fiddling in the basic amenities is rampant above expectations. But, the government’s reluctance in solving or channelizing or upkeep of the existing amenities and policies is more painful. And why they will do this, when most of their energy is being wasted in their survival?- and the cover fire in rescuing the culprits(throwing the country in a state of uncertainty and chaos may be assumed to be the cover fire for the various scams).

Fear psychosis in fading fortunes

The latest nodding by the ruling party’s supreme committee ‘CWC’, for the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh validates the statement-‘the politics is about survival first and repercussions later’. The fading fortunes of the ruling party-as reported by various authentic agencies-is not only causing fear psychosis in the ruling regime, but also inducing it to unleash the survival strategies in hurry- and this being one of them.

Yet another survey carried by Times Now-Cvoter opinion poll has added to their woes. In order to minimize the incumbency factor-which will certainly affect their comeback chances- they are opting for the tested theory of wooing the poor voters, by showing them the dreams of a new horizon or meadow of sustenance and prosperity.
                We have seen the 'Laptop lollipop' being decisive and turning the fortunes of Smajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh with its landslide victory. Whether the same magic and effect the 'Bifurcation', the Food Security and the 'Mobiles' will create or not remains to be seen, but they certainly have the potential to change the mood of the voters.

One thing i can tell emphatically that this regime has a very little concern about the education system. Otherwise they would not have implied the multi-tasking concept in schools-where they have tried really very hard in converting the centers of education into a mess. The increasing number of victims due to this pet-project nationwide, only testifies its total failure.

They are not ignorant of the fact, that, they have failed on various fronts, and hence they are vying for the new grounds or coalitions. The whip they have given to the common man, is now menacingly falling upon themselves, with severe infliction,  it seems. And the fear of opening of the colossal-gate of corruption if they lose the coming elections is what causing their hurry and flurry.

We have seen the fate of self-acclaimed ‘India Shining’ campaign in 2004, and the division and the Food security may meet the same fate, can’t be denied.

   In our childhood we have heard the story of the ass. It gets healthier in summer-when there is less or no greenery-and slimmer in monsoon and winter-when there is so much greenery. In summer, it is said that when it turns back and sees all the greenery gone, gives it much pleasure and hence the good health-and monsoon and winter giving it the gloomy thought of not grazing anything. The parallel between the story and the current regime can be outlined now. They are in the summer season now and hence their modus operandi is centred around the thought of getting healthier by self-effacing new policies as far as they can and becoming a behemoth and a no match for the opposition.

                              You have done enough damage in ten years. Your statement -‘this inflation is ephemeral ‘ has bitten the dust every time. But, you were able to change the mind-set of the people by letting them believe that ‘inflation’ and ‘corruption’ are the integral part of governance, and for this- plaudits to your punditry!

The similar demands from other parts of the country, will now soot up with a renewed vigour. And in that storm all your mis-deeds or ‘Gates’ will be blown away, paving the way for an ubiquitous nationwide  unrest and a favourable atmosphere for your return. The timing of the declaration, for the bifurcation, induces suspicion, to your intention. And the Hindi proverb “the lamp flickers vigorously before going off”-remains to be proved, and its my earnest request to you-please don’t leave any stone unturned in proving this proverb also.
