Ooh la la law!! X(

Democracy is our nation’s strength and sometimes I feel it as a weakness as well. 10 terrorists came into the city and killed several people which the world knows. One terrorist is caught alive and he is interrogated. I guess he should only be interrogated. Why does the court need to give him a lawyer? Is the court trying to give him a chance of fleeing free which is not going to happen!! What is the motive behind booking some 300+ cases against one single terrorist and appointing a lawyer for him? There is a cost attached to all these court proceedings. He should be interrogated and his back links should be found on intelligence basis but I feel its waste of time and huge money in bringing him to court when the whole world knows he is a terrorist.

The above is an external affair problem and below is an internal affair.

Elections are in pace. I know for sure there is going to be no change after the election whichever party holds the cabinet. As a voter I see all the candidates as invalid and I decide not to vote. But there are a lot of chances that my vote will be misused. Thank god, I found out the section 49-O in the Conduct of Election rules. I have a right not to cast my vote which means I don’t need to vote for any candidate. It’s like me boycotting the election. It’s not going to affect the winning chances of the candidate but by this my vote can’t be misused. I felt happy about the law in place until I read about a loop hole in it.

The section says – “If an elector, after his electoral roll number has been duly entered in the register of voters in Form-17A 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.” which means the anonymity of the voter is lost which is against the procedure of voting behind the ballot box and hence the rule cannot be used by any voter wishing to live peacefully.

Moreover, the EVMs don’t have the option of “None” or “Not applicable” which again forces the voter to vote on some candidates of no caliber. Its like wherever there is a provision of law there is provision of a loop hole as well. Our law sings to the every citizen's tune.

Elections 2009

A fine morning, after reading the headlines, I asked a friend “Do you know Sarath Babu”. He replied “Ya ya, the one who acted with Rajinikanth. Ya I know him.”

I did not expect that reply or else I would have got prepared to face it. Then I told him about Sarath Babu. Sarath is from a very humble and poor family in Chennai. His mother sold idli’s door by door for his schooling. Sarath made it to BITS Pilani for his engineering degree and got placed in a software firm. Later he got into IIM-A for his management degree. He topped in the exams and offers poured in. But, he did not take them. He said “I want to be an entrepreneur and adding more he wanted to start a food chain inspired by his mother”. Touching story!

Now, Sarath is taking another step in his life. He is contesting for the Lok Sabha elections. Now wants to give it back to the society. He is an independent candidate from the South Chennai constituency contesting against the biggies.

I wonder in which film has the actor Sarath Babu played a role like this.

Btw, 2009 elections have transformed to be a national event with a day holiday for most of the citizens. Campaigns are at full swing in all means and forms of media. Why is this all for? Where is the change? are my questions. I could hear few voicing out "You be the change!". It makes sense while hearing and while reading the below statistics I feel "God save this place"




  • Total no. of Candidates with Criminal Records = 222 (i.e. 16% of 1425 candidates)


  • Most of the major political parties have fielded candidates with criminal records, with top four parties being INC (24), BJP(23), BSP(17) and SP(10)


  • Most states have candidates with criminal background contesting elections- Bihar is at the top with 51 candidates (or 26%)


  • There are 306 charges of heinous nature on the candidates which includes, murder, attempt to murder, kidnapping, extortion, etc.


  • Percentage of contesting crorepatis has increased from 9% in 2004 to 14% in 2009


  • 68% candidates have not furnished their PAN card details.


  • Number of women candidates is just 122(7%) as compared to 1593 of men(93%)

Mumbai meri jaan

I was recently reading an upbeat news article which will make us very proud. It was a dream coming true article which made feel proud and astonishing. The heading was "Mumbai to emerge as the global financial center". I was surprisingly shocked with a pessimist mood on how could this happen. Not that I don’t wish it to happen, but how could it happen and how will it be. Then scrolling down to the bottom of the article there were comments from fellow citizens. A copy/paste of that for you is below;

The article says "Mumbai is the best suited to emerge as a global financial center, especially because the domestic demand for sophisticated financial services is high," a finance ministry official, who asked not to be named told The Economic Times. After the formation of the new government, the ministry will take up 49 recommendations to restructure the current financial regulations. The popular proposals which are being speculated include encouraging innovation, introducing new products, removing segmentation of financial markets and strengthening corporate debt market.

Reader's comments (8)

1: How long did it take to build the Bandra-Worli sea link? About 25 years in the making...! How long will it take to remove Dharavi ...about 100 years+. Look, nobody is going to accept Mumbai as a World Financial Center unless it learns to present itself clean with good roads, communication, drainage plus other necessities such as Hong Kong. Our politicians will never let it happen.
2: Caution! Idiots at work :).
3: hmmm.. sounds just like the $10 laptop to me!

4: Wishful thinking. We don't yet have the infrastructure to support the current IT business we have. Indian govt seems to have no clue as to the kind of infrastructure demands a global financial center requires. It's a different story that India will come out stronger after the recession. That always happens with many countries except that this time around it may take a while for the US to come around stronger.
5: one more scam in the making

6: but before it happens i think all we will die due to poverty. but still happy feel proud of Indian

7: so, the opinion that India will emerge stronger after recession is coming true. hope the ministry succeeds.

8: Guys, we all know that India can turn into what we want it to be overnight. There needs to be a revolution and maybe this is the opportunity. When the politicians realize that anything they do will be reflected in how India is perceived by the World, they might bring in a radical change to their thought process. Let's hope for the best. This could be the first step towards India becoming the Super Power in the years to come (not too far, well before we die, for sure).

All the above comments represent an average citizen’s anguish and yearning to see a developed nation. It is not that we don’t have anything to make it. We have everything and it’s all getting eaten up by some crooks in between who are supposed to make it happen.

Heart – Made in India

I remember days where “Made in India” products were known for awful quality. Then after our current PM introduced LPG policy (It’s not the gas cylinder policy. It’s Liberalization, Privatization & Globalization) things turned around and the world started to look upon India for technology. Now, I guess its one another achievement for our country if this invention is going to be a success.

An artificial heart for Rs 1 lakh! Click on the link to read the story. It is definitely an laudable achievement. Kudos to the team for their vision and efforts!

The Monk who could be wrong

True love can never react so as to cause pain either to the lover or to the beloved. Suppose a man loves a woman; he wishes to have her all to himself and feels extremely jealous about her every movement; he wants her to sit near him, to stand near him, and to eat and move at his bidding. He is a slave to her and wishes to have her as his slave. That is not love; it is a kind of morbid affection of the slave, insinuating itself as love. It cannot be love, because it is painful; if she does not do what he wants, it brings him pain. With love there is no painful reaction. Love only brings a reaction of bliss. If it does not, it is not love. It is mistaking something else for love.

The above lines are not mine. They are from the patriotic monk Vivekananda. I have read many quotes on the same. These lines are simple in explanation and true to some extent. He further says “When you have succeeded in loving your husband, your wife, your children, the whole world, the universe, in such a manner that there is no painful reaction of pain or jealousy, no selfish feeling, then you are in a fit state to be unattached.

He means love detaches a person from the lively world. But, are we born to be detached? Mr. Monk, I wish I could debate this with you. We are born to live. Expectations, desire, pains and so on are humane nature. It may harm one but it depends on how we handle it. When you have someone loving you, it protects, nurtures, enables you to dream, achieve and do everything along with your partner. Looks like those lines are written out of love failure. He should have seen people around him behaving like how he has written.

Rather, I ponder, should love not have expectations? If two people are in a relationship and love for each other, should they be without expectations from each other?

I feel its all about understanding, sharing, caring and living for each other. You expect yourself to be understood by your partner and the same from the other side. You expect your partner to share, care, and love and live for you. The same levels of expectations are there from the other side as well. Love sustains when those expectations are met. Living for each other takes love to a greater stage and it wont happen when there is only taking in either side. From tiny daily issues to big long term plans there have to be adjustments with both of them.

Humans tend to lose themselves after only giving from their side and lose heart of not getting anything in return and all the negative aspects of love begin there. All these in a relationship need more patience and determination and when the passion to live exists all the odds fly like dust.

Down the lane

Had a mail from Yahoo in my Inbox today

Dear Yahoo! Briefcase user,
We will officially close Yahoo! Briefcase on March 30, 2009. Until then, we are offering you the opportunity to download your files back to your computer. You need to take action before we close, after which any files remaining on Yahoo! Briefcase will be deleted and no longer accessible.

I wondered what were there in my briefcase and as a precautionary step logged in to check out and there was the surprise and memories.

All the project documents during my management studies were stored. We had to do projects and internships as part of the curriculum. Few mates joined for internships which had a pay attached to it, few paid for projects and so on. I was recommended by a Professor to an Government organization. It did not bother me seriously when I heard about it as it was a Government organization. I was put to an interview with an IAS officer. It was told that there will be no pay during the internship. I agreed. I was briefed about the work and while coming out I was charged. I was so proud that I got that opportunity and did not want to miss boasting myself (why should i miss... the work done is my product) and did boast while presenting the project back in college with the below lines:

“We were designated as Management Trainees, but were treated as Management Consultants”
“We as Interns in this project do not give suggestions for improvements. This is an action plan for execution”

The college management and mates were watching with a “this guy is flying above in the cloud and is going to crash!” look.

I did not crash and rather I was taken much higher. I got involved in a real time big project which had the big names of the industry coming together.

Now, I recollect those memories. I had spoken in length and depth about this to most of my friends and the response I get from them is “Shut Up! You have told this umpteen times and don’t speak as if only you had done it in this world.” I would shut up for a while but again start it. I cannot put this into rest. LOL! These are not sweet memories to keep within., these are a great memories which charges me to go forward.

Yahoo had kindled these memories and writing this post. I am now transferring those files to Google Docs.

And the boasting will continue B-)

B Prize Cheat codes

Disclaimer:
The contents in this post are purely fictional and does not indicate any particular event or person or object. Any such incidents are purely coincidental and the author will not hold responsibility for some imaginary connective thinking. This post is a personal opinion and the author does not regret for the same.

Recently read 2 books which had won the very famous prize and sharing the tips to crack the prize. Yes, you can do it!!


  • 300+ pages is a must

  • Choose the place were you have born and brought up as the location of your novel. Remember only uneasy settings of your place and it has to get narrated diplomatically. (Very important!! Added adavantage if you and me are from the same country. Its a very lovable country.)

  • Don’t have less than 10 characters. Set all the characters intense with a gloomy background. Detail the main characters (3-4) one in each chapter sequentially and in the very next chapter narrate other characters together and in the very next chapter tie the characters each other with a tragic twist.

  • For sure, you will remember your 2-3 bad experiences of yours or your neighbors. Thread them to the narration.

  • Hire a Prof. English literature from a well known university to make sure a literary flow and for "Foreword". Definitely include "Dedicated to", "Preface", "Plot" and whatever 2-3 liner pages you like to have.

  • You could also take a story from a very old movie in the world. Yeah, there are 7 continents (Don't know if i am wrong!). Or there could be no story also. Just chain of events with a big bang end will do.

As usual, reader's improvement and additions to the list are welcome.

A thought to think!

There are hundred thoughts to think upon. One of them is below;

I witnessed two events this weekend which involved thousands of people gathering together. In one event, people were detaching themselves from what they truly were and in another (different set); they showcased their might & courage.

The first event was in a mythological place / a shrine where people thronged and were shouting slogans/prayers in praise of the Almighty. What they were exactly doing was that they were surrendering themselves to God asking him to handle their lives and asking him for favors. In the process there were chaos and fights in the crowd on who will enter the shrine first.

The second event was in New Delhi, the capital of India. It was the Republic Day parade in Rajpath. It had in its soil the great soldiers and citizens of the country. People in organized groups with sheer discipline and precision timing, showcased their might assuring themselves that they collectively will serve the country. The mighty weapons of the country, the rich culture of the multilingual states, the efforts of people in saving the country, were displayed, remembered & recognized. It was altogether a “We Can & We will” attitude showcased in the event which made feel proud & confident about the future in this country.

Now, both the events had people gathered together. In the both the events people were from the same country. The first event had people of one single religion at one place and the second event had people from different religions coming together for the interest of the nation. It is said that when people gather and pray, God gets delighted and grants their wishes. Sounds good and makes me to participate in it too. But, I would rather prefer to know my strengths and work in leveraging it to myself and the people around, because, it is also said that God prefers and helps people more who help themselves by putting in their best efforts for themselves and others as well.

Now, which one do you prefer to do?

Annanukku Jai, Kaalayanukku Jai!!

Jallikattu is an occasion celebrated in south Tamilnadu showcasing the bravery in men. No intro is required for this bull sport. If you don’t know what it is pls contact Mr. Wikipedia / Mr. Google.

Government and also animal welfare board are trying to ban this game as they are concerned about the bull. The typical Jallikattu bulls are endangered species now. People would fear to go near it even during normal time. The bull is made run in a huge crowd with gold, money and other things tied to its horns. The man who stops and tames the bull gets the prize. Sounds easy ah!! Check out the pic below;

Check out the other pic. This one is shot recently. I had tamed this bull 15 years back. Yes believe me…15 years back while I was a kid I had tamed this bull!!! I was a kid and the bull was a calf :))

People

We sometimes encounter people, perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken.
--Fydor Dostoevsky

This post is about the people who have made me amaze, puzzle in the past few days. They are from different walks of life and different age groups.

First is this boy in his 10 or 12 yrs. This boy is a chai vendor near my client’s office in Mahalaxmi. I go everyday to have a cup of special chai from this guy and watch him closely. This boy shows a sense of maturity in handling the business (yeah...chai vending is also a business and this boy is also an entrepreneur). He is in his early stages of life and I wonder what at this stage of life made him not to go school and pursue his business*. I have seen a bunch of kids on work but so far none have puzzled me like this. This guy has a style in his work, has a never tiring face and greets everyone with the same energy level. Haan Sir…Boliye This guy gives me energy to look out life in a positive way. Kudos to this young chap! He is one of my inspirations.

The next is a granny. I saw this granny in Andheri railway station once. Her skin was so loose, spine bent and she was wearing a gown like a kid girl. For sure she would be in her second half of 80’s. There was no one along with her to accompany. The moment I saw her, my eyes were looking at who had accompanied her! Andheri railway station at the morning hours is jam-packed and people push each other to move forward. Granny was sitting in the platform. A train arrived and I was all gasps on she is going to get pushed. Amazingly, she managed herself and went along in the crowd. She is very old that people at her age couldn’t even mange to stand for some time. This granny had a clear vision too** without specs and at her 80’s with no one accompanying her; she was energetic and had managed on her own to commute. I wonder how she would have led her life such that she has the courage at this age to manage on her own. Granny…You rock, you are a rock star!!!

Next is a man in his 50’s. With gentleman dressing, looking very tired, walking like a patient and coughing at regular intervals, I have seen him a couple of times sitting across me in the train***. He has the marks of an ex-serviceman. He carries around 5-6 newspapers and untied assorted flowers in hand. I have only seen those type flowers tied as garland. Once he is seated, he starts with the TOI and falls asleep soon. He appears as a tired person and I start thinking that he has worked very hard through his life for his loved ones and failed to be understood. Or may be those flowers are for a missed loved one or may be to be offered to some deity. All these are my thoughts when I see this gentleman. My thoughts never go out of these and immediately it takes me to my memories. This gentleman makes me think about life in the mornings I see him.

I once saw this person while on my way to Andheri station. He had nothing below his body beyond his thighs. What he had was only his upper part of the body! He crawls on the floor with support from hands and his half cut thigh is dragged along in the floor. Life can’t be cruel like this to a human being. Whatever evil he has done, this is a cruel punishment in his life. I would prefer to die rather than living than this. Yet, this person was doing an honorable job. He was cleaning the floor with paper dusts left by the commuters in the ticket counter and receives money if somebody gives him. He doesn’t sit idle and beg for money. He cleans the place which we use and receives money for living. He is not only a good citizen but also makes me believe that life can be lived however it may be to you.

There are so many like these people whom I meet in my daily lives who encourage and instill the confidence of life. It’s the other side of the world which has a mix of positive and also negative things. Life is all about how we live along with it!

*On the other hand, it’s not a must to study to run a business and not all who are educated are intelligent too. Most of them are cracks and I too fall in that category.
**Health is obviously wealth especially when you are old. I wish to be independent like this granny with good health not bothering anyone during my last years.
***There are regular passengers who rush in the empty train to sit in their regular seats. I have my regular seat tooB-)

Mumbai Train Travel Myth & Cheat Codes

Season Ticket
Always see to that +2 stations are covered from your actual departure and destination stations. Most often the crowd will permit you to get down in the next station only.

Time
Always reach 30 mins earlier to the station. You will not get into the very first train that comes in the platform.

Fast Train
If fast train does not halt at your destination station and halts in the next station, go to that halting station and travel back. There is no harm in it.

First Class / Second Class
It’s a myth that First class is better than second Class. The number of first class coaches is only 2 or 3 in a 12 coach train. By permutation and combination they get crowded more than the second class.

Learn gymnastics
There is balcony travel in both fast and local trains. Soon there will be special tickets issued for that too. You got to wear electric proof clothes for that. Government will soon consider opening up FDI for the same.

More cheat codes are welcome.

Living with Terror

Mumbai siege has shaken the entire nation for sure. Living in this city for the past 1 year this is my first encounter with terrorism. People who had felt that they have an undying spirit to face terrorism or natural calamities like rains like in 2006 are fed up now. The own sons of the soil feel tired of living. At an individual level every one wants to live a peaceful life with their family and that lies their priority on top of their emotion for the place they live in.

Coming back to the situation in Mumbai, its seriously shocking to know that the terrorists have entered into the city from a point which is the tip and considered as gateway of the nation and there was literally no security set up in that place.

The tip of the city is at buzz with media reporting the action live from the ground. This is a different type of attack and a shocking one too for the citizens of the state. In simple words there was complete unrest for the people of the city since the incident occurred.

While writing this I recollect what Barkha Dutt of NDTV was told yesterday while she was reporting live. The statement was “This is usual in Kashmir. We see it daily over there.” and may be this happening for the first time in this city had given us a shock in the spine.

That statement is true and Kashmir witnesses these everyday where battle go on for 3 to 4 days. So what is the solution to curb these or at least face these with minimum damage? The terrorists are said to be highly motivated that they have come only to damage and they very well aware of losing their lives. Where does that motivation come from for them? Who had trained them?

When 2 terrorists with weapons are visible, 100-200 of them frighten and run for cover. Even the one with a low range weapon runs and weeps rather than fighting with what he has. Seeing those commandos in action I remember my training days with the TN army battalion unit and I felt if a SLR / LMG or a Sten is given I would have gone in the field live. Now that confidence in me comes from the training I have had and that’s what is I feel has to leveraged to every individual.

All schools and colleges should have NCC as part of their curriculum. Basic weapon training should be given like the first aid training. It becomes necessary for at least a city like Mumbai which faces terrorism frequently. This does not mean everybody should use a weapon, but it means that they should be trained to handle the situation with confidence. The situation would have been different if the people in Taj or Trident were trained and skilled in handling these types of terror situations. The damage would have been less and the operation would not have lasted so long. The nation needs more solid individuals.

The commandos fighting there also have families and they too have their life to live and it’s unfair that 200 commandos alone fight for a whole city. I feel one man from every household should be equipped to fight against terrorism and crime in the place they live in.

My deep condolences to the family of the departed souls! May the souls rest in peace.

Vision

Vision is the ability to see the future at present.

In simple terms it’s the ability to look forward. We look forward with your eyes and he/she who sees the future in the eyes at present is a perfect visionary. I had a vision for the vision.

It was posted in futuristic a year and a half back.

Now, the idea seems to be adopted. Meet Tanya! Tanya lost her eye in an accident and had got a prosthetic eye. She, with approval from her doctor has called upon engineers to build a camera for her fake eye. And the amazing part is she has got specs for the cam to be installed like DVR capabilities, MPEG-4 compression and so on. You could check out her blog at http://tanyavlach.wordpress.com/2008/11/11/call-for-engineers/#more-201

No wonder, this could also become a fashion statement. People would donate one eye and have the cam installed. The future is not too far. Tomorrow is your near future.

Food

I had visited the north Indian restaurant chain Rajdhani recently. The food was such rich in quality and quantity and at the most, the coordination which the office bearers displayed in serving food amazed me. If you happen to see the restaurant, please don’t miss the food. A sneak peek of the thali is there for you.

Thanksgiving

Nothing beats a good food for a thanksgiving. Not necessarily for a thanksgiving, but for every occasion I guess. Every ritual and ceremony from birth to death accompanies a feast in any part of the world. That too in India nothing beats a thali food. Although pizzas, pastas, burgers and other fast foods have come into picture a thali food is always a delight.

We as our custom perform a ritual every year for our dead father or mother. My dad used to do the ritual for his mom and dad. The ritual is a type of thanksgiving for our parents for raising us and also has a emotional attachment as like asking forgiveness for our mistakes done when they were alive. It takes about 3-4 hours. There is a short and shorter version also available for the same which will get over in just 20-30 mins time. But, in the either case food has a role. In the shorter version, 2 of poor fellowmen are given food for the day. The longer version also has the same with some pujas attached to it. My dad opts for the original longer version (He should have been a bad son I guess. LOL…JFL) He is the 7th child in the family. Huh! (My grand dad is great). Although the remaining 6 might not be present for the ritual, whoever is able to make it does or they accompany. All my dad’s siblings join him on that day.

That day we have our food only after the ritual is over. My stomach would feel the hunger much before the ritual starts. No way! Even if my dead grand dad would excuse me, my dad would never allow me to eat. I would be lying in the kitchen and my mom would laugh at me. Aunts would offer something to eat fresh but their brother, my dad would give a furious look at them. And alas, the moment of end would arrive and I will be the first to keep my hand in the food. Believe me; even with that much hunger I cannot finish the whole meal. It would have varieties of dishes spread over in a banana leaf and those are available only on that particular day. Uhhhh!!!…. The feast remains in my eyes!

Rama and Krishna missing

Accidentally happened to see new versions of Ramayana and Mahabharata in television. Somehow, couldn’t find the charm of the epics in those. Probably I feel the actors aren’t doing justice to the roles, especially the lead ones. I remember Ramanand Sagar’s and B R Chopra’s version of the same getting aired in Doordarshan which had made people involved into them. I would believe that was how it had been live years ago. Such were the actors’ performance and I have heard the actors would show such discipline while performing. The lead actor in the role of Rama and Krishna were Aryan and Nitish. They never committed to any other roles while these episodes were on. So, people would relate these actors as real Rama and Krishna. On the whole, it was a thoroughly religious time in homes whenever these episodes went on air.

The present versions lack those. The actors are visible in pubs and when you see them in the roles of Rama and Krishna, the passionate gods for crores….; it just drives crazy in head. I thank God that there are no new versions on the life history of Jesus Christ or Allah.

Champions

Phelps is definitely a phenomenon. 2008 Olympic game has made him a champion.

Abhinav is also a proud champion. 2008 Olympic game has made him a champion.

So are many others in different walks of life becoming winners. While reading about the Olympic medal winners I happened to read something about champions which was very much true.

Champions are not made at the event/big game. They are made in the quiet hours, during the practice times, while they are silently preparing, stretching, sacrificing and dreaming.

A factual fact it is. And it means that you and me are also are champions in life. How many times would have we silently prepared, sacrificed things and we still keep on dreaming. We are too champions in our own league .

Phelps is someone living in the other part of the world. Abhinav lives in the other region of our country. But even if we don’t know them personally, their achievement inspires and makes us proud.

There is a champion who is in his attempt to enter into the Guiness in my office studio. I know him, he is my friend. It makes me feel elevated when I know that he is attempting a Guinness record. He is RJ Dheena. He already has a record for him and on has started his way to break his own in the BIG 92.7 FM studio, Chennai.

Let’s wish him ALL THE VERY BEST!! Its gr8 to hear that someone whom we know very well is attempting to get his/her name in the Guinness books right!? It certainly urges us too achieve.
