The "Belly" of our politicians

Image
'Belly' is an important part of our anatomy. It can give us energy to fight for what is right. It can also starve us to death. It can also remain a power house of our greed. Having said this, I do have to say however that it seldom energies the aam aadmi enough to fight for what is right. Also an aam aadmi's 'belly' becoming his powerhouse of greed is an absolute myth. For an aam aadmi, more than often his belly becomes the cause of his death due to starvation...... The following immortal lines from the verse of one of the most significant poet of modern Hindi poet late "Suryakant Tirpathi Nirala" very aptly describes the fate of aam aadmi's belly...... . "पेट पीठ दोनों मिलकर हैं एक , चल रहा लकुटिया टेक , मुट्ठी भर दाने को-- भूख मिटाने को मुँह फटी पुरानी झोली का फैलाता-- दो टूक कलेजे के करता पछताता पथ पर आता। भूख से सूख ओठ जब जाते दाता-भाग्य विधाता से क्या पाते ?-- घूँट आँसुओं के पीकर रह जाते। चाट रहे जूठी पत्तल वे सभी सड़क पर खड़े हुए , औ

Mumbai has become a preferred target for terrorist attacks.Every one of us believed that Post 26/11, politicians and political parties, will help and work alongside regional and central govt agencies to prevent and save Mumbai from terrorist and terrorism. The last week terror attack that left 21 people killed and many orphaned is the bl

Amul Walk for buttery "democracy"

Like 'Dalda' is synonyms to 'ghee', "Amul" remains a synonyms to 'butter'. In Indian politics ghee is referred in context of instigating people for political gains and butter is referred to sweet talking the people again for political gains.Well ghee or butter politically the gain always remain an'advantage' to party & politics and a "five set" straight defeat for the people & democracy. The political honesty in this country has reached its lowest ebb. The people have painfully realized that a clean and an honest prime Minister is a rudendent force if he cannot prevail over the bunch of free flowing scams-esters in his team. The UPA government may be in the verge of dismantling . A mid term election may after all not remain a far fetched notion. However what is fearful is that we have no political party to turn to for restoring our optimism. When we look around the Kurukshetra of politics, all that we see are bunch
