Making "Perhaps" a "Possibility" !

-


It was not people's need, it was politician's greed that saw India being partitioned on the basis of religion that fell pray to politician's ambitions. No prayers thereafter could halt one of the world's gruesome genocide that consumed people not  politicians. If this nation had not succumbed to politician's lust, perhaps today our neighborhood would not have turned  into a breeding ground for ' terrorism' .Perhaps then this nation  would have had almost a 'no war' record post the British Raj. More importantly perhaps Kashmir would have continued to remain our  divine state and not have become a devastated matter of discord.  It would be more appropriate to mark 15th of August as the day when this country decided to wash away people's desire and succumb to political greed. What happened then in 1947  was, beginning of the History of the Nation that was axed and hacked for political convenience. This nation today at her 67th year of partition remains consumed by communalism, Qutaism ,Regionalism  besides the omnipresence of Scams and Corruption speak loud about this world'd largest democracy that we call India,Bharat,Hindustan

Our Democracy  talk of people's power but never have addressed  people's need .It showcases liberty but refuses  to address failures.It promises secularism but unleashes communal ism. It huddles with majority but speaks for minority. Democracy in this country has simply become the  brand ambassador for "Dynastiscism" In this country it is the lineage of birth and family that creates Political Leadership, not courage vision and ability.

 I don't believe that India  at 67 is too young to not realize that she stands politically crippled, morally marooned and economically devastated .But being  an Indian "Heart and Soul", perhaps  like rest of India I also believe to  stand by the statement that says.. "No matter what we are going through,there is a light at the end of the tunnel for my country ,my India". Any  change in National leadership may perhaps consider   in keeping  the well being of 1.241 billion Indians as the first priority of the govt.. Let us hope 2014 will find us making this  "perhaps''  a "possibility"!

AFRICAN SAFARI.....a Book Review

-
Image
  "African Safari" is an intriguing title for a book that nowhere talks of  any expeditions to animal kingdom in the jungles of Africa. This book is about a cigar smoking business tycoon , a multibillion and multinational conglomerate whose business interest goes beyond his inherited empire of liquor and beer industries and spreads across industries  as diverse  as Airlines, Pharma, Paints, textiles to name a few. The media across the globe dub him as "King of good times".  "African Safari " is the story of "Rana Kapoor" the business tycoon and his business ventures in the French speaking regions of Africa, a continent that is fast emerging as world's big time growth market. The book takes us through  intricacies of clinching  business deals.  It talks about how political lobbying and networking with people in high places and bankers collaborate and become a blue print for M&A  stories. The book tells you that stories of business ventures

Giving words to my thoughts...

I  am returning to this space after 2 years and past 242 posts .It doesn't mean that I have lost my itch  for writing. I have always loved  scribbling words that give voice to the way I look at a situation, or to the way I feel about anything on the ground and under the sky. . My   view  may or may not matter  to the rest. However for me it remains a  mark of my own creativity. My creativity is more about visualizing things that  seldom see the light of the day.   Some call this  “Daydreaming” . I don't mind if people call me  a “wandering mind.” Neither I am bothered about the stigma called  “laziness” attached to it.  I see it as a tonic that energizes me  to think  beyond the realm of possibility For instance no matter how much  ever  I would have   chased my dreams  of becoming a corporate tycoon  I would never have been one simply because I would then lose the privilege and intimacy of being around with familiar and friendly faces sipping beer in crowded bar. I don't l

This Bihar election is the first major election since the Covid 19 pandamic disrupted the political calender and prompted sweeping measures for social distencing. The three Phase Bihar Poll for 243 Vidhan Sabha seats was completed on the 7th. The turnout for the poll as per media report was 58%. Today is the vote counting day. By the time the sun sets today , the dawn  of the next political regime in the State will emerge. Will this dawn usher in a new political 'don' or  the "Sarkar Raj" will continue  with  their  "All is Well " narrative for another 4 years. Will PM Modi, the over used "trump card" political campainer for NDA  be able  to push  back JDU- BJP led alliance once again into rulling Bihar for another four year terms or will he   concede defeat without playing and  crying foul.  Well whatever be the outcome of today's polling verdict, the politics of vendetta and vilifying the  poor will continue. The problem of unemployment, the
