Independence Day has reduced to a mere farce!!


Jammu and Kashmir Burns, Cash for votes, Death due to protests and today is Independence Day 15th August 2008. A day when the near and dear one of the dead grieve for the victims, a group of black heart representatives of the democratic republic of India make merry by breaching the trust of the people and rotting the country from within.Is this what we broke the shackles of the British for? People in every corner of the country have a tear in their eye out of daily problems rather than have the sole tear when the national anthem plays.
We take pride in the golden bullet but one cannot ignore the thousands of bullets that has turned Paradise on earth to the uncontrolled inferno. Has the interpretation of the opening page of the constitution been misinterpreted.
We are a Sovereign country where the people representatives claim their share before their voters get a glimpse.Where Socialism is represented by a pseudo-representative constituting a new class of capitalist.Democracy has been taken for granted where its been interpreted in more than one way from freedom to lynch to freedom to rioting.Though India is a not a Republic by its true sense but its been implemented in a subtle way to gather the popular franchise and help to ruin Secular nature. Who says the when the British left they took "Divide and Rule" back with them. Our politicians are a ardent followers of that principle.
Justice has been the elusive commodity in the country where the speed has become proportional to the amount of media coverage. Liberty of thought and expression to instigate communities and their emotions, the instigator stay back in a Air Conditioned police van to return back to one place of residence in 3 hours. Equality of status determined by birth and not by needs. Fraternity assuring dignity of the individual which may be implemented in another 5 year plan.
So do we celebrate Independence or stare at the dark future which India is spiraling into if unabated.

'GURU' is a well directed mockery of The Judiciary



The "biopic" GURU was a very well directed film and excellent performances came from all quarters. But the director claims it wasn't a biopic. So it means he need not have portrayed the wrong things in the reel life which people tend to emulate in real. There were few controversial Incidents in the movie which can pass the wrong meaning to its viewers. There were 2 things which the censor board didn't take into account, the glorification of Dowry and the wrong portrayal of the judiciary.

The movie portrayed the lead actor marrying the lead actress only because of dowry and without any other reason. Isn't this a direct example of what the audiences with the wrong motive may take and claim when the educated can practice this why can't we?

It also portrayed that the lead actor has committed a lot of financial crimes and he gets away with an emotional speech which the judiciary feels is right and acquits him. The lead actor is portrayed as a hero for performing financial scams.

I personally feel it's the directors' responsibility to convey the story (when not a biopic) in a manner which does not promote anti-social and anti-nationalistic incidents and the public mapping their crimes to the "hero's" of yester years.


'NU'CLEAR OR 'UN'CLEAR

The Nuclear deal has been portrayed as an Unclear deal. Are we trying to question the commitment or the judgement power of the country's economic liberator.
Its time the opposition understands that the contents of the nuclear safeguard deal cannot be made public and its are safe hands of a person who for once has put his foot down for the future of the nation. In addition the opposition must stop fighting over the past and not let the future let go through their hands. Lets pray that the religious shrine does not suffer a blackout due to lack of energy.They are responsible for the lives of over a billion people. For once us break the shackles of party, regional and communal divide and stand up for the nation.
Its time we support our Honorable Prime minister and back him to the hilt. The Members of parliament must not take their position based on party lines but rather on lines who elected them. We have elected 543 marvels of god and not a dozen of them. If they fail to exercise their right then who is he representing the people or the high command. Lets pray that prudence prevails.

CURIOSITY IS GOING TO KILL MANKIND

It is high time that we as a global community stop carrying on pleasure trips and non consequential space mission. NASA states that a space craft burns two hundred and fifty thousand liters of fuel every minute during its launch. With the ever increasing pattern of the rich going on pleasure trips to space and aeronautical companies striving towards feasible business models in space travel, it is going to be tough to control this global warming accelerator.

It’s sad to see Indias man on the moon mission being pursued with such vigor as the country suffering from irregular weather patterns causing loss of life and property.

Its time that the world prioritizes its space program keeping in view the impact on mankind. We have made the mistake once it will be foolish to pursue space programs in the name of progressive science. There may be a day where we find a microbe millions of light years away but no one to appreciate it.

We as global citizens must make sure that we can have a sustainable environment and strive towards fulfilling the same.

How to prevent Idle time broadband usage during scheduled downloads

Hi Guys,

I had a problem with BSNL broadband. When I'd leave anything for download during the free hours I'd see around 200MB+ data transfer even though the download would have started at 2.45AM. I now attributed this to the idle time clocking. So i put together some simple steps and have achived 0MB data transfer during night downloads.

Shootings at Gurgaon a Revisit


It was very shocking to read that a student could resort to this to settle one’s enmity. This is the culmination of 3 factors and in my opinion the student is not to be blamed at all. The people to be blamed are moving scot-free. The 3 factors are illustrated as below in increasing order of their relevance:

Factor 1: It was highly injudicious of the parents to keep arms within the reach of their children. There must be some information which must be concealed from children for their own benefit. ..

Factor 2: The complete negligence on the part of the faculty and authorities in the school. A situation like this requires intervention of the class teachers or the authorities immediately as they are morally responsible for the child’s safety and overall grooming of their character in their formative years. The consequences of a quarrel cannot be judged till it completes. So it was highly imprudent on the authorities to claim that it was a small misunderstanding. All sorts of quarrels which are brought to light of the authorities must be nipped at the bud.

Factor 3: This is the most important factor which I feel is not brought up is because the people providing us the news are the culprits. The media is a huge culprit since they broadcast news from other countries where such incidents happen in prime slots where the children get influenced very easily. The kind of post incident analysis and the repeated clips being played gets registered in the mind of the child and the parents aren’t even aware of it. News like this becomes headlines and channels air this for hours together trying to boost their TRP not knowing that their own children are being affected subconsciously by their action. Time has come when the media stands up and recognize the effect of their content.

Blaming the western culture has become the most ubiquitous thing. We never fail to criticize the negative effects of their culture on us and very easily omit the positive effects they have brought about. Lets be frank to ourselves we cannot shun the western culture entirely. Its time we stop blaming others and take stock of the situation, recognize prune the areas which we feel are ill in the society to bring about an emerging culture.
