Women's Reservation Bill

So, Women's bill is through. Phewwwww!!! Here is a deep insight into the bill

Wondering why did they introduce it?

Sources say that the main motive behind Women's reservation bill is to improve men's attendance in parliament.... So thoughtful

Wondering what after it is implicated?

• Now Question Hour hall be renamed to Gossip Hour
• Lunch Break shall be extended by half hour and parliament shall have cooking facility
• Crech facility also to be introduced along with maternity leave
• Space next to Parliament will be converted into a shopping mall with rates lower than that of Parliament Canteen

Why is Lalu so disappointed?

He initiated this bill at his home with 7 daughters but no one gave him the credit

Why is BJP so disappointed at no debate before voting?

Ladkio ke saamne Hero banne ka chance to gaya

But this all is not the only thing that is funny. Funny thing is that this billcame into action when India is the only country whose President, Govt.'s Chairman, Opposition Leader and Parliament Speaker is a women.... Truly, they need reservation, don't they?

Life!! so far

In Teens, Bdays are a celebration, now, In 20s, birthdays are nothing more than a day to introspect where you are and where you want to be!

10 reasons why India will not become a superpower

1.Religious extremism: Long term trends indicate that liberals and moderates in every religious community in India are on the defensive.

2. Left wing extremism: Extremism in the form of the Naxalite movement, which is a result of geographical reasons and also social and political forces, owing to the continued dispossession and deprivation of tribal people in India.
3. Corruption: The corruption and corrosion of the power center in India, as a result of political parties functioning as family firms rather than open, transparent political systems.

4. Decline of public institutions: This includesuniversities, police, civil services, the judiciary (except for higher judiciary) etc

5. Rich-poor divide: The increasing gap between the rich and the poor which is particularly manifested through farmer suicides in India, a phenomenon that has become pervasive only in the last 10-15 years, perhaps because there is now the expectation of a 'good life' that did not exist before.

6. Environmental degradation: The degradation at a local level, which is impacting people's lives in very real ways, whether in the form of massive depletion of underground aquifers, chemical contamination of soil, death of rivers, loss of species etc.

7. Apathy of the media: Apathy in covering issues of rising income inequality, environmental degradation.

8. Political chaos: The political fragmentation manifests as coalition governments at both the central and regional levels, which makes it very difficult to forge sustainable long term policies in the realm of health, education, etc.

9. Border disputes: India's unresolved border disputes, especially in Kashmir and the North East (Nagaland and Manipur) which indicates that there are parts of India that are not comfortable with being part of India.

10. Unstable neighbour: India's increasingly unstable neighbourhood is another serious impediment to our superpower ambitions.

Quote of the day

An MBA might or might not be a good investment for the one who studies but it sure is for the college one studies in......

All Happy and Gay... and its not about 377

Am excited about the budget, i have a sigh of relief but all are crying about stock markets.

Stock markets are not the only way to evaluate budget ... but worse the stock market better the budget for common man... think of it. Stock markets will grow only when companies see profit, companies will see profit when they sell at more, they will sell at more when we pay more and if we pay more from our pockets then how can a budget be good for us?

Think about it fellas :)

Shiney's fav movie - luck BAI chance ......

His fav. lines: BAI god ki kasam ......

His fav mode of transport? BAI Road ......

His fav. ride? BAIke ....... (He was so keen to come to Rodies but then he got to know there are no Bais in it)

What was Shiney singing that morning?

Is zamane se chupkar... puri kar lu mein hasrat

Mumbai's Bai association's new anthem : Ae Bai.... Zara dekh ke chalo

Why did he choose Mumbai to stay? cause he wants to be a Mum-BAI-kar

I am sure you are smart to get the connection :p

Piyush Mishra 's brilliant interpretation of the nostalgic Sarfaroshi Ki Tamanna by Bismil. The lyrics are a brilliant sarcasm on the youth of today! 

True of not, decide for yourself

सरफरोशी की तमन्ना अब हमारे दिल में है 
देखना है जोर कितना बाज़ुवे कातिल मैं है 
वक़्त आने दे बता देंगे तुझे ऐ आस्मां 
हम अभी से क्या बतायें क्या हमारे दिल मैं है

ओरे बिस्मिल काश आते आज तुम हिन्दुस्तान
देखते की मुल्क सारा क्या टशन क्या चिल्ल में है 
आज का लौंडा यह कहता हम तो बिस्मिल थक गए 
अपनी आज़ादी तो भैया लौंडिया के दिल में है 

आज के जलसों में बिस्मिल एक गुंगा गा रहा, 
और बहरों का वो रेला नाचता महफिल में है.
हाथ की खादी बनाने का ज़माना लद्द गया,
आज तो चड्ढी भी सिलती इन्ग्लिशों की मिल में है. 

देखना है जोर कितना बाज़ुवे कातिल मैं है

Star Sons and Star Mums

Imagine what song would star children dedicate to their star moms?

Rahul Gandhi: Naaam re, sabse bada tera naam... o Congress wali, oo UPA wali, banaa de mujhe Pradhaan .... naam re... and of course 
Mammi oo Mammi.... mein kab PM banunga, Mammi oo Mammi, kab tak piche rahunga

Varun Gandhi: Main Kabhi Batlata Nahin, Par Jail Se Darta Hoon Main Maa, Yun To Main Dikhlata Nahin, 
par mayawati se jalta Hoon Main Maa, Tujhe Sab Hain Pata, Hain Na Maa, Tujhe Sab Hain Pat... Meri Maa

Chanda( Lalu's daughter): Haatho ki lakerien badal jayengi, Nitish ki nafrat Peeghal jayengi, Ho Sonia madam pe bhi aasar, Tu chaare ka hai ghar..... meri maa... 

adding on with exactly the same lyrics for Nitish :p

Tu gussa karti hai Bada accha lagta hai, Tu kaan pakati hai Badi zor se lagta hai

Zardari: Oba-Maa tujhe salaam ...... oba-maa tujhe salaam

Obama: Dekh aaj US ka president hai tera laalaa.... kyunki Hillary thi gori aur mein kaala.

Saif Ali Khan: Ek bar ek bar national award dilaa, national award fir se dila do na maa..... jab censor board ki head bani mujhe ho gaya shumaaar, maine manga to nahi par bin maange aapne kia kamaal... 

Tushar Kapoor: Awara hu, Awara hu.... bina kaam ke firta hua bechara hu....Awara hu

Karan Johar: Maa daa laadlaa bigad gaya.... Munda sadda doli chadh gaya band bajj gayaa

Why Delhi Did Not Vote

Here are my 10 reasons why Delhi did not vote:

1) Wax from candles hurts my fingers since protest march of 26 Nov.

2) We just voted 6 months ago, i lose interest in repetition

3) You dont put ink mark on my middle finger the way you do in Mum, how do i pose for a camera after voting?

4) Why isn't voting till latenight? Voting should have continued till 1 AM, after all half of voting population is between 18-30

5) Am pissed off with Govt and system, why is election day a dry day?

6) Agreed Rajiv Gandhi gave a voting right to 18 years old, but what about drinking right? Damnn, no one cares for youth anymore

7) errr....Am confused, was it Delhi 6 or Delhi 7?

8) Why wasn't election on a Friday or Monday like in Mum?

9) We already have cheapest fuel in the country, Metro is shining high, roads are wider than any place in India, now vote for what?

10) Am confused whom to vote: a) BJP: Lotus is always in mudd, i dont want to make my constituency muddy b) Congress: Hold On am confused!!!! whose the PM candidate, if it is Manmohan Singh then why is he exposed less than Rahul Gandhi :-s c) SP: Cycle is outdated now D) BSP: Am again confused, is elephant the party symbol or is it their party leader? E) Left: Left has nothing right Ab batao, pappu kaise na banu?huh

I never thought i will see beggars on NYC streets hanging boards which read 'No home, no food, no money', i though they only exist in India but guess its a phenomenon across the globe. I thought recession will decrease prices of goods but besides houses every thing else is getting expensive. For instance, a metro monthly pass which costed you $81/ month will now cost New Yorkers $103/ month.  

Policy makers are talking about stimulus packages being launched and there i see someone selling condoms at Times Square by the name of the same policy maker(Obama) who are trying to fetch money out of people's pockets to distribute amongst themselves. A bill in Congress is pending to raise salaries of elected representatives and most likely it will be passed and give an increment to the leaders during recession, question is who loses?  

There exists 2 kind of people, one are those who will crib about recession and lose everything and another will take advantage of it. Advantage of low interest rate, best talent being easily available and cheaper office premise. It is heartening to know that Microsoft, HP, Gap, Genetech, Texas Instruments, Polaroid, Revlon, all of them were founded by smart entrepreneurs during recession.  

I do not know if the world is moving in the right direction, may be because i do not have capacities to understand but what relieves me is that there are still sane people who will take an opportunity to come ahead and try to make a positive change.

WHO OWNS KASHMIR?

An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly that made the world community smile. 

A representative from India began: 'Before beginning my talk I want to tell you something about Rishi Kashyap of Kashmir, after whom Kashmir is named. 

When Rishi Kashyap struck a rock and it brought forth water, he thought, 'What a good opportunity to have a bath.' 
He took off his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water. 

When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished. A Pakistani had stolen them. 

The Pakistani representative jumped up furiously and in support of Pakistan, he shouted, 'What are you talking about? The Pakistanis weren't there then.' 

The Indian representative smiled and said, 'And now that we have made that clear, I will begin my speech.'

Saviours... really?

1130 Hrs, received a call from HDFC bank on Sep 17, 2008. Receiving such calls is not a welcoming experience, thinking of it as just another random credit card call I was about to hang up when I heard the girl on other side talking about transaction on my debit card amused, I continued. She told me of some jewelry transaction the last day on my debit card worth Rs. 9000 to which I refused. She humbly requested me to check my Debit card which I did and to my surprise I found it was missing.

 

CRISIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY DEBIT CARD IS MISSING AND SOMEBODY IS SHOPPING!!

 

I requested her to immediately hotlist my card to stop further transactions and rushed to lodge a FIR. Unknown to, the police functionality in India, I reached Lajpat Nagar police station, which was nearest to me. Upon reaching there I was told to go to the Police station where I stay. Finding it ok, I chose to go to my bank first to get my statement of losses.

 

In an ordeal of finding the correct police station I had to go through 3 police stations and 2 chowkis before reaching Sector 39 PS in Noida.

 

HERE BEGINS THE STORY…

 

As opposite to the perception carried by me and a majority of people, Police officials were sweet to talk to, gave respect and treated me with hounour. I cant comment if that is the same with everyone as there wasn’t anyone around to compare with. I was asked to write a letter to local SHO detailing the event. I had a loss statement ready with the names of transactions made and for police to catch the culprit would have been really easy, only if they want.

 

While I was writing the letter, a police official asked me as to how to use a debit card. I was blown apart by this question as this was the same official who was supposed to search for my lost card and he doesn’t even know how to operate one?

 

He presented me with a purse of a lady named Ashita Dhar which was full of debit cards, credit cards, a Shoppers Stop card and a Jet Airways frequent flier card and her license. I had to sit and explain to him how does a card operate, to my surprise he even had a pin for an ATM in the purse, he insisted me to tell him the procedure of taking out money from the card. After understanding, he called one of his fellow officer for accompany him to ATM as he wanted to check how can he withdraw money, question is, was it FAIR?

 

Shouldn’t he have just gone and search for lady’s contact details, when I suggested him to do so he replied of having no time. Though he had time to question the will of the gentleman who handed over this purse to him ignoring his own will.

 

Had he wanted to help the woman, he could have had easily checked the address from driving license and handed over the card, but he was more interested in taking out cash from ATM and using the cards. How can I expect such a police to find my lost card?

 

A few questions again to all of you:

 

• If we find such a purse full of plastic cards, should we hand it over to police or try to give it ourselves directly? I would definitely not hand it over to police as I do not trust them post this incident
• Living in 2008, our police doesn’t know the functionality of a debit and credit card, how can we expect to solve them cases of such thefts?
• If this is the situation for plastic, imagine would police be able to help us reduce the loss of Intellectual Property, soft wares, music, phones etc,?

 

I as a common man refuse to trust our Police, would you?

 

 

Fear of being next

I guess god didn’t want me to wait for long to get an answer to my questions.

A few minutes back I received a SMS that almost answered to a lot of my questions I had asked in my previous post. Those few words shared on my mobile screen spoke a thousand words even without speaking, they reflected how does a young Indian today feel about what’s happening around him.

Before starting the description let me copy what SMS read, it said

“Hi, I am going to Sarojini Nagar to buy a surprise for my mom and I haven’t told my mom about it, if a bomb explodes please do call her and let her know.”

After talking about doubts in the minds of people, a constant fear roaming on roads, it was just a matter to talk. But, never in my wild imagination had I thought it to be true to the fact that we would start informing everyone before stepping out of our houses.

What are we doing? Aren’t we in a way making fun of our democracy? Aren’t we scared to use our rights given to us by constitution?

What do I tell to this friend of mine? If I say your fear is false, I am not justified to myself, if I say you should not go out I am letting the terrorism win over our mindset.

Eitherways, its I who as a common man lose.

Are we safe of are we next?

Sitting by the window of a coffee shop in CP at 6:30 PM, busy in discussions with friends i heard a loud explosion. I suddenly got up to see what happened, after seeing a cloud of smoke over the Central Park, i understood it is something serious. A waiter rushed in shouting "It's a bomb blast". All of us were asked to be seated, though majority of people potrayed to be casual, ignoring the shout. While most of us were enjoying food and drinks, i was observing people rushing outside, it was a contrast of 2 worlds.


I imm. called home and informed dad about me being safe, he insisted to rush back home(he didnt know about rest of the blasts). 

My heart prompted me to go and help people, my mind forced me to rush back home. Honestly, fear and learnings from Ahemdabad, Surat and Bangalore blast didnt let me go beyond myself and my mind won. 

As soon as i got out of the coffee shop, i got the horrific news of 5 explosions. Badly nervous, i started my drive back home, trying to call all my friends staying near by CP and GK. It wasn't a good experience, with traffic on road and jammers placed in blast affected area, it was next to impossible to reach out to anyone.

It was all still better until i saw what has happened on TV after coming back home. I realised that a few meters away from me were lying dead bodies, innocents who didnt even know who killed them, who dint even know why they are killed.


A couple of thoughts:

Are we safe? What is the gurantee that next time we are not the ones targeted?

Why is it that us and the govt is always reactive?

Will there is a permanent solution to such issues?

Is it fair to shy away from helping people being scared of another blast? (specially ones at hospital)



And if you call yourself Indian Mujahideen then why are you killing innocent fellow Indians?
