Na Chahti Pyar




Happy Women's Day to All Gorgeous-Heart Ladies. 

May Every Day Remains Women's Day In terms of Respect and Dignity.


(I've received This Poem Few Years Back From a Female Friend, Who Was at Great Pain of Life.)
(Regret, I Coundn't Help Her, Dedicating This to All Loving, Caring n Great Persona Women.)


Nahin socha tha kabhi
aisi bhi hoti hai zindagi
itni anchahi, itni parayi
aisa kya gunaha kiya maine


jo tune khuda ye saaja di
jinda hu par mar chuki hu
kyoun aisi taasir di
samaz na sake jinhe koi


kyoun aise jajbat diye
banaya mujhe itna nazuk dil
aur fir itne dard diye
itne kante hai pass mare


ki fool bhi ab chubne lage
itni nafrato ne gher rakha hai
ki jaajbat mere marne lage
kahate hai kise khushi


ye naam bhi main ab bhool chuki
itne pather mare duniya ne
har hasrat ab tut chuki
mat karo ab baaten mujse


pream, sukoun, aur chahato ki
mat karo waqt apna barbad
koi umeed nahin ab baaki
lashain nahin kiya karti pyar


na chahti pyar.

Is keeping the head balanced a difficult task?

With brains, human is considered to be the most advance and enhanced creation of nature. Then why on the crucial occasion in our life, our brain raise its hands and decline to perform the best task it is given, to think in the best interest of one’s self?

I guess psychologist and neurologist may not have the perfect answer and mere technical reply could be there. There is one primary funda in management “Right man on the Right Place”. It says that a right person must be in the position to take critical decision when in needed to be taken in the best interest of the organization. Then I would like to add something in it, “Right man on the Right Place” and “Right decision at the Right Time”
I have often observed that well thought out strategy from the very intelligent and genius person has gone overwhelmingly and miserably wrong. Many people, so prefect in there planning, strategize the rule book efforts; go entirely wrong in implementing the efforts to achieve the desired results. I am just clueless about the reasons push man on back foot in life.

Well many will give me simple logic, which is also known to me as well, “Man Proposed and God Disposed” Well if everything is pre-decided then what the hell we are doing here? One would say we are merely following the instructions from the super destiny. If that so why brain given to us? Well no we are not here to mere perform the orders; we all are here to achieve something or the others on our own. We are here with some purpose, not to be puppet.

Few days back I had a very heated debate with one on my friend. We both were contradicting our own statements as well as each others. His was the argument that man is really capable of keeping his head balance and on the crucial time he must show maturity to take right decisions in life to give best shape to the life. And he believes in destiny, against of his own thoughts.

Mine was the diagonal opposite view. I claimed, normally human run by his sub-consciousness, conscious mind comes only into action when emergency arises. Normal functions of life are pre-defined by us, while in extreme situation, we don’t have much time to think and react and we fall in a trap. My friend asked me, “Do you believe in God?” I promptly replied negatively.

Well my point is not related to emergency situation life face. When we are given good span of time to think out strategies to get rid of the problems of the life, why we don’t take those decision which are beneficial to our own self as well as everyone around us. We don’t choose the best possible option, lying in front of us. My question is what stopping us to go forward and choose the best way ahead for our own self. Which are those factors, simply stagnant our brain function and lead us to most devastating path?

Two long debates jounced me, completely shaken me up last week. How we social animals can be broken into the pieces. How our own, whom we trust most and give string of our life, turn out to be the killer or our own dreams and existence. Yeah I am talking about relationships.

Yesterday, during a lunch time, my friend asked me the question. “Where do you see Indian society in next 20 years?” I was surprised, as question came out of nowhere. Didn’t know what to answer. I said really I don’t know where Indian society will be standing in next 20 years, but something is there which is scaring me. This development, which was revealed to me in 2003-’04 while I was doing ma journalism is matter of real concern for this nation. The Individualism in Indian youth is what making me jittery. I remember while I was preparing my presentation for the General Election 2004, and was thinking about the socio-political structure of Indian democracy and something struck to me, Disinterest of Indian youth towards politics. Certainly I realized what this phenomenon is? I was disconcerted by knowing the fact that this development is not good sign for any society

Where is the Indian?

An American visited India and went back to America
Where he met his Indian friend who asked him
How did u find my Country
The American said it is a great country
With solid ancient history
And immensely rich with natural resources.
The Indian friend then asked.
How did u find Indians??

Indians??
Who Indians??
I didn't find or met a single Indian there in India.

What nonsense??
Who else could u met in India then??
The American said..
In Kashmir I met a Kashmiri
In Punjab a Panjabi
In Bihar, Maharastra, Rajasthan, Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Kerala
Bihari, Marathi, Marwadi, Bengali, Tamilian, Malayali

Then i met
A Hindu,
A Muslim,
A Christian,
A Jain,
A Buddhist

And many many many more
But not a single Indian did i meet

Think how serious this joke is..
The day would not be far off when indeed we would
Become a collection of nation states as some
Regional anti-national politicians want...
Fight back -
Always say i am Indian
Jai hind

An Average Indian Fights Never Ending Battle

An Average Indian Fights

Never Ending Battle


Average Indian is pissed off, completely distressed and clueless about security and survival about life. It’s a mammoth task every Indian takes on hand every day to keep his or her face smiling and happy, finding one’s own self among the political turbulences, economical imbalances, commodities’ price rise, and terror attacks from internal as well external forces, unemployment and many other churning issues. Worst of all is Indian vote bank politics.

Man on street, once happy from the growth rate tables and fly high share index, is in disarray today, embattling his every day routine to meet ends of life. The gross Indian domestic situation is tantamount to political catastrophe, which has made an Indian Anti-Politics. The two major Indian political parties have changed the basic definition of Politics.

Answer before Question:
The question which making rounds in my mind is where this situation is leading towards? The dissatisfaction and frustration, an average Indian goes through daily think me of very famous word of my favorite novel, “Mutiny”. The idea of revolution itself is horrible and terrifying, since it includes lots of violence and blood bath. Seems Congress and BJP are not reading thing correctly and believing the historical fact that an average Indian doesn’t believe in collective violence.

Here they go wrong, short sightedness of both political parties is paving the way for an Indian to go way extreme to meet his ends to survive. Almost every Indian corner has certain groups active, which are involved in some or the other kind of movement to achieve their righteous share of recourses. Naxalism across 13 states, Maoism in north east, Bodo & Naga Movement, ULFA in Assam, Freedom Movement in Kashmir all have started with retard against the apathy of state Govt. and due to ignorance of Govt. of India.

Naxals: Indians or Terrorists?
I saw many people have extreme views against Naxals and Maos, so do I. the basic question remains unanswered in my mind is how they have come a long way to reach to the 13 states across the nation and making huge impact on people of India and challenging the state administration every now and then? If anyone could be hold responsible for keeping millions of lives on stake and killings of thousands every year, its Congress policy, and ignorance of the respective state governments along with Left Parties in West Bengal.

I believe they must be given one single chance to come to the terms and table of talks with firm, action pack warning of repercussion for not cooperating in finding peaceful resolution. As everyone suggests, Govt. should take strong steps to curb the maniac. Many would support the Shrilankan way as they got rid of LTTE by fighting internal war. The efforts of Union Home Minister are falling short of action. Balancing act that P.Chidambaram is busy with between minimizing the Naxal impact and appeasing the local political parties to grab the power in the state. I don’t see coming any hard steps from GOI and situation will persist as long as Congress is in power.

Cross Border Activism:
Seems neither BJP nor Congress is more concern about the Cross Border Terrorism. Though only single incident took place on Feb 13 recently in past 14 months. It is certainly matter of concern when the GOI assured Apex court of full proof security measures to avoid the events like 26/11. My understanding of diplomacy says India is exactly doing like a doctor’s order while supporting US efforts to eliminate the terror groups and their establishment as well their monetary n weaponry recourses. US seem slowly but surely moving forward in creating another Iraq in neighborhood.

Fascination of Pakistan in Indian society is at the extreme peak. We must forget Pakistan as a nation now and only should remember it as a bunch of some criminals will soon be eliminated. In a present scenario major economical as well as territorial threat is coming from east. Though it doesn’t seem dangerous at present, India must keep China in check with extremely active diplomacy.

The Real Concern: Internal Extremism:
Something very serious struck my mind while I was having a debate with so called right wing people. The vehemence they had in their voice and the hell bent approach they are adapted to made me mesmerized. The biggest threat I saw here. The frustration, dissatisfaction and disappointment towards Indian Politics are serious concern.

Extremism of every kind will not only dent the Indian image but also will severely affect the growth engine of the nation. If some Muslim Extremists are helping anti-national elements to create social and economical discrepancy in India, the Hindu extremists seems spreading the hatred against other communities. Be it Muslim or Hindu, need to reckon the fact that the extreme mindset has brought the Pakistan on the verge of extinction. This kind of extremism will hurt Indian civilian society more rigorously than anything else.

Scrapping sec 370 from Kashmir, going on war against Naxals and Maoist without checking other alternatives, driving away Muslims from India are not the options one must think about. These so called nationalists are indeed breaking the very fabrics of the Indian culture and society. Nothing wrong in supporting any political party, but without keeping national interests at heart one must not keep the interests of political party at the top of the list.

Anticipated Change Untouched by Political Parties:
There is no question mark that Congress policies and way of functioning is certainly not the option for this nation, not even softy-chocolaty Rahul Gandhi, if he don’t get mature with the time. Pro-people approach and liberal policies are requirement of the time. BJP have guts and capacity to deliver on that front, if only they stop infighting and get rid of historical ideological baggage. At the same point of time BJP has to break free from so called Hindus and got to take more global and conclusive approach to get back to the power.

The way congress party functions and plays the game of cheap politics adopting the “Divide & Rule” policy between communities and cultures certainly going to frustrate the whole population. Muslim appeasement of Congress is the real reason of Hindu extremism and not BJP. BJP has to include Muslims in their development agenda and congress must stop use of its unprincipled means to weaken the Indian political system and functioning.

The Final Solution: Mutiny?
At least at present neither BJP nor Congress seems going to change anything as far as there (non) ideologies are concern. Doesn’t look like they are also going to change the way both party think and act. Like my favorite novel reads the line “This is not going to stay long, everything will vanish, and new world will take shape.” Here too, seems present India is moving forward to its first ever mutiny of independence era to bring about radical changes in society, political system and mindset of the people.
