Tyrannical Reds…..

Off late virtually every newspaper is discussing about CPM Vs Maoist Battle @ Lalgarh in West Bengal. Though the roots have been same for both the Outfits (little harsh term as both proved competitive to each other) but gradual doping of extraneous thoughts in the stream of communist philosophy has created a gorge between the Two. Considering political ideology that promotes the establishment of an egalitarian, classless, stateless society based on common ownership and control of the means of production and property in general, the common Philosophy of Both Red outfits have kept them together for years.



But going by the incidents in the recent past, its both the organizations, who in the name of protecting the rights of the people have battered the common man.

CPM have a list of long drawn agenda for development of the State and the party but going by the figures the Red party as tripled its income since last decade, the same is never reflected by the development index of the state. Not even one third of the benefits have materialized, except in and around Kolkata. The poor has grown poorer in the past few years.




The Red brigade/ Maoist / PWG whatever you call they who claim to be at the niche in their infested regions, have done no good to the development of the people. Handing over the arms to the innocent and unlearned masses has aggrieved the situation instead of bettering it. The development / Aid support which would have reached these towns has no been threatened to enter them.

Ultimately who is the sufferer?

The Masses, who are driven by the Ideological forces and crushed between the farces of CPM and Maoists.

Trinamool has been quite oppurtunist in the whole episode… they are just mum and watching. Di sheds no tears, and is least concerned about the grievances of Janta (masses). To add the final axe was drawn when our honorable Home Minister (PC) stated the matter as an internal matter of the State.

Taking the stock of the situation in West Bengal it is quite explosive. People are ready to draw the lines with each other’s Blood. I hope that masses become aware about this opportunist politics and prevent anything appalling to happen in the state.

Be Warned Cola Lovers…..

This happened to me as one of the most unfortunate event, what I saw this morning? As a usual pre-office ritual to have a tea before proceeding to office, I stopped at this shop ( I have been taking tea there for almost 6 months). I would just stand on the corner of the shop and would watch people walking down the lane.

BBMP has a great fondness to keep Bangalore Green as ever (thanks to them..). I hope, considering the same they had planned to spray insecticides on the trees / plants that are planted on roads, Gardens, parks etc. one of an elderly BBMP employee was spraying the insecticide on the plantation around the shop. I was keenly watching him work till he finished his job. After completing his job of spraying insecticide, he came down to the shop to have a tea. He just parked his equipments next to a heap of Cold drink containers that were kept on one edge of the shop.

While sipping my tea I saw that the sprayer was still active, and was spraying the insecticide on the heap of cold drink containers. I alerted the elderly man to this he immediately responded and turned of the sprayer. But till it was stopped the cold drinks kept in crates were already soaked well by the insecticide.

I then asked the shopkeeper to rinse / clean the bottles, as they are all soaked in Insecticide. The shopkeeper reply was very plain and simple, “ why should I do it…. All the bottle are clean and can be very well served to customers who want it!!”. Even on my repeated insistence he would not heed to my urge.

Finally I resolved that I would never go to that shop.

Some times back I received a forwarded mail, where it was told that cans stored in go-downs are prone contamination of surface from Rat Urine, pesticides etc. therefore it was suggested that cans should be washed before there contents are consumed.

I see a similar case stands with bottles as well… therefore its in your interest not to enjoy cola with additional lethal supplements and therefore always wash neck of the bottle before it is opened.

Be Warned……

Thanks

Australian Menace.. (Re: Curry Bashing)

Recent Attacks on Indians in Australia have been condemned all over by Indian Media. They have been raging photographs of people shouting slogans with placards Written anti Aussie slogans on them. It was unfortunate for people like Shravan Kumar who had to suffer during this whole episode. for almost a fortnight i have been viewing news columns depicting worries of parents and travel agents. this whole episode was really trumatic for the people who were part of it.


"Around 15-20 Australians approached us outside the taxi stand asking for a dollar. When I showed them my empty pockets, they started beating up my friend and me"

– Kanan Kharbanda (27), 3rd semester student of accounting, Melbourne Institute of Technology, who has been crippled for life.

"He was crying, on fire. He lay down on the ground and I put the blanket on him… I told him everything was going to be OK. He was asking: 'Is my face OK?"

– Arminder Singh, flatmate of Rajesh Kumar, who was attacked with a petrol bomb

"After we reached Blackburn the passenger then asked me to take him to Ringwood when my taxi tyre went flat. I tried to tell him I won't be able to take him any further and he started abusing me… I have injuries on face, leg and hand. I have two broken tooth as well”

– Indian taxi driver (35, name withheld) who was attacked by a drunken Australian passenger

Last few days have been awfully disturbing, as the reports of attacks on Indians students in Australia continue to hit the headlines one after another. I decided to reproduce some of the horror tales from the newspapers reports.

This is one part of the Story....

what comes in Next is:
I came across the blogs of this Gentlemen who claim to be residing in Melbourne, Australia. and have condemned the the Indians to Name these incidents as racially motivated.

http://www.itimes.com/content.php?cid=99640
"According to the data, 95k students are studying in Australia and 45000 are in Melbourne itself. Few days ago when they were having a protest, mere 2k students were all together. What happened to other students???? I am also Indian and just 2000 students don’t represent total Indian community"

the second Part of the Story goes like.....

The Australian Universities are Costlier and are giving lower brokerage (Consultancy Fees) for overseas admissions than thier European Counterparts. The news worked in favour of the Agents who prefered / Guided the students to join the European Universities. Today, if you go to an Agent and ask him to process your application for any XYZ australian university, first thing he is gonna ask is , "why Australia?? there are Risks.... and European Univ are good ..... and Bla Bla Bla Blah..!!"


My Opinion:

going through the complete episode... one must understand everyone is working towards his own benefit... people who are not benefitted are no way concerned with the News. wether they are in Australia or India. its only the name of the countries which are being spoiled in the eyes of the other countrymen.

Inflation Vs Beggar

This is a first hand account of my interaction with a beggar which turned out to be so interesting to me, that I thought of sharing it with all.

To begin with I was moving in a hurry to reach office because of some pending works that I had kept for the next day. The bus conductor handed a bunch of Re 1 & Rs 2 coins, as my stop has arrived. It may be appearing, why would he give me money for traveling in his bus? No. there is a peculiar habit of conductors at Bangalore, whatever note (currency) you give them they give you the ticket minus the amount written on back of it. At your stop if you asked for the balance amount they would pay or it’s their silage!

Let me come back to the point, I was rushing towards my office and suddenly an appealingly pathetic figure, downed by sickness and hunger, appeared before me. Usually I do not have a habit to encouraging begging / beggars (It appears to me that begging to beggars is the most lucid, tax-free option to earn un-audited money.. J ), but some how I did not liked to ignore him and since I was still holding handful of change in my hand. So I dropped a coin of Rs. 2 in the box he was carrying. Uninterestingly he took that coin in hand and told, the prices are sky rocketing, I should give him at least Rs. 5 as alms. I was just shook by the remark he made, wondering how the alms are going to be costlier if this inflation and price rise persisted.

Interestingly I handed him over a Rs. 1 Coin more and moved on. But I was still pondering on what had been already quibbling in my mind. So I decided to go ahead with writing this incident.

Before going ahead, I had narrated to one of my friends at office, incidentally he also had a beggar experience, where a beggar demanded him Rs.10 as alms. He gave him the same and moved on later some one told him that beggar / bugger already had a 3 storey building and his daily earnings amounted to Rs. 2000 or more per day.
