On My Mind

It was six men of great repute To learning much inclined, Who went to see the roots of India (Though all of them were blind), That each by observation Might satisfy his mind. The First approached the nation, And happening to strand But guided by its broad and sturdy side, At once begins to understand: "God bless me!- the ethos of the country Is very like a Hand!" The Second, feeling the pain of peasants, Cried: "Ho!- what have we bred So very oppressive and bland and dark? Grows hence my sense of dread This colour of the mystic land Is very like a shade of Red!" The Third approached the wild spirit, And in a manner very elegant Awoke the collectivity of outcastes, Which he found relevant "I see," quoth he, "Indianness Is very like an Elephant!" The Fourth reached out his eager hand, And found the other claims bogus "What most this wondrous civilisation is like Has come to my notice; 'T is clear enou...

It is impressive, bigger and better than what I imagined it to be. It is situated in the heart of Delhi but remains hidden. The market of ideological jargon is booming and is filled with teeming buyers for the most part of the day. There is something for everyone here. Much inspired by the penchant of Trump for good deals, my right-wing friend who accompanied me got a great deal himself. The shopkeeper gave him a complimentary list of Islamic countries where people could be asked to go when he purchased a bottle of nationalism. I was amazed and kept looking around. My eyes soon fixated on a big store. I took leave from my friend who by then had taken a dose to test the efficacy of the potion. While I was wandering around the store, I managed to catch hold of a salesperson (no, not salesman! I bought tablets of political correctness myself). He was helpful and gave me a detailed account of this hidden market. I remember a part of the conversation which I have jotted down for yo...

"I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." This quote is the focal point of liberalism which is based on the ideas of equality and liberty. There are different variants and schools of liberalism but the forementioned two ideas are more or less common to all, though to different degrees. Not anymore. Liberalism has taken a turn where ideas have to stick to the conformity of the boundaries laid by the upper echelons of liberals. The central ideas which seem to be approved are open world, no boundaries, no discrimination, appeasing minorities (religious, linguistic, sexual, racial amongst others). There is no room left for discussion, nor is any allowed. Take this for example. A recent incident in India involving Ms. Gurmehar Kaur stormed the nation. There were two sets of people, one presumably liberals who supported her call for peace and end of warmongering, and the other set which opposed her ideas. Both sides...

In a piece of news which has created a storm across the country, Prime Minister Narendra Modi went to the Washroom and didn't click any selfie with the toilet paper, allegedly made in India. This is being seen as an act which negates his efforts to promote Make In India. Besides, his political opponents have taken this opportunity to brand him as the PM of Adani and Ambani's Washrooms. Twitter snapshots of PM's selfie in Ambani's Washroom are making rounds on Social Media.  AAP spokesperson termed this act of neglecting the indigenous toilet paper of the Parliament's washroom as derogatory to entire nation. Rahul Gandhi took a dig on PM Narendra Modi by visiting a Dalit Home's washroom which is yet to be constructed. BJP has defended the Prime Minister blaming the disaster on the poor Battery Backup of non saffron Phone gifted to him by some Maulavi. "Everyone knows PM's obsession with selfies. He has taken selfies even while sleeping. It sho...

Mr. Narendra Modi, the person whose name needs no introduction, is in the centre of the dais now. No more debates over AAP vs BJP, no more discussions over the Gujarat development model, all we are looking forward to, is for him to deliver, to rise to the occasion and fulfil all his promises. The elections have given "him" a clean majority, the people of India gave their mandate solely on the merits of Narendra Modi. The general elections 2014, might in fact be arguably remembered as the elections when a person rose above everyone to garner the popular support. To date, it has been almost 30 days for Modi ji since he took in charge of the Prime Minister Office. This period has seen a lot of hustle and bustle in the PMO. Many decisions have been taken, some of which received a positive response while some have been criticized heavily. Modi sarkar received a warm welcome from the market which showed tremendous growth as soon as the results were out. People could see th...

Disclaimer : This article is entirely a work of fiction,(well, not entirely). In case you are a congress supporter or Digvijay Singh's fan and you find it offensive, please don't try to empower me by sending videos of Rahul Gandhi's speeches, I have got balls and I mean it literally! After Digvijay Singh admitted to his relationship with Amrita Rai, his popularity took a high ride. Apparently, engineering students all over the country now consider him their idol and want to emulate his feat. Pappu, an ardent bollywood fan admitted to replacing the idol of Salman Khan in his room with that of a customized statue of Digvijay Singh. Lots of cigarettes and gutkhas were spotted in his room, which he said, were helping him get in a poor shape like Diggi Uncle and hence achieve his goal easily. Pappu's right hand considers Diggi uncle's relationship as a silver lining and is hopeful of getting a long needed extended vacation. Meanwhile, the number of vagabonds outsi...

Dr. Manmohan Singh , the 13th Prime Minister of India, only 2nd after Late Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru to hold this office twice in succession! Sometimes I wonder what went wrong, what lead to the downfall of this resilient Sardar. The 2004 general elections threw something unexpected. BJP was thrown out of power and Congress led by Sonia Gandhi had managed to turn the BJP's India Shining campaign to its favor. The results were a surprise, exit polls were refuted; politics pandits were nowhere to be seen. However, we did not have a Prime Minister. The idea of Sonia Gandhi as Prime Minister was vehemently opposed partly because of her Italian origins. What then followed has always been a proof of Sonia Gandhi's sharp political acumen. Dr. Manmohan Singh, a lesser known name amongst the Indian households, was nominated by UPA as the Prime Minister. Barely a politician, this man had already proved his mettle as a brilliant economist and bureaucrat. Having served as the Governo...
