Rome is burning

India for last 63 years has travelled a lot of distance unmatched by any other country and in a way never seen in any other country. But every where we look there is still a lot of work to be done. There are many places where the work has gone terribly wrong. But I want to ask is this all governments responsibility. We take pride in calling our country world’s largest democracy. But we don’t like the burden it brings to us with it. In democracy not one or two people are responsible but we the people are responsible. Today from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, from Gujarat to Assam we face plethora of problem. In the last few weeks we have seen the state of affairs in Kashmir. In the Delhi meet Puneet told me a lot about their great state. But I want to question why all the rights which we can enjoy in our place is not given to them. Are they not living in a free country? Puneet can’t even send SMS. Why is this partiality? Same is for all those Maoist infected places. Are they not citizens of India? Why write in preamble then that we are a Sovereign Secular Socialist Democratic Republic? But is this all done by only the ruling classes. Are we not responsible for atleast some part of these?
I just saw an old film called “Kashmir ki Kali”. The Kashmir of that time seemed to even give Switzerland inferiority complex. But comparing today’s Kashmir with that of todays. I just came up with only three words Rome is Burning. And unfortunately we haven’t even finished building our Rome. In democracy we have to all work for building that Rome. Few groups of people cannot work, while others could go to sleep.
All you guys must have heard about a thing called fundamental Rights. But has any one heard about Article 51A which contains all the fundamental duties. One of them tells us about taking care of our environment. Which we all climate champs are doing. But that same list also has another duty for us that is to render national service when called upon to do so. My family has always tried to do their best for our country. My grandfather fought world’s mightiest empire. Took bullet and still made sure that he contributes in building a new free nation. Three generations of my family have already served in Indian Air force. I am also a member of that family and I have decided today that I will do anything and everything to make my country good, better, and best. And I will not rest till good gets better and better gets best. I will join Indian Armed forces for sure. And after that as a MP of the place will make it one of the best place in the Country economically and still one of the greenest. All the problems which I have faced, the children then won’t even know. And I need a water proof keyboard. And I will not let my Rome burn and listen to music. Well guys today it’s going really long. So I am finishing here but I will end it on Independence Day for sure.
Yes we can, Yes we must, Yes we will.

Blink: Malcolm Gladwell

The author describes the main subject of his book as "thin-slicing": our ability to gauge what is really important from a very narrow period of experience. In other words, spontaneous decisions are often as good as—or even better than—carefully planned and considered ones. Gladwell draws on examples from science, advertising, sales, medicine, and popular music to reinforce his ideas. Gladwell also uses many examples of regular people's experiences with "thin-slicing." Gladwell explains how an expert's ability to "thin slice" can be corrupted by their likes and dislikes, prejudices and stereotypes (even unconscious ones), and how they can be overloaded by too much information. Gladwell also tells us about our instinctive ability to mind read, which is how we can get to know what emotions a person is feeling just by looking at his or her face. We do that by "thin-slicing," using limited information to come to our conclusion. In what Gladwel...

Food Force

Food it is the most important commodity in our life even today when we are living in 21st century. 16 Oct that’s today is the World Food day. Ironically this year world faced one of the worst global food crises. World food reserve went down to there lowest point in 25 years. Food prices soared. This triggered inflation in several countries from Egypt to China. Even riots in Mexico and many West African governments fell when they became unable to give foods to there people. UN even predicted that this could result in rise of terrorism and crime. But still we made through it at least sitting here in India, I feel that. But still when papa says that food prices in the market are touching the sky. I feel there are still a lot of people who are out there not getting the proper amount of food they should get. Different people from different parts of the world cited different reason for this crisis. Some said it is the over consumption of developed world and under consumption of developing wo...

Climate Criminals

There was a seminar on Climate Change and Global Warming in the women' college. And most of the speakers lambasted repeatedly the United States of America for all the climate crises which the world is facing today. Thought there is not an iota of doubt in this fact USA is the biggest polluter on the planet today. But the exaggeration by them is simply the by product of the left (mis)rule which have created anti America but they them selves have done nothing less than what the Americans have done. Cos if they were so responsible to the environment then they could not have created a ministry of environment for sleep only purpose. If it were not the hard efforts and iron will of environmentalists under Subhas Dutta. The smoke spewing 2 stokes could still have been there on the roads of Kolkata to pollute. And we have seen that how reluctant the government was in this case. And the most recent one was the exclusion of Environmental Education marks from the class 12th score when going ...
