Are we to believe that jungle raj would continue to define the set-up in the National Capital?
Goons are ruling and those on the margins facing the brutality of moneyed class.
private colonies as private hideouts some of those living in private colonies and upping the private infrastructure are attending to a schedule where the rampant theme of corruption by private citizen gets unduly highlighted and they are spared given the comforts of moolah and mayhem they shower on others. here the expertise of those turning the granite and grind from black to white comes handy and their unsurpassable reach in the corridors of a private colony is something to watch out for. Not only they engage their domestic help and security guard, they are equally successful in roping in the colony security guard and the boys who come to wash their cars and caravans that visit them. They are adept in their conduct and those in the neighbourhood agile in their 24x7 breath. With each passing day their confidence is growing and their sympathisers sowing new seeds of discontent. let the countrymen know that commoners won't be cowed by them no matter whom they rope in and whom they force in. The story of survival has continued for six years with the faint hope that money power can't have the upper hand round the year.
Kya hamari angrezi kamjor hai: From the stable of Mujhe Samaj Aaye
Upbraided for not upgrading the English-speaking skills
After all English is a funny language spoken and soaked by all and sundry. From vegetable vendor to tv hunter, it is spoken at alarming length to alarm the janata that time is ripe to commit themselves to English swipe.
English is a funny language, not yet freed from the laws of average. It is spoken in different parts of INdia, from Purulia to Araria, with 24X7 attempt to get a better grasp and in the due course finding it to be a tough task. Perhaps the biggest stress-buster in the times we live and dream in is our ability to speak. collate and sedate to the opposite side in the language we never opened our mouths with and if ever we did it in school we were done in by grammatical grid.
The English that we speak in and the English we cruise with has led to a grooming of English imparting experts who on occasions have their tv blurts . Perhaps their grasp and grind was accumulated courtesy thesaurus ; and those who failed to collect the latest edition of the same were dismissed as living on a land defined as porous and with no voice as vociferous.
Well before 1947 the people had begun to speak in the language that was alien to us and still remains alien despite attempts of tv theatres to refurbish our skills and this exercise leaves the ardent learners in a spate of ill. Having travelled across length and breadth of the country, the most visible form of attachment are the open fields where people accumulate in numbers to have the morning thrill and the discourse having the English feel. Hours later as afternoon sets in the tummy seems to be in a fine shape courtesy the English-thinking cap we worn since morning and the English prowess we droll in. Morning to evening we are caught in the crosscurrents of a language where we have made attempts to write and summarise so as to keep in line with our baiters/bartenders advice. Never since India made more than visible attempts to free from licence raj did anyone in black and white stretch the argumentative part that letters in this language are sole preserve of vilayati budhas who have the guiding support of mata raj.
When it is spoken in different parts of the county visible to the naked eye, the different inhabitants round it up their every sentence with "Mujhe Samaj Aaya (MSA) stress, underscoring the reach on the language of MSA who is yet to adorn the mantle of NSA.
Having faulted those with skills of BA and yet having the temerity to shoot letters that only mandarins of MEA could do, the line of argument from barbarians is that products of hansrajs and kiroris are miles away from getting a grasp on this language of fritter and sway.As debating circuit, tv theatres included, aim to refurbish the language spoken by those who are able to see the writing on the wall and the writing that would appear after a fresh coat of paint has been put and the weather-friendly passages they now and then shoot. Armed with dual skills a rarity in the season when they found mobocracy overtaking democracy when the congregation in the Capital was no longer a secrecy. It is the nominated and yet the firing brigade that can lay claim to having attended to all English upgradation skill classes in the National Capital and beyond and those having failed to do so receiving the much-needed taunt.
Are we to believe that those who gained entry through sports quota in the prime of their life and in the so-called prime college of the National Capital in the late 80s have fewer indulgences and are careful with all the vowel when they babble.
English is after all a funny language where the fun begins the moment they begin to speak as go becomes goo and prints of true becomes prints of blue. Hazare becomes Garware and Garware becomes Phagware as we ascend from the western belt to the northern tilt. English that we speak and the English that we reap makes most of us cringe and weep. Rona yeh hai ki English pe hamne maharathi hasil nahi ki hai aur jinho ne ki hai unhe thesauras free me mili hai. Perhaps those staying opposite IHC and other places are more inclined to the view that cattle class can't afford the language they speak and their condition can be ameliorated including those passing out from St Vimhans by enrolling for different English learning and leveraging classes in the country. After all St Vimhans is yet to begin correspondence courses given the depth of correspondences their products released from its stable long time ago are indulging in.After all English is a funny language spoken and soaked by all and sundry. From vegetable vendor to tv hunter, it is spoken at alarming length to alarm the janata that time is ripe to commit themselves to English swipe.

Having reached vellore from coimbatore, the drive was shaky and the desire to continue with the onward journey quite wavering. Had to keep close to the schedule and by the time i reached Tirumala, the rains had appeared in plenty and given the pilgrims the thrill of being close to the Lord when weather was at its best
The 8.1 hours spent by Indians in office and those desiring to not even spend that
The 8.1 hours spent by Indians in office and those desiring to not even spend that
As per a report, Indians are supposed to work - pretending to work included - on an average 8.1 hours a day. This 8.1 hours a day begins once they have completed the commute from home to office marked by skirmishes and close shaves. Once inside the office and having taken the seat that has been designated for them to stay and shiver the next course is to truly spend 8.1 hours, not a minute more or less .
As for break up of 8.1 hours, it would probably go in the following format. Of 8.1, one or more than one hour is spent in an indecisive phase over the issue of whether they should begin the day in office and round it up with tea or coffee. Once having decided that the day can begin with tea to be followed by coffee and vice versa, two hours are spent in the washroom or in a place resembling to be a loo. There are no dearth of places in the office and its roundabout which have a close resemblance to a washroom. With two hours at their disposal, they take it as an opportune moment to blast the people whom they have came across ever since they decided to give a career a serious lift. The past present and prospective bosses aiming to be employers are blasted in the confines of washroom, with the assumption serving as consolation that these very bosses would have been blasted and continue to get blasted till eternity.
Once outside the washroom and on to their seats of upheaval, the remaining hours are spent in deciding on the mails they should open and the ones they should desist. Mails in order of apperance like 2, 4 and 6 are laid bare open for the entire staff to have a dekho and those mails like 1, 3 and 5 in order of appearance are left to be viewed by their foes. In the normal course the mails are to be viewed by your foes when you have left for the day and taken a circuitous route to reach the place of stay.
Having opened the mails and scrutinised each and every detail including the temerity of the sender to send such one to you, the next course of action is for how long the body would take to adjust to the fact that you have received mails and which you are supposed to respond before the company gives you a final response of stay or stray. In between the hours when the time spent in washroom is less than schedule, then you can well be called for an in house discussion in a conference room to share the plight of deteriorating traffic in the city that let to you skipping office for 15 days in a month. Solutions to the problem are spelled by those in the conference room and those willing to get in and yet barred as they haven't reached adult frame of mind. Post conference room confabulations and tea/coffeee sessions, the remaining/ shrinking time is spent ruminating on how better it would be to have a barter system than cash screech system as once the wads of notes disappear from circulation , the chances of those getting dislocated in the light of this cash circulation would trim. As a result, the 8.1 hours that one was supposed to stay in office in view of dislocation from home as wads of notes are in active display by money power generators in the neighbourhood these very 8.1 hours could be wisely spent in home with no bother whatsoever had barter system been introduced in the vicinity of place of stay.
Once out of office and the officewallahs out of sight, with 8.1 hours truly spent in office, the next search is for a place where you could have the grub with the assurance from the grubwallah that post meals, the tummy would respond in a way you desire and give you a break from office which you don't aspire.

private colonies as private hideouts
private colonies as private hideouts
some of those living in private colonies and upping the private infrastructure are attending to a schedule where the rampant theme of corruption by private citizen gets unduly highlighted and they are spared given the comforts of moolah and mayhem they shower on others. here the expertise of those turning the granite and grind from black to white comes handy and their unsurpassable reach in the corridors of a private colony is something to watch out for. Not only they engage their domestic help and security guard, they are equally successful in roping in the colony security guard and the boys who come to wash their cars and caravans that visit them. They are adept in their conduct and those in the neighbourhood agile in their 24x7 breath. With each passing day their confidence is growing and their sympathisers sowing new seeds of discontent.
let the countrymen know that commoners won't be cowed by them no matter whom they rope in and whom they force in. The story of survival has continued for six years with the faint hope that money power can't have the upper hand round the year.

Upping the security blanket
Upping the security blanket
As i try to open the site, there are innumerable difficulties i come across. Foremost among them has been the message that someone has been trying to impersonate to create the unwarranted destruction to the blog space. But that should not deter to sketch the details of stay and survival in the National Capital. The National Capital is in a state of disarray and each and every resident of the city has to be on the guard coupled with a prayer from their heart that the forces out to outwit us should be defeated at all all costs. The injury and destruction that visited those in the vicinity of the court premises the other day was heartbreaking - and here we need to put a sincere prayer along with a unmatched coordination among different agencies to ensure that the probability of such acts are bare minimum.
The strategy should be among others the need to motivate the sources that vital piece of inputs are passed on time for its handy usage. Sources and those working on keeping a tab on those destructive forces need to be on guard round the year. The flights originating and departing from different airports of the country need to be thoroughly checked and any suspicion at any point of time should not be ignored. Howsoever painful it may prove for passengers, the thorough probe and drill has to be maintained. the failure to reach a logical conclusion to the attack on parliament has been widely responsible for destruction of peace in different parts of the country ; and herein any procrastination won't be desired. What the majority community should ensure is that no acts or thoughts are relayed that offends the other communities. Once the creation of skills among weaker sections of other communities are created leading to their gainful employment, much of the hatred spreading around would understandably be curbed. The employment opportunities in the state of J&K would act as a impediment to those forces out to rob us of peace and tranquility. Mere appeasement of other community for the sake of votebank politics would be fatal and here the ruling establishment needs to bear this in mind. Both the major political parties are to be blamed for the current state of affairs.
As for the ruling establishment, they need to curb wasteful expenditure and release funds for upgrading security. Discretionary powers should be done away with and all travelling by ministers and other range of politicos- yet to get into shoes of a full-fledged politician or yet to express their desire to retire for good- should be bare minimum. the vulgar display of wealth in the cities and towns should be discouraged and a cess needs to be imposed on any grand celebrations coming from any entity, big or bound to get big in the next 24 to 48 hours. further, the forces that should be dedicated for securing the nook and corners of the country should be released for that purpose instead of committing them for fashion shows, IPL, F1 race or a book-releasing function by a politico who ran a bill of over a crore during his stay in a five star property .
THe security for enterprising lots or those pretending to be enterprising like politicos, designers and fast cars drivers needs to be shrinked. The explosion of consumerism coupled with intoxication of money power has given rise to a very insensitive class, perhaps better illustrated through the appearance of ads of big cars right opposite the page that carried the reports of terror that visited the capital. Perhaps a cess on tv debates would be desirable where instead of offering some tangible solution, the participants lock themselves in a debate which is highly infectious. for all the high and mighty, huge and heavy, the time has come to shrink your presence and let the common concerns take centrestage.
