Is this a start of new beginning or mere a flashback for Saffron.


BJP winning the 2014 Lok Sabha election was something everyone saw coming the day NaMo name was out in the news to lead them in the big money involved election. Since then whatever BJP has achieved in the Country is outrageous to opposition. I don’t recall the last time when the country was ruled by a single party in these many states. Maybe it would have been achieved by mughals or someone else. But this is not something, a citizen should be proud of, where second largest party has only 3 states to rule and the leading party has 21 . Democracy can only excel when the opposition is strong too. Opposition is as important as the party in power because a democratic country needs someone who could ask questions to the party sitting on throne. However the job is meant for the  media but we know they are only playing their card to make money by gaining more and more TRPs and by other alleged means.
BJP has been on a roll since Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah have taken over the biggest party of the world. There was a time when B JP lost Legislative Elections in New Delhi and Bihar after winning Jharkhand and Haryana, few people started saying that the end of BJP has started but what happened after that, is the history. SP and BSP colluded for the bypoll elections in Gorakhpur and Phoolpur and won both the seats today.  On the other hand, debuting as the total incharge of the RJD party for the only seat bypoll election Tejashwi Prasad, son of Lalu Prasad Yadav won the Araria seat convincingly by  around 14000 votes. However headliner for the seat was NOTA getting around 4000 votes.
After defeats in these 3 seats, people from opposition have started saying again that the end of the saffron party has begun. Well, only time could tell what’s going to happen in coming months looking at the fact that few important elections are due in coming year in states like  Rajsthan and  Madhya Pradesh with Lok Sabha elections to follow after that.

Chapter 2, We played Cricket on mountains

In chapter 1, I opened about how I got into this mass communication. In this chapter I will tell you about the experiences of field. When I was done with graduation, I was looking for a job. Even though I wanted it to be related to journalism but I didn’t get one. There were people back from hometown telling me to find one and utilise my time.   My brother had a friend, who got me hooked with my first job as a content writer which didn’t last more than 20 days. Neither I enjoyed working there nor they paid enough for me to stay. Once, when I was working there I got a call from someone whom I knew from my previous internship asking me to work for a   web portal in Himachal Pradesh. I was more than happy to take that offer into consideration and after talking to my parents I finally decided to take that. That’s how I reached Himachal Pradesh probably one of the beautiful places I have ever been and found myself a dream job. It was really awesome roaming between mountain...

Democracy allows protest, not violence and death with it.

We have seen many popular protests in India. Some were democratic and some were non-violent and undemocratic. Famous Anna Hazare’s agitation for Lokpal Bill in country’s Capital was non-violent and very cooperative. Jat Agitation in country was violent and the government lost crores. And then there were people who went mad over arresting of Ram Rahim Baba. Here also we lost capitals. Before few days farmers were protesting in Maharashtra which was very silent and non-violent. Protests and agitations makes democracy beautiful but on the name of them if you are involved in killing of people how could you justify it. Great Mahatma Gandhi had many shades, his best one was non-violence. However, some people think that there were instances where he should have gone against it. The country lost millions of Capital with the Bharat Bandh today when people were on road protesting against the decision of supreme court in making changes in SC\ST act. Disagreeing with the decision and marchi...

Best thing about Navratra is "Bhandara" for Poor

.I have never been a fan of worshipping and praying to almighty God. I respect those people who follow them and pray for a better tomorrow but I never found the logic behind it. However there have certain times when I may have prayed, but that must have been at those times when life was most vulnerable for me or for my loved ones. And yes I have prayed once when I was batting while playing cricket too, like the great Sachin Tendulkar but this was  way before. I know I am going to be criticised for what I am writing today, may be I will be declared an atheist by people. People may start hating me or think I am goofy, foolish, witless and berk but it doesn’t matter to me. I don’t have give a damn about Ram Mandir will be made or not. The only thing I know that my diabetic mother stays on fast going against the doctor’s advice and get sick. I can’t even count how many times I would have told her that her first priority should be health. But we know what these Moms answer, they ...
