PM Modi from talking business to talking about rape: This is how Country Changed.

In 2015 when PM Modi had his first visit in the UK since he was banned for Gujrat riots, he attracted 60,000 people in Wembley Stadium where he met ex- UK Prime Minister David Cameron. He talked about the British Indian diaspora visa problems, the decrease in the number of Indian students, business trade, work permits, diplomacy and how he has taken care and is taking care of the responsibility of the largest democratic country in the world. Modi received an overwhelming welcome in the English country with lots of British Indian chanting the famous “Modi Modi” Slogan. 
Let’s look at few things which changed in these 30 months when Indian Prime Minister again visited the United Kingdom. Those ‘Modi Modi’ chants changed to Silent protest through banners for the increasing number of sexual abuse in India and demanding justice for Aasifa in Kathua rape case. From Modi talking about diplomacy and visa issues in 2015 to talking about Rape case politicizing in recent submit in London something has changed.
Just imagine those British and British Indian people hearing about the rape case from a prime minister in a foreign land, how much it would have affected the image of India. This is not the image we India want to create in other countries. There were several foreign media who would have covered the summit and made a headline on PM of India talking about the rape of a minor Child in “Bharat ki Baat Sabke Sath” program held at Westminster’s Central Hall in London. Just imagine about all those people who know less about India, who were excited to see the dynamic Prime Minister in UK would have heard or read about the rape. Imagine the image which People who were new to knowing India would have created.
However, Prime Minister of both the countries Theresa May and Narendra Modi did talk about the work-permits, visa related issues, movement of Indian professionals in UK, Indian Students in England, diplomacy, trade, and politics but the highlight was Modi taking on opposite party for not making rape of a minor a political issue.

If this is how we want to show our country to the world I am not taking a part in it. I would rather identify myself a visitor than a resident of the country. This is really shameful for all the people who call themselves a proud Indian. This can only change if we initiate it. I have written a whole article in the previous blog on how we could change things.

What happened yesterday...

I am writing after few days just because I am confused about the way things are going in my life. I have been thinking about getting a new job because I am not satisfied with the present one. This is going on for over a month and my conscious mind thinks that I deserve a better job. When you see less deserving, less skillful and less qualified person becoming your team leader, it is obvious to get these thoughts. I did journalism with a lot of hopes attached with it, that one day I will do something which I will love and I will also get paid for it but the world seems very cruel when things don’t go your way. I have been active on job portals more than at the current job to find something good. It has hardly been a year and I am having second thoughts on my career. I know that I shouldn’t get this impatient so early in my career but I could feel that I am struggling in finding an appropriate place to show my skills which is a genuine problem of this generation but more than that I ...

Review of article "Wings Over Rajpath" from Geopoltics Magazine.

Refer to “WINGS OVER RAJPATH” (Geopolitics January 2016) by Mayank Singh . In this article writer has rightly explained that how a Republic day is made more special by Air show of Helicopters, Sukhoi, Dhruv, Chakra etc. The writer mentioned that viewers either watching live or on televisions enjoy a lot that moment when tricolor flutter in blue sky playing hide and seek with our eyes disappearing in to the clouds. There are three types of aircraft which participate and all take off from different locations. Fighters, transport and Helicopters have which have different speed and they cover different locations. Visibility of these shows are really important in the overall planning of the display. With visibility decreasing the aircraft have to be brought closer to the VIP and the public and then line of sight also has to be adjusted. The author briefly described how much hard work they have to do before performing on 26 th jan and in front of the president, prime minister and thou...

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 Sha...
