The Shift . . .

The excerpt that follows may sound a little trendy as you find in autobiographies but is apt sans any exaggeration. I recall the shattered face of that lady who rented me a room in her flat in Kota for two years for my engineering entrance preparation, when i first uttered that I am a Bihari after a fair deal of finalising the room for a couple of thousand bucks a month. She was like, 'oh my god, Bihari !! My goodness , what if you use my ally to shit.' I ain't expecting any cheap laugh at this point. I guess, even she doubted if i would rape her daughter. This was sad but it was moronic on my part that I couldn't blame her for this after my worst possible insult.
If you remember the movie, 'Ye Mera India'. There is a still in which Rajpal Yadav arrives at the Mumbai CST and begs for job to a beggar over there. And even that beggar kicks him saying,

"Go back to Bihar, you Biharis come and pollute Mumbai."

In the same movie, the Mumbai traffic police stops a car walla just because he doubted him to be a Bihari, because his audio player was rhythming at

'Main aayi hun UP Bihar Lootne'.

Though I liked the movie, its very sad for me and the Bihari community (which I never endorse as such) that our conditions have been a source of inspiration for such movies. Aweful ! Yesterday when I was searching for the nearest Subway outlet in Patna on subway locator, you couldn't imagine it was in Durgapur (West Bengal). What is, that made Subway to prefer Durgapur over Patna ? Not a single Subway in entire Bihar. Even, I bet if some one has travelled entire India except one state, that one would be Bihar !

But then, There's a paradigm shift . . .

Today, contrastingly, if any leading firm wishes to expand its span, the first state it travels is Bihar. Untill recently there was not a single Shopping Mall in the state capital, but today there are a plenty of and a dozen under construction. A single man makes up the majority if god is with him.

Imagine the case when thousand men will be having thousand respective gods with them, and thus they will be making up thousands of majorities. Won't they bring about the change thousand times as Bihar had recently. I say, crap the thousand deal, just 28 + 7 of them are enough. But, the question arises, who should they be ? I have laid down three criteria:

1. He should not be even a distant kin of Mr. Karunanidhi.

2. He should not be a PhD holder from any of the Bihar Universities during 1990-2005 (The infamous Lalu Kingdom).The degress were all fake.

3. He should not be an Anti-Hindu Muslim or an Anti-Muslim Hindu.

Just these three criteria make up the things. Apart from this if he happens to be an Engineering student or in a case any graduate from any reputed institute is all enough to flagshipize the Indian Glory. Why did I say engineering student and how do I define a reputed institute ? I will come to it in a while. At this point, I say,the power and the enthusiasm the youth possess is incomparable. You can't expect a septuagenerian Prime Minister with a bye pass surgery done to handle the Onion Price, check the Naxalite attacks, Scrutinize the corrupt cabinet ministers, attend the G-20 summit, fight for the permanent membership in UN security council and to deliver the convocation addresses in Universities all in one stretch. It's is simply impossible.

India now needs people like me and you who has education, who knows the societal set-up of rural India and also has been an intimate denizen of the breeding mall culture. The person who can sip his morning coffee in the Starbucks and while on the way to his uncle's place, can also stop by 'amar dhaba' and can have his Gold Flake. Such a versatile personality is all what Indian politics lacks as on date. The Indian Politics is corrupt. Young people should survey out the society. Their needs should be properly analysed. A proper frame work has to be made. And then youth should launch their campaigns in accordance. The honesty, the dire to work hard, and the thirst to see India developed is at its trough in the 35% young enthusiasts of our nation. Just put the onus on us and see the miracle in a decade.

For God's sake, if I become the cabinet minister then, will drive straight to Kota just after the oath and will kill Mrs. M.L Sharma in my first agenda. And then the drive to flagshipise India will take precedence over even extra marital affairs.

I'm waiting for the day when Bhartiya Janta Party will come to NIT Rourkela for recruitments. Just they need to drop in a mail to the Training and Placement cell. A pick -up to the airport will be sent for sure.

My secret page !

When I was offered the joining letter by Schlumberger, people raised their eye-brows as if I would mine Copper from their Gold mines. I was placed in some sub Saharan African oasis. Life Expectancy was too low. Demographics said, only 1.5 % of the total population were immigrants. Of which only 30 % could return back safely. My decision to join the firm came as the biggest surprise to their lives. But I didn't have any other option to choose.

The days and years passed by, neither did I mine Copper nor had I faked their Gold with the fool's gold. Life was going at a very smooth pace. Parents agreed to marry me to my love. As none other they could find who agreed to stay with me in the Sub Saharan Burkina Faso. I felt like arranged marriage was invented for me, but it was falsified then. No tops ! No turns ! Life was moving on in a way expected for a mining engineer. She too adopted herself with the Burkina Culture. In the subsequent years, We had a baby daughter. My wife got another "human" to play with. She was admitted in a French school there when she grew little older.

One sunny morning, I got a call from one of my best school friends who was working with some news channel in Latur, Maharashtra, India. He invited me to India for his wedding. I flew alone to India to attend it. It was the first time that i flew alone since I stayed in Burkina Faso. I was feared if my wife would stay safe.

This India visit came as a even bigger surprise to my wife. I resigned Schlumberger and chose an independent profession in India after my return to Burkina.

I started liking the new job. It fetched me a handsome salary but lesser than that in Burkina. But, me and my wife both were happier. My daughter started learning Hindi.

One October morning, I woke up with a call from a person saying, "Is this Mr. AR ? you are saying to the Chief Minister of Karnataka. See, I am impressed by the ways you reveal scams and publicize it on the television. Owing to your virtue, I wish to see you once in my office. It will be very kind if you please visit me this friday."

I was perplexed. The best I could expect was an excellence award. That Friday, I went to see him in his office. As soon as I reached, he ordered his men to shut the doors and put before me a cup of coffee. You won't believe, he said,

"See, Mr. AR I'm gonna give away the government land to two of my sons and a daughter-in-law for a price which will be much below the market price. So, it will be your day, if you reveal this scam in the news channel you work for. And yes, don't forget to say that, the land is worth many crores. This will fetch you big leap in your career as it will then be a multi-crore scam."

I disclosed his scam. My popularity grew. My wife was skeptical about this. She doubted why would one ask to reveal his/her own scam.

In a couple of weeks, I got a call from A.Raja. He was very much enthusiastic about his project. He came up with a scam which worthed more than 5 times our yearly national budget. But he was desperate as no body was taking up his case. He was being cursed by his secretary for not being able to get even one media person at his door. He was like bubbling out with his scam. he had done all his job . He was just waiting for a platform upon which he could shout about his scam to the entire nation. I took up his job and publicized his scam of whopping amount.

I grew much more with this project. People having done scams of merely 100 crores too started approaching me. I felt very disappointed when I could not help them. I didn't have spare time to publicize the scams of less than 1000 crores.

When at home, my cellphone rang every minute. My wife and daughter did not like my busy schedule. They wished me to spare time for them. In the mean while, I got another call from Mr. Suresh Kalmadi. And when I was talking to him. My cellphone beeped many a times. It was Mr. Ashok Chavan's call in waiting. I dealt with both of them and helped them gaining popularity.

Now, I had grown a national figure. People were queued up in front of my house with their individual scams of various capacities, when I left home in the morning for the office. Things turned their way. I had a wikipedia page for me now. I was a very popular figure among the lobbyists and the people who did scams did honor me a lot.

One day, when I was in a cocktail party organised in my honor by one of the clients whose scam I had successfully busted , Rahul Gandhi called me. And while I was talking to him, I got a call-in-waiting by Manmohan Singh. I immediately swapped the call and answered Mr. Singh, "Sir, Rahul Ji is on call, I'm calling you back in a while !"

BJP minus Hindutva.

I time and again use to confess, I hate mythology and the spiritual talks kill me. But does that mean, I am anyway shallower ? Do you conclude with my negligence towards these, that I can't be of any solid notion towards an aspect ? Is it so ? You morons have already built a strong point some where deep inside your cerebrum ,that understanding India means to understand the Hindu mythology and neither can anybody understand the later skipping former.

Another day, when in a comment on Facebook, I wrote: "wreck this congress government and substitute it with 'BJP minus radical Hinduism' ", I got three texts back on my cellphone. One of them asked, "Do you think, After Subtracting, Hinduism from BJP, BJP does exist even? " I couldn't send an instant reply to her. But, I had to think over it and I was able to answer her after a detailed analysis of the BJP and its agenda.

It is indeed obvious, that BJP has its image as a Hindu political party. But let me put up a question, suppose,

I'm leading a political party and will put before you the agenda of just making Hindu community stronger and will also assure a temple at Ayodhya. Another day, other person comes leading another political party, and assures you, economic development, better roads, technological development, uninterrupted power supply and education for all.

At the polling booth, for which party, will you press the EVM ? Atleast not for the former.

But in the recent past, India has seen the Prime minister from that party. Do you think people of India are so feeble that they lack even the simple sense of judgement. Certainly not. And what does that mean, BJP is not only about Hinduism and the Ayodhya temple. And if it would have been, do you think Kishanganj would have voted for BJP in the Bihar assembly elections which has 70% muslim population ?

Infact, in the Bihar elections, BJP won 91 of the 102 seats it contested. Do you think people have just voted it to ensure one ram temple in each of its constituency. No, people believe that, if BJP subtracts Hinduism from its agenda, it becomes their favorite. For the election campaigning, Narendra Modi was not called because he is regarded as a Hindu icon, neither BJP discussed the Ayodhya temple issue during it's entire campaigning in Bihar. And this bore the fruits. People sweeped the way for BJP because then BJP proved to be the best option.

In the past also, whenever BJP insisted on its, orthodox Hinduism views, it was wrecked. A couple of years ago, after the Kandhamal riots, BJP has to loose it's share from Satta in Orissa ! Kalyan Singh lost in UP.

People take Narendra Modi as an orthodox Hindu leader. I wondered then how is he the Chief minister of a state for so long. I surfed his official website, and i found the answers. He has done fantabulous work in the female literacy, Special Economic Zone and agriculture. Which means it is impossible for a party to win the hearts of the people on this orthodox folio.

And yes, when BJP deletes this Hinduism agenda it becomes the strongest contender to rule the nation. The present government lacks the unshaken hands to initiate. India has so far conducted 6 nuclear tests out of which 5 have been conducted in 5 years tenure of the BJP government. Don't you think US hadn't tried to forbid India from doing so. Even The then prime minister turned down the US request to sign the CTBT. Isn't this a sign of strong governance.

Today, in USA, one or other Indian citizen is stripped at the airport every hour for the sake of their security. Even top officials like Meera Shankar and Hardeep Puri were asked for security check.

Isn't this an act of sheer coward that, we at India welcome Hillary Clinton without passing her through any security check who is at a post at par as George Fernandes was then, when he was security checked by the TSA.

A simple solution, every day the Ambassador of USA to India visits the south block in Delhi. Just one day, check him thoroughly in an typical Indian style at the South Block entrance i.e shake him from top to bottom. USA will learn the lessons. But no. Present UPA government can't dare do so. What will be the fate of nuclear deal then ?

And so I put my step forward and support "BJP minus radical Hinduism".

Saffron Terror !!

[Note: This post is written as a reply to Himanshu Shekhar's post on his blog. He goes on to elaborate that nothing called 'Saffron Terror' exists in this nation. Lets analyse.]

Chidambaram utters and a shoe sways on his face!! If not today, may be next time when he commits this crime. Chidambaram, you are the home minister of a country which is just by fluke a secular country. It ought to be a Hindu nation and no matter what, we experience a royal hospitality because we are magnanimous ‘one billion’ of ‘one point some billion’ population. You may be assigned to maintain a state of welfare for all the citizens but we least bother. For us, development of other under privileged sects at the cost of our community is what we can sue you for.

Let’s have a look on what else this saffron brigade has in its store to present before you which by the matter of the fact of being in a country of pro-saffron majority, you may have skipped.

Saffron Terror 1 : Killing of Graham Staines :

In Mayurbhanj, Orissa, on 22^nd January 1999, Graham Staines was brutally killed with his two sons in an attack by a lead saffron organization people. Dara Singh, the prime accused had connections with the Bajrang Dal and was sentenced to death by a special court of CBI for this brutal act on 22 Sep, 2003. Graham Staines actually worked for an Australian missionary society in the area of Mayurbhanj. Ms. Stains still selflessly runs a leprosy house for the welfare of the leprosy patients in Baripada, Orrisa.

Before I proceed further, let me beforehand confess that all the data and facts have been compiled from various reliable sources and these data and facts have been further blended with the emotions of the people belonging from Christians, converted Christians , re-converted Hindus and the tribal sects of Orissa, fortunately, I share my dinner table with.

Saffron Terror 2 : Rape of sister Meena Lalita :

On 25^th August, 2008, Sister Meena Lalita was allegedly raped in Nuagaon, Orissa by a fanatic Hindu mob. She was even dragged alongside a priest. She hid herself because of the fear of Hindu extremists for long. It was only after the suspension of a police officer for delaying the investigation that the case came into mass picture. The woe is that, then BJP was in alliance with the ruling government of Orrisa and the Saffron-BJP conundrum is all known. Archbishop of Cuttack further insisted for the CBI probe of the alleged rape by Bajrang Dal Activists and then the case swayed further.

Saffron Terror 3 : Atrocities on Christians of Kandhamal :

Following the killing of Swami Lakshamanananda Saraswati on 23^rd August,2008 a violence led by VHP activists gripped Kandhamal intensely. The VHP activists led none of the stones unturned in devastating Christian base in Kandhamal which according to them where responsible for Swami’s killing. Without giving any heed to the claim of the killing by the Maoists, Vishwa Hindu Parishad men took all their hands out in revenge for their earlier enmity with the Christian groups. They set Christian orphanages on fire, killed Christian employees of the missionary charities and raped the Christian women.

P.S: I further googled the history of Kandhamal and what I found is much more revealing and shocking for pro-saffron people. The clash between two odd village groups was firstly intensified by these communal brigade and was then given a shape of riot because coincidently the group belonged to two different religions. It will be explained in the follow up comments section.

Saffron Terror 4 : Malegaon Blasts :

On 8^th September 2006, in the shiny afternoon when some muslim pilgrims were returning after Friday prayers on the holy Shab-e-barat day in Malegaon,Maharashtra, some Hindu extremist organization targeted them and killed 50 in a series of a blasts inside the Muslim cemetery and injured hundreds others in the stampede that followed. The prime accused Pragya Thakur is the protagonist of the saffron brigade.

Saffron Terror 5 : Mecca masjid blast, Hyderabad :

On 18 May, 2007 Mecca Masjid of Hyderabad which is very close to Charminar, was targeted and was blasted at the time of Friday prayers aiming the lives of innocent Muslims. The explosives used and pattern of attack pose a serious threat to the internal security of our country. The chief suspect in this case is also a guiding Saffron group.

If this is not enough to put the threat of Saffron terror before the country there are cases of Ajmer blasts on 11 October 2007.

In a nutshell, if we say, government is creating a ‘pseudo terror’ in the form of ‘Saffron Terror’ just to hide its incompetency to fight the ‘Jihadi Terror’, then it will be too impatient of a comment by a sensible person. The government is incompetent in fighting Jihadi Terror but at the same time it is not creating a pseudo terror in the shawl of saffron terror. To be in the realistic and logical ambience, ‘Saffron Terror’ too exists in parallel. We should make the actual figures handy and moreover must not shut the mouths of the oppressed few crores of our population. Rather should lend our supporting mouths to guide their words to the proper platform . . . .
