Past three months

SEPTEMBER--A hand cut saga

Last three months were horrible for me.September was actually "Sitam-ber" and October was like "Octopus".But now when everything was settling down in November , it Suddenly become "No-v-safer" horrible too. I got my hand cut in September almost 2.5 inches.It was my right hand palm.Got 10 stitches for the same .Struggled with stitched right hand palm for nearly 1.5 months.Was not able to use it for 1 month for eating purpose.If some one has a habit
of doing things from right hand suffers when they have to do with left.You cannot write, you have to operate PC from left hand ,you cannot eat with ,you cannot play and most importantly you will not be able sleep properly always fearing of possible pain that can occur.When I got injured I lost nearly 500 ml of blood.I was fortunate that my bones were not touched.It was really a tough time .I got notice from land lord to vacate house because of his son's marriage on 30th September. I initially thought of vacating before his words but some how I missed the opportunity.Anyways I was always having a plan ready to shift either somewhere in Mayur Vihar 2 of Faridabad sec 31 near to office.Having loads of previous experience in shifting houses, I was not worried at all. Fortunately with the help of few office mate I managed to find a temporary 1 BHK accommodation on ground floor with ample space in front and back and that too very near to my office.The location is barely 5 minutes away from office. I was very excited to shift base as early as possible.It was primarily because of two reasons first my hectic schedule would be at end early and my new landlord was not ready to let the start date go beyond 22 nd Sep.Neetu was having fast of "jyutiya" one day prior to shifting day. She was on fast without food and water for more than 24 hours and that is why she was unable to help me packing.I was packing the goods like anything.During that urgency I got cut on my right palm.Believe me with barely 6 days passed of cut incident with the stitches on the rough and hard skin of palm ,shifting base to FBD was nightmare to me .Anyhow I managed to shift successfully.TT tournament has already started at that time in my current office .And I was sure to miss it due to stitches.
I was almost caught in the bomb blast near CP which I have mentioned in my previous blog.The reason was the new TT bat for which I went to CP.
I lost my confidence in the blast. My mind was full of anger and negative thoughts. Normally, I am not the person who can be easily frightened but I don't know what was the reason that I was very scared due to that CP explosion incident.
My mind was reacting strongly towards this incident and I was not able to control my mind after that incident.

OCTOBER--The downfall saga

The whole October I spent in recovering from the confidence loss from those two events.I am very sensitive person and patriotic in nature.I was shattered by the act of terrorism which I have seen live for the first time in my life . As a responsible citizen how can my mind will attain peace if my nation's heart was attacked brutally by a bunch of terrorists.Believe me when a nation is attacked like this(serial blasts) frequently,confidence of the nation is destroyed up to larger extent. Can someone take pride in saying that they live in the safe country whose politicians are able administrator and they can ensure safety and well being to their people.The confidence cannot be build only by having 9% growth annually."Jaan hai to jahaan hai " but we cannot say jahaan hai to jaan salamat rahegi. Manmohan Singh seems to be busy in increasing GDP ,trades and business only.My question is that if you are not safe who will come to you to do a business? The Govt hasn't learnt till date by the several terrorist attacks in which nation has lost several important lives and confidence of the "Junta".

Our leadership is weak.After Indira Gandhi we have not seen able administrators who can save the pride of nation and do the development activity.We are having opportunistic leaders leading the country.The are not ready to sacrifice their personal well beings and greed of "Satta"(ruling stat).Our leaders are very old and slow.It seems that PM ,President and other old fools are in business for few handshakes,few signatures and saying few words from written script.I am totally disagree that these 70+ shd be given any top post.If they are really important then they should be in advisory board.This is time where India should have a young blood leading from the front.
October was a month of financial instability in industry.Global slowdown was affecting Indian Sensex too.The business was suffering.Those who were riding high few days back were in trouble . Companies started closing their units .Unemployment index was high. People were loosing jobs.One of the company's CEO named "Gradiano" was killed by his ex staffs.There was a situation of utmost chaos and panic . Those who were riding high with confidence now got
panicked.Jobs were not safer.Some of the IT majors started firing. Few big financial companies were at the verge of bankruptcy.Due to all these slowdown in US and other part of the world Indian outsourcing was suffering.But beleive me the poor market condition in US can help India.I think companies will follow the policy of cost cutting and thus they can think of increasing total percentage of outsourcing business because it can help the lower the cost of wages.
Remember outsourcing business in India by US is only 3-4% of the total revenue of the organizations.There are chances this year this index can go upto 5.2% . It simply indicates that India will be benefitted because it can provide better skill set people at lower wages .

October is the time when festivals like Dussehara and Diwali falls.People celebrate these festivals with dedication.People love to do shopping of at this time.But, poor market conditions stopped most of the people from purchasing new car ,home ,electronic goods.The business was on its low at this time.People were hopeful that condition will improve in November.But November proved to be major setback. Though fall in inflation and crude oil prices were soothing but that didn't have much impact on price reduction on daily use goods.

NOVEMBER--Mumbai pain

Amidst these problems we have seen the biggest terrorist attack in India till date. On 26th November what happened in south coastal Mumbai is black day in the modern Indian history.The terrorist literally captured southern part of the nation's financial capital Mumbai.although we have seen several terrorist attacks in past but this was of different nature.Blasting bombs is different from Fidayin attack. Let me tell you Fidayins are more dangerous than the Blasts.The
chances of the damage is more when Fidayeens attacks. These Fidayeen were highly trained in Guerrilla war.It is not a act of classic terrorism ,I would call it as Proxy war. There are evidences that fully supports it was fully backed by Pakistan.I will like to discuss about the role of Pakistan later on.The attack were severe as it harmed the elite class of the society and foreign national.several high profile corporates lost their live . Attacks on Taj hotel, Oberai hotel and Nariman building clearly suggest that they wanted to create maximum damage with full media coverage so that can defame the name of Mumbai.India is land of oppurtunities and attacks of these nature in the financial capital of India can slow down economic progress.Indian Army commandos ,MARCOS ,NSG commandos,ATS,Mumbai Fire Brigade and Mumbai Police shown utmost courage to gun down the people who created havoc.These people from forces are the real heroes . I salute them and their family.If I will get a chance I would definitely like to serve their house,family even as servant.They are life savers who don't care about sacrificing their life for our safety. Where is the Bastard Raaj Thakre at this moment.Where is he hiding ? and not coming in front of any of the TV cameras.He must be hiding in some hole like a rat and thinking about his next strategies to target bhaiyas and North Indians. Can he answers a simple question? Where was he ? Can he tell how many Marathis and non Marathis were in the NSG commandos?He is a bastard of such stature that he can even do the counting? Those NSG commandos were having persons from North India as well who ensured that people like Raj Thakre can sleep in peaceful atmosphere. The government is also culprit of these terror attacks. We are seeing regular attacks. This is not an national movement against Britishers for freedom.These are terrorist attacks.If we are not able to counter attack then we will be attacked several times.Because non actions against terrorist boost their confidence to attack again and again.Look what Israel has done .After the attack on Israeli team in Munich Olympic in 1972 which killed 11 players,they have persuaded the militants until there were not finished.Israeli government took several hard steps there onwards to ensure that the terrorist group is completely destroyed.
And look what Indian Leadership is doing since last 15 years.Our leaders will certainly sell our motherland some days . These politicians have no moral values.The are old ,weak and stupid.Flush them out of this system . We should clean them ASAP otherwise our lives are not safe.

And in the last we should feel proud that we have brave officers like Gajraj, Kamte, Unnikrishnan, Kalaskar and Karkare .We should be silent for 2 minutes and pray to God that the soul of 200 died people along with brave hearts rest in peace .

Muslim Identity

It is tough topic to write about.The situation is so complex.How can we get rid of terrorism?Why Muslims always referred when any bomb blast happens?Why Muslims are considered as synonyms of terrorism?Today communal harmony is in question.The adjustment of Muslims with other religion is difficult.The Muslims are themselves living in suffocated
environment which has been created by few of them.I am taking reference of a famous dialogue from "Sarfarosh" which says "kuch chand musalmano ki wajah se poori kaum ko badnam hona padta hain"(Whole community is considered bad because few Muslims.).It is very much true in present scenario.Be it New Delhi or New York,your first thought when you see a Muslim has been changed .In India Muslims are considered as hard working community.In India they were always referred as violent .The image has been created because of several massacre during riots.They have protested violently every violent attack done on him.But this image was not scary as everybody was assuming it was happening because of their violent nature when they have been under attack.Any thing related to their religion which was not dealt in right manner(as per them) become an issue and they responded violently.Communal harmony in India between Hindus and Muslims was loosing ground due to several riots.The riots was happening in different parts of India after a small interval frequently.That damaged the communal harmony between these religion to a certain extent.Despite repairing it the ruling govt then never dealt with the situation with maturity otherwise riots could have stopped.Very few people were knowing BJP at one time .But,they suddenly came into picture because of ruling Congress.Has the congress tackled the issue of Babri Masjid properly,The demolition was not at all there on cards.The demolition of Babri masjid acted as a catalyst to the hardliners and they started disturbing the communal harmony.Many of the young Muslims were motivated against the national govt.Then started the terrorism in the name of "Allah" which was result of mental harassment they felt after the demolition.Today we can see the number of blasts happening in the country by different outfits regularly. It has created a scare among us.When I say us I simply mean the general public which consist of Hindus , Muslims and all other religion' people.Those who are doing these blasts are in minority but they have created a havoc in majority.It is very difficult to control for you and rollback once you are into the business of spreading terror.Those who felt humiliation at any point of time being Muslim in India are taking a root to terrorism to show their anger and frustration.They can be anyone be it a S/W Engineer or college student of Muslim community.We have seen several examples of these cases in which a young and well earning youth of Muslim community is taking a route of terror to express their anger.The hardliners are motivating them towards "terrorism" in the name of "Allah".They are just using them to create terror.The hardliners are seeing at it as revenge and "Jehad".But ,basically they are aimless and baseless.Terror creates more terror.It inspires others to react in the revenge and do a terror act.I don't say that they should be dealt with flower in hand .Once motivated by the hardliners for sacrifice in the name of "Allah" they can never rollback.Rolling back become impossible for them.So they should be rather hanged in public for their unlawful terror works which takes hundreds of life and create unhealthy atmosphere in the society.My view point is that they should be dealt in harsh manner.
Few people are responsible of these terror act but it is the govt who is more responsible because they haven't dealt with the situation fine.
I have no problem in admitting that for some time I have been thinking that time has come when the Muslim as a community need to introspect and analyze and try to ask themselves - has something gone wrong somewhere? Why is it that every where in world, their identity is being taken as somebody who explodes bombs?
It is this so-called radical Islam or political Islam which is creating problems for their own community and society at large.Majority of sane and liberal voice is keeping quiet, or if not so, then not making enough noise to be heard by its own community.
Now people are saying that MC Sharma may be victim of friendly fire in Jamia encounter(Quoted by M J Akbar).They are questioning the patriotism of a brave police officer who sacrificed his life while doing his duty for the nation.Why they are making noise on Jamia Encounter where Atif was shot dead?Why they haven't done a rally for Keval Nandu when he was killed?
The first thing that should be done in this country that there should be full stop at the caste and religion politics from now onwards.Many bad practices has been stopped by the election commission of India and many more can be stopped further.The second thing govt should keep an eye on outside forces which are creating terror network in this country. They should be dealt mercilessly because they don't have any religion except terror.

"A Saturday"--Helpless Day in Delhi

Few dayz back I have written a review of a movie "A Wednesday".The movie was based on the frustation and fight of a common man against terrorism.But, God has planned something different for me . The Almighty tried to show me the real one .
On 13 Sep 2008 ,I was just 100 mtrs away from the blast site near Barakhambha Road,cannaught Place , New delhi.I went to CP to purchase a TT bat from Bajaj Sports.Just 15 minutes prior to my visit to Bajaj Sports ,I was going through Central Park where blast happened.While travelling through Central Park I saw a sport shop with name Gupta Sports .I thought I should get down there .But because of good deal I was sure to get at Bajaj shop, I decided to continue.I saw few Coupals there in Central park.They were all 25 something yrs old.It was a slightly cool evening as weather is changing rapidally in this part of country.No body thought terrorist can attack here .
After my shopping of TT bat ,I decided to move towards my home.I decided to take a new green bus from bus stop.There are two bus stops near to Bajaj Sports towards Barakhambha. One is near to Super Market and another is at Barakhambha Metro station.I was having a backache at that time ,so I quit the plan to visit Central Park or anywhere in CP.I headed towards my home.
I was not getting any bus from the first stop.The bus numbers 520, 620 and 604 were frequent.But there were no 85, 355.Suddenly I got a call from Neetu and she broke the news of bomb blast in Gaffar Market, KarolBag few minutes back.I become alert and started sharing the news with my nearby people who were also waiting for bus.I knew from the past experience of B-Banglore, A-Ahmedabad, D-delhi that it could be a serial blast.I decided to take an auto instead of bus.I tried but didnt succeed.I moved towards Gopaldas building near to Barakhambha Road to catch an auto.This place is 125 odd meters away from blast site.We normally take any auto or buses for Pandav Nagar from the site where blast happened. Fortunately I decided not to travel that far. At 6:32 PM there was a huge blast .It was so strong that I felt no noise for the next two minutes.I was shocked for 2 minutes and then ran towards blast site for help the injured.But police on that day was so active that they reached before people can reach and started relief work.I saw few torned dead bodies there. Police was doing everything to keep us away from that point fearing there could be more bombs. I saw the damaged dustbin.The bombs were with possibly lots of small bullets which made small holes in the plastic dustbin.Rescue work done by police was very swift and then they evacuated the place completely.Dead bodies as well as injured were sent to hospital immediately.Autowallas were helpful and they were carrying injured without taking a penny.Unable to help anyone I decided to move to home to make myself safe.Was not getting any auto I have taken a DTC 85 number and headed towards home.But there was a fear installed in me and I was continuously shouting in the Bus "Please look below your seat.Save yourself.Don't take it lightly." Not all were informed that there was three bomb blast took place at different locations . Fearing serial blasts they tried to search below their seats as a precautions.After 1 hour taking a different route bus reached at the destination.I thanked God !!.
Later I have seen those couples and dead bodies on TV.
"A Wednesday " truly reflects the frustation of "Common Man" on "A Saturday."
The politicians has a habbit of repeating the same line again and again after each blast .But, despite being informed about the blasts the Govt hardly taken any measures. A capital is not safe ?Politicians are responsible for these kind of activities.They can sell their motherland for their purpose.This 70+ yrs old Home Minister should be ................ .

Review-- A Wednesday

Powered by: Chakpak.com	A Wednesday !

Films about terrorists holding a city to ransom aren't new. It's a theme that's been exploited many times over in the movies, especially in standard Hollywood action films like the Die Hard series.
But the kind of subject A Wednesday deals, was untouched till the movie arrived.
One day Commissioner of Police of Mumbai received a phone call from stranger for releasing four terrorist otherwise the person will explode all the bombs he planted at different locations.On a Wednesday he has given 4 hrs to police to complete the task of accumulating all four terrorist at the place of his choice .For confirmation that he is a terrorist, the stranger has planted a bomb inside a police station as well.Police found the bomb and confirms that this guy is not an ordinary caller and can be really destructive. He uses technology to fool police about his hiding location.He uses media to keep an eye on what is the impact there in middle due to his phone call,Is police actually doing what he wanted? Ultimately he manage to keep police on their toes and four militants were reached where the stranger wanted.Now when we were thinking that any plane would come and all four militants would flee,Suddenly a phone call come from the stranger to the militants and that phone was linked to the bombs .One of the militants pick the phone and bomb explodes. 3 out of four militants died on the spot.The plots unveils the awesome climax . That stranger happens to be a common man and he was frustrated with the fact that militants are the master of their lives and militants can kill a common man anytime.Police is either not able to catch the militant or even after catching militants ,they somehow manage to come out with the help of their peers or laws take 10-15 yrs to complete the process of judgment.The stranger aka common man create a plot to kill all four most dangerous militants.

The story is binding.The script is tight,dialouges are fabulous . The first time Writer and Director Neeraj Pandey did the awesome job.Naseeruddin Shah as a common man who chooses the bold path to finish the terrorists and symbolizes the pain of common man.He has shown the world again that, why he is one of the best actor India has ever produced.He doesn't bagged the limelight though his character was most central.He perfectly symbolizes a common man.Anupam Kher as CP of Mumbai did justice to his role.He has done a brilliant job. But the amidst these two stalwarts Jimi Shergill manages to steal the show ,which is itself a big thing to happen.Aamir Bashir as Jay Singh did a fabulous job.Deepal Shaw was not having much to do in this movie.
The real hero of this movie is Writer and Director Neeraj Pandey.The film has some minor flaws which are ignorable .
Written and directed by Neeraj Pandey, A Wednesday is an engaging thriller with a twist that's more dramatic and unpredictable than anything you're likely to imagine.
I would give this movie 3.5/5 .
