It was summer of 2006, I was going for a stroll after dinner. Just at the entrance of hostel gate I encountered one of my classmates who was furious about a joke on Arjun Singh.
Yes, It was the time when HRD Minister opened his caste electoral card in forms of Quota in educational institute where entrance exams are in practice for admission. Though it has nothing new, and already in practice, this time it was a causing concern as it would compromise over entry in top engineering and medical colleges. Initially this discrimination was for ten years, now it is extended up to endless time. The politicians find a way to keep the fire of caste burning in disguise of social justice. They know, this is not the way to being about social justice. The fact is too far from what we perceive reservations as cure of social injustice. The fellows, who got the cream of reservation, are still getting it, while much needed poor from same social group is still struggling with livelihood. These things are quite obvious to any conscious person in our society but still they prefer to be called as backward as being backward can harness admissions and jobs in less effort or something without effort.
This is the reason why my friend was furious. He came almost bully at me: how dare you to say that!! I was really not ready to for this sudden attack, I simply asked what happened? He started lamenting about the thousands years , backwardness and so on Now I got it right. I was socked. This guy is from rich family and live a life which I can imagine for me even in my dreams. And he was saying that he is backward and I am forward to him. The scream was too loud to consider it as a violent verbal attack. I dint say anything to this guy. In reply I just asked him- friend, why should you be given the reservation in admissions, hostels and in jobs and same time I have to pay more for fees and application forms? You know it better that you are from a rich background while I am lone bread earner of my family while I am studying?? This guy had not answer but to counter, he started lamenting about something like thousands years of suppression and so on. He was my classmate and we all know about the backgrounds of each other. I don't remember even my grand father had that much of land which is currently this guy has at home.
But a loud lie can't outshine the truth. And the people who gather around us were agreed with my question. The consequence of that debate was two months no talking terms between us. This was very interesting episode of my realization of the desperation of the people and their greed to get the education and job at the cost of poor. The same community has almost all police men, most of politicians in my state. Eventually they are the most dominant social group and very hostile to any other caste including those who are so called general class. They don't need any quota as they own most of resources, neither they demanded this recent quota. But they greedy politicians thinks that since they are more in number, they would vote for them. In fact, it is true too. Caste politics has become the synonyms of Indian politics.

You say it the largest democracy of the world. It is just an illusion for self appeasement. There are many underneath facts related with our cerebral democracy. Some interesting facts:
- 40 percent of Delhi’s Member of Legislative Assembly (MLAs) are having criminal records.
- Before the last general elections in Uttar Pradesh alone, there were 5.3 million dead people on the electoral rolls and another 8.5 million voters listed as missing.
- One in four MPs are criminal. According to a study by Bangalore-based Public Affairs Centre (PAC), an independent watchdog, almost one-forth of the over 540 people elected to India's current Parliament face criminal charges ranging from murder to extortion and even rape.
- Indian democracy have another record. The first person to be Chief Minister, even after convicted by judicial court : Ms Jayalalitha ( C.M. of Tamilnadu)
- One step ahead, convicted for highest crime of homicide, sentenced with the second highest punishment- the life term- and the fellow became C.M. of Jharkhand.
Today only this Jharkhand’s CM got defeated by the margin of 9,000 vote in by polls. It show some ray of hope, finally electoral felt shame about voting this criminal CM. But in blind race of power, I wonder he would be still unaffected.
- And if you challenge them, they scuff your throat. Murder of Satyendranath Dubey in Bihar, Killing of Manjunath in U.P. and very recently Mr Gupta’s death in U.P. shows the fact very well.
Here we have eminence responsibility to meet. We got only one option- to kick them out and eradicate ‘criminocracy’ from India. If we are awakened and aware we must do it, else the consequence of being ruled by criminals will be very costly. It would not only caused losses to our lives and families but also we would be enslaved and awardees of shareholders in their crimes. You choose.

The Mumbai attack was a war on Indians and on very concept of India. It was latest among the several blasts happened in New Delhi, Jaipur, Bangaluru, Ahemdabad, Surat, Mumbai and other 25 towns of India. Within 2008 around two thousand people have been killed in these terrorist attacks. Each time, investigations started and NOTHING have been done for common man. However, after each blast the crooks politicians start making their score on the dead bodies of आमआदमी. They have gone up to any extent and bring the ugly shame to nation. When Shaheed R C Sharma was killed, there were sever Netas cried foul on encounter and the sacrifice of the brave soldiers was questioned! These mongrel have X, Y, Z security and best facilities for them self’s and their extended families. But look at them, how shamelessly they insult the families of brave soldiers. This time the CM of Kerala and mad camred insulted the father of shaheed Maj Sandeep. How dare he! But he did it and don’t feel sorry.. He would not, because he and all other politicians thinks that for common Indians ‘सबचलताहै‘. Communist have record be being espionage withing India right from Indo-China war to Mumbai attack. I saw them working actively to tear the posters which was made by students of JNU to pay tribute to the great martyrs. The act of Kerala CM is highly condemnable, in fact more condemnable than Mumbai attack. He must be punished for insulting the family of the great martyr. These pigs would rule us, as we have short memories, we forget all blasts, killings! Every time common man is killed. Every time nothing was done except increasing security to the big anti-nationals like Raj Thakarey, Amar Singh, Mulayam singh, Lalu, Paswan and all. Every time they divide us on caste lines, give the bait of quota and reservations and we just get divided and carried away. We never put them in questions… we never held them accountable.
Is not it enough…
Is not it a high time to kick them, whenever they dare to insult us…
Is not it a right time to take control of our life in our hands…!!!
12th Sept night was little bit lengthy and I was working on my research paper. It happened so time consuming, I went bed at 4.30 AM of 13th Sept, but 3 hours later i had to getup as, friends had came to visit me. without proper sleep, I was not feeling so well, but still have to work. Had my breakfast and started for studying.. within a few minutes I got a call, from someone who was claiming to be a policeman. He straightly asked the contact number of some girl. The number was something like - 9268XX9770. Since, I dint know, I humbly denied that i don’t have any number of such person. hearing this, the person gone mad… said, I will book you and ‘dekh lunga’ and so on.. I kept the call… It was a unwanted, uninvited headache for me.. I called some friends, and by them I came to know that these guys do ‘wasooli‘ (extortion) kinda thing. I called to police control room and informed them about such things. After an hour, someone from Vasant Vihar police station called me and confirmed that the number belong to ‘kashmiri gate’ police station. I asked, why the hell he dared to call me and talk like this? the fellow on other side said sorry for the incident and said that they have removed my number some list… I wondered, how badly policemen have decreased up to this level, they are doing ‘wasooli‘ for private firms… they don’t have work? don’t they care about damn security thing of this city! just few hours later, I heard this new of serial bomb blasts!! It didn’t surprise me… one can guess, how easy to carry out such operations, when cops are busy on working for ‘call center’ kinda sub-contracting job. These blasts have taken lives of more than 40 people, hundred are injured… families ruined and still there will be come statement and counter statement by our politicians. ‘Panchnama‘ by police… News and counter news for TV channels and yet another blast for common man.. who is suffering it the most! Do you have a clue, how to get into the route cause of the problem? be it Indian mujaheddin, Al-quaida, ISI or CIA or any damn crook criminals!? … no one have! a system which is valueless, chaotic and greedy from top end to bottom end- we can expect their response. http://beingtherebel.blogspot.com/2008/09/seven-blasts-in-delhi-again-but-why.html
The crossroads of my life!Keep waiting for me with all those surprises..
Heading in where? where shall I arrived… Is this a voyage towards nowhere!
Still, I got to go! go with time, with the trend, Life says: One must go…
The puzzling quest of people, to get more.. to keep more! I wonder what will they do it with all more!
Have you gone through Behavioral changes in situations, psychiatric breakdowns and depressions… Yes! I have been through it all! An adventurous life I am blessed with!
The characters have made it more colourful and interesting… Sometime the promises and dreams of everlasting become day or week-lasting!
The mean buddies have poked emotionally, and have been ditched for better option! Ideology, consciousness and faith, have been misused often!
Still voyage is on… with more energy and adventure! Unexplored avenues are amazing and shall be sailing towards departure!
Yes! I got to go… in tandem with life! with no alibi for lagging behind.
There is a famous saying which says, 'I prefer liberty with danger to peace with slavery.'
I must salute our Tibetan friends for their brave struggle against China's annexation of their beloved land.' The recent brave protest is fundamental right of human being and Chinese government must be condemned with strong words for killing hundreds of Tibetan protestors.
The Dalai Lama accused China of unleashing a ‘cultural genocide’ in Tibet and demanded an impartial international probe into the situation in violence-hit Lhasa. Friends from Tibetan Freedom Movement has informed and appealed:
''Following a police crackdown on a protest staged by monks from Ramoche Monastery in central Lhasa, dozens of monks and lay people clashed with armed police in the streets, overturning police vehicles and lighting them on fire. Police have fired live ammunition into crowds of unarmed Tibetans and there are unconfirmed reports of a massacre of 26 Tibetans outside Drapchi prison and many reports that the number of Tibetans killed could top 100.' While the international public and media have been appropriately horrified by China’s clampdown, it is imperative that our national governments speak out in support for Tibet and condemn China’s actions. Please call and write to your elected representatives and urge them to push their governments to strongly condemn China’s crackdown in Tibet.'
This incident is against humanity and basic human right. However, in India, the counterpart of Chinese government 'the communists' have been doing the same with fierce daring within democratic setup of nation. They' have claimed the highest number of their protesters and opponents. Not even this, when China attacked India and captured a larger part of Laddakh, these communists started singing songs in praise of China and even claimed that 'China's head is our head.'
Since last one year, hundreds of villagers have been killed by communist government of West Bengal. When a probe was setup, they never hesitate to criticize even CBI as it found communist leader guilty for the massacre. Similarly, these communist political lumpens criticized judiciary when it questioned the murder of opponent party in Kerala.' 'The Economic times reports 'Stalin's boys united in criticizing High Court.' It further reports, they angry over the high court's observations that police in state have become instrument of political masters. Recently, they workers of communist party have killed several non-communist political workers.
The universal communist brotherhood has been nurtured in India very carefully. The communist in India feel jubilant when a communist government forces opponents or kills them. Due to participation and support in present government they have jeopardizes internal security of India several times by allowing Chinese companies, professionals an easy entry in India. Blame to Nehruvian policy, India has not been able to take responsibility of peace and security in Asia. Rather it's own territories are under control of militant state like Pakistan and dictator state like China. People from these territories are living a inhuman and tortured life.' Policy makers of India during time of Nehru forget the teaching of Mahatama Gandhi - 'Nonviolence is a weapon of the strong'. They rather make nonviolence is weapon of weak and weakest India and result is still India bleed in Kashmir and everywhere. Not only India, but the neighboring nation like Tibet was captured and enslaved. A weakest and unwise contemporary Indian government must be held responsible for this.
India and whole world must condemn the genocide in Tibet and put a sever pressure on Chinese demons until they stop suppressing Tibetan and make it free. It is very much possible in integrated global economy.
Since last one week, the national news is focused on validating and un-validating the religious belief, the faith of 80 million people of India. And this time again target was Ram. Both opponent of Ram and Supporter of Ram are misusing Ram’s name. One of these stupid leaders… is a leader from Tamilnadu. Since, his and his party politics is based on enmity from Hindi, Hindu and North India, he has been pushing it hard to get his agenda done. NDA, a non-rational collitions passed to much stupid legislation… and this UPA govt is trying to overtake NDA in such legislation. After Quota in higher education, separate investments and development plans for a specific religious group, this mindless govt’s another step is to let the Hindu’s of India feel self pity on their self.. Living with a hostile government who is creating enmity among its different caste, discriminating for being Hindu and blasting off it’s religious structure. (Ramsetu)
I have been doing an independent study of Ram setu since last two years. Agitated by the dubious acts from NASA, I started thinking to work on Ram Setu. This study was to analyze Ram Setu's position and structure from Remote Sensing and GIS perspective. One can manipulate common population using technical jargons as
Many anti-Hindu elements quoted NASA on the age determination of Ram Setu. Of course one cannot decide the age of rock, but the structure, formation, association and visual interpretation can always be done using satellite images. And this is where remote sensing is concern.
- On the basis of remote sensing principles and image analysis my study found that this structure is man made.
- It is constructed on the basic bridge making rules.
- Patterns of water passage and gaps are based on the bridge suitability. - Comparative studies with similar landforms indicate, this structure is not natural and it was engineered to cross the narrow channel. - Ram Setu is best example of cross Channel Bridge as it is designed sustain the waves and tsunami current, which are frequent in Bay of Bengal.
(For pseudo leftist and dummy secular people I would like to say one more thing: - don’t dare to label me with any political ideology. It is an independent study and independently inspired work. I personally respect all faith and religious beliefs)
EIA and SIA were never done for this project. Let see, how the mess happened even they are not getting any economic return:
• Even though they blast off the whole structure, NONE of commercial ship can pass though it. This ship would be coming again in same route -encircling Sri Lanka.
• The economic returns will be not equalized even in 80-90 years to the investment made till now.. As it can only pass small boats and steamers
• The ecological hazard will be more than any return in your national interest as it will devastate the sea ecology. That cannot be undo in any case.
• The digging ship which was bought from Holland is damaged which cost 200 million $ as rock structure is not oceanic
• Kerala will be exposed to Tsunami waves, it was Ram setu, which protected it..
• And at last but not least- Its matter of faith. I huge social cost to be paid by anyone, who is erase whole structure
Wish you all ‘Happy Janmasthmi’ .. I really miss this occasion while not being at home. In fact, too much of struggles have made me a kind of atheist.. but I am sure I am not. I hope the days of celebrations won’t make me wait more longer…. and Yeah, since I have believe in myself, I have a firm believe in God. Be it Ram, Krishn, Shiv, Brahma, Budhha or Myself! I am certainly inspired by ‘Upnishad’ and enriched Indian philosophical heritage. which all individuals to think beyond all limits of spiritual barriers. One more thing..
when you type my full name ‘amit kumar srivastava’ on google and click on ‘I am feeling lucky’ you will directly get the page of my poem on this matter… I wrote that poem ion June 12, 2004.
