REPUBLIC AT 60…. ARE WE GOING STRONG?

Author: Mukul / Labels: ,



The various newspaper articles have prompted me to write this blog. I remember the time when Mr L.K. Advani said that we are being run by a Weak PM. He was greatly objected, refuted & opposed from all sections of the Society and being left alone he then apologized for the same. But today as I look the daily proceeding of Govt. and the Parliament It makes people think about it again.


The PMO has become a publishing house where all internal confidential reports are leaked to the media without any hiccups. The PMO is often found apologizing for the mistakes being done by his not so competent Ministers/MOPs. Like Today I found An Ex-PAK Army Chief on the AD published for Female Foeticides for which PMO was SORRY, another incident when the PM himself apologized in last Parliament session when A Congressmen Abused our former PM Mr. Vajpayee  for calling him “Neech”. PM was sorry for the quote but that shameful Congress man and the Party seemed defending that statement. This is the party that won remarkable mandate winning 200 odd seats alone emerging as single largest party in 15th Lok Sabha, it seems hard to understand that why still PMO looks very feeble on most of the occasions.

The Slogan “Perform or Perish” after wining elections looks just a Humorous quote as most of the Ministers are underperforming and are miserably failing.  The 100 Day action Plan has been just blown in the cigarette smoke. The Non- Performers are allies hence Our PM feels it is Important to save Govt. than to save the Nation. 

Sharad Pawar intentionally comes out with speeches showing Price Rise and next day one finds prices doubled as if the last night it was all fixed on a coffee table but still he continues to be the Minister as NCP being a Pillar to the Govt.  India is known to be the most fertile land in this World and even if our population grows thrice of today with an Honest Leader & Strong Policies, we’ll be equipped enough to give ample meals to each of them. But today we are importing all major Goods at exaggerated Prices.

Praful Patel, the World knows about the Big Gamble but the PMO is unaware of it or is ignoring it. The Great AI-IC loss to widespread unemployment in Aviation Industry is well known, Civil Aviation should be at the boom right now as hardly 2% Indians Travel by Air and if tomorrow we have 4% then we don’t have sufficient airports to handle them all. It just needs Good Infrastructure and Strong Regulation. 

The Leaked Confidential Letter to Mr Shinde by PMO showed that Power Sector’s Growth was miserable and has resulted in lesser GDP and was caught saying that NDA Govt’s growth was unprecedented which embarrasses the Govt. even more.

Mr Alagiri is completely unaware of two vital languages in India i.e Hindi and English but he is our Honorable Minister for Chemical. Only God knows how people in that ministry are undergoing their daily rides. Mrs Mamata Bannerjee looks more focused on Bengal than her Ministry-Indian Railways and in-office Minister of Telecom is alleged to have received Kick backs but still GOVT IS IMPORTANT THAN THE NATION. All these, I suppose don’t really prove that this Govt. is Strong or can do anything for which Indians voted them in Big Numbers.

I hope that Indians will understand that Religious/Caste Based Politics or so called Secular Tags was an Old Tool to win elections. The Party that has got Guts to develop should only be given right to rule. Rather than having a Cute & Innocent looking Leader this country wants an Independent, Decisive, Strong and Determined Party and its leader as we are facing threats both Internal and External.  A country Weak in its Security and Agriculture will not last long in any stage of war, for which India should be prepared each day when we wake up with the rising sun.  Rightly being said by Mr Shastri as “JAI JAWAN, JAI KISAN”





As India enters its 60th Republic Day celebration, we are still facing tremendous problems which are more severe than the one which we had when we enjoyed the first one. If just 10% of the Total Population works honestly for their Motherland I don’t find it difficult to visualize the day when India will become the Super Leaders of the World and India’s Economy will Guide the World Stock Markets. But that does not mean that our responsibility lies on someone else’s shoulder.

The Dream that all Revolutionary Souls of this Land have seen for Indian in 2020 is not very far, just our Precious Vote can do the needful. India has all the ingredients to be the leader But what we need is Respect for Our Own Country and the Countrymen.


Jai Hind

The Trained Protectors Turned Spoilers of the Law

Author: Mukul / Labels: ,

I am a firm believer that If Police wants then none can even dare to think about stealing a young boy’s toy on the Road. Whenever I have been to places outside Delhi, People tend to ask me if it’s Safe to be in Delhi and I find myself sitting at the edge of the knife because I am going to defend something I have not seen in recent times. Hence today, in my blog I would accept that yes if we rate Delhi Police it tops the chart of worst along with the lights of U.P, Bihar and Jharkhand. And yes we are talking about the State which will hold Commonwealth next year and most importantly is The Capital of India. The Police Commissioner Proudly says that last year they have reduced amount of RAPES, MURDERS, ROBBERY AND OTHER CRIMES, but he again & again forgets that these cases are those in which Police was made to forcefully lodge the FIR. There are uncountable cases where Police rather throw and kick the victim out of the Chowkis. The Police have only become the biggest “Gunda” of this country, from Hafta Wasooli to Threatening people; they have left no stone of difference unturned.   

Recently I came across a facts that young SCHOOL Boys and even Girls who are studying in so called Reputed English Medium Schools are busy snatching mobiles, bags etc on their unlicensed Bikes. The reason is they have lost all fear of the Law and its Protectors. There is an incident where I was going to the IGI Airport, on the way from CP to IGI, I could see Policemen at every 10 feet while returning I saw but obvious our PM going for his Russian Tour and as he passed each checkpoints, to my surprise I could see all those attentive Policemen suddenly roaming, talking and smoking in groups, again the whole traffic getting confused because all the three Signal Lights are “on” hence no one knows whose turn is it to cross. If this country realizes that the Police is made to protect the PEOPLE and not just the PM (who is in turn made by the People), we can beat the European Nations the very Next Day. Making the situation worst is our Constitution , we are still following that 200 years old UK law which they themselves have completely changed a century back but our makers are still Sleeping or were sleeping when they made it. The CRPC and The IPC completely need a makeover so that The Police is forced by the law to hear all the Victims and not the victimizer. I remember a time when these Policemen lathi charged HUNGRY AND PEACEFUL Protesting Intern Young Doctors (at the Reservation times) on the orders from their Legal Fathers. It was unfortunate that at that time there was not a single strong Student Leader who could make the Police bear the same pain which they were giving to innocent students. The Police can only control those who are defenseless while people like KASAB kick them up and down like anything.

There are two kinds of Justice in our country, the one who knows the law and the other who knows the Law Minister. In Delhi just the Police is not completely at fault. When they try to perform their Duties honestly the first person they catch is either “A Bureaucrat’s son or A MLA’s Son or A MP’s son or nevertheless have some contacts with various Policemen across Delhi” and he is our “legal Dammad” so there is no law written for him. Not only Police even the Judiciary has got many blood stains on their black Suits. Which are highlighted again and again by Media which I seem is the only strong Pillar of this Democracy and is somewhat less rusted by money. Not only the Police needs a makeover, the whole Judicial system needs to look an alternate Heading to deal with the situation. If the Law of the Land is Strong I cannot imagine that any criminal in this country can dare to laugh after being convicted.

I remember a lady called “Kiran Bedi” who completely changed the situation of TIHAR JAIL and now the prisoners that come out are human beings and not criminals or animals. She was the leading contender for the C.P of Delhi but again I guess my second Law of Justice made her to step down and take early retirement. I would at the end like to quote her sentence here “There is LAW and there is RULE but in India there is No RULE OF LAW”.

The Indian Cinema

Author: Mukul / Labels: ,


I guess this started from the movie Raja Harishchandra in late 1913 and today we stand as the largest producer of Movies in the World. Though I am not a Movie Freak as I have hardly been in a theatre but I guess the answer why I don’t go lies in my first line above. Out of 1000 movie made in this country annually hardly any movie has any sense. The Percentage of fruitful & practical movie in India is just 1% according to me. Every Director and Actor comes out saying that his movie is Different and has everything that audience will like, it’s very close to reality and at the end it turns out to be at the very same concept of 2 boys loving the same girl or some twist to the same idea, with some different place where the film is shot and equipped with some nice stunts. This is the only concept I think that 90 % of Indian Directors are revolving their story around for last 2 decades. Apart from these there are some of Kings in the Industry who I believe are just Over Rated Actors. Their main tool is either Showoff of some prop or Style of Clothing. The Basic Sense of Acting is absolutely missing in many. (I am sorry for being so critical but I am being very frank, the whole credibility in Indian Cinema is missing and Apart from infusing Millions of Rupees and Star Dust, there is nothing in most of the movies) Some of the Movies are just blindly copied from some foreign hit and is represented in Indian style. I don't realize with so many topics untouched, why a sensible Director needs to copy someone.

In a country like India which has got a Strong Literature and The long Proof of History, I believe we can Direct Completely Original Scripts and can make the Finest Movies in the World but unfortunately apart from handful of Talented Directors no one is bothered to make sense at the Big Screen. Amir Khan who always comes with a bang is one of those Actors who has kept some standard and limits atleast he has a very good sense of Acting. Few Actors like Naseeruddin Shah, Asrani, Anupam Kher, Kadar Khan, Nana Patekar, Anil Kapoor, Om and Amrish Puri, Kamal Hasan, Rekha, Simi Garewal, Rani Mukherjee, Tabbu, are few of the names who have shown their versatile acting from Theatre Shows to Cinemas. It is very unfortunate that after Mother India we haven’t produced anything to get just nominations at Oscars till Salam Bombay and Lagan. The Movie that Won Oscars for India was nowhere near the Actual India. I still have no idea about which India Mr. Dany Boyle wanted to portray and comparing it with Lagaan I feel that Poltitics and Discrimination again played a leading role at supposed to be one the Most Fair and Reputed Awards. Apart from Rehmann, for me, this movie was just mediocre.  

People really fascinate with Hollywood make movies like Lord of Rings, 300 etc but I guess our Mahabharata is “BAAP of all these Movies”. We just need someone with Guts and Talent to make this for Big Screen. Many Directors by now have tried their hands and failed miserably apart from Legendary B.R.Chopra who is our only success till date.

People ask me why I don’t see movies much. Most Movies can so easily be anticipated and guessed to perfection that there is no interest left whatsoever to waste money on them. The mere concept of every movie is the very same. The few recent movies like A Wednesday, Ghajini, Mumbai Meri Jaan, Nayak, Pukar, Rang De Basanti, Tare Zameen Par, RHTDM & few more made some practical sense to me.

Though I have many more things to say about this topic but I would conclude by saying let the difference be maintained between us and any other Tom Dick and Harry or we will loose all our Creamy Artists if we continue to work in this fashion. Many have already left the Industry and many more are on the way & we will be just left with all over rated actors with complete meaningless and uninteresting stuffs on the big screen. 

And please People there is NO BOLLYWOOD IT IS INDIAN CINEMA …….


PS: The above Blog may offend many but I would appreciate if it is not taken personally as I have a bad habit of writing frankly. These are just a part of my Thoughts and are not at all aimed at anyone.

Kab Tak

Author: Mukul / Labels: , ,


When I write this Blog I remember one line from one of my most Favourite Movie that “We are Resilient by Force and not by Choice”. Indeed that is true. On 26th Nov, 09 we will mark First Anniversary of one of the Most Highlighted attacks. Was it any different from the one in Delhi, Jaipur, Surat and many more? Just the difference was the Live Coverage (that helped Terrorists to kill few more people + NSG) and a Hijack like situation where apart from NSG everyone was confused. What has changed since then? I guess nothing apart from few more NSG hubs and a better Home Minister. Our Coast is still very vulnerable, there is no sharing of Information whatsoever within our states, and Every Authority is playing its own game or rather blame game. Mumbai Police is getting new arms and GPS equipped ships to Patrol Coasts but is that enough, aren’t there 5-6 more states which are coastal and there security is still at Pre-Mumbai level. The owners of Both the Hotels were sorry for the incidence but why was the security of today was not the security of that day? Our PM wants Friendship from those who haven’t charged or filled a case against those Bastards even after 1 year (Sorry I don’t regret that Words).  Our Govt. continues to spend Crores of Rupees on the security of the sole caught Butcher and how shamefully he asks for newspaper and court documents in Urdu only and his choice of food and is supposed to be a clever actor in the Court Room.


The money was given as the compensation to those dead but just ask them have they till date forgotten their lost ones. Was there any single day that they laughed or smiled since then? Are their eyes still Wet? Most probably they haven’t touched that money which was given to them. There was a father who was very happy that his Daughter is the working at the Prestigious TAJ and now he can find a Boy for her and what he gets is her Dead Body.  A woman still runs behind a look alike face of her Husband at the CST Terminal. Today she doesn't know when to laugh and when to cry. She was paid money to forget everything but she doesn’t know what to charge to replace her memories with her dead husband and 2 lost kids. There are people who haven’t lost anyone in that attack but they still start crying when they remember that night, they are the Doctors, Ward boys and Attendants of the JJ and St George Hospital who were in charge to deliver the dead bodies to their crying family members. There are many more unsaid stories which can be read with just a click on Google. The TAJ and The TRIDENT may have started getting back their customers and rather they are more famous because there is a Stone which lights in remembrance for all those Brave souls who died without being told the reason of their meaningless death.  Many stories were left untold and many stories were written with those blood stains but without any resolution. America faced 9/11 once and for all they have changed and till date there has been not a single bird that Americans fear but being faced with such 9/11 on yearly basis,  India has not even moved any single step ahead from yesterday.


But still instead of doing something for the people our shameless Politicians and Ministers continue to fight for the Most Creamy Posts after Maharashtra Elections, then they fight for the language to be used for Oath and at the end of the day they don’t have to do anything apart from blaming each other. I don’t know what lies ahead of us but what I can do is to remember that day and can pay tribute to all those who are not here and May God Bless their families with Force and Patience to bear the pain!!! They don’t stand alone !!!





PS: I dont want to remember it like our Media will do before and after 26/11/09 as their  irresponsible behavior has also claimed few more lives and now paying tribute does not mean anything more than fake cry in my point of view !!!

THE CATTLE CLASS

Author: Mukul / Labels: ,

Mr Shashi Tharoor said these words when he was unwillingly following the Fake Congress’s Austerity Drive, but I guess he said the right words at a very wrong situation. When we board or leave the plane, we all greet the Airhostess with one of the finest English Words with a fake smile but the Real Cattle is not seen at the airport. It is seen when we board Metro in Delhi or Local in Mumbai. We are rather worse then the cattle while walking on the road or taking a metro or driving/parking the car. I mean we don’t have the basic Common Sense or Manners.

This happened today when I stepped out at Rajiv Chowk from Dwarka line Metro to changeover for the Red line. Suddenly I saw mob around the stairs leading to the tunnel/underground Metro. There was some problem with the metro hence the Services was cancelled and so Metro Authorities Genuinely blocked the way so that people don’t unnecessarily step down. But they forgot that we Indians have got this ancestral treasure of doing what is said not to be done. I could see first few people crossing that Bars, then few following them and then most of them STUPIDILY GETTING DOWN WHEN THEY COULD HEAR THE LIVE COMMENTARY BY A METRO PERSON REQUESTING THEM NOT TO GO BECAUSE SERVICES WERE CANCELLED. I could easily calculate that just 10 people were ready to hear him and to follow his instructions while all other desperate CATTLE got down to see themselves if it was actually working or not. Most of them returned within seconds at the very same pace smiling at the guard and telling him that the Train is actually not working. HOW SHAMEFUL IS THAT SMILE? Does that smile show that next time they would heed to what someone say or it was to show that we are born like that and this thing has happened zillion of times and it’s not new? There were College students whose parents are spending almost Lakhs so that their child could get the best of the Education, there were the most EDUCATED PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY – People with the best of the Gadgets of this world in their hands but what they lack is a pity Common Sense.

This is not the first time for me and I am sure all of us have many such experiences when we drive on Road and see a Villagers trying to cross the road on Green light having Subway just 2 steps away. Person spitting on the electric pole like a dog does at the nature’s call. Roads being repaired at the office hours causing huge chaos, street lights working in daylight and not in night. There is a Fire tender but without water. DTC buses make sound from every corner except the horn. Zebra crossing being used by the animals only and that too only when it’s green light for them. A car being parked at the non parking & no tolerance zone, Rickshaws coming absolutely the wrong way, Some Bikers feel that their father owns all the Indian roads and this is the Talent Hunt for next DHOOM’s JOHN so they can drive their highly modernized bikes in any fashion to impress absolutely no one (I bet their Gfs would not even appreciate that stunt or driving skills if its been done for her)

I have written this blog  not because we all don’t know this but because I suppose that next year when there will be People from 70 Nations here in Delhi for The Commonwealth Games, they would click these pictures to show their Family members who are not here to enjoy these moments with them. This is something unprecedented for them. I like my country very much and I hate and refute back when someone abuses our land at our own face but what to do? We cannot even act for those 10 days in a well civilized manner just to show off to the world, so I just hope the Games do not bring Shame to this country as may be Delhi might improve by then but just improving Delhi wont even help.

No one is ready to change; if someone tries to teach these common manners by either awareness programs or either by penalizing then he is called to be the Dictator or Incompetent to deal with the situation, like Dr. Kiran Bedi( First Women IPS Officer) tried to do but was not allowed to take over as the Delhi’s Commissioner of Police because of her tough stands at these issues( She even Towed away Mrs Indira Gandhi's Car parked at No Parking who was PM that time - is just one of her many examples). I feel sometimes that HITLER was born in wrong country. The situation has come that there is need for the toughest of the law for this land not to stop but to educate the Educated Cattles.
