Delhi election results is a beginning of Young India Movement

Young India is in despair, angry and often helpless due to extravagant approach and attitude of ‘I know it all’ politicians whose style and functioning have generally splinted their own fraternity in covering one another faults and crimes.  They dug under the pretext of wisdom and experience and prevented Young India in giving any space for active participation in politics.  Wisdom and experience may have its association with time, but not necessarily connected with the advancement of age only.  The old horses were pulling India at their own speed and clamped the progress of the country; otherwise, the natural growth is often pulling the country out of woods.  The law of natural growth is taken as the personal achievement of some of the political parties and individuals and failed to give necessary impetus to nation for the growth it deserved. 

Young India is pushed to IT corridors, university campus, night clubs, employment offices, street corners and used as a donkeys to carry the loads of past.  The overwhelming burden of past pushes Young India to the competition of ‘survival of fittest’ and allowed the old horses to run the nation the way they want.  Indian politicians have created their fort and classes and never allowed the common man in sharing the dais.  The servants have become the masters and have successfully created mass slaves in the name political party, religious and cast divisions and vote banks.     

India’s history is more or less married to destiny and it always happens like an accident.  The Anti Corruption Movement, our own Arab Spring have contributed to the birth of new political party, because, it is essential for us to fight within the system even if we need to change the system.  AAP’s birth was a destiny to reshape the Indian political map.  Young India has rightly taken up the opportunity through AAP and the victory in Delhi is the right momentum and a great beginning for a new political India.

The grand old political parties and politicians would be waiting to trumpet the mistakes of Young India politicians and will try to set the rules of game.  It is the responsibility of Young India, not to lose the patience and refrain from playing to their hands.  Young India should set the rules and keep the momentum and initiative with us.  Let the old war horses play to our tune.  

The bottom up politics infused by AAP in Delhi election is the right strategy to connect with people and share the political administration of the country.  People being the stake holders of the nation need to be connected at all level and with not just by communication, but by engagement.    


Democracy has proved once again in India that people are the masters of the country, neither the rulers nor the administrators. Democracy plays vital role in developing a nation and India is a proof, especially with multi cultural, lingual and religious environment.  Democracy allows everyone to grow without intervening in others progress.  Long live India.

Expatriates and challenges

‘People who are looking to own a first home by living in a second home’ is my definition for gulf expatriates. In 70 and 80s millions of expatriates were brave enough to go to gulf countries in search for a decent life. Today, these left over millions, especially in Saudi Arabia are questioning their bravery, in fact, wondering was it worth! Often this group looks so naïve and foolish in front their own cousins who have built better job career, businesses and life in their countries against multiple odds. It is not a major worry for people who migrated in end of nineties or early two thousands, because these particular groups have the advantage of age in addition to better professional educational qualification to find jobs in their home country or elsewhere. They are also not far away from the social and business environments of their home countries. They can relatively mingle with existing social circumstances and relocate with certain ease. The question remains more disquietin...

Uniform Civil Code - Divide and Win

BJP government has suddenly taken up the Uniform Civil Code in the name of gender equality, harmony and progressiveness.  One India and One Law is the concept and has been heavily funded by some media companies in promoting pan India animosity among various political parties and communities.  One India and One Law can be catchy and media friendly to increase the TRP of television channels, but not even one percent of GDP growth.  Is One India and One Law is the forerun for One India One Language; One India One Culture; One India One Religion; One India and One ethnic, etc?      Media started discussing and debating the law commission questionnaire issued on 7 th October and we have conveniently moved away from surgical strikes and increasing terror attacks on border area.  Nevertheless, it is the arrogance of Law commission that prepared a questionnaire in an irrelevant and negative format like a school children survey questionnaire. I have...

Ayodhya Verdict

A historical verdict evokes three different responses. Before I explain the responses, I consider it historic, because the verdict does not limit within the legal domains and suggest the parties to move forward with compromising formula of joint possessions or joint holders of the property. It is historic, because the judges thought about the social implications, which is again beyond the legal purview and practices in India. Rarely judges show their vision of social implications on positive direction and therefore, we must appreciate the panel of judges, though one of them categorically dismissed relief to Muslims and awarded the entire property to Hindu parties. It took sixty one years to decide on the title holders, but largely based on the belief, practices and utilization of the property in the absence of valid or clear documents and entitlements. No victory or loss – proclaimed by RSS parivars including BJP. A base for reconciliation – thumped by other political parties and i...
