Welcome Monsoon, make us all fresh and cool, a season of rain and rain and rain……., puddles, pools and flooding. It is a season that makes every malayalee nostalgic, it brings the warmth memories of our childhood days, the days we gamed under the rain over the puddles and pools, the days we made our fresh white uniform to a thick mud holder. All are still afresh in our minds as it happened yesterday. Yet another monsoon season is here, let us all enjoy the cool and cosy days ahead.

It happens again and again in India, Jaipur was the last place to victimized. Killing over 80 innocent people, majority of them was Hindus. Some fanatic Muslim terrorist group has already taken the responsibility. I don’t know what have they gained and I what are they up to. But I know one thing that these arrogant fanatics are nothing but cowards, who doesn’t have a noble cause as well as a backbone to come in front of the people and do their ‘Holy Jihad’.

As far as our honorable UPA government is concerned, they have done their routine farce. They had condemned “this despicable act of terrorism”, appeals for communal harmony, announced some financial relief to the family of victims, so that they will keep quiet and promptly buries the whole thing, orders a ‘tooth and nail’ inquiry to the matter and there ends all. The citizens of this democratic country slowly forgets everything and those cowards are safe on the loose, planning a better attack over a next peaceful place. Look in comparison at how quickly the perpetrators of the London train bombings were caught, or those of the Madrid train bombs, whereas the ‘Jihadis‘ of the Mumbai train blast are still free.

There is no way well coordinated, well-timed criminal acts such as the one in Jaipur or the Mumbai train blast can be done, without not only local support, but also of a strong hatred against Hindus among some of the local Muslim population. I wonder why do Indian Muslims not coming out more openly to condemn these acts of terrorism. The impression wrongly created, is that there is some support for these acts among Indian Muslims.

If the people of India doesn’t wake-up against this motherless cowards at least by now, then it will be the people, the citizens of India, who will be the biggest losers. Hence I humbly request you all to rose against this ‘Jihadism‘ and wipe of those culprits, who are involved and help ourselves to live in peace.

JAI HIND !

It has been a pretty long time, since I made a post on my blog. Though I started away with a few write-ups at the start of this year, I couldn’t continue the flow. For the past few months, I was actually on a vacation (a hideout). I was indeed hoping for some changes in my life. Alas it didn’t happen. Moreover my work ground (British Library-the vast knowledge base) was shut down. They (the authorities) said it was due to some administrative decisions. Whatever may be the reason, indeed it was a huge blow to me. I lost track of the information that I conceived every day. It was like taking the eyes off from my face. For some time I had to adjust with the darkness. My routine was disturbed. I was forced to compromise my precious energy to find new vistas. It was a period of stress and strain. The trauma was  bit painful. But I had to strive hard to sustain my life.

And time passed..now after those stressful months when I look back, it gives me a sort of confidence, a sort of fresh energy that inspires me to live ahead.

I feel like scribbling again in my blog. I find everyday as a new chapter of events. I find something in everything I see, so that I feel like describing it and so here I am after a long vacation.

HAPPY 2 00 8 to all HUMAN beings………!

An year of mixed trends – nothing much to praise about, but something there to think about. As we look back through 2007, the main events that hit the news were rising oil prices, diminishing dollar, elections in the Europe and the South America, increased tensions in Iraq and the troubled Palestine, some of the space shuttling by the NASA, and at-last the brutal assassination of Benazir Bhutto to end with.

And thus goes an year of mixed trends and dramas. As for me 2007 was of something that gave only a routine life and not much of a color to spell about.

Let us wish the coming year realizes our hopes and dreams. Let 2008 be an year of happiness and prosperity. At least let us believe 2008 be an year that will make our mother Earth a little bit better place to live in.

So what is AIDS? As every one knows, the expansion is Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, and that is the only clear knowledge that the commons has about AIDS, but how it is acquired – though we specify some of the factors we are not so sure that whether they are the only factors that spread this devil. How effectively we can cure this and how effectively we can prevent this – these are areas still on discussion.  Lot of malignancies still prevail about AIDS, when and how are this going to be cleared are still unknown.

AIDS has become a celebration for the celebrities, and those of the soaps. Inumerous funds are being collected world wide for the cure and the prevention. Infact AIDS itself now enjoys the role of super celebrity. Have all this created a sense of knowledge among the people about what it is and why it is?

At the present situation the only thing that we, the commons can do is stick to all kind of available knowldge and be vigilent about this malicious predator. Keep aloof from the immorals of life and be very very careful in open treatments of various other diseases. Because that will throw open the doors for this enemy to get in.

On this occasion of the WORLD AIDS DAY, let all of us stick together and pledge together to be prepared to fight this vicious predator away from this planet as soon as we can.

He is heard to rejoin with Renault. It is said that the relationship of the Spaniard with McLaren was getting strained. Anyway the team has wished him all the best in his future. So from the next season we will see Alonso wearing on his old blue team suit.

I happened to read ‘THE SHACKLED CONTINENT’, a book on Africa, by Robert Guest. It depicts, in simple words, about the doomed continent. It throws open in white all the present day evils, and intensity of it in ‘THE SHACKLED CONTINENT’. When I go through the pages, it invokes sympathy as well as a terror that tells my inner self that it can even happen in my own country. When we all view the recurrent photographs and video footages from Africa, we ease ourselves with a feeling that it only happens there. But think again for a moment, it can even happen among you.

I wish the world would have been a better a place to live-in, where there are no (boundaries,  cross-border terrorism, cold-war, poverty, corruption…..). Will it happen? May be a YES! or might be NO!. If it happens then even gods will envy us.

9/11 – A Tribute

But with many of India’s 1.1 billion people being left behind by the country’s lightning economic growth, Singh warned: “we must not be overconfident.”

The fault lines that have so long divided India were also apparent Wednesday with security tight across the country, especially in places where insurgencies are simmering, such as Kashmir, where mobile phone service was shut down in a bid to prevent the usual Independence Day violence.

Singh, however, focused on the challenge of spreading prosperity to all in a country where children are more likely to be malnourished than in Africa and that is home to about a third of the people in the world living on less than US$1 a day.

“India cannot become a nation with islands of high growth and vast areas untouched by development, where the benefits of growth accrue only to a few,” he told a crowd of thousands of dignitaries and schoolchildren dressed in the orange, white and green of the Indian flag.

Singh spoke from behind a bulletproof screen atop the ramparts of the historic Red Fort, the massive 17th-century sandstone structure built by the Mogul emperors who ruled much of modern-day India before the British arrived.

His speech touched on a range of domestic issues — from plans to invest 250 billion rupees (US$6.25 billion; €4.60 billion) in agriculture, which provides a livelihood for two-thirds of Indians, to improving schools in the country where a third of the people remain illiterate.

“Gandhi’s dream of a free India will only be fully realized when we banish poverty from our midst,” Singh said, referring to independence leader Mohandas Gandhi.

He also pledged to press ahead with industrialization and build “first-rate infrastructure” — moves that in the past year have led to repeated clashes between police and farmers who don’t want their land plowed under to make way for factories.

Conspicuously absent from his speech was any talk of neighboring Pakistan — India’s longtime rival.

India and Pakistan gained independence when the departing British split the subcontinent in 1947 — and saw it quickly overshadowed by one of the most violent upheavals of the 20th century.

Some 10 million people moved across borders in one of history’s largest mass migrations as the princely states sewn together in 200 years of British rule were divided into Muslim Pakistan, which celebrated its independence Tuesday, and Hindu-majority India. Up to one million were killed in the accompanying sectarian violence.

Pakistan’s independence came a day earlier than India’s so that the last British viceroy, Lord Louis Mountbatten, could attend both ceremonies.

In the six decades since, the South Asian rivals have fought three wars and engaged in tit-for-tat nuclear tests.

While relations have improved since the start of a peace process in 2004, mutual animosity still lingers across the subcontinent, a territory stretching more than 3,000 kilometers (nearly 1,900 miles) from Pakistan’s mountainous north to India’s steamy southern tip.

Aside from its rivalry with Pakistan, India also faces dozens of insurgencies by separatist rebels claiming to represent one of the country’s myriad ethnic groups.

In Himalayan Kashmir, a predominantly Muslim region split between India and Pakistan, an Islamic insurgency has raged since 1989.

In the remote northeast, there are dozens of rebel groups representing the region’s diverse population. Five bomb blasts were reported Wednesday in Assam, the region’s main state, but no one was killed or wounded.

Ethnic Assamese rebels have in the past week killed 32 people, most of them migrant workers from others parts of India who speak a different language and have different customs.
