Why blog to Why blog...One long trip It was'nt exactly the lack of ideas that kept me away from blogging, but it was rather a case of ideas not being able to do enough justice to laziness. The nuclear deal with US was'nt only about energy resources.It was about the nation with the largest number of people below the poverty line agreeing to be a part of the whole Eco-Political setup which United States is trying to impose on the world.'With us or against us',as...

It was the day which came to labelled as Black monday, when four blasts rocked mumbai killing many and injuring a lot more. It happened all over again last saturday.Similar blasts,similar calls and a similar sight of blood and gore on television screens.

It is usually a random stranger you somehow bump into,but there are chances that it could be your neighbour or some long lost relative as well who seems more concerned about tour career and future than you are.

As the time passed, I found myself singing nursery rhymes,reading mishas/amar chitra katha,not doing homework,matriculating,playing cricket,joining college,bunking lectures,.quizzing,graduating.. ;It also took the same time span for the nation to realize that riots of 1984 were little more than accidental.That Jagdish Tytler is probably guilty, .That Kamalnath,Sajjan kumar and Tandon were also ‘probably involved’ . 1984 according to orwells predictions, would be the year when the world would be reeling under...
