To the Degenerate Idiots in the Delhi Police, Politicians sisters, daughters, mothers and wives do not get raped. They are totally unaffected and could not care less about what is happening around the streets and alleys of their country. It was your lack of responsibilities that led to the gruesome incident on Dec 16, 2012. And yet,…
In the Delhi gang rape case, let the government not consider life imprisonment for the 6 guilty bastards. We citizens do not want to feed and rear such vermin for the rest of their damned lives. Like Juhi Chawla suggested, make the punishment an ‘eye for an eye’. I say, let the punishment be such…
“When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it–always.” – Mahatma Gandhi A friend of mine recently came across an article titled ‘The…
I have never worn a Livestrong wristband, but I could well understand the degree of inspiration, faith and belief that people felt while sporting one of those bands, anywhere around the world. It came from not just any foundation doing work towards a noble cause, but from a foundation that was inspired by a cancer…
A while back I was starting out on an email to a friend and was about to type the common “How are things at your end?” when I was reminded of a conversation I had with a friend some years ago. Whether she probably didn’t think too much while replying, or was in a mighty…
Britain will soon be taking a call on the 280 mn Pound a year development aid it has been providing to India. A bit about it: UK considers India to be a key strategic partner, and it also realized some years ago, that while India has been growing at a rapid pace, it still is…
How Vijay and Siddharth Mallya are handling the whole Kingfisher Airline fiasco is appalling. In a similar situation, way back, Richard Branson sold his first and extremely-close-to-his-heart business, Virgin Records at the insistence of financial institutions, so that the resulting funds could be infused into Virgin Atlantic. He supposedly cried the day the company was sold to EMI….
Respect Women Is it really that difficult to see, or am I missing something? 19 rapes have taken place in a span of one month in Haryana. I simply cannot wrap my head around the supposed solution doing the rounds, where people are considering lowering the marriageable age for girls to 15-16 years. Are we…
Is it Real Estate India, or Real Pest Ate India? 350 acres of land acquired for public interest by the Haryana government given to DLF for possibly a song. DLF gave Rs. 65 crore of unsecured loans to Vadra to purchase DLF properties at highly discounted prices. Share capital of Vadra’s companies went from Rs.50…
State Home Minister R R Patil came up with a brainwave idea to curb crimes against the elderly in the city. His idea is, that every policeman must ‘adopt’ (take responsibility) of a senior citizen. What do some people have for breakfast? Policemen in our city, and across the country are underpaid, overworked, and hardly…
This post is long overdue. And it is inspired by a dialog from the Hindi movie ‘Ferrari ki Sawaari‘. I had wanted to post about it soon after watching the movie when it had released several months ago. However, it’s screening on tv a few days ago reminded me to complete this post soon. Ferrari…
I dropped into the Big Bazaar store for a bit last night (not out of choice, if you must know). But I must say, they’ve really re-done the place, in a good way. Impressive, must say. The section as soon as I entered, was for clothes, and it looked like a section at the more…
A 27-year-old Amit Katarnaware does not seem to have a problem with corrupt politicians and bureaucrats eating the nation alive, drinking the nation dry. But he does have a problem with a few cartoons that just attempt to depict the sorry state those corrupt people in power have brought this nation to. . . How convenient…

It’s a small effort towards a safer experience, for motorists as well as for pedestrians. “Zensible Motoring – An Effort Towards Better Road Safety” …
Remember that scene in Sleepy Hollow, where the roots of the tree of the dead open up to allow the headless horseman through? My neighbors have their very own little Sleepy Hollow going on here 🙂
