Why Bihar should not vote for Congress

As the election draws near, politicians get more candid and their indulgence in personal fights becoming graver. There are offerings, someone promising rice @ 2 Rs/kg, someone equality by removing computers and English and preserving poverty, someone will fight against terrorist how still remains a question, someone taking cover of pretty faces, promising to decrease the ugliness quotient of Indian Parliament. The festivity of largest democracy, nearing elections in its full color. For the people It’s the time to recall and undo the deeds, relished upon them by some of incompetent governments they had in the past. I would avoid taking any names as I progress but intended people can be recognized and vividly imagined. At the centre of the story is INC India’s oldest political party. This party may have rightly served India but from my observation they are the ones responsible for destruction/demolition of Bihar. Couple of decades ago they gave a leader to the state which was self...

Why can’t a woman become a philosopher

One day, I found myself arbitrarily contemplating the enigma of the female mind—a thought that has intrigued me time and again. The answer, however, remains elusive, buried in an abyss beyond reach. Cracking the IIT or IIM entrance exams seems far easier in comparison. Just when I think I've discerned a pattern, the very next interaction defies it. Understanding when a woman is being truthful or merely reshaping reality to gain an advantage in the next moment is an art that no science has yet mastered. And the most formidable weapon? Tears. Even the gods falter in their presence. Rationality collapses, and one is left adoring whatever she desires. Many battles—both historical and personal—have been waged over this very predicament. But if the female mind is so intricate and sharp, why are there so few renowned female philosophers? This question led me to investigate, and to my pleasant surprise, I found a long list of female philosophers. Yet, they remain relatively unheard of in e...

Emerging catastrophes due to rising global temperatures

--> Heatwaves have struck North India; the temperatures have risen without any respite in the near future. Coupled with contamination of the atmosphere with construction debris and vehicle emissions, Indian cities have been rendered as a pathetic place to live. We will need to start preparing for the series of catastrophes that will befall us on our way to adapt to life at warmer temperatures. We are bringing online at least 1000 new coal fire burning plants, one per week in China alone. India is catapulting itself to catch up, with its frugal savings and foreign investments. These foreign investments want Indians to consume assuming that resources are infinite and there are no entropy disturbances in the process. We will add 2 billion additional automobiles onto the world’s highways and fossil fuel engines will still power 70% of them. We have now changed our atmosphere that has been stable for the last 650,000 years by digging up ancient sunlight stored in plants t...

Changing Social Cognition of Bihar

I know a lot is being said about the changing dynamics of the state. My surprise findings in the last one month stay in Bihar is the change in people’s behavior. Earlier people use to be arrogant, impatient, short tempered and totally uncivil in nature. The relentless corruption, poor administration, rising population and diminishing job prospects, social division, large dependence on fraud and cheating to sustain livelihood, depleted education system resembling the pre-independence era, shaggy infrastructure, non-existent judicial system and dead industries were causing frustration among the people. The ominous result of these accrued frustrations was quite visible in their behavior. Let’s not forget that the above mentioned factors were result of poor-governance (a governing body which itself had common Bihar touch, so what was needed was a government which can insulate its ministers and aides from these social norms which obviously would require sacrificing the comfort of power a...

200 ml of milk @ Rs 17

One fine evening, I asked a grocery shop for 200 ML of milk packet. It cost me Rs. 17/- . It came in a tetra pack with some flavor. I bought the milk and was happy that for the time being my energy needs would be satisfied. High cost is not a deterrent for me. Usually in villages in 17 Rs one can buy more than a liter of milk, mind you. In the end of the last sip I was left in the lurch, when I was looking for a dustbin to throw away the left over packaging material of the milk. I walked few 100 meters then saw a place where I could throw away my empty pack and the scene was what shocked me. The whole area of around an acre or so lay covered with such packets and plastics everywhere. Then I hit on two subject is this globalization helping cut down the cost or we simply using more material and energy to deliver 200 ml of milk to the end customer. The cost of 200 ml of milk is now Rs. 17/- Then I quickly realized the Gandhian Philosophy of local sufficiency and sustainability and why su...

Why the people of Bihar should not vote for Congress

As elections draw near, politicians become more candid, indulging in personal attacks that grow graver by the day. Promises are made—some offer rice at ₹2 per kg, others vow to uphold equality by eliminating computers and English, effectively preserving poverty. There are those who pledge to fight terrorism, though how remains a mystery. Meanwhile, some take cover behind glamorous faces, vowing to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the Indian Parliament. The grand festival of the world's largest democracy is in full swing. For the people, this is a time of reckoning—an opportunity to reflect on past governance and undo the damage inflicted by incompetent administrations. I will refrain from naming individuals, but those familiar with the political landscape will recognize the figures in question. At the heart of this discussion lies the Indian National Congress (INC), the country’s oldest political party. While it once played a significant role in shaping India, I believe it bears r...

Star-war: framework to analyze existing world problems

A movie made in early 1977 very soon became a prodigy of the era to an extent that still divulge the problems associated with modern democracy, trade system (corporate) and the evil forces (terrorism, imperialistic , anarchy and dictatorship). The movie is a setup in a far away Galactic Empire where billions of inhabited rational living being (not only homosapiens) living on different planets has adopted a democratic style of living by bringing all their planets under the rule of a central assembly. The main regulatory body is the central assembly consisting of wise and selfless senators elected from these planets. To protect democracy from evil forces and crush coups, the democracy has developed army of valiant soldiers known as Jedi Knights. The agenda for fight especially in the movie is between Jedi knights who are helping regulatory authority to maintain peace and justice and protect the people of empire (democracy) from evil forces. Just as the creeping shadows of war, race-riots...

Award politics for commonwealth countries and crappy white tiger

There is an easy thwart to divide and rule policy of British Raj in modern world so they have decided to take on the third world countries by some other means. Through recent award gimmicks they have tried to make mockery of the developing nations and a desperate attempt to prove that new world order lacks elegance and beauty. Reminds me of decrepit tactics to take on the enemy from behind lacking in courage and strength to take them head on. What best than encouraging and promoting, literature which depicts certain characteristics of Indian civilization as sufferings and underdevelopment. If you analyze the Booker been awarded to Indians in last decade then you can see a similar pattern in both the books .The god of small things (a pervert story) and White Tiger (self loathing). Both the books have presented crude, rustic picture of India and Indian cities. What White Tiger writes about India is of a nearly feudal society camouflaged as a democracy. He portrays that India shines, is n...
