Bhanwari Devi Case - Hollywood Thriller !

I have been following the 'Bhanwari Devi Murder case' for a few months now, just like every other high profile case from 'Desi Land' that finally gets dumped and closed with 'NO JUSTICE'.

TIMES OF INDIA's thoughts are right so far in equating this case with a HOLLYWOOD Thriller.  All the events that have unfolded so far looks like a OSCAR movie too, in my opinion. I won't be surprised to see a Bolly/Tolly/Kolly/Hollywood movie soon based on this case !

In the Hollywood movies, the ending would be 'PRISON' for the ones who committed the crime (99%).  

I hope this sad story also ends the 'HOLLYWOOD MOVIE' way.

Looking forward to Justice being served here.  We'll see !

வாழ்க ஜனநாயகம்!

Cattle Class

Shashi Tharoor made an innocent remark on 'Cattle Class', and the 'Canine Class' woke up asking for his blood.

I'd like to ask the 'Canine Class':

• Don't you use the people as cattle during election campaigns?
• Don't you see school kids travelling in vehicles dumped like cattle?
• Don't you treat the people like cattle?

Then why is your blood boiling when someone makes a remark about 'Cattle Class' ?

Teen thrown out of train !

In August, Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh admitted his country was faced with "pervasive corruption".

Thanks Prime Minister, I know it and I have experienced it from Birth Certificate to Death Certificate. Nothing new here !

So, what's the action plan Sir?

Desi Celebrities and Criticism

If you ever watched Jay Leno, David Letterman, John Stewart or Steven Colbert you'll know what I am talking about.

If you've watched CNN, FOX, NBC, ABC, CBS you'd know what I am talking about.

In fact you'd know it, if you read the newspapers , magazines and the Internet.

I am talking about about the Celebrities here in the USA. It includes every celeb from the President level on.

All of the above mentioned media criticize, comment, investigate and interview the celebs and pose so many difficult questions during interviews.

Nine out of ten times, the celebs handle it very well. They evade but they don't get angry. The politicians, don't use their power to manhandle the reporters or cause damage to the news agencies.

But...................

Consider the same in 'Desi Land'. How do the Celebs handle all this? Nine out of ten times, they walk away, go on the defense and even threaten the media ( If a reporter had the guts to ask some tough questions ! )

Politicians - OMG, I don't want to even go there. Many reporters for the fear of their lives would never go near politicians in Desi land. There are a few exceptions, though I don't know what happened to those reporters ( Does anyone know where Rabi Bernad is ? )

Bottom line

Desi Celebs can't handle criticism!

Indian Media - Shameless, Spineless

India, Indian Media - copies the west from paper towels to pens and clips to pots and pans to Papparazi !!

Indian TV goes into the nostrils of the common man to get viewership. Indian TV covers natural disasters and other events just like how it is done here in the west risking the lives of reporters. Indian TV-shows take pride in making the famous Western shows for its own viewers. ( Kaun Banega ...etc..)

But, Indian Media doesn't do something which is done here. They don't expose the politicians and their activities especially during elections. I am sure all of you would have seen how Pres. Obama, Sarah Palin and John Mccain were whisked by the media.

John Kerry lost his election a few years back thanks to the Media !!

I am surprised that the Desi Channels, even Headlines Today ( an arm of the famous India Today Magazine), covers the IPL mostly !!

Knowing India, I am sure it's the fear they have, that stops the media from exposing politicians. Afterall , how can someone be alive, if they report the corrupt activities of a politician - especially during election times ?

It's shameful - But Politicians rule in India ! - Vande Mataram !

Shame on you - Congress Party of India

This is the same guy who brought a lot of shame to Indian cricket a few years back. The 47-year-old cricketer , Mohd. Azharuddin was banned for life from Indian cricket after match fixing allegations in 2000.

I agree, he hasn't been convicted yet but I am also aware of the 'Law of the land' that prevails in my homeland ( especially for the rich and powerful ).

There is this curious case of a famous cricketer by name 'Navjot Sidhu', who managed to get out after (alleged) getting involved in a murder. FYI - This guy is also in Lok Sabha now !

People from the subcontinent will be aware of several members sitting in the State Assemblies and in New Delhi, who possibly have criminal connections. It's a known fact that they can't be convicted thanks to the power and money !

I am even more ashamed today, that Mohd. Azharuddin is contesting in Lok Sabha Polls under a Congress ticket.

Shame on you Ms.Sonia Gandhi and the Congress party for playing the Glamor card again, using a cricketer who brought shame to India and Indian Cricket not long ago.

PS - Why isn't there an outcome in this case ? Can't the courts say 'Yes' or 'No'? Isn't this a very important case in a country that is so obsessed with cricket?

All for Water

These are the things the politicians do:

Create animosity
Induce violence
Create panic
Damage property
Damage lives
Cause inconvenience
Disrupt normal life

Chennai: Even though the dates for Karnataka Assembly elections have been announced, the state has locked horns with Tamil Nadu over the Hogenakkal water issue.

Tamil Nadu saw stray incidents of violence and a black out of Kannada channels on the issue and not just the Central Government, even Tamil cinema's superstar Rajnikanth is in a tight spot.

What the politicians can't ( will not ) do:

Try for a permanent solution
Desalinate sea water
Connect rivers where water flows into the Ocean
Deepen tanks, lakes
Remove encroachements in lakes to store water

USE THEIR BRAIN FOR CONSTRUCTIVE PURPOSES.

Raj Thackeray and Maharashtra CM

There is news going around the webworld that the Govt. of Maharashtra won't hesitate to arrest Raj Thackeray is there is solid evidence.

Mumbai, February 7: Maharashtra Govt will not hesitate to arrest MNS chief Raj Thackeray and Samajwadi Party leader Abu Azmi if there is ‘strong evidence’ of their involvement in recent violence sparked by MNS' anti-North Indian campaign, Deputy Chief Minister R R Patil said.

I laugh when I read such stories. 'Evidence' and then 'Solid Evidence'.

Comeon Mr. Patil you think you have the guts to do that ? Even if you can do that he'll be out in a flash thanks to his connections.

Can you please answer these questions for me ?

What happened to the Bombay train blast case that happened a few years back?

What happened to the molestation case of New Years eve?

Has anyone been arrested so far?

Has Justice been served?

Well - Well - That's our political system.

BANGALORE: The former Chief Minister B. S. Yeddyurappa on Monday charged the former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda and his sons with resorting to “black magic” to finish him off. “I am facing a threat to my life. I know the places where they did pujas under black magic. I will write to the Home Department on Tuesday complaining against the black magic of Mr. Gowda and his sons. They will be responsible if anything happens to my life,” he said.


Mr. Yeddyurappa - Please remember that Bangalore became the Silicon Valley of India thanks to the brains and not due to Black Magic and all such nonsense !

If black magic works, Can Mr.Deve Gowda eliminate poverty in India? Can he stop Global Warming ? Can he atleast stay awake in public meetings ?
