Where is Rs. 5 ????

The Markets may have been at a record high. The financial status of large caps might have gone north. But those small and medium sector enterprises which are the backbone of people's life has gone drastically south. Due to #DEMO and #GST the consumers and traders are hit hard. Although I have written many posts raising this issue, I certainly feel a need to write this especially at the time when Congress has performed better in Gujarat reflecting people's sentiments against these policies. The PM has been trying to bring alternate healthcare services like Organic/Traditional natural products in the market and appreciable in terms of bringing up life, medical and accident insurances for all the common man especially who are poor and can't afford. Yoga has been made a practice in many schools. One Nation - One Rule - One Tax - One Policy  - A scheme which time only will tell if it receives a favorable response from the people. The agenda of this post is to describe how ...

Gujarat Results and its Impact

The entire nation is glued now to know the polls result of Gujarat. The entire nation nation had dismissed Manmohan Singh's poor governance, corruption and policy inefficiencies by bringing a strong leader in Modi. We all had high hopes on Modi. Although he has been taking lots of good measures in improving the infrastructure, they are still in the initial stages and would require at least 5 years to see good results out of it. Certain policy changes like Demonetization, Aadhar link and GST implementation has hit the common man hard while the reforms like these are attributed towards building an organized nation. The problem is that the common man and small, medium businesses are most affected by these implementations. The Govt could have taken soft and slow steps in implementing it but the rush, velocity and aggressiveness has been felt and taken hard by the common man. We still are to see more advancements in medical, science, health and space technologies. Defense is one sect...

Messi/Ronaldo - Who's the Best??

I start with congratulating Cristiano Ronaldo for his 5th Ballon D'or win and squaring Messi's record. For over 11 years the rivalry was on, comparing them both and assessing who's the best. Few might have got answers, few might take sides but many are still searching for the answer. Here on this special occasion when C. Ronaldo has equaled Messi's record, I try to bring my point of view on who's the best... 1. C. Ronaldo has won Ballon D'or with 2 teams that plays football in a different style. He has won with Manchester United (1) and Real Madrid (4). Messi has been a one man club so far. Ronaldo 1 - 0 Messi 2. Messi enjoys ball throughout the game. Barcelona is a Messi centered club with Guardiola being the reason to find Messi's talent in scoring goals. Since then he has been a goal scoring machine for the club. At times he's also involved in the midfield trying to help him all the way from a long distance, taking long runs, beating defende...

The Poet in me

The habit of writing started for me sometime during early Jan 2007. I started getting to it for the sake of my friends. To be a stress buster and to do time pass, it all started. I chose Poems initially coz they could be written within 10 minutes and I felt them to consist of lots of values. I began to write about my friends and about work in IT. The response I got was good which made my involvement more in writing. Thus I began being a blogger and my first organization provided a perfect platform to showcase talents. The blogging space was most loved and most followed in a day by many new joiners like me. Although I didn't meet the characteristics required for a Blogger, I was there in that space admiring many of fellow writers like me, learning new things and making new friends online in that virtual space. My passion for poetry was ignited by the massive response I received for my variety of poems. Almost 75% of my writings were inclined towards poetry. I felt somehow expr...

Atheism - A Fashion?

Ever since this universe got created and mankind was born, the faith on God existed. He was considered to be the supreme power - the creator of all. Dozens of Ramavatars and Krishnavatars were believed to have been happened spanning hundreds of thousands of years. The total lifecycle was considered cyclic with the current Kalyug to have been completed over a dozen times. Vedas, Religion, Spirituality flourished in India and our contry is considered to be the home of God. Over 80 lacs living things and crores of Gods in various forms were believed to exist. Most of our epics and stories were based on Gods and of their different Avatars. The way we live our life was based on the categorizations made in Vedas. Although we have deviated largely from them due to the advacement in Science and Technology, there are still people who live the defined way, by staying dedicated to Gods and of their worship. The very new concept of Atheism was born over two centuries ago mainly as a result o...

2 Films ~ #SalmanKhan

It was 2006 Diwali. Exactly a year after I moved to Mudichur (near Tambaram) and heavy rains slashed Chennai leaving thousands of families in distress with severe floods. It didn't repeat again in 2006 with Chennaittes hoping for a sound Diwali celebration. It was a Grand Diwali with 2 big Bollywood films Jaan-E-Mann and Don releasing on the same day. Being a Salman Khan fan for over 21 years now and a little over 9 years then (during Jaan-E-Mann release), I was hyper excited with the trailer and the fresh songs. The songs had a big build up to the movie with lavish sets, outdoor locations and being made on a huge budget. The beats of the music were not the usual ones Bollywood had seen. It was so youthful and trendy. The music did wonderfully by beating Don in an instant. I liked almost all the songs from it. The movie was under consistent news anad made headlines for all good reasons something unknown of especially being a Salman Khan film. I wanted the movie to break all b...

Addiction

Lost into the mobile phones Buried inside the Internet Boy, feels like he has the crown Playing video games day and night He's a star, He's a Fighter Shoots all the terrorists like a Commander Stays online all the time For him, this's not a crime Beats all opponents by racing @ 100 km per hour The destination for him isn't too far Slides down the slopes, jumps buildings Gets too much glooed seeking his new findings Forgets the world, forgets love Breaks limits, breaks his vow Completely dissloved into this virtual game Not ready to take the blame Gone too far, too wild He's turned almost blind Not a fan of the blowing wind He's stubborn to be with the current trend Blocks everything, blocks the world Loses friends, loses good memories Buried inside this virtual world He's game for trendy play stories
