Would you not simply dismiss crazy if I were to begin the process of re-inventing the wheel? Would you not simply laugh if I were to say that the process of re-inventing the wheel is but scientific advancement? Almost 60 years ago Russia & USA have landed their ‘Chandrayan’ on the moon. China did the […]

THE NUMBER OF ELECTIONS PER YEAR AND VOTING
Casually Googled / Binged: “The number of elections, on an average, does a voter needed to vote in India per year”. This enquiry did not elicit any suitable reply. I do not know which part or the Article of the Constitution of India talks of elections every 5 years. Nor am I interested to know. […]
SWACHH BHARAT PLEDGE
I do not think the present Swachh Bharat Pledge is effective. It feels that it was authored by an inexperienced person. I made an effort to rewrite it so that swachhta becomes a way of life for all Indians. Any suggestions for improvement are welcome. SWACHH BHARAT PLEDGE as is now:https://swachhbharat.mygov.in/basic-page/take-pledge SWACHH BHARAT PLEDGE as […]
What is the Name of our Country?
What is the Name of our Country – I met the charming young ladies at Native Village, Nookapalli. Their mothers came as daily wagers to do the construction work. Their (i.e., the daily wagers) names are M/s Radha and Mallavva. These three charming beauties came to meet their mothers. They are M/s: 1. K. Santhoshi, […]
So long…Reddy Saab!!!
Gone to father’s house this morning at 6.30 am, as usual. Yes. I do miss him. In the cot he slept, in the plate he ate, in the wooden chair he sat, in the left over unused sealed medicines, in the stale smell of his closed house, in the calendar that is forever stuck on […]
The Barber Worker of Telangana
I first met Mr. Korutla Ravi / Ravinder when he visited my house at the Nookapalli village near Jagtial to cut my hair. He is the village barber. He is professional in his work and knows the nuances of his trade well. He wore a dirty worn-out jean and a soiled shirt. His feet were […]
GOLDEN AGE OF PEACE & PLENTY – MAN ATE MAN
Prior to the British era, the History of India was a history of princes, not of peoples. Under no regime of any recorded period, did the people’s welfare determine any Indian ruler’s policy. The people lay like clots of helpless insects beneath their master’s feet. Because of forgotten sin in some forgotten life (Karma), the […]
Goddess Kali’s Thugs
The Thugs are the devotees of Goddess kali. KALI is that God whose tongue forever lolls in unquenchable thirst for human blood. Thuggee is an ancient secret and hereditary brotherhood. It was prevalent almost all over India. Thugs worked in gangs. The victims of the Thugs, as a rule, were people travelling on the main […]
Zindagi Bahut Choti Hai
A famous cinema dialogue of Shah Rukh Khan – “Zindagi Bahut Choti Hai”. The exact English translation will be Life is Very Short. This became famous – it is a household saying in India. Everyone believes in this statement; the truth of the statement is self-explanatory. However, I beg to differ with all who said […]
The Real Terrorists
We the Hindus wrongly accuse and suspect the followers of Muslim faith to be radical. We concluded that being a Muslim is equivalent to being a terrorist. Are Muslims radical? Are they terrorists? Let me examine in Indian context. 30 th January 1948 is the day when the Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by a Hindu […]
