Unbelievable truth of healthcare sector in India!

I really fail to understand if we are moving forward while living in 2016 or going backwards! When will India will be adult and shall we be given the right behave like one. We are such hypocrites in all means! Our politicians and leaders are hellbent in proving Indians can shrug off the ‘Third world’ tag and can do much more than any other developed country. We have the capability of becoming leaders. On the other hand, it’s painful to see we still have to follow the rules of 1957 which is obsolete in 2016, but based on those few people are just pulling progress, as they are still law. This is disgusting! Are we really serious about the growth of our country and it’s people, or it’s just for the sake of saying! Few days back Chennai Medical Association came out with a logic that doctors cannot list themselves on any internet listing site, as per a law of 1957 and some sections. Fare enough, but does the law say that people should be harassed and die before finding a doctor t

Media, democracy and .. Nirbhaya!

Image
Is some light still there? It is shocking to hear and see, that a rapist of Delhi brutal gang rape victim 'Nirbhaya' not only is saying his views on rape but also the recommending probable remedy to any other rape victims; what should and should not be done at the time of or after a rape is conducted. It’s difficult to reconcile how can the journalist with a team,(who apparently is also a rape victim, as she says) go inside a jail with recording equipment to record the views of a rapists for her documentary! To me, what is more alarming and disturbing are the bold statements of two lawyers of the rapists on national televisions; one says almost the same version of the rapist said (what is still available on the internet) what a woman must or must not do for NOT being raped. Another goes a step ahead saying 'he would burn alive any woman of his family if found alone or any other man in the evening! Most surprisingly, they are proud to advocate their view

Lathmaar Holi in Barsana and Nandgaon

Image
A completely different kind of Holi (The Festival Of colours) is played within 100 kilometers from the heart of Delhi In next few weeks there is another Holi coming up, the color of festival. A festival of joy and love. Holi in Braj region is played for more than a week in innumerable temples of Radha-Krishna with limitless enthusiasm and devotion by thousands of people. I had been to Brindavan earlier, but not during ‘Holi’. So the experience of ‘Holi’ in Barsana and Nandgaon was simply out of the World. I drove down from Delhi. The journey started at 3AM in the morning to reach Barsana by 5AM in the morning. It was a smooth and nice drive. Reached Barsana just before the Sun shown it’s first ray. While enjoying a tea and a smoke, I started getting ready with my camera and few other things in a backpack to start the day sitting in a local tea shop.  A family tea shop. One of my most liked shoot.  While walking through the village upto the 'Radhara

Battleground Delhi - BJP Vs AAP

Image
Countdown begins for the D-day, Feb10, 2015 Officially 40 crores of rupees, one lakh staff and police personnel were involved in last Delhi assembly election in the end of 2013. This is as per official information available on the net and from other news agencies. While on road in traffic, people in Delhi hardly heard any song on FM channels, as all political parties came with all sorts of attractive punch lines to allure us. Some focused on tradition, some one corruption and some only ‘change’! Of course we, the people, generated all TRP and made it a hit. After the election was over, with lots of hope, expectation and expenses, what could not be achieved was a stable and honest Government in the state of Delhi, the Capital of India. After a lot of dilemma, AAP (Aam Admi Party) formed a Government with ‘unconditional support’ of Congress from outside, even AAP were at the second place in the rally after BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party) and to the utter shock, on 49 th day

OMG (Oh My God) Vs Pk

Image
God created human and then human created 'Godman', who most of the times do not act as Godly as we much we keep faith in them. So, even when we have full faith in God in our own ways and not the way it's shown by the Godmen. It should be a direct call to the creator, God and no via-media is needed ever. Is that the truth? If that is accepted then both movies OMG and Pk hit the same goal. Faith is needed to live, to move forward and that mostly comes from within. Faith maybe is a weakness for the human being, as future always holds the mystery and past have not been quite 'happening' mostly. So, the answer is a billion dollar business of 'Faith and hope' and the middle name of that are 'Godman'. They are the inter-mediatory between us, the often troubled common people and God. There is not any dearth of worry for downfall in this business and never have any recession. This is going on for hundreds of years, as we, the people provide TRP for t

A new year again for making a brand new wish!

First day of the new year makes us feel nostalgic, at least it happens with me sometimes. An audit goes on within the mind, as how the previous year passed and what will be the new year resolutions, validity for those resolutions become only for 10days .. ok, let's make it better ..20 days at the most? So, I am starting to write today on the fifth day of the year 2015. As this writing falls in my new year's resolution. To write some, to click some, to draw some and also to play some. And to do lot more work. Too many things in  the list? I too feel so. So, it's my time for the test and see how long can I continue and if they last beyond 15 days! Last summer I went to Ladakh, but didn't still have gone through all my photographs nor could write more than two pages on the trip. But it's alright! It happens perhaps! Let's look forward and think that all those what happened last year and years before that. Let's think that they were the worst and now it can

Missing you two!

Image
Missing you two! A smile on your face A grin in your eyes, A hug, you said am warm always, A kiss from your unclean lips! Few minutes of a day, Walking you at the my back, tired, Those careless talk holding me tight. A laughter from you, echoes still. Those minutes have been my days, My life and a reason to live, I missed them although, but No-more I have to cry ever. Your smile has changed for me, forever, Nor do you miss me for anytime, not a minute, Your hug was not asking for the warmth, Nor the careless talk were carefree anymore. Your lips in the crowded road was dry, My mind was numb and your eyes lied, last evening. Your half truth hurt me, but will not count, I will not think why you did it, I know my love. In an awaken middle of the night, I miss you, I miss your calls, like a purpose of my life, Miss your hugs and kisses as all my efforts ever, Miss you, saying 'miss you', to lose have I all. But I have to change, as I
