A forgotten tale of Deeg

Deeg Palace.. a forgotten tale of an Indian king. We often forget that the name of the commonly known 'Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary' is 'Keoladeo Bird Sanctuary', which comes from the Keoladeo temple (Lord Shiva) next to the watch-tower in the middle of the sanctuary. Such is the story of Deeg! How to reach Deeg Deeg is153 kms from New Delhi & 98 kms from Agra) falls within the territorial limits of the holy Braj-Bhumi. Known as ancient Dirghapura in district Bharatpur of Rajasthan, Deeg became a stronghold of the Jat rulers during 18th -19th cent AD. Deeg is deeply connected with the rise of the Jat peasants under the leadership of Rajaram (AD 1686-88), Bhajja Singh (AD 1688-98) and Chudaman (AD 1695-1721). After the death of Chudaman, Badan Singh (AD 1722-56) consolidated his authority over several districts.  Badan Singh (1722 – 56 AD) after assuming the throne consolidated the headman ship of the tribe and was the founder of the Jat hous

Missing you two!

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

Media, democracy and .. Nirbhaya!

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
