India Against Corruption

I woke up in the morning and thanked god for gifting me this life. My day would always begin with a quick chat with my family and kids. Biwi(wife) starts her day with her routine things and parceling the kids while my dad and mom have their appointments with the idols at the temple in the society. My 2BHK flat, some 1200 square feet area, in the suburbs , houses every necessity but I always wonder and wait for the time when my banker says, the flat is no more a joint venture between me and them.

I do not read the news paper in the morning, not that I am gyaani(versed) with all developments on the board, but because my idea of being the aam aadmi doesn't matches with them. They call me aam aadmi and make policies for me, but I want to tell them that I am not an aam aadmi, they propose to sell their manifesto with. I do not need their 32 rs a day to survive, I am not pretty much in favour of the subsidy they offer me on the fuel, I am kind of okay with a gas cylinder that they atleast manage to send me at my house.

I know it is my money they play with. Obviously I sacrificed on my son's sports studs in the march because my company deducted TDS on my earnings for them. I was taught to pay tax because it was believed that the money would circulate, will be invested again over me for my benefits. I agree, a lot of the infrastructure ,electricity and allied stuff has been set in place for me, but somehow I still see that a lot has been diverted to their pockets and may be to their covered savings. The diversion of funds does affect me daily, and it is also creating an unsecured future for my kids, may be for my retirement, but I do not see a solution to it.
The newspapers and media is not fostering my spirit anymore, it is just creating another fear, I already have zero spirits to love my country anymore, but making me scared and stay away from the things isn't solving any problem either.

I travel about 35 kms a day on two wheeler because even after 60 plus years of independence you failed to create a job within my locality. I fight through out the 12 hours I spend in office, and yet I am not sure if tomorrow I will be able to continue with the job. Not that I am a blue collored worker, but you are not able to implement the laws you created for us. You can't offer me present security, neither can you make me assured of a better future tomorrow. It is me who has to take care of my expenses, the illness in my family and even all recurring things. Now despite all these odds that I am supposed to manage daily, do you want me to come home tired and fight against you for my money also?

I do see some of us fighting against corruption and I also have some sections in my heart prompting me to contribute, but my actions do not scale those heights, because I am overwhelmed with scary picture of my ironies:
1. I am into a private job where every day is a fight and challenge to survival. The government didn't offer me a service to do, neither it has the plan to take my care , if I fail in the private job and its perfect competition. What if I fight for corruption and lose my only source of earning?
2. I already know that you are corrupt, I am ready to bring the change also. So, give me option to choose from?
3, My life revolves around so many recurring problems within the home, I have a pretty good family to look at and everything just runs on the EMI. How do I manage to look towards national problems?
4. I want to fight my fears, can you fight with my issues?
5. Arey I know they have eaten millions, billions and even trillions, now tell me something new, fighting corruption is never about exposing new problems, it is about finding solutions to the earlier ones.
6. You have established yourself and may be noone can dare to challenge you now. I am still struggling to find a name for me, how do you think I can risk my career and life?
7. Will you ensure my survival against the
corrupt power?
8. Ok, I will not offer bribe, but how will the private companies manage red tape?

An agitated common man to the leaders of movement against corruption, the aam aadmi would love to see reforms and an alternative to current system, stop exposing more problems and try people to find solution within their confined spaces.

Written by an Indian middle class fighting against himself and then persuaded by IAC to struggle against nation. He knows that the failure of the movement is his failure too, but how does he sacrifice?

As per Federal bank technical research report one should go short in

this counter. Federal bank is looking quite weak at current level and is expected

to fall further. Positional traders can go short in Federal bank from current level

for good gains.

Give reasons to smile :-)

Everyone in his life has a wrap of worries and concerns, Someone is worried for his career, someone has a family related issue, lot many are strucked in business, few are just too busy with the tension of studies, a lot many are busy with the tensions in friendship and amongst the friends... In my opinion, giving others a reason to worry is an easy task, it takes just fw minutes to hurt anyone, slap him, hit him, say him something undesired, it'll solve the purpose... but for spreading smiles something extra needs to be done.. it is difficult to manage tears than to bring them from someone's eyes. its too difficult to make others laugh from the heart... Looking at few of my peers ( not my close ones frm instt) , i find ppl changin for their parents, why do we tend to forget them ? when we grow? , why our friends become more important in a way tht they take a pie from the share of our moms and dads.. how many times do we think before saying a lie to our moms and dads. Hw do we ...

YTD..EOD... EUGMP... CRAMS... NON BETA Synthesis.:-)

On my c-pad(Old model m2000 Compaq Presario)...I am writing after long...Have two reasons for it, which i'll like to hide from you:) Life is moving at a pace with work,life,Family,Friends each getting muddled in 24*60*60 seconds of the day.. :):(, Yes each facet demands its time, but as of now work takes it all:), and it is not wrong too... As at the EOD Work has to pay back something... It was the end of week 3 for my new journey that made me see few new words(Both in day and night): EOD- End Of Day YTD- Year till Date GMP-Good Manufacturing Practices and so on... Yeah, getting connected to the Pharma buzz, Things are interesting in some ways but quite exasperating on the other side, My dreams see me finding the cost of cephalosporins, SSPs and many more... The names that i could never ever see again in last 5 years, Someday a name came 'Pencillin' and i went back 10 years and realized that we are talking about the same Pencillin that was discovered by every Child...

New Journey!!! - Plannin to write my blog

Well, I m no Amitabh Bachhan, No Aamir Khan, tht ppl will be reading my blog or will be finding it worth reading. All i know is tht i am getting inspired from Ankur to write it. This is my opening post meant to be read for ppl close to me.   Its 10:10pm now, September 25 th 2008 , I have decided to replicate the high flying Blogging concept whilst I know I have the slightest listeners. Holidays have started, No great work to do these days, except getting inclined to TV and gossips, ‘Roz ki faaltu baatein’ would be the core activity in my list regularly till 5 th October.   Will be missing my college buddies, Its always a dependence tht gets created when you meet the same ppl regularly, The best and worst part of “Chhutiyan-Holidays’ is the “ending/missing of monotonous routine” , on one side I m happy tht this break would end up my daily 9 to 6 college routine and on the same time I will be / already started missing my friends and foes J . Tension mat lo, foes are an import...
