जोगीरा सा रा रा

One Mind ke consultants sunday ko माना रहे होली
भूल गए कल monday है.. मैनेजर को दोगे क्या गोली 
जोगी रा ...

राजा बाबू ने बोला mutton बनाया जाए
पनीर छोले चिल्लाये.. अर्रे हमको भी कोई खाये
जोगी रा से रा रा 

Kitchen में बैठे पति सारा खाना बनाएं
और बीवियां बैठ हमारा मज़ाक उड़ाये
जोगीरा सा रा रा ...

Mistun से पूछो Whatspp से कैसे कंपनी चलाई जाए.. 
बिना पान बिना सुपारी के choona लगाए जाएं ..
जोगीरा सा रा रा

त्यागी जी बोले सब मुझसे फ़ोटो खिंचवाए
पर कोई न मिला जो मेरी खीचेने आये..
जोगीरा सा रा रा 

रघु भाई ने bounvita पी कर दस काम लिखवाये
करते करते पता चला .. कमरिया टूटी जाए
जोगीरा से रा रा 

नवीन चंद्रा जोश में बोल गए .. होली मेरे घर पर खेली जाए
क्या पता बर्तन भी धोने पड़ेंगे हाय
जोगी रा से रा रा 

हमसे और नवनीत से  पूछो कैसे उड़ता तीर लिया जाए
क्या saturday औए क्या संडे बस बैंड बजाय जाए 
जोगी रा...

Why do we need Ram Mandir !!

PS: I WROTE THIS IN MAY 2009 BUT MISSED TO PUBLISH

Since my childhood I have been taught by elders that Bhagwan (God) is there in every particle of the earth. Gradually I started knowing the importance of worship places like Mandir etc and eventually I realized the power of pilgrimage in our country. Now, the question is who is Ram why there is so much debate for this when we have so many temples in each and every city, villages many of them focus specially for Lord Ram.


So, is it all for the politics or a common Indian really wants a Ram Mandir should be there on his own birth place?. Well, as common NORTH Indian I emphasized on north because. What ever has been said by Mr.Karunanidhi for Sri Ram there at down south would surely not be accepted in North India.  So, one thing is sure that Ram is not here only for votes because Karnuanidhi has thousands of followers there even after this statement. (That Lord Ram was not a civil engg. Student.who can built Ram Sethu).


Now, lets focus on Ram Mandir and what are the obstacles here. When we compare Lord Ram with Babar although this would not be so correct to compare still we have stick on some formula in order to get the win-win situation for both the communities. As far as Sri Ram is concerned North Indian 100% believes on philosophy of Ramcharitra manas. (Ramanaya) Being an ancient spiritual literature we can say birth place of Sri Ram is Ayodhya.  This has been proved by our modern history that so many hindu temples were destroyed by muslim invaders one example can be found at Mathura also (Lord Sri Krishna janambhumi).


Well, I don’t have any issue with those invaders now. That was a past I have concerned with my muslims brothers and sister which is present. Why they are not coming by their own to offer hindus to build a marvelous architecture for Lord Ram. Ram in India is not only for hindus. Just go and visit any village you can find people greeting each other by saying ram-ram. Which includes muslims too. We carry this Ram word till the end of our lives. During our last journey peoples says ram naam staya hai (Ram is the single truth)


Every time our leaders stress so much on minorities rights their issues and problems. Many of them addressed too. What about the issues and concerns of majority. Hindus in India constitute around 82% of population. 


Can’t we simply follow our heart and take this call to built a Temple which shows our unity, harmony.

In transit

Recently while traveling back from Philippines. I had a halt at Singapore airport for four hours. I must say what a magnificent airport. It has wonderful sky train connectivity between it's terminals. Miniature zoo and free massage chairs.
On top of that this Airport gives free Wi-Fi that too with fantastic speed that I was able to connect my servers via VPN and did some urgent work from there.

I had to catch my connecting flight from terminal 3 after spent around 2 hours in net surfing, food court etc. I suddenly found place is very quite and very few "in transit" passengers were waiting for their connecting flights.

While sitting at a corner I was thinking this is exactly what we were doing throughout our lives. Just waiting for our turn to catch the "Connecting" flight ??

Our birth, studies, marriage, kids, job, retirement etc. are just different ways to spend our "In-Transit" period and eventually we all have to wait for our call for onboarding....

BCP - Keep your family afloat !


For my corporate friends BCP - Business Continuity Planning is quite common term. People working even in junior - mid management knows why BCP is essential and knows how to keep the business afloat in case of any misshapen.

Those who actually dosen't know what BCP means here is the official definition 

"BCP is the preparation and testing of measures that protect business operations and also provide the means for the recovery of technologies in the event of any loss, damage or failure of facilities"

Basically it’s the strategy to keep your business afloat..
Your company is doing good for their business.. what about your family.. ??

Have you guys ever thought of implementation of BCP with your family ?

So, here is the quick checklist.. 
  • Are your dependents secure enough without you ?
  • Do your family knows your investment details ?
  • Do you have nominee in your PPF account ? 
  • Do all your loans are insured ?
  • Annual full body check up ?
  • Retirement ?
If you answered a single NO then my friend WAKE UP! 

If you guys are reading my blog then I assume you seems to be quite intelligent ;-). So, I don't want to teach you guys to where to invest or not. But I think we can manage below tasks easily.
  • Organize All Your Important Financial and Personal Documents So They Are Easy to Access
  • Keep Documents in Fire-Proof Safe or Safe-Deposit Box
  • Develop List of Key Financial, Legal Contacts 
  • Make Sure your wife knows all the Passwords to Access Financial Information
Emotional appeal :-)

Being a Hindu (proud hindu). I do believe in rebirth and remind you that's not possible until you attain mokhsa and that is possible only for peaceful soul.  

I hope I've made my point.. 

Stay Healthy..

Why do we need both Ambani and Kejriwal??



Couple of days back I was listening Mahonar Parikar, Goa CM. He raised very genuine question about Mr. Kejriwal that why didn’t he raised Ambani issue for last 10 years though he was RTI activist in fact he was quite instrumental in drafting the act. Might be that time due to proximity with congress leadership he didn't able to :-). Anyway, the bigger question in my mind is that why do we really need Ambani or in abstract terms privatisation of this level.
 

Remember the era pre-1991. Almost everything was in government’s control be it manufacturing, banking, aviation, telecommunication even milk production. I still remember queuing up in morning in front of DMS (Delhi Milk Scheme) store. Our leadership of that time was quite sure to follow Russia. We should thank to Narsimha Rao for bringing MMS (Manmohan Singh’s) policies for promoting privatisation and we should equally thank to Mr. Vajpayee for spinning the wheel much faster pace in coming years.

Now, what went wrong in two tenures to UPA?  This time MMS was on driving seat (at least on paper). Actually NOTHING went wrong. India has grown leaps and bounds during last decade. Mr. Modi has tapped the same policies and delivered so called Gujarat Model. I pity on congress despite knowing everything they have to discourage Gujarat due to obvious reasons.


Well the question was how come Ambani become so prominent in these years? Behind all these liberalisation, policies etc. only driving force is profitability. Privatisation was the need of hour in 1990s had this not been happen I would have still waiting for Bajaj Super scooter or queuing for MTNL land line connection. Don’t expect any private player show interest without eying profit. So, as the person who represents the government :-).


Irony is that there is no unit or scale of profit. This could be from thousands to crore thousands. Here comes the Kejriwal in picture (or read as Ashok Khemka, G. R. Khairnar) many others brave hearts. Without even validating the fact I’m 100% sure that he right with his facts handy either its about Jijaji (Vadra) or Ambani.


By knowing all these mathematics why don’t we have accountable government  till date. Answer is Our country is not ready yet.. we need another 50 years at least or until we become “SECULAR”  


Though.. Vishal Bharadwaj has preached us the concept in Maqbool why do we need both Ambani and Kejriwal.. “Aag ke liye paani ka dar bane rehna chahiye..”

P.S. Here Ambani and Kejriwal used as metaphor they could be any in their respective role..

Reserve me please - II

In this season of making movie sequels I too wanted to jump in same pool to write a sequel of one of my previous blog. Last year I wrote a blog about caste reservation http://tinyurl.com/3rt899c. Though till that time I was thinking that to get in govt. jobs people do want to get into the elite SC / ST / OBC status. But recent news about making fake caste certificates to get admission in a DU college made me wrong.

I feel pity about these bright commerce students (science students have thousands of shops now to get BE / BTech) who are seeking admissions just to do B.Com or Eco (H). Most students who made fake caste certificate have secured more than 85%. Though their parents know this fact that just getting admission in any prestigious DU college is not the license for good career. Still they want to gamble.

I feel more ashamed when I see the reaction from our very talented education minister or from University authorities that they will bar these students to pursue their studies further.

I’m still looking for the definition of “Dalit”. There are scores of students whose parents have enjoyed the benefits of SC / ST certificates. Many of then wards of IAS / IPS officers. What exactly can be done now to remove the SC / ST tag. I’m sure for one thing needy people are still struggling to get the primary education doesn’t matter which class they belong.

Our loksabha speaker Meira Kumar 5th time MP. Former IFS officer, served in many high commissions. Despite all this she is Dalit. Examples like this are endless.

I really don’t know from which calculation I belong to upper caste.

Anyway, this is an endless discussion to talk about reservation. This is for sure no political party ever wanted to finish this practice and start giving reservation on the basis of financial status.

But at least they can correct these insane criteria of 100% cut-off system in our colleges.

I’ve few alternatives..

1. Start entrance exam like IIT for commerce students too get admission for so called Best of Best course B.Com (H).

2. Just transfer the faculties from these “prestigious” colleges to other colleges and keep moving after some time-period. So, the myth of prestigious college removed and we can have new myth prestigious university.

3. Avoid events like Commonwealth and build new colleges across country.

4. If any of above doesn’t work the please open shops for regular college courses too. Like we have for Engineering (India produces more engg. Than potatos). Thanks to mushroomed Pvt. Engg colleges and our education ministers.

Considering my academic record I’ll make sure that my son should pursue in sports (read as cricket only) if he manage to play one IPL season.. will be good enough for whole life.. :-)

What’s next

First thing first. We are once again world champ … Kapil Paaji might have tired holding the “original” world cup trophy for last 28 years.

I always prefer to write on only those issues which are missed by our 24 x 7 media or social causes where a counter view is required. For the last 4-5 months any of these condition didn’t met. Hence you guys must be missing me :-). As all of the major landmarks of our UPA part II are well covered by media. Top of my head I’ve few Commonwealth Scam, Adarsh Scam, 2G Scam and recently we have witnessed agitation by Gandhi of our generation Anna Hazare.

You people might be thinking what made me to write about this. As this well covered by Media, Facebook, Twitter etc. didn’t check on orkut. I hope its not there. :-)

I understand that a tough law is required to curb corruption and this is the need of the hour. But frankly speaking I don’t understand where exactly common man or ‘Aam Aadmi’ (whose hand is with congress) is going to use this?

Following are the services where we generally (read as always) give bribe and already accepted that this is the part of our system.

  1. Driving License
  2. International Driving License (Plz note different rate apply for this)
  3. Passport
  4. Tatkal Passport (Plz note special rate apply for this)
  5. Marriage Certificate
  6. Donation in School
  7. Flat / Plot Registration
  8. Customs
  9. Our dear Police Constable
  10. Lodging FIR (I think this is really tough even after giving bribe)

Per my understanding above mentioned service is not going to cover under lokpal. If they are then god helps the people who are going to work under this department.

Without any doubt year 2010 belongs to the unprecedented year of corruption in Indian History. But still I think all the innocent people are with Anna Hazare by thinking their day-to-day life will be easier by availing basic services.

I don’t know about others but I feel humiliated when I have to give bribe for these basic services. Giving bribe of Rs 200 is more painful than that of 200 crore scam. As those 200 Rs pinch directly.

I personally think that giving and taking bribe is in our character now and we desperately need a lokpal for our character.

So, are we really not going to give bribe anymore... or What's next (after lokpal)??

Yours ‘PAL’,
