I thought for a long time but I wasnt able to decide a string to start with. DIDI, I just want you to know that I love you the most and no matter how things are or turn out to be, You will always be adored by me the most. These two years, what to say...well, I believe were the most special years of my life...and the one who made it so special is You. I still remember the very first time you came to meet me here, it was the 10th of June 2006 if I am not wrong. I had many things in mind which I wanted to do, but sometimes, things dont turn out your way. You do things thinking that they will do good, but sometimes, its those actions which destroy everything. Be it my wannabe character or be it the different set of priorities, all added up to erode my image more and more. I just wanted to cultivate an understanding, that was my first and only priority and I thought two years were enough. But when the period came to an end, I found nothing to be on the right track. It was even worse. Sometimes, it just takes some days for a bond to build up. But when you keep trying and still fail, you must understand that things are going the wrong way, my mistake, I realised it lately. I only had one thing in mind for the last few days, I desperately wanted things to be right, I wanted to bridge those gaps. I was a stubborn. That was the reason of my elongated stay. But again I was wrong, the elongation of stay made it even more complicated. I tried all the things I could to bring a little happiness to You, but I failed again. I still dont understand why the environment turns lull when we are together. A tension persists everywhere, maybe I will understand it one day. I always thought that I was selfless, perhaps I was not, I had an expectation...I always wanted to change the way things are and I still believe they should be changed. Doing things with an expectation, that is what one shouldnt. I always wanted to see You scolding me, I always wanted You to care, I always wanted You to spend more and more time, I always wanted You to share those small happy moments, I always wanted to get free with you so that I can just speak anything. But well even you know how it is like, I cannot say, DIDI I need You to comfort me, I need to sit next to You for sometime, DIDI, please give me a hug. This is perhaps the reason why I write things to you instead of talking. I dont want anyone to be with me, I want no ones support, but without You I just cannot do anything. I am still, I know You could feel it, down, I desperately want your shoulder to cry. But again I know I need to compose it. Leaving Hyderabad in this situation was the last thing I could think of. I know things might seem to be right after I leave(I mean our relationship) but then you never know, because after this day, even if we meet or talk, it wont be for a long time, so even if things are not right, we can potray it to be. As you said that day, We will be in our own ways which probably will never meet, no one will care. So it will be like..hey how r things? fine...n stuff...it wont be anything more than that...but I will always want it to be more than that. This would only have been possible during my stay, after it, you wont even think about it..as I said...the lack of bond. Today I woke up at 7, I just kept staring at the sky, tried to recollect all those moments which made me happy with my two days hungry stomach. Everything just popped in, the day we went for a drive near necklace road, then didnt get tickets for corporate, the other day, I came home when you used to stay at Karkhana, the first day...we went to Barista. Lovely were those days. And I just cannot put everything here, I dont have that ability to translate things, because these feelings I just cannot explain.
DIDI, Thank you for everything. I am extremely sorry for my mistakes and for the elongation of my stay. I again want to say that I still and will love You the most. I am still desperate to stay for some more days, I really dont want to go, but I know you wont like it.

The Trust Vote.
The Grand Final
Date : 22 July 2008
Venue : The Parliament of India
The Trust Vote..Its basically a process which enables the representatives of different areas of the country to cast their votes and choose a leader..thats the basic outline..just basic..its much more complex than that.
In India, there is this unsaid rule that the day you step into the political space, you have to leave all your moral values behind. As the snakes shed their skin, you need to shed your human soul. Eligibility Criteria..one needs to be a scoundrel.
So what kind of people do we see in the parliament?
I would say, there are broadly two kinds, one who are extremely rich and want to project themselves as the real leaders of the country..motive - changing the policy such that it favours their interests. The ones who belong to the other kind are the ones who have really seen what hard times are like..their motive is to reach the heights their counterparts are at.
What it results in?
Result - well..Amendments to the constitution which are not in national interest, Exploitation of national resources and power spree.
A bit off topic. Fine lets get back.
The Special session flagged off with.............allegations..allegations and more allegations..some members even brought big bags full of currency bills..they charged Mr.Amar Singh and the UPA of bribing them to cast vote in their favour. Again so illogical..Can the bills be traced that they came from this particular source??No..So what was the need of just trying to disrupt the process..if there was some strong evidence..they could directly have gone to the CBI or presented it then and there. This was followed by two adjournments resulting in a further delay. Whatever happened just contributed more and more to create a disbelief among people on Democracy. Everyone just had one problem..no one could see the other party in power..no one even wanted to see things in a larger perspective. Mr.Lalu jokingly said that everyone wanted to be the Prime Minister..Mr.Advani, Mayawati..even him but he was in no hurry! But Mayawati's statement was the best indeed, she said that the whole thing was a conspiracy against her and that the UPA and the NDA played it together to prevent the daughter of a 'Dalit' of becoming the Prime Minister. This is another trait found in Indian politicians, I dont know how they twist certain issues, but they can connect any damn thing in the world with wahtever they want, be assured..they atleast have certain talents. Everyone was speaking rubbish. And the Left..they joined hands with NDA hoping that they will form the government. What big misers they are. Are these people here to direct India to a better future..the events which took place on Tuesday dont indicate so. But finally it was the UPA which showed others what it was made from. Whatever it may be, be it bribing or a nexus or whatever, it proved that it was better from the lot. Mr. Manmohan Singh who was once called a 'Nikamma' and 'Weak' Prime Minister proved that he was not so 'weak' and in his statement he said that Mr. Advani at least 5 times tried to get the goverment down, he added that he didnt expect Mr.Advani to change his thinking at his 'ripe old age' but for his and India's sake Mr. Singh urged him to at least get his astrologers changed so that they get more accurate predictions. Now talking about the Deal Maker who was crowned the King maker after the victory, he said that it was the happiest day in his political career because both the 'Lals'(Advani and CPM) were 'destroyed'.
Can you see how powerful the USA are, they can shatter an economy without doing anything.
At the end of the day we have new promises coming from the PM and the FM that we are going to see better reforms. Yes we know what they mean.

The First Post
Amar Singh is the name you will all hear if you accidentally switch to a news channel. And why shouldn't you? He is the man of the moment, he can single-handedly save the government from a fall in the largest democracy of the world. Now how can one call this a stable economy?
First..the government which was formed was a so called coalition between a dozen of useless political parties. How illogical can it be? What is a coalition? No two parties in UPA have the same list of priorities. It was a real hybrid, what should we call it, okay let me see..well how about a Socialistically and Secularly Capitalistic Communist government. WOW. After some four years of being a part of the ruling side, the communist part of the coalition suddenly realises that uniting into the UPA was one of their gravest mistakes and without taking anymore time they withdraw their support at a point of time when inflation and terrorism countrywide are at their highest thus making sure that the government falls and another alliance which our so called communists hated, have a very good chance of coming into power. Now..Mayday..mayday..the driving political party of the UPA sends an SOS to a party which it hated even more than the alliance in the opposition. Here comes the name of Amar Singh ji. No he is no minister, he is just nobody, what he is for namesake, he is the General Secretary of a party which lost its ruling power to a lady who is the face of Dalits and rides BMWs (a one man...sorry woman army again). So where does he get so much power from? Okay, well he gets a lot of media attention being a friend of a bankrupt movie star. Then he has a friend who is one of those filthy riches, the interest of whom Mr. Deal maker wants the government to look after. But..Hello..we still didnt get the answer..Where does he get all the power from? Its a mystery for me too. Can anyone tell me where is India heading? I mean this drift was solely based on a deal which has its pros and cons. I still dont understand what is so bad about it, why are we scared that the USA can exploit us. On one hand we say that we are this thousands of years old civilisation, we have our heritage, we have 'that' decision making ability, we although just 60 years old are matured enough to understand all the issues and then we are scared of getting exploited by a country which has less than 1/5th of our population. Isnt it a bit too messy. And when saving the government is not the issue, then the issues are even more amusing. The UPA..well it didnt get time from the 'Save the Government ' issue so it was not into many amusing things but it still by the proficiency of its Finance Minister, managed to loot the people in the name of tax and then make them bankrupt by getting the price of just every single thing inflated to an extent where even the people of Monaco will have to think twice. Then we make a defence budget of thousands of billions of dollars, more than one fourth the population of our country is below poverty line, they are unable to even eat two times a day. The previous coalition was even better, they passed their whole term just boosting the Hindu-Muslim drift. I am a Hindu by birth but I strongly oppose the demolition of Babri Masjid. Bloody they call themselves socialists. Our country is a secular one, then why the hell did that thing happen. There is no such strong evidence which testifies the existence of the Ram Temple or Ayodhya, but whatever it may be, even if the temple existed and the Muslims demolished and built a masjid, it was their will, it was in their interest, there was no such body called India at that point of time. That particular area was under Muslim rule so they just did what they wanted to because it was a Muslim state then. But India, its not a Hindu Nation, we are secular, how can one even think of blunders like this. And NDA say they did a lot.
The Constitution of India is an ancient one. People who drafted it had no experience to run a country and the country happens to be India which is one of the largest in areas and has the 2nd largest population. No other country can even match the problems which India faces, here everything is complex. People are not open so we cant even think of expanding. And keeping England in mind and framing a Constitution was just humbug. They are tiny, and then they are much evolved. We are ancient, using a "cool" lingo dosent evolve you.
We bloody people are like such fools, Cant we see whats happening. No, we are busy trying to get into IIT then do an MBA from London School of Economics, get a fat amount and then hey we are rich and happy. And even if we get involved in certain issues, they are the likes of Arushi Murder case. I still dont understand, who was she? Why the hell is the nation following the whole case so closely, facebook groups came up..so did orkut communities, hello..she was one little girl, thats it, its probably due to the media hype, they dont concentrate on issues which they really should. Do you know more than twenty five thousand people die every single year only in India cleaning our dirty pipelines, but did the news channels ever broadcast a single show on it. There is no masala. Its just plain truth that thousands of people die cleaning our toilets and we dont care, whom do we care then..Arushi, who was just no one to us. So who is going to look into all these issues then. The poor ones, most of them dont even know what a government is all about, it is just some glasses of cheap liquor on the 'something called Election day'. We at least, the educated ones should come up, take part in the national politics, think about reforms, make the national interest our interest, writing such blog posts or criticising the government wont do any good. At least fight for your rights, even our ancient constitution gives us the right against exploitation. Think of this now, when you are paid, the first thing you do is pay your tax, fine, the government took its part from your money. Then you go to a shop, you buy a commodity, you pay the tax again. What the hell is it? They already took a part of your earning, then why the hell are they taking it again. And well the commodity, when it comes from the manufacturer to the distributor, the government collects tax, then it comes to the whole seller, tax is collected again, then the shop keeper, again, and then finally us. So what happens is, the government almost collects an amount which is almost equal to the price we pay. And what does it do with that money. Well anyone in India can answer that, I dont have to utter a single word. So arent we getting exploited?

The Name.
Bridge over troubled water...what strikes your mind first? If you are into what I call good music, the answer is Simon and Garfunkel.
Naming a blog on a track that in no way has any relations to it..?? Well, it was this lazy weekend and I tell you it crawled in like a miserable cheetah. Me and a friend of mine were discussing some random issues. Then suddenly, I came up with the idea of setting up a pub..yes it was as idiotic as it can get. We checked out several biggies like Hard Rock Cafe and F Bar for a franchisee agreement. Then we joined ourselves in the 'Name It' quest. Bridge over troubled water was the first name we both thought of, and that was it. I mean what could prove to be a better name. Have a look at it again..Bridge over troubled water..meaningfully, its as precise as a tomahawk and aesthetically its brilliant.
So, when today I joined my counterparts in this new 'middle class' hype..blogging..I was simply clueless..what name? I dont know how thoughts flow, that very weekend came to my mind and I said why not..no one is going to read it any way.
