"Ab Bhi Jiska Khoon na Khwala, Woh Khoon Nahin hai

There is a saying in Malayalam, "If you Dead today, then its the 2nd day tommorow"
Which basically means, Its only as far as you are alive that people will know you as a person, once you are dead then, All they say is its being 2 days he's dead now, or that its the 13th!

So 2 days after the end of the horrifying ordeal, what is left is Numbers 174-civilians, 11-Police. These are official figures, which i am sure are very much watered down a lot! the toll is more than 174 for sure, but that's a different story!!

As of now Normalcy resumes in the Mumbai, and please for heaven sake its not because the "Mumbai spirit" but because of the simple reason that the citizen, the middle class of mumbai and many other cities like mumbai has no other option but to resume normalcy, wake up, board the local, turn up in their offices be in South Mumbai, Nariman point, Colaba wherever... They have to, coz if they don't they will lose their jobs, and quite frankly in this Recession market. it is something they just can't afford! Politicans have many a times used this terminology to get away, but not anymore...

Even as the bodies of all those brave men that laid their lives to save the lifes of innocent are being laid to rest, These soliders of the soil who saved our nation the embrassement of being held hostage by mere 10 of those 20 year old gunmen.
Even as Sandeep Unnikrishan's mother comes to term with the fact that his son is now a Martyr, The politics in Delhi kicks up a Grand Eyewash, Meetings after meetings take place.
BOOM - Damage control or shall i say face-saving excerises are being done in the capital,
Home minister - Shivraj Patil resigns, PC to take over home
PM - who had first offered to resign, will get back his Finance minister post

What is this... i ask? Do you really think Any of these will bring back any of those who are dead, Does any of this give the Common man any hope that he is secure!
The answer is a RESOUNDING NO!!! it doesn't,

and Does the center think that We the Citizens are FOOLS, arre your Deputy CM (RR PATIL) has this to say about the Terrorist attack "Bade Bade Sheron mein Ek ADH HADSA hota hai" I mean... just see the audacity of this person... DEPUTY CM he is, arre he is fit for... i really have no parlimentary words of expression for this person,

On the other hand, Our very own CM decides that he should have a stroll of the TAJ along with his son Ritesh and RGV, afterall RGV is making a movie on Journalism which stars Ritesh and could just save his carreer a boost!

TAMASHA is what they call this in local terms!!!

We as citizens are asked to VOTE and select your own leader, I ask what is my option, Select the least stinking scum from a pack of Disgusting LOAD OF CRAP!! Thats what we have being doing for all these years, Nothing has changed, If only things have gotten worse..

You may ask You have so many questions and so many to blame why dont you give some answers, My answer is Don't Vote for anybody,

Yes that's right... There is a provision for this in the law, We don;t have to select the best from the worst, As an alternative an additional electoral choice option that carries a political message (a vote for none-of-the-above, as it were) can be given to the voters so that if they don’t like any of the candidates, they can exercise this option. This option gives you the power to VOTE both of the candidates out, and then these candidates are not eligible to stand for election for some time. This will take care of 2 things, a) It will force the party to rethink about their candidates b) it will send another message that "WE ARE AWARE OF OUR RIGHTS"

Seondly before voting KNOW who you are voting
Due to the intervention of the Supreme Court of India it has been made mandatory for candidates contesting elections to submit affidavits along with their nomination papers giving information about criminal cases pending against them, if any; financial assets of the candidate, his/her spouse and dependents; financial liabilities and educational qualifications of the candidate. The affidavit has to be displayed prominently outside the polling stations.
If its not there.. DEMAND FOR IT!! its your RIGHT!

This is such a powerfull tool that the govt has given all of us, why don;t we use it.. just because nobody knows, We are ignorant, The parties are well aware of this and thats why they won't talk about it! but we as citizens should be alreat of the fact..

Educate yourself, Educate others, Educate everyone..
LETS JUST CLEAN UP THE ENTIRE SYSTEM!!
