Another “kaala divas” for our country, yet another question mark on the so highlighted “SYSTEM” and its working…Sometimes one is so compelled to think about how the hay days must be looking like!!…for the condition of our country is all black these days..all smoke..formed by the chemicals of corruption, terrorism, and perhaps a Political system which was although designed to clear it, only manages to add to the darkness of it…The smoke, which chokes the people off their breathe and their VOICE, which is trying to find newer and better ways to showcase the complaining hearts and get heard big time...But this smoke carries explosions as well..one too many, and loud enough to get that voice subdued..no matter if it comes from a billion odd people's simultaneous crying…
The image above shows the ground-level reality of our GOLDEN BIRD..whose feathers today get trimmed as soon as they look like growing for a new flight..Another blast at the same venue just after 3 months and 13 days...The political zeals are flourishing once again emphasizing on “we should all face this moment of crisis together”..the EXCLUSIVE REPORT bringing media is on its toes..Zakhmiyon ke khun ki garmaahat me sabki rotiyaan senki ja chuki hain..jin-jinki gas(life) khatam ho gai unhe muaafza(the relief which itself is from the tax payer’s fund and in all means, the victim’s money) de dia jaega..and that’s how deeply the condolence and togetherness of NETA JI for his bholi janta remain hand in hand..
There is a lot to recollect, think and cry upon from our near past as far as these accidents or catastrophes are concerned..let’s not get into it for that’s in no way the motive of this writing..all I want to throw light upon is what we learnt from these incidents..and how much have things changed..Doesn’t this show our inability and helplessness to change something we so desparately want to..or is it the lack of INTENT actually??..Just a few days back, a Ship intruded our water boundaries near Juhu beach...and his highness Mr Ajmal Amir Kasaab is yet to be sentenced for a similar act(the consequences of which we all know)..a MIG Crash has become so damn common as is a road accident to this country..no matter how many Rang De Basantis are made out of them..the government and to a very large extent We, The People have learnt to take them as just another happening in our big country..bade bade deshon ki chhoti chhoti baaten…What are our leaders, our Security forces doing to avoid them??..what's the point of those meaningless security checks at parking and entrances, conducted by those who are only a part of us-the sufferers?
Today, I learnt one simple message from all this stuff..we have probably grown so deeply unconcerned and apathetic towards the 'other' guy; that we tend to forget -it is the many “I”s which form that WE..the unity and integrity which is so talked and boasted of!!...the number of blood donors at Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital exemplifies this(less than 10 people came forward after nearly 4 hours of the blast)..a few who realize, ACT…but only for a tiny moment of compassion or half-hearted sympathy...and the conundrum remains unanswered..!! A Lucknowite can excuse himself saying what could I do from here...right, but to a very minute extent for he really can if he wishes to..But why, what’s the need?? Aren’t the 14 million odd Delhites enough…can’t they take care of a 100 ailing people…what about those hospital-visiting, peace-appealing politicians…Kya unki ragon me sirf paisa hi behta hai..!!..jab ghar ki safaai me haath gande hone ka dar is qadar dil me baitha hai…then we are only preparing ourselves for more of the dust..and that Smoke..!! And to those who are still able to escape it, it’s due to God’s grace than anything else...for they too haven’t acted much for it..
Yun bhi is desh ki har jaan ki haisiyat Rs 54,000 saalaana se kuchh hi zyada aanki gai hai(SAALAANAA!!!), magar us jaan ki asal keemat shayad isse bhi kam hai..iska andaaza humein ye haadse baaar baar dilaate rahe hain…Jee haan!! Badhti abaadi ne zindagi ka mol bhi kaafi hadd tak Sastaa kar diya hai..84 lakh yoniyon ke baad milne waali nemat kaudiyon ke bhaav!!...jitni chaahe daanw pe lagaiye, ghaata bahot chuninda logon(sage-sambandhiyon) ke hisse me hi aata hai...!!!
