Dedications

Rahul walked and walked
Rest in Congress talked and talked
Congress turned out to be a dope
Their actions had no hope
You cant talk and walk
You got to walk the talk
Congress needs to shed its image
Or someone needs to take the image
Take charge of the palm and manage
The Clock and The Bow and Arrow
Once the image of another Hero
You can't have one hero or a family
Rule a country and live a life of jolly
Confidence and head in clouds a folly

The recent statement at an election rally by the honorable Home Minister, "Hum ek hain tho safe hain", meaning if we are one we are safe? What is this, one, is a trillion dollar question? Trillion because India wants to achieve a 5 Trillion dollar economy, and if this question answered may add another Trillion?

Election rallies have become so divisive that none speak of Infrstructure, Health, AQI, Education, Sports, Job creation and basic human needs to lead a quality and dignified life. It is all about dividing a nation on religious lines, which has failed. Proof election results in Ayodhya where the Ram Mandir was built. Now it is reservation assurance for backward class and tribes? How many of these backward class and tribes has any government brought out of their alleged poverty? If they have been brought out have they been declassified from their class status?

Reservation status was a part of the constitution. It was planned for a period of 10 years, which got stretched to 78 years after Independence. So was it reservation for backward and tribal class or was it reservation for politicians and their parties ensuring a vote bank? 

At the same time Christian missionaries for over 2000 years have been uplifting people out of poverty and educating tribes of the rights are termed as converting people. Alleging as converting people and luring them with food and money? Are not freebies, monetary benefits not converting people to vote for a party. Is not banning beef forcing a religious dietary habit on the rest including Hindus who eat beef?

Now the latest threat of banning conversion. Over thousands of years that Christianity prevailed in India and if  the religion was converting people, how come it is a minority religion? That to around 2%? This confirms the religion was not into converting people. Instead Christians converted society and upliftment of education standards in India. Many of the politicians across parties had their education for prestigious Christian run schools, including many from the present government. Sad on their stoic silence to what is systematically and continously being done to the Christian community, especially the carnage and inhuman brutality in Manipur?

Christians persecuted for their religion? A religion where Jesus Christ, son of God was crucified and killed, by the state, for his interpretation of doing good and being good! Teaching to offer the other cheek when someone slaps you on one cheek! Christians will continue to be non violent and follow their Lord's prayer that teaches them to forgive those who trespass against them. They were always forgiving and only kept giving.

Many secular peace minded non Christian citizens may also have a similar belief to forgive those who trespass against them. They may forgive but will never forget and will definitely never vote for party that trespassed a nation of its unity in diversity. Hum anek hai aur anektha mein humari ektha hai (We are diverse and united in our diveristy)

There was never ever flooding in Bombay, There is no corruption in Bombay, then why are we still complaining?

We should not be complaining if we are experiencing bad and otherwise to the above mentioned. It is because we are the cause for our bad experiences. We don't want to vote.

Or could it be we are voting for bad parties with bad politicians who represent them?
