Many others too feel the same way...that they have been let down by the party which they thought to be the only credible alternative to the Congress. With this mess in the BJP, the Congress is virtually without opposition, save a ragtag bunch of meglomaniacal idiots. TV anchors have started speaking of the decline of the Sangh, and the BJP in particular with undisguised glee. But being the eternal optimist that I am, I still see hope, although I must confess that the vision of hope is still hazy without a strong leader in the cowbelt. Also, I must mention that I am thinking long term, that is 2019, not 2014, where I see little chance.<br /><br />At a logical level, I am confounded by all this talk of BJP being in terminal decline, a patient on life support. In such a widely split polity, a party that brings in about 22% of the popular vote is by no means insignificant or in terminal decline. BJP won by handsome margins in many states and that might explain to large extant ass to why the votes did not get translated into seats. It has the core support base of the Sangh, which is estimated to be about 20 % and the BJP has always fluctuated between 20% to 28% of the popular vote. BJP or its long term allies have strong presence in India's wealthiest states of Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Punjab. It is significant in many other small states. So at one level all this talk of the party being in decline is a wee bit presumptuous and tinged with a healthy dose of bias. <br /><br />But the scary part is that BJP has no leader of Vajpayee's repute who brought in the additional 8% of the vote that helped BJP form a government in 1999. And that leader has to be from UP, where the party can grow the most.<br /><br />Now a leader is not born overnight and has to be groomed over a 5-10 year period. This is where the RSS's role becomes important. It is the only organization that can provide BJP the leaders and more importantly help it regain the moral compass it had lost track of the past few years. This is truly a long term project and only the RSS has the wherewithal to see it through. Of course, the RSS also needs to see some things differently, but its nothing that cannot be accomplished. In the interim, the BJP must play it role of opposition to the full and encourage its state governments to improve the level of work they are doing.<br /><br />My unstinted support for the BJP stems from the fact that its time that India took a right turn in its economy and politics.A continuum would mean more of under achievement in terms of wealth creation. The Congress cannot take that right turn because it is too short sighted and does not have the guts. The BJP must stand up now and try to define itself as a true Right of Center party. It owes this much to itself, its supporters, and ultimately to the country. The good people at Jhandewalan House and Ashoka Road must have realised this much. Lets hope they can see it through.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-33341218702619682392009-08-14T20:15:00.000-07:002009-08-14T21:18:32.387-07:00A Joke Called the ATS and other StoriesI'm posting after a long long hiatus, been busy in life doing meaningful things for a change. Plus there was no news at all. It was disarray in the BJP, with the prospect of a comeback looking bleaker with each passing day and was business as usual for the Congress in the Govt, shouting Inclusiveness from North Block's rooftops and doing nothing about anything. Also I was cut off from the idiotic Television Media which has always been my inspiration.<br /><br />Then Mr Ghulam Nabi Azad came along and provided some welcome entertainment with his foot in mouth disease. Blaming a dead 11 year old kid for spreading the Virus requires suspension of a good deal of Grey Matter, coupled with a dose of insensetivity. But what really set me thinking was a little noticed news event, the removal of MCOCA on Praygya Thakur and Col Purohit. It was a given that the baised English Media would not cover the event after the huge amount of screen time and reams of paper they had spent in telling us about the "Hindu Terrorists". Plus of course they had to stoke the Swine Flu fear to drive TRPs in an otherwise dull news season.<br /><br />What happens with the removal of MCOCA is that one of the main evidence of the Prosecution, the confession, becomes invalid. This makes the case even more fragile, making it rest just on video tapes and taped phone conversations, both inadmissable as evidence.<br /><br />Though the innocence of the accused is yet to be proved, the whole case begs a larger question, that of the extant that the governement is willing to go to for a few votes. As a wise English Judge had observed, It is better to acquit a hundred criminals than to convict a single innocent man. It is true that our Police and Judiciary are woefully slow and incompetent, but this case clearly is a conspiracy, with the involvement of the executive. Thankfully better sense has prevailed in the judiciary for now. If this turns out the I hope it would, the Sagarika Barkha media will have a huge collective egg on their faces. Of course they wouldn't report it, afterall who would like to make a fool of themselves. And the incompetency of the ATS will be further proved. What can be expected from an organization that cant even defend its own Chief from a 19 yr old Paki.<br /><br />A fun Fact to sign off with. In the last Lok Sabha elections, the EC had ordererd current Maharashtra DGP away from polling duties due to his Pro Congress bias. This year, no such notice has been issued. The Navin Chawla- Sonia Gandhi effect?vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-37535919759068001692009-05-12T10:40:00.000-07:002009-05-12T20:02:02.283-07:00Random thoughtsI'm suddenly starting to enjoy seeing Burkha and Shrill Sagarika on TV recently. The evident discomfort on their faces while discussing the Congress' poll prospects is amusing to say the least. They've been trying desperately for the past week to play the matchmaker between the left and the Congress and also wreck the allaince between Nitish and BJP, with spectacular failure. Nitish sharing the dais was the last straw for them and the secular diploma given to him was hastily withdrawn by none other than the Chancellor of the secularism university, Shri MMS. Barkha was almost angry at Nitish, especially after his kal ka kal dekhenge comment.<br /><br />Also amusing was the Foot in Mouth disease afflicting the spokepersons of the Congress party. After Renegade Rahul created a huge shitpile of mess, the Congress was blundering away with allies. Unsurprisingly, the Congress has displayed total lack of morals, dumping allies and friends with absolute impunity, Mamta and Lalu were left fuming. Some see it as hard headed behaviour of a tough political taskmaster, but I see it as the soliciting of customers by a old fat political whore. But particulary gratifying was the departure of Oily Moily from the TV sets as a result of his zeal in clearing up Rahul shit. Good riddance, I'd say. But I guess only Rahul Baba has the freedom to make a fool of himself in the Congress. Inner aprty democracy...haah.<br /><br />But something disgusting that I saw on Tv yesterday was Madam Italiano sitting besides a geriartic writer and listening to a poetic eulogy of a man who perhaps had a hand in the murder of her own husband. Does this woman have ANY self respect? Just goes to show how desperate the party is for power. The congress party simply collapses if its not in power for a lengthy period of time, simply because its the well oiled machinery of favours the binds the congress together. Without power, there's no cash, and without cash, no congress men. This is what has happened in the states of Gujarat, MP ,C'garh and UP. Well motivated cadre based parties like the BJP and the CPI fare better here.<br /><br />Right from the beginning of this election season, we've been led to believe that this election was Congress' for the taking. The media had put out poll after poll anouncing that it would be a walkover for the UPA. But their spins have unravelled spectacularly as the voter has talked. NDTV was the last man standing till the 3rd phase, when it gave the Congress 171 seats. At the end of the fourth phase they refused to give any figures, except of course their prepostrours satta market figures(pig headed idiots). Even Yogendra Yadav refused to pinpoint the figures. But the thing about Yadav is that his misinterpretations are based on actual statistics. But Dorab Sopariwala of NDTV conjures up mythical figures based on pig headed statistical operations on false data collected from non existant people. And even if that does'nt work out in your favor, as you see it, you can always quote the satta market for spins.<br /><br />But I've always wondered why these journalists are so pro congress. It must be their education actually. Without fail, all of them are from elite colleges in Delhi, where their youth must have been spent in listening to stupid speeches about Communism. But the surprising thing is that inspite of practising a profession where facts are your only tool, these journos have been so brainwashed that they cannot see the spectacular failure of Socialism and the Disaster of Congress rule. That makes them pretty dumb.<br /><br />If governance record was the only criteria for voting in India, the BJP would be a shoo in almost everywhere. Read this<a href="http://ajayshahblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/maharashtra-vs-gujarat-on-cotton-and.html"> http://ajayshahblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/maharashtra-vs-gujarat-on-cotton-and.html</a>, just another example of how disastrous ideas of Nehruvian Socialism have been.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-52784774882197811812009-04-15T09:38:00.000-07:002009-04-26T22:19:54.911-07:00A Case of Exploding EgosMy pun on the amazing book by Mohd Hanif, was inspired by the tepid response(tepid only by oratory, not words) given by that glorified -seat warming -petty babu-masquerading as the PM MMS to Advani's exhortations that he was the weakest PM ever. Now I wonder whether MMS was actually hurt enough to say the things that he did or was he ordered by the Italian to say so.<br />Two things suggest the latter.<br />1) MMS being the petty Yes Madam babu that he is, would'nt do anything without being directed to do so and<br />2) He actually was the weakest PM we've had (I dont count Gowda Gujaral as PMs). So he shouldn't feel hurt when the truth is told.<br /><br />What really pains me here is the kid glove treatment that the 'free' media has given to MMS and the Italian. He is the ONLY democratically elected leader to have never given an interview. And now his family is being brought out to give interviews to the obliging media. In our dumb media's eyes Rahul's post poll alliances are more important than the Naxals. The media laps up everything that the family dishes out like faithful dogs.<br /><br />Which brings me to the reason of my post. Why the congress is bad for us.<br /><br />This, the Undie TV's of the world won't tell you.<br /><br />The Congress party has gotten away with 55 years of absolute misgovernance without anybody raising an eyebrow.<br /><br />Nehru was a wimp who did'nt know what he was doing. Communism or capitalism. He served a mishmash of both taking the worst of both the worlds, encouraging crony capitalism through excess govermentel controls and also forgetting the basic faciliteis the a socialist governement provides. So we got the IIT's but did'nt get the primary schools. We had the AIIMS but not the health centres. All in all he was a failure who lost a big war and left the country poorer, hungrier and more corrupt than it was in 1947.<br /><br />Indira Gandhi was a thug and a dictator. Period. She presided over the criminalisation of politics through her cynical maneouvers and a steady devaluation of the constitution, culminating in the excesses of the emergency. Whatever good she has done the dictatorial and the anti development attitude of hers set the country back by years. Of course we were better off in terms of food, but no where near our potential.<br /><br />Rajiv was another man who did'nt know what he was doing. Lurking his way from one crises to another IPKF, shah bano, Bofors, St Kitts and Nevis, he was our disaster guy.His only lasting acheivment, Lowering of the voters age.<br /><br />Narsimha Rao, is a person I dont know much about. Though I must admit, he inherited a huge shit pile of mess from the Gandhis, and did a commendable job of cleaning it up. He was the driving force behind the reforms (encouraged along by the IMF). Basically reforms meant taking out the stupid laws that Dumb Nitwits like Nehru and Indira had put in place. So no much credit there.<br /><br />Gowda and Gujaral were an abomination on the post of the Prime Minister.<br /><br />As is MMS.<br /><br />He has watched as the ministries he should control are doing their own thing. Some of them did good jobs, like the aviation ministry, but some of them just did'nt, and he did'nt say anything. This supposedly 'honest' man watched as ministers stole merrily. The full form of DMK became Delhi's Money to Karunanidhi.<br /><br />Of course there was growth, but most of it was default and in the Khyali Pulao sectors like I banking and IT. Hard things like Roads, Railways Power were simply forgotten. As was the massive increase in food prices.<br /><br />Orders from the high priestess has prevented him from appointing a full time Finance Minister and a full time Foreign Minister. This ,at a time when we are facing a huge economic crisis and our neighborhood is going up in flames. His electile dysfunctionalism has gotten translated into executive delinquency. Do these people care about the country or about their posts?(Not to mention, their delinquent sons)<br /><br />Do you really want to vote for a party with such a pathetic record at governance?<br /><br />Here's why the BJP is a better option. Its a rightist party and favors lesser governement and better srevices to the people. Its about giving the governement back to the people.<br />When the BJP says it will provide rice at Rs 2, it wants to introduce food coupons, so that the poor can buy good rice from private shops, not the shit that you get at the PDS (most of it is pilfered anyway).<br />The BJP wants to talk about infrastructure, it is the only party to have released an infrastructure vision.<br />The BJP wants to bring back the black money, and thereby bring back the forgotten topic of corruption into public debate.<br /><br />And Barkha wants you to talk about Priyanka's nose and Rahul's dimples.<br /><br />Congresswalas will tell you 'look at the NREGA, it has given money to poor people'.<br />Well it has, but also it has kept them terribly poor. What kind of assets are we creating by giving money to people for digging ditches and filling them up. Build more roads, you idiots. As the saying goes, Dont give fish to the hungry, teach them how to Fish.<br /><br />What about the stupendous profits in the Rail Ministry?<br />Well the second largest employer cannot be a one man show, right. And how could have Laloo over loaded those wagons without the 17000 crores that Nitish set aside for safety. We have'nt seen a ghastly train accident which used to be very common. Thank Nitish.<br />Jaswant Singh and Yashwant Sinha were the only FMs who bothered about the tax machinery and reformed it. Making it more simpler for people, through the use of IT.<br /><br />And of course the BJP built great roads and had a robust foriegn relations policy. And it had far fewer terror related deaths.<br /><br />The BJP has demonstrated its good governance credintials amply. It has pulled Rajasthan and MP out of BIMARU and Bihar is on its way. Gujarat of course is the model of governance.<br /><br />The Congress also raises the secular vs communal bogey. It wants parties to pass a secularism test. But do you think their 'secularism' is a matter of high principle ? No it isn't. It is pandering to the minority votebank by raising the threat of the BJP. The way they flirted with Hindu, Sikh and Muslim extremists in the 80's shows that they are a party that will do anything for votes and power. As soon as they get into power, their first thought is, how do I win the next election? The number of times that the constitution has been subverted by them to hold on to power especially in Goa and Jharkhand shows how power hungry they are.<br /><br />And about the community that uses its precious vote not to elect a good candidate but to keep out a particular party, well, they are destined to live in misery. They chose it. They'll get their Sachar Committee reports, nothing more.<br /><br />This election should be about government delivery of services, And we dont need an overhaul of the system for that. Look at Surat, where the SMC provides world class services within the current framework. Mumbai can learn from Surat, it should. Surat can only be replicated by a government that thinks the government is of the people. Not by a party that thinks the governement belongs to family, passed down from mother to son.<br /><br />PS- To end, a quote from twitter<br /><span class="status-body"><span class="entry-content">NDA log tanki bharkar gaadi tumko diye aurtum saadechaar saal mein, bina koi maintenance ke,bina repair-reform ke,poor itanki khalikardiye :)<br />Also I have accused Sonia G of many things that she is clearly not capable of intellectually.

As I dusted out my old stamp book, I was struck by the kid's lack of knowledge or interest in the hobby. When we were growing up(10 years back, I'm not that old), philately was a big hobby. We had a gang of stamp aficionados, and would set off on our stamp quest every weekend, seeking out new bakras to exchange stamps with. We would target those kids who had a large philatelic inheritance and seek out friendships with them, just for stamps. Boy were those days fun!!!! Not only that, got to learn a lot from the whole hobby.<br /><br />But nowadays I see a distinct lack of interest in philately in the young people of today. They are not simply bothered, they play cricket, watch T.V. and go to sleep. If you are lucky, you might find them reading something other than textbooks. I was pondering over this demise of the hobby for quite a while and the search for the answer led to the question as to why WE collected stamps. The answer was of one word. Curiosity.<br /><br /><br />Ours was an innocent age. Mobiles were a feet long, there were 10 cable channels and of course internet was something rich kids had. There was no information overload, no screaming anchors or no 24*7 internet. And we had curiosity about the world. I remember how thrilled I used to be when I would get a stamp from a far off country like Burukina Faso(bet kids haven't even heard that name). How I would place it on the map and look up the Manorama year Book to read all about it. I remember how I learnt about the British Boer wars and the Angkor Wat because of a stamp.<br /><br />Come to think of it, Its amazing how much you can learn from a square inch of paper. How much of history is hidden in there, waiting to be explored. I would owe a lot of my knowledge to those pieces of paper.<br /><br />Of course, kids today have wikipedia and what not. Their curiosity(whatever remains of it) is satisfeid by a few types on the keyboard. And in the process, a lot of magic goes missing. And so does a whole world of stamps and the stories behind them.<br /><br />This is one of the many quaint ways technology has impacted the way we live. We revel in the connectivity but have we ever taken a moment to think what are the little things that we have lost due to technology. If we do, I am sure each one of us could come up with many quant little things that we dont see any more.<br /><br />Gosh!!! Writing this has made me seem older, it all seems so long ago. And in a slight irony, I am logging on to Facebook now to look out for my old stamp buddies.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-350482624474829752009-01-29T08:31:00.000-08:002009-01-29T12:12:11.621-08:00The Media Morons are Losing ItBefore I go on I'd like to apologize for the longish break. MBA dreams needed some work. GD PI prep and all that bullshit. Actually haven't much to do, so thought to go in for MBA.....lets see how it works out.<br /><br />Actually due to all the kinda prep, I had got into a sort of writers block (yeah I know tooo amateur for that, but what the hell!!! ) But today, Arnab Goswami gave me some inspiration. After ranting on that irrelevant Mutalik and making wild allegations based on mere conjecture, he aired a Dawn News report on alleged RAW agent and then proceeded to mock the channel for its standards with aplomb. Without even being tongue in cheek or a trace of irony.....me being the discerning viewer saw them as the sides of the same coin, the coin which has the portrait of idiots on both the sides!!!<br /> <br />As the world economy is tanking and jobs are being lost, as the Indian laborer losing his job, and while the PM is recuperating from a serious surgery and a 74 year old workaholic is handling 6 portfolios, and polls being 2 months away(as announced by an idiotic Dy EC), as Pakistan is set to activate its denial ministry again, what do you expect the great Indian Media to report?<br /><br />Goons in Mangalore, an idiot of the lunatic fringe hogging the headlines, and to top it all, a jilted lover committing suicide.<br /><br />Such is the journalistic bankruptcy of the electronic media and it has disproved all the economic theories about competition giving better value to the consumers. Because this is what competition has done to the media.<br /><br />I realised this while watching DD today, the Lok Sabha channel. The discussions there were so civilized and speakers so knowledgeable that I was left stunned.No screaming Sagarika or breathless Barkha or Raajdeep rhetoric. Just an impassioned debate that derived it watch ability from the good ol fashioned thing called content and examples. Admitted, the production values were tacky, but the heart of the makers was in the right place. And DD doesn't have competition.. What this competition and 24*7 news has made them do is to make them sink to the lowest common denominator and make the television idiot proof, and as a result of the process they've made and idiot out of us all.<br /><br />And if this isn't an issue of corporate governance, than what else is? Its about delivering value to your most important stakeholder, your customer. Because remember, its us, the well informed consumer, the advertisers target, who revenues to the channels. the advertisers are not interested in the loser who is interested in "chajje pe billo rani". So we as a consumer have a right to better news, not Chand Fiza bullshit.<br /><br />I'd love it if some of us took the initiatives and the concerned among us just switched off these lazy channels and watched soaps instead. Unfortunately that is all we can do as a consumer.<br /><br />PS<br />The next EC, Naveen Chawla was given a character certificate by the SC stating that "the person is not fit to hold any public office that demands fairness" for grovelling before Indira G. And look at him now.<br />Better news that Pramod Mutalik, What say?vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-40501228497665158682008-12-31T07:32:00.000-08:002008-12-31T07:52:26.547-08:00Happy New YearHere's wishing all my three readers a very very Happy New Year!!!!!!<br /><br />Hope this is the year of change in the country, when a party that deserves power will get it, when the economy will boom back, when people like Raj and Antulay become extinct,.<br /><br />Let this be the year when people get a little more tolerant, and there are lesser protests for frivolous reasons. Hope this is the year when separatists and pakis realise that Kashmir will stay with India. I hope this year will be the one when the Supreme Court gets more active and brings back its transformational zeal.<br /><br />Let this be the year when the Congress realizes that perhaps fighting Terror is more important than fighting the General election, and that Pakistan is the real enemy, not the BJP.<br /><br />At a personal level, I hope I get a direction in life and wish that I blog about my personal successes along with that of the BJP's. And I really want to get a girlfriend ;)<br /><br />Also I hope the sportsmen bring us glory this year too, and the film makers keep on experimenting. I hope that 2009 is nothing like 2008.<br /><br />Didn't say anything about the terrorists. There's only so much one can hope.<br /><br /> And last but not the least, i hope this is an year of BHAK for all.

I know this list can go on and on but my aim is to compress the list and represent a cross section of losers.<br /><br />Raj Thackrey -He is the man I did not want to put on my list because he is not worth it. Not even worth disgust, I actually put him here on popular demand . Completely a media created monster, he has failed to win even a single seat in the Mumbai civic polls. He is a political nobody, and is a shameless hypocrite. I would have abused him in the most choicest of apt abuses, save for the fact that I am actually afraid of the Maharashtra Police(who have no other job to do other than catching abusive bloggers and framing imaginary terrorists, and the same goes for other politicos). This country has no real Freedom of Speech. But get this clear Mr Raj. your Bombay(yeah right!!!) is not a Maharashtrian city. It is Gujarati, made from the entrepreneurial spirit of countless nobodies from Navsari to Anjar. Its spirit is Gujarati and would have gone to Gujarat, had it not been for the hysterical self immolation attempts and the idiocy of Nehru. Actually, I ve spent too many words on this pathetic fool, but I request him to build a shivaji statue in the middle of sea and keep a look out for bhayyas infiltrating through the sea route.<br /><br /><br />TR Baalu- Well not many would know him, but this man has the distinction of single handedly fucking up our National Highway Program. His megalomaniacal tendencies have led him to change the NHAI directors once in every 3 months and the highway construction has ground to a groaning halt. Worse, his ministry is sitting on 5000 crores of funds collected as tolls from us. One big reason you should vote for the BJP this time around. (Bring back khanduri) Next year, the voters of his constituency should road roll him.<br /><br /><br />P.C. Chidambaram-The sheer arrogance of this man is nauseating; his policies disastrous. Probably the most over rated minister in the history of this country(he has a lotta competition), his mantra is to spend astonishing amounts on dud schemes(because senorita tells him to) and squeeze the middle class with irrational taxes, because we shut up and pay. He took 4 years to initiate a single reform measure. He is singular reason I did not apply to Harvard this year. If it churns out these kinda fools, I wouldn't rather go there. Now he is on his way to fill the shoes of the great Shivraaj Patil and am sure he'll do full justice to it.<br /><br /><br />Barkha Dutt, Sagarika Gosh et al- The screaming hysterical ladies of Indian television urgently need a voice coach. They equate journalism and asking tough questions to screaming incessantly at the participants of their talk shows in the process making Mamta Banerjee look like a domesticated cow. And to top it all, they have the balls(sic) to believe that they can shape the opinion of the nation. Ladies, please go see a doctor, or better, go to a journalism school.<br /><br /><br />Rahul Gandhi- A philandering yuvraaj, he is clearly under- endowed in the intellectual department, as his hemvati-kalaavati speeches show. His utterances are pathetically juvenile at best and no wonder the negative IQ losers in the media lap it up some times even calling him India's Saviour(God save India). He is in the position that he is in just by the conjecture of his birth.Otherwise he'd be hunting for some clerical job. Dude, go join some permanent Big Boss ala RM or go get lost in the Colombian Jungles. You deserve no more.<br /><br />PS Although this list is almost exclusively filled with people from the political walk, there are indeed many deserving luminaries from other worlds, who I could not accommodate because of the single minded obssesion I have with politics. Here I would like to propose those names<br /> Sharukh Khan, for his depressing overacting in Rab ne bana di jodi and also to Aditya Chopra, for stealing the film's story from a third grade kid's essay book.<br /> Ramalinga Raju, for his astounding corporate governance record.<br />The Real Estate companies, for their obsession with 50% margins and for letting their greed better of them even in times of distress.<br /><br />This list could go on and on guys, but I think this is a fair cross section. Comments and suggestions solicited.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-14270277343437145612008-12-17T09:21:00.000-08:002008-12-20T07:34:26.104-08:00People We Could do Without Next YearAs I write this, another eventful year is coming to a close. For the UPA its been business as usual, exhibiting with aplomb its pathetic ineptitude in governing this country, as we have bungled from one disaster to another. The colossal failure of this government will only be known when we get down to pick the pieces, and trust me the news aint gonna be any good. The economy is in the doldrums because of the implementation of stupid populist programs that have been deemed as a failure. The infrastructure projects that the last government took up are not moving and the telecom ministry has become shady. Of course you have been shielded from this bad news by the media, which is a collection of Congress rags and Communist mouthpieces, as they believe that serving the haughty lady in 10 Janpath is akin to serving the country.<br />Anyways as this year comes to a close, I thought of making a list of people for whom I have no love lost. Magazines publish various lists, power, person of the year etc. But here I would like to put out a list of persons whom India would'nt miss much.<br />So here goes....<br /><br />1) Arundhati Roy- The fact that this lady even manages to get media space is stupifying to me. Her views are always tailored to grab media attention and obviously not well thought through. A one book wonder, she obviously has no job but to malign India and her institutions. This lady created various falsehoods about Gujarat riots such as rapes etc, which are folklore even today and have been exposed by the SC's SIT to fabrications of a deranged mind. Supported ably by another Hindu hater, Teesta Setalvad. Both of thse ladies should be sent to Tibet where no one can hear their idiotic insiniuations.<br /><br />2) Mamta Banerjee- The less said about the screaming lady from Bengal, the better. She has a Nano sized egg on her face, and it stinks. I am petitioning Modi to give her a retirment house i Sanand.<br /><br />3)Amar Singh- This wheeler dealer always manages to get away from all the corruption in the world and the media does'nt care. Last heard he had his snout in Clinton's pork barrel. He donated 23 crores to The Clinton Foundation, and with declared assets of 37 crores, he is truly one altruistic mind.<br /><br />4) Zardari and his Cohorts- Mr 10 percent seems to be losing it. Constant flip flops, wild accusations, weird house arrests and then denials man, I am begining to lose him. Everytime he opens hi strap, disaster's lurking. Poor chap cant keep anyone happy The Indians are gunning for him, the army is contemptuous of him, the mullahs hate his attitude and then there is Sharif. Last heard he has started a Ministry Of Denial in Islamabad whose job is to deny everything India says. They have issued 9987 denials in absolutly incomprehensible urdu and we're and still counting. Their tagline is -No, We didn't.<br /><br />5) Gowda Clan-This bunch of illiterate idiots have screwed Karnataka enough with their anti development agenda. I wonder what kind of morons vote for this family. They are the masters of the worst party in India, the Janata Dal (Sewage). They are bereft of any ideology save that of power and make a conspicous show of their lack of morality. Hers hoping BSY digs a huge pit in Hassan and buries them there.<br /><br /><br />The list will continue soon but a small Post Script about people who are missing I wont Miss next year.<br />Shivraaj Patil- What can be said about a Home Minister whose First statement after taking over is "We are ready to have meaningful intercourse with the terrorists". I can think of only one thing. Goodbye, asshole.<br />AR Antulay- Our own non state actor, played into the hands of Pakistan by making wild allegations, probably under the cynical directions of Queen Maino and MMS.<br />Vilas Rao Deshmukh- Watching him on Maharashtra's chair, I was dumbfounded! Man this chap had some kinda glue thing with the chair going on. He confirmed to the true congress culture of getting and sticking on to power at any cost. now he has lost power, hope his son's atrocious movies stop too.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-33149785846812566032008-12-01T20:24:00.000-08:002008-12-08T12:09:47.429-08:00La Trahison Des ClercsWhat a week it has been!! A truly tragic week for the country and especially for Mumbai, a city I've lived in for 10 years and come to love dearly. It was heart wrenching for me to see the Taj burned, a place for aspiration for young penniless youth like me. We used to say in humour, Taj me party dunga...Dont know when it will open again but hope its soon enough.<br />A period of 48 hrs has passed since the terrorists and the mourning time is almost over. Its time to get cynical and start hard questions. This attack only adds to the long resume of achievements of this pathetic government headed by an effete Prime Minister who is directed by an Italian idiot helped by her loser son. The Media too has behaved irresponsibly with the likes Raajdeep Sluredesai putting spin on their version of things. I betcha they were hoping for this to be a Hindu attack When I saw reports of vermilion on terrorists, I had a bad feeling...I could almost see CNN IBN putting out clinching evidence in the form of the sadhvi practicing yoga and hence saying that she knew yoga and escaped the jail,shot the people and came back. Slurdesai and Padmashri Burqa Dutta went into an overdrive against Modi visiting Mumbai. They obviously dint tell you the complete story which is this http://indiatoday.digitaltoday.in/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21435&sectionid=19&issueid=82&Itemid=1<br />Likewise, stories of Yuvraaj Rahul baba partying all through the night were completely suppresed. That the media has its own agenda is a known fact. I humbly request all my 4 readers not to be fooled by it and refer to nationalistic journals like offstumped.nationalinterest.in for the complete picture.<br />The response of the government was callous, lazy and apathetic. Manmohin addressed the nation 24 hrs after the disaster. Senorita was only 'angry and upset' and Shivraaj looked positively drunk on national TV. Business as usual here. But the piece de resistance was the Idiotic Prime Minister inviting the ISI chief to show him evidence!!!!!! What was Manmohin thinking? That this was some fucking Parent teacher meeting where he'd have told the chief that how badly his boys were behaving and the chief would have gone home and scolded his boys? No! He'd have gone back and wiped the trail clean. What a nut we have for a PM!!! Did he really get those degrees or is the Oxford University so bad.<br />The sad fact is that terrorism discourse in this country has been plagued by blatant minorytism in the past 4 years. It is ironic that Manmohini will try and build the same Anti Terror apparatus in the last hundred days in his office that he helped dismantle in the first hundred days of his/her office. The delay in the hanging of Afzal Guru to please muslims is a case in the point. The media has been dominated by left liberal assholes who only want Hindus to keep on apologizing to Muslims. This brings me to the title of my post, a famous line in French poem which means the treason of the learned. It explains what India has been going through since Independence. At every point this country has been betrayed by the elite ie congress rulers. Right from the Hindu hating Kashmiri loser to Power lusting Indira to the Senorita, this country has been betrayed. The events in Mumbai were an extension of the same chain of events.<br />The Congress party has resorted to dirty tricks whenever it is sure of losing. Think the St Kitts case where non existent accounts of V.P.Singhs son were revealed with the connivance of the stooge media. Or may be Hawala Case or may be the numerous dismissals of elected governments through the goverener's powers. The Malegaon Blast case took also the same path. Had not the jihadis intervened the 'revelations ' would have continued till May, ultimately implicating a senior RSS functionary. So while the jihadis were planning the attacks, the ATS was playing games on behalf of its political masters . All these actions are an open invite to the jehadis to come and kill us. And the channels will chant the Spirit Of Mumbai chant which means that come kill us, rape us, destroy us and somehow, we'll blame ourselves.<br />The media will always tell us that all the politicians are the problem when the Cong is in a tight spot. They will tell us that the BJP did nothing too. Well at least it dint support the terrorists?<br />And we did build the the fence then which has prevented infiltration to a large extant. The intent of the BJP, (niyat) was positive, unlike this administration. We have a PM who loses sleep over the interrogation of a Muslim and himself allows the torture of a Sadhvi. The cong now is scared of being wiped out in this election and is getting the media to sponsor a Dont Vote campaign so that the Kangi prospects are brightened. Please dont be fooled. This is THE ONLY country in the world which has fought back 3 insurgencies Punjab, Nagaland, and Andhra Pradesh. I still have hope that we will defeat this Islamist menace, but for that we have to elect the right party. The Lotus has to come to power if the treason of the learned has to stop.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-27733088593288049922008-11-17T12:10:00.000-08:002008-11-17T23:42:42.258-08:00The Sun never did set on the EmpireSo guys I am back after a short hiatus(like anybody cares about my break). And the readers must be eagerly awaiting my next post (like anybody reads this blog).My sad attempts at deriving humor from self deprecation aside, I'd like to use this blog to condemn the pathetic behavior of one Mr. Gupta.This soft spoken blackmailer used my desperation for a few pieces of paper to supress my rights of speech.I stand by what ever I said about Gupta earlier.<br />Now that I am done with forcing you to read my personal rantings about a blackmailer,let me get to my post.All of my readers with minimal brains would have guessed it's about the British Empire.And they guessed rightly.So friends let me introduce you to the last outpost of the British empire....India.<br />Yes,its true ,the current administrative superstructure of India is exactly as the British left it in 1947.So lazy were our much 'venerated' law makers like Mr Ambedkar,that they didn't bother to change the were administrative machinery and the attitude that the must hated masters had created for their own benefit. The constitution is essentially a copy paste of Englands'(which ironically is unwritten.) .If they weren't lazy,then they were plain dumb to not have realized that the administration's attitudes to govern a colonial outpost and an independent country are vastly different.The stupid kashmiri pm was such a pathetic Anglophile that his India of dreams was essentially a cut paste of England.Nothing reflects our irrelevant administration than our pathetic police,arguably the largest collection of cowards anywhere in this planet.Our police men are first of the blocks to kill unarmed civilians and lathi charge innocent students.But give them a few goondas like Raj,they pee in their pants.Nothing reflects the cowardliness of our police forces than the practice of killing unarmed criminals in cold blood,aka encounters.The police is there just to suck the blood out of us citizens.They pounce on us even if we commit an innocent mistake like jumping the signal,but the same cowards grovel before politicians and goondas of every kind.<br />Its not entirely the police's fault though.The real culprits are the political machinery of the congress party,whose driving force behind the independence struggle was nothing but a carnal lust for power.The congress party just wanted to replace the gora sahibs.What else will explain their reluctance to change the structure of the colonial police?The police then,as it is now,was completely pliant to its political masters.The the idiotic kashmiri,who spoke out vociferously against detention without trail in pre independence days,ironically retained the same power for his police.<br />Likewise the other departments of our Administration are afflicted by the same colonial mindset.The only notable difference between colonial times and now is the all pervasive corruption in the higher bureaucracy.The British were a lot less corrupt.<br />And at the heart of this huge cut paste operation lies the parliament, that collections of nuts,sycophants,babalogs and criminals.That institution is really a blot on democracy,not only in India,but on democracy anywhere in the world.The time has come when intellectuals of the country begun questioning the appropriateness of parliamentary democracy for India.The most basic of assumptions that a parliamentary system makes is that people will drive the representatives to deliver.However that has never happened in India because of the voters' general apathy and their proclivity to vote along caste lines.Bottom up change can never happen India because of citizen apathy.we just don't give a flying fuck.India needs a top down approach to administration, a more presidential form of governance,where the parliament is just there for checks and balances,not as a decision making body.The efficacy of this style of governance has been thoroughly demonstrated by modi in gujarat.Indians in fact desire a strong leader in their hearts.<br /><br />I don't have much hope that this generation can or will affect the change needed to 'liberate' India but i believe when my generation comes to power,it will deliver.And I believe mt generation is strongly nationalistic and very right wing.So when we will have real power,the Italian feet lickers and the comrades can go for a hike.<br />PS<br />The continuing saga of the raped nun baffles me.She has lost her thick malyaali accent when she appeared before the media in a press conference.And when the orrissa police tried to get her to identify the accused,she refused,citing trauma.Yeah right.Apparently for the good nun giving titillating descriptions of her disrobing to the national media is less traumatic than identifying the accused.She has been avoiding the orissa police ever since.Who raped whom?As I see it, this case too will go where the other rapes- of- nuns-by-saffron-activists went.-Into oblivion due to innate false hood.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-67863629260960824052008-10-22T12:22:00.000-07:002008-10-22T21:15:12.426-07:00The Incoherent Rantings of an Angry Hindu-Part 1"If it weren't for eye for an eye,I would be blind and the other person would have both his eyes"<br /><br />Well I am angry today.In fact I've been angry the past few days.The reason is a document called sathya darshini,published by a Christian denomination called new life and spread around mangalore.The reason I am angry is that the document calls my gods names.It calls my ancestor, Sage Vashisht as a person who took his mother as a wife and his other wife as a prostitute.It calls Brahma as idiotic and Krishna as a evil man.That got me angry.What got me more angry is the complete repression of this document in the sickular media.As those certified hindi haters Rajdeep Slurdesai and Suckerika Ghosh were going on about the Bajarang Dal in Mangalore,they conveniently forgot to mention this Document.It doesnt serve there purpose na.<br />Now I shall my interpretation of the events.You've had the side of slurdesai and suckerika.Now hear me out and then decide.<br />Karnataka<br />After Nikolas Sarkozy scolded our Prime Minister about the 'massacres' i heard him condemn the violence in reply in reply.What i din hear him do was condemn the hateful literature and the slanderous activities of the missionaries (and i concluded he belonged to the 3rd sex.Bloody incompetent Sonia-Feet-Licker.)As a hindu I am tired of my religion being made fun of.And then criticized for venting it's suppressed anger.What do we do then?That the missionaries are luring poor people with cash is a fact,but no one accepts that.(I personally know people).And rabid missionaries go on wantonly converting people with with inducements.Conversions affect the balance of society.The society in mangalore has evolved over a thousand years with a right balance of every interest.What these missionaries are doing is upsetting this balance which has been achieved after a lot of trail and the error.<br />And the best part.The Mangalore Catholics,who have a beautiful syncretic hindu christian culture, don't support the conversions.And what you saw on tv was them opposing the attacks on their churches .What the media wont tell you is that most of the conversions are done by fundamentalist American Protestant Christian organizations,awash with money from the states.(The nut heads of the dal obviously wont know this distinction,)In fact the catholic church discourages conversions.These christians even try to convert catholics,so rabid is their belief.The relatives of these missions run sex slave camps and have teen boy fucking priests.So the next time you criticize the bajarang dal,look who you are supporting.<br />My solution to mangalore, please bring in the anti conversion law that yeddi was talking about ASAP<br />Orissa<br />The situation in orissa is admittedly more complex and volatile due to centuries old ethinic tension.But heres the lowdown.A VHP aid worker,87 year old Swami Laxminand ji was killed by the maoists in August.Ergo, the question pops then why attack the Christians?Well the reason is the good missionaries had a part here too.Heres what slurdesai wont tell you........<br />The district of Kandhamal lies bang in the middle of the red corridor created by the maoists from malikanagri to bhubaneshwar.Now, Kandhmal is their weak link and they dont have much support here.The reason is,yes you guessed it right,the Vishwa Hindu Parishad.<br />The Kandhs of the district ,largely tribal are allied with the vhp,mainly due to to the charitable work of the swamiji.So the maoists tried to seek the support of the other sc community in the district, the panas.So who helped them there?Our good christian missionaries,for the panas are largely Christian.So my enemy is your enemy funda came into work and the maoists bumped off the old swamiji.Thus we lost the bulwark against the reds in orissa.Missionaries happy,Maoists happy!!! Simple.So the next time you decry the violence in orissa look who you are supporting(the maoists)<br />The Larger Picture<br />Although I am not justifying the violence here,I am not condemning it either.we hindus must realize we are the victims of years of repression my the muslims and to some extant th christians.But to keep the secular veneer over our sham democracy we act like we are the perpatrators of the injustices.This must stop.Every time theres a bomb attack the media goes on about the root cause of terrorism and about the alienation of the Muslims.If the hindus start using the root cause theory everything will go back to the massacres of millions of hindus of this land by the Muslim armies.If we analuse the growth rate of hindus and muslims over the years ,there are at least 6 million hindus less than there should be.This is the Holocaust they dont teach you about in schools.<br /><br />My next post will be a small theological rebuttal of conversions.<br />p.s.<br />A wierd post script<br />The nun,whose rape you heard about,was apparantly raped many times.<br />First by a single man inside the church.In the next account she was apparantly raped by a gang,still inside the church.Next by a gang outside the church in the street.Next account,gang raped again on the street,this time stripped too (with a graphic and titillating description of the order of the clothes)<br /><br />Fair Reporting?You decide.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-89774552169092777992008-10-21T12:35:00.000-07:002008-11-09T10:29:18.148-08:00Disaster At Arnala Part 2My last post was about politics and my world view.But this Blog is dedicated to Team BhakPics with which i spent my last days in hostel.The team is displaced now.Arjun must be fooling around with Jindal.Handoo was anyways too arabic for my taste ;).But my heart goes out for Sohit in sad house where the aromas of mafco and gd must be wafting in through the window.But he cant breathe any of those because he must be stinking with a bullshit.I have sent my invitation to sohit so may be he'll post some thing soon.<br />But for now lets get back to the story.<br />So here we were walking towards swagat beach resort where the best part was that it was unlimited.Burpi was as usual irritatingly leading the way.If you want to know how to cross the thin line between leading a group of people towards a destination and grossing them out with your leadership.watch burpi in actions.So,we reached swagat beach,avoiding any further trouble,in spite of Burpi.I could see the hard on that sohit was getting thinking about the unlimited pieces of chicken leg as we turned into the road leading towards swagat.However we were in for a disappointment.<br />Swagat Beach Resort was a 60 40 plot with a 10 feet swimming pool and children slide.If there was an overstatement made by a word,then it was the 'resort' in the swagat beach resort.The Unlimited 'food' counter was the kind that you get in bus stop canteens.Pathetic really.The disappointments on sohit's face was so apparent that you could wipe it off.Sad.We clearly were not going to get into it so we set off again under the leadership of colonel burpi towards a better beach resort.<br />After walking along the arnala beach,if you called it that,and we reached arnala beach resort.It was our last choice clearly,and having nowhere else to go, we paid 400 bucks each and got in.The start was nothing eventful.We had the bullshit breakfast and stripped down to our swimming costume and entered quote swimming pool unquote.There was some music and we danced to it.It was quite boring actually and the only wothwhile thing to do was touch and feel khazanchis luscious body.Which i did to the fullest extant possible.After some frolicking around we ate the unlimited food.Felt kinda sad for sohit as he couldn't get his chicken leg.After lunch we had a small nap and there too burpi,true to his spirit,irritated me majorly.Standing on top of me as i was sleeping with a wet pair of shorts.I felt so gross.Did he think of himself as kareena under whose skirt I'd like to peep?<br />So we frolicked around a bit more in the resort and soon went out towards the beach,barefoot like assholes.I dint go into the water but the others did.I just sat on the beach looking at the setting son.May be i had prescient knowledge of disaster.<br />Anyways we went back to the resort and did some more stunts.Burpi played ball with a group of losers while we attempted some water stunts invented by khazanchi.It was fun really and we didnt know how time passed.I got bored of it and went outside and dried myself.In fact, I was looking forward to getting out of there and visiting the jivdani mandir in virar (w).May be the goddess dint want it,cause soon after, disaster struck.<br />It all started out innocently.Sohit came up to me and said with an idiotic face"chal blue slide mein chalte hain".I declined,thinking to myself that what the devil had gotten into him.Sure enough he went into the slide and came back just as soon.But now his feet was leaking red.Being holi,my first reaction was that it was just red water from the pool.But it was blood.Sohit had a 4 inch cut on his feet,caused by a faulty tile in Sohit's much beloved blue slide.we soon got Sohit to the seating area,leaving behind a trail of red.Soon burpi had Sohit wincing in pain trying to stop the bleeding.Burpi was dabbing fists full of turmeric powder into the wound while Sohit was trying not to cry.We somehow bandaged sohit and got him outside into an auto and took him to Mahalaxmi nursing home.Soon he was in the hands of a doctor who was who was trying to sew his leg up.He seemed a competent enough to me but burpi was calling him an RMO,with a smirk on his face,whatever that meant.Each time the needle sunk into Sohit's feet his facial muscles contracted and came together.We could tell he was in great pain but he wasn't showing it.And while this was happening burpi was making a video recording with his punarjanmik dopod,calling it saw 4.The overwhelming feeling that I had was that of embarrassment.<br />Soon enough Sohit was all sewn up and we decided to go back to Mumbai.Our auto rickshaw driver was a kind soul,but a bit prone to exaggeration.Apparently a snake had bitten him on his hand and he had chopped of that hand to stop the poison from spreading.And sure enough,the hand in question had grown back miraculously.<br />Soon we were in virar station and boarded a train to andheri where we took a rickshaw.Buurpi of course figured in 2 more altercations 1 with me about the route to mumbai university and another with swapnil as he touched his cheeks.<br />So it was a quite ending to quite an eventful day.I am making the timeless by making a blog.<br />No offences meant to anybody folks.All was written in good humor and must be taken to be so.<br /><br />P.S.<br />The villain in the whole piece was my "girlfriends' " room mate.It was because of her positive review of arnala that i agreed to go there.Otherwise this whole thing wouldn't have happened.<br />And guys please don't go to arnala.It sucks!!!!vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-70941850501903181062008-10-17T22:37:00.000-07:002008-10-17T23:29:13.134-07:00U.S. And UsI have been following the American elections avidly on T.V. and the internet.In these times of uncertainty,I believe its the single most important election that we know.These election might define how america fights its,and the worlds,troubles.Because all said and done its still the most important country in the world.It goes down then so do we.<br />However the point of this post is the difference in our society and theirs,as inferred from their elections and ours.And the points that make are ones to be thought over.<br />1-They have leaders who they can look up to we have nobody.<br />America now has 2 genuine heroes running against each other.Sen McCain is great war hero who lead his men admirably in the 76 war.He didnt come back to the States even when he was given a chance to leave his prison because all his men were'nt released.Thats a hero.Barack Obama was brought up all over the world has graduated Summa Cum Laude from Harvard Law.We obviously dont have men from army to lead us but I'd love to have a look at the educational profiles of our many yuvrajs.I'm sure that we wont have many inspiring stories.The point is when i go out to vote i will not have many men whom i can look up to.Of course if i have to choose idiots i'll be spoilt for choice.<br />2-Our politicians are Pussies<br />Out of the many things that i observed in the american elections the most tlling was the fact that both the VP nominees have sons who are fighting in Iraq.Sons of our politicians,after living up their lifes,knocking up girls,getting columbian gfs,doing drugs or some gundagardi here and there,settle down peacefully into papa's business.Or go join reality shows.Disgusting really.Show me one yuvraaj who has had a record of public service prior to joining politics and i'll show you a pig that can fly.Can you imagine a politician sending his son to the army in India??Hah dream on.<br />3-We are not funny.<br />The best perspective that I've had about america is from the late night comedians.And boy are they funny.They are a joke factory and the kinds of jokes they crack on politicos show how really well entrenched freedom of speech is in america.And the fact that they can laugh at themselves.Those kind of below the belt jokes in India would have invited tod fod of the T.v. offices.If this were america I'd have surely known where the hell the columbian gf of a particular yuvraaj went.The major inference we can make from is this is that we respect authority too much.We are afraid to crack jokes on people on power and they are not sporting enough to take it.The way we treat people of authority with too much o undeserved respect can be seen in the laal batti cars.We expect,almost want people in power to behave unreasonably,to jump queus,to distort merit to forward kith and kin.<br />4-They expect a lot from their candidates.,Humko,sab chalta hai<br />I have said a lot about the U.S. candiadates so lets have a look at our candidates for prime minister.<br />The congress doesnt know who its candidate is.The incumbent has'nt won any elections in his life time and will come lst in the 2nd standard elocution competion of a municipal school.The psuedo prime minister cant speak hindi.She has answerd as many tough policy questions as many times I'had sex.And i am a virgin.<br />The third front candidate is a certified thief.Its really disgusting that vermin like that can run for prime minister.I dont have much to speak about that.<br />The only man in contention who is a good speaker and has a good governance record is advani.But hes simply too old to lead this nation.<br /><br />These 4 were the most telling differences that i thought were the most telling.<br />More about the causes and implications of these diffrences in my next post.vikramhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16596552400000505737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335742835815041096.post-46697266361038980262008-06-11T07:51:00.000-07:002008-10-17T20:26:38.480-07:00Disaster at Arnala<div>So here i go.This is the start of the Bhakpics Online Revolution.After a lot of talking and thinking i've sat down to write the first Bhakpics Blog.Before starting off,I'd like to give some credit to Mr Sohit Raina as he is the founder of Bhakpics.Not to forget Mr Saurabh Gupta an Mr Arjun Khandelwal.</div><br /><div>Now we come to the start of the story.For qiute some time we had been planning for a trip.We'd licked the railway site dry and yet our plans had come to a naught.Sohit was pretty frustrated with the whole thing and was desperate to go on an outing like a groom who wants to lose his virginity.After much dilly dallying we decided to go to Arnala beach near Virar.Alas,We had no inkling of what plans fate had for us.</div><br /><div>March 22 the D day arrived.Sohit came to wake me up with a little chaddi in his hands.he was pretty excited about the whole thing,which i found wierd,because thats so uncharecteristic of him.I dint exactly want to go but woke up nonetheless cause i dint want to screw the plan at this stage.All of us got ready with our stuff and I went to the 4th floor.As khazanchi was closin the door to his room,i said to sohit "yaar aaj kuch bhak pics honewali hai".people that i have a kali zubaan.guess sohit dint know this and paid no heed to my words and carried on as he hadnt heard me.To his great pain as he found out later.</div><br /><div>So we reached Vidyavhiar station in no great spirits.Burpi and Sohit were trying to lift up mine and khazanchi's spirit but to no great avail.Cant Decipher,but my feelings were pretty much anti trip.In hindsight i can claim it to be my sixth sense,but it would'nt be fair on my part to do so.</div><br /><div>Anyways we got to Virar station without any major hiccups.<br />So here we were at the virar station.Pretty much gaanv like feeling.We had no idea as to how to get to arnala......so we had our tea at a stall and asked around.People directed us to autos nearby.Here disaster struck.I was attacked by a Holi Misslile(Pun intended).My clothes were dripping red from the color.But this was just the begining of the disaster that was to come.<br />So we got into 1 of those 6 seater autos and set of towards arnala beach.In the middle of the way howevere we were waylaid by gangs of men asking for money to booze on holi.anshul was threatened badly,Sohit was attacked with color.But the attackers sudden attention was focused on khazanchi.Boy would they have loved to smear that white soft skin of his with color using their grubby hands.Guessed many of them were gay.So anyway we paid of these men 3 times and at the last nakabandi we got tired and simply walked off.Ou destination was Swagat beach resort.Which had the tagline "And the best part is it is unlimited"....to be contd<br
