The art of accusing each other and halting procedures!

Stalled proceedings. Protesting MPs. And a not-so-properly functioning national legislature. Yes, these are the very exact things going in the supreme legislative body of our country, the Parliament. Equivalently in the two Houses, Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. Whatever happens, the Opposition and the Ruling party, do not seem to go on agreeable terms!

Well, giving it a thought, aren't these Members of Parliament been elected by the people to represent their constituency, with the purpose of striking a chord at the Parliament ? And here they are, stalling the various procedures carried at the Houses and the both the Houses adjourning, not even before the mid-day! This is ridiculous!

The Parliament should be the platform for political debates, and ensure the proper functioning of various things, through proper intensive debates and so on. A debate is essential to get points of view from all sides. But that's not happening presently. All we see every other day is, the procedures stalled mid-way.

And on the other end, with all the media attention that they grab, the political parties have the latest fancied hobby of accusing each other. No matter however big or small the reason be, X or Y wants the Resignation of the concerned authority. Not exactly the concerned authorities, but the Minister who is in-charge of that. (See this one). Now how pleasing is that ? As if, one resignation is going to solve all the problems in the country! Ah !!

Meanwhile, when all this goes on, there are a lot of Bills and Laws in the pipeline, waiting to be passed through the proper channel of discussion in the Parliament. God knows, when all this is going to take place !!

Congratulations to Sachin!

And after a wait of 369 days, the day has finally come! March 16, 2012 will go down in the history books as the day when the Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar reached the almost unrepeatable milestone of 100 International Centuries in the Game of Cricket. This particular century had garnered a lot of attention, especially since it was the 100th one. And also because it took such a long time. Possibly the most Sachin has taken between centuries before. But as we say, all good things come with a wait, Sachin also had to sweat it out for 33 innings and then came this much-awaited century. It hasn't been easy for him at all, it's not that you by-default get a 100 if you reach a particular point. He had to strive for each and every run, even for the single after the 99. That's how the game is. Just merely because he is an expert in the game, doesn't make his work easy. It just makes others to consider it as easy for him. For him, each and every match, each and every inn...

Questions of Sanity

Through those steps of solace Rise the moments of despair Speaking of one unanswered question "Why?" When the nights blind away With those chirps of silent pray From the crickets humming their way "Why?" For, those dark corners Seldom return a face to mark The happiness reveals with a big "Why?" And under the lights We picture our doomed agony Like shadows in perceptions of "Why?" Often, we turn around and look Behind our steps of grace To picture the realm of safety "Why?" Fear, the detestation from reality For those who keep onto it Often keep repeating endlessly "Why?" The time of redemption arises With moments of glory in dreams A glimpse of light again, a change "Why not?"

The Hollow Inside

They say it's okay The silence, is normal For it doesn't hurt anyone Lest it shall trouble none. The doldrums of time Keep beating itself, as one Never ending rhythm of Deep thoughts and tunes Our friend, the mirror Tells us stories of laughter In the silence, which shadows The storm inside us. We are for ever, by them They are, for themselves In the darkness of loneliness We are all one. The greenery, feels black The sunshine, dims dark The night is our dear friend Yet the darkness, doesn't help If help us, you possibly can't Understand us, you at least shall We live with our silences, in Our own mute wind chimes It's hard, to go by Smiling, yet burning inside Cause no one knows, that you're Living, yet dying inside. -- P.S: An inspiration and dedication to the very recently watched movie - Joker - enacted exceptionally by Joaquin Phoenix, and a marvellous story. More than the comic character, it's a great lot amount on ...
