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 !!

one heck of a trip..

its not everyday that u go for a trip. but the one which we went ws very exciting.. its not evryday tht u go to a 150 km trip unplanned and all of a sudden. so in that way it was special. we experienced everything in between. 8 of us. the trip wasnt wht it became at the beginning. at the start, the idea was just to hire a vehicle and roam around the city. but when we had hired the vehicle for a day, the thoughts began swirling. bright ideas came up of what to do with the vehicle in one day.. and amongst many options put forward, the Cherai Beach near Ernakulam was the one we fixed. Started in the night of that saturday. Lots of roaming abt the places and confusions in between regarding the routes. and besides that there was this shortage of fuel. a couple of times, we just reached the petrol pump, jus when the fuel was getting over. the whole night we were driving. at abt 2:30 am we went to our friends' house on the way. now tat was a surprise 2 his mom.. then at abt early morning ...

My Book Review - The Kite Runner

The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini Recently read this book. A wonderful work with blending of emotions. The story was interesting in the way it moved on from childhood to future life of the central character. It explains a lot about life in Afghanistan, though it is way back in the 80s, but still many times I felt really sorry for the life there. In a creation of fiction, it doesn't seem to be safe at all, so in reality, it would be worse.Would suggest anyone to read through it. The story is a definite example of the fact that, we do commit mistakes in our lives, and that there are chances to rectify them as well.

Should we exist this way ?

The curiosity of mankind with finding Life on another planet has always been there. Various scientific expeditions, telescopes roaming all over the outer space, various researches going on. And often there are reports all over stating that there are life supporting planets many light years away from our own. Considering the philosophical side of it. Suppose if we do come across such a world, where life exists. We as a life form called HUMANS, existing on this third planet of the solar system called Earth. We have our own definitions for things that exist. It was around 5 or 6 years ago that the planet Pluto was deprived of its "planet" status. And there are various things as well, which we define for our own sensibilities. As humans, we are supposed to co-exist with all the fellow living beings on the Earth. But that's not what is happening. Just wonder, that one day, we do discover that there is a life-existing planet other than ours, and there is a life-form as well...
