Naked Dance of Indian Politics.

INDIA, the second most populated country in the world after China and a holy place for the people of different cultures and faiths, is unfortunately running out of a constructive opposition party in Parliament.

It is the irony of Indian politics that the parties sitting in opposition consider it their duty to oppose each and every bill, presented by the ruling party, and prove it an exploiting bill and against the general masses. It is true that Indian Constitution has given the freedom to all the members of Legislative Assembly and Parliament to oppose each and every action of ruling party, which is against the interests of citizens of India. But here the question is—Are our politicians really concerned about the welfare of Indians?

In western countries we have generally witnessed that the members of the house support only those bills, which are in the favour of citizens of that country. If the parties in opposition find the bill useful for the people, they happily accept it. Similarly, if the bill is of no use, even the members of ruling party come forward to support the Opposition and make all efforts to get that bill rejected. But in our country, the scenario is different. Here the parties in opposition seem more honest towards themselves and they oppose just for the sake of opposing.

For this old trend, ruling parties are equally responsible. They always show bossiness while presenting any bill and appointing people (Governors of state, chairperson of Censor Board, Deputy Chairman of Planning Commission and so on) of their choice and they don’t prefer taking the view of Opposition. The Presidential election is the recent example of it. Though Dr APJ Abdul Kalam was being considered the most eligible person for the post of President, UPA was not ready to withdraw its candidate, Pratibha Patil. And finally Patil won the election and has become the first woman President of India.

Now, opposition has created the similar situation. They are not ready to support UPA -Left alliance (ruling party) candidate Mohammad Hahmid Ansari for the post of Vice President. NDA and UNPA are supporting Najma Heptullah and Msood Ahmad respectively. Though everybody knows that Mohamad Hamid Ansari is the most deserving candidate for the post of Vice President as he is a man with multi-dimensional persona, opposition parties are not in his favour.

Ansari has represented India as its ambassador in twelve different countries. He served as Indira Gandhi’s chief of protocol in 1980, and was hounored with Padmashree Award for his services during Non-Aligned Summit and the Common Wealth Head of Government Meeting (CHOGM). He worked as Minority Committee Chairman, Vice Chancellor of Aligarh Muslim University, member of 10th Planning Commission, member of Sachar Committee and so on. Former External Affair Minister K. Natwar Singh recently compared Ansari with Late Dr Zakir Hussain.

Many times it is found that ruling party does the thing as they wish. When Kalyan Singh government passed the most controversial UP Religious Construction Bill, they never took the opinion of opposition party—SP. Thanks to then Indian President K.R Narayan who used pocket veto power and closed it permanently. Otherwise this bill would have led the sovereign, socialist, democratic and republic India towards domestic war.

The most important question is that: Who will come forward to say goodbye to this trend? For how long this draconian orthodox tradition will run the country? I think it is the responsibility of media community to highlight about it. It is also first and foremost accountability of Gen-X to compel the politicians to change their wrong attitude.

Three Wooden Crosses

A farmer and a teacher,
A hooker and a preacher,
Ridin' on a midnight bus bound for Mexico.
One's headed for vacation, one for higher education,
And two of them were searchin' for lost souls.
That driver never ever saw the stop sign.
An' eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime.
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows.
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.
That farmer left a harvest, a home and eighty acres,
The faith an' love for growin' things in his young son's heart.
An' that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children:
Did her best to give 'em all a better start. An' that preacher
whispered: "Can't you see the Promised Land?" ,
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker's hand.
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows.
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.
That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday.
As he held that blood-stained bible up, For all of us to see.
He said: "Bless the farmer, and the teacher, an' the preacher;
"Who gave this Bible to my mamma, "Who read it to me",
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, now I guess we know.
It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.
There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway.

Angel on HIGHWAY 109

A drunk man in an Oldsmobile
They said had run the light
That caused the six-car pileup
On 109 that night.
When broken bodies lay about
And blood was everywhere,
The sirens screamed out elegies,
For death was in the air.
A mother, trapped inside her car,
Was heard above the noise;
Her plaintive plea near split the air:
"Oh, God, please spare my boys!"
She fought to loose her pinned hands;
She struggled to get free,
But mangled metal held her fast
In grim captivity.
Her frightened eyes then focused
On where the back seat once had been,
But all she saw was broken glass and
Two children's seats crushed in.
Her twins were nowhere to be seen;
She did not hear them cry,
And then she prayed they'd been thrown free,
"Oh, God, don't let them die!"
Then firemen came and cut her loose,
But when they searched the back,
They found therein no little boys,
But the seat belts were intact.
They thought the woman had gone mad
And was traveling alone,
But when they turned to question her,
They discovered she was gone.
Policemen saw her running wild
And screaming above the noise
In beseeching supplication,
"Please help me find my boys!
They're four years old and wear blue shirts;
Their jeans are blue to match."
One cop spoke up, "They're in my car,
And they don't have a scratch.
They said their daddy put them there
And gave them each a cone,
Then told them both to wait for Mom
To come and take them home.
I've searched the area high and low,
But I can't find their dad.
He must have fled the scene,
I guess, and that is very bad."
The mother hugged the twins and said,
While wiping at a tear,
"He could not flee the scene, you see,
For he's been dead a year."
The cop just looked confused and asked,
"Now, how can that be true?"
The boys said, "Mommy, Daddy came
And left a kiss for you.
He told us not to worry
And that you would be all right,
And then he put us in this car with
The pretty, flashing light.
We wanted him to stay with us,
Because we miss him so,
But Mommy, he just hugged us tight
And said he had to go.
He said someday we'd understand
And told us not to fuss,
And he said to tell you, Mommy,
He's watching over us."
The mother knew without a doubt
That what they spoke was true,
For she recalled their dad's last words,
"I will watch over you."
The firemen's notes could not explain
The twisted, mangled car,
And how the three of them escaped
Without a single scar.
But on the cop's report was scribed,
In print so very fine,
An angel walked the beat tonight
On Highway 109.

Akon - Mr Lonely

Lonely im so lonely,
I have nobody,
To call my owwnnn
Im so lonely, im mr. Lonely
I have nobody,
To call my owwnnn
Im so lonely,

Yo this one here goes out to all my playas out there ya kno got to have one good girl whose always been there like ya
Kno took all the bullshit then one day she cant take it no more and decides to leave

Nothing is all i have....!! :)

As i walk into the darkness
where our love has brought us to,
I can still feel the pain that you have left me through;
the wounds that you've made,
have erased the happiness of my past

When my heart still belong's to you
and you as to mine i can hardly face the truth
that you and i do not belong
to each other's arms
but though still in my heart,
the only person living is you
the sweetness of yesterday
had changed into a bitter tomorrow

The smiles that makes me
had turned into tears that kills me
Your love has been the only treasure I owe
But now my precious treasure has been stolen
and nothing is all i have.... nothing is all I have....!!
