Perpetually Perplexed

Let us just remember what names will these people call each other for providing entertainment to the public. And let us remind these names   when they form an un-holy alliance to form the government. Some more entertaining news in this front are Election commission officials caught former UP chief minister Mayawati carrying 1 lakh rupees as she landed in Gulbarga. But she asked whether they would have checked Sonia Gandhi or Sushma Swaraj. They are of course discriminating against a dalit. Of course, the oppressed classes need reservation and concession in everything. In Karwar, the ever canny candidates sent Biryani, gift wrapped, to the houses instead of money. Smart move! Modi says that 2G scam money if written will go from 7, race course road to 10 Janpath marg.  BJP government in Karnataka created world record in corruption says Rahul Gandhi What can we say? Best reality show ever!!

The song from "Sapnay" goes as Chanda re chanda re kabhi to zameen par aa Baithenge baatein karenge Tujhko aate idhar laaj aaye agar Odh ke aaja tu baadal ghane

Poverty? Inflation? Who is telling you all this? In fact, Indians are getting richer day by day. At least some Indians are? According to today's newspaper, Karnataka MLAs' assets have increased many fold some times as high as by 5000%. Why am I telling you all this? Do you want to become richer, without working hard? Stand for an election and win a seat. But  initially you may have to convince people that you care for them. This is easy. Follow the path of other aspiring member of LA. Distribute sarees, panches, liquor and hard cash freely among people.

ಪ್ರಜಾ ಪ್ರಭುತ್ವವೆಂದರೆ ಪ್ರಜೆಗಳಿಂದ ಪ್ರಜೆಗಳಿಗಾಗಿ ಪ್ರಜೆಗಳು ನಡೆಸುವ ಸರಕಾರ ಎಂದು ನಾವೆಲ್ಲಾ ಕನ್ನಡ ಶಾಲೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕಲಿತಿದ್ದೆವು. ಈಗ ಅದೆಲ್ಲ old school. ಪ್ರಜಾ ಪ್ರಭುತ್ವದ ಹೊಸ ಪರಿಭಾಷೆಯೆಂದರೆ ಬ್ರಷ್ಟರಿಂದ ಆಯ್ಕೆಯಾಗಿ ಬ್ರಷ್ಟರಿಗಾಗಿ ಬ್ರಷ್ಟರು ನಡೆಸುವ ಸರಕಾರವೇ ಪ್ರಜಾ ಪ್ರಭುತ್ವ ಅಥವಾ ಬ್ರಷ್ಟ ಪ್ರಭುತ್ವ  Cliches aside, I saw in today's newspaper that chief election officer has stated that taking money for vote is an offense. But what about buying vote? Is it not an offense?   We citizens will supply them with names of candidates who are giving money. Will the honorable government  punish the politicians who are giving money for their votes? Or will the election commission cancel their candidature for this election?

I tried searching for inspiration using stumbleupon , but not closing blogger window. That is real optimism. But inspiration does not work that way. OK. Let me post some thing from my old note book. ನವಜಾತ ಶಿಶುವ ಹೊಳೆಗೆಸೆದ  ಅಮ್ಮ ನೂ ಅಪ್ಪನೂ ಆಗಿ ಸಾಕಿದ ತಂದೆಯೂ ತನ್ನಷ್ಟೇ ಎತ್ತರದ ಮಗನೆದುರು ಪ್ರೇಮ ರೋಗವೆಂದು ಅಳಲಿದಾಗ ಏನು ಮಾಡಬೇಕಿತ್ತು ಈ ದೇವವ್ರತ ಭೀಷ್ಮನಾಗದೇ ? ತೊಟ್ಟ  ಭೀಷ್ಮ  ಶಪಥವ  ಹೊಗಳಿದಾಗ ಎದೆಯುಬ್ಬಿತ್ತು  ಇಂತಹ   ತ್ಯಾಗಿ  ಮನೋ ನಿಗ್ರಹಿ  ಇರಬಲ್ಲರೆ ?  ಅರಿಯದ   ಮುಗುದ  ಮಕ್ಕಳ  - ಅಪ್ಪನ  ಮಕ್ಕಳ ಸಾಕಿ  ಸಲಹಿದೆ  ರಾಜ ಕುವರಿಯರ ಗೆದ್ದು  ತಂದು  ಅವರ  ಮದುವೆಯ  ಮಾಡಿದೇ   ಫಲ ಅಂಬೆಯ ಶಾಪ    ಇಂದು  ಅವರ  ಮೊಮ್ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಒಬ್ಬರನ್ನೊಬ್ಬರು  ಕೊಲ್ಲಲು  ಹೊರಟಾಗ ಕಣ್ಣೀರು  ಹೊರಬಾರದು  ಬಾರದಿರದು  ಇವರ ಪ್ರಶ್ನಿಸಲು ನಾನಿವರ ಅಜ್ಜನೆ? ಅಲ್ಲ, ಇವರು ನನ್ನ   ಸಂತಾನವಲ್ಲ. ಅಖಿಲ ಜೀವ  ಜನ್ತುಗಳೆಲ್ಲ  ಸಂತಾನಕ್ಕಾಗಿಯೇ  ಬದುಕಿ    ಸಾಯುವಾಗ ಯಾವ ಸಾರ್ಥಕತೆಗೆ ಈ ಪ್ರತಿಜ್ಞೆ...

One more bomb blast in Bangalore. Luckily there were no casualties. When will this mindless terrorism stop? Why are terrorists born? They are born because, they are taught to love and believe whatever their leaders tell them without thinking, without asking questions. They are taught to hate "other" people. They are taught that if they die protecting their religion they die a martyr's death and very nice things wait for them in the other world. So I feel in order to curb this menace, we need to find these leaders and ask them some questions. Or better still, we should prepare our youth to ask these questions. Disciple : Sir is it true that our God has created this world. Is it true? Leader : Yes, of course. He has created this world and also all the living creatures in them. Di :So our God has created all human beings. Is it? Le : Yes. Certainly. Di : Including people of that other religion? Le : Yes. He has created every living thing in this world, all birds, a...
