My India ?

My India?.. A country that till 18 months ago, was blessed with perfect communal harmony, the country that enjoyed an absolute freedom of expression, the country that had not banned a single book, movie or play.  No one had heard of the word 'caste' in my India and the word 'religion' either. There was no hunger, nor there was poverty. All the farmers were billionaires so no one ever committed suicide. It was a wonderful country where people could eat as much beef they wanted, anywhere they wanted. There were no laws banning cow slaughter in any state. No one had heard of words like corruption, murders and rape.  Communal violence and riots were unheard of. The years 1947 and 1984 skipped India, therefore there were no such things as partition riots and anti-Sikh riots. The year 2002 however did happen in a terrible place called Gujarat, the single stain on the spotless secular fabric of India! Kashmiri Pandits lived in the valley in peace and harmony with their neig

Open letter to Amitbhai Shah regarding grievances in the minds of BJP Well wishers and Karyakartas

Open letter to Shri Amitbhai Shah, Respected Sir, My name is Dayanand Nene. I am from Mumbai and have been associated with the party since 25 years. Prior to that I was associated with the Vidyarthi Parishad in Mumbai. Shri Vinay Sahasrabuddhe, Shri Shyam Jaju and many others know me as I had the privilege of working with them. At the outset, l am sorry if you feel offended for me writing to you directly. But as a party activist and well wisher, I felt the need that some one should communicate to you the pent up feelings in the minds of all karyakartas regarding the current political situation in the country. And hence decided to write to you directly. Sir, why did the party lose so badly in Bihar ? Explanations may be many. Excuses may be even more. But there is a general feeling that we lost because of our arrogance, disconnect with the Karyakartas & well wishers. Too much preference on appearance on TV, social media & advertisements - so much that instead of working on the

#BiharResults शिवसेनेचा संजय राऊत : दगाबाज की दळभद्री...? आज समस्त हिंदुत्ववादी आणि राष्ट्रवादी जनता कमालीची हळहळली असता मर्द वाघ म्हणवून घेणाऱ्या सेनेतील एका शिलेदाराचे वक्तव्य अतिशय संतापजनक आहे. भाजप/मोदीविरोधा पोटी अंध झालेली सेना, केंद्र आणि राज्यात सत्तेत सहभागी असल्याचे भान पूर्णपणे विसरल्याचे दिसते. अशा बेभान अवस्थेत सेना संपली तर आश्चर्य वाटू नये. अशांना मित्र म्हणावे काय ? आनंदाच्या बेहोशीत नितिशकुमारांना आलिंगन तेवढे बाकी वाटले. ही सेक्युलर मंडळी सेनेला हुंगतही नाही. धुर्तान्च्या गळी बळेच पडण्याचा हा फाजील प्रकार आहे. विकृत बुद्धिवाद्यांचा वैचारीक दहशतवाद सुरू असता, हे नेभळट कसचा डोमल्याचा "सामना" करणार आहेत ? म्हणे... स्वा.सावरकरांना भारतरत्न द्या.... अरे कपाळकरंटयांनो ग. वा. बेहरेंचे ते जुने साप्ताहिक "सोबत" जरा चाळा. हिंदुत्व म्हणजे काय असते हे जरा समजेल.  आम्हाला तर आणिबाणीतील संघर्षाचे ते दिवस आठवतात. पण... दिल्लीहून आलेल्या मॅडमच्या एका फोनवर काळ्याकुट्ट आपातकालचे सेनेकडून चक्क समर्थन झाले होते. बिहार हारल्याच्या दुःखापेक्षा संजय राऊतच्या वक्तव्याच
