ఆఫ్రికాలో దసరా Panduga




నేను ఉద్యోగ మారటం వలన ఉగాండా వచ్చాను. నేను ఇక్కడ కంపాలా లో ఉంటాను. ఈ దసరా మూడు రోజులుగా మా ఏరియా లో బాగా సందడిగా ఉంది. మాకు ఒక వైపు ఇండియన్ అసోసియేషన్, ఇంకొకవైపు పతిదర్ సమాజ్ ఉన్నాయి. ఇండియన్ అసోసియేషన్ లో బెంగాలివారు దుర్గామాత విగ్రహం పెట్టి చాల వైభవంగా దసరా జరుపుతున్నారు. అలాగే పతిదర్ సమాజ్ లో గుజరాతి వారి గర్భ జరుగుతోంది. ఇండియన్ అసోసియేషన్ లో పెట్ట్టిన దుర్గామాత ఫోటో క్రింద ఇస్తున్నాను.

Anna Hazare’s Janlokpal Bill – Are we looking at Orwellian type of society?

India is in frenzy for the last 10 days with the anti-corruption rhetoric of Mr Anna Hazare. This is similar to the one witnessed sometime back over the issue of bringing back the black money from Swiss banks. The black money issue was first coined by Bharatiya Janata Party and later taken up by Mr Anna Hazare and Mr Ramdev Baba apart from sundry others. What we are witnessing now is not dissimilar to the earlier issue. Anti-corruption rhetoric is not new either in India or abroad. It was Mr Jawaharlal Nehru, the first prime minister of India who declared that a corrupt person should be hanged from the nearest lamp post around 100 years ago. We are yet to see a single hanging. It was taken up by the successive prime ministers but nothing has happened. In fact, all the governments starting from the first government post-independence have seen some scandal or other. The lamentable fact is nothing has happened in any of these cases be it the Jeeps scandal (of the first government) of th...

Sumathi Satakam - Lessons for Modern Management

“Erakumi Kasugayala Durakumi bandhujanula doshamu summi Parakumi ranamuna Meerakumi guruvunagna medina Sumathi”   The English translation is something like this Do not collect unripe fruits Do not point out errors of relatives Do not run away from battle Do not go above the order given by your teacher   This is a simple poem taught to the young students in Andhra giving them four important principles in life.   The first line asks the students not to collect unripe fruits when collecting the fruits for immediate consumption. Many types of unripe fruits taste different from the ripe one. For example a ripe mango tastes totally different from a raw mango. By collecting the unripe fruits one will be wasting the resources as they may not be useful and may be thrown away.   The second line talks about not pointing out the errors of relatives as this will alienate them. By alienating the relatives we may not be able to expec...

Let Us Celebrate Justice for Celebrities - II

Within days from the suspension of sentence of Mr Salman Khan, we witnessing one more controversial thing - Acquittal of J Jayalalitha, former Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. This happened on appeal in a case where she was sentenced after 18 years of hearings in various courts (some of them were regular in Tamil Nadu itself and some special courts either constituted by Tamil Nadu Government or Supreme Court). The case is about assets disproportionate to the income of Jayalalitha and her associates (Sashikala, her son and some companies) by an amount of around Rs 66 Crores. In current days of where people talk about hundreds of Crores of rupees as loose change, the amount stated looks like a pittance. But remember around 18-20 years back this is a substantial amount. Even the much celebrated Bofors case involves a total amount of Rs 130 - 160 Crores only. A display of personal adoration which characterizes Tamil politics. In this picture people are pouring milk on the wall painting...
