Strikeworks
On the face of it all over the world people call in to protest and people willing supporting the cause do wht they are suppose to do weather it be buring tyres or shutting shops simple!!!!!!
This is India baby things have to be different but u have to marvel at how every thing comes together like clock work at such a short notice and yet with this skill we can complete other projects on time.
It all start with the haaala gulla of one of the parties roaring ooooooooooooo asteeeeeeeeee we can no longer take it .Tommorrow the f**kin state shuts down just becs i like to to seee it that way.
All the news channels are more than happy to oblige show time ehhhhh by 8PM
The next day 8AM team of tugs with the local goons spring up from nowhere .Each of them drunk with the free packet supplied by the area corporator (if he is from the ruling party that is ).Ohh the tugs they come up from no where becs until yesterday u would have spotted them skulking around near Nair's tea shop with some free fags.....
They come down meaning 25 of them and this day they are the bosses , barge into the establishment free will and say shut the doors and co -operate we will come back to check after an hour if its still open then lets say ur roof goes up all while u are trying to get ur face of the stinking breath and fine coating on Gutka directed towards u
Well well these groups makes sure they camp on the end of that road close to a tea shop with puffing those free cigrattees not BD courtesy days collection for a job well done.
This happens only in InDIA
Well wonder if we could get them on community watch program wouldn't the crime rate come down !!!!!!!!!!!

Burn la Tera y cool the lifestyle
The Talk of the town or infact the whole world has been oriented towards carbon emissions and how the developing world is showing no regard to the term pollution proceeding towards development.
Development as they (developed countries) say should be a responsible one.
ok Senor point accepted although people have been a bit irresponsible when letting their business touch the sky but lets look at whts been done and whts continually done without realizing how it might contribute to our good being.
Lets take a Country such as India or even china which are on the reciving end of the argument.
Is this because the latter uses more bicycles inspite of the innumerable thermal power plants.
- Electric scotters are a plenty,Convienent and cheap
- Travel by trains are subsidised hence cheap
AS Suppose to the big daddy were
- Average family owns more than one car
- Gas guzzlers are cool
- There is more packaging in the food than the eatable itself
- Airtravel is the preferred mode of transport
- Eating fancy ready to eat meals are quiet the norm
Recycling as been a recent cool term in the west .They get those fancy recycling bins upon recyclng bottles they get tax cuts which are monitered by a uber cool and Enviro pro council offices paying big salaries to a lot more people for this job
The same scenario in a devloping country has a slight twist .We dont know this as the term recycling nor do we recieve any candies from the tax man .All we know is a cycle man comes down to our place collects all the recyclables such as plastics,glass,papers even old telephones pays the money according to the wieght leaves to the main plant to resells it again .This is a business opportunity in the east where as in the west u need govt incentives ,tax cuts ,carbon footprints etc etc.
Now u can tell me the Developed world .What rights have you got to curb our devlopment !!! rather you have shed money from your pockets to bring in Renewable energy revolution in this part than just saying do it while u guzzle away the oil deposits.

Forgive forgiving ourselves
The long silence has been due to various reasons
- No more second looks at the immigrations
- No more dirty looks just becs a brown guy is checking into Raddisions
- No more i will just be back while i scan your passport please requests
The next time i came back from Brazil where i saw superb road network, smooth flowing traffic. Wait a minute its a developing country just like India but then i told myself yes this is a developing but rich country in terms of natural resources and population explosion is unheard term in this part of the world.
I looked at China , Its very similar to India in terms of problems faced. OK, i give in its a communist country blah blah but when a project is started its finished at an acceptable time yes there is corruption and everything but yet there is development there is to see.
But here this is wht I see
when u walk on the roads of Bend-kal-Uru all i see is empty barricaded sections with no work what so ever going on with boards saying courtesy NAMMA METRO
GO
SLOW
MEN AT WORK
Plans are made according to the corporater and the some one else wims and fancies .Muti storey car parks are still not a reality , Parks, lakes and other public places are open urinals
Ok i have been a bit of a cynic but I like Bangalore and want a Bangalore i grew up in .Were trees were plentiful ,rains were pleasant ,people were caring and some child going in and open drain was a story heard in fiction novels.Worse still his body not being found after a massive search was unheard
I openly agree everybody including me is guilty to the same degree. Our swalpi adjust maadi and hoogle bidreee mentality has to be shot out we need to stand up at least maintain some CLEANUU SENSEUUU in Public places on our part and then turn our eyes on to the authority.
Remember Govt is always a representative of our behavior weather we like them or not.

Landing gears and Flu tests
After this blog I have traveled to some far off lands but will post about these later
Now let me tell u some news- “I moved back to my motherland”
The land I was born an brought up in .Let me tell u now the intricacies of living in a developed European country coming to this unfinished world and the changes u start to see
This post contains a series of incidents (any mention of people and place are always real and in no case factious so go look for them)
Landed in the airport where we were all handed over some forms to get clear of SWINE FLU. All but about 100 passengers where not given these forms and we were told to wait for just 5 mins .This five minutes I should have known to be much longer so I should have just dropped my back pack and slept but NO
I waited like a
These Docs where dressed obviously in White with a Green mask resembled those fake bollywood doctors with masks who come out after the Operation in the movie and saying “Ab sab kuch oske haat me hai “(Now everything is in god’s hands)
It was no different here either .To get cleared you where are asked just 3 Questions
Do u have cold?
No
How about Fever?
No
So do u have F#@@ cough then?
No
Hurray u are clear of swine flu
Then on the my own countries immigration the guy asked me if I had tampered my passport .After a lengthy explanation I was let out
Viola I was in my land after just a slight delay of 3 hrs.
And my countrymen’s explanation to this Swine flu incident was that I was too Europeanized and these doctors are so talented that they spot Swine flu just by looking
