When tree and birds sing melodious songs

When tree and birds sing melodious songs

When Sun rays woke up you in the morning

When a tree in front of your house turned out to be true companion

When birds accompany you all around the house

When birds sing amazing songs all the times

Good morning, Good morning, good morning my friends tree and birds utter as Sun rays penetrate into room and illuminate it

Tree filled with green leaves is so astonishing as if green is true nature of life

Continues chanting by leaves while playing with slow winds produce musical notes and sing harmonious songs

While tree sometime dance when it's in tune with wind speed

While remaining static a tree is friend of much movement within and all around

While birds are much active and generating positive energy always all around

And finally birds get together and are now singing their much loved song “Freedom is what we all need” 
 “Freedom is what we all need”… 
“Freedom is what we all need”...
"Freedom is what we all need same as love"

Silent water...

By Kiran Deep

Water is calm and utter nothing as if everything is silence

Water waves presence is negligible same as the reduced visibility of moon

Moon light is also reduced much same as water waves and moon

Eyes and face of the moon light is much silent as never before as silence has engulfed everything   

Silence is killing and troubling much as never before

The only guiding angel my friend  “Moon light” is also not responding as never before

Walking silently all along the water and witnessing much troubled silence as never before

Silence all around finally led to my neurons freeze as never before

As if everything is silence today as never before

Love all

An Open letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi

By Kiran Deep

Sir,

It is utter shocking and outrageous incident of National shame that after so many years of independence two Dalit teenaged cousins were allegedly raped and then murdered by three brothers in connivance with police personnel in Badaun district of Uttar Pradesh on Tuesday. This episode has exposed the vulnerable condition of Dalits in rural areas and failure of the centrally sponsored total sanitation campaign or Normal Bharat Abhiyan to construct toilets in the rural areas and corruption is such projects. As when the incident took place the two teenage girls had gone to defecate in the nearby fields as there was no toilet in their home. There was urgent need that such incident should be dealt seriously and the trial should be conducted in speedy manners to set an example so that no one again dares to commit such crime. There should be exemplary punishment to the accused and they should be hanged to death. To much aghast, the police is meant to prevent the crime but in this case police officers also found involved in this crime. Now whom the people can trust and bank upon for help?.

Besides the state government serious responsibility to get the justice of the deceased family members and prevent such incidents, this episode of neglect also requires serious attention of the central government to empower Dalits. It is also responsibility of the central and state governments to make all the states free from open defecation.  In 2012, much gruesome incident of gang rape case has come to light, when  Nirbhaya gang raped in Delhi. The court has awarded death penalty to 4 convicts in the case. Now again this incident of UP has shocked the nation. How and when things will improve. Much amendments are made in the rape case and now I feel much more required to save the lives of Dalits and also poor girls across the country.   

There are many reasons that prompt me to write a letter to you. First and foremost  your style of functioning and Gujarat model of development as mentioned in different books. I read in a book that during the girl child education drive  it was found that the absence of separate toilets for girls is the main reason for the parents for not enrolling their girls in the primary schools and also withdrawing them, then your government had constructed  thousands of toilets across the state. And your government’s action has improved the girl child school ratio in the state. So you can understand the plight of girls. The two teenaged girls Badaun district were helpless to leave their home late at 9 pm on Tuesday in the absence of toilets in their homes and their bodies were found hanging from a tree 250 meters away from their home on Wednesday at 4 am.  Although I have not got so far chance to explore Gujarat practically, I wish I could do that too whenever I will get chance first hand account of Gujarat Model.

Secondly people has to be educate and empower politically to end such incidents. The incident took place in the state which represent maximum 80 Member of Parlaiment in Lok Sabha in the country and the state which virtually shape the politics of the country. This time, BJP 72 seats in UP  and you ( Prime Minister Narender Modi) also voted to power from Varanasi constituency  of  UP this time. The stalwart leader of BSP Kanshi Ram had worked hard in UP to unite the various castes include Dalits as he understood that political empowerment is important for Dalits for the upliftment and other backward classes. He learnt that much of area of Uttar Pardesh was  neglected and people were  in miserable state. He campaigned on cycles in UP and also across the country, later he was joined  Mayawati. Later BSP managed to become resourceful. BSP Supremo Mayawati remained the Chief Minister of UP four times even with the support of SP and BJP. In this Lok Sabha elections BSP is miserably failed to get even a single seat in UP.

People of the country have much hopes from you to end such crime against humanity and they have voted for you as never before. After a gap of 30 years a single party BJP voted to power with majority of 282 seats on its own, it is historical victory for the party. Now your government can take hard decisions to curb crime and empowerment of poor  people of the country. Otherwise from the next time in Dalits, Dalits will either go for BSP or AAP or SP which party will appear more powerful in next Lok Sabha elections.

 Third point which I wanted to make is that Badaun’s incident  is not an isolated one, many states have been witnessing such incidents on regular basis. A 14-year-old girl was allegedly raped by five youths in Chandpur village of Kanpur Dehat on the night of February 8, 2014. The girl along with her six-year-old sister had gone to defecate in the nearby fields. Like UP, Haryana too is infamous for rape of girls include Dalits.

I wish you can understand the plight of poor people who are livening in the vulnerable condition in the rural area as you have gone through tough time and even serve tea at railway station in your childhood.

The forth point which I wanted to pin point is that even after 67 years of independence the conditions of Dalits are much miserable and not much improved in rural areas. There is need to change of mind set of the people across the country include politicians. Unless the all the people irrespective of their castes get equal opportunity, it will not be possible to change the system. Dalits needs to be empowering economically and politically. There has to be equal opportunities and basic amenities for all in rural and urban areas for all the people irrespective of their castes. In the absence of overall upliftment include politically and economical empowerment, these incident could not be stopped. Things have changed much but still things are much required to be improve in the rural area as for rights of Dalits are concerned.

 Education is must to end the crime. There is urgent need of equal opportunity for all in all the sectors. All the children in country should have free and mandatory education in similar kind of syllabus and facilities. Let all the children get the same environment to grow and there should be no classification of schools.  Theoretical education is not enough for the country to make the change it has to be based on practical experience also. To much aghast in many parts of the country rape of Dalit girls or girls of poor strata still continue as those in power consider its their right to exploit the poor. Even during my visit to villages in Haryana, Punjab, Himachal, I found there is much needs to be done to provide equal status and opportunity for all.  Unless there was change in the mind set of the people, crime can not be stopped. Education will help people to understand the meaning of freedom and equal rights for all.

Fifth and last point which I wanted to highlight is that Dr Bhim Rao Ambedkar the father of Indian constitution had worked hard for upliftment of Dalits and made provision of reservation for their upliftment. However it do not yield desire lack of 100 percent commitment for the upliftment of Dalits and poor specially in rural areas. So far neither the Congress, BJP, SP and BSP nor any other party able to provide equal rights and opportunity for all. As a result the rich are becoming more rich and poor people are still struggling hard to cop  up the system. I strongly feel Dr Dr Bhim Rao Ambedkar,  was right in the sense as he understood  the importance of freedom and education. He knew that education would ultimately help the poor people to understand the meaning of freedom and also to ensure freedom for others. But does Dalits in rural areas are empowered enough economically or politically to get enough education to know about their rights or get proper education to get the benefits of reservation?.  Still things are not improved much, powerful are still exploiting the poor across the country. There is much needs to be done to uplift the poor people living in the rural areas of the country.

AAP won 4 seats in Punjab, has to be optimistic about its revolution

By Kiran Deep

AAP despite being losing all the seats in Delhi where it has best performance in the last assembly elections and also as its main leader  Arvind Kejriwal suffered a defeat, AAP has to be optimistic as it won four seats in Punjab out of 13 Lok Sabha seats. This is major victory for AAP as the party has contested first time. AAP has to be optimistic about its revolution and it has all reason to smile. The reason is that AAP has won four seats in Punjab despite the fact that the APP is the new political party and has contested Lok Sabha elections first time. When BJP had contested first time Lok Sabha elections all alone then it had won only two seats and similarly BSP in its first Lok Sabha elections had also managed won only two seats

 In addition to it, the AAP too has managed to get respectable percentage of votes share at many places. AAP has so many constraints include of finance and manpower. While BJP and Congress has good finance to led aggressive campaign and huge cadre all across the country, AAP has much resources and manpower. Now AAP has to led its revolution to concluding end as crores of people across the country and also abroad has faith on AAP. The party has to increase its cadre and also network nationwide more to hold the people’s faith. AAP is revolution and people have much hope from it as it has led campaign against corruption in the country as never before. It’s just beginning for AAP, AAP is revolution has to gain momentum, to boost his activists to change the system. Now AAP will set target for 2019 Lok Sabha elections and also concentrate on coming assembly elections. Truth always prevails.

The four candidates of AAP Bhagwant Mann won won from Sangrur, Dr Dharan Vira Gandhi from Patiala, Prof Sadhu Singh from Faridkot, Harinder Singh Khalsa from Fatehgarh Sahib. While Congress won 33 percent vote share in the elections, SAD 26 percent, AAP to manage to won respectable vote share of 24 percent in Punjab. There was anti incumbency factor against the ruling SAD-BJP alliance and people has voted in favour of AAP following its strong drive to root out corruption from the system.

BHARAT HUA MODIMAYE... BJP historical victory and Congress humiliating defeat

 By Kiran Deep

There is no iota of doubt left, it’s completely BJP’S PM candidate Narender Modi wave which led to historical victory of BJP in Lok Sabha elections. First time since its formation, BJP voted to complete majority to form government. The victory is also significant as after 1984, no single party has managed to won the clear cut majority. BJP’s last best ever performance was recorded in 1999 when it had touched 182 figure under the former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee leadership.

Modi undoubtedly emerged as stalwart national leader after winning Varanasi and Vadodara seats. Modi has won Vadodara elections with record number of highest votes polled on any constituency in General elections since independence. BJP’s move to filled Narender Modi from Varanasi also yield desire result, BJP has won record number of seats in UP and Bihar.  Gujarat’s three times Chief Minister Modi is all set to become next Prime Minister of India has to handle much tough situation to make the country economically sound and to ensure basic amenities to poor people across the nation, to control the price of basic commodities, to get the investors to boost economy.

Success of BJP is not accidental but a result of well planned strategy and hardwork. Narender Modi election’s campaign is handled similar to US president election campaign. Narender Modi elections management defeated all the parties plans include ruling Congress at centre. Congress and other parties too leveled various allegations and again raised 2002 Gujarat riots issue, but these did not yield any results.

Poor leadership in Congress engulfed by so many scams has helped BJP to attack it strongly from all fronts. For Congress defeat is much humiliating same as it had suffered in Lok Sabha elections held in 1977 after emergency. However situation is different in the sense  that this time  there was a strong anti incumbency factor against the Congress following a large number of corruption scams include 2G scam, coal gate scam, Rail gate scam, commonwealth game scam, helicopter scam, and so many other scams, rise in the price of basic commodities. Congress too lack able strong leader to tackle Modi aggressive campaign. Congress President Sonia Gandhi, Vice President Rahul Gandhi and even Priyanka late entry miserably failed to rescue Congress.

There is no replacement for hardwork, Modi addressed record rallies, break all the records on electronic, print and social media while conveying his messages, speeches and counter the rival’s attacks. His image drastically changed after he was announced BJP’s PM candidate and emerged as strong national leader. Gujarat Model of development is projected as the most successful model to achieve the success for the country and BJP has successfully conveyed its message among the masses. A large number of books on Modi’s life, his development and achievements released in the market by the different persons in the past one year. Modi campaign is planned strategically and launched aggressively to ensure Modi’s victory which eventually led to his victory and BJP’s historically victory.

Modi belongs to poor family and struggled hard to reach the top position as Chief Minister of Gujarat and now PM candidate really helped the BJP to connect with masses. Modi never hesitated to reveal that once open a time he used to sell tea at railway station and it made him hero among the poor strata. Modi projection has OBC also helped BJP to get BSP share of votes.   

In media also besides ensuring regular coverage of rallies, Interviews of Modi to different news channels and print media was given at appropriate proportion and time when it required at peak of elections. Even during the elections, Modi has defeated all his rivals and seen on all the channels and print as never before.

Congress humiliating defeat 

Congress miserably failed to reach the masses to understand their problems and adhere them during its tenure and which eventually led to miserable defeat of Congress. It’s high time for Congress to do serious introspection. People across the country are disheartened from the Congress following its inability to take strong decisions against the corrupt and to prevent corruption. Congress led UPA has virtually lost the people’s faith lack of strong leadership. Congress also failed to handle dispute with Pakistan and China strongly the way it has to be. The Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh whose good image was one of the main factor behind Congress success in 2009 elections, but proved much helpless in UPA-2 term.  

The elections results are also saving grace for many Television channels as exit polls are close to reality and not become a joke as it happened many times in the past elections. Now the stable government with complete majority expected to take strong decision in the interest of country. Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi had expected their defeat but it require serious introspection to lead the party with responsibility.

Does Ganga of Varanasi is like Irom Sharmila Chanu of Imphal ?

Will Ganga gets justice after elections results?

By Kiran Deep 

I can not think anything else about Ganga except that I am in love with her unconditionally.As Varanasi is witnessing historical elections today and people of this constituency are casting their votes, I can only find Ganga to feel the truth as soul does not know any physical barrier of distance and time.  Ganga is flowing unconditionally, blessing everyone without any discrimination.  Despite all this, it is painful to see that Ganga  is left in a much neglected state. She is seriously injured and bleeding profoundly. As I touch the water to express my affection and begins the conversation the first thing Ganga utter is “There is nothing for granted here. Neither me nor anything else in the world. People have forgotten to respect, love, and care and protect environment”.

   

 “She witnessed much promises made by the BJP, AAP and Congress leaders and much crowd during elections as never before. Leaders made promises to make me pollution free. Much political heat generated in Varanasi of UP because of BJP’s PM candidate Narendra Modi, AAP Arvind Kejriwal are contesting from here and campaigned heavily. Rahul Gandi too came here to campaign for Congress candidate Ajay Rai” Ganga said while reminding me that the results of these elections which is virtually like   Mahabharata  fight will be historical, but things for her  will change when there is overall change in the system in the country.

While narrating her tale of woes Ganga said it requires revolution in the country to change the system so that people can feel that rivers and all natural resources are very important for them and to protect these and make clean, safer is their outmost responsibility as they care for their beloved once. You cannot disassociate from rivers and natural resources. You have to love and feel the rivers and water as river loves you all unconditionally.

“System is paralysed. Corruption has damaged everything badly there is no counting of scams … Sharada Chit Fund scam, 2G Spectrum Scam, Coalgate Scam, CWG Scam,  Helicopter Scam and so many others. In his book “Revolution 2020”  Chetan Bhagat,  has also highlighted the Ganga treatment scam in its own way while narrating the story of love, struggle and corruption. There are so many scams related to Ganga clean projects also. Hundreds of crores has been spend and what has happened so far? Ganga questioned.

To much aghast Ganga said that the pollution is continue to be released into Gang in various places and unscientific and illegal mining still continue in different places. Corruption is now in the blood, neurons and DNA of many people and it will require serious approach to change the system, Ganga said while revealing painful experience that while people enjoy here Aarti, mystical music and all serenity, but now she cannot feel the same anymore.

While seems to be much perturbed and disturbed with state and central government insensitive and lackluster attitude Ganga rued that   Swami Nigamananda of Matri Sadan undertook a fast unto death demanding an end to illegal sand mining in the Ganga in 2011, at least in Haridwar but both the Uttarakhand government  and at the Centre government had  paid no attention.  As a result, swami died after fasting for 115 days.

All sudden I noticed tears rolled down her eyes, before I can hug or console her, Ganga   revealed more horror reality adding that she is dying slowly and cannot breath properly. She cannot flow naturally. She cannot feel naturally. She has been raped continuously by mining mafia for digging out sand and stone for so many years. She is bleeding profoundly and no one is here to cure her wound. “People come here to get rid of their sins and also for blessing and pursuit for truth and she wish that every visitor here at least took pledge to save river and natural resources for betterment of humanity.

After this Ganga raised question that does she would get justice after Lok Sabha elections results, as she sometime feel like anti-Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act crusader Irom Sharmila Chanu of Imphal who has been fighting to get justice for around 13 and half years.  Demanding repeal of the military Act, Sharmila has been on a fast since November, 2000 and is currently being forced-fed in the security ward of Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences (JNIMS), in Imphal.

At last Ganga said nature is supreme and no one would be spare who has caused damage to it and will cause. In Uttarakhand, no one cared for environment protection and everyone know what had happened there. Floods in Uttarakhand had caused massive destruction and even God abode “Kedarnath Temple” is not spared.

 “It’s better that Human will understand to respect and lover the rivers and environment. Otherwise nature is powerful enough to make the system clean in its own way as it did in Uttarakhand” Ganga finally advised and left. I could not say anything as I too believe that nature is supreme and has enough power to make the system clean.

It’s high time, put Dawood Ibrahim behind bars...

 To end terror, blasts and drug menace in India

By Kiran Deep

It’s cruel joke to expect from Pakistan to admit that under world don Dawood Ibrahim is staying in Pakistan and they will hand over him to India. India does not have to make request anymore because things have gone much beyond the point.

                                  

                                            (source of photograph... Google)

 The masterminds of one of the most heinous act of terror the 1993 Mumbai blasts in which 257 people died and 713 were injured and also involved in 26/11 Mumbai attacks is still at large,  in safe havens. The nation had also witnessed Parliament attack and also other blasts which linked to Pakistan based terrorist organisations and ISI.  

Blasts in India has become regular affair and it’s high time to take stringent action and to frame strong genuine policy to end the terror,  blasts and all those who are behind it.

So only way India can get Dawood Ibrahim who is designated as global terrorist back in India for prosecution is by taking strong action. Or following strong action strategy as US so brazenly did in Osama bin Laden case. Yes, there has to be cordial relationship between the two countries for their progress and maintaining peace. But how can one expect peace in such charged environment where Pakistan has crossed all the barriers and have no respect for Principles and moral values.

I can still recall a dialogue from hindi movie Don “ Don ka intezar to gyarah mulkon ki police kar rahi hain, lekin ek baat samajh lo, Don ko pakadna mushkil hi nahin, naamumkin hain”  Don is wanted by the police of eleven nations, but understand one thing, catching Don is not just difficult, it's impossible”. Don and remake of Don is not only the movies there are number of movies of bollywood where Dagwood the underworld don is projected as super hero. Dawood links and funding in bollywood is no secret. Same as the bollywood, Dawood believed to have reasonable links with the politicians in India and he also funds their elections.  

It’s time when people of country are eagerly waiting for May 16 for Lok Sabha elections results so that they would have powerful and stable government which could take decisions. People have all the reason as the corruption has deteriorated the system, people at many places do not have proper basic amenities such as food, water, education, proper place to live and unemployment even after so many years of Independence. And for many this election is just like another freedom struggle to get Independence.

Now People of the country also waiting for strong government which can also put an end to terror and also put behind bar all terrorists. The central government has to powerful to maintain the democracy and to protect Sovereignty of the country. Dawood issue has again came to limelight after BJP’s PM candidate Narendra Modi recently said that the government should do more and speak less when it comes to capturing terrorists like the underworld don Dawood Ibrahim while criticising the Home Ministry Sushil Kumar Shinde.  

Once Dawood Ibrahim offer to surrender

S Hussain Zaidi the author of Dongri to Dubai in his book said that Dawood too wanted to surrender after sometime of 1993 blasts with conditions.” Apart from the charges in the 1993 blasts case, he wanted all previous charges against him to be dropped. Additionally for the duration of the blasts case, he was to be kept under house arrest and not in a jail. If these conditions were accepted, he added that he would surrender. Dawood offer had sent ripples across India and created uproar in Parliament and Mantralaya in Mumbai”.

But there was fear  among a few  politicians of Maharashtra that if Dawood came back to India then he would reveal so many shady deals and many people include politicians would be exposed.

  S Hussain Zaidi further said in his book that particular lobby was up in arms about the conditions laid down by Dawood as part of his surrender. They told Noted advocate Ram Jethmalani who was consulted by Dawood for surrender that Dawood would not be allowed to dictate terms and still welcome to surrender and would be given a fair trial. However non of his conditions would be complied with, the government said.

Dawood’s drug network and threat to democracy

In addition to terrorist’s activities, Dawood believed to have been running thousands of crore drug racket in many countries include India and reports suggest that he too has tentacles in region to help him in this trade in India. Drugs are being smuggled from Afghanistan and Pakistan through Rajasthan border which eventually supplied in Punjab and Haryana. Drugs consumption in Punjab has increased manifold and it’s need of the hour to end this drug menace.

Although all the political parties during their poll campaign had highlighted the issue of drug menace vigorously, however it required strong intervention of the Central government with well coordination of the state governments to stop drug menace in Punjab, Haryana, and Rajasthan and also in Himachal. Punjab is worst sufferer of drug terror among the states of Northern India.  It requires strong political of all political parties to end the drug menace in Punjab. Recently the Punjab police had busted a drug racket gang and seized drugs over six thousands crore from accused possessions. Even the main accused has named the minister of ruling party and other influential people in the drug trade. However how can fair investigation expected from the state police expected  when their own minister and other influential alleged to be involved. Later drugs issue has rocked in the Punjab like anything with allegation and counter allegations. The  allegations were denied by all the influential named in the drug racket. The  fair investigation is not expected in the absence of independent probe by the central agencies. 

There is also urgent need the central government ensure that all our agencies include Narcotic Control Bureau, Border Security Forces, CBI and ED should have proper infrastructure, facilities and manpower to end this drug menace and terror. It also requires well coordination between central and state governments.  In addition to it,  state governments too have to have strong will power to provide the best facilities to end the drug menace and save the lives of youths. Massive seizure of the drugs during Lok Sabha election’s campaign in Punjab and Haryana has highlighted the urgent need to root out the drugs menace in Punjab and Haryana.
