The rage is rampant

The citizens of Mumbai, and many other cities, thronged the streets at several places across India on Dec 3, 2008, to show their displeasure with the entire system, and above all the Politicians. They gathered to protest against the way they are being ruled, protected [if at you feel so], and however paradoxical it may sound - protest against being killed. Here are a few things they had to say

• Mr. Deshmukh
  Don't play a Joker,
  Remember you are our Naukar
  
• "DESH-MUKH" - a film by RGV!!
  Starring You know who!!
  
• Dear Chief Minister
  Instead of taking RGV to Taj,
  You should have shown RGV's Aag to them,
  They would have surrendered peacefully
  
• a-chute-a-nandan (Kerala CM) - a Dog himself
  
• We would prefer a dog visit our house than a politician
  
• Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi
  Donkey, donkey, old and gray
  Open your mouth and gently bray,
  Lift your ears and blow your horn,
  To wake the world this sleepy morn
  
• Missing - Raj Thakery
  
• Hi Raj,
  So how much does your Audi cost?
  STOP fooling my maharashtrian brothers and sisters,
  and mind you own 'business'
  
• I am an Indian, and there is only one 'sena' that i believe in;
  and that is - THE INDIAN ARMY
  
• US politicians from Yale, ours from Jail
  
• Dogs and politicians not allowed in this rally
  
• Raj Thakery's bandhs,
  R.R.Patil's chotie baatein,
  Naqvi's Lipstick and powder,
  Deshmukh's terror tourism,
  A Chauthanandan's Dogs
  NAHI CHALTA HAI
  
• India needs Leaders, not Dealers
  
• Bangles - A token to leaders of India from the Citizens of Mumbai
  
• A = Attack Pak/ISI
  T = Talk less
  S = Sleep in peace
  
• 3 enemies
  * Politicians
  * Terrorists
  * Dawood
  
• Call back the bar-girls, may be they can help!!
  
• Gandhigiri gave us 1947, now it's time to grab AK-47
  

But what resulted was a Ban on all such rallies!!

Fascism??

Kudos to the men in uniform

Once again, after the long forgotten Kargil war, I feel like my degree in engineering, my proficiency with software development....are of no use; no use because I can do nothing but crib about what is happening in Mumbai; no use because I can do nothing but sit in front of the TV and watch the terrorists carry out their meticulously planned heinous acts; no use because I can nothing to save even a single innocent life from being slaughtered so mercilessly; no use because I am not there when my country needs me.

Also, I could go on to hate myself for being selfish and greedy to an extent that I didn’t listen to the voice from within...the voice which pepped me to join the services right after I completed preliminary education. But the lust for the green and dreams of Uncle Sam's land made me ignore the call....I wonder if I’ll ever forgive myself for that.

BUT, I find solace in the fact that there are these brave men who did hear the voice billowing in their heart, those who fought for the pride of their nation, those who showed the world that 9/11 is not something India will ever witness, those who painted a sorry figure of all those politicians who claimed to be working for the 'navnirman' of the country. KUDOS to you guys....you my heroes, you my idols, you the ones I want everyone in this country to be like, you the ones I would want my kids to be like. KUDOS to you guys....it’s because of you I am able to write this today, it’s because of you I feel safe in my house, it’s because of you I can still quote my nationality as INDIAN.
