N for North East Indian Composer



North East Indian states are with unique culture when compared to main stream India.Now let me introduce a singer,musician,lyricist and rock band artist Michel S Sailo belonged to North east state called Mizoram.And he was died in a bike accident on last Friday.Why it was so with North East people popular in terms of Music,sports and cool living style.Due to their external features,most of common people of rest of the country mimicked them with a few teasing names.

But in reality,North Eastern states are far better in many things such as environment cleanliness,good manners,dressing,education and so on.Hills density somewhat hindered physical facilities.One must be agreed on it. Yet tourism is picking up these days and it should be done with fast pace.Here is a song for you all which sang by the couple of Michel Sailo.Let his soul rest in peace.

Beef Woes



Last friday in the district of Bhupala Pally of Telangana, a news came up with enough of controversy in terms of Beef and wild boar consumption.The news maker was none other than its district collector Mr.Akunuri Murali ,while addressing a gathering of TB awareness program he called ordinary people to consume non veg whatever possible to have without any inhibitions.He also told them that veg oriented meals is not nutritious comparatively with beef and others.And it was a conspiracy of Brahminacal forces to make people week especially down trodden ones.

Forest department does not oppose when while boars hunted,so make use of it along with beef eating.Some tribals who attended there were also admitted that they were strong enough when used the beef and wild animals in their diet.The news naturally enraged certain sections to submit a memorandum to initiate stringent action against him.Today's papers carried a news that state government has asked him to give answer in the respect.

The weaker sections are also taking their side to support the collector in the issue.It's really a testing time for the state government in which side to be favor .However in a day or two,result will come out.Rants and raves began from both sides to moot the subject further.After bifurcation Telangana state comparatively remained cool in terms of administration.There is  hardly any surge from opposition blocks.Let's see how it would  get turned in course of time.

Who said words wouldn't save lives....?

Experience is ultimate in one's life.Maybe read volumes of science or social related books.Assimilated to the core in addition.Had heard every sweet talk that soothes every pore in the body.Sometimes what we thought of mere superstition could help us like no other thing rescued us.Then the human being utterly get obedient to that spirit whatever the rest of the world commented over it.Why ..? my experience proved it,my life had that touch and remained as it and no other force or word made up my mind and body as well.That could be nothing to you but everything for my life.

Because when life goes,you or your so called prudent words or self development quotes or psychological reasonings could not save me.But only one sentence as the last resort ,rejuvenated my spirits to this day.Yes.Once upon a time,I was in a deep depression.In fact,after all severe thinking and intellectual analysis,no way myself reached to be.Each corner looked devilish.My friends,relatives and others counselled me in different ways.No.No use.There was the same vacuum.Same feel.Same dejectedness.

It was like nothing.No prior experience to tackle it.Of course,all human efforts completed.Was on the edge of  life,Last moment.Last decision.At that moment,One of my relatives handed me a book titled "AnushTana Vedantamu" ( Practical Vedanta) authored by Swami Vivekananda,at the outset or entered through flipping the book,my eyes saw a prominent sentence i.e., "Worn out than rust out" , with enthusiasm I read all that substance and trust me.That substance rekindled my life.Gathered my strength both in mind and body.Yes,I should die in doing some work than dieng in secret not withstanding my agony,I decided then.Yes,it never discouraged till now ,in addition more strength gathering in me.

This happened some decades back.Almost a twenty years.Still going with indomitable happiness.And no other thing provided me the same thing.I visited Belur math and meditated on the land where Swami Vivekananda did his.Now when I thought of it,how bubble like the life is,an inner voice keeps telling me.But a  real Guru in real time comes into your life.That's what I can tell you now,whatever you thought of me,sorry,I just don't care as I know what happened in me is my only experience that only installed me to live my life as it is.

Why political corruption not a big issue for people..?




In our country, everybody seems to hate corruption.Go through any paper,we can see the news regarding it.Employees of various departments,be it of central government or state government.The accused officers were being interrogated by ACB or other ones for amassing disproportionate  assets were seen in the newspapers.I note it keenly,all the assets recovered or found could have been hardly some 5 or 6 crores of rupees and a little bit higher in some cases.Of course it could be of some thousands or hundreds ironically.Bribe is bribe,crime is crime irrespective of amount whether it is big or small.That's fair.It should be done without mercy.They have to be crushed and condemned.

It's not my problem.A big doubt ,always dogged me.Why this activism not performed against political people,they could be of any party.People know their corruption .Everybody discusses openly in the hotels,centers and other places.Why no one go to ACB or any other to complain it..?You don't have to go anywhere else,just  see persons around your place,one political activist starts his life with barely  hand to mouth,once he got elected as corporator simply he spins lakhs of rupees in a couple of years.sometimes crores.No doubt.Once he becomes MLA, within 5 years of time,he earns hundreds of crores.

What to say about ministers and Chief Ministers ..? Some thousands of crores are their earning evidently seen in various forms Properties in the name of benamies.Even people afraid of them to complain against them though they knew it very well.Sometimes opposition party try to fix them in the part of political game,all these will be loosen when deals set right in favour.Both big parties need each other.They have power alternately.So safe game is played for their ends.

See late Jayalalitha,who was being praised by people with many great names amassed the gold,wealth and other properties in large quantity,whose is this,the common people's.But people have kindness to forgive it.Sasikala now became the caretaker of all those assets by God's play.This is only one incident,come to others,take Chandrababu Naidu,he possessed only two acres of land when he entered the politics,go and ask any bypasser in Andhra,you will be awe to know the worth of his assets in India and aabroad.Jagan too no exception.Worse to all is they have chain of medias to make their propaganda.

Not only down south,go to any state in North,situation is the same.political corruption is growing leaps and bounds.People also tolerating it as a common issue,not seen as a serious one.Corruption worth small amounts are highlighted and getting jailed occasionally.But political corruption worth larger sums neglected.Even in case jailed,happily come out from jails and courts to enjoy the plundered money.And their sons and daughters get powered with this colossal amount of money to ridicule the spirit of democracy.

G for George Orwell

This time , choosing George Orwell for the letter G, he was mostly known for his work of Animal Farm.A Novella completely different from usual human characters to be filled in.There were animals in a farm of Mr.Jones.They got fortunately wisdom on par with humans and decided to strike against all two leg beings.The leader was a pig called Old Majar,he gave inspiring lectures to get freedom from the human master.His offshoot became next leaders for the farm animals.

At last, human master was defeated by the united force of  the animals.Reigns went now into the hands of pig duo.After having power,the pig brothers started to establish their own muscle ,in which the pig Napolean remained victorious ,then the real form of the animal leader came out.He behaved like a dictator not only that, established good relation with neighboring human masters.That Napolean distanced from animals to transform into a real human,That's irony.

This book treated as a comment on the happenings of world wars.Animals had been taken to display the true nature of power and selfish goals.Power makes everybody tyrannic and head strong,no animals and no humans to exempt from this game.George  Orwell portrayed well whatever the character had been selected to say the worldly affairs in lighter vein.Animals point of view towards humans was almost correct but they unfortunately were blessed with inferior wisdom.

Ernest Hemingway

This time liked to choose Ernest Hemingway for letter E. I have read his novella the old man and the sea recently.Heard much about, but having gone through, it was altogether different.The American writer received the characters from his life experience.Santiago ,the old man by the work a fisherman,living his life as it comes to him. but his grit and decisive spirit displayed when things demanded.Ernest Hemingway set the story in Cuban landscape.The boy accompanied to the old man ,of course,in a few scenes backed up in keeping the story intact,especially first and last pages were very interesting.The boy seemed to be,age wise, his grand kid yet behaved like a friend.

After getting into the sea , the old man kept transacting with flying birds,sardines and other creatures,it was just like talking to every creature he encountered.His steadiness  was appreciable even though when losing his captured fish to the sharks.He thought of olden days wherein his physical strength inspired to his present condition,it's interesting knowing his obsession with small fish.He used to chew them in the sea,when he felt hunger.Ambiance on the terrace,baits,lines,other fishing related jargon were well observed by the writer.Style was simple to understand,But there was some beauty in his tale telling.

With minimum of characters,the book has some innovative spirit.Glorious concept has been taken to uphold the human effort,central theme can be summed up so.Everything about it was simple and intriguing.The fish would become a friend first and lost its life in fighting.Even sharks made things further worse.By the time getting to the shore,no meat was there and the fish became useless.That makes us sad,because his toiling went unfulfilled.Yet he never gives up by thinking his next destination at African lions field.

Adivasis voiced against Chellppa Commission



Adivasi leaders of Telengana state condemned the establishment of Chellappa Commission,which is bound to review the status of Khaiti Lambadas and other castes to take into the list of Scheduled Tribes.If it gets happen,Adivasi people benefits completely hijacked by newer entrants and it will further worsen the condition,the real Tribal people who are still in the dark remote corners of forests without education and development will be as they are though the constitution has provided adequate reservation.Do you know the amazing news that already came to light but to be understood to its depths without any bias.

By enlisting Banjaras or Lambadas in to S.T. Category in 1976,ghastly blow happened to remaining tribes  like Koya,Komdareddis,Nayakpod and Gonds etc.Why..? The forward nature of the Banjaras made them winners in every competition,be it political front,financial position or any reserved job,top to bottom ,they have occupied every coveted post.And Adivasis naturally can not compete with them because they have no solid backing of financial or political clout.

To  make it further worse,now in the name of Chellappa commission,some other forward communities are moving pawns.This sends alarming bells and movement snowballing to oppose the ongoing design to excruciate the Adivasis, on last month 30, there was  a meeting held at Bhadrachalam in the name of Gondwana sangarshan parishat.A huge gathering and procession was witnessed with concerned demands.Activists likeSonde Veerayya,Kurasam Rama rao and Adivasi teachers ,other employees along with remaining sympathizers participated,and a chalo Delhi program chalked out in the coming may month to high light the issue at national level.

Special Status Agitation and results



"Jalli kattu"   issue made ripples in the history of civil movement.Especially after independence,this sort of united spirit of fighting has never been seen.Marina beach and Chennai came up again for a substantial reason.Even Apex court loosens its hold over the matter,in democracy,people are the prime concern.Proved once again,maybe there are various opinions, that's a different thing.Do you know one more thing on the same occasion..?With the success of Marina beach agitation,In Andhra too, a surge swept in the form of special status agitation which has  been promised by the central government when bifurcation had taken place and not fulfilled for different reasons.

On 26th of this month,people from various sections tried to protest on the same reason ,at the beach of Visakha patnam.First,it seemed as non political as Jallikattu but failed to invoke that spirit unfortunately.Telangana born actor Sampoornesh babu supported in person and was arrested.Pawan kalyan,Jagan etc., made it to turn political action,so  naturally ruling party has taken it seriously in crushing the agitation.Even TDP promised people in the time of elections to get special status from the center and remained calm due to its bonhomie with central government.

Ruling TDP party of AP crushed the agitation with police power deployed at Visakha area.Thus the so called Jalli kattu inspired agitation put out at its initial moments.All this seemed to prove AP does not have spirits to fight for a cause that benefits the entire state.Caste based politics almost bring the fate of  the state to its worst limit.Telangana is not so happy with its own kind of turbulence.Districts made triple to its original number of early days.No sufficient officers till now to move the administration at its comfort.

Yadavs vs Brahmins in Telugu States



Don't go along that there was a big fight between Yadavs and Brahmins yet, politically and socially no chance for that in the Telugu speaking states.But one discourse delivered by spiritual speaker, Mr.Chaganti Koteswara Rao made ripples in Telugu folks.Apparently ChaganTi belonged to a Telugu Brahmin caste and he made obvious derogatory remarks that Sri Krishna had born in the Yadava community  who do not know how to clean their bodies properly,exactly the remarks flared up Yadavs in Telugu states. Contemplation started to make police complaints against Chaganti.And he came to compromise on the subject.

Many organizations of the community came forward  to condemn the outrageous comments.Facebook staged for both communities to support their own stands.For Telugu readers it has become an entertainment topic.Of course, so many days after, a topic to elevate to gain mileage for their own ends.All this happened a couple of days back and the topic remains open for all ,still now.In fact.both in Telugu states,Andhra and Telangana ,we can not see much say of Brhamins but all the political and financial domination rests with Shudra castes like Kammas,Reddys and Velamas.

Remaining are at second fiddle in all matters.But each caste has its own consciousness to stand by when they matter in a particular situation,That's why a lot of hullabaloo scattered all over,Social media,blogs all those fill up with their own lots of opinions.Particularly Telugu society heated up with the matter.Though Chaganti featured in youtube placating  Yadav caste leaders ,the ordinary folk remain as anger as they were before.In fact,Chaganti, is an employee of the Central government (FCI) and keep delivering lectures in the name of Sanatana dharma. Is not sign of devoid of his own secular dharma..?!! Being an employee of the government , should he deserve delivering lectures like this..?

Now this is the principal question rounding all over in the both states..!!!

"Story of Tublu" novel review

I used to read Jahid Akhtar's blog for a long time and enjoyed his selective write-up each time.Surely he has a skill to make his reader for a quite while on his blog.Such an interesting weaving of a perspective into an exciting read.Perhaps it compels him to tell a tale in detail.That's right ,he heard his call in time.Without some dashing spirit,how could you show your own mettle in the track..?I firstly appreciate the author Jahid Akthar for his candid and spectacular view of life,that's too down to earth.No doubt, all the story poured like a streamline in emotion and with right precisions. That's why when the reader starts reading ,he never thought of giving it up on any excuse.That means he perfected himself in telling a story in his own right.Definitely,he will be having a good future on the line.

Well, let's come to the story,It starts in a remote place of Assam and scaled many places of India and abroad.It was having all emotions like childhood memories,getting a victory against the odds,Having the childhood sweetheart at last and this is all about the story in a nutshell.But the author tried his best to maintain grip over the story with many twists and suspense sequences.Here and there you will get some hot scenes in the novels ,especially college days of hero Tublu and Maina..the heroine.

We understand the humane of Sharmas to welcome the destitute and flood hit Tuvalu family and how the latter encourages the Father and son as their own one  and how they got bondage with them and gave back their  emotional return for Sharmas turned a tale and surging gratitude.It seems now and then backfired with unnecessary words and scenes.But by coming to an end, The suspense and racy style haunt you like anything,yet, The writer needs something in addition that was well known to him.
