INDIA

Indians are very happy at check-in counters for international flight. They are so worried at check-in counters of India bound International flights . You can guess why. And if you can't guess, it means you have never been to India.

Btw, when you land at Indira Gandhi International Airport, New Delhi, there is a PICTURESQUE-MESSAGE which says- "Don't Panic. There is always a rebirth".

You know what they are trying to tell you. It means that though in this life you have returned to a living hell that is India. Don't worry. May be in your next life(Hindus believe in rebirth), you'll take birth and pray that it is not in India.

While India had a wonderful, glorious, rich and magnanimous past, the present one is castiest. Though not everyone thinks like that, but its a caste war in india all the time. Especially, beware of pandits. I can't specify their second names coz they are so many of them; But you'll meet them more often coz they are the ones holding most of the positions in beareaucracy, offices, private institutions.

Bharkha Dutt is a Feminist

I read this article Ungodly Barriers on NDTV authored by their Brand Barkha Dutt, which is soo funny. Hahahaha.. No one is against women flying combat aircrafts provided that they don't have their "periods" while flying and they are not having a back ache or a headache. We all know thats its a problem. Imagine, wartime and a woman pilot flying Sukhoi and her periods make her moods swing so much that she bombs her own country!!! or simply, may be shez not confident to fly at all. Now I'm making it more funny, but honestly, I don't think men and women are different at all. But I believe equality comes from the family. It comes from education and economic freedom. As long as women dont educate themselves and earn money to may be feed their home bound husbands, I don't think real equality will come by. Making and issue out of two unrelated incidents only serves NDTV and the Brand Barkha Dutt. It doesn't serve her fellow "behnein"(sisters)

Lets think about relation of two incidents - a Women Army officer committing suicide apparently due to dis-appointment with job and about the issue of menstrually active women being dis-allowed from praying at the Sabrimala temple in Kerela. Are these incidents related? I dont think so. And I'm no one to comment on religion and its rules. Religion is not above law and law is not above religion but if a community is ready to follow a practice, why do you want to divide them? What are you trying to achieve? May be Moksha from journalism. :)
