And now in the name of Maharashtra and Hinduism

Politics and religion, both were invented to teach a civil society some rules and control the animal instinct of human being. Now it seems both are trying to bring out that animal instinct. Last month it was so called "Jihad" terrorism. Now its Raj Thakre "Marathi" terrorism. http://www.bbc.co.uk/hindi/regionalnews/story/2008/03/080306_kishan_hands.shtml. Follow the link. MNS activist in Pune, chopped off hands of a street vendor selling roasted grams. And again it was poor man who was victimized. These bastard politicians, they can go up to any lowest level to get votes. Whatever happened 2 days back when MNS activist charged lathis on Railway recruitment examinees in Mumbai is a sheer example of another form of terrorism. This time its regional terrorism. Something like what happened in ASSAM by ULFA or by terrorist in Hindu villages in Kashmir. When ULFA and Laskare Taiyba is considered a terrorist organization then why not MNS should be banned? Why Maharashtra govt is doing so much thinking in doing this? The courts, High Court of Maharashtra or Supreme Court, cant they take suo moto cognizance and put a ban on this organization. For the sake of someone political goals, common man whether he is from UP or Bihar or Maharashtra can be tortured like this. We have to stand for it. Government and Judiciary are selected and appointed for taking care of such problems only. We pay our hard earned Tax money so that we can sleep tight without any fear. I put this question on PM email also and request Mr Prime Minister to look in this at personal level. Being a Congress Govt in Maharashtra, he should have direct control on this.
The same story is repeated in Orrissa and Karnataka. Few terrorist organizations like Bajrang Dal and VHP, are killing innocent people. They are worse than those who put bombs in busy streets. Atleast these terrorist dont see who got hurt. Here these so called Hindu terrorist rape young kids and nuns and burn them alive. They are worst psychopaths who enjoys pain and torture. They are like mad dogs who must be killed for smooth functioning of society. I pledge all my friends and fellow citizen to condemn these atrocities anywhere happening and be vocal about them. Hate those who support them. Spread awareness because these few leaders run there rein of fear based on fear psychology of common man. Once they know that people dont fear them and hate them, it will stop.

Free Heart Surgery for children


Why in the name of Allah?

Last Saturday, it was Delhi's turn. We all witnessed an act of shear frustration and coward ness. And that too in the name of "Almighty God". As the e-mail sent to various news channels suggest. These so called "Jihad's" or warriors for religion profess themselves as real Muslims and they attack Delhi because its capital of a "Hindutva" country India. All Delhites, specially people living in Karol Bagh and CP and GK, belong to VHP and Bajrang dal and these Freedom fighters wanted to take revenge from them.

Now coming to the victims. A family of poor people from Haryana, lost all their bread winners. These poor people were selling old cloths used for cleaning engines in Auto Market in Karol bagh. Another poor guy, who was studying Chartered Accountant, from remote city in UP. He lost his one eye. Another poor rickshaw puller Kasim and Farooq, both lost their lives. He has left Kashmir, because of the violence to live(or die) peacefully in Delhi.

I ask this question to all the Jihads and people having sympathy to their cause. What these innocent people has done to them or their religion. None of them have ant relation to VHP or Bajrang Dal. All of them were serving all religions with equal pride and affection. Then why they?

Just because they are easy prays. These cowards jihads, who boast themselves in name of Allah, don't have even that much guts to face the real culprits. I would have no complaints if they have targeted Narendra Modi or Pravin Togadia or Babu Bajrangi. But these so called jihads are such kind of criminals, I don't know how they face themselves in mirror leave aside facing Allah. Its something like, some Pehalwan hit you hard. You were helpless. Out of sheer frustration, you get hold of next weak person and start getting your frustration out on him. And over that claim that you doing it for religion and Allah. Will Allah boast such acts of cowardice. Even in Koran, which came on earth in this holy month of Ramdhan, its strictly mentioned, Don't kill children and women. Fight when you are attacked.

If these so called Jihads or Indian Mujahidins, for me they are un-organized criminals who are psychologically disturbed. They have some grudges and frustrations and they are taking it out by planting bombs on innocent people, places sneakily. Warriors don't act in hideouts or nights. They have guts to challenge enemy and face them. I spit on the face of these worms, cynical people, someone like that psycho killer who kills innocent people in darkness of night, without any fault of victims. He kills just because he is mentally sick. He enjoys it.

I request all of my friends, enemies, family, non family to take good care of themselves. Keep an open eye and foil any bid by such criminals to disturb peace of our country. For such un-organized criminals, police cant reach everywhere. Its we as citizens has to help ourselves.

A "cheap" alternative to AUTO in Delhi

As Delhi is progressing and we are seeing new means of transportation joining day by day. Started with radio Taxis, then low floor buses and now A/C low floor buses. Still Radio Taxis are in great demand as they give you safe medium of commutation, though at a higher cost. Today I saw a new Radio Taxi, Quick Cab. They are charging half the rate i.e 7.5 Rs/ KM whereas normal Radio taxi charges 15 Rs/KM. I called them up to confirm and they told me that at the moment they operate only in Delhi, No Noida/Ghaziabad ;-(. There are no hidden charges, 7.5 Rs/Km flat with 50 Rs/Hr waiting charges. You can try them in Delhi.

Consumer Rights : What can be done

So if you are reading this, most probably you or your dear ones are facing some harassment from the shop keeper/service provider. In my family, recently a baby was born. We bought a pram for him and after that a nightmare started with its different parts started falling apart. The shop keeper tried to help initially and we cooperated but when the fix also failed, we wanted our money back. The shop keeper refused. We returned the pram to shop and asked her to keep the money and pram both.
Same night, I logged in to http://core.nic.in. I filed my complaint giving all details of the shop and product and problem. I didn't knew if it will help or not. Next day, I got a call from shopkeeper and she called us to collect our full money "cheque". I don't know why cheque(we paid in cash). If it's a effect of my compliant or the divine intervention we cursed her a lot). You can also try it.
Another channel I have used to log consumer complaint in past is TV Channel CNBC TV "Awaaz". They have a program named PAHREDAR. I had some issues with Airtel Billing and the thing was pending for 3-4 months. I mailed all details at pehredar@moneycontrol.com. The automated reply came same day. Next day I got call from Airtel and everything sorted out same day. My friend tried it and he even got offer to come to studios to detail his problem. Anyway his problem was solved. You can also give a TRY.

Finally e-Passport in India

As I was discussing with some of my friends, e-passport is going to be launched in India soon. Here is the press release from Ministry of external Affairs. dt 25/6/2008. http://meaindia.nic.in/speech/2008/06/25ss02.htm . The new passport will carry a chip inside which will hold our information and can be read by a sensor just like a smart card. It is supposed to be full roll-out(what does that mean?) by Sep 2009(my passport expires then). So before re-newing our passports, should we wait for this or go ahead with old passports.Its a big question and only urgency will decide the answer.

If you are brand conscious but pocket limits you for buying just one shirt or top, then dont worry. I tell you a shop where you get second top just free, or may be you buy 2 shirts and get 4 free. And this discount is not season based or clearance. You dont have to wait for July or Feb to buy in bulk. You can move in any time and choose from 120 leading brands under one roof and that too from guarantee that everything is genuine nothing fake, as this "Brand Factory" is run by our very own "Future Group" of Big Bazaar fame.
Now too much of good things..Let me take you to the place. The name of shop is BRAND FACTORY. Its located in Ghaziabaad near Ansal Plaza. If you go from Noida, go on NH 24 from Fortis hospital side and take a Left on NH24. After crossing Sharda Canal, you get a T-Point where a road goes for Mohan Nagar towards Right. There take a right turn and immediately after turning on right side you see AEZ Mall. This mall houses BRAND FACTORY and a FUN CINEMA along with Big Bazaar.
If you are coming from Delhi side, on NH24 after the flyover of Ghazipur and before sharda canal, take left on this Mohan Nagar T Point and you see this AEZ Mall. If coming from Mohan Nagar, its behind Ansal Plaza which is on main road.
For your ease I also give you google map of this place. Really nice, all brands ranging from Tommy Hilfiger, VH, Levi, Lee, D&G, Arrow Docker Adidas, puma, Nike etc there at discount price.
