Break, Voting and Laa Yaar for Kaas Ab

I hope to be regular now on the blogs world. The break is over and I m back to the normal grinding work which would continue max till the month end. I desperately needed the break and I had it, one day extended. I went home and as usual suffered with upset tummy. So no eating outs at the famous joints of my home town. Laptop heating problem still persists and the "me-time" still exists in the thoughts. A lot of things to be done starting with the hair cut, laundry (dhobi press karega kapdo ko, but wo alasi hai, mujhe bike par laad ke jana padega uski dukan par), washing machine round, bills and of course blog reading. 455 posts to be read still. Wonder how I would catch the backlog.

Right now I m frozen totally with 30 hours of travel in VOLVO. My usual preferred bus is off for time being, so I had to travel in a cramped sleeper seat of HANS and get frozen in AC and lack of space made me go frozen in the upper seat. How bad.

Its elections time. And I am gonna vote for 5^th time in the Lok Sabha elections, 8^th time in all. I first voted when I was few months short of 18. I haven't missed a single LS elections, though I missed the assembly elections of 03 and 08. I have been a fan of Rajiv Gandhi. I remember how shocked I was when I heard of his assassination 18 years back. So for few years I voted for his party, but then I realized that was futile. Vote bank politics and so called secularism is the one major factor for the sudden rise in terrorism country witnessed in 2008. Third Front is crap and the leaders no less than jokers. So the only option is the one you also guessed right. Imagine what would happen if Mayawati becomes PM or Karat becomes PM. Oodi baba.

On Smritz;s blog there was a debate on whether Kasab should get a lawyer or not. In my view he should not. What would lady lawyer do? Justify Kasab's killings? And wont she feel shame for that? Wont her inner conscience eat her up? She is supporting a criminal who has waged war against country? Even before the SS came in fray, she should have not gone ahead and took the case. Trial in India is a joke and it would take years to finish off the trial in lowest court. You can imagine the timings then that would need for high court and then supreme court. Who is going to pay for those trial? We or government or the leaders who have assets worth crores? Its gonna be the taxpayer's money. I know how hard do I need to work and slog to get the money I make every month end and pay some thousand bucks to the govt as tax to end up spending on a Pakistani terrorist? Cmon guys he is a terrorist and why should he get the fair trial? Are we the only country in world supposed to be soft? Look at SL, they have wiped out terrorists out of their homeland almost. One 9/11 led to war in Afghanistan and WMD led to war in Iraq. Israel is a glaring example how to survive despite surrounded by hostile neigbhours. And look at India. 7/11, 26/11, 08 bombings in Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Bangalore, Delhi !! What happened? Just verbal wars. We know where the problem lies. So whats stopping us? Simple answer.

Lack of will power and lack of iron fists. What do we do? We give him a lawyer. So what message goes? Come to India, kill 200s of people, get caught, get a lawyer, get a trial, hang in for years and then somebody would either hijack the plane to get you released or would keep you stuffed in the bureaucratic procedures before going to gallows(Afzal Guru). Vote bank politics. Pseudo secularism. Lacs of bullets must be pumped to Kasab to give a meek message now to the world that we wont like being messed up with. Verbal wars wont help. Increase the security, think about the common man. Just placing a slogan wont help. Counter attacking Mr Advani on Parliament attack wont help. Why tolerate Kasab? Extract all information out of him and let go. I mean shoot him in a way worse than those extremists behead people in Middle East....

Alright lot of jingoism here. That's it for now. Time for some blog reading……..One more thing. Do vote. To bring a change, do vote. Remember those who dont vote, they dont have right to cry foul or curse the system. Only way you could change the things around you is to vote. I am going to vote. Against terrorism, against corruption and against jingoism. Chose liberation, choose freedom.....
