Looking Back & A New Beginning.

Hi

New Year is here! Bringing new hopes and dreams. Strike that one more year in your life that has gone wasted with you doing nothing. Strike out one more year from the calender that brings you little more close to your death. Anyway who the hell cares about what is going to happen?

I am here to list down How the year went on for me. And I pray the coming year will be even more adventous for all of us.

Hmmm … So here are things to remember in 2008.(This is not in the right order. except first 2 points.)

1. Darshan Sri Guru Grant Sahib ji de. The original Hand written. 

2. Being part of 300 Saal Guru De Naal Divas.

3. Two of my best friends got married. Sumit and Ashwin.

4. Banglore trip for Ashwin’s Marriage. Drinking in train and escaping from cops.

5. Non Stop drinking Sessions.Was Drunk almost everyday in first half of the year. Until Ashwin’s Marriage. Stopped somewhere around June!

6. My One Night Stand. (This is not what you think. Believe me. People who know me. Will know what I am talking about.)

7. Introduced to Family Guy. This serial changed my life. I had another reason to live. ha ha… 

8. Amrit marriage was fixed. And Sonu’s Marriage was fixed.(This year have lot of marriages to attend.)

9. Manjinder Paji’s Marriage. Had Awesome time there.

10. Made worst decision to buy something. That put me in big Credit Crunch.(Advice of one of my Cunning friend who cheated me at the end.)

11. First time bought something beautiful. MY COMPUTER!!!

12. Understood that everyone who calls them my friend are not really my friends.

13. Leaving my second home in Hostel, Room No.40. (This room will be remembered forever. There will be legends written on this room.)

14. My Nephew called me “Mama ji” and remembers me.

15. Tracked down one of my friends whom I met in Shooting Competation. Amazing. I love what techonology can do.

16. Started Writing Blog Not to forget that. ha ha…

17. Was part of a successful project for which I got certificate from VP. (I dont think anything Exceptional was achived though.)

18. Part of amazing team right now in new project. Learning a lot everyday.

22. Nuclear deal was signed off. I am sure it would be helpful for our shortage of power. But dont know what wrong things will it bring with it.

23. Amarnath Land problem. Saw A State divided due to political agenda behind it.

24. So Many Bomb Blasts. So many People killed. Delhi, Jaipur, Hyderabad, Gujrat, North Eastern States, Mumbai. Each bomb blast just poisoned my soul a bit more. I started hating our Neighbours more. I dont know what will happen if the threshold of this hate is crossed.

25. Mumbai Blast took away fun out of this country. No Celebration after that. No Christmas. No New Year!

26. Global Meltdown. We saw inflation going to 12 and falling to 6.5. We saw stock Market rise to 21,000 and then Hit 8000.

28. This year brought IPL. Nice entertainment. Super fun. At the begining I had a big confussion whom to support. I am a Punjabi So do I support Kings XI Punjab ? Or I was born in Bengal. So do I support Kolkota Knights? I studied my entire life in Tamil Nadu. So do I support Chennai Super Kings ? Or I work in Hyderabad so Do I support Hyderabad Deccan Chargers? Or I support Mumbai Indians cause Sachin is there. Finally I decided to support Mumbai Indians cause Sachin is there. And Kings XI Punjab because I am a Punjabi.

29. India’s Win against Austrilia both in at home and away.

30. India’s First Gold Metal in Olympics.

31. Mission Chandryan. Brining India in Top ranking and raising start in World.

32. American Election. World never followed an American election so closely. America made History when first African-American was elected as President of USA. I love his speech “Yes We Can.” India need inspirational leaders like him.

33. Started Helping a small Girl from Pune for her Education. Her Name is Shubhangi, 5 years old. Hope she does well and I am able to help more people. (Always wanted to help some girl child in her Education. This is the first thing I did in my list of 100 things to do before I Die.)

Thats all I can think of right now. Will pitch in when every I think there is something missing.

Hope this year goes great for everyone.

Understanding Islam

Hi 

I know this is going to be one of the most sensitive issue that I have ever touched in my blog. But even than I am going to ask some of my personal doubts. Anyone reading this blog please understand that I have no personal grudge what so ever. I am just a normal guy trying to understand the feeling of people. Please dont think I am going to relate Islam with terrorism too. I know Terrorist does not have any religion. I dont want to hurt anyone sentiments. I just want to understand a faith better. Thats all. Please help me in achiving that.

We all know lately Islam and Muslim has been related to terrorism. Which I think totally ill-logical and wrong.

I have some questions about Islam that I would like to make it clear. Please understand that I am not against Islam. For me Islam is jut another religion like Hinduism that everyone follow. I just want to understand it better. If anyone have answer to these set of Questions please answer them and help me understand Islam better.

1. Lately I have been commenting on one blog site. It was talking something about Salman Bowing down to a Ganesh Ji’s Ideol. So My first question will begin with that.

What does Islam think of other religions ?

2. Can we bow down to give respect to other religion symbols. (I am asking this. Cause I bow down to every Temple, Mosque,Church or Gurdwara. Though I follow only Sikhism. I think every place is holy. And I must respect it. I have gone to Many temples. Our Family gives Chadar(Cloth) to the Darga everytime. I have been in Christmas Choire. Though I follow only Sikhism. I try to be part of all. I dont think Sikhism think this is wrong. All I see is God Everywhere. Fatwa was issued on Salman because he bowed down To Lord Ganesh statue. )

3. I have heard Muslims are not allowed to sing ”Wande Ma Dharam”  Song because it seems praising Hindu God. Is this ture ? I am not sure if what I am saying is right. But just as a doubt and an Indian want to know . Are their some Muslim who think singing National Anthem is anti-Islam ? I know some who would not sing.

4. What would you Identify yourself as ? An Indian First, then a Muslim or A Muslim First then an Indian. I am asking so cause I am a strict Follower of Bhargat Singh. Who gave up his religion for his Country. And the same Blood runs in my veins. I would give up anything for my Country. My Family. My Religion. anything. What is Common Indian Muslim Believe.(Please understand that I am not questioning our faith towards your country. I am just asking the priority  thats all.)

5. What is Jihad Actually. What I read and Learnt is Jitad is Fight against one self. Fight Against what ever wrong we do. And to pureify ourselves. Please explain me what Jihad is in Islam.

6. Lastly I would like to know is :”Who is Kafir ?” What does Islam say about Kafirs? Anyone who doesnot believe in Islam is Kafir ? Does it say if we kill a Kafir we get heaven ? 

7. Also heard that one who kills or dies in Jihad gets Heaven and something about 72 Virgins. I dont think this is true. But just asking cause I see this a lot in western Videoes and Media.

8. I have seen a movie called “In the Name of God” or “Khuda Ke Liye” Its a Pakistani Movie. It tells about Music and entertainment in Islam. Is Music, Acting and Drama wrong according to Islam ? What do you think about this? I dont think Islam says that Music is Anti- Islam.(We have some of the best Sufi singers here in India and in Pakistan.)

9. I know about terrorism. Sikhs were related to it in 90s and hunted down in every town in India. Why is that there is no terrorism or terrorist in Punjab now? Why people keep becoming Terrorist in name of 1991 Babir Masid Demolision or Bombay Roits or Gujrat Roits ? Why is that Terrorism was wiped out of Punjab and It still exist in Kashmir? I dont know why ?

Please answer my these questions. I dont want to offend anyone. Once again. I just want to understand the Faith Better. Please help me in this.

Mumbai Meri Jaan : The City Of Dreams III

Hi

I had been following Mumbai Investigation and Progress very closely like everyone here. I had previously writen 2 blogs about the progress of Mumbai Attack(Link1 and Link2). The City and people are throwing out right emotions. People want actions rather than politicaians using this for their personal Votes!

There has been interesting Reactions accross borders too. You would laugh like hell if you some of these videos. Its amazing how people come up with such beautiful stories. I know people are fools but they surely should not go on proving it. Let me start with How they started to fool around with America and got F*&^ed instead.

Hope you remember when War was going on in Afganistan. America said the Taliban and Al-Quaida is in Pakistan Borders. What was the first reaction? No there is no terrorist operating in Pakistan Soil and all bullshit. When after sometime they got all the proff. And America stuck up in their …. They finally aggreed Yes! There might be some terrorist in hiding in some villages. As some village heads were sentimental towards them. I understand cause they are of your own. After sometime you realize all the planning and work is going on in Islamabad. This is when Lal Mazid stuff happened. Who the hell has that many Guns and Ammunation in a Mazid? Everyone prepared to take on Pakistan Army? What the hell ? How did they get in there ? How did so many Guns and Ammunation were there ? Did no one notice all this happening in Capital of their country? Come on! I know there were some boom blast in Delhi too. Its not that the terrorist were trained in Delhi!!! How come you have then in Your Capital ?

I know No one would agree if such things happen. Anyway. Here are some of the videos for good laughter! I am sure you would enjoy them. Link1 and Link2

Here is another AMAZING Link proving the involvement of Certain Group in Pakistan.

Hope you enjoyed that one. Here is the latest update from our side.

MUMBAI REACTS

We all expected Mumbai to be normal the very next day. It was wrong of us and wrong of me too. We just cannot forget whats going around us. If today it was my neighbour tomorrow it can be me! There were processions and peace march every where around the city. I really liked what people came up to say. Politicians does not deserve Z- plus Security. The Citizen of this country does.

OBAMA INDIA HAS RIGHT TO PROTECT ITSELF

Rightly said Mr.Obama. India does have rights to protect itself. And its high time that Politicians realize that too. We must not allow any of our Neighbours to plot attacks against us. There has been news lately that Terrorists are even being trined in Bangladesh. Didn’t we give freedom to that country. And now they come back and try to F&^% around with us? The best solution to this is Attack the terrorist camps where we think they are. If anyone question us. We can say it wasn’t us. Give us proff. If they give us proof then we will say again it wasn’t us. Simple after 6 months no one will remember. Simple Easy Solution.

PRANAB MUKARJEE TALK TOUGH

Finally there was someone who talked something. It felt atleast little better when Pranab Mukarjee told that we are not ruling out miltary action agaist Terrorist Camps accross Border. It would be even more better if we attacked. Put words to Action.

PAKISTAN MEDIA REACTION

Most of the pakistan media’s reaction is that India planned this attack on themselves! Some said the terrorist caught is a Sikh! I know there was terrorism in Punjab. I dont think there is anything like that now. We are Indians and would not do anything against our Country. And hopefully you all already checked out the links above. 

BOLLYWOOD, CRICKET WORLD RECATIONS

Hope you all heard this story. This country has never honoured its real heroes. You saw what Kerala Chief Minester told about Major Unnikrishnan when his father did not allow him to enter his house. I am 100% sure he came  here just for Publicity. Which I am sure he got. He told not even Dog will go to his funeral ? How come such a cheap remark come? That to for a person who died doing duty for this country? Major Unnikrishnan died protecting his own men and trying to rescue people from TAJ and this is what a Chief Minister has to say ? Does any Chief Minister has his son in Army protecting his country ? NO!

When India won T20 World Cup I know it was great. I loved every moment of it but when I see kind of money given to Cricketers and kind of money Army and Defence get it makes me sick to my stomach! What do we think are criketers greater than these men who fought for us? Is that the message we are sending? If govenment want its people to join Defence they better start working on it. They wasted our money on Cricketers. But did not pay these NSG Police and Army people enough. Hope we start thinking that our Tax money is in better hands.

Our IPL cheif and BCCI is worried about how are they going to make money. How things are going to change after this rather than thinking about the security of people. All they think about is Money thats all. Once Taj was captured back. They started planning on their schedules. I know we have to think beyond this and not let terrorist control our living. But you must have feeling for people of Mumbai too. Who have just come out of such a terible truma.

Entertainment world like us I would say started writing blogs. I dont write for media to read it. Its more like expressing my feeling to people around. But I dont think its same with Actors. I saw news people talk about Amithab’s Blog instead of listening to reaction of common people. Celebrities does  not come in common people they are not! I knew there would be reaction in media world with some of people asking Pakistani Actors and performers to leave India. In some News Channel I saw Abjeet asking Pakistani Performers to leave our country. Come on its not they who planned the attack. It was just a publicity Stunt by him. Probably some great singers from our neighbouring country cost him his singing Job. Though if there is any connection that they are supporting then they must be thrown out of our country.(Pakistanis – See We are not too negative people. We just hate your policies of supporting terrorist to attack us. Or trying to claim Kashmir which is Our State. Other than that you are allowed to come here show your talent. I do agree there are some great singers from Pakistan who make a lot of money here.)

INDIAN MUSLIM PEACE MARCH.

Indian Muslims showing the way to the world that what every Al-Quida or any terrorist orgainsation doing in the name of Islam is wrong. I feel that Muslims in our country are one of the most true followers of Islam. They dont try to prech hate against west. They try to live in harmony. Though there are some misleaded people. But I have a feeling that there are people misleaded every where. The reaction not to bury the terrorist bodies in Indian Soil was like a music to my ears I tell you. Islam does not peach hate and killing of innocent people. No religion does! Hopefully people accross borders try to go in their foot step.

PAKISTAN CRACK DOWN ON LeT

Finally Pakistan is reacting! There has been reports that all the training centres of LeT is in Armies Control. Hopefully it stays like this. LeT Chief is arrested. That is another good news. Its good that they have reacted to this. I always believed if you dig a hole for others to fall into, sooner or later you are going to fall into it. They should react fast to growing terrorist in Pakistan or it is going to end up like Palastain and Somalia. I pray it does not happen to them like that. It would create bigger problem to us and them.

Mumbai Meri Jaan : The City Of Dreams II

Hi,

This blog is concern with previous blog that I wrote on Mumbai. If you did not read the previous blog here is the link. This blog will concentrate on the latest develpment in the Mumbai Attack on 26th November.

To start with I let me tell you about my habit. When ever there is something like this. Attack or Terrorist activity I tend to read prospective of all the parties. Mostly Pakistans. And what I read today made me laugh and angry at the same time. I read an article about Mumbai attack. I will tell you what I said. Here is the link for you.

If you read it. It says that cook of the Cafe told BBC wrote something about people drunk and started fighting. I searched entire BBC. Did not find any such link. I got one link. this is what it had to say! Here is the BBC link. If you want you can read entire BBC coverage on Mumbai Attack here. 

If you want to read more funny things they write on their website read about India’s win on Austerlia. I dont remember which website It was. But this is what It wrote. I said that BCCI and India paid to Austerlia to lose the matches agaist India. This is what they write! I laughed like hell for this too.

The news website say that people where there in Cafe drinking and they started killing people. Because they were drinking and if they were muslims they will not drink. So my first point is that. Who the F*&^ told you that they dont drink? I know many people who drink.

Then I dont understand what they mean to say they where drinking then they started fighting and then went to Taj and Oberoi-Trident Hotel. Are they fools? To fight then kill 200 people then go to Taj and then take people hostage. Are you kidding me? If Indian Army train people why would they kill Indians ? It would be good if we send them to Border or send them to Pakistan. Why would we kill our people and then blame you? Instead we would just kill Pakistani people. That is quite simple. Please get that right! (People of Pakistan I am not against anyone of you personally. But If you support such a theory. You must be kidding me.)

Talking about terrorist. First you said you did not train anyone then you told they might be terrorist in Pakistan soil. And now you give shelter to Osama Bin Laden. I understand that its hard when people around the world blame you its hard. But Facts are Facts. You cannot hide them. 

Entire world know terrorism was born and brought up in Pakistan. Though intially USA sponsored it to throw Russia away from Afganistan. 

PAKISTAN’s TAKE ON MUMBAI ATTACK.

Pakistan’s theory about Mumbai Attack is that Al-Quida is behind this attack. And they want to separate India and Pakistan peace process. And they say al-Qaeda militants have done this cause they want Pakistan Army to go to Indian Border. I dont know if this might be right or not. I dont think they have so much Brains to think like this.

I HAVE NO REGETS!

Next thing I read was about the captured Terrorist told that he had no regrets! No Regrets! That MF dont have heart. Event after killing so many people he does not have any regret. Damn I tell you people like these must be hung in public. Cut them into pieces and thrown to Dogs. No why Indian Dogs also must have such meat. Dogs sure deserves better. I pray that No NGO comes to his support those F*&êrs always come for people like this.

INDIAN MUSLIMS “WE WOUNT BURY BODY OF TERRORISTS “.

Hats off to all our people. Indian Muslims are right. Terrorist do not have religion and must not be buried on Indian Soil. I have no words for them. Even after dicremation from some sect of people they stand up for Our Country India. I love this. This goes for every terrorist you will not have any good Cremation here in Indian Soil!!! God Bless India.

More of news and update will follow on this topic. I salute NSG, India Navy, Indian Army and Mumbai Police. My prayer are there behind all the people died in this attack and who lost their life in such meaningless violence.

Mumbai Meri Jaan : The City Of Dreams

Hi

Mumbai Meri Jaan! Mumabi my heart bleeds and cry with you.

Mumbai has been centre of India’s development,Politics,Entertainment, Sports & terrorism, more than a decade now. It has come under lot of threats lately. Some questioning its Identity as being part of Maharashtra. Mumbai is more than what Raj Takre claims to it to be or want it to be. Mumbai belongs to India. It belongs to people who have dreams and Passion to exel in their life. People who want to give way to progress and prosparity. People with big dreams come to Mumbai.(Like everyone else even I want to ask Where the F*&$ is Raj Thakre now. When Mumbai is burning. Is he hiding behind is wife ? What does he say now when Army, Navy and NSG where people from all parts of country are their to save Mumbai. Does Army only allows Maharahtrians to fight this fight ?)

Mumbai has grown stronger everyday when every their is any boom blast except the one time in 1992 serial blast and the riots which started after that. Mumbai does not have a religion. Mumbai by itself is a religion. A year back when I see the Train boom blast and how everyone helped fellow people. Where religion Caste Politics does not matter to them. It is this spirit that is tested every now and then by terrorist. Mumbai will raise again. And fight all the injustice and come up as Winners. They will refuse to bow down to terrorism, next day they will get up to a new beginning. Go to their work. Try to live the normal life. This is Mumbai. And it is this sprite of Mumbai that I salute to.

On 26/11 we saw yet another injustice to people of Mumbai by Government. Government let down this sprite of Mumbai. Tested its soul that fights this terrorism every day. Intelligence failing yet again. Government again slow in response. Shivraj Patil starting his same old record. I don’t think government realise the magnitude of this operation. This was high class perfect Attack that Terrorist could have managed. 

Terrorist know they are going to die. They just came here to talk to TV Channels, kill maximum people, and create a sense of fear. They knew every thing and how things are going to go for them. From what I read in Newspapers and New Websites this is what I can sum to.

1. Terrorist were very well trained. No simple people can carry operation of this magnitude. The Way the handled sophisticated weapons like AK-47 and they way they threw grenades, We have to agree they were very well commandos themselves.

2. Who every planned this operation got right people of the job. Young Energetic and Violent Youth. Who will do anything without fear. (Problem with present youth is that they put religion before their country. That is what has been happening every-time. I think its high time that parents teach their kids service towards their motherland than being influenced by some people. Lesson of Humanity and Peace must also be included in that.)

3 .They were very well prepared and knew how government of India is going to react to the situation like this.

4. They had their main Head quarters for this operation as Taj and Oberoi Hotels. They might have sent a team of 2 or 3 people to both the Hotels. Who prepared the arrival for the others to attack. These people collected all the food stock and Ammunition that is needed for the attack in the Hotels.

5. We must say that Master Minds of this operation has already escaped the location just when Terrorist started attack. Master Mind shared all the details with the terrorist before they attacked. I would not be suprised if they have even visited the hotel before actually carrying out the operations.(This is evident as they terrorist knew in and out of the hotels. It is surprising that our NSG did not get proper maps of the hotel when terrorists managed to get them before hand.)

6. The Terrorist came by Boats from obvious some shores of Pakistan.(I know any Pakistaini reading the blog will totally disagree. And say this is India’s plan they carried out this plan to blame it on them. But rest of the world know the facts. So I am going to continue.)

7. They Hijacked some boat on their way to India. Killed the person on board for fun. I dont know if the person they killed was an Indian if He was then surely they killed him for the sake of it. I read they beheaded the person who was in the boat. I will not go with much of the evidence that they got from the boat. As it would mainly be left wantedly to confuse the investigation people. Come on people who are able to carry out such big operation. Would they be fool to leave satellite telephone and some foreign Sim Cards just like that ?

8. They knew they have to be fast in first some hours. Go with a bang. Kill Kill Kill. And then take hostages. Create a drama. Talk to TV Channels. They made sure they got as many Foreign tourist as possible as that would buy them time. Which It did!

9. They will try to kill maximum hostages before they die. It does not surprise me when they killed the hostages in Nariman House. They would not leave them cause they were Jews. They just could not leave them alive.

Possible reaction suspected by Government of India. I did suspect late reaction for which Government did not disappoint me. The Blame game between the parties has already started. (Which Even Terrorist knew is going to happen.) India going tough on Pakistan and telling them it was their men who did this. Pakistan smiling and answering “It wasn’t Me.” We will give all our support to India Government on the blast if we have any. We are also suffering from Terrorism. People of Pakistan condemned Attack on Mumbai. Dont you think we have heard this over and over again. This will happen for sometime. News Channel will follow this closes get their TRPs Higher!!! Slowly the news will be forgotten. 

What can Government do?

Make Borders like Iron Sheilds.(Like Isreal) Dont allow a fly to pass by. Call in more people. Increase Budget give more hike to our Security People encourage people to Join Defence.

More Intelligence. See how ISI operates they know in and out of our country. I suspect we know them that well. Half of our country is covered by Sea on its borders its time we concentrate more on Navy. Buy more Ships. More patrol Boats. Have check points in every place possible. Every Shopping malls, Parking, Garden , Cinema halls. We must realise that we are under constant War with Terrorism. We better be prepared for it. Do tough talk with Pakistan tell them we wont accept such bull shit from them every time. (Government says they have sure shot information on Kabul Blast. Every other Country know about it. So why is it not taking any actions ? What are they waiting for ?)

Investigation. What would I do to investigate ?

1. Check out people in Hotels for past 1 month. 

2. Who visited them? 

3. Check all the Cameras in the hotels.

4. Check the Hospitalised, Dead and Rescued list of people.

5. Check the Calls exchanged between the two hotels. Calls coming in and out of hotel.

6. Question each and every people working in Hotel. Monitor their movement for 6 months atleast if you have to.

7. If any evidence come. Make it public. When Terrorist can make their plan and their motives public. So can you. Let the people of your country know. Who you think did it and give proof for that. Let the World see it. Let our Neighbouring Country know. We mean business.

Another Advice:-

One time for the Sake of God, Humanity and all the innocent lives lost. Government of India must take tough steps. (And must take together not divided and fighting among themselves for few Seats in coming election.) So that next time those M@!&er F%@*ers try to attack us their balls fall off. The Terrorist caught must be hanged in Public. They must be given to People to kill. And please People of my Beautiful Country DONT BE POLITE. Torture those M@!&er F%@*ers. Cut each and every part of their body. Put Salt on them. Throw them on hungry Dogs or Rats even better.  Make them suffer how each and every Victims have suffered and how each and every families suffering from their loss.

If its the question about Kashmir- “Let me tell you one thing again and will tell till my last breath : Dudh Mangoo  Tho Kheer Denge Kashmir Mango Ge tho Cher Denge!”
