Break Up Letter to The UPA (Govt of India)


Okay so petrol got a hike, congratulations petrol! And I’m still waiting for mine!

Darn UPA! You can’t control the fall of the Rupee, can’t control inflation! On the whole I pay 56% of my yearly income as tax (yes I’m including the tax I pay at every place I eat and everything I buy) and what am I getting in return? Nothing!! Instead the petrol gets a hike on my expense!

UPA, you have taken all my money and when I’m not sure where it goes, the media reveals it to me through their ‘breaking news’ about your multi Crore Rupees scams and suddenly it all makes sense and I go ‘Oh so that’s where the Rs. 22/- tax I paid went when I purchased a veg pasta at Domino’s!’ And many more such revelations come out of the closet each day. But since this balances my account books, it should make me happy right? After all I know where my money is. But it doesn’t make me happy. It makes me very very very very angry!

Congress, you the eldest brother in the UPA, the only reason I voted for you during the last elections is because I do not want BJP to come in power. I have a constant fear that if BJP comes into power, what happened in Gujarat in 2002 will occur in the whole country and I really do not want to be ‘burnt alive’ for being from the minorities section of the country. I can’t allow the Communist parties to win either as I love my democratic freedom way too dearly.

As it is the time for appraisals, and UPA, if I was your reviewer (according to the Constitution of India, I am!) I would give you the least rating and make sure you’re fired! But since I cannot accept BJP or any other party in your place, instead of firing you, I will resign. It was a big mistake voting for you! I elected you and you have brought nothing but embarrassment to me which is traumatic enough to make me want to quit.

I have decided that I will pay a government which lives up to my expectation even b y 10% the required tax. Yes, you have understood it correctly; I will leave the country because I can no longer endure what you do to my savings account, to the development of this country and to my psyche as a citizen. There are millions who think on the same lines as I do. So UPA don’t you dare complain about brain drain! You had your chance and it’s officially over between us!

Just like an estranged lover, I now no longer want to see you or hear from you. But I need thank you for making me so rich! Rich because I can afford petrol and you are lowly beggar living on my charity! I don’t need someone or something like you in my life anymore so goodbye you dimwit!

Books Books Books

Books??? What are they? A book is a set or collection of written, printed, illustrated, or blank sheets, made of paper, parchment, or other material, usually fastened together to hinge at one side. A single sheet within a book is called a leaf, and each side of a sheet is called a page. A book produced in electronic format is known as an e-book. Okay that got too serious :-) Who needs books?? We don't. We're Gen X. We flee from books the way a Princess would flee from an ogre (everybody is not Princess Fiona). But I guess in this context, if a book is an ogre and I a Princess, then I'd love it with all I have. I've been brought up reading, reading, reading or rather I choose to grow up that way. The habit of reading is said to be the most sophisticated and civilized habit. Who cares we're all rebels we don't need books to make us civilized. Or do we? The definition of being civilized has also changed. For our predecessors, being civilized mainly meant being cul...

Novels Into Movies!

Reading a novel or watching a movie, which one would you prefer as your best mode of entertainment? In today's modern world novels are things of the past we'd rather prefer a movie. I'll tell you why. Who has the time to sit with a 600 page book for days together to enjoy a good story? Nobody, not today atleast. Thats why people prefer to watch a story that begins and ends within 3 hours and also gives visual pleasure. But my query is what about those movies that are made on these 600 - 1000 pages novels? Do we watch them? If we do, do we like them? Most of such movies are a filled with a little or (in most cases) lots of "masala" to suit the sesibilities of the so called "audiences". The best example I would quote here is Jane Austen's timeless classic "Pride and Prejudice" and Gurinder Chadda's murderous attempt to make it into a movie bollywood style! I wished Eliza and Dracy didnt exist in the novel after having watched this disaste...

Africa

Africa!!! 'The Dark Continent" they call it. Why is it called so? Ever wondered why? Is it because its natives are black skinned? I don't think so. From my point of view it is 'Dark' because its highly backward. No amount of international aid can over come the rate of starvation deaths, infant mortality rate, and also the number of people infected with HIV and AIDS. Why is Africa, (the richest continent in the ancient days, read about the Pharoahs of Egypt or the Empire of Ethiopia) in such a state today? Do we blame it on the whites who rule them even today for destroying their culture and hereitge and rendering them helpless with an identity crisis? Why are the blacks so violent? Is it because of their violent past? Is it because of the violent legacy left behind by the Europeans? Or is it just because they like being tough? Can anyone answer my questions? Africa has been on my mind since childhood and i need answers. If anyone of u who visit my blog have any an...
