wanna kiss ??? Wait a minute

Wanna kiss?? Wait a minute you can be convicted for rape…
             
                        We have read a lot about what happened with Ruchika Gehrotra Where the girl was molested by Haryana IG S.P.S Rathore in 1990 and what is even more noticeable here  is the punishment he got. Any way this blog is not to tell the flaws in judicial system . We all know that we live in a messy country, where theory of randomness has a greater say over any other theories (if there are any). Not yet convicted for anything? You must be lucky because one day you can just find a snap on your door saying you have been charged under so an so case- have fun for the rest of your life time finding out who did what. And Ofcourse “why “ if you can
                        After Ruchika case our judicial system thought , people are saying so many bad things about us let us do something at least for a change.  And they come up with this – A new draft  Bill Under which – If a man forcibly puts his finger in to woman’s  mouth or lets his tongue enter her mouth during a kiss (if you can restrain doing this and yet to manage a kiss our law is ok with that) he could end up in jail for sexual assault with the sentence no less than the punishment for rape (yes you heard it right – for the “Rape”) which is seven years of life. Wait a minute – have you guys gone nuts Are you telling us that there is no difference between a “vilolent Rape and Kiss” ? you got to be kidding me. There has to be something better than you guys have come up with. You mean to say the guy who just happens to kiss his girl friend is going to be charged against Rape (ofcourse the GF didn’t quite liked it )?  Rest of the life he will be known as rapist?.
            I don’t deny that Indian laws on sexual assault have been extremely weak. At present section 375 and 376 deals of IPC deals which deals with the Rape.  But Wont this kind of law (The new amended one ) could be used at a greater extent merely to extort money , to outright panic that the doors would be thrown open for false cases that can destroy a person reputation. I know whats in your mind , you wanna say – Why don’t you suggest something about how do we handles millions of “Rathores” out there.  well I bet I have one  – how about giving the trial system a real pace when it is about rape ,molestation ?Hang The molesters  if you want but at  least do this in a Fare way. Give them chance to say what they have to say about this. Why not murder ? I am sorry I thought you already knew this – there were 30 million pending murder cases as of sep 2009 which will take – I don’t know may be decades to resolve all given we (the people of india) take an oath not to murder any body hereafter for any reason. So I thought at least the rape and sexual molestation charges trial can be a little speed up ?  
                                    High time our honourable judges please wake up , bring something real on desk at least for a change. I know you have slogged enough to reach that place and you have lost touch with work (The Real one ) but then atleast don’t throw some thing as stupid as this to us. Don’t call us rapist we happen to kiss our GF when she was in bad mood

Are we ready for it ?



“When Men delayed History in INDIA a Woman creates history” this was the headline from one of the leading newspaper “The Economic Times” . One day later the news was“Women bill passed”. I was trying to find out how good it is going to serve INDIA as a decision or it’s a just another political move? I am not definitely trying to put a dictum about how good or bad the decision was, but I have few facts to put and I leave the decision up to you.

So far all the political parties have terrible record of giving women a share in political representation. Take for example 2009 election there were 8070 candidates who contested in these polls. Only 7 percent that is 556 were women candidate. So is it there are less good women available for representation or it is something else ? if former is the case aren’t we compromising the nation future. I don’t have single instance in mind where the reservation has served any purpose other than making rich richer.

I was told by women friend of mine that this is exactly we need reservation because this will bring more representation from the community which is considered to be comparatively week. And I had to tell her that just in case if you don’t know “OBC and Muslim women not to be given representation” because our constitution says They can have reservation only in jobs and education but not in legislatures. I am very sorry to say that though it’s a very good move but was not being taken keeping the nation interest in mind. It was mere a political move by Sonia Gandhi to bring Rahul Gandhi to power. The process was initiated at this point because she wanted to widening parties base ,luring in to mainstream whole new constituencies hoping that this will guarantee 300 + seats in loksabha so Rahul Gandhi can be king when he becomes PM ?

When I tried to dig a little more on NOT what Sonia Gandhi really think about it but what she actually does , the facts were surprising. Despite the fact that she shouts it so loudly that she is for woman empowerment she had allotted just about 10% of total seats for women in last election. Mayawati party BSP did even worst by restricting it to 5%.

Check this fact , out of the 59 women MP s 40 to be precise were crorepatis. And - out of the 59 Female MP s 10 have criminal cases pending against them. That makes it 17% of the women representative are criminals. What bothers me is, will we be ever able to find good representatives with this Quota rules? Can my nation take this as well? We need good and Strong leaders irrespective of their Sex. Our Foreign policies are messed up , China growth is bothering us day by day and eating our employment , and our honorable representatives are too busy to give a damn about what country needs. Party comes first and then country. People told me that decisions come out after a proper discussion in Loksabha so I decided one day to listen to that as well. After listening to two hour of discussion I felt there is nothing what these buggers care about other than shouting at each other. There wasn’t a single healthy discussion in 2 hour session and no wonder why only stupid policies and decisions come out of this place.

My research on this bill was able to convince me that there is nothing actually that good as it was portrayed. It’s just yet another political move to increase vote bank and the nation is definitely not ready for it. It’s a very good thing to give reservation to women but maybe this is not the right time. I have not even an iota of doubt that women have better management capabilities than any of men can ever have but there is lot of homework to be done before we expect that we as a nation can actual reap the benefit out of the capabilities our female counterparts have.And reserving seats in LS definitely doesn't serves the purpose helping them to grow by giving them equal space does.Celebrating every day as women's day does, Giving them the respect they always deserved and ever denied, Does.

Global Warming


Well this blog has nothing new to offer where as the idea behind writing this is to make people aware of the seriousness of the issue which was/is definitely ought to be taken seriously.

Needless to mention that global warming is here to stay. The extent of warming could range from 1.8* to 4* C. This will lead to water scarcity and drought as well as higher rainfalls and floods. And I don’t think I need to exemplify it to people who are in constant touch with at least the front page headline of any newspaper. Still exemplify it -----

The process of global warming cannot be reversed just like loss of biodiversity but it can be checked by measures that both rich and poor countries can adopt as the worst effected will be poorer countries even though the problem has been created by the rich. The two suggested way to put a check on this issue is “mitigation” and “adaptation” just like every another problem. Mitigation is a preventive action where as adaptation is a response to the ills that global warming would cause.


I was thinking if I have my grand grand Daughter/Son standing right in front of me and I have some chemical in my hand, spraying which will cause sure death whether I will do that? I was thinking for a while and then a loud reply came why are you even thinking? Of course not, no body would, unless until he has gone insane. But then looking at my bike silencer which was blowing black fumes I realized I was doing the same. Its just as I can’t see the direct impact as I am not gonna be alive to see my grand grand I can’t understand the severeness of the problem. We can’t but animals like polar beer are seeing the impact of mess we have created over here on earth and must be wondering why the heck god ever created humans? The people who claim to be pure vegetarian must think about this. Aren’t they killing animal in this way. Just because the animal is not being killed right in front of eyes doesn’t make the crime less severe.

If I go a bit in to technical details the gases which contribute to warming include methane, nitrous oxide, *.fluorocarbons. And if we listen to IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) which is an international body of over 3000 experts, The temperature of earth may increase between 1.8* to 4* C by 2100. so next doubt which was daunting my mind that whether arresting the release of aerosols and green house gasses (GHGs) can stop the temperature increase and other impacts? Answer was “NO”. Once emitted these gases stay in the atmosphere will stay for decades if not centuries. That means fire will take time to burn itself out assuming that no further fuel is added to it, which will be a daunting task.





But I do have good news also to share and that is in spite of energy use account for more than 80 percent of carbon dioxide emission worldwide, it is indeed good news that economic growth has been achieved while holding down the growth of CO2 emission. And that means effort is paying off. This blog is also one such effort. Please avoid aerosol product, buy only ozone friendly products. Try to avoid bikes and use as much public modes of transportation as possible.
