Letter from Modi to Shareef

Dear Miya ji,

Humaare aitbaar ka aap ne yeh jawab diya!
Sochtha hoo aisa aap ne kyon kiya!

Friendship why did you bluff!
This is not Mardh stuff!

You should have spurned my extended hand!
Men take a firm stand!

Chalo you will say Army not in your control!
And in this attack it played the main role!

Then before accepting my hand!
You should have checked out Army's stand!

I extended my hand for peace in the region!
Peace is a hallmark of my religion!

Thought let our Countries spend less on Defence!
Present spending by both of us doesn't make sense!

Why not use more money for Nation's upliftment???
After all this is every Government's commitment!

Your Generals want to create strife to stay relevant!!
And the hunger for wealth is ever prevalent *!

This indiscriminate firing and shelling!
Is actually very telling!

It's done so that replenishment is done!
And your Generals end up 'making a tonne'!

For your Generals exporting terror is a dhandaa!
Greed for money has made them andhaa!

I had one more reason for extending my hand!
One more reason for softening my stand !

For me every Indian life is precious!
These killings are atrocious!

Your Bombs have taken so many Indian lives!
Your Jehadis do it in their quest for 72 wives!

Shaanti means pragatti!
War means durrgatti!

Seeing the bigger picture I will not stop talks!
Though I'm under great pressure from Indian Hawks!

I recall your Home is full of stuffed Lions...funny!
Because the owner is more like a bloody Bunny!

Aap ka Allah aap ko bakshe himmat aur akkal!
Ek dinn aap ne Uss ko dikhani hai apni shakal.

Bandh karta hoo yeh khatt Iqbal ke ek sher ke saath!
Harr Pakistani samajhta hai inn ke baath!

Zameer jaagh hee jaata hai, aggar zinda ho Iqbal,
Kabhi gunnah se pehle kabhi gunnah ke baad!!!


* Nahi pathaa kitna hissa Politicians ko hai jatha!
Koun kitna hai khaata!!

Yes, Modi is now losing his charm. Now people do not want to see him on TV. He has failed to fulfill his poll promises.

Justice Lodha Committee Recommendations

The rot in BCCI's functional ethics brought Supreme court of India in the picture to cleanse its infamous affairs. The beckoning of Justice Lodha committee appointed for the purpose ,for the politicians and bureaucrats to keep away from the supreme Indian Cricketing body, also bodes for the other sporting bodies to act alike by implications. However ,in reality major sports bodies in India have become the personal fiefdoms of these influential classes for the reason that the resources required to run these organisations cannot otherwise be met with. It is laudable to suggest that the sportsmen should run sports bodies, but in reality the sportsmen will not be able to provide for the required resources. Since they also control the government, the sports policies would not be made to promote sports by sports persons and the control of these persons would continue in reality. Stakes in many sports bodies are very high and mercenaries are in abundance. The rot in sports bodies in all likelihood would continue.

Dissent, disaffection, denounce but never assent

Are we a debating society only or a nation? Are the Air Force, Navy, Army, BSF and Police alien to the nation or an organic part of the entity called the Nation? The endless debates on TV channels among shrieking and shouting hosts and guests, which are invariably always superficial and shallow, cause more harm than help issues. The Pathankot incident is the latest in the series. Compared to the coverage of the recent Paris attack on CNN & BBC and the counter attack on the ISIS by France, Germany, UK & USA, the TV channels covering Pathankot portray us as a nation in endless debates in dissent and disaffection without ever in assent with the authorities. It irks more when those who had never ever faced even an SSB speak authoritatively of what has not been done or what should have been done. If the veterans invited to the show make any attempt to do a genuine analysis, the host cuts them short before they have completed expressing themselves or simply go on a commercial break. Pathankots are no short cuts to TRP or commercial purposes please. There is a need to bring the people closer to the Army & other services to close this gap. The Army is an "arm" of the people, as are the Navy, Air Force and all other security forces. They celebrate their birthdays. It is time to re-structure the celebrations from this year to include people's participation in a modern way besides the parade. Qualities of character, valour, bravery, chivalry and service should not remain exclusive prerequisite of the armed forces alone; it has to be the bare minimum in every Indian. An advanced state like Punjab, always on alert, even heightened alert since 30th December 2015, whose SP was travelling in his official vehicle with friends, failed to "suspect" the terrorists when stopped? Can it be believed? Should our citizens be so careless, our trained police officers given the responsibility of a very sensitive border district be so casual in facilitating terrorist attacks and our air base be left to the security of personnel who lower guard even after highest alert had been sounded or trained to watch for the enemy as a duty to the nation? People's participation in war and peace in close cooperation with the forces can secure us from enemy attacks like the one at Pathankot. People's perception of the forces and their work needs to be changed, which goes beyond employment. Can a beginning be made with the 68th Army Day celebration?
