Naxalite
                                                                      ======
Once upon time Changkai Sack was one of the most popular leaders of China. However gradually his regime became ineffective and whole system collapse. The rural China was suffering with land grabbing. The inflation was very high side. The corruption  became unbearable  The country was suffering and poor were in pitiable condition. The development were at standstill. This all had brought  discontent among Masses. That was the time when Mao movement got support. Maotse Tung's organized army and started   capturing the territories. The broken system could not stand and Mao's army proceeded to Urban Areas. It spreaded to whole China that made it red. It was a great cultural revolution. Chang Kai Saik regime  was driven out from mainland of China. He has to take refuge in 'Formosa' i.e Taiwan. It can be said that China is still under  Maoist Rulers on account of the failure of democratic system under Changkai Saik.
                                                         Indian situation is also developing serious on the same line. The inflation is on high side. The corruption going on uncontrolled.  The unemployment rate is on high side. The lands are being grab in rural and backward area by wasted interest.   The farmers are committing suicides because of heavy debts. 56 % population is struggling to survive and 30% is in below poverty line. The 5% to 10% are having good life which is increasing the gap between poor and rich. It is very gloomy picture for the people of India.
                                                         In that context  we have to see the Naxalite movement which is getting strong day by day.
Naxalite- Maoist Insurgency
=====================
The Naxalite Movement started from small Naxalbari Village of West Bengal. Its goal is to establish a Marxist state. It  also support rural poor and adivasi.
                                                       The movement has already spreaded in Ten states and about 180 districts of India.  The some time back Naxalite workers were arrested from the city like Surat which is situated in the Gujarat State. It is one of the well managed states in India.  The whole backward and rural belt from East to West and deep in South is in the grip of their influence. The Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has rightly said that "It is the single biggest internal security challenge face by the country".
                                                     Naxalite are having 20000 Arm Cadre and 50000 Regular Cadre which are consist of well educated young men and women. They have their own well organized Polit Bureau at Central level along with State and Regional level administrative committees.
                                                      It is interesting to note that they have exhort 300 million dollar and receiving financial and arm supply from China and  Pakistani intelligence agency 'ISI'. The more then Eleven thousands persons are killed sofar in the said insurgency,
                                                      It is very unfortunate that Marxist/ China influence is increasing in Pakistan,  Nepal,  Myanmar  and Sri Lanka. Marxist are already having strong influence in West Bengal and Kerala state in South India.
                                                     Indian democracy has worked very well even with less literacy rate. The election process has shown that people have tried to change the governments for better. However it appears that leadership has failed them. It may be noted that the violent and authoritarian system always flourished under such circumstances. We can only  pray ' God Save India'.

IRON MAN OF INDIA - SARDAR VALLABHBHAI PATEL
===================================
(31st  October 2012- \His Birth Anniversary)

Sardar patel was very senior leader in the freedom struggle. His loyalty to Mahatma Gandhi was unquestionable.  But Sardar had not showed much interest in Gandhian way of achieving independence in the the beginning of his career as  practicing lawyer in Ahemdabad. He use to ridicule his activities then in the 'Gujarat Club, Ahemdabad where he use to pass his Evening time. Some of the Junior Lawyers  Mahadev Desai and Narhari Parikh use to go to Gandhi Ashram. They suggested him to  meet Gandhi. He visited him out of curiosity  He was very much impressed with Gandhi during his first meeting. He decided to join with him. It  shows that Sardar never did any thing without understanding the thing in the right perspectives.It is said that his attachment to Gandhi was like a disciple with his  Mentor.
                                         He use to get up very early in the Ashram and use keep Gandhi's teeth brushing things ready before Gandhi get up. He was master organizer and Gandhi gave him leadership of' ' Bardoli Farmers Satyagraha. Sardar was successful and Gandhiji gave him title of Sardar means Commander. Besides that Sardar had his full control over Congress organization. Therefore he was having control over 14 Pradesh Congress committees out of Seventeen.  He would have easily become first prime minister of independent India  However Gandhi instructed him to give way to Nehru. He obeyed his masters order like a loyal soldier. But Gandhi also insisted that he should be in government looking at his caliber and capacity.
                                       Sardar Patel integrated the all 550 native states in the union of India tactfully.  He had analytical mind and clear vision.  He had difference of opinion with Nehru and they never show eye to eye. Sardar wanted that our army should flush out invaders from Kashmir and  should go up to Peshawar. It was required  in order get it confirm from Pakistan that Kashmir is part of India.  But Nehru prevented him to doing so stating that we will be considered invasion.  He preferred to go united nation. Sardar opposed it but he was helpless in the matter. We are still paying heavily on Kashmir issue. In respect of  Hyderabad Sardar had his own plan to  liberate it. Once he put the same before cabinet but Nehru angrily refused to accept the plan and alleged that Sardar was perfect communal and he cannot accept his plan and proposal.  The humiliated Sardar left and never attended cabinet meetings thereafter. This incident which took place one week before Hyderabad police action which is confirmed by MKK Nayar one of IAS officers of 1947 batch in his memories. However Sardar firmly implemented his Hyderabad plan and informed Nehru after Hyderabad was taken over. Sardar also warned Nehru well in advance and  before 1962 chines aggression regarding the malicious intention of China.
                              Sardar was very strict regarding high values in politics. He had never forgiven his only son Dahyabhai for using name to get some fervor  Sardar Patel life was very simple and he had no wealth at the time of his death.  Sardar never care for power and  had requested Gandhi to relieve him from government. This was due to his over going difference of opinion with Nehru.  However Gandhi was shot dead after that meeting within couple of minutes.
                          It was very unfortunate that he was awarded 'Bharat Ratna' the  highest civilian award after his death and that too after several years.

INDIRA GANDHI
=======

PREFACE
======
There was a death anniversary of Indira Gandhi on 31st October 2012 and she will be remembered for imposing Emergency in India and suspending the fundamental right. Besides that  She  liberated  Bangladesh, Nationalized Banks, and Removed the privy purses of the Maharajahs. They were her controversial actions. It is for people of India and history has to judge her action. However her action of imposing Emergency in the year 1975 was condemned universally by the people who loved democracy. Let us see what was it.
THE EMERGENCY OF 1975
---------------------------------------------------------------
Justice Jagmohan Saxena of Allahabad High Court debarred Indira Gandhi from holding any elected post for six years on 12th June 1975. She was debarred for corrupt practices in the election. However she was given three weeks for going to Supreme Court. The  democratic norms then required her  to vacate her position of prime minister until the supreme court decide her case. It was very embarrassing situation for her and she was determine not to give up position of power.  The opposition against her was becoming unbearable and she was in search of finding way out. One of her  Ministers Siddarthsanker Ray suggested her to impose external emergency but she decided to impose internal emergency on 25th June 1975 stating that ‘There is plot to negate the very functioning of democracy. However Shah commission appointed in this regard found no reason  for the same.’
                                           In the process of imposing Emergency Indira Gandhi clearly by passed the Parliament, and Cabinet. She sent declaration directly to the President fakhruddin Ali Ahmed for signature with message that approval of cabinet can be taken afterwards. President also signed the declaration accordingly. It was very unfortunate action of the president to sign the declaration without verifying the facts.
                                         Under the Emergency Indira Gandhi suspended the Civil Liberty and Fundamental Rights, Dissolve  some of the state assemblies, Gaded the Press,Coerced the Judiciary, and  arrested the Opponent. In short constitution was suspended.
                                         The lots of excesses were committed during  the period i.e. like arresting political opponent without trial, and the extra constitutional authority were used by her close associates.. Besides that some of the politicians and civil servant were never punished for their excesses during the Emergency. In the family planning campaign some people were operated who were not  even married. The bulldozer were used to remove Slums without any intimation and authority. There were many other excesses which were hidden and not accounted for.Indira Gandhi was not even well informed regarding the same. It appeared that she was losing control over government machineries. She withdrew the emergency and declared election. It may be under wrong report or for compelling reasons. Thus Emergency was withdrawn after Nineteen months. However tremendous  damage was done to the democratic structure of India. She was defeated in the election and the Janata Party(i.e. The combination of  opposition parties ) came in the power.
                                     Janata Party appointed ‘Shah Commission’ to inquire into the excesses of Emergency. Sanjay Gandhi was convicted in the case of ‘Kissa Khursika’ .However Janta Government was toppled before ‘Shah Commission ‘completed its report.  Janata Government  tried it best to repair the damages done during Emergency. They Amended the Constitution under the 44th Amendment of Constitution so that nobody can impose emergency in future without taking majority approval from the Parliament. They also brought ‘Prasar Bharati ‘ Bill in order to make TV and Radio independent so that no future government can not misuse it. In short derail democracy was brought in order.  However kuldip Nayar one of the prominent Journalist then stated that ‘Unfortunately Emergency had brought out some of basic weaknesses of Indian people i.e. How emergency was imposed without much resistance?

STEVE JOB- HIS QUALITIES
=====================
The lots of things are being told and written about Steve Job a founder of Apple. However still his close associates and friends remembers him and some new features of his life are coming up.
Steve was always great searcher of truth. Therefore he took his  journey to India for his spiritual feedback. However he was disappointed up to some extent.He appreciated that Indian people largely depends upon on their inner intuition for facing the life. Besides that he also learnt from India that one has to go according to his inner voice rather than  the opinion around him. It seems that was the foundation of his success.
                                              This was a time when Steve was out of apple.One of his associates Randy Adams  stated  that he was very particular and meticulous. He removed all his expensive cars from front parking when Ross Perot visited his company ‘NeXT’ to make investment  therein. Steve told Adams that ‘ He does not want Perot to carry impression that we have lot of money’ However Ross Perot invested 20 million dollars then and became director in the said company. He further remembers one incident when Bill Gates visited NeXT and waiting to meet Steve for one hours. He has to  keep Bill Gates engaged at reception area during that period. He further remarked that Steve did not appeared to be busy during said period but ‘It speaks about their rivalry. Scuff Marks eminent journalist was present when Apple opened its store at Stanford shopping center, Palo Alto. There were lot of black scuff on the floor of store. Scuff asked  looking at those black scuff on the floor to Steve standing next to him’ Whether he was involved in the  designing of the store? He replied ‘Yes’. Then Scuff further added”It was obvious that whoever designed the store had never cleaned a floor in their lifetime”  Steve had not shown any reaction to his remark. But afterward he called all designers  and got it cleaned the white floor by working at night. This shows he was humble to the sincere criticism.Guy Kawaski, ‘Apple’s Chief Liaison to the Mac Developer Community remembered  one incident wherein Steve shows ‘How to cut through all the Bull? He stated in that context’ that  once Steve brought one Gentleman with him at my cubicle and asked my opinion about ‘ Program from a Mac Developer called ‘Knoware’.  I  told him what I thought which was extremely negative.’ when it was done Steve  turn  back to me and said’ Guy this  is a CEO of Knoware. Steve had taste to know when you do great.Heidi Roizon,  Venture Capitalist says Steve was a friend in need and use to help in Grieve.  She says Steve Job called me on 1st march 1989 for some business negotiation. I would have not taken the call as my father died previous night  at Paris.  It was Steve so I fixed the appointment. He came to meet me and when we were talking  I informed him about the sad demise of my father.  “Why are you working? You need to go home. Please talk to me about your father and that too what was important about him. What you loved best about him.” He was very emotional as incidentally he had also lost his mother few months ago. however  I  still remember and appreciate what an incredible things he did for me in helping me grieve. That was Steve Job who can be  really human if situation demands.Emily Brower who was Steve Job  Aid at press conferences during his NeXT days says Steve was notice and use to pick up smallest details. Hence we were always careful when we were with him.
                                 This shows that some people may die but their shadows  are always lingering in this world due to the legacy they leave here.
