What they Thought and Said-
                                                                                                                                                                Reverend Edward Everett Hale had his own experiences with Congressmen and Sentors. It may be good and bad but he said once that" I look at the US senators and pray  for the country" Mahatma Gandhi had his own view on Indian and western civilization. But he discretely and shortly said once about Western Civilization " I think it would be a good idea."


                                        Once Oscar wild was humiliated very badly. Somebody had thrown rotten Cabbage on him on the stage. However he calmly and  intelligently replied him "Thank you my friend. Every time I smell it, I shall reminded of you." Abraham Lincoln was once accused of two faced.  he replied it very lightly and jocularly that " If I had two faces do you think I had be wearing this one."

                                         Winston Churchill was very humorous.  One of the MPs once asked him " Churchill  must you fall sleep when I am speaking?"  Churchill curtly replied  " No it is purely Voluntary."
Once Bessie  Braddock told Churchill "Winston you are drunk and what is more you are disgustingly drunk"
Churchill replied it very sportingly that " Bessie you are disgustingly ugly, but tomorrow I shall sober and you will still be disgustingly ugly."


                                         However some people are very sharp in their remarks. Once Groucho Mark'x said sarcastically to somebody " I never forget a face but in your case I will glad to make exception."
                                          This shows that each celebrity is having it own style and way to convey his views.

Unholy Alliances in Indian Politics.
                                                                                                                                                                  It is said that politics is the game of scoundrels. No politician is ever enemy of any one permanently. In short it is like bed shared by odd couple if necessary arises. In Indian politics mostly two things are very important for politicians i.e. power and wealth. Hence any odd alliances can take place at any time. There were very few political leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Patel and others which can be counted on finger tips and who believed in principles and values. Those tall leaders were ready to leave power and wealth for the national and public interest. Now days we can observe such odd alliances in politics for personal ambitions and overlooking public interest. It is strange that political parties who were fighting against each other becomes friendly after election i,e, On the name of giving stable government. However the main interest behind such alignments are for power sharing. This is not good for the country and the democratic system .


                                             The present alliances  between  Lalu Yadav, Sharad Yadav, and Nitiskumar in Bihar is purely a marriage of convenience against 'BJP'. Similarly the alliance between 'BJP' and Manjiram a defected former chief minister of Bihar is only adjustment without any common factor in the the matter. Even to make their political alliances powerful the Politicians can go up to having family members marriage alliances. This is only done in order to strengthen their political base. It is very funny to see the Political Enemies of the past hugging publicly each other. The  people must be enjoying the fun. The card of secularism is played against communalism in order to get votes. The some of the parties which were not ready to touch 'BJP' are now ready to join with them for the sake of power.
                                            Such odd alliances has taken place in the Jammu and Kashmir between 'PDP' and 'BJP' in order to share the power. However their political out look is quit against each other. In the process the separatist and terrorist element may furnished in the valley. Besides that 'BJP' has to give up their stand on Article 370 and on the displaced Kashmiri Brahmin problems of  the valley. It is on the whole power sharing at the cost of public and national interest.


                                             It is also observed that the recently formed 'AAP' Party also was ready to share power with congress before election in order to stop 'BJP' to come power in Delhi.  This clearly shows that any body can join anybody for sharing power without any consideration of public or national interest.
All these shows that Indian public is watching all those acrobatics helplessly. The question arises that whether India is having real democracy or it is only for name sake. However in the process  Indian public is still suffering with political corruption, mismanagement and misuse of public resources. It is also fact that about 33% of Indian population is still suffering from poverty and minimum services after independence of  more then 65 years. We can at least  pray 'God' to save India

The performance of Narendra Modi Government During Nine Months
                                                                                                       Narendra Modi became Prime  Minister with the very big  mandate and with very high expectation among  the people of India.
                                                                                                           Narendra Modi has been very much balance in making statements but has failed to control his MP and Party Men to stop making contradicting and Statements with Religious colors. He has been taking about Clean and  Developed  India with the cooperation of all. However the statements coming from his people are  giving  different signals. They also shows signs of some hidden Agenda. He took long time to make statement that his Government will treat all Religions Equally.  It has also created wrong impression among the people and leaders of the world. The American President Barrack Obama also made some sarcastic remarks  about the divisive forces in India. It appears that Narendra Modi statement came thereafter to clarify his Government position.

                                                                                     Modi has also created good impression regarding  Indian foreign policy. He visited  America, Japan and several countries in order to establish cordial relation and also get good investment from them. However it will not be successful until the right climate is created for trade and business. He also tried to please 'NRI' by relaxing some of the Visa rules which were very much welcomed by them. Modi wants to create India as a manufacturing Hub so that it can become self reliant and can also increase its export. However the project has still not come up to take up position.  Deepak  Parekh Chairman of ' HDFC' has recently said that 'Nothing is changed in the rule under  Modi'. He added that' No concrete steps are being taken  so far in that direction.

                                                                                 Narendra Modi also tried to tightened the Civil Servants by controlling their execution timings and discipline. He has been successful up to great extent. However the appointment of  special officer on duty in various ministries with his prior approval has created lots of heart burning  at ministerial level. He some time takes decision directly at official level without knowledge of concerned Minister. The recent removal of Foreign Secretary is one of the instances.

                                                                               At  Party level Amit shah is in very much in confidence with him. It has created impression that he takes all decisions regarding party in consultation with Amit Shah and other party officials are ignored.  The one the very important officials of the party Pradute Vora has openly protested against the policies followed by Narendra Modi and Amit shah. There are also lots of heart burning in the 'BJP' due to its defeat in Delhi Election. It appears that 'BJP' is more or less busy with the winning the State Elections and forming the governments. This has side line the positive role of the government for developments.
                                                                            The Nine Months are passed and common men of India is still waiting for 'Achhe Din to Come'.  Nobody can not take it granted the people in Democracy forever. We do not know when people will change their mood which already reflected in the recent election of Delhi. Hence this is waking up call for 'BJP' and Narendra Modi. The announcement of projects are  not important but their executions are the most important. Let us Wait and Watch.

Arvind Kejriwal- An emerging hero of Indian politics
                                                                                  Arvind Kejriwal who is a convener of  Aam Admi Party has led his party to the glorious victory in the recent Delhi election by defeating  the National Parties like "BJP"  and "Congress". "BJP" hardly got few seats and "Congress" is fully wiped out.  However Arvind Kejriwal believes that it is victory of Truth and Honesty.
                                                                                   Arvind  Kejriwal is a known fighter against corruption. He is very much conversant with corruption prevailing in the Government Department  as he had also worked income tax department as a joint Commissioner of Income Tax. He was chasing the corruption in Government Departments through  right of information.  In the 2006 he received the Magsaysay Award for 'Emergent Leadership'.


                                                                                   He joined  Anna Hazare crusade  against government  with main objective to fight against corruption. He supported Anna Hazare for creating strong 'Lokpal Bill' in order to remove corruption from the public life. However every time government will go back to their assurances given  to Anna Hazare as soon as agitation is withdrawn. It had encouraged Arvind Kejriwal to enter in to politics which Anna Hazare considered to be Dirty.
                                                                                The success of Arvind Kejriwal in politic is the support of Youngster of India and the people who are fed up with the Corrupt System.  It is a glorious victory but it has also raised the high aspiration among the people. Therefore Kejriwal will have to  maturely and tactfully  handle the various problems faced by the Delhi. We wish him and his team best wishes for the success in their positive efforts.

Morarji  Desai's Birthday Anniversary - Quality of Leadership
                                                                     The Birthday of  Morarji Desai the first Gujarati Prime Minister falls on 29 Th February according to Christian Calendar Year( Which fall on leap Year i.e.  Every Four Years) However it is generally celebrated every year on 28 Th February  for the the shake of Convenience. "Dhuleti "the most Auspicious Day in Hindu Religion is his Birthday according to Hindu Calendar Year.
                                                                      He was a man of principles and values which became  his political liabilities. He paid heavily for the same in politic. He was not ready to compromise with the principles which he considered to be the incarnation of Truth.  It also created the impression of stiffness and unflaxibilitiy. Laxman use to draw his Cartoon by putting his Cap on the Stick(i.e.The Sign of Stiffness). However he rarely defended his criticism as he considered it as a Healthy sign in Democracy.  Once he said that if you considered me Stiff then you are also Stiff as you are trying to impose your view on me. But most important thing is that he was very much tolerant of different views.

                                                                     He was one of the best administrators and honest politician.He believed that you can be in politics with some values and principles. He never compromised with the public interest for his popularity. The old 'Bilingual Bombay State' administration was the best in India during his tenor as Home Minister and Chief minister thereafter.


                                                                       He once Sealed the news paper Daily Agrani 'Hindu Rashtra' run by Nathuram Godse(Who murdered Mahatma Gandhi) for writing continuously against Mahatma Gandhi then. Nathuram Godse complained to him for the same stating that he can write against anybody in the democratic set up of India.  He replied to him very curtly that you cannot go on writing against Gandhi whom whole Nation loves and Respect . You cannot hurt the sentiments of Indian Masses.  Bombay police then sent report against Godse and his colleagues for their undesirable activities. But Gandhiji could not be saved as he refused to allow screening of the people who come to his daily prayer meetings. He also handled very well all rebellion political leadership of Bombay including George Fernandes (A Trade Union Leader then).  Baburao Patel, Editor' Film India', Bombay then use to addressed him as a  Bull of Bulsar.  He was very strict once legally  proved that something wrong was done. He sent even Indira Gandhi to Tihar Jail for three days for misleading the parliament in spite of several representations by prominent political leaders. However he never allowed anybody to touch Indira Gandhi unless and until legally charges are proved. It is well known fact that Indira took the advantage of the same and toppled the' Janata Government' before the the publication of Shah Commission Report. The law and order was completely under control during his tenor in Bombay. The very few persons may be knowing that father of Don Daoud was one of the a honest constables in the Bombay police force then.


                                                                       His political career was damaged in Gujarat and Maharashtra by Dynasty and Wasted interest for stopping him from taking over reign of India after Nehru. Thereafter he has to wait for about more then fifteen  years to become the Prime Minister of India. However during his tenor as a Prime Minister all controls were removed and all essential commodities were available freely and in plenty. The inflation rate was the lowest  in the history of independent India during his time. The International Relations were very cordial  including with Pakistan. He reestablished the democracy and amended the constitution in such a manner that Emergency cannot be imposed by any one without the absolute majority in parliament. It is unfortunate that his regime could not survived for long time otherwise Indian history would have been different.
