“A Hero or a Villain……..Nayak Or Khalnayak!!”

The person who I am going to introduce to you today is our own young vibrant CM “Mr. Omar Abdullah”. How do you look at him ….As a “Hero or a Villain!!…..As a “Nayak or Khalnayak!!”Lot of his actions resemble our bollywood hero Anil Kapoor…. “NAYAK-Ek Din Ka CM”.But remembers this CM has to carry on for 6 years.

Let’s first have a look at what exactly he has done so far and the Brighter or Darker side of his efforts. To set the tone right, let’s talk about his surprise visits first.

  • His surprise visit to “Lal Ded Hospital”. The premier maternity care hospital, Lal Ded is witnessing swift improvements after the chief minister Omar Abdullah’s surprise inspection. Now will this improvement drive continue or you just call it “Naya Josh”. How does a common man feel about it and how does the new CM himself feel about it.
  • Next surprise visit was in Jammu. Continuing with his surprise visits of various offices and important institutions, the Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah visited Grid Station, Gladni, SMGS Hospital and Police Station, Gandhinagar.Immediate suspension orders were rolled on spot. Now the only thing that boggles our mind is “Who all were suspended and did the orders get an official stamp?”Will he ever enquire about the same or he will just move on?

The new CM promises of solving the “Unemployement Menace” and resolving long standing “Kashmir Issue”. Now keeping our fingers crossed, do we believe him or we continue with our age old ideology of saying “His father did nothing, he will do nothing”. Is this the time to appreciate his efforts or suspect him? The new CM has asked the administration to formulate a schedule for the first 100 days of the government to set tone for good governance. He directed the PDD officials to e-mail him on every Monday the status of repairs and restoration. At times we feel so pleased about all this but at times we think “Isn’t it happening too quick and in a cosmic way?”

The new CM “Omar Abdullah “said that as he is the youngest ever chief minister of the state, people are looking at the government with high expectations and lot of hopes. Now the problem with this concept of youngsters as decision makers is that so far it is a musing and a fairy-tale. We often hear it “The Future Belongs To The Youth!!” How many young leaders and decision makers have you seen in history of India till now (leaving apart IT industries)? We all know the answer. It is simple because young people are hardly or as they say it “Once In A Blue Moon” taken seriously. People always neglect a softer, “greener” side to this generation drive. So what is CM Omar Abdullah’s fate and the fate of J&K.?

How many of you like me believe in this saying………………..

” A Tale Of Two Cities : “

 

          No Charles Dickens people,This one comes direct out of a common mans Grey Matter.A thought that boggles every other Kashmiri.Why is Jammu better developed than Kashmir when it was opposite 20 years back.Are they just Lucky or is it something else?
          We have a great heritage and culture still we lag behind.We have more man power and talent still we lag behind.We have more resources still we lag behind.Two different faces of the same coin.
          Lets have a look at something very interesting.How many flyovers do we have here in Srinagar City.Yeah I know we have one in HSH Street(Hell I messed it up,thats actually an overhead bridge).If you know more ,do let me know.Ok lets go to our winter capital Jammu,Now thats what we call a flyover.Do I need to mention the Location for this one ??
           Fine lets talk about roads.How many two ways and Well mettled roads do we have here in Srinagar.Here we score a lot…..Secretariat Road,Boulevard Road,MA Road,Air PortRoad and yes Gupkar road.So many we have.Do you expect me to talk about interior of the City…….Excuse me Govt is working on all that too,for now they are busy counting Pot holes.
           How many houses have been constructed for people whose families have been butchered and property blown up.But yes govt has taken care of our migrant brothers and sisters,atleast they have full security flats and a job.
           All private MNC’s are either Establishing their Head Offices in Jammu or after reaping benefits from here they are moving to Jammu.The reason might be security,butlast time i heard some politicians saying everything in normal in kashmir,may be it was regarding the number of killings only.
           Newspapers are full of bad news and illegal activities when it comes to kashmir.I never see any such columns for Jammu.May be Center Govt is more interested in improving the condition of Kashmiris.We should be thankful in that case. 
           Yes one thing we will always have with us is the Natures Beauty,Now don’t expect someone to malignant that also.Come on everything is not in the hands of a Human being.If it was how much more do you think could be added to this story ??????

           Reminds me of a great saying “Taqdeer Bananey Waley Tuney Kami Na Ki, Aab Kisko Kya Mila Muqadar Ki Baat Hai” !!

“Political Correctness Is Tyranny With Manners.”

Ref:-Oxford
Politics: Activities concerned with seeking power.
Politics: Public Life and Affairs.
Politics: Art and Science of Government.

         Out of the three above I am sure most of you would agree with the first one.What makes me think so its nothing but “I think the way you think” and this is what exactly it means in present Era.Do we even get a glimpse of so called art and science of government,No because “Art looks good on walls and Science is only for Research”…This is what today’s politician thinks.Actually he/she is correct in saying so because the Level of Knowledge and Education he/she has,the definition falls within that.

         “Slander,Forgery and Hipocracy” makes politics complete.This is a norm and doesn’t surprise anybody rather you try to give it a new dimension buy including terms like “Fair,Ethics and Public”,it surprises everybody.

         If change is must then why not in case of “Polictics”.Is it fear of loosing Power and Grip or is it just Not Required.There is an old saying “Need is the Mother of Invention”,then why no inventions in case of politics.Or is it that there is no need for a change ??

         I remember some years back we had a nice Bollywood flick “NAYAK”.Did impress me a lot but then I thought…..Would he [One day CM in that Movie(Character Played by Anil Kapoor)] stay the same once he is in command permanently.Well I was not quite sure but that 1 day show did gave me an outline of what the world would look like if politicians start following the same path.Nothing magical,Nothing Supernatural he did still he achieved what he was supposed to.But How often do we see such acts taking shape in Real Life.What is it that stops people being sincere and loyal ??

        We often hear it/say it “One Man Alone can’t do Anything”.Are we being practical is saying so ???
