Personal
On the other side of the table.
One day I got a call from my father and I picked it up hoping that it would be just another enquiry call about how I was and what I am doing. Usually I am ready with the answers to these type of questions (different every time) but this time around the question was such that I had no clue what to say. No, he wasn’t asking me whether I would like get married. He told me that some association of industrialists are organizing a trade fair in the city and asked if it would be a good idea to set up a stall there to promote our business. Thinking being one of my favourite hobbies and having no immediate answer for the question, I decided to waste a few minutes of my father’s precious time and went into the ‘mull’ state.

Before you read this.....
Before you read this, please put your brain aside like you do while watching Bollywood movies.
Daddu goes to dreamland. A place where anything that you imagine, think
or wish comes true at the blink of an eye. While I was writing the
previous sentence, an idea crossed my mind. How good would it be to
wish that your every wish comes true? In this way you wouldn’t have to
spend time in the dreamland. But I guess I am taking this wishing thing
too seriously. After all, why would everything that you wish for come
true? Just imagine the chaos it would create in the world. Even 2
Confused....like never before.
I have been in a confused state a lot of times before but have never been under such a dilemma ever. This time around the matter I am dealing with is going to decide the course of my future.
The campus recruitment in my college has started and my prospects of getting the kind of job I want with the kind of package I am expecting are quite remote. And there is another important thing, I think there is something lacking in me which makes me a not so suitable candidate for the companies. Aargh!!!!! Doesn’t matter, it’s their loss if they don’t want me.
Poem: Love is like...........
My first post will start with a poem for the one “I”
love…….My virtual name would be Achilles from now on and I will make
further posts in this name only.
“Love is like………..”
I just wanted to care for the one I love,
but there were many obstacles and only one “beautiful” dove.
I tried to stay calm and cool,
but there was no appreciation from that “fool”.
I tried to change the relationship and bring us together,
but she was not ready to put a feather.
I got out my feelings to the fore,
but she betrayed me, she pushed me, she was not truthful
experiencing this they withered to the core.
AP, Telengana & smaller states
After Telengana now UP CM has come in support of smaller states.
Does creation of smaller states leads to speedy development? Is it
that bigger states have become unmanageable because of area or
population size? Or is it that more officers per unit area/per unit
population enhances efficiency of service delivery?
Are there any statistics available to support such assertion? Some
sort of cost benefit analysis? Expenditure on creation of state
(infrastructure, extended bureaucracy, smaller districts etc) and
improving social economic indicators, in a given period?
Some variant of Keynesian economics, huh!
Don't SMS and drive!
Graphic in nature but drives home point.
Happy Independence Day!
