  • letter from Editor Mumbai (Times of India)

    Following content is the forward mail I recieved from Anurag. Manmohan Sigh Ji AAb to sudharo

    LETTER TO PRIME MINISTER

    Dear Mr. Prime minister

    I am a typical mouse from Mumbai. In the local train compartment which has capacity of 100 persons, I travel with 500 more mouse. Mouse at least squeak but we don’t even do that.

    Today I heard your speech. In which you said ‘NO BODY WOULD BE SPARED’. I would like to remind you that fourteen years has passed since serial bomb blast in Mumbai took place. Dawood was the main conspirator. Till today he is not caught. All our bolywood actors, our builders, our Gutka king meets him but your Government can not catch him. Reason is simple; all your ministers are hand in glove with him. If any attempt is made to catch him everybody will be exposed. Your statement ‘NOBODY WOULD BE SPARED’ is nothing but a cruel joke on this unfortunate people of India.

    Enough is enough. As such after seeing terrorist attack carried out by about a dozen young boys I realize that if same thing continues days are not away when terrorist will attack by air, destroy our nuclear reactor and there will be one more Hiroshima.

    We the people are left with only one mantra. Womb to Bomb to Tomb. You promised Mumbaikar Shanghai what you have given us is Jalianwala Baug.

    Today only your home minister resigned. What took you so long to kick out this joker? Only reason was that he was loyal to Gandhi family. Loyalty to Gandhi family is more important than blood of innocent people, isn’t it?

    I am born and bought up in Mumbai for last fifty eight years. Believe me corruption in Maharashtra is worse than that in Bihar. Look at all the politician, Sharad Pawar, Chagan Bhujbal, Narayan Rane, Bal Thackray , Gopinath Munde, Raj Thackray, Vilasrao Deshmukh all are rolling in money.  Vilasrao Deshmukh is one of the worst Chief minister I have seen. His only business is to increase the FSI every other day, make money and send it to Delhi so Congress can fight next election. Now the clown has found new way and will increase FSI for fisherman so they can build concrete house right on sea shore. Next time terrorist can comfortably live in those house , enjoy the beauty of sea and then attack the Mumbai at their will.

    Recently I had to purchase house in Mumbai. I met about two dozen builders. Everybody wanted about 30% in black. A common person like me knows this and with all your intelligent agency & CBI you and your finance minister are not aware of it. Where all the black money goes? To the underworld isn’t it? Our politicians take help of these goondas to vacate people by force. I myself was victim of it. If you have time please come to me, I will tell you everything.

    If this has been land of fools, idiots then I would not have ever cared to write you this letter. Just see the tragedy, on one side we are reaching moon, people are so intelligent and on other side you politician has converted nectar into deadly poison. I am everything Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Schedule caste, OBC, Muslim OBC, Christian Schedule caste, Creamy Schedule caste only what I am not is INDIAN. You politician have raped every part of mother India by your policy of divide and rule.

    Take example of former president Abdul Kalam. Such a intelligent person, such a fine human being. You politician didn’t even spare him.  Your party along with opposition joined the hands, because politician feels they are supreme and there is no place for good person.

    Dear Mr Prime minister you are one of the most intelligent person, most learned person. Just wake up, be a real SARDAR. First and foremost expose all selfish politician. Ask Swiss bank to give name of all Indian account holder. Give reins of CBI to independent agency. Let them find wolf among us. There will be political upheaval but that will better than dance of death which we are witnessing every day.  Just give us ambient where we can work honestly and without fear. Let there be rule of law. Everything else will be taken care of.

    Choice is yours Mr. Prime Minister. Do you want to be lead by one person or you want to lead the nation of 100 Crore people?

  • 26-11 Another Bad Day In Indian History

    26th & 27th of November 2008….. Will these days be remembered as just another days in which the terrorists told us that we INDIANS are bloody maggots without any Guts, only ready to buck our heads and cover our faces and carry on with our lives. Will this day be remembered as another day in which we INDIANS meekly allowed those terrorists to proclaim once more to the world that we INDIANS are readymade to be killed like rats. The government cannot save us it has been striving really hard to save itself for the past 4 and half years. if this kind of atrociousness keeps happening sticking to all the rules of consistency then it mean that we INDIANS HAVE NOT BEEN MAKING ENOUGH NOISE. RAISE YOUR VOICE IF YOU WANT TO BE ALIVE

  • Beijing : India Strikes Gold

    Abhinav Bindra created history by becoming first Indian to win Olympic Gold Medal for any individual event. He won the Gold in Men’s 10m Air Rifle Shooting event. Also this is India’s first Olympic Gold since 1980. Abhinav made proud to every Indian.

    Abhinav means ‘new’. So, just like your name, I wish his achievements brings in a new era of hope to Indian sport and instil confidence in young and aspiring athletes. I wish to thank his parents for supporting him to chose an alternate profession. Wish all the athletes of the present contingent a good luck.

    It is very rare to find talent and humility in a same person and Abhinav have it both in Him. Let this unique quality remain forever and help him scale greater heights.

    God Bless Him.
