Hi everyone- This part of my post is influenced by the recent post by Chetan Bhagat @Times of India. The reason why I call this post of mine "COmmonWealth Loot-fest games" is pretty much clear. Much has been investigated and proved. I personally dont want to support the games by watching/attending the opening/closing ceremony or listening to any theme song. I want to make sure that I refrain from generating even a single paisa for the games.
At a point of time even I thought that instead of pointing fingers on others I can rather support the games. But after I read Chetan's post, it has become very clear for me, what I should do.
Recently, Times of India quoted "India is the youngest country in the world with an average age of 26". It's just a statement for all of us. But the reality behind the statement, if fully understood can change India a little bit and that little bit will be more than enough.
Also, Kalmadi quoted " Our Commonwealth Games is going to be better that Beijing games and will achieve this with your help". Kalmadi still wants help (money) from us. He wants us to watch the games and generate revenue for him. Now everyone is focussing on the games to be done somehow and after that they are going to put committee, reports and all sorts of formalities an then after some 15 years when the convicted would be no more, the case will be closed. It's a good opputunity for me to understand what Mahatma Gandhi meant by non-cooperation. Let's tear apart the rulers. Let's take the batton, not for the games but for ourself.
"Let's not cover up injustice on account of a fake sense of honour that needs to show everything is in order. In the case of the CWG, the organizers are the oppressive husband, the Indian people the battered wife. But modern Indian wives do not stay silent and suffering anymore."-Chetan Bhagat.
I am not going to be a fool this time.

Manifesto - A piece of S**t or something important !
Heya readers!
The following post has nothing to do with any political party nor any religious group. Resemblance to any one is purely coincidental.
This post is quite different from my other posts'. I was goooooogling once and i saw the word "manifesto" somewhere. I thought of giving it a shot and understanding what it really means to Indian politics. Let me first tell what ma conclusion was! Manifesto is a piece of shit sorry not actually a piece of shit but a piece of paper that defines what a political party is gonna do if it comes to power.Not to forget the importance it has after elections. It was then that I thought of writing this post and throwing a suggestion.So here it goes!..............All the national parties release their manifestos before elections..is that true?... wherin they clearly state what is that they gonna do when they comes to power. So the party with the most attracting Manifesto should win the election. Is that what happens? Clearly a no! What I am trying to say is that there should be a general body like a commision or something like that, which closely monitors the manifesto of the party that is ruling and take certain decision based on analysis. Here comes the most imporant part. What this general body should do just before election is that they should ban the political party or a particular neta from contesting that particular year if the promises stated in the manifesto are not fullfilled. e.g if the Education Minister of the INC fails to deliver the promise then he should not be allowed to contest in the next general/state elections. One thing is sure that the INDIANS are never gonna vote for a party based on the manifesto. Because a lot many times we get influnced by religion and community that makes us to remain biased about certain parties. So there should be a body that should take decision n behalf of us.The gist is "A political party should not rule India but a strong manifesto should do it."But there is an issue regarding the authenticity of the body that would be formed. Its very easy for a national party to influence a small body.
That makes me conclude that all the people who think these kind of shit should stop thinking too much and have fun!
Be educated ! Think bout the country as well!
Thoughts welcomed
