33% reservation for women in Parliament.
Hey women folk of India why are you not taking the 33% reservation bill in Parliament and state legislatures seriously?
I don't understand how can you people even be so negligent and careless to take what you rightly deserve?
Well frankly speaking I don't understand why it is fixed at 33% and called as reservation.... it should in fact be 50% seats for men and 50% seats for women every elections, maybe the constituencies can be changed on a rotation basis.
It did not surprise me when the present UPA government did not table the bill in the ongoing session. Alas! I would like to call it as opportunity which Ms. Sonia Gandhi lost, they(UPA) had done fairly good job all these years and they should have landed a knock out punch by getting this bill passed.
How would they be able to get this bill passed, when the fiercest opponent of this bill Mr. Lalu Prasad Yadav, is their most important partner.
This bill was first tabled in parliament Mr. Devegouda was PM, i.e., almost 12 years and that this bill has not yet seen the light of the day, it is still languishing, God knows where.
I think Messrs Sonia Gandhi, Sushma Swaraj, Sheila Dikshit, Brinda Karat, Mayawati, Mamta Banerjee, Jayalalita, Vasundhara Raje, unite for the cause of womenkind and see to that this bill gets passed, I feel they should also media for this, and create a mass hysteria and bring pressure on the next government (be it the UPA, the NDA or the Third Front or whoever it is).
This bill needs to be passed urgently because women are facing lots of trouble these days, it has become very unsafe for them to move about in our cities.
And we all know the behavior of the male members of Parliament in the house, it is nothing short of outrageous to our consititution and also to our forefathers who gave us this wonderful gift called democracy, which we are not able to use to the benefit of us, I just hope that the more women in our Parliaments and Legislatures, the more sanity in India and the chances of India becoming a true superpower in the truest sense of the word.

Indian women.
Disclaimer: This blog is written in sheer admiration and respect towards Indian women.
I was in a hotel this Sunday morning having my breakfast. Two couples walked into the hotel, they seemed to be on the way to attend a marriage because both the ladies were dressed in silk saree, wearing jewellery, it looked like they had taken great trouble in getting themselves ready for the occasion or they might have been to a nearby beauty parlour, whatever it is they were looking absoultely beautiful.
I just hope that mere nazar nahi lagi hain!!!
In contrast their husbands were just so out of sorts.
Hats off to Indian women.

T-shirts
Come Friday and I eagerly wear a T-shirt to office. T-shirts reveal my tummy albeit a small one, but still an embarrassment. My image of slim and trim professional down the drain in a minute.
Well don't expect me to make public resolution of making meticulous plans to do gyms, workouts, yoga, etc. I won't make such statements in public.
Let me see what I can do with that tummy.

I AM A REBEL
Hey don't say here comes another one who just talks and talks about being rebellious.
I'm a rebel in more ways than one.........because I obey traffic rules, wear helmet while riding, come to office in time. I live in this half sleepy half enthusiastic district headquarter Belgaum in Karnataka.
This blog is not Belgaum bashing, I shifted from Bangalore to Belgaum because of my job.
Don't open your jaws wide, thinking as to why did I leave a world famous city to this sleepy town Belgaum. I will tell that story some other time.
I landed in this city on January 27th. Since then till May first week, I commuted in the city using the city buses. I got bored of lack of wings and when I had been to Bangalore I got my bike Bajaj Pulsar 150 DTS-i. My dad warned me that beware that city doesn't at all have traffic sense.
I had realized that bitter truth while crossing the roads. But I did not know that this city was this bad when it comes to traffic, I felt the pinch of it only when I found it very hard to ride and wade my way through the traffic and criss-crossing lanes.
People laugh at me when they see me wearing helmet, waiting for a traffic signal to go green, or if I wait for a pedestrian to cross the road.
