Lets Go

-
Let us go towards that far away horizon, so that I can see you clearly in the sunlight, for the world blurs in my eyes your true beauty, by illuminating you with all that fake light.

Let us go towards that clear blue sky, so that I can breathe in your fragrance, for the smells of the world tend to screen from me that which is your true essence.

Let us go towards the mouth of the river so that I can truly feel you, as the mud and grit tend to hide from me your skin's true touch, your body's vigour

Let us go towards the the ends of the garden of Eden, so that I can relish you truly, for all the world's tastes have obscured my tongue to your true your true taste, your true flavour

I know we cannot run away from the world but we can definitely hide in its corners, for there is nothing more in this world that I want than you being with me forever.

The Senseless Obsession with a Uniform Civil Code - Hindus Will be Net Losers

Once again, the bogey of Uniform Civil Code (UCC) has come to the forefront of political deliberations. UCC is being seen as some kind of panacea for a variety of problems that the Hindus face in India. The worst part is that many right minded Hindus seriously believe that UCC will be some kind of game changer in this country. This, when fact remains that UCC does nothing to solve the challenges of Hindus and their second class status in India. Nevertheless, one must realise that UCC does more harm to Hindus than good, and a few good and solid reasons exist for this.  For this, let us have a look at what is being pushed for in the Uttarakhand draft of the UCC bill. As per twitter discussions, these are the thirteen key features of the bill: 1: Polygamy will be banned. 2: The age of marriage of girls will be increased so that they can graduate before marriage. 3: Declaration of live in relationship will be necessary. Parents will be informed. 4: In succession, girls will get an equal sh

Nahida Imtiaz After She Returned Home in 1991 (courtesy: India Today) Those following the issue of terrorism in the Kashmir valley may recall the infamous 1989 kidnapping of Rubaiyya Sayeed, the daughter of then Home Minister of India and later Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir Mufti Mohammad Sayeed. The harrowing episode had resulted in the release of hardcore militants of the Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF). However, little is discussed about another kidnapping that had happened, just two years later. The target this time was another prominent Kashmiri politician – Saifuddin Soz. THE TURBULENT SCENARIO On 27 February 1991, the Jammu and Kashmir Students' Liberation Front (JKSLF) kidnapped Nahida Imtiaz, the daughter of Saifuddin Soz. The JKSLF demanded the release of five terrorists put in jail by the security forces. At the time, Saifuddin Soz was a prominent leader of the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference led at the time by Farooq Abdullah. The JKNC h

खैट - एक प्रसंग

"भुला! ये खैट पर्वत किस ओर पड़ेगा?" उस लड़के ने ऐसे देखा, मानो साँप सूँघ गया। "मुझे नहीं पता," इतना कहकर वो एकदम तेज़ी से चलने लगा, और क्षण भर में भाग कर अदृश्य सा हो गया। दीपक और उसका मित्र वरुण दोनो ने यह निर्णय किया था के वो अंधविश्वास के विरुद्ध मुहिम छेड़ेंगे। दिल्ली में विज्ञान विषय पढ़ने के बाद उनका दैवीय शक्ति, भूत, अभिचार, इन सब को संदेह से देखना आम बात थी। फिर क्या था -, सत्यशोधन समाज की सदस्यता लेकर उन्होंने जगह जगह जाकर अंधविश्वास के विरुद्ध जागरूकता फैलाने का काम शुरू किया। अभी भी कॉलेज में ही थे, लेकिन शेष समय में जगह जगह जाकर समाज का काम करना उनकी पहचान बन गया था। "कमाल है," वरुण ने एक सिगरेट निकाली और लाइटर से सुलगा कर एक कश भरा। "तीसरा व्यक्ति है, जो बिन बताए चला गया," यह कहकर वरुण ने सिगरेट को दीपक के साथ साझा किया। दीपक ने उस सिगरेट से एक कश भरा, और लौटा दिया। टिहरी के खैट की यह यात्रा बहुत ही कठिन होती जा रही थी। यातायात की समस्या, फिर सड़क की दुर्घटनाएं, ऊपर से लोगों का असहयोग। सब कुछ ही देख लिया था, लेकिन चलो, ऐसा ही होता है
