Whats becoming of our Democracy???

Firstly, I am using this page as the platform for this post... that is coz my page unfortunately doesnt have as many hits as this page does. And also I have to contribute my part being the co conributor of the page.

Anyways- So lets come back to the original question that is posed by the post. What is becoming of the world's largest democracy......???? For the record.... the entire structure of our democracy sits upon The Constitution of Our Country. Our constitution guarantees us some rights and ofcourse with the boundations of the duties that have been provided.
These rights and duties were laid down specifically for a reason that is to protect the soveriegnity and democracy of such a large country as ours. Recent laws and drafts that have come into light made me sit down and think... that how in the world are these helping us safe guard democracy of all the things???

As if the moral policing in the parks and the censor certificates weren't enough, The new proposal is all set to put all the adult type of programmes in in the after 11 pm slot. Ok that is agreeable... most of the households anyways have parents and grand parents watching Ekta Kapoor soaps any ways....

But the new draft that the Information and Broadcasting Ministry has put down... is either a huge joke or is gonna make mockery of our system anyways. According to the new code of conduct.... there would be no sting operations on TV, no spoofs on politicians and voilence will go out of the great indian soaps.
Imagine... in our country- Where media has become so important... will such restrictions help or worsen the situation??? Alright.... media reports often are exageratted but what isnt.... the promises that our politicians make every elections are exageratted... but have we edver asked for regularization??? In India- Media plays a very important role to form public opinion. And now that the general public is slowly waking up from the slumber of being dumb, a step like this would surely make our regime look everything else but democratic.

Beware- bloggers.... soon we would become a covert organization...because we speak..oops write too much and write too loud...soon there would be a code of conduct here too....!!!

Wow...it certainly feels good!

I just cudn't stop myself from writing about it. Nothing much, it's just that, for the first time in my life, I got asked for a visitor's card of my own! Wow...it feels good to be working...although it's true that, at times, all the pressure just squeezes the juice outta you..hehe!! :-P

Phew! It's been a tough & tiring day. To start off, there has been this project that I'm working on, courtesy Crompton Greaves. Have been working on it right since 7 in the morning. Then in the evening, I suddenly got this urge of zap up my desktop a li'l bit. The hordes of icons on my desktop had been upsetting my moods for quite some time, now. And since I'd re0installed my Windows XP just about a week ago, I was getting bored by the unexciting default blue theme. So, spent the whole evening sprucing things up. And well...here comes the finished product for you to check out. What do you say? Like it? Chenged the icons et al as well, but didn't get any of those screenshots.

Ban The "Crooked" Police!!

The very first time I heard this track, I've become an ardent fan of Blaaze. The song has a very strong message and moreover, the very way they created this video is just great! Have been searching for the lyrics for one whole months and finally got it! Here it goes -

[Blaaze]
Me Remember When Me Was A Little Boy
Me Ya Wanna To Be A Police Man.
Me Ya Wanna To Wear In The Uniform
And Serve All Of The People.
But The Times They Changed
And Nothing Is The Same
And We Wonderin' Why It Had To Be Ya
That The People There Might Said
That The Fate Got Away
And Nothing Around It But It Seems Aa

Just A Few Memories To Live With...

Days in Mumbai!

Sitting in office right now. Office…as in…I’ve been doing my summer internship in Crompton Greaves Ltd, Quality Assurance department, Kanjur Marg, Mumbai, for the past 1 week. As of now, my job was to develop a software for CGL that will catalogue all newly acquired instruments, worth around 5 crores, and their readings database in Materials Testing & Calibration Laboratory. Last Saturday, Mr. Abhijit Shinde, my mentor, dragged me to the PR division where I got the idea of how orders for transformers, worth crores of rupees, are taken from their high profile customers. Then today, I got the job of figuring out every component used in a transformer and then conduct extensive research on the transformer oil. I’m supposed to conduct experiments on various types of oils, monitor them right since purchase, grade them as per their quality and prepare reports on them. So basically, I have loads onto my platter now. I leave home everyday at 7:15 am and reach back at anytime between 7pm and 10pm. Wanna know about the icing on the cake? It’s full day on Saturdays too! L The only silver lightning on the job profile is that I’m getting paid for my work & that I have a job interview scheduled at the end of my intern. So, that means, I also stand the chance of re-joining college for the 7^th Semester with a job in my pocket!

Well, that’s precisely how life’s been going on, for me. Anyways, it’s well past lunch time now and I’m pretty hungry.

Adios!
