Sudden Turn of Events

There is sudden turn of events!! Obviously, the heat of the Nuclear Deal has worn out and it has been dumped as a toxic waste by both opposition, Left and the ruling party. Whatever is happening in the background, is unknown, and the people who play the emotional cards in every game are handed over with the scapegoat tag again.

Now there is a new tagline going out there, Ram-Sethu, since, we don't want to delve into this matter too much, the fact remains that the force which wants the project to be completed are politicians, the forces which are against are the politicians (may be for all the wrong reasons). But the core of the problem such as the fisherman getting affected or how this is going to affect the ships coming to the chennai port.

One thing is clear for Left or the Opposition, the game is to destabilize the government on totally baseless issues. For left it was the name America itself which became the crux of its issues, and for the opposition, it is the work RAM, which works like a charm.

Religion should never play in politics in a secular country, but there cannot be a rule against it, can it ??. Only the people have to realize, its all politics and there is no passion for anyone towards any religion. In this race to power, people become scapegoats, now and then and will be in future too. Only education and by far the knowledge in worldly matters can avoid this. But in our country not being pious and following a particular religion becomes such a sin, that you become a extremist who is banned by your own community, relatives, home and even your parents.

I believe there is still room for a world free of any kind of discrimination (based on money, religion, color or anything else). One thing I more like about the StarTrek series is the camaraderie shown by people from various planets and how they battle out their common enemy (those who want to create the discrimination).

That day may not be more near, but it is the hope for such a day which should enthuse us to live for it.
