Since few years back, "end of ideology" is the term mostly used by the social activists and intellectuals of this country to depict the compromise in terms of one's own ideology. When many of the politicians as well as social workers are turning to the regressive parties from their former organizations, anyone might think that they're distancing themselves from their own beliefs. Firstly, we'll understand the ideology of the majority population of the the Hindus in India. As a result of religion and their orthodox beliefs, we know that most of them are the followers of  varnashrama  & caste system, which is the base of Hinduism. The sacred books of Hinduism preaches patriarchy, conspiracy & violence, which they call it as spirituality. Even if a modern Hindu person, who have embraced the western culture for his/her lifestyle, will not leave behind his so called tradition. The root cause of this issue is an act / culture / teachings / beliefs of "not...

I'm having a feeling that I live in some terrorist occupied city. Everywhere bombs are exploding, experiencing breathing issues due to air pollution as I've also suffered from chronic sinusitis, many of us have started blood pressure issues due to noise pollution. Some retards are bursting bombs at every dawn around 5 o'clock everywhere. Yesterday, I was in sleep at around 5:30am dreaming something horror & suddenly a bomb explodes in front of my house! I woke up in panic & my heart was beating extremely fast at abnormal rate like I'm suffering from tachycardia. When I went in my balcony, a 28-year-old stupid boy was 'enjoying the explosions' alone. I think we, i.e. our social workers, environmental activists, politicians & everyone have failed in creating awareness in society about the pollution, harm, stress, etc. in festivals like diwali. Plus, some senseless people are creating a culture of bursting crackers in early morning, when others are...

[या लेखात मी अनेक प्रश्नचिन्हे वापरली आहेत. त्याला माझं आश्चर्य, प्रश्न किंवा विधान; काहीही समजू शकता.]  बरेच दिवस झाले काहीच लिहिलं नाही. काही सुचतच नव्हतं आणि वेळही मिळाला नाही. पण प्रत्येक गोष्टीचं निरीक्षण मात्र केलं. अचानक आता त्या सगळ्या गोष्टी आठवल्या. दोन दिवसांपूर्वी मुंबईतल्या बोरीवली नॅशनल पार्कमध्ये गेलो होतो. फार मोठे आर्कीओलॉजीस्ट डॉ. सुरज पंडित आमच्या सोबत होते. सर्वात पहिल्याच गुहेमध्ये ते आम्हाला माहिती सांगत असताना एक सुशिक्षित बेशिस्त कुटुंब तिथे आलं. त्या लहान मुलांनी तर तिथे धुमाकूळ घातला होता, आणि सरांनी त्यांना समजावण्याचा प्रयत्न केला तर ते लोक ऐकतच नव्हते; म्हणजे मुलं एकपट आणि पालक दुप्पट, अशी गत होती. त्यांचं बोलणं इंग्रजीत चाललं होतं, यावरून ते सुशिक्षित आहेत असा भास झाला, पण त्याच इंग्रजीतून त्यांनी त्यांचं खरं शिक्षण दाखवलं. मग पुढे सरांनी त्यांना गप्प करून तिथून घालवलं आणि म्हणाले "People are urbanized but not civilized". हे वाक्य मला फार सुंदर व महत्वाचं वाटलं. आपण ज्या ठिकाणी, ज्या गावात, शहरात, राज्यात, प्रांतात, देशात, प्रदेशात राहतो, तिथली...

Most women in India don't know that their present property rights were first proposed by Dr Ambedkar in Hindu Code Bill 1951 which was rejected by Nehru. Because of this tussle, Dr Ambedkar resigned from the Law Ministry, not in the capacity of a "Dalit icon" as propounded by false media today but as a true nationalist whose ideas belonged to 21st century. The property rights of women were ultimately recognised by the government in the form of Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act 2005, 54 years after Dr Ambedkar introduced it. Share it so that this fact comes into the knowledge of every woman in this country.
