Fancy dress competitions used to be held in schools and colleges so far. students used to dress up like Bhagat Singh, Subhash Chandra Bose and other national leaders shout Jai Hind get uploaded for the performance and win hearts. But one cannot become those leaders the moment you wear the dress. Once you get down from the stage you have to change it. Ok app does not make you a believer of Bose like the broom will not make you were Gandhi follower and the short does not make you the Iron Man like Patel. if one believes all these metaphors can make them great leaders it would best be called an Illusion of a fertile mind.
Amritsar witnessed many dead bodies in the name of Ramleela celebrations. Those who went to burn effigy of Ravana lie dead themselves. North India has a tradition of burning Ravan Refugee around Dasara. They burn Ravan's effigy to show the victory of good over evil. This practice has been on since many centuries. This is a celebration of Rama's triumph over Ravan. The whole event is called Ramleela. This Amritsar tragedy seems to show of we keep our evils and irresponsibilities alive, no Rama can save us and we cannot destroy any Ravan on the outside.

Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said he will not fight electoral elections anymore. He had said the same when he was the Chief Minister as well. At a time when Siddaramaiah seemed inevitable to Congress demand for dalit Chief Minister was created.
Apart from the conventional drought belts such as North Karnataka threat of famine looms large in other parts of the state as well.
Maharashtra government is planning to commemorate Gandhiji on his 150th birth anniversary in a very special way. The government has planned to initiate door delivery of alcohol soon. Excise minister has even issued a statement in this regard. Maharashtra will have the rare distinction of having started something so exquisite among civil services for the first time in the nation. Chief minister Fadnavis has decided to launch this since he does not have anything novel to impress upon people. He has even given a humanitarian reason to his decision. He says that have been many accidents involving drunk people in the recent times. Hence this measure would help check the number of those accidents. Because alcohol has been the main culprit in many incidents.
As expected MJ Akbar has refuted all allegations against him and said he will not resign from his post of union minister. For the moment even Congress is set aside the Rafael scandal and is hell bent upon seeking Akbar's resignation. One cannot rule of the chances of Modi seeking Akbar's resignation to indicate that he cares for the women of India. MJ Akbar is not great asset to BJP. He does not even represent the party with its full values and ideals. He has always been an opportunist who has remained in power since a long time across governments. He has used the same strategy to bag a plum position in BJP trading whatever little loyalty he can claim to have. He has nothing to lose except for that post.
There are certain parameters for news items like rape and harassments to be considered as newsworthy in the media. The incident should have happened in Delhi or some part of north India. Victims must be from upper middleclass and if they work in IT or BT it’d be even better. The news would get even more prominence if the survivors are working and belong to upper caste.
The last state assembly election had thrown up unexpected results. Some of the important ones on that are Siddaramaiah's charisma losing its charm, BJP getting highest number of seats and HDK becoming the CM even with least seats in the assembly.Even BSP which had entered into an agreement with JDS bagged a seat. Most respected and adored Dalit leader from Kollegal N Mahesh was elected. This is a major milestone for BSP which barely had any presence in the state. The party was excited about one of their own candidates becoming a Minister. This could have been a major opportunity for the party to create a base for itself in the state.
Narendra Modi government came into power assuring generation of two crore jobs. It has been more than four and a half years ever since, and even twenty lakh jobs were not generated in these many years, annually.
The comic staging of sweeping the roads on the occasion of 150th commemoration of Gandhi Jayanthi. Modiji pretended to sweep the road himself and tried creating awareness among people.
