Do we need a Hitler?

Image
Do we need a Hitler? People living under military junta knows the value of freedom. People living in democratic nations do not understand the importance of freedom. Its easy to say , we need strong rules so society will function better , but actually following the rules is much more difficult for the same people. Do the politicians living in such democratic nations know the value of freedom or understand what republic or democracy means? India is constantly running towards the valley of self destruction arranged by our great (?) politicians. Whatever they are saying: India is shining, we will become biggest economy in the world, we are advanced in science and armaments, we have young force available, But truth we all know. Face is shining; legs are getting eaten by maggots. Corruption is increasing like virus of aids or cancer, no new fighter planes, no new sea plane carriers, no new submarines, no new artillery guns, no new army equipments… all because ...

Yezdi D 250 Classic: 1982 Model by Ideal Jawa Company

Image
First Look I was searching for Jawa / Yezdi or other rare and vintage models from last few months and the search was getting difficult as very less vehicles are available now a days. Scraping these vehicles is a profitable business as scrap venders are getting profited by selling loose parts of these vehicles then selling whole bike. Non availability of documents is also a major problem and the main reason behind scrapping the vehicles, as these (Jawa, Yezdi) vehicles are mainly available in villages and due to negligence loosing documents is a common problem. Non availability or spare parts and low mileage is another problem. Need Some Kicking,...

Long term Memory Loss

Image
Long Term Memory Loss While reading my blog, one will ask the question, why I always write about Pollution, Corruption and population? From my side answer is very simple- These are the three problems of today and will be the biggest problem of tomorrow. Talking about Corruption, why it is growing day by day? Why there is control on it? If you remember corruption was there before freedom and after freedom also. Only the freedom fighters were more alert and, they were having more respect and love towards our motherland India. At that time the idols of people were Bhagat Singh, Netaji, Gandhiji etc. (Today also the followers are there, but I do not know about the level of scarifies) As freedom fighters are perishing one by one, there is no control on new politicians. The freedom fighters saw the cruelty of British and they were very much aware of importance of Freedom and its price. New politicians suffered for nothing while gaining the access in ruling the government. With it the inspira...

Our Delhi

Waiting for the prey, Croc in Delhi Zoo. Looks Like a politician waiting for a comman man As now I am living in Delhi from last few months I would like to share the difference and resemblance between any big city in Maharashtra and Delhi. We can list down following points: A) Similarities: 1) The cream areas are well maintained, neat and clean 2) The outer areas / newly added areas are not maintained properly. 3) Work of flyovers is always slow, which invites lots of traffic jam. 4) Policemen are same (As everywhere) or a little more arrogant in Delhi. 5) People try to obey the rules where it is strictly observed, otherwise hell with it. 6) Goods carriers (Vehicles) running on diesel make same pollution and you will find them always overloaded. 7) People love to spit everywhere 8) People love to throw garbage everywhere. 9) Politicians are same, living for own sake and not caring for the people. 10) Electricity problem is same, especially in summer season. 11) Summer is very hot, win...
