I have grown indifferent to reading papers and watching news. Hail politicians for this. The politicians this time have crossed all the boundaries insulting their fellow counterparts. Pulling each others legs, abusing and an evil intent to kill the rivals has become a routine occurrence this elections. However, despite this fact one has to understand the importance of voting in a democracy. We’ll have to choose someone from this lot only, so no other option. A voter of this democracy has completely lost his confidence in the language, speech and the leaders themselves. Presently, no political party can claim that they haven’t disappointed the citizens. Every party has. Every leader has.<br /><br />16 is far and God knows what all is yet to come. The elections are more or less a joke with no firm values, no manifesto, no ideology and obviously no politics. Interestingly, these aspiring Prime Ministers firmly assert their election. Sadly, what if these incompetent people take the highest seat? I say, we shouldn’t lose hope. Lawlessness would one day maybe lead to a better path and yield responsible inhabitants.<br /><br />I’m busy with ‘Jail’ presently and will be off to Karjat for an outdoor shoot. It would be like living in Mumbai and still being away; away from the crowd and hassles and lawlessness. Also, I’ll try to use my right to vote with sincerity as this is the only right which WE can fully utilize. I ask everyone not to go by the party name and candidature whatsoever and only vote for the person’s work and character.<br /><br />With this<br />Love<br />Yours<br />Manoj Bajpayee</span>Manoj Bajpayeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02369346061375348181noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4378501527841815983.post-52891759490738905512008-11-30T19:10:00.004+05:302008-11-30T19:21:13.227+05:30The intoxicated protectorNothing except anger and resentment is in my mind, at this point and time. What to say? What to write? Can the act done be erased? It could have been stopped. Will everything be fine now? Now all we can do is, hope. There’s no place for trust now.<br /><br />Debates have started on the television; newspapers are busy writing reactions and editorials. Everyone seems interested in charity and help. It all seems to be a joke now, on which you don’t even feel like laughing. It has happened a lot many times before and keeps on repeating itself. People died in herds. But unfortunately, the politicians are oblivious as usual, may be they didn’t lose their family. They are still giving speeches and blaming because they are always under cover.<br /><br />We are worried inside the four walls of our households and the protector of the house is sitting inside the house, drunk, making a joke of everyone.<br /><br />My heart has ached a thousand times by those sad scenes and I am numb now. Can I be a proud citizen of this Nation? A Nation where no one wants to take the responsibility of its citizens’ security. In Mumbai, people were killed like the way goats are slaughtered. Lamentable..!!! Terrible this is…<br /><br />I have just pain in my heart. Words are failing me now. I’ll be able to talk more only in my next post. I pay my gratitude to Hemant Karkare, Ashok Kamte, Vijay Salaskar, Sandeep Unnikrishnan and Gajendra. May their souls rest in peace and may God give strength to their families in such time of trouble and pain. I am silent at this time of agony and pray for the peace of the demised. May God give their families courage to stand and live. <br /><br />We need to learn a lesson from all this.<br /><br />Love<br />Yours<br />Manoj BajpayeeManoj Bajpayeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02369346061375348181noreply@blogger.com7
