Of late there is a fashion for the heros to dance with their lungis lifted which is nauseating.  The dance directors seem to have gone bereft of fresh ideas and hence have lifted the steps from the dancers dancing in front of any dead body and imported it to their films and get paid in lakhs. The directors also have a penchant for this lungi lifting dances.  Our Tamil cinemas are thriving on vulgarity what with the powerful Sun pictures taking over entire distributionship and doing a marketing blitz often showing these dances frequently corrupting young minds.  Hope this trend will change for the better. 

Year after year for 61 years we have been showcasing our military might on 26th Jan.  Whether this exercise is needed at all? What a colossal waste of money?  It was good immediately after we became republic.  Now after six decades we can do away with it.  Only cultural programmes can be held.  Will our administrators think?

Our whole society is a male dominated society.  The wife prostrates before the husband.  Sometimes eats only after the husband completes eating.  The wife always take a back seat.  Even the religious poojas are male oriented.  Whether it is KarvaChuth in the North or Garuda Panchami or varalakshmi vritham in the South it is the wife who prays for the welfare and longivity of the husband.  Why can't there be any puja where the husband prays for the welfare and longivity of his wife?  Now I think there is some change.  Let this continue.  Both the husband and wife are equal there should be no oneupmanship.

Recently I saw a photograph where an office bearer of AIADMK fell flat at the feet of Ms.Jayalalitha to seek her blessings.  The concept of falling at the feet of somebody does not go well with me.  Why should people fall at the feet of somebody?.  After all we are all human beings and all are equal .Why fall at another's feet.?  If at all we should prostrate it should be only before God not anybody else.  If somebody falls at our feet our ego gets bloated. Let us give our ego a go.  Let us change.

I do not understand why Shri A.Raja, former telecom minister did not get the award.  He did great public service by making people aware of the massive scale of corruption in Telecom. People have become aware of the magical figure of Rs.176000 crores.  For creating awareness among the public Shri A. Raja should have been honoured with Padma Shri.

By burning alive the Additional Collector of Nashik District Yashwant Sonawane the oil mafia has once again proved that they are above law.  Earlier in 2005 in Karnataka an officer Shri Manjunath was burth alive.  Shri Sathyendra Dubey was murdered by the land mafia in Bihar.  The Governments both at the State and the Centre are clearly in efficient.  They do nothing except raise the usual noises.

BJP leaders march to J&K to hoist the National flag at Lal chowk has come as a damp squib.  The leaders well know that they would be stopped and just to get political mileage marched to Lal Chowk.  As expected they were stopped and kept under custody.  The leaders have got their mileage required.  By stopping these leaders the Congress has also got political mileage.  They have proved to the Muslims in Kashmir that they would always support them.  Omar Abdullah and Mahbooba Mufti by condemning this march have showed that they are solidly behind the extremists in Kashmir.  On the whole nobody works for the people for Kashmir.  At this rate the Kashmir problem will go on till this world exists.
