Instead of behaving like savages & bursting loud crackers that terrify animals how about we learn from our neighbour Nepal on how we can actually do puja…
Love you Nepal for this…
A heartening comment from my friend, RAdm Sampath Pillai, which bears wide dissemination:
“The USA has elected the first Muslim senator (Abdul El-Sayed of Michigan), the first Black woman governor (Keisha Lance Bottoms of Georgia), the first openly gay senator (Chris Pappas of New Hampshire), the first Latinx governors elected in Texas (Gina Hinojosa) and California (Xavier Becerra), the first woman governor of Ohio (Amy Acton), the first Black governors of Florida (Byron Donalds) and Wisconsin (David Crowley) and the first Indigenous American woman governor (Deb Haaland of New Mexico). The hate so many opposition candidates tried to spew about religion, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and other forms of social identity didn’t work last night and I feel so much hope.”
Socio-economic cum environmental wisdom from a taxi driver in a Lucknow traffic jam:
Me: क्या मेट्रो बनने से ट्रैफिक की स्तिथि में सुधार नहीं हुआ?
Taxi driver: नहीं सर, लोग मेट्रो avoid करते हैं
Me: क्यूँ?
Taxi driver: मेट्रो में पान सुपारी खाने वालों को थूकने में दिक्कत होती है! 🥹
I propose the government launch a new scheme called the Bharat Army Quality Works Amendment Scheme (BAQWAS).
Under BAQWAS, the government should take over all golf courses (or ,"environmental park and training areas") of the armed forces.
Then they should build Theaters on them, where people can go and watch films and plays.
With this we can achieve Theaterization of the Armed Forces.
There is no problem that cannot be solved by BAQWAS.
