When you say, "I love India".

Is your love for India or yourself ?

Republic day is around the corner.

Is it the celebration of virtual Democracy or real Oligarchy?

Justice Krishna has showered his magic on Telangana.

Does any one know the difference between a state's separation, bifurcation and reorganisation ?

Anyway, what shall i call the process of claiming an existed state ?

As per congress, our national scams are either real fictions or fictional realities.

Hope, they have clarity regarding what they have achieved on 15 Aug, 1947. May be, they have been executing 'Royality' till now.

Binayak sen has been sentenced as per the law.

Is it the end of natural and social justice or dawn of  Neo-Aristo-Monarchy?

Wikileaks may be useful for many nations but not for india.

Here, it doesnt matter whether things happen in open or they get opened after happening.

When the scams spilled like crude oil,

Had they disturbed the nation or 

the nation had disturbed the scam flow?

When the candle blew off....

Had the air disturbed the candle or 

the candle smoke disturbed the air ?

Esteem

Since childhood, Karthik is more attached to the patriotic fervours .....

The words tricolor, anthem, slogans, martyrs, revolution, sacrifice and independence, always use to reflect in his paintings.

His painting on 1857 revolt has won him accolades from everyone in the school.

Strangely, till now, he has never attended August15 or January 26 ceremonial celebrations. 

His budding integrity and blossoming instinct makes him to strongly believe that the ONE best way to salute the tricolour is ONLY through right hand.

Independence

Like all children in the primary school,  Karthik has got affinity for flag hoisting celebrations.

It is obvious that what matters for him more is the sweets distribution .

The day has come.

After the completion of all flag rituals and national formalities, the sweets distribution has started and so is Karthik's enthusiasm .

The distribution has ended but still his hands are empty .

He is not sure whether the reason is the school wall or his balloon business.

Celebrations

The blood on the stone is still fresh, wet and shining...

There are some flowers with kumkum and haldi on their petals...

The holy sacred chants are about to end while the head priest is offering the prasad along with the axe...

The blood drops are falling down slowly from the axe ...

The festival has started ...

but few minutes ago, the same blood drops have sprung out from the neck of a three months old girl child ...

Reap

One more crop failure will send her into the suicide abyss.

Rajamma shows little interest in the now stunted orange trees.

In her, they evoke only the worst of memories.
Their farm headed for its third straight year of failure. 

“I don't care about it,” she says, “if the trees die.”
What she did care about, already did.

Her son Shekar took his life less than a week ago, making her life more stunted than the trees.
