Greetings!

I was quite surprised to find an invitation in my email inbox to write and contribute to this blog. A blog i hadn't seen before and moderators and contributors who i do not know. I was in 2 minds and unsure if i should accept or not, but a look through the blog made me realise that all this while i have wanted to do something for the country and voice my opinions. How can i refuse when i get this chance? So here i am; a contributor to this blog. I'd like to thank the moderators for inviting me and also assure them that i'll do my best to write as much as i can.

On an introductory note: I'm currently working towards getting into an MBA college and i love writing. To know more about me you can visit my other blogs! :)

Thanx once again!

Debate : Do the ends justify the means...

Note : Give it all a fair thought before you jot down... Flaming and religion-bashing will not be tolerated. Your participation is gladly appreciated. I dunno if you folks remember this incident; a couple of yrs back, the UPSC exam had a question where the emainee had to assert his views on *revolutionary terrorism* initiated by Bhagat Singh. As is typical of the government, hue and cry was not far behind... Anyway, let us look at some facts -   Bhagat Singh was an atheist, considered to be one of the earliest Marxist in India and in line with hi thinking, he renamed the Hindustan Republican Party and called it the Hindustan Socialist Revolutionary Party. Bhagat Finally, awaiting his own execution for the murder of Saunders, Bhagat Singh at the young age of 24 studied Marxism thoroughly and wrote a profound pamphlet “Why I am an Atheist.” which is an ideological statement in itself. The circumstances of his death and execution are worth recounting. Although, Bhagat Singh had a...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

India’s Most Dangerous Serial Killer Shankariya Kanpatimar by Rakesh Goswami- Book Review- The Story That Questions India’s Justice System

India’s Most Dangerous Serial Killer Shankariya Kanpatimar Book Review ? This review explores India’s Most Dangerous Serial Killer Shankariya Kanpatimar by Rakesh Goswami . Drawing from police files and interviews, the book reconstructs brutal murders while exposing failures in policing, hierarchy, and recognition. It leaves readers questioning not just the killer, but the system that allowed him to continue. What unsettles you more. The crime itself, or the quiet ways a system fails to stop it? You pick up a true crime book hoping for clarity. A beginning. A middle. An end that explains everything neatly. A name, a motive, a resolution you can carry back into your ordinary life. But some stories refuse to behave. India's Most Dangerous Serial Killer Shankariya Kanpatimar, written by Rakesh Goswami, does not offer comfort. It offers something far more unsettling. It gives you facts. Then it lets those facts sit in silence. You begin reading about a man who killed. Almost invisibly...
