Can we miss any of them?


It has really been long time I have visited this space. I have too many things that deserve to be posted but really not sure what to post and what not to post. Simply to say there were lot of things that made news in the last few days and deserved to be posted but I found much similar opinions on lot of websites and lost interest to post here after reading them. There have been news all around and every item deserved to be talked; soft- spoken Greg and presumptuous Ganguly were first news makers and 1 Billion people can talk and talk after all it is just Cricket. Unfortunately, all is not that well as it seem to be in the Indian cricket dressing room. Discipline is something that Eden Gardens can't maintain and Frenzied Calcutta Cricket fans did their best to maintain the record and be in news for wrong reasons.

Politics got all the coverage it deserved; only difference this time is there are few good things that happened. Lalu is voted out of power is probably one good thing that happened to those Biharis who are jealous of Development in other states in India.

Fire brand Uma Bharathi was behind the scenes for very long time and she exploded like a volcano when BJP chose Singh, not supported by Uma, to be CM of Madhya Pradesh.

What can one say about baby boy Natwar Singh? He is only known to be an author, bureaucrat, foreign affairs expert, politician but actor in him was at his best when he denied his involvement as said in the Volker report. One should have seen him speak to media after the report was made public. It is hard not to believe that he was involved. As usual, we already have a commission formed to investigate the involvement of Natwar and the commission is given 3 Months period to complete the investigation. If we just recollect any commission, we are made to believe that the 3 Months would be extended even if the investigation is done after all the Ex-bureaucrat will enjoy all the benefits in the capacity of chair-persron of the commission. When Govt. demands for reasons that are very clear, an amended report will be made public and that would be discussed in parliament. We are fed up with commissions set up by ruling Govt.s to probe into immoral functioning of its own ministers.
A news hungry country like ours can not miss any of the items. You talk to anyone these days and you are certain that one of these will be debated. We just can't miss.
