LOTUS next to the POTUS.
_____________________________
In this battle of perception on who is better between Biden/trump, Tejaswi/Nitish, it is the common man who is the biggest loser.
__________________________
Ulta Nationalist believes that Trump is the friend of India so he should win whereas the ultra humanist believes Biden to be a Liberal Humanist so he should win.
A Secular Indian thinks that Tejaswi will stand for the rights of every Bihari, whereas Nitish is an ally of the right-wing ideology.
In this battle of perception, We believe that we have taken the right stand in the best interest of our country/people/religion/humanity etc.
What we fail to understand is what we think matters only to the extent the leader gets elected to the office. Once he is on the chair, he becomes an agent of various powerful forces and lobbies.
It might be a Biden or Trump a Tejasvi or a Nitish Dear AAM Janata please do not get carried away.

Recently a tamil friend called me to extend vijaya dashmi greetings while doing so she squeezed in the topic of kamal harris to flaunt how she is the daughter of her maternal uncles wifes cousins cousin.
Every second tamilian i know is her distant relative now.
Celebrations on Kamala Harris election are reasonable in Tamilnadu, as the person of their descent has reached the second-highest position of the most powerful country on the earth is worth taking pride.
The most important thing is Kamal Harris should be loyal and serving the interests of the country and people who voted her to power even if that sometimes is observed as working against India.
Kamala The LOTUS is an American representative an ardent supporter of human rights, but the right-wing in India can take some solace in the fact that there is a LOTUS next to the POTUS.

Arnab Goswami never sounded like a journalist to me.
He always appeared like a very talented actor, who is suitable for doing high decibel dialogue delivery based movies, he is the Sunny Deol of television news just like sunny was in Damini and Gadar.
One thing he is very good at is catering to gossip-mongering audiences like us. We want some masala stories all the time, and these gossip drugs are served by Arnab and Team to us.
We don't spare the dead too, ex Sunanda Pushkar, Jhia khan, Sridevi and Sushant.
Vigilantism is good, watchdogs are needed, Activism can aid in delivering justice, but Arnab kind of journalism can only be entertaining and none of the above. Debates cannot be monologues debates cannot be verdicts Debates are not about taking high moral ground.
It is always a HE vs THEM, later twisted into legitimate NEWS for the common man. An overtly Agenda based NEWS driving channel Republic Media Network is. This battle with Mumbai Police is also a personal one.
Dear AAM Janata, please do not get sucked into the internal matter of Arnab and Mumbai police. Arnab is a victim of his own actions, all self goals, totally self-destructive.
Of course, we are missing the 9 pm gossip but meanwhile we can make do with an Anjana Om Kashyap or a deepak chaurasia.
It doesn't mean I support or appreciate the likes of Rajdeep or a Ravish or a Faye Desouza. I watch everyone with the filters on all the time.

The Outrage in France, the churning around the world on the issues of the cartoons vis a vis free speech is something we all should pay attention to.
People who never condemned the breaking of Bamyan Buddhas in Afganistan or the destruction of multiple temples in India or the demolition of Babri Masjid are now expressing their outrage on the cartoons and the killings that followed.
I don't know where to stand on this because it hurts me when someone makes fun of my family or the god I worship, at the same time irrespective of the religious teachings and preachings, I will not go out and behead or kill people for doing the same.
Religious intolerance is a challenge in today's times. Undoubtedly the responsibility will be passed on to educated Muslims to condemn the mullahs who preach violence in the name of God, For any Muslim if ummah is a choice over nationality then the blame for the wrongdoing of a fellow Muslim has to be shouldered by their brethren everywhere.
The silence of good people is more harmful than the violence of radical/fringe groups be it any religion or nation.

Finally the IPL fever is coming to an end, wives across the world can take a breather as the remote control will come back into their hands.
May the best team win but politics is playing a larger part in sports these days so it will not be a surprise if a less deserving team ends up winning.
virat kohli's arrogance, his wife's rants against the veteran sunil gavaskar was uncalled for. I see no sportive spirit in the couple.
How we conduct ourselves when we are at the peak speaks volumes about us.
