The political climate of India in a nutshell

-
India,a collective sigh comes to mind when i bring up my country.
India,a country marred with political dissent,injustice and whatnot.
India,a land of indubitable diversity that had Mughals and The British Raj acquiring immeasurable wealth and spices among other things
India,my chests inevitably swells with pride owing to its richness but let us delve into the harsh political landscape that India provides to its citizens being the largest democracy with mistakes.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and this mine.
Right now,the current trend seems to be the right wing and the left wing ideologies that have spread forth to every nook and cranny and politics of populism seems to be the status quo.Politicizing news has been jput on a pedestal and coalitions are desperately clinging to power.Deftness when it boils down to political matters and blown out of proportion news coverage seems to be ruling the roost.
We have liberals,conformists,extremists and the most endearing term for Congress sycophants-"Chamchas"(insert GIGGLES).
Politicians spewing didactic lecture,brainwashing the public by springing up false hopes,galvanizing the people but to no avail?!If any systemic change needs to be brought in,it is now or never.
Firebrand revolutionaries and the common man alike wanting to bring about change from the grass root level onwards.India is a paradoxical land not just with regard to its distorted politics and fragmented class hierarchy but also due to its very confused multi party system.
False promises aside,you cant deny the passion with which our government servants operate
I am a budding journalist with a keen eye on the goings on of the world and a professional foodie, if that makes any sense. I have a slight interest in photography by dabbling in it and also would like to make the world a better place through the written word.

The Ram Mandir legacy

Will this be untouched by outsiders once its constructed?! Ladies and Gentlemen, i put it to you. The historic Bhumi Pujan thats about to commence in a few short minutes at the heart of Ayodhya. Yes, its a very exciting and celebratory prospect for the vast majority of ardent religious Indians. the way the halls have been decked with such great pomp and fanfare is actually eclipsed by a great deal of controversies and rich historical significance. Will it last in the eyes of god? IS the Bhumi Pujan a new beginning for the history of RamJanmabhoomi? Are we ushering in a new era? 1) The location and name of RamJanmabhoomi: As the name suggest, the land is supposed to be postulated as the birthplace of Lord Ram from the Hindu mythology. So, it is only fitting to pay homage to the deity of Lord Ram by immortalizing a temple in his honour and name.   2) The Ayodhya dispute:In the bygone era, there were numerous temples built on this very favorable stretch of land nestled in Uttar Prade

The rise and tide of startups

A startup, in the most general parlance implies an idea that has grown to become a multi-million dollar industry. Let us take for instance The Silicon Valley, which is nothing but a group of geniuses spearheading or leading a bunch of companies that they co-founded or founded and that global hub attracts all sorts of FDI(Foreign Direct Investment) and thus impacts how we perceive globalization on a whole. Global conglomerates like Amazon,  Google, Microsoft and Apple to name a few have gone on to rule the market space for the next millennial, due to its vast growth rate, employability factors that are only accentuated by the field of computers(sorry, if you wanna work in Amazon or any multinational you solely require a computer science degree,  simple as that). There have also been many factors that seem to go against Amazon's tenets and they are: 1) There have been many warehouse allegations and infringements of stocks shared within the Amazon board members in September 200

The soul of a Kannadiga but the heart of a Sheikh

My exciting and transformative adventure across life starts from the time that I was raised in the Gulf. Yes, the land of immeasurable stocks in astronomical oil rates and an even better addition to the mix -Malayalees(Keralites). Yes, the Gulf is teeming with them(pardon my tone). So, I lived in this archipelago called Bahrain for 11 whole years.Most of  my formative education took place there and in retrospect, nostalgia has enveloped me as I begin to pen this very article. So many memories come flooding past and my teary eyed school reunions are something. that I will always cherish. In this cut throat day and age of technology, I was a very cocooned individual who was extremely hesitant to break forth from his shell, but the friends that I found there were for life. My mixed feelings towards my stay in the Gulf was primarily because of the lack of availability of  good amenities catering to a larger demographic, in this case the influx of Indians there.Me and my conservative,
