తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం లో అతి ప్రవర్తన ( ఇటు , అటు )

అన్ని ఉద్యమాలలో జరిగినట్టే, తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం లో కూడా కాస్త అతి అనేది జరుగుతూ ఉంది ….నేను ప్రత్యెక తెలంగాణా ని ఆమోదిస్తున్నాను and సమర్దిస్తున్నాను ( నా orkut or facebook profile చదివిన వాళ్ళందరికి ఆ సంగతి తెలుసు) కాని, అతి ప్రవర్తన అనేది ఎప్పుడు చిరగ్గానే ఉంటుంది …

September 17 తెలంగాణా విమోచన దినోత్సవం కి కొద్ది రోజులు ముందుగ campus లో పోస్టర్స్ అంటించారు “తెలంగాణా విమోచనమా? విద్రోహమా? “ అని, ఆ పోస్టర్ రాసిన రచయిత ప్రకారం, అసలు నిజాం పాలన నుంచి తెలంగాణా india లో కలవడమే ఒక పెద్ద తప్పిదంట , india లో కలవగానే తెలంగాణా ప్రజలందరూ “గొర్రెలు పోయే, బర్రెలు వచ్చే” అనుకున్నారట …india లో కలిసిన్దగ్గర నుంచే తెలంగాణా కస్టాలు మొదలయ్యయిత….అంటే నిజం పాలనలో, ఆ దొరతనం లోనే ప్రజలు సుఖంగా ఉన్నరనా ? ప్రత్యెక తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం అంటే తెలంగాణా ఒక ప్రత్యెక రాష్ట్రము కోసం ఉద్యమం అనుకున్నాడ లేక తెలంగాణా ఒక ప్రత్యెక దేశం అనుకున్నాడా ? రచయిత నిజాం వంశానికి చెందినా వాదాన్న అయి ఉండాలి, లేదా తెలంగాణా లో దొరతనం కోల్పోయిన కుటుంబానికి చెందినా వాడు అయి ఉండాలి అని నా వూహ …

అసలు ప్రత్యక తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం అంటే భారతదేశం లోంచి విడిపోవడం అన్న feeling ఆంధ్ర వాళ్ళు తీసుకువచ్చారు ….తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం మొదలవ్వగానే, ఉద్యమానికి వ్యతిరేకంగా సమైక్య ఆంధ్ర కోసం అని “devided we fall, jai india” అంటూ నినాదాలు ఇచ్చారు అసలు నినాదం లో india ఎందుకు వచ్చింది ? , తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం కాశ్మీర్ ఉద్యమం లాంటిది కాదు, confustion లో ఉన్నవాల్లకోసం మరోసారి  “మాకు తెలంగాణా రాష్ట్రము కావాలి, తెలంగాణా దేశం కాదు”

తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమాన్ని వ్యతిరేకిస్తూ అప్పట్లో ఆంధ్ర నాయకులూ కొంతమంది ఒక పిచ్చి argument తీసారు , ప్రత్యెక తెలంగాణా వస్తే, మళ్ళి నిజాం పాలన తీసుకువస్తారా అని? ఇది ఒక చెత్త argument అని చెప్పడానికి explanation కూడా అవసరం లేదు కదా

ఇక ఆత్మహత్యల పర్వం సాగింది , యువకులకి ఏమొచ్చిందో తెలియదు కాని, ఉద్యమం కోసం బలిదానం పేరుతో ఆత్మహత్యలు చేసుకోడం మొదలు పెట్టారు, ఆత్మహత్యలు చేసుకున్నవారిని తెలంగాణా వీరులుగా చిత్రీకరించడం జరిగింది, ఒక విద్యార్థి దేవతకి మొక్కుగా ఆత్మహత్య చేసుకోడం దుమారం లేపింది, అప్పటికి నాయకులూ , JAC కళ్ళు తెరిచారు, తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం లోనే అందరు చనిపోతే తెలంగాణా రాష్ట్రము లో ఎవరు ఉంటారు అని ? మొత్తానికి ఆత్మహత్యలు ఆగాయి , లేకపోతే ప్రత్యెక తెలంగాణా రాష్ట్రము లో ఉద్యోగం చేయడానికి యువత ఉండేది కాదు, మళ్ళి పక్క రాష్ట్రము నుంచి ఆంధ్ర వాలు ఉద్యోగం కోసం వచ్చి ఉండే వాళ్ళు !!!

ఉద్యమం అనేది అదుపు తప్పి హింసాత్మక సంఘటనలు జరగడం అనేది ప్రతి ఉద్యమం లో గమనిస్తూ ఉన్నదే ….అలానే తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం లో తెలంగాణా రావాలి అని ఇక్కడ బస్సులు తగలబెట్టడం జరిగింది, పోటి పది ఆంధ్రా ప్రజలు అక్కడ కూడా బస్సులు తగలబెట్టి బంద్ పాటించారు, ఇక్కడ బస్సులు తగలబెట్టడం లో అర్థం ఉంది …..అక్కడ ఎందుకు తగలబెట్టారు , ఏమి వస్తుందని తగలబెట్టారు అనేది గమనించాల్సిన విషయం .

లగడపాటి అతి ప్రవర్తన గురించి చెప్పక్కర్లేదు, అందరికి తెలిసిందే అది ..

latest అతి ప్రవర్తన O.U లో పొట్టి శ్రీరాములు బొమ్మని తగలపెట్టడం , అసలు తెలంగాణా ఆంధ్రా లో కలిసినపుడు అయన బ్రతికి కూడా లేడు, మద్రాస్ presidency నుంచి ఆంధ్రా విదిపోవాలనేది అయన ఉద్యమ లక్ష్యం ….తెలంగాణా కి ఏదో చెడు చెయ్యడం కాదు , తెలుగు వాళ్ళందరూ ఒక్క రాష్ట్రంగా ఉండాలి అనేది, అప్పటి ఇరువైపులా నాయకులూ అంగీకరించిందే…..కాని కలిసి ఉండటం కన్నా విదిపోతేనే అభివృద్ధి ఉంటుంది అనే నమ్మకం తో మొదలయింది తెలంగాణా ఉద్యమం , ఈ ఉద్యమం లో అయన విగ్రహాలు తగలబెట్టడం అనవసరం , పెట్రోల్ దండగ .

Earthquakes in our area!!

On the friday night people in our area heard some unknown sounds and there was a rumour about earthquakes.  Well, I didnt hear anything, and i came to know about those on  the later day in the news channel and our relatives called us to enquire our safety. That day there was a commotion near temple with TV channels vans and few police. When enquired, an old man told us that tv channels were there to cover the earthquake story. Our area is a nice and calm place which usually wont attract media attention. Lot of cameramen were there so people surrounded them, and kids were waving at the camera. With all this hungama geological department installed equipment in our area to check if its really the earthquakes which caused the anonymous sounds. This is the story of Saturday.

On sunday night i went out to market by walk, the moon light is great , the weather is cool, so i walked a lot and by the time i reach home my relatives scared my mom about the earthquakes and made her stand outside for sometime. They have got the news that there are few more earthquakes in our area and tv channels broadcasting that people are panicked and running on the streets. I switched on the TV to watch a commotion of people and few kids  waving at the camera in broad day light. That was the video coverage from the saturday. At the time, they were broadcasting that coverage, people were eating mirchi from the nearby sweetshop at the exact same location. . A geologist requesting people to calm down on tv. These tv channels are showing cracks in the paint of a wall (which is common in every old building). The whole program was giving an impression that there was a earthquake of at least 4.5 Richter  scale reading. The commotion of people and the cracks on the wall is giving the visual support to that. And all the mobile phones and landline in my home are ringing like in a call centre getting calls from my relatives and friends. And the geological equipment have not found anything yet. And this news only covered in local news channels especially TV5 and none of the national news channels covered it. I am at home, safe and sound , writing blog.

 

 

Do we really need it?

Today NAC ( National Advisory Council) recommended to provide subsidized rice and wheat to 80cr Indians. Its only 27% of indians who are living below poverty line (BPL). 80cr out of 113 cr (population of india) is around 72.7%. So 45% of indians who are not BPL will be befitted with this program. If he is not poor, if he is not in poverty why should he get the benefits which are targeted for the poor?

Of course these 45% are poor when compared to Anil ambani, but they are not too poor to buy their own food. Most of these 45% belongs to middle class and are like you and me. Have a computer a browse net, who download movies to watch, who might not have a benz car but have a motor vehicle for transport, who watch cricket and reality shows in TV, who are able to spend money on boozing and cigarettes, who dont prefer to travel in general compartment, who buys and reads novels, who goto theaters regularly, who buys DVDs.  NAC recommended to provide 35kg of rice for Rs. 3/- . I am not sure if these 45% going to stand in the queue at rashionshop and buy that rice.  To provide this subsidized food grain, its going to cost the govt 15,000 cr .. and this 15000cr is only for the first stage.

Why cant govt offer this subsidy to all the white-rashion-card people, after all the fake rashion cards are found out. The money spend giving subsidy for 45% can utilized for other purpose like building schools or providing equipment for the hospitals. Why provide subsidy for the people who dont need it. These 45% will buy a DVD or go and buy few more beers with the saved money because of subsidy (assuming he is ready to eat that cheap quality rice which will be distributed).

Lucky that its a man's world.

Few days back i was talking to my new acquittance who is a doctor. Somehow our aimless talk landed on pregnancy issues. And he started explaining what is to be in a labor room and delivering a baby. The whole process is so complicated, so delicate, so dangerous and its kind of horrible (probably not the right word to use but it is ). For the first time i felt lucky to be born as a boy. If i were a girl, i dont know what i would do. Interestingly many girls are ready to get married and give birth to a child 'to prove their womanhood'. Gynecology department is full of ladies, even they get married and give birth to kids.

I think being a girl is less advantageous than being a boy. I was not talking about periods or pregnancy (i am sure they are horrible), i was talking about social issues. I dont have to be conscious about where the person who is talking to me watching. I dont have to be feared to go to unknown places with bunch of guyz boozing in there. My parents wont be terrified if i come late night so one more thing not to bother about. I dont have to tackle the stupid flirting from my lecturers and managers. No eve-teasing. No restrictions on the way i dress. Nobody bothers if i get late night calls. I can drive without fear at mid night. i can give my mobile number to anyone without fearing the boring conversations i have to make later. I dont have to apply make-up. I dont have to face questions about my marriage from my late teenage. I dont have to cover my mouth when i laugh. I can actually laugh out loud. I wont get the weird looks if i dont gossip about others or if i talk normally without baby-talk.. I dont have to say ' i like old hindi songs'. I will be received as a normal person even if i am not a fan of sydney sheldon. Basically its a Man's world, and i am lucky that i am a man.

(freedom to use net and sms) = (freedom of speech)

The above equation is from 3rd most powerful person in china. He thinks that by allowing 400m netizens from china to express their views is freedom of speech to the nation. Freedom of speech is not just the right to talk. Its the right which allows people to express their views, their grief, their ideologies which might inspire others, which is the first step to create a social change in a system.

Just right to speech is not sufficient to create a social change. To propagate the ideology, one might have to travel the nation (Right to freely move within the borders of the nation), might take the help of media when the ideologies are critical of govt policies ( Uncensored media and news papers ) and one might have to gather people to take up a task (Right to form associations). And first of all the person who wants to create change must live and the nation must have a mechanism where govt cant arrest him without any reason ( Right to live ). Even if the govt tried to curb the change , the nation must have an institution which can direct the govt to do a thing and which gives justice to people and that institution must be out of influence of govt ( Rule of law, independent judiciary ).

A nation have to have all these rights so that the govt cant suppress a movement which is against govt. And these are called fundamental rights. Without which the citizens of nation cant create a change.

The whole idea of fundamental rights is originated from the belief that people could be wrong. And govt is not a machine with nuts and bolts, its a bunch of people who has authority to run the country. What if those bunch of people go wrong? The citizens should have the opportunity to criticize the govt. Probably the govt understands the point of citizens and mend it ways. This might work on few policies.What if majority of govt policies are not liked by the people. Then we need to have a mechanism to change the govt. In the old days this is accomplished with a revolution or a coup which is bloodshed. The french revolution , the american revolution, our struggle for independence can be quoted as examples.

Here comes the the concept of democracy to save us. Dont chant the old text book definition of govt by the ppl, for the ppl ...etc etc . I see democracy as the political system which allows the citizens to change the govt when they are not satisfied with the performance of present govt. We are fed up congress govt so we choosed BJP, it didnt perform well so we went back to congress again, it performed well and indians thought nuclear bill is not a bad thing so we choose  congress again. And all these changes were made without spilling blood.

All these concepts which let the citizens to keep the govt on toes are not present in china. Of course i agree their growth rate is more than us. Men will be more productive when a hunter visits them on their back , that does not mean we should follow the political structure of china. After all we are humans with feelings, not just workers.

Blame Gandhi

Yes, we need to blame our Father of nation for the false image he created about Indians. Everybody in the world thinks that India got independence through non-violence so we are peace loving people. Are we really peace loving people?? I dont think so.

 Our idea of a hero is a fighter not a pacifist. In modern india bhagat singh is more patriot than Gandhi, Nehru or patel because he used bombs and died later. Lala lajapat rai also died for the nation.  He was beaten to death in a lathi charge. But he didnt become a hero of modern india. He never used bombs or bullets, he fought in gandhian way. And he could not muster the fame like Azad or Bhagat singh.

We love fights. We love fights in movies and we need variety of fights. The villain has to die in the climax. We enjoy violence in the movies. Not only in movies, we love fighting in the streets. We love fighting based on our caste, religion and language. We fight police. We fight for water (at municipality pump and at dams), we fight for movie tickets, we fight for a seat (Travel in general compartment in any train). We fight for reservations. We fight to get a separate state. Even we enjoy when people get into a fight in reality shows. All most all Hindu gods carry weapons. Our great epics Ramayanam and Mahabharatam ends with epic fights. If you read medieval history of India, its full of wars and blood. The underline point is we love fighting.

But how could one man managed to convince this blood-thirsty-nation for a non-violent movement. He not only fought Imperialism but also caste system of indian society with the same non-violence. How did he do it is an interesting question. Anyway he has to take the blame for putting 'non-violent nation' tag  to our country.

comparing religion and communism

We all know that communism and religion dont go together but both have few similarities between them.

Both communists and theists shut them selves from the out side world. Both think they are the elite of the society and feel the burden of saving the society from disaster and promise harmony.

Both maintain the same strategy “either you are my friend or you are my foe” . No one can be neutral. They theists of a particular religion, atheists, agnostics and people who follow other religions are enemies. For communists who ever does not preach communism are capitalists, for them these are the only two political structures. A person should be a communist or a capitalist there is no alternative.

Both of them feel that the who ever does not subscribe to their philosophy are the problem makers. In the case of religion it says the harmony is disturbed due to other religions or evil which does not follow religion. In case of communists they believe that all problems of the world including pollution is due to persons who are not communists.

If we got a problem both will give us similar answer without giving any details. The standard answer from theists is “God will take care of it” and communists will say “System will take care of it”

Both will become mum if we talk about crude facts which are against them. Theists make faces when you explain miracle of god with a simple physics rule and communists dont like to be questioned on the collapse of USSR.

Both try to ignore modern developments. Theists wont talk about recent scientific developments and communists hate to talk about political developments.

Both wont prefer to be questioned. So both deny the right to express.

If we start practicing any of the two, according to both we dont have to blame our selves for our misery. According to both of them, our present state of life is not because of our deeds. According to religion if you are suffering, its because you did many wrong things in the previous life. According to communism, you are suffering because of capitalists.

According to both of them, we have to go through initial suffering to get the ultimate happiness. Religions asks us to fast, walk on the fire etc etc to get nirvana. And communism ask us to go through dictatorship to attain communism. Interestingly both wont reveal how long we need to go through the suffering to get the ultimate happiness.

Both of them advocate distruction of family. When religion says family is a constraint to get nirvana and sex is a sin. According to communist manifesto family is a capitalistic concept so must be abolished.

Both extreme theists and extreme communists wont like to live in the society. The extremists of religion prefer to sit in the shrine or in himalayas. And extremists of communists would like to sit in library or in the jungle. Irritatingly both of them talk about how the society should be.
