What Is Revolution

I know what I am talking about when I am talking about the revolutions. The people who read the books go to the people who can't read the books, the poor people, and say, "We have to have a change."

The same fucking thing starts all over again!

Letting these people off the crime they did, seems to be logical amongst various set of society who thinks letting go the criminals is a way forward for an emerging society. Death sentence looks medieval or cruel.  But was the crime (murder) committed a civilized step ? A society that sentences killers to nothing worse than prison -- no matter how depraved the killing or how innocent the victim -- is a society that doesn't *really* think murder is so terrible.  When a killer is hanged till death, society is condemning his crime with a seriousness and intensity that no other punishment achieves. I still remember as a child th...

बस यूं ही -- (भाग दो)

हम रोये तो लगा जमाना रोता है सच बोले तो हर  रोज़ यहाँ एक नया फसाना होता है कहीं खनकते जाम खुशी के कहीं भूके पेट बेचारा सोता है दामन अपना खाली देख मत रो उतना ही मिलता है जितना तू बोता है
