FAITH...


An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, the Almighty.
He asks one of his new students to stand and.....
Prof: So you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.
Prof: Is God good?
Student: Sure.
Prof: Is God all-powerful?
Student: Yes.
Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him.
Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is this God good then?
(Student is silent.)
Prof: You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fellow. Is God good?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Is Satan good?
Student: No.
Prof: Where does Satan come from?
Student: From...God...
Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.
Prof: So who created evil?
(Student does not answer.)
Prof: Is there sickness, Immorality, Hatred & Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don't they?
Student: Yes, sir.
Prof: So, who created them?
(Student has no answer.)
Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you.Tell me, son...Have you ever seen God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God for that matter?
Student: No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.
Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student: Yes.
Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your GOD doesn’t exist. What do you say to that, son?
Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.
Prof: Yes, Faith & that is the problem science has.
Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?
Prof: Yes.
Student: And is there such a thing as cold?
Prof: Yes.
Student: No sir. There isn't.
(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)
Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don't have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat, we cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.
(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)

Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?
Student: You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't. If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?

Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.
Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one.To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life; just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor. Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?
(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)
Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work & cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavour, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher? (The class is in uproar.) Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain? (The class breaks out into laughter.) Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain sir, with all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?
(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable.)
Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.
Student: That is it sir... The link between man & god is FAITH. That is all that keeps things moving & alive.
NB: this is a true story, and the student was none other than...........
APJ Abdul Kalam, the former president of India.

karni Mata mandir (rat temple)


Imagine yourself standing in the middle of thouands of rats, out of which some are scampering over your feet and the others are simply dining and playing with you. How would you react? Yes, you said it right it will either run a chill down your spine or absolutely petrify you. But to your surprise, this is not merely a wild imagination but a real life setting of a temple located in a small northwestern city of Rajasthan, Deshnoke. This ornate, isolated Hindu temple is called Karni Mata Temple. The temple was constructed by Maharaja Ganga Singh in the early 1900's as a tribute to the rat goddess, Karni Mata. The rats in the temple are known as Kabas. Though there are Intricate marble panels at the entrance and the floors of the temple, and silver and gold decorations are found throughout, but by far the most intriguing aspect of the interior is the 20,000-odd rats that call this temple home. Many people from all over the world travel great distances to pay their homage to them.

According to a parable, Karni Mata was an incarnation of Durga, once the child of one of her clansmen died. She attempted to restore the dead child back to life from Yama(God of Death) but she was told by him that the child had already been reincarnated. From that point forward, Mata announced that no one from her Tribe would ever fall into Yama's hands again instead they would be reborn as rats until being born back in to the tribe. Since then all her clansmen turned rats seeking shelter in this temple and with the blessings of Karni Mata they get their food, shelter, lodging and their lifestyle continues inside the temple itself. Despite being inumerable in number these kabas never come out of the premises of the temple.
One of the most outstanding facts about these Kabas is that they are completely innocuous and never disturb the devotees who visit the temple rather they silently play with them, eat with them, run around them, and sit on their laps which the devotees consider to be the benediction of the Goddess. There is one rare blessing that draws the most attention, and that is the sight of a white rat. Out of all of the thousands of rats in the temple, there are said to be four or five white rats, which are considered to be the holiest. They are believed be the spiritual manifestations of Karni Mata herself and her kin. Sighting them is a blessing in itself, and visitors put in extensive efforts just to catch a glimpse of these rats by luring them with sweets and milk.
It is astonishing to know that despite the presence of so many rats in the temple, no diseases related to rats have been reported till date. Neither the temple stinks of foul smell nor it is dirty anywhere. Rather the offerings like milk, sweets, and ground nuts are first offered to these kabas and then distributed to the devotees as mata's 'Prasad'. The water that these Kabas drink is considered very holy and auspicious. Another most interesting fact is that there has been no trace of these rats being reproduced. It is believed that all the kabas present in this temple are of same size, weight and body proportion without any change down the ages and there is no sign of baby rats inside the temple.

Though the rats are considered as one of the shyest animals found on earth that are scared of human beings but here in this temple the kabas roam about freely and often play with the devotees and at times dine with them or sit on their shoulders. The most ironic truth is that although we do not consider rats reverent enough and we kill them if ever we see them sharing some space in our homes and yet when we step in to this temple we worship them and even feel blessed eating and drinking their leftovers. Strangely the leftovers would not make us fall sick or catch any deadly disease instead it’s consumed as holy prasad of the temple.

All these incredible and astounding facts about the temple make it one of the most visited places in the Bikaner city of Rajasthan. People from everywhere come to see this temple. Some come out of sheer curiosity, some out of reverence and others simply come to enjoy and experience the feel of this strange, stupendous and one of its kind temple.

Not all thieves are stupid, So be carefull

This gives us something to think about with all our new electronic technology.

GPS

A couple of weeks ago a friend told me that someone he knew had their car broken into while they were at a football game. Their car was parked on the green which was adjacent to the football stadium and specially allotted to football fans. Things stolen from the car included a garage door remote control, some money and a GPS which had been prominently mounted on the dashboard.

When the victims got home, they found that their house had been ransacked and just about everything worth anything had been stolen. The thieves had used the GPS to guide them to the house. They then used the garage remote control to open the garage door and gain entry to the house. The thieves knew the owners were at the football game, they knew what time
the game was scheduled to finish and so they knew how much time they had to clean out the house. It would appear that they had brought a truck to empty the house of its contents.

Something to consider if you have a GPS - don't put your home address in it. Put a nearby address (like a store or gas station) so you can still find your way home if you need to, but no one else would know where you live if your GPS were stolen.

MOBILE PHONES

I never thought of this.......

This lady has now changed her habit of how she lists her names on her mobile phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag, which contained her cell phone, credit card, wallet... etc, was stolen.

20 minutes later when she called her hubby, from a pay phone telling him what had happened, hubby says 'I received your text asking about our Pin number and I've replied a little while ago.' When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already withdrawn. The thief had actually used the stolen cell phone to text 'hubby' in
the contact list and got hold of the pin number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from their bank account.

Moral of the lesson
Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list.

Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, Sweetheart, Dad, Mom, etc,

And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked through texts, CONFIRM by calling back

Also, when you're being texted by friends or family to meet them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came from them. If you don't reach them, be very careful about going places to meet family and friends' who text you.

Appendicitis & Appendectomy

The appendix is a small, worm-like appendage attached to the colon.

What is the appendix?

The appendix is a closed-ended, narrow, worm-like tube up to several inches in length that attaches to the cecum (the first part of the colon). (The anatomical name for the appendix, vermiform appendix, means worm-like appendage.) The wall of the appendix contains lymphatic tissue that is part of the immune system that makes antibodies.
Appendicitis occurs when bacteria invade and infect the wall of the appendix.

What is appendicitis?


Appendicitis means inflammation of the appendix. It is thought that appendicitis begins when the opening from the appendix into the cecum becomes blocked. The blockage may be due to a build-up of thick mucus within the appendix, or to stool that enters the appendix from the cecum. The mucus or stool hardens, becomes rock-like, and blocks the opening of the appendix into the cecum. If the blockage continues, bacteria that are normally present within the appendix invade (infect) the wall of the appendix. This causes inflammation in the wall of the appendix, and, as a result, the wall of the appendix begins to die, which finally results in the appendix bursting.
Appendicitis is a common condition that affects 6% of the population.

Who is affected by appendicitis?


Appendicitis is a common condition that affects 6% of the population. It most commonly occurs among those 10-30 years of age, though it can occur at any age. Increased vigilance in recognizing and treating potential cases of appendicitis is required for the very young and old who have a higher rate of complications.
The most common complications of appendicitis are perforation, abscess, and peritonitis.

What are the most frequent complications of appendicitis?

The most frequent complication of appendicitis is perforation. Perforation of the appendix can lead to a periappendiceal abscess (a collection of infected pus) or diffuse peritonitis (infection of the entire lining of the abdomen and the pelvis). The major reason for appendiceal perforation is delay in diagnosis and treatment. In general, the longer the delay between diagnosis and surgery, the more likely is perforation. The risk of perforation 36 hours after the onset of symptoms is at least 15%. Therefore, once appendicitis is diagnosed, surgery should be done without unnecessary delay.
A less common complication of appendicitis is blockage of the intestine.

What is another complication of appendicitis?

Blockage occurs when the inflammation surrounding the appendix causes the intestinal muscle to stop working, and this prevents the intestinal contents from passing. If the intestine above the blockage begins to fill with liquid and gas, the abdomen distends and nausea and vomiting may occur. It then may be necessary to drain the contents of the intestine through a tube passed through the nose and esophagus and into the stomach and intestine.
The main symptom of appendicitis is abdominal pain.

What are the symptoms of appendicitis?


The abdominal pain is at first not confined to one spot. The pain is so difficult to pinpoint that when asked to point to the area of the pain, most people indicate the location of the pain with a circular motion of their hand around the central part of their abdomen. A second, common, early symptom of appendicitis is loss of appetite which may progress to nausea and even vomiting. Nausea and vomiting also may occur later due to intestinal obstruction.
The diagnosis of appendicitis begins with a thorough history and physical examination.

How is appendicitis diagnosed?

Patients often have an elevated temperature, and there usually will be moderate to severe tenderness in the right lower abdomen when the doctor pushes there. If inflammation has spread to the peritoneum, there is frequently rebound tenderness. Rebound tenderness is pain that is worse when the doctor quickly releases his hand after gently pressing on the abdomen over the area of tenderness.
Treatment usually consists of appendectomy (surgical removal of the appendix).

How is appendicitis treated?

Once a diagnosis of appendicitis is made, an appendectomy usually is performed (surgical removal of the appendix). Antibiotics almost always are begun prior to surgery and as soon as appendicitis is suspected. On the next several slides we'll take a look at an actual step-by-step laparoscopic appendectomy procedure being performed.
Step 1 of 8: The appendix is located in the lower abdomen.

Appendectomy: Step 1 of 8.

This is a normal appendix in a female patient found to have an infection of the reproductive organs. Since the appendix serves no useful function, it will be removed to save her from getting appendicitis in the future.

Step 2 of 8: The mesentery (the tissue that suspends the appendix and carries blood vessels to the appendix) is divided from the appendix.

Appendectomy: Step 2 of 8.

The next step is to free up the appendix down to where it is attached to the large bowel. This requires dividing the mesentery which contains the blood vessels that supply the appendix. Bipolar forceps apply an electric current which seals the blood vessels and prevents bleeding.
Step 3 of 8: Scissors are used to free the appendix from its mesenteric attachment to the abdomen and colon.

Appendectomy: Step 3 of 8.

Next, scissors are used to divide the mesentery. Alternating application of the bipolar electrocautery forceps and scissors allow complete mobilization of the appendix down to its base.
Step 4 of 8: The base of the appendix is tied off using a pre-tied suture.

Appendectomy: Step 4 of 8.

Now the base of the appendix is tied off using a pre-tied suture which is now being positioned.
Step 5 of 8: The suture is now tightened using a fisherman's knot, which cannot loosen on its own.

Appendectomy: Step 5 of 8.

The suture has now been tightened and appears secure. The knot is a fisherman's knot, which can be tightened but will not loosen on its own.
Step 6 of 8: The suture is cut using scissors.

Appendectomy: Step 6 of 8.

As shown in this picture, the suture is now cut with the scissors.

Step 7 of 8: The appendix is cut free and ready to be removed.
Using the same scissors, the appendix is cut free and ready to be removed.
Step 8 of 8: The operation is complete and inspected.

Appendectomy: Step 8 of 8.

The operation is complete, and the area is inspected one final time to make sure there is no bleeding.
An example of an infected appendix that has been removed (left) and the resulting incisional scar from an appendectomy (right).

Are there complications and/or long-term consequences of appendectomy?

The most common complication of appendectomy is infection of the wound, that is, of the surgical incision. Such infections vary in severity from mild, with only redness and perhaps some tenderness over the incision, to moderate, requiring only antibiotics.

It is not clear if the appendix has an important role in the body in older children and adults. There are no major long-term health problems resulting from removing the appendix, although a slight increase in some diseases has been noted, for example, Crohn's disease (a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestines).

What do diabetes medicines do?

Over time, high levels of blood glucose, also called blood sugar, can cause health problems. These problems include heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, kidney disease, nerve damage, digestive problems, eye disease, and tooth and gum problems. You can help prevent health problems by keeping your blood glucose levels on target.
Everyone with diabetes needs to choose foods wisely and be physically active. If you can't reach your target blood glucose levels with wise food choices and physical activity, you may need diabetes medicines. The kind of medicine you take depends on your type of diabetes, your schedule, and your other health conditions.
Diabetes medicines help keep your blood glucose in your target range. The target range is suggested by diabetes experts and your doctor or diabetes educator. See below for more information about target levels for good health.

What targets are recommended for blood glucose levels?

The National Diabetes Education Program uses blood glucose targets set by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) for most people with diabetes. To learn your daily blood glucose numbers, you'll check your blood glucose levels on your own using a blood glucose meter.
Target blood glucose levels for most people with diabetes My targets
Before meals 70 to 130 mg/dL
1 to 2 hours after the start of a meal Less than 180 mg/dL

* Milligrams per deciliter.
Also, you should ask your doctor for a blood test called the A1C at least twice a year. The A1C will give you your average blood glucose for the past 3 months.
Target A1C result for people with diabetes My targets
Less than 7 percent

Your personal A1C goal might be higher or lower than 7 percent. Keeping your A1C as close to normal as possible-below 6 percent without having frequent low blood glucose-can help prevent long-term diabetes problems. Doctors might recommend other goals for very young children, older people, people with other health problems, or those who often have low blood glucose.
Talk with your doctor or diabetes educator about whether the target blood glucose levels and A1C result listed in the charts above are best for you. Write your own target levels in the charts. Both ways of checking your blood glucose levels are important.
If your blood glucose levels are not on target, you might need a change in how you take care of your diabetes. The results of your A1C test and your daily blood glucose checks can help you and your doctor make decisions about
• what you eat
• when you eat
• how much you eat
• what kind of exercise you do
• how much exercise you do
• the type of diabetes medicines you take
• the amount of diabetes medicines you take

What happens to blood glucose levels in people with diabetes?


Blood glucose levels go up and down throughout the day and night in people with diabetes. High blood glucose levels over time can result in heart disease and other health problems. Low blood glucose levels can make you feel shaky or pass out. But you can learn how to make sure your blood glucose levels stay on target-not too high and not too low.
What makes blood glucose levels go too high?
Your blood glucose levels can go too high if
• you eat more than usual
• you're not physically active
• you're not taking enough diabetes medicine
• you're sick or under stress
• you exercise when your blood glucose level is already high
Some diabetes medicines can also lower your blood glucose too much. Ask your doctor whether your diabetes medicines can cause low blood glucose. See Insert N for information about low blood glucose.
The results of your blood glucose checks can help you make decisions about your diabetes medicines, food choices, and physical activity.

Medicines for My Diabetes

Ask your doctor what type of diabetes you have and write down your answer.
I have
• type 1 diabetes
• type 2 diabetes
• gestational diabetes
• another type of diabetes: ____________________
Medicines for Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes, once called juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is usually first found in children, teenagers, or young adults. If you have type 1 diabetes, you must take insulin because your body no longer makes it. You also might need to take other types of diabetes medicines that work with insulin.
Medicines for Type 2 Diabetes
Type 2 diabetes, once called adult-onset diabetes or non insulin-dependent diabetes, is the most common form of diabetes. It can start when the body doesn't use insulin as it should, a condition called insulin resistance. If the body can't keep up with the need for insulin, you may need diabetes medicines. Many choices are available. Your doctor might prescribe two or more medicines. The ADA recommends that most people start with metformin, a kind of diabetes pill.
Medicines for Gestational Diabetes
Gestational diabetes is diabetes that occurs for the first time during pregnancy. The hormones of pregnancy or a shortage of insulin can cause gestational diabetes. Most women with gestational diabetes control it with meal planning and physical activity. But some women need insulin to reach their target blood glucose levels.
Medicines for Other Types of Diabetes
If you have one of the rare forms of diabetes, such as diabetes caused by other medicines or monogenic diabetes, talk with your doctor about what kind of diabetes medicine would be best for you.

Types of Diabetes Medicines

Diabetes medicines come in several forms.

Insulin
If your body no longer makes enough insulin, you'll need to take it. Insulin is used for all types of diabetes. Your doctor can help you decide which way of taking insulin is best for you.
• Taking injections. You'll give yourself shots using a needle and syringe. The syringe is a hollow tube with a plunger. You will put your dose of insulin into the tube. Some people use an insulin pen, which looks like a pen but has a needle for its point.
• Using an insulin pump. An insulin pump is a small machine about the size of a cell phone, worn outside of your body on a belt or in a pocket or pouch. The pump connects to a small plastic tube and a very small needle. The needle is inserted under the skin and stays in for several days. Insulin is pumped from the machine through the tube into your body.
• Using an insulin jet injector. The jet injector, which looks like a large pen, sends a fine spray of insulin through the skin with high-pressure air instead of a needle.

If your body no longer makes enough insulin, you'll need to take it.
What does insulin do?
Insulin helps keep blood glucose levels on target by moving glucose from the blood into your body's cells. Your cells then use glucose for energy. In people who don't have diabetes, the body makes the right amount of insulin on its own. But when you have diabetes, you and your doctor must decide how much insulin you need throughout the day and night.

What are the possible side effects of insulin?


Possible side effects include
• low blood glucose (for more information, see Insert N)
• weight gain

How and when should I take my insulin?

Your plan for taking insulin will depend on your daily routine and your type of insulin. Some people with diabetes who use insulin need to take it two, three, or four times a day to reach their blood glucose targets. Others can take a single shot. Your doctor or diabetes educator will help you learn how and when to give yourself insulin.
Types of Insulin
Each type of insulin works at a different speed. For example, rapid-acting insulin starts to work right after you take it. Long-acting insulin works for many hours. Most people need two or more types of insulin to reach their blood glucose targets.
Look at the list of types of insulin on Insert C. Check off the names of the kinds of insulin you take. Then print and write the names of your insulin under My Insulin in the chart on Insert A.
Diabetes Pills
Along with meal planning and physical activity, diabetes pills help people with type 2 diabetes or gestational diabetes keep their blood glucose levels on target. Several kinds of pills are available. Each works in a different way. Many people take two or three kinds of pills. Some people take combination pills. Combination pills contain two kinds of diabetes medicine in one tablet. Some people take pills and insulin.


Diabetes pills help people with type 2 diabetes or gestational diabetes keep their blood glucose levels on target.
Your doctor may ask you to try one kind of pill. If it doesn't help you reach your blood glucose targets, your doctor may ask you to
• take more of the same pill
• add another kind of pill
• change to another type of pill
• start taking insulin
• start taking another injected medicine
If your doctor suggests that you take insulin or another injected medicine, it doesn't mean your diabetes is getting worse. Instead, it means you need insulin or another type of medicine to reach your blood glucose targets. Everyone is different. What works best for you depends on your usual daily routine, eating habits, and activities, and your other health conditions.
For information about the different kinds of pills and what they do, see the inserts. You'll see the brand name and the generic name-the scientific name-for each medicine. Find your diabetes pills and check off the names. Then print and write the names of your diabetes pills under My Pills and Injected Medicines in the chart on Insert A.

Injections Other Than Insulin

In addition to insulin, two other types of injected medicines are now available. Both work with insulin-either the body's own or injected-to help keep your blood glucose from going too high after you eat. Neither is a substitute for insulin.
See the cards in the pocket of this booklet for more information about these injected medicines. Check off the kinds you take. Then write the names of your injected medicines under My Pills and Injected Medicines in the chart on Insert A.
Talk with your doctor if you have questions about your diabetes medicines. Do not stop taking your diabetes medicines without checking with your doctor first. See Insert B for a list of questions to ask your doctor about your medicines.

What do I need to know about side effects of medicines?


A side effect is an unwanted problem caused by a medicine. For example, some diabetes medicines can cause nausea or an upset stomach when you first start taking them. Before you start a new medicine, ask your doctor about possible side effects and how you can avoid them. If the side effects of your medicine bother you, tell your doctor.

A Simple Story of True Love and True Care

I was born in a secluded village on a mountain. Day by day, my parents ploughed the yellow dry soil with their backs towards the sky.

I have a brother who is 3 years younger than me. I wanted to buy a handkerchief, which all girls around me seemed to have. So, one day I stole 50 cents from my father's drawer. Father had discovered about the stolen money right away.

He made me and my younger brother kneel against the< /FONT> wall as he held a bamboo stick in his hand. "Who stole the money?" he asked. I was stunned, too afraid to talk. Neither of us admitted to the fault, so he said, "Fine, if nobody wants to admit, you two should be beaten!"
He lifted up the bamboo stick. Suddenly, my younger brother gripped father's hand and said," Dad, I was the one who did it!" The long stick smacked my brother's back repeatedly. Father was so angry that he kept on whipping my brother until he lost his breath. After that, he sat down on our stone bed and scolded my brother, "You have learned to steal from your own house now. What other embarrassing things will you be possibly doing in the future? You should be beaten to death, you shameless thief!"
That night, my mother and I hugged my brother. His body was full of wounds from the beating but he never shed a single tear. In the middle of the night, all of sudden, I cried out loudly. My brother covered my mouth with his little hand and said, “Sis, now don't cry anymore. Everything has happened."

I still hate myself for not having enough courage to admit what I did. Years gone by, but the incident still seemed like it just happened yesterday. I will never forget my brother's expression when he protected me.

That year, my brother was 8 years old and I was 11 years old. When my brother was in his last year of secondary school, he was accepted in an upper secondary school in the central. At the same time, I was accepted into a university in the province. That night, father squatted in the yard, smoking, packet by packet.

I could hear him ask my mother, "Both of our children, they have good results? Very good results?" Mother wiped off her tears and sighed," What is the use? How can we possibly finance both of them?" At that time, my brother walked out, he stood in front
of father and said, "Dad, I don't want to continue my study anymore, I have read enough books."

Father swung his hand and slapped my brother on his face. "Why do you have a spirit so damn weak? Even if it means I have to beg for money on the streets, I will send you two to school until you have both finished your study!"

And then, he started to knock on every house in the village to borrow money. I stuck out my hand as gently as I can to my brother's swollen face, and told him, "A boy has to continue his study; If not, he will not be able to overcome this poverty we are experiencing."

I, on the other hand, had decided not to further my study at the university. Nobody knew that on the next day, before dawn, my brother left the house with a few pieces of worn-out clothes and a few dry beans. He sneaked to my side of the bed and left a note on my pillow; "Sis, getting into a university is not easy. I will go find a job and I will send money to you."

I held the note while sitting on my bed, and cried until I lost my voice. That year, my brother was 17 years old; I was 20 years old. With the money father borrowed from the whole village, and the money my brother earned from carrying cement on his back at a construction site, finally, I managed to get to the third year of my study in the university.

One day, while I was studying in my room, my roommate came in and told me, "There's a villager waiting for you outside!" Why would there be a villager looking for me? I walked out, and I saw my brother from afar. His whole body was covered with dirt, dust, cement and sand. I asked him, "Why did you not tell my roommate that you are my brother?" He replied with a smile," Look at my appearance. What will they think if they would know that I am your brother? Won't they laugh at you?" I felt so touched, and tears filled my eyes. I swept away dirt and dust from my brother's body. And told him with a lump in my throat, “I don't care what people would say! You are my brother no matter what your appearance is?"

From his pocket, he took out a butterfly hair clip. He put it on my hair and said, "I saw all the girls in town are wearing it. So, I think you should also have one." I could not hold back myself anymore. I pulled my brother into my arms and cried.

That year, my brother was 20 years old; I was 23 years old. I noticed that the broken window was repaired the first time I brought my boyfriend home. The house was scrubbed cleaned. After my boyfriend left, I danced like a little girl in front of my mother, "Mom, you didn't have to spend so much time cleaning the house!" But she told me with a smile," It was your brother who went home early to clean the house. Didn't you see the wound on his hand? He hurt his hand while he was replacing the window." I went into my brother's bedroom. Looking at his thin face, I felt like there are hundreds of needle pricked in my heart.
I applied some ointment on his wound and put a bandage on it, "Does it hurt? " I asked him. "No, it doesn't hurt. You know, when at the construction site, stones keep falling on my feet. Even that could not stop me from working." In the middle of the sentence, he stopped. I turned my back on him and tears rolled down my face.

That year, my brother was 23 years old; I was 26 years old. After I got married, I lived in the city. Many times my husband invited my parents to come and live with us, but they didn't want. They said, once they left the village, they wouldn't know what to do. My brother agreed with them. He said, "Sis, you just take care of your parents-in-law. I will take care of mom and dad here."

My husband became the director of his factory. We asked my brother to accept the offer of being the manager in the maintenance department. But my brother rejected the offer. He insisted on working as a repairman instead for a start.
One day, my brother was on the top of a ladder repairing a cable, when he got electrocuted, and was sent to the hospital. My husband and I visited him at the hospital. Looking at the white gypsum on his leg, I grumbled, "Why did you reject the offer of being a manager? Managers won't do something dangerous like that. Now look at you, you are suffering a serious injury. Why didn't you just listen to us?"

With a serious expression on his face, he defended his decision, "Think of brother-in-law. He just became the director, and I being uneducated, and would become a manager, what kind of rumors would fly around?" My husband's eyes filled up with tears, and then I said, "But you lack in education only because of me!" "Why do you talk about the past?" he said and then he held my hand.

That year, he was 26 years old and I was 29 years old. My brother was 30 years old when he married a farmer girl from the village. During the wedding reception, the master of ceremonies asked him, "Who is the one person you respect and love the most?"
Without even taking a time to think, he answered," My sister." He continued by telling a story I could not even remember.

"When I was in primary school, the school was in a different village. Everyday, my sister and I would walk for 2 hours to school and back home. One day, I lost the other pair of my gloves. My sister gave me one of hers. She wore only one glove and she had to walk far. When we got home, her hands were trembling because of the cold weather that she could not even hold her chopsticks. From that day on, I swore that as long as I live, I would take care of my sister and will always be good to her." Applause filled up the room. All guests turned their attention to me. I found it hard to speak, "In my whole life, the one I would like to thank most is my brother," And in this happy occasion, in front of the crowd, tears were rolling down my face again.

Love and care for the one you love every single days of your life. You may think what you did is just a small deed, but to that someone, it may mean a lot.

Have a nice day everyone! May this story inspire you in any way!

THE CURIOUS CASE OF RAHUL GANDHI

Rahul Gandhi: "I feel ashamed to call myself an INDIAN
after seeing what has happened here in UP".


Rahul Gandhi Exposed by an IIT student...NITIN GUPTA, Mumbai...

PLEASE DON'T BE ASHAMED OF U.P. YET
please don't be ashamed of Uttar Pradesh yet. Congress ruled the State for the Majority of the duration Pre Independence to Post Independence from 1939 to 1989 (barring the Periods of Emergency). Thanks to your Grand Mom Indira G. and a couple of transitional Governments)

8 out of the total 14 Prime Ministers of India have been from UP, 6 out of those 8 have been from Congress...

I think your party had more than half a century and half a Dozen PM's to build a State...

The Reason Mulayam Singh, subsequently came to Power is because your party wasn't exactly Gandhian in their dealings in the State. So May be If you look at in totality the present chaos in UP is the outcome of the glorious leadership displayed by Congress in UP for about 50 years!

So Please don't feel ashamed as yet Dear Rahul. For Mayawati is only using the Land Acquisition Bill which your party had itself used to LOOT the Farmers many times in the Past!

WHY DIDN'T YOUR PARTY CHANGE THE BILL WHEN IT WAS IN POWER FOR SO LONG?

Not that I Endorse what Mayawati is doing, what Mayawati is doing is Unacceptable.

But the past actions of your party and your recent comments, puts a question mark on your INTENT and CONSISTENCY.


YOU REALLY WANT TO FEEL ASHAMED?

But don't be disappointed, I would give you ample reasons to feel ashamed...

You really want to feel Ashamed..?

First Ask Pranav Mukherjee, Why isn't he giving the details of the account holders in the Swiss Banks.

Ask your Mother, Who is impeding the Investigation against Hasan Ali?

Ask her, who got 60% Kickbacks in the 2G Scam?

Kalamdi is accused of a Few hundred Crores, Who Pocketed the Rest in the Common Wealth Games?

Ask Praful Patel what he did to the Indian Airlines? Why did Air India let go of the Profitable Routes?

Why should the Tax Payer pay for the Air India losses, when you intend to eventually DIVEST IT ANYWAY!!!

Also, You People can't run an Airline Properly. How can we expect you to run the Nation?

Ask Manmohan Singh. Why/What kept him quiet for so long?

Are Kalmadi and A Raja are Scapegoats to save Big Names like Harshad Mehta was in the 1992 Stock Market Scandal ?

Who let the BHOPAL GAS TRAGEDY Accused go Scot Free? (20,000 People died in that Tragedy)

Who ordered the State Sponsored Massacre of SIKHS in 84?

Please read more about, How Indira Gandhi pushed the Nation under Emergency in 76-77, after the HC declared her election to Lok Sabha Void!

(I bet she had utmost respect for DEMOCRACY and JUDICIARY and FREE PRESS)

I guess you know the answers already. So my question is, Why the Double Standards in Judging Mayawati and members of your Family and Party?

I condemn Mayawati. But Is She the only one you feel Ashamed for?

What about the ones close to you? For their contribution to the Nation's Misery is beyond comparison.

You talk about the Land being taken away from the Farmers. How many Suicides have happened under your Parties Rule in Vidarbha? Does that Not Ashamed You?


THE 72,000 CRORE LOAN WAIVER

Your Party gave those Farmers a 72,000 Crore Loan Waiver, Which didn't even reach the Farmers by the way.

So, Why don't you focus on implementing the policies which your govt. has undertaken, instead of earning brownie points by trying to manufacture consent by bombarding us with pictures of having food with Poor Villagers....

You want to feel ashamed. You can feel ashamed for your Party taking CREDIT for DEBITING the Public Money (72,000 crores) from the Government Coffers and literally Wasting it...

You want to feel ashamed. Feel ashamed for that...

WHY ONLY HIGHLIGHT THIS ARREST?

Dear Rahul, to refresh your memory, you were arrested/detained by the FBI the BOSTON Airport in September 2001.

You were carrying with you $ 160,000 in Cash. You couldn't explain why you were carrying so much Cash.


Incidentally He was with his Columbian girlfriend Veronique Cartelli, ALLEGEDLY, the Daughter of Drug Mafia.


9 HOURS he was kept at the Airport.

Later then freed on the intervention of the then Prime Minister Mr.Vajpayee..
FBI filed an equivalent of an FIR in US and released him.

When FBI was asked to divulge the information, by Right/Freedom to Information Activists about the reasons Rahul was arrested ... FBI asked for a NO OBJECTION CERTIFICATE from Rahul Gandhi.

So Subramaniyam Swami wrote a Letter to Rahul Gandhi, “If you have NOTHING to HIDE, Give us the Permission"

HE NEVER REPLIED!

Why did that arrest not make Headlines Rahul? You could have gone to the Media and told, "I am ashamed to call myself an INDIAN?”

Or is it that, you only do like to highlight Symbolic Arrests (like in UP) and not Actual Arrests (In BOSTON)

Kindly Clarify.....

In any case, you want to feel ashamed, Read Along...

YOUR MOTHER'S SO CALLED SACRIFICE OF GIVING UP PRIME MINISTER SHIP in 2004.

(According to a Provision in the Citizenship Act.)

A Foreign National, who becomes a Citizen of India, is bounded by the same restrictions, which an Indian would face, if he/she were to become a Citizen of Italy.
(Condition based on principle of reciprocity)

[READ ANNEXURE- 1&2]

Now since you can't become a PM in Italy, unless you are born there.

Likewise an Italian Citizen can't become Indian PM, unless she/he is not born here!

Dr. SUBRAMANIYAM SWAMI (The Man who exposed the 2G Scam) sent a letter to the PRESIDENT OF INDIA bringing the same to his Notice. [READ LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT IN ANNEXURE -3]

PRESIDENT OF INDIA sent a letter to Sonia Gandhi to this effect, 3:30 PM, May 17th, 2004.
Swearing Ceremony was scheduled for 5 PM the same Day.

Manmohan Singh was brought in the Picture at the last moment to save Face!!
Rest of the SACRIFICE DRAMA which she choreographed was an EYE WASH!!!

In fact Sonia Gandhi had sent, 340 letters, each signed by different MP to the PRESIDENT KALAM, supporting her candidacy for PM.

One of those letters read, I Sonia Gandhi, elected Member from Rai Bareli, hereby propose Sonia Gandhi as Prime Minister.

So SHE was pretty INTERESTED! Until she came to know the Facts!

So she didn't make any Sacrifice, It so happens that SONIA GANDHI couldn't have become the PM of INDIA that time.

You could be Ashamed about that Dear Rahul!! One Credential Sonia G had, Even that was a HOAX!

THINK ABOUT YOURSELF.

You go to Harvard on Donation Quota. (Hindujas Gave HARVARD 11 million dollars the same year, when Rajiv Gandhi was in Power)


Then you are expelled in 3 Months/ You Dropped out in 3 Months.... (Sadly Manmohan Singh wasn't the Dean of Harvard that time, else you might have had a chance... Too bad, there is only one Manmohan Singh!)

Some Accounts say, you had to Drop out because of Rajiv Gandhi's Assassination.

May be, But Then Why did you go about lying about being Masters in Economics from Harvard. before finally taking it off your Resume upon questioning by Dr. SUBRAMANIYAM SWAMI (The Gentlemen who exposed the 2G Scam)

At St. Stephens.. You Fail the Hindi Exam.

Hindi Exam!!!

And you are representing the Biggest Hindi Speaking State of the Country?

SONIA GANDHI's EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS

Sonia G gave a sworn affidavit as a Candidate that She Studied English at University of Cambridge

[SEE ANNEXURE-6, 7_37a]

According to Cambridge University, there is no such Student EVER! [SEE ANNEXURE -7_39]

Upon a Case by Dr. Subramaniyam Swami filed against her,

She subsequently dropped the CAMBRIDGE CREDENTIAL from her Affidavit.

Sonia Gandhi didn't even pass High School. She is just 5th class Pass!

In this sense, she shares a common Educational Background with her 2G Partner in Crime, Karunanidhi.

You Fake your Educational Degree, Your Mother Fakes her Educational Degree.
And then you go out saying, “We want Educated Youth into Politics!"



Letters sent by Dr. Swami to EC and then Speaker of Lok Sabha are in ANNEXURE 7_36 &7_35 RESPECTIVELY
Contrast that with Gandhi Ji , who went to South Africa, Became a Barrister, on Merit, Left all that to work for South Africa, then for the Country....


WHY LIE ABOUT EDUCATIONAL CREDENTIALS?

Not that Education is a Prerequisite for being a great Leader, but then you shouldn't have lied about your qualifications!

You could feel a little ashamed about Lying about your Educational Qualifications. You had your reasons I know, because in India, WE RESPECT EDUCATION!

But who cares about Education, when you are a Youth Icon!!

YOUTH ICON
you travelled in the Local Train for the first time at the Age of 38.

You went to some Villages as a part of Election Campaign.

And you won a Youth Icon!! ... That's why you are my Youth Icon.

For 25 Million People travel by Train Every day, You are the First Person to win a Youth Icon for boarding a Train.

Thousands of Postmen go to remotest of Villages. None of them have yet gotten a Youth Icon.

You were neither YOUNG nor ICONIC!

Still you became a Youth Icon beating Iconic and Younger Contenders like RAHUL DRAVID.

Shakespeare said, what’s in a Name?

Little did he knew, it’s all in the Name, Especially the Surname!

Speaking of Surname, Sir


DOES YOU REALLY RESPECT GANDHI, OR IS IT JUST TO CASH IN ON THE GOODWILL OF MAHATMA?

Just because Name on your Passport is RAUL VINCI.

Not RAHUL GANDHI…

May be if you wrote your Surname as Gandhi, you would have experienced, what Gandhi feels like, LITERALLY (Pun Intended)

You People don't seem to use Gandhi much, except when you are fighting Elections. (There it makes complete sense).

Imagine fighting elections by the Name Raul Vinci...


It feels sadly Ironic, Gandhi Ji, who inspired Icons like Nelson Mandela ,Martin Luther King Jr. and John Lennon, across the world, Couldn't inspire members of his party/ Nehru's Family, who only seem to use his Surname for the purposes of FIGHTING ELECTIONS and conveniently use a different name on their PASSPORT.

You use the name GANDHI at will and then say, “Mujhe yeh YUVRAJ shabd Insulting lagta hai! Kyonki aaj Hindustan mein Democracy hai, aur is shabd ka koi matlab nahin hai!

YUVRAJ, Itna hi Insulting lagta hai, to lad lo RAUL VINCI ke Naam se!!! Jin Kisano ke saath photo khinchate ho woh bhi isliye entertain karte hain ki GANDHI ho. RAUL VINCI bol ke Jao... Ghar mein nahin ghusaenge!!!

You could feel ashamed for your Double Standards.

YOUTH IN POLITICS

Now you want Youth to Join Politics.

I say First you Join Politics.

You haven't Joined Politics. You have joined a Family Business.

First, join Politics. Win an Election fighting as RAUL VINCI and Not Rahul Gandhi, then come and ask the youth and the Educated Brass for more involvement in Politics.

Also till then, Please don't give me examples of Sachin Pilot and Milind Deora and Naveen Jindal as youth who have joined Politics.

They are not Politicians. They just happen to be Politicians.

Much Like Abhishek Bachchan and other Star Sons are not Actors. They just happen to be Actors (For Obvious Reasons)

So, We would appreciate if you stop requesting the Youth to Join Politics till you establish your credentials...


WHY WE CAN'T JOIN POLITICS!

Rahul Baba, Please understand, Your Father had a lot of money in your Family account ( in Swiss Bank) when he died.

Ordinary Youth has to WORK FOR A LIVING.

YOUR FAMILY just needs to NETWORK FOR A LIVING

If our Father had left thousands of Crores with us, We might consider doing the same..

But we have to Work. Not just for ourselves, But also for you. So that we can pay 30% of our Income to the Govt. which can then be channelized to the Swiss Banks and your Personal Accounts under some Pseudo Names.

So Rahul, Please don't mind if the Youth doesn't Join Politics. We are doing our best to fund your Election Campaigns and your Chopper Trips to the Villages.

Somebody has to earn the Money that Politicians Feed On.


NO WONDER YOU ARE NOT GANDHI'S. YOU ARE SO CALLED GANDHI'S!!

Air India, KG Gas Division, 2G, CWG, SWISS BANK Account Details... Hasan Ali, KGB, FBI Arrest.

You want to feel ashamed.

Feel Ashamed for what the First Family of Politics has been reduced to A Money Laundering Enterprise.

NO WONDER YOU ARE NOT GANDHI'S BY BLOOD. GANDHI is an adopted Name. For Indira didn't marry Mahatma Gandhi's Son.

If you had one gene OF GANDHI JI in your DNA, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN PLAGUED BY SUCH 'POVERTY OF AMBITION' (Ambition of only EARNING MONEY)

you really want to feel Ashamed.

Feel Ashamed for what you ' SO CALLED GANDHI'S' have done to MAHATMA'S Legacy.

I so wish GANDHI JI had Copy right his Name!

Meanwhile, I would request Sonia Gandhi to change her name to $ONIA GANDHI and you could replace the 'R' in RAHUL/RAUL by the New Rupee Symbol!!!


RAUL VINCI: I am ashamed to call myself an Indian.

Even we are ashamed to call you so!


P.S: Popular Media is either bought or blackmailed, controlled to Manufacture Consent!
My Guess is Social Media is still a Democratic Platform. (Now they are trying to put legislations to censor that too!!)
Meanwhile, let’s ask these questions, for we deserve some Answers.
We are all Gandhi's. For Bapu is the Father of the Nation!
To know more, try looking for Dr. SUBRAMANIYAM SWAMI. He is the reason 2G SCAM is being Investigated!!!

Energy Saving bulbs

British Ministry of health about Energy Saving bulbs,
These types of bulbs which are called Energy Saving or low Energy bulbs, if broken, cause serious danger!

So much so, that if one breaks, everybody will have to leave the room for at least 15 minutes, because it contains Mercury (poisonous) which causes migraine, disorientation, imbalances and different other health problems, when inhaled. It causes many people with allergies, severe skin conditions and other diseases just by touching this substance or inhaling it. Also the ministry warned to NOT clean the debris of the broken bulb with a vacuum cleaner, because it would spread the contamination to other rooms in the house when using the vacuum cleaner again. It must be cleaned up with a normal broom or brush, be kept in a sealed bag and disposed of right away from the house in a bin for hazardous materials.
Note: Mercury is dangerous,
More poisonous than lead or arsenic!!!!

One Bed Room Flat



... As the dream of most parents I had acquired a degree in Software Engineering and joined a company based in USA, the Land of braves’ and opportunity. When I arrived in the USA, it was as if a dream had come true.

Here at last I was in the place where I want to be. I decided I would be staying in this country for about Five years in which time I would have earned enough money to settle down in India.

My father was a government employee and after his retirement, the only asset he could acquire was a decent one bedroom flat. I wanted to do something more than him. I started feeling homesick and lonely as the time
passed. I used to call home and speak to my parents every week using cheap international phone cards. Two years passed, two years of Burgers at McDonald's and pizzas and discos and 2 years watching the foreign exchange rate getting happy whenever the Rupee value went down.

Finally I decided to get married. Told my parents that I have only 10 days of holidays and everything must be done within these 10 days. I got my ticket booked in the cheapest flight.

I was jubilant and was actually enjoying hopping for gifts for all my friends back home. If I miss anyone then there will be talks. After reaching home I spent home one week going through all the photographs of girls and as the time was getting shorter I was forced to select one candidate.

In-laws told me, to my surprise, that I would have to get married in 2-3 days, as I will not get anymore holidays. After the marriage, it was time to return to USA, after giving some money to my parents and telling the
neighbours to look after them, we returned to USA.

My wife enjoyed this country for about two months and then she started feeling lonely. The frequency of calling India increased to twice in a week sometimes 3 times a week. Our savings started diminishing.

After two more years we started to have kids. Two lovely kids, a boy and a girl, were gifted to us by the almighty. Every time I spoke to my parents, they asked me to come to India so that they can see their grand-children.

Every year I decide to go to India... But part work part monetary conditions prevented it. Years went by and visiting India was a distant dream. Then suddenly one day I got a message that my parents were seriously
sick. I tried but I couldn't get any holidays and thus could not go to India ... The next message I got was my parents had passed away and as there was no one to do the last rites the society members had done whatever they could. I was depressed. My parents had passed away without seeing their grand children.

After couple more years passed away, much to my children's dislike and my wife's joy we returned to India to settle down. I started to look for a suitable property, but to my dismay my savings were short and the property
prices had gone up during all these years. I had to return to the USA...

My wife refused to come back with me and my children refused to stay in India... My 2 children and I returned to USA after promising my wife I would be back for good after two years. Time passed by, my daughter decided
to get married to an American and my son was happy living in USA... I decided that had enough and wound-up everything and returned to India... I had just enough money to buy a decent 02 bedroom flat in a well-developed
locality.

Now I am 60 years old and the only time I go out of the flat is for the routine visit to the nearby temple. My faithful wife has also left me and gone to the holy abode.

Sometimes I wondered was it worth all this?

My father, even after staying in India, Had a house to his name and I too have the same nothing more.

I lost my parents and children for just ONE EXTRA BEDROOM. Looking out from the window I see a lot of children dancing. This damned cable TV has spoiled our new generation and these children are losing their values and culture because of it. I get occasional cards from my children asking I am alright. Well at least they remember me.

Now perhaps after I die it will be the neighbours again who will be performing my last rites, God Bless them.

But the question still remains 'was all this worth it?

I am still searching for an answer.................!!!

START THINKING

IS IT JUST FOR ONE EXTRA BEDROOM???

LIFE IS BEYOND THIS.....DOING JUST LEAVE YOUR LIFE & PARENTS........

START LIVING IT.......

LIVE IT AS YOU WANT IT TO BE....... BCZ LIFE IS PRECIOUS!!!!

Using 0live oil 'cuts risk of stroke by 41%

0live oil used in cooking and salads'cuts risk of stroke by 41%

People who cook with olive oil, add it to salads and dip their bread in it are 41 per cent less likely to suffer a stroke than those who never eat it.

Researchers who carried out a study of almost 8,000 people say all older people will live longer if they eat lots of it.

The Mediterranean diet relies heavily on olive oil and is regarded as the classic eating habit in countries such as France, Greece, Spain and Italy.

Britons, however, eat higher levels of animal or saturated fats, and every year about 120,000 suffer strokes. Up to 30 per cent die within a month.

Cecilia Samieri, of the National Institute of Health and Medical Research in Bordeaux, where the survey was done, said: 'Stroke is so common in older people and olive oil would be an inexpensive and easy way to help prevent it.

'A new set of dietary recommendations should be issued to prevent stroke in people aged 65 and older.'

Researchers observed 7,625 people aged 65 or more who had never had a stroke.

Olive oil use was classified as 'none', 'moderate' in cooking or as dressing or with bread, and 'intensive' when used for both.

Over five years 148 participants suffered a stroke, says a report in the journal Neurology.

Altogether 2.6 per cent of non-users had a stroke, two per cent of moderate users and 1.5 per cent of intensive users.

The study took into account diet, physical activity, people’s weight and other risk factors.

Olive oil contains omega-6 fats which block the body’s response to inflammation in chronic conditions such as heart disease and arthritis and also reduces blood pressure.

Dr Sharlin Ahmed of the UK’s Stroke Association said: 'This study is not a clinical trial.

'A lot more research needs to be carried out to scientifically test the effectiveness of olive oil.'

How Excellence comes……




The Three people

Three people were laying bricks. A passerby asked them what they were doing.

The first one replied, "Don't you see I am making a living?"

The second one said, "Don't you see I am lying bricks?"

The third one said, "I am building a beautiful monument."

Here were three people doing the same thing who had totally different perspective on what they were doing.

They had three very different attitudes about their work. And would their attitude affect their performance? The answer is clearly yes.

REFLECTION
Excellence comes when the performer takes pride in doing his best. Every job is a self-portrait of the person who does it, regardless of what the job is, whether washing cars, sweeping the floor or painting a house.

Michelangelo had been working on a statue for many days. He was taking a long time to retouch every small detail. A bystander thought these improvements were insignificant and asked Michelangelo why he bothered with them. Michelangelo replied, "Trifle make perfection and perfection is no trifle."

Most people forget how fast you did a job, but they remember how well it was done.
Pride of performance does not represent ego. It represents pleasure with humility.

"The quality of the work and the quality of the worker are inseparable."

Half-hearted effort does not produce half results; it produces no results!

-Adarsh Mehandru

राहुल गाँधी के बयान--

अब विदेशियों को भी राहुल गाँधी से निराशा हो रही है। अमेरिकी कांग्रेस (संसद) की शोध संस्था ने अपनी नई रिपोर्ट में कहा है कि राहुल गाँधी बोलने में प्रायः गड़बड़ा जाते हैं। 94 पृष्ठों की यह रिपोर्ट भारत की स्थिति पर है, और इस में अगले लोक सभा चुनाव के बारे में भी कुछ टिप्पणियाँ हैं। इसी रिपोर्ट में अगले लोक सभा चुनाव में राहुल बनाम मोदी का अनुमान भी किया गया है।
राहुल का नवीनतम बयान आया है कि वे भी कश्मीरी हैं! संकेत पूर्वजों के कश्मीरी होने से है। मगर इस आधार पर तो राहुल सबसे पहले 50 % इटालियन हैं। शेष 50 % भारतीयता में, आधा उत्तर प्रदेशी और आधा बंबइया। चूँकि औरंगजेब वाले युग में ही उनके पूर्वज इलाहाबाद आ चुके थे। इस प्रकार उनके पूर्वज लगभग तेरह पीढ़ी पहले कश्मीरी थे। कितनी भी उदारता से हिसाब करें तो राहुल 5 प्रतिशत कश्मीरी ही हुए, जबकि उनका 50 प्रतिशत इटालियन होना पक्का है। इटली के संविधान के अनुसार तो राहुल शत-प्रतिशत इटालियन हैं, क्योंकि उनके जन्म के समय उनकी माता इटली की नागरिक थीं।
बहरहाल, यह लंबे समय से देखा जा रहा है कि राहुल जब भी कुछ महत्वपूर्ण बोलने की कोशिश करते हैं, तो कोई गड़बड़ी हो जाती है। प्रायः कांग्रेस के चतुर-सुजानों को स्पष्टीकरण देने आना पड़ता है। इससे पहले राहुल ने अन्ना के अनशन के दौरान संसद में बयान दिया। उस में स्कूली लड़के जैसे उत्साह में अपने बयान को स्वयं ही ‘गेम चेंजर’ कहते बड़ी-बड़ी बातें कह डालीं। किन्तु उस का तात्कालिक स्थिति पर रत्ती भर असर न पड़ा। फिर जब 27 अगस्त को संसद में उसी सदर्भ में चल रही ऐतिहासिक बहस को संपूर्ण भारत देख-सुन रहा था, तब राहुल गाँधी संसद आए ही नहीं! न कोई कैफियत आई। संसद में उस दिन अनुपस्थिति भी एक बयान थी! राहुल की राजनीतिक समझ का उदाहरण कि वे अत्यंत मह्त्वपूर्ण अवसरों पर भी संसद में रहने की जिम्मेदारी महसूस नहीं करते। वैसे, राहुल संसद में शायद ही कभी आते हैं। किसी ने अनुमान से कहा है राहुल अब तक कुल मिलाकर संभवतः पंद्रह दिन भी संसद नहीं आए हैं।
राहुल को सक्रिय राजनीति में आए तेरह वर्ष हो चुके। तब यह अच्छे लक्षण नहीं कि बार-बार उन के कहे की सफाई देनी पड़े। विगत जुलाई मुंबई में आतंकी हमलों के बाद ‘एक प्रतिशत’ आतंकी घटनाओं के न रुक सकने वाला कथन भी वैसा ही था। उससे पहले मई में भट्टा-परसौल में पुलिस द्वारा ‘70 किसानों’ की सामूहिक हत्या और महिलाओं के साथ बलात्कार वाली काल्पनिक बात पुरानी भी नहीं पड़ी थी। और बार-बार कांग्रेस वक्ताओं को सफाई देनी पड़ी।
उस से पहले राहुल प्रतिबंधित, आतंकवादी संगठन स्टूडेंट इस्लामिक मूवमेंट ऑफ इंडिया (सिमी) और राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ (आर.एस.एस.) को एक जैसा बता चुके हैं। यानी एक घोषित भारत-विरोधी आतंकी संगठन की तुलना एक देशभक्त संगठन से। ऐसी समदर्शिता से आतंकवाद विरोधी लड़ाई कमजोर ही हुई।
पिछले वर्ष फरवरी में दरभंगा में राहुल गाँधी ने ललित नारायण मिथिला विश्वविद्यालय में गुजरात और मोदी के विरुद्ध अपमानजनक टिप्पणी कर दी, जिस पर उन्हें तुरत माफी माँगनी पड़ी। इसलिए नहीं कि उन्हें मोदी की आलोचना का अधिकार न था, बल्कि इसलिए कि भाषण के आरंभ में स्वयं राहुल ने कहा था कि वे राजनीति करने नहीं आए हैं। अतः जैसे ही उन्होंने गुजरात पर टिप्पणी की तो उपस्थित छात्रों ने राहुल को आड़े हाथों लिया और राहुल गड़बड़ा गए!
बाबरी मस्जिद विध्वंस पर भी एक बार राहुल ने कांग्रेस को झेंपने पर ला दिया था। यह कह कर कि यदि “उन के परिवार का कोई व्यक्ति सत्ता में होता, तो मस्जिद नहीं टूटती।” यह परोक्ष रूप से कांग्रेस और प्रधानमंत्री नरसिंहराव पर ही लांछन था। उससे पहले, राहुल ने भारत के स्वतंत्रता संघर्ष को भी अपने परिवार की देन बताया था। उन के शब्द थे, “एक बार मेरा परिवार कुछ तय कर लेता है, तो उससे पीछे नहीं हट चाहे वह भारत की स्वतंत्रता हो, पाकिस्तान को तोड़ना हो या देश को 21वीं सदी में ले जाना हो।” इस एक ही वाक्य में, तीन विचित्र कथन थे। भारत के अनगिन महान स्वतंत्रता सेनानियों की हेठी, बंगलादेश के मुक्ति-संग्राम का अपमान तथा काल-गति पर दावा। यह सब बचकाना ही कहा जा सकता है।
जैसे बयान राहुल देते रहे हैं, उस से संदेह होता है। क्या वे एक बाहरी, मंदबुद्धि औसत व्यक्ति हैं, जो अपनी बात का भी अर्थ नहीं समझते? जितने साधन, सलाहकार उन्हें उपलब्ध हैं, और देश-विदेश देखने का जितना उन्हें अवसर मिला – उस से उनकी बातों में इतने हल्केपन से आश्चर्य होता है। राहुल की राजनीतिक पहलकदमियाँ अभी तक कोई प्रभाव नहीं छोड़ पाई। तेरह वर्ष से ‘भावी प्रधानमंत्री’ के रूप में राजनतिक सक्रियता का यह परिणाम शोचनीय है। क्या इसीलिए वसंत साठे जैसे वरिष्ठ कांग्रेसी प्रियंका गाँधी को लाने की माँग कर रहे थे?
राहुल के अटपटे वचन केवल भाषण देने की रौ में हुई अनचाही भूल नहीं। तहलका साप्ताहिक (सितंबर 2005) को दिए गए अपने विस्तृत साक्षात्कार में उन्होंने सोच-समझकर कहा था कि वह तो 25 वर्ष की आयु में प्रधान मंत्री बन सकते थे। केवल बूढ़े कांग्रेसियों पर दया करके उन्होंने ऐसा न किया, कि उन बूढ़ों को आदेश, निर्देश, आदि देकर क्या उन की हेठी करें! हमारे अधिकांश सांसदों के लिए एक अशोभन शब्द का प्रयोग करते हुए राहुल ने कहा था कि सासंदों को सदन में सवाल पूछना तक नहीं आता, केवल मुझे आता है। अपने पूछे एक प्रश्न का उदाहरण देते हुए राहुल ने साक्षात्कार लेने वाले पत्रकार को याद भी दिलाया, कि देखो, प्रश्न ऐसे पूछते हैं!
युवराज के उस ‘प्रथम विस्तृत साक्षात्कार’ पर जब तहलका मचा, तो कांग्रेस के चतुर-सुजानों ने उसे साक्षात्कार मानने से ही इंकार कर दिया! सफाई दी कि वह तो अनौपचारिक बात-चीत थी जिसे तहलका ने अनुचित रूप से साक्षात्कार बताकर छाप दिया। (क्या राहुल तहलका की ख्याति से भी अनजान थे?) पत्रिका पहले तो अड़ी, फिर दबाव पड़ने पर गोल-मोल तरीका अपनाकर ‘यदि कोई भूल हुई हो’, वैसा कुछ छापने के लिए खेद प्रकट किया। किंतु खेद की भाषा ही बताती थी कि वस्तुतः कोई भूल नहीं हुई थी। इसीलिए कांग्रेस ने साक्षात्कार में छपी किसी बात को चुनौती देकर बात-चीत का रिकॉर्ड सार्वजनिक करने की माँग नहीं की। इस से यही प्रमाणित हुआ कि राहुल का अहंकार और अज्ञान उस टेप में व्यवस्थित, प्रामाणिक रूप में दर्ज है।
सबसे चिंतनीय बात यह है कि तेरह वर्ष के राजनीतिक अनुभव के बाद भी राहुल कोई रचनात्मक कार्यक्रम नहीं दे पाए जिससे उन्हें जाना जाए। जबकि उनकी बात सिर-आँखों पर उठाने के लिए कई सत्ताधारी तैयार बैठे हैं। उनके चाचा और पिता, संजय और राजीव, दोनों ही अपने-अपने विशिष्ट कार्यक्रमों से जाने गए थे। वह कार्यक्रम कितने सफल हुए, वह दूसरी बात है। लेकिन उन्होंने स्वयं कुछ सोचा, योजना बनाई, और करने का यत्न किया। जबकि राहुल देश में लंबे समय से मौजूद घातक मुद्दों, तत्वों की पहचान तक करने में गड़बड़ा जाते हैं। जब पूरा देश अन्ना हजारे के बहाने भ्रष्टाचार के विरुद्ध अपना आक्रोश प्रकट कर रहा था, तो राहुल हफ्तों तक पूरे सीन से ही गायब रहे।
ऐसी स्थिति में राजनीतिक नेतृत्व की उन की सामर्थ्य अनुमान का ही विषय है। यदि बागडोर उन के हाथ आई, तब क्या वही होगा जैसे पुराने जमाने में होता था? कि भोले शाहजादे के नाम पर अदृश्य तत्व शासन करेंगे। बोफोर्स, क्वात्रोच्ची, और संदिग्ध मिशनरियों के मामले में परिवार की भूमिका ने पर्याप्त संकेत दे दिया है। परिवार के निकट रहे नेता, लेखक अरुण नेहरू कह चुके हैं कि भारत में अवैध रूप से रह रह विदेशी मिशनरियों को बाहर करने के निर्णय पर राजमाता ने आपत्ति की थी। एक अन्य मामले में न्यायमूर्ति वधवा आयोग ने ऑस्ट्रेलियाई मिशनरी दिवंगत ग्राहम स्टेंस को उड़ीसा में वनवासी हिन्दुओं का अवैध धर्मांतरण कराने में लिप्त पाया था। उस मिशनरी की विधवा को कांग्रेस नेताओं ने बड़ा राष्ट्रीय सम्मान दिया। क्यों? अभी एक खुले नक्सल समर्थक एक्टिविस्ट को एक सर्वोच्च राष्ट्रीय आयोग की समति में नियुक्त किया गया है, जब कि उसके विरुद्ध न्यायालय में राष्ट्र-द्रोह का मुकदमा चल रहा है। यह सब कौन लोग कर रहे हैं? इस पर राहुल क्या सोचते हैं, कुछ सोचते भी हैं या नहीं?
इन सब मुद्दों पर आम कांग्रेसियों की भावना निश्चय ही वह नहीं है, जो उनके आला कर रहे हैं। अतः यह संदेह निराधार नहीं कि वास्तविक शक्ति अदृश्य हाथों में जा रही है। देश-विदेश के मीडिया का एक प्रभावशाली हिस्सा राजपरिवार का प्रचार करता रहा है। वह कभी प्रश्न नहीं उठाता कि कुछ लोग देश की संवैधानिक प्रणाली से हट कर सत्ता का प्रयोग कर रहे हैं। (चर्चा तो यह भी है कि भारत के कई बड़े अंग्रेज मीडिया संस्थानों को विदेशी, मिशनरी पूँजी खरीद चुकी है। इसलिए भी उन संस्थानों का स्वर भारत-विरोधी और उग्र हिन्दू-विरोधी हुआ है।) जिस पद या समिति का देश के संविधान में कोई उल्लेख तक नहीं, वह हमारे सर्वोच्च नेताओं को निर्देश देती रहती है। यहाँ तक कि उन से हिसाब तक माँगती है। ऐसे ‘सलाहकार’ रूपी सुपर-शासक किसके प्रति जबावदेह हैं? रेसकोर्स रोड से अधिक महत्व जनपथ रखता है। यह महत्ता उन्हें देश के संविधान ने नहीं दी है, न संसद ने। तब किसने दी?
अभी उन्हीं स्वनामधन्य सुपर सलाहकारों ने सांप्रदायिकता के विरुद्ध एक ऐसे कानून का प्रस्ताव दिया है, जो स्थाई रूप से हिन्दुओं के मुँह पर ताला लगा देगा। किसी अज्ञात व्यक्ति की शिकायत पर भी कोई हिन्दू गिरफ्तार किया जा सकेगा। सांप्रदायिकता पर निगरानी करने वाली एक ऐसी अथॉरिटी बनेगी जो इस नाम पर राज्य सरकारों तक को बर्खास्त कर देगी। इस अथॉरिटी के सदस्यों में बहुसंख्या ‘अल्पसंख्कों’ की होगी। अर्थात्, यह नया कानून मानकर चलेगा कि हर हाल में, कहीं भी, कभी भी सांप्रदायिक हिंसा हिन्दू ही करेंगे, और इसलिए उसकी जाँच, विचार, तथा निर्णय करने वाली इस सुपर-अथॉरिटी में गैर-हिन्दू ही निर्णायक संख्या में होने चाहिए। अतः इस सत्ता की संरचना ही गैर-हिन्दू दबदबे की बनेगी।
न्याय, सच्चाई और संविधान के साथ ऐसा भयंकर मजाक कौन लोग कर रहे हैं? क्या धीरे-धीरे भारत पर एक प्रकार का विजातीय शासन स्थापित हो रहा है? नहीं तो अफजल-कसाब जैसों के पैरोकारों, नक्सल प्रचारकों, विदेशी मिशनरियों और पाकिस्तानी आई.एस.आई. के हम प्यालों और हर तरह के हिन्दू-विरोधियों को ऊँचे-ऊँचे स्थान कैसे मिलते जा रहे हैं? क्या राहुल इन निर्णयों का भवितव्य समझते हैं?
ऐसे प्रश्न हमारे बड़े अंग्रेजी पत्रकार नहीं पूछते। उलटे वे राहुल गाँधी को एक साँस में ही “भगवान बुद्ध, सम्राट अशोक और महात्मा गाँधी” की श्रेणी में रखकर देश को भरमाते हैं, जैसे तहलका ने किया था। इन सब के पीछे कुछ धूर्त लोगों का स्वार्थ भी हो सकता है। जिन्हें राजीव गाँधी ने ‘पावर ब्रोकर्स’ कहा था। उन्होंने कांग्रेस को ऐसे लोगों से दूर करने का प्रयास किया था। कम से कम अपने आरंभिक दिनों में वे ऐसा चाहते थे। राहुल को इन बातों पर सोचना चाहिए। वोट और सत्ता पाने, फिर उसे जैसे-तैसे अपने हाथ बनाए रखने की चाह में किए गए अविचारित कार्य कभी-कभी बहुत भारी पड़ते हैं। देश के लिए भी और नेता के लिए भी। स्वयं राजपरिवार का इतिहास इस का दुःखद उदाहरण है।

3. After Robert Vadra got married with Priyanka Gandhi, Robert's father committed suicide under mysterious circumstances, his brother found dead in his Delhi residence and his sister found dead in mysterious car accident. These reports were not published in any Indian media.
4. He has stakes in premier located Malls, of India. His stakes are in DLF IPL, and DLF itself. He was involved in CWG corruption - DLF was responsible for development of Commonwealth games, and Kalmadi gave favouritism to DLS because of Robert Vadra's direct interest and business partnership with DLF.
5. Robert Vadra owns many Hilton Hotels including Hilton Gardens New Delhi.
6. Robert Vadra's association with Kolkata Knight Ryders has never been reported by Indian media.

9. He has direct link with Italian businessman Quatrochi.
The Bureau of Civil Aviation Security has created a record of sorts by according special privilege to Robert Vadra, which entails him to walk in and out of any Indian airports without being subject to any security check. Only the President of India, Vice-President and a handful of other top dignitaries were accorded this rare distinction.

As a concerned citizen, I would like to know from the Government as to what was the special quality in Mr. Vadra that merited this rare honour. The government has no right to go in for such largesse that concerns with the security of the general public just for pleasing the son-in-law of Sonia Gandhi.


WAKE UP FELLOW INDIANS! FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION!!!!!!!

DISCOVERIES ABOUT THE NEHRU - INDIRA GANDHI FAMILY

True History of Great Congress Politicians…Please read. It will take your 5 minutes but you will come to know who are ruling our Country INDIA…..

The Nehru-Gandhi dynasty starts with the Mughal man named Ghiyasuddin Ghazi.
He was the City Kotwal i.e. police officer of Delhi prior to the uprising of 1857, under the Mughal rule.


After capturing Delhi in 1857, in the year of the mutiny, the British were slaughtering all Mughals everywhere. The British made a thorough search and killed every Mughal so that there were no future claimant to the throne of Delhi.
The Hindus on the other hand were not targeted by the British unless isolated Hindus were found to be siding with the Mughals, due to past associations. Therefore, it became customary for many Mohammedans to adopt Hindu names. So, the man Ghiyasuddin Ghazi (the word means kafir-killer) adopted a Hindu name Gangadhar Nehru and thus saved his life by the subterfuge. Ghiyasuddin Ghazi apparently used to reside on the bank of a canal (or Nehr) near the Red Fort.

Thus, he adopted the name ‘Nehru’ as the family name. Through out the world, we do not find any descendant other than that of Gangadhar, having the surname Nehru. The 13th volume of the “Encyclopedia of Indian War of Independence” (ISBN:81-261-3745-9) by M.K. Singh states it elaborately. The Government of India have been hiding this fact.

City Kotwal was an important post like today’s Commissioner of Police. It appears from Mughal records that there was no Hindu Kotwal employed. It was extremely unlikely for a Hindu to be hired for that post. Compulsorily only Mohammedans of foreign ancestry were hired for such important posts.

Jawaharlal Nehru's second sister Krishna Hutheesing also mentions in her memoirs that her grandfather was the city Kotwal of Delhi prior to 1857’s uprising when Bahadur Shah Zafar was still the sultan of Delhi. Jawaharlal Nehru, in his autobiography, states that he have seen a picture of his grandfather which portrays him like a Mughal nobleman. In that picture it appears that he was having long & very thick beard, wearing a Muslim cap and was having two swords in his hands. Jawaharlal Nehru also states in his autobiography that on their way to Agra (a seat of Mughal influence) from Delhi, the members of his grand father’s family were detained by the British. The reason for the detention was their Mughal features. They however pleaded that they were Kashmiri Pandits and thus got away. The Urdu literature of the 19th century, especially the works of Khwaja Hasan Nizami, are full of the miseries that the Mughals and Mohammedans have to face then. They also describe how Mughals escaped to other cities to save their lives. In all probability, Jawahar Nehru's Mughal grandfather and his family were among them.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Jawaharlal Nehru was a person that India adores. He was undoubtedly a very sound politician and a gifted individual. But, the Government of India has not built a memorial of Jawaharlal Nehru at his birth place 77 Mirganj in Allahabad, because it is a brothel. The entire locality is a well known red light area since long. It has not become a brothel recently, but it has been a brothel even before Jawaharlal Nehru’s birth. A portion of the same house was sold by his father Motilal Nehru to a prostitute named Lali Jaan and it came to be known as “Imambada”. If you have some doubt, you may visit the place. Several dependable sources and also encyclopedia.com & Wikipedia say this.
Motilal Nehru along with his family, later shifted to Anand Bhawan. Remember that Anand Bhawan is Jawaharlal Nehru’s ancestral house and not his birth place.

M. O. Mathai of Indian Civil Service served as the Private Secretary to Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. Mathai has written a book “Reminiscences of the Nehru Age” (ISBN-13: 9780706906219).In the book Mathai reveals that there was intense love affair between Jawaharlal Nehru and Edwina Mountbatten (wife of the last Viceroy to India, Louis Mountbatten). The romance was a source of great embarrassment for Indira Gandhi, who used to seek Maulana Abul Kalam Azad’s help in persuading her father to be little discreet about their relationship.

Nehru with lady Mountbatten (see pic)

Also Nehru had love affair with Sarojini Naidu’s daughter Padmaja Naidu, whom Nehru got appointed as the Governor of Bengal. It is revealed that he used to keep her portrait in his bed room, which Indira would often remove. It caused some tension between father and daughter.

Apart from these ladies, Pandit Nehru had an affair with a sanyasin from Benares named Shraddha Mata. She was an attractive Sanskrit scholar well versed in the ancient Indian scriptures and mythology. When she conceived out of their illicit relationship, in 1949, in a convent in Bangalore, she insisted that Nehru should marry her. But, Nehru declined that because it could affect his political career. A son was born and he was kept at a Christian Missionary Boarding School. His date of birth is estimated to be 30th May, 1949. He may be in his early sixties now. Convents in such matters maintain secrecy to prevent humiliation of the child. Though Mathai confirmed the existence of the child, no efforts have ever been made to locate him. He must have grown up as a Catholic Christian blissfully ignorant of who his father was.

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee were competitors of Jawaharlal Nehru for the post of Prime Minister of India and both of them died under mysterious circumstances.

Knowing all these facts, is there any meaning of celebrating Nehru’s birthday as Children’s Day? Presenting him as a different person to our children and hiding the truth, amounts to denying education to them.
~*~*~*~*~*~
As per the book “The great divide: Muslim separatism and partition” (ISBN-13:9788121205917) by S.C. Bhatt— Jawaharlal Nehru’s sister Vijaya Lakshmi eloped with her father’s employee Syud Hussain. Then Motilal Nehru forcefully took her back and got her married with another man named Ranjit Pandit.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Indira Priyadarshini perpetuated immorality in the Nehru dynasty. Intellectual Indira was admitted in Oxford University but driven out from there for non-performance. She was then admitted to Shantiniketan University but, Guru Dev Rabindranath Tagore chased her out for bad conduct.


After driven out of Shantiniketan, Indira became lonely as father was busy with politics and mother was dieing of tuberculosis in Switzerland. Playing with her loneliness, Feroze Khan, son of a grocer named Nawab Khan who supplied wines etc to Motilal Nehru’s household in Allahabad, was able to draw close to her. The then Governor of Maharashtra, Dr. Shriprakash warned Nehru, that Indira was having an illicit relation with Feroze Khan. Feroze Khan was then in England and he was quite sympathetic to Indira. Soon enough she changed her religion, became a Muslim woman and married Feroze Khan in a London mosque. Indira Priyadarshini Nehru changed her name to Maimuna Begum. Her mother Kamala Nehru was totally against that marriage. Nehru was not happy as conversion to Muslim will jeopardize her prospect of becoming Prime Minister.

So, Nehru asked the young man Feroze Khan to change his surname from Khan to Ghandy. It had nothing to do with change of religion from Islam to Hinduism. It was just a case of a change of name by an affidavit. And so Feroze Khan became Feroze Ghandy, though it is an inconsistent name like Bismillah Sarma. Both changed their names to fool the public of India. When they returned to India, a mock vedic marriage was instituted for public consumption. On Gandhiji's advice the spelling was changed from GHANDY to GANDHI (its a pity how the change of a little spelling in a name can change the history of a nation). Thus, Indira and her descendants got the fancy name Gandhi. Both Nehru and Gandhi are fancy names. As a chameleon changes its colour, this dynasty have been changing its name to hide its real identity.

Indira Gandhi had two sons namely Rajiv Gandhi and Sanjay Gandhi. Sanjay was originally named as Sanjiv that rhymed with Rajiv, his elder brother's name. Sanjiv was arrested by the British police for a car theft in the UK and his passport was seized. On Indira Gandhi’s direction, the then Indian Ambassador to UK, Krishna Menon misusing his power, changed his name to Sanjay and procured a new passport. Thus Sanjiv Gandhi came to be known as Sanjay Gandhi.

It is a known fact that after Rajiv's birth, Indira Gandhi and Feroze Gandhi lived separately, but they were not divorced. The book “The Nehru Dynasty” (ISBN 10:8186092005) by K. N. Rao states that the second son of Indira (or Mrs. Feroze Khan) known as Sanjay Gandhi was not the son of Feroze Gandhi. He was the son of another Muslim gentleman named Mohammad Yunus.

Interestingly Sanjay Gandhi's marriage with the Sikh girl Menaka took place in Mohammad Yunus’ house in New Delhi. Apparently Yunus was unhappy with the marriage as he wanted to get him married with a Muslim girl of his choice. It was Mohammad Yunus who cried the most when Sanjay Gandhi died in plane crash. In Yunus’ book, “Persons, Passions & Politics” (ISBN-10: 0706910176) one can discover that baby Sanjay was circumcised following Islamic custom.

It is a fact that Sanjay Gandhi used to constantly blackmail his mother Indira Gandhi, with the secret of who his real father is. Sanjay exercised a deep emotional control over his mother, which he often misused. Indira Gandhi chose to ignore his misdeeds and he was indirectly controlling the Government.

When the news of Sanjay Gandhi's death reached Indira Gandhi, her first question was “Where are his keys and his wrist watch?”. Some deep secrets about the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty seems to be hidden in those objects.The plane accident was also mysterious. It was a new plane that nosedive to a crash and yet the plane did not explode upon impact. It happens when there is no fuel. But the flight register shows that the fuel tank was made full before take-off. Indira Gandhi using undue influence of PM’s office prohibited any inquiry from taking place. So, who is the suspect?


Indira and Sanjay Gandhi

The book “The Life of Indira Nehru Gandhi” (ISBN: 9780007259304) by Katherine Frank sheds light on some of Indira Gandhi’s other love affairs. It is written that Indira’s first love was with her German teacher at Shantiniketan. Later she had affair with M. O. Mathai (father’s secretary), then Dhirendra Brahmachari (her yoga teacher) and at last with Dinesh Singh (Foreign Minister).

Former Foreign Minister K Natwar Singh made an interesting revelation about Indira Gandhi's affinity to the Mughals in his book “Profile and Letters” (ISBN: 8129102358). It states that- In 1968 Indira Gandhi as the Prime Minister of India went on an official visit to Afghanistan. Natwar Sing accompanied her as an IFS officer in duty. After having completed the day's long engagements, Indira Gandhi wanted to go out for a ride in the evening. After going a long distance in the car, Indira Gandhi wanted to visit Babur's burial place, though this was not included in the itinerary. The Afghan security officials tried to dissuade her, but she was adamant. In the end she went to that burial place. It was a deserted place. She went before Babur's grave, stood there for a few minutes with head bent down in reverence. Natwar Singh stood behind her. When Indira had finished her prayers, she turned back and told Singh “Today we have had our brush with history.” Worth to mention that Babur was the founder of Mughal rule in India, from which the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty have descended.
~*~*~*~*~*~
It is difficult to count how many institutes of higher education are named after Rajiv Gandhi but, Rajiv Gandhi himself was a person of low caliber. From 1962 to 1965, he was enrolled for a Mechanical Engineering course at Trinity College, Cambridge. But, he left Cambridge without a degree because, he could not pass exams. Next year in 1966, he joined Imperial College, London but, again left it without a degree.

K. N. Rao in the above said book alleges that Rajiv Gandhi became a Catholic to marry Sania Maino. Rajiv became Roberto. His son's name is Raul and daughter's name is Bianca. Quite cleverly the same names are presented to the people of India as Rahul and Priyanka.

In personal conduct Rajiv was very much a Mughal. On 15th August 1988 he thundered from the ramparts of the Red Fort: “Our endeavor should be to take the country to heights to which it belonged about 250-300 years ago. It was then the reign of Aurangzeb, the ‘jeziya’ master and number one temple destroyer.”

The press conference that Rajiv Gandhi gave in London after taking over as prime minister of India was very informative. In this press conference, Rajiv boasted that he is not a Hindu but a Parsi. Feroze Khan’s father and Rajiv Gandhi's paternal grandfather was a Muslim gentleman from the Junagadh area of Gujarat. This Muslim grocer by the name of Nawab Khan had married a Parsi woman after converting her to Islam. This is the source where from the myth of Rajiv being a Parsi was derived. Mind that he had no Parsi ancestor at all. His paternal grandmother had turned Muslim after having abandoned the Parsi religion to marry Nawab Khan. Surprisingly, Parsi ? Rajiv Gandhi was cremated as per Vedic rites in full view of Indian public.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Dr. Subramanian Swamy writes that Sonia Gandhi’s name was Antonia Maino. Her father was a mason. He was an activist of the notorious fascist regime of Italy and he served five years imprisonment in Russia. Sonia Gandhi have not studied beyond high school. She learnt some English from a English teaching shop named Lennox School at the Cambridge University campus. From this fact she boasts of having studied at the prestigious Cambridge University. After learning some English, she was a waitress at a restaurant in Cambridge town.

Sonia Gandhi had intense friendship with Madhavrao Scindia in the UK, which continued even after her marriage. One night at 2 AM in 1982, Madhavrao Scindia and Sonia Gandhi were caught alone together when their car met an accident near IIT Delhi main gate.

When Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi were Prime Ministers, PM’s security used to go to New Delhi and Chennai international airports to send crates of Indian treasures like temple sculptures, antiques, paintings etc to Rome. Arjun Singh as CM and later as Union Minister in charge of Culture used to organize the plunder. Unchecked by customs, they were transported to Italy to be sold in two shops named Etnica & Ganpati, owned by Sonia Gandhi’s sister Alessandra Maino Vinci.

Indira Gandhi died not because her heart or brain were pierced by bullets, but she died of loss of blood. After Indira Gandhi was fired upon, Sonia Gandhi strangely insisted that bleeding Indira Gandhi should be taken to Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, in opposite direction to AIIMS which had a contingency protocol to precisely deal with such events. After reaching Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, Sonia Gandhi changed her mind and demand that Indira Gandhi should be taken to AIIMS, thus wasting 24 valuable minutes. It is doubtful whether it was immaturity of Sonia Gandhi or a trick to speedily bring her husband to power.

Rajesh Pilot and Madhav Rao Scindia were strong contenders to the Prime Minister’s post and they were road blocks in Sonia Gandhi’s way to power. Both of them died in mysterious accidents.

There are circumstantial evidences pointing to the prima facie possibility that the Maino family have contracted LTTE to kill Rajiv Gandhi. Now a days, Sonia Gandhi is quite unabashed in having political alliance with those like MDMK, PMK and DMK who praise Rajiv Gandhi’s killers. No Indian widow would ever do that. Such circumstances are many, and raise a doubt. An investigation into Sonia’s involvement in Rajiv’s assassination is necessary. You may read Dr. Subramanian Swamy’s book “Assassination Of Rajiv Gandhi — Unasked Questions and Unanswered Queries” (ISBN : 81-220-0591-8). It contains indications of such conspiracy.
~*~*~*~*~*~
In 1992, Sonia Gandhi revived her citizenship of Italy under Article 17 of the Italian Citizenship Law.itizenship Law. Under Italian law, Rahul and Priyanka are Italian citizens because Sonia was an Italian citizen when she gave birth to them. Rahul Gandhi’s Italian is better than his Hindi. Rahul Gandhi is an Italian citizen is relevant from the fact that on 27th September 2001 he was detained by the FBI at Boston airport, USA for traveling on an Italian passport. If a law is made in India that important posts like that of President and Prime Minister should not be held by a person of foreign origin, then Rahul Gandhi automatically disqualifies to contend for the post of Prime Minister.

After finishing school education, Rahul Gandhi got admission at the St. Stephens College in New Delhi, not on merit basis but on sports quota of rifle shooting. After a brief stay there in 1989-90, he did his BA from Rollins College, Florida in 1994. Just for doing BA one need not go to the US. The very next year, in 1995 he got M.Phil. degree from Trinity College, Cambridge. The genuineness of this degree is questioned as he has done M.Phil. without doing MA. Amaratya Sen’s helping hand is thought to be behind. Many of you might have seen the famous movie “Munna Bhai MBBS”.

In 2008 Rahul Gandhi was prevented from using an auditorium of the Chandra Shekhar Azad University in Kanpur for a students’ rally. Subsequently, the Vice-Chancellor of the university, V.K. Suri, was ousted by the UP Governor. During 26/11 when the whole country was tense about how to tackle the Mumbai terror, Rahul Gandhi was lavishly partying with his friends till 5 AM. Rahul Gandhi advises austerity for all Congress members. He says it is the duty of all politicians to be austere. On the other hand he has a ministerial bungalow with a fully equipped gym. He is a regular member of at least two of the Delhi’s poshest gyms, one of which is 5-star rated. Rahul Gandhi’s trip to Chennai in 2009 to campaign for austerity cost the party more than Rs 1 Crore. Such inconsistencies show that initiatives taken by Rahul Gandhi are not his own but, workout of his party men only.

During the 2007 election campaign in Uttar Pradesh, Rahul Gandhi said that “if anyone from the Nehru-Gandhi family had been active in politics then, the Babri Masjid would not have fallen”. It doubtlessly shows his Mohammedan affiliation as a loyalty to his ancestors. On Dec 31, 2004, John M. Itty, a retired college professor in Alappuzha district of Kerala, contended that action should be taken against Rahul Gandhi and his girlfriend Juvenitta alias Veronica for staying together for three days at a resort in Kerela. It is a criminal offense under Immoral Trafficking Act as they are not married. Anyway, one more foreigner daughter-in-law is waiting to rule the tolerant Indians.

The Swiss magazine Schweizer Illustrierte’s 11th November 1991 issue revealed that Rahul Gandhi was the beneficiary of accounts worth US $2 billion controlled by his mother Sonia Gandhi. A report from the Swiss Banking Association in 2006 revealed that the combined deposits of Indian citizens are far greater than any other nation, a total of US $1.4 trillion, a figure exceeding the GDP of India. This dynasty rules greater than half of India. Ignoring the center, out of 28 states and 7 union territories, more than half of them have Congress government at any point of time. Upto Rajiv Gandhi there was Mughal rule in India, with Sonia Gandhi, the Rome rule on India have started.

The objective behind writing this article is to acquaint the citizens of India with their national leaders and show how a dynasty has misused the democracy of this country. Several prestigious national assets and schemes are named after these lose-character people to immortalize them. Many other shocking facts are not presented in this article because of lack of supporting evidence.
