Holiday
Spend the day updating my other blog (http://pushkarbhat.blogspot.com). In fact wote a cool article on one of the books I have read recently. Sort of a critique of the same.
Rest of the day was spent in housekeeping activities. Plan to take my wife and kid out today in the evening.. Let hope that the little one gets up in time.
Have been coming across a lot of mails on Anti-reservation protests in the last two weeks. Having experienced the Mandal-I agitation its surprising how a lot of action and organising has sponteneously moved online over the last couple of years. I guess Indian democracy runs on the basis on which side can get maximum number of people on the street. The net has however changed that. Petitiononline a petition website has collected independently verifiable petitions from over 1,000,000 people online in the lastr couple of days and all this with out brigning people to the streets. Guess Arjun Singhji will have to spend a huge amount of moneis to get that kind of mob on the streets of Delhi. IF he manages it then god save India because they will be able to bring the country to a standstill in many ways..
Had ready the world is flat some months ago. Guess the level playing field which had been tilted away and against the GREAT INDIAN MIDDLE CLASS by the powers to be has been levelled again..
Have fun and take care till you hear from me the next time.
