Alvida

-

Ik begane sheher me 
Safar shuru kiya tha humne
Na socha tha ki itne
Gehre rang ye chhodega apne

Faasle na rakhne diye 
Is haseen Dilli ne koi 
Har boond me apna naam bhar diya isne

Inhi boondon ki baarish aaj 
Aankhon se ho chali hai 
Dilli ki hi mitti aaj bheeg rahi hai 


Apna banana iss sheher ko 
Kumzor Dil ke bas ki nahi 
Hum to bilkul mulayam aaye the 
Socho Hume bhi bahadur bana Diya isne 

Saath le ja rahe hai dosti ka khazana 
Aisi shayad hi fir kabhi takdeer mil paegi 
Ke badh chale hum ek ek kadam manzil ki oor 
Aur saath dosti ki khushboo jaegi 

Na socha tha ke roenge kabhi 
Sheher to ye chhodna hi tha hume
Magar himmat aage badhne ki bhi issi sheher ne di hai
Aaj roenge us himmat se hi 

Alvida kehti hun aaj 
Inn sadko ko inn galiyon ko 
Inn doston ko Iss begane sheher ko 
Na chahkar bhi tujhme ghul gayi hun Mai 
Dekh ... Shayad ab Mera rang tujhme kahi dikhne lage ...

When The Buddha Smiled on India...

On 12 th October 1973, David Davies- a geophysicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who worked on seismic detection of underground nuclear tests- predicted that India would be the sixth country to conduct nuclear weapon tests. After 7 months he was proven correct by the ingenuity of Indian scientists and the fortitude of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Canada sold a 40 megawatt Canadian-Indian Reactor, U.S. (CIRUS) to India in 1956. India had the necessary manpower and capacity to develop and test a nuclear weapon. The heavy water needed to control Nuclear Fission had been provided by the US. So what made India abstain from performing the nuclear test and from becoming the first Nuclear Power? It is probably the chaste intention to maintain a mellow camaraderie with the other countries or a mere lack of grit in the Indian leadership. Meanwhile India refused to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation treaty in 1970.  When questioned over it, our ambassador ...

Do you know what a breathalyzer is? The device that cops use to estimate whether a driver is drunk or not. Yes that one in which you breath into the device and it tells you whether you have had alcohol. Well, if there were a breathalyzer to detect the level of stress in a person at a certain point of time we would all be taking the test. It would become a household commodity like the weighing scale. People would measure stress every morning before leaving home and every night before sleeping. Psychiatrists and Psychologists would make you take the test before they call you in for an appointment. Now imagine if this device could measure the stress according to the category of stress - the alcohol analogy would be: measuring the alcohol content by the type of alcohol; how much whisky, how much beer, how much wine and how much vodka has been consumed? Take -stress due to family issues, stress due to social issues, stress due to personal issues, stress due to workplace issues and so on.....
