Year 2003 every one thought India now has started his journey from where it left in 1984 when the contingent of 15 men under the commandment of Kapil Dev left, yes the year India made it to the finals of 2003 ICC World Cup. Although the result were dismay for India but never mind at the end of the day some one has to put their head down and some one has to be  boisterous with joy. In recent  time India has always shown a dismal performance at the International stage, be it some “onsite” tour or some domestic encounters. The reason is crystal clear, cricket engagements is now limited to some bacchanalian parties, high price tagged commercials and pompous grandiloquence status in society.

The chorus might have not change the theme of their song but yes the beats are certainly heading toward new tone and notes. The much talked about IPL was in news for some recent weeks, when it was revealed and some senior members of the IPL team were under allegations for venal crime. Obviously a country with cricket as the second religion you can expect such crime and it is not bad to considered it as a venial undertaking, for the first time from pinnacle of the pyramid to the grass root level of the system it was clear that IPL is one of the most corrupt body of India, a system where money is flowing in the hands of game maker, among such names are Lalit Modi, Sharad Pawar.

Being an Indian I am used to such kind of scams in India, as the old man says, you are not a good politician if you are not evolved in such allegations of scam, the politics did not leave Shashi Tharoor, one of the most learned politicians of India nominated for UN, has some unmatched publications. The gloomy news for this new episode is the appointment of new ICC president Mr. Sharad Pawar, the smoke of the IPL scam is yet to abate, the news of such magnitude is setting a new epitome for corruption. Mr. Pawar who is also under suspect of being envlolved in IPL scam is all set to lead the International cricket.

The shocking news was when one of the Australian contender was thrown out of the race. In the lights of what are the achievements of Mr.  Pawar, I am in now ways surprised to see him the ICC President, considering that now whole cricket fraternity is corrupt, obviously the brethren court needs who can adjust well the room.

Part – II of the sad story is the current position in India political ambience which he has been holding. The food minister, well  Annapurna is the name given to the one who provides food. Well the stats I have don’t show a very promising achievements for our Union Agriculture minister, or may be sinister. India is ranked 88th on world food Hunger Index, now that’s what I call a paramount achievement when you are the Agriculture Minister of the country.  With IPL allegation and with such international stats on Indian Hunger Index I am confident enough that Mr. Pawar will add new dimensions to the cricketing fraternity in his rule.

On a personal level, I am least bothered about these things s long as I am getting my salary and bread to eat I am more than happy to watch cricket with a bowl of popcorn and jug bear, but when I share this news on a national bench, with patriotism I find I have to agitate the motion once again and bring the resentment among the masses again. Clearly the Indian have a chronic problem of amnesia where they grant amnesty to all who might have committed the  most brutal crimes.

Giving the verbose flow of my thoughts a pause I end up saying that in a country like India cricket is the best crop to reap on, Mr Pawar’s stake in IPL and BCCI will help him to get this job done even more meticulously.

15 Aug, 1947 is a memorable day for all of us, it embarked a new era of freedom where any and every Indian is free, not politically but socially. There was no punitive government who would debase us, rather a political body that stands on democratic grounds. Every new born life is not bound in chains of slavery, no wraith of white skin on us. Its is the day what we call today FREEDOM, thas independence we are talking about.

Over the years we are celebrating this event with sublime zeal. The very thought of this day unites us all, a day where every one stand for a common cause, under a common tri-color. Folks on roads can laught without seeking any one’s permission. However another day is also kept under consideration, 1992, where our biosterous citizen were given the right to trade freely, there were no painstaking in opening a new firm, we call it three pillars for the modern uproaring Indian economy , we call it  Globalization. That was the time and today, India has undobtly has changed leaps and bound.

From mud roads where kids muddled to turf flyovers in cities, not only infrastructes changed, Indian society also saw some new trends where women were given a healthy status,  education flourished like never before, life style is flipside what was decades ago. Sounds perfect ! we are among those spectators who are watching only one side of the coin. This time grass on the other side of the  fence is slight pale and even dried.

With the advent of IT in India, mushroom number of IT oppurtunity have gone up, the IT pool can be said to be at its pinnacle. In all this we have not seen one thing, the growing concern among fellow citizen. With population as the source behind these beautifull IT endeavours, there is no shortage of technical man power, this has now become a problem for the man power itself.  The It company are now treating employees nothing more than a technical labour, some time worse than that. A 10 hours of work by no standards can be called humans, I still remember a time when a software geek was a matter of respect, now its just flipside.

With such a hectic schedule of work we hardly get any time for our personal life. People often work from home to keep their supervisor happy, or the very next day he would has his replacement, this is in turn increasing the stress level. The client is considered as a god for these IT boss, what ever they said is considered to be final verdict, there is no argument on that, for me it is no different from what India was before 1947. A simple mistake from any folk is considered to be gaffe, for which there is only denunciation. Is this what we dreamt of as Independent India.

No doubt with such IT boom, and oppurtunity we have got many things, but the play which I am watching might have a very ruthless ending. I am still a naive to this, may be some one better can comment or may be rectify me.

Looking forward to hear from you !!!
