Thinking aloud

Settled down @ Jammu without any major mishaps. The additional thrill of exploring new people and places is exhilarating. You know I simply love that part. I do miss my Andhra friends and my dear child, Ravichandra. For the Kerala friends who wonder when I got married and had a child, here is the story. It so happened that when Ravi's (studying in tenth class at that time) parents migrated from Udayagiri, I asked them to let him stay with me rather than putting him up in a Government Hostel. He is the best student I have seen till date and is obedient with a great character. I didn't want him to be in a hostel with minimal facilities and be distracted from his studies. Having shared accomodation with many friends, and enemies, over the years, I expected a similar experience. However, I was wrong... This boy gave me the best gift anyone could ever give. Even though he was the topper in his class tests, I started feeling jittery every time a test came up. The punishing stud...

The results are out and it has surpassed all the expectations. The grand old party is decimated and lotus bloomed in full glory... The pessimists, opportunists and hardcore fear mongers are whining. While the nation is jubilant and hopeful. What Modiji has achieved is much more than an election victory. He has made people come out in record numbers to polling booths. Even more important is the fact that the youth of this nation has moved away from being apolitical and cynical about elections and democracy. For me, this is Modiji's biggest achievement. I am sure he will guide this great civilization to the heights that it deserves. Even after that, this transformation that he has caused in the minds of young Indians will be his greatest legacy. A legacy that will live on for generations to come and will keep the world's greatest democracy the strongest one too.. Ache din aa gaye... posted from Bloggeroid

Sweated through Andhra Slept through Maharashtra Crawled across Madhyapradesh Fried by burning Uttar Pradesh Tired at Haryana Sleepless across Delhi Pleasant and sunny Punjab Breezed through Himachal Pradesh Relief at Jammu.. This was my three day trip from Nellore to Poonch in a nutshell. I reached Poonch on 9th night. At the moment, glad to be here with temperatures hovering around 17 to 25 degrees. However, it will take a few days for me to settle down. Also, my luggage will be here within 10 days only. Thereafter I will hopefully be well and truly '@ home'... posted from Bloggeroid

To the farthest possible place. Today I leave Andhra and my destination is Poonch in Jammu&Kashmir. Andhra gave me the most precious of moments and a unique relationship to cherish for the r error of my life. Will post about it later... Now it is time to move on. Wonder what destiny has in store for me... Off to Jammu!!! posted from Bloggeroid

Impressed with the BJP's manifesto. I was expecting a balancing job, but the document is much more than that. It has many interesting outlines and promises. However, no mention on article 377 is disappointing. Hoping to see positive action on that front as well., Ab Ki baar Modi sarkaar... posted from Bloggeroid

Tomorrow, the first phase of Elections 2014 will be held. This election is crucial for the nation which has been tagged as 'developing country' for far too long. The nation is held back by rampant corruption, favoritism, mismanagement and inefficient system. It is time to enshrine 'India first' as the driving force for our country so as to propel ourselves into the greatness that we deserve.. Vote responsibly... posted from Bloggeroid

Power cuts are driving me crazy out here and the temperature is set to soar with every passing day. With general elections promising to provide lots of fireworks this summer should really be hottt!!
