The Whistle For The 2019 Political Battle Is Blown And The Bahubali Ready

ON THE VERY FIRST DAY OF 2019, with an exclusive interview to the ANI, Narendra Bahubali made his intentions crystal clear. That the Bahubali is not gratified with just one term and is ready to battle for the another. For the critics, it would be interesting to find out if there is going to be any Katappa or it’ll be a Katappa-less battle.

Ok, let's be serious. Politics is a serious subject, no? Let’s talk about Smita Prakash who seems to be Mr Modi's preferred choice of journalists in order to move and shake the political discourse of the nation. Speaking of her, I must tell you, the lady is a very great listener. To interview someone like Modi, you need to be a good listener rather than a good speaker. Because, you know, he goes on and on… and on. Eventually, he ends up wooing you. Though not if you have some predefined political goals or loyalty to a particular party.

The interview was much-needed from him to upgrade his party’s morale for the bigger battle ahead and to shatter hope of the opposition. The loss in the simultaneous assembly elections of MP, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Telangana says it loud and clear ― that after the dream of acchhe din having been busted, the commoners' trust in the Bahubali is wearing off. Most part of the interview appears to be scripted or staged. But overall the interview served its purpose of providing the nation with excellent entertainment. Unsurprisingly, it was more entertaining than the 2018 Bollywood movies of Khans.

The prime minister has answered all itchy questions quite comfortably which only means that he came fully prepared. But his answers erased the doubts whether he is finding himself in a weaker position for being unable to keep promises made in the 2014 election or with mistakes made by his government in the last four years.

I’ve written a short article, obviously because writing long piece takes time and research while I’m already full with my assignments. I just couldn’t let the story of Modi’s interview simply pass under my nose. That's why this short piece. Needless to say, there will be more to come. There is still time for the real battle to commence after all.

Does India As A State Obliged Towards Her Citizens For Providing Them Employment?

As the Modi-led BJP government has failed to rescue India from Job crisis in its five-year term, the question is whether the government has done enough to maintain the equilibrium in the job market of the country? And whether or not the government should be held liable for creating this crisis in the first place? Screenshot from movie 3 idiots Article 41 {Right to work, to education and to public assistance in certain cases} under DPSP says: “The State shall, within the limits of its economic capacity and development, make effective provision for securing the right to work, to education and to public assistance in cases of unemployment, old age, sickness and disablement, and in other cases of undeserved want.” The DPSP cannot be enforced by any court, but the principles laid down in this part are nevertheless fundamental in the governance of the country, and it should be the duty of the State to apply these principles in making laws. We also need to look back to Mo...

Accidental Prime Minister Compels India To Talk Manmohan Singh And Corruption Before Election, A Review

The media advisor to former prime minister Manmohan Singh, with his boring job, has been able to commercialize a story of his boss right to the screen. No one would have imagined this possibility when the book was launched in the midst of the 2014 election; when it also made a buzz with the allegations giving birth to controversies. But with the change of government after the election, things cooled down and people forgot their highly qualified yet good-for-nothing economist PM. Only till next election though. ⭐⭐ (2/5) Directed by - Vijay Ratnakar Gutte Starring - Anupam Kher, Akshaye Khanna, Suzanne Bernert Storyline: Non-fiction, dramatized biography of former PM Manmohan Singh Prime characters Sanjay Baru: Media advisor to the PM and the narrator Manmohan Singh: The Accidental Prime Minister (2003-2014) Sonia Gandhi: The villain-in-chief, is an evil Italian woman using proxies to get hold of power and control things remotely through Manmohan Singh Rahul Gandhi: ...

The Anglo-Saxon Period - The Development of English Language

The Anglo-Saxon period is a time in history when groups of people from northern Europe, mainly the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes, moved to Britain. This happened around the 5th to 11th centuries AD, after the Romans left Britain. These tribes settled in what is now England and parts of Scotland, bringing their language, culture, and way of life. During this time, they formed small kingdoms, farmed the land, and fought battles with each other and against invaders like the Vikings later on. Their language became what we now call Old English, which is an early form of the English we speak today. The period ended in 1066 when the Normans, led by William the Conqueror, invaded and took over England. Historical Context Timeframe: Roughly 410 AD to 1066 AD . Start: Roman withdrawal from Britain around 410 AD left a power vacuum, enabling Germanic tribes to settle. End: The Norman Conquest in 1066 marked a shift to Norman rule and the transition to Middle English. Migration: The Angles, Saxon...

Exploring the Anglo-Norman Period in English Literature

The Anglo-Norman period in English literature, roughly spanning from the Norman Conquest of 1066 to the mid-14th century, represents a pivotal era of transformation in the literary landscape of England. This period, initiated by William the Conqueror’s victory at the Battle of Hastings, brought profound cultural and linguistic changes that reshaped the production and development of literature in England. Below, we explore this dynamic period by examining its historical context, the dominance of French and Latin literature, the persistence and evolution of English literary traditions, and the lasting influence on the trajectory of English literature. Historical and Linguistic Context The Norman Conquest of 1066 marked a significant turning point for England, introducing a new ruling class of Norman French speakers. This event established a linguistic hierarchy : French became the language of the court, administration, and the elite; Latin remained the language of the church and sch...

Sanjay Dutt Hero Or Villain? A Review Of Sanju Baba’s Journey As Both

The Sanjay Dutt biopic “Sanju” was released on 29th of June made by one of the best filmmakers of the B-town, Rajkumar Hirani. It was marketed as an “unbelievably true story”. Indeed Dutt’s journey is unbelievable. However, there have been many unbelievable personalities too such as Dawood or Osama. Sorry for comparing Dutt with Don and Terrorist. The drugs, booze, women, and AK 56 make Sanju a largely negative character in the real world. Not his fault, according to the film. Some people say Sanjay Dutt doesn’t deserve a biopic as there are many “good” people, with their “good” work, that go unnoticed. The argument over whether Dutt deserves a biopic or not is inane. It’s like saying Dhoni’s biopic should have been made after his retirement. The truth is, biopics are made on interesting people, not the good ones, especially if it is of commercial in nature. If that interesting people is a negative character, it gets more publicity. Also, a “fictional” biopic cannot be real. Be i...

The Marvels Of Board Exams

AFTER AN EXHILARATING HOLI, comes the boring and haunting board exam, the exam for which no amount of preparation gives an impression of sufficiency. Students across the nation get excited as well as depressed. They are ‘excitingly depressed’. Excited to give the final exam of their school life, to enter into a new world, and depressed thinking what society would say if their marks won't be that good. Sharma Ji’s meritorious child is making things worse. While the level of questions asked in the exams has become easy these days, the quality of students being produced is decreasing, WhatsApp, Social Media and expansion of internet are to blame. The internet and smartphones may help students in their higher studies, but it misfires in case of younger kids. It only serves as a distraction, the biggest of modern times. Earlier, when kids go out to play some sports , it was treated as a distraction from studies. But now, it has been understood clearly that it wasn't seeing...

A Glimpse Into The Life Of India's Most Trusted Batsman - Rahul Dravid and The World Cup

image credits- Chubby Chandru THE LEGENDARY CRICKETER, Rahul Dravid has finally quenched his desire of lifting a Cricket World Cup, though not as a skipper, not even as a player — but as a coach. Undoubtedly, it is the hard work of the boys involved in the game, who give their output on the ground and are directly responsible for the results. However, the hard work needs to be in the right direction and like any other sport, in cricket too, the team needs a right strategy to win the game. That's when the role of experience comes in, and who is better experienced than “the wall” himself. At his time, he was the most-trusted batsman of the Indian team. He performed when everyone else in the team surrender. He is the one who absorbed the deadly bowling attacks with remarkable ease. He is the one who rescued the team from the jaws of a humiliating defeat. He is the one who set up a massive target for the opponents and by the mere presence of the wall shatters their hopes. ...
