Trump for Kaveri

Hi all,
I have believed in justice and the Constitution always. Of course I am not Ambedkar or the other lawyers out there capable of ripping through the pages and what we usually call as capable of doing an U-turn. The point is I know my essential basic rights and duties as a citizen of this country.

With the recent happenings in Cauvery water dispute, I kind of felt that what we read in our text books is just there in the paper and reality is totally different.
What we were taught in our schools was that India is a secular and democratic country, and every citizen of the country is entitled to follow his or her own beliefs without affecting the society in way, and we used to believe that we show unity in diversity.
Unfortunately that's not the case which is happening, everywhere we have some issues and whenever and wherever possible we get into the region or race or religious politics.
There have been instances even during this disastrous time that people showed enormous compassion and helped people in distress, but it is the problem with some people that it affects the majority others.
I am not pro or con to the judgement nor am I qualified to comment on it, but my only concern is that when somebody overrules the law and disobeys the judgement it is a serious concern and if it is the government which is doing this, it is natural that the fellow citizens follow the same.
If the government is not abiding the law, fellow citizens obviously won't.
I have lived in Bangalore for more than six years now and I have always felt it is a nice place to live in, every city will have its own flavour and like ways have its own pros and cons.
I have felt most of times that people are friendly and some times abusive of race or region as well. It is natural fit people to feel threatened when they are out of their comfort zones, and even a small dissent may be perceived as a scary thing to put up with.
It is not the common public who have problems with fellow people, it is the people who have vested interests who want to gain political mileage or publicity or people who are in the TRP race, and unfortunately it is the common public who are only going to face loss in all formats possible are being used for this and the sad ending to the story is that they do not even realize that they are being used and they are mere puppets and strings are pulled by some one sitting in an AC room with no sense or connect  to actual happenings.
The problem with us is that, we like to follow the law when we want things in line with law and we don't follow it when law is against us, and we would say Law was prepared in stone age period and it is not up to date with new age practices.
Am not blaming Karnataka alone here, it is with Tamilnadu as well, everyone of us do this.
In Tamilnadu,  Chief minister of the state is unwell and the details of her health is unknown. Governor of the state is hardly in the state and nobody has any clue who has to do that duty now, and people are being arrested in accusations of spreading rumors.
If that's the case the state can simply make an official announcement of what is the exact situation and be  transparent. There is one thing which people say about network security, it is not by hiding details you say you are secure, it is by being open and then prove you are secure.
Unfortunately that's not happening anywhere in our country.
And whenever a bad issue happens, people go with caste politics or racial politics fully and divert the attention from the actual issue as far as possible.
This problem I feel is not just in our country, it's everywhere. The same people who opposed blacks in US now feel it is wrong and support Hilary now as Trump says he is against Blacks.
And there are some women who have now gone public in saying Trump misbehaved with them years back.
It is only after a particular person grows, haters come into the scene, and try all kind of politics.
And then there are some Indians who are currently residing in US actively campaigning for elections without realizing the following.
1. They do not have voting rights.
2. 99% of the people who receive their updates are same set of people who won't be voting in US election.
3. They never bothered about the elections back home.
As the popular saying goes, all of us are tagged with a caste in our street, place outside our hometown, state outside our state and we become Indian only after we cross the border.
But then, again there are some responsible people as well and it is for a fact that only due to the irresponsible ones that responsible ones turn irresponsible.
Like the conditions apply tag which comes with people, there are some people like me who are like Mannana veppenna velakenna, enda oorla election nadanda enaku ena.
Like the surgical strike evidence which we demand from our army, if we had asked for evidences of Kaveri committee, their data collection points and their findings for so many years things would have been different.
As a cue to Trump's team for wooing the eligible voting NRI population remember Kaveri issue and Biriyani.
It can do wonders which rajinikanth can't.
Bye till next,
