Is Singh not the King anymore ?

Let me tell you some incidents in the recent Indian political history, you may or may not have heard about them, but those incidents did influence the 21st century of India. It would be a non-linear narration.

*****

Scene 8
NDA lose the elections in 2004, Congress party makes big gains. Sonia Gandhi, as told by media 'sacrifices' the post of Prime Minister and Manmohan Singh is asked to lead the country. But, some say that the then President Abdul Kalam spoiled Sonia Gandhi's plans and there was no sacrifice but only a scapegoat who would be sacrificed. National media recollects Manmohan Singh's liberal economic policies and suggests that this would be an important chapter in Indian history, it was an important chapter but for other reasons.

Scene 3
After the death of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, Sikh genocide followed when Rajiv Gandhi was the Prime Minister of India. By the end of 1980's the exponential rise of BJP and other regional parties had made sure that Congress had to rely on other political forces unlike the monopoly which it enjoyed for many decades.


Scene 1
Indira Gandhi is studiously taking forward her father's legacy of Socialism and in the mean time, there was a silent revolution which started inf few parts of the country. Subramanian Swamy proposes his liberal ideas on how to improve the Indian Economy and not surprisingly there are hardly any takers in the Congress party and Indira Gandhi referred to Subramanian Swamy as 'Santa Claus with unrealistic ideas'.

Queen's Kitchen Cabinet and other thoughts

“Let this be stated upfront. Muslims need not be apologetic at all in demanding a law positively biased towards them when it comes to the issue of targeted violence” 
The above quote is by National Advisory Council (NAC) member Farah Naqvi on the Communal Violence Bill (CVB) proposed by the NAC, headed by Sonia Gandhi.

During the pre-emergency and emergency days, Indira Gandhi had close associates and advisers who used to take part in making important decisions over the functioning of the Government, it was called "Kitchen Cabinet". The "Kitchen Cabinet" was accused of favoring a family instead of country. The "Kitchen Cabinet" had ministers, bureaucrats and 'family members'. The family members who are not part of Government took crucial decisions and had to face questions from other quarters. Indira Gandhi's "Kitchen Cabinet" is history. But the foundations for Dynasty politics that were firmly laid continue to go strong even today. It should not come as a surprise that the current Government has its own "Kitchen Cabinet".

The National Advisory Council (NAC) headed by Sonia Gandhi is the "Kitchen Cabinet" of the UPA (or) of the Congress to be precise. There are some differences between the Kitchen Cabinet of the 1970's and the present one.
  • Most of the members of the Kitchen Cabinet are not ministers or bureaucrats.
  • Kitchen Cabinet does not report to the Prime Minister.
  • The 70's Kitchen Cabinet mostly comprised of elected representatives and the current one majorly consists of self-styled social activists.
  • The 70's Kitchen Cabinet didn't exist legally, but the current one exists on papers.

Friedrich Nietzsche: The Joker or The Batman?

  • 0
This may be repetitive and clumsy but i have to quote it again, i borrowed the analysis of Friedrich Nietzsche from one of his work while debating with a Maoist sympathizer who was quoting Karl Marx,  Che Guevera etc...
“When the exceptional man handles the mediocre man with more delicate fingers than he applies to himself or to his equals, this is not merely kindness of heart—it is simply his duty… . Whom do I hate most heartily among the rabbles of today? The rabble of Socialists, the apostles to the Chandala, who undermine the workingman’s instincts, his pleasure, his feeling of contentment with his petty existence—who make him envious and teach him revenge… . Wrong never lies in unequal rights; it lies in the assertion of “equal” rights… . What is bad? But I have already answered: all that proceeds from weakness, from envy, from revenge. The anarchist and the Christian have the same ancestry… .”
I am quite sure that the subject of 'Misinterpretations of Friedrich Nietzsche' would occupy more pages than the his actual works. Every ideology across the spectrum was influenced by the works of Friedrich Nietzsche and most of them deliberately misinterpreted his works and some misunderstood his works.

Anarchists have their own idiosyncratic imagination when it comes to the interpretation of Friedrich Nietzsche, they try hard to reach the line of "Hence Proved" to make others digest the fake that Friedrich Nietzsche was an Anarchist.


Christopher Nolan was accused of being insensitive to the Occupy Wall Street protests, as his film 'The Dark Knight Rises' allegedly ridiculed the protests and Nolan in an interview after the release of 'The Dark Knight Rises' said...
I think truly threatening villains are the ones who have a coherent ideology behind what they’re saying. The challenge in applying that to The Joker was to have part of the ideology be anarchic and a lack of ideology in a sense. But it’s a very specific, laid-out lack of ideology, so it becomes, paradoxically, an ideology in itself.

'Looper' and its loose connections

It wouldn't be wrong to say that what you read below is a bit far-fetched and comes closer to an uninteresting conspiracy theory but I have my own reasons to project them. I being an individualist and a film-noir fan for many years, it wouldn't be an instance of random and meaningless case of shooting in the dark, but it would be a strong case of a molecular study or observation of a specific genre of films and the style perceived by a filmmaker.


Rian Johnson’s "Looper" is termed as a science fiction action film. It contains 'science, fiction and action'. I experienced the feeling of micro epiphany while watching 'Looper', because I was able to relate it with the works of Jean-Pierre Melville. I warn the reader not to proceed further not because of the spoilers but due to the scope of being ridiculous is high and you may miss the fun when if you haven’t watched it. So, read at your own risk.


The first scene of the film vaguely deceives the average viewer but at the same time it directly projects the profession of the protagonist, which is explained in detail later in the film. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays the role of 'Joe Simmons' who is a looper working for a precarious organization. Joe is single and lives alone in his apartment which is neatly structured. I couldn't resist comparing the dark latitude of cinematography of the apartment with that of Jean-Pierre Melville’s masterpiece 'Le Samourai'. I felt that this shot is quite significant and would have skipped my attention if I weren't an ardent fan of Melville's works. I need not stress the importance of Jef Costello’s room in 'Le Samourai' for film critics and scholars; I guess the same amount of assertiveness in the character can be linked to Joe Simmons.


Most part of the film happens in 2044 and the narrator informs us that in future time travel is invented and the people from future contact them and explains us the concept of ‘Loop’ the role of a 'Looper' and how one ends his own loop. In 'Le Samourai' due to dramatic turn of events, or should I say due to (lack of conventional melodramatic) turn of events, Jef Costello is wanted by the police and the mafia and he has to find a way to come out of the nested loop, so is the case with Joe Simmons who is running away from the crime syndicate and he is also following and running away from himself (This is where the genre of science fiction fits)

"The Hindoo" under a firangi princox.

It’s no surprise that the pamphleteer of the organized Left in the sickular land is now led by a modern jholawala. To be honest, I have to admit that I was an ardent reader of this semi red fiction paper for its quality when compared with its rivals and I have to confess that I committed a heinous crime (long back), when I persuaded many of my friends to change their reading habits, I am quite sure that I’ll pay for this sin.

Update: It seems that Sid V has resigned, check the tweet here

Sid V's appointment was constantly challenged by Subramanian Swamy


Just updated the this screenshots, thanks to Subramanian Swamy for his efforts
So, what made me write this post? The answer would be an easy one. It is because of the firangi jholawala princox. The answer is simple and many fan boys and ex-fan boys turned secret admirers would obviously demand justifications - I would give my justifications, explanations and analysis unlike its Editor (in Chef?), who clips off the truth and adds masala to come out with pseudo-intellectual stuff.

For centuries, organized religions of this planet have mastered the art of brainwashing souls and the erstwhile Soviets did it with force, and with quotes of equality (Of course, these chants resulted in virtual doomsday though..) and the media, especially the Left Liberal and the organized Left had to adopt this brainwashing procedure to make its ideology survive. Yes, they did it well and they still do it even though they are exposed repeatedly, but the exposes doesn't impact them as the institutions of this sickular nation have already been brainwashed or they are hijacked and strongly controlled by the reds. Allow me to jump into the crazy world of 'allegations' now.
