The Indian Judicial System-How can you fly without wings?




Let  me present to you an analogue to the Indian Judicial System.

Once upon a time exactly 64 years ago , during one of the celebrated hours of the day a child was born.Sonny was actually born on  26th January 1950.The same day his jubilant dad bought him a gift ,a 1950 model car. Even though the gift was brought in with a prologue that it would commemorate his son's birthday,it was actually meant for the whole family. The car was treated to be a priceless possession and was flaunted every time, given an opportunity.

 Things went fine,since Sonny's 10th birthday. They had their occasional drives,rides and party.Until that particular day,no one had actually realized about their ailing member in the family.Yes,the car.It was showing glimpses of ageing. All of a sudden it had started producing noises as creepy and irritating ,at times even overtaking little Sonny's screams.But his dad persisted on going on with their 10 year old friend.In another 10 years the car was no more in working condition. But dad was so adamant that,wherever they went they had to go by this car(pun intended). Now,the 20 year old Sonny who was no more a teenager had something to say."Dad,how can you expect us to go in this immovable piece?Do you expect us to push it through with our bare hands , or pull it by hiring an elephant?"But,this is what is all about when people become older their mind become more numb.Dad,was not going to lose the battle.He insisted on his decision.Being an obedient and obsessed son,Sonny took on his word.Years have gone by but the car hasn't changed let alone the purpose for which it was bought for.The car was meant to carry Sonny and his family but for the past 45 years it is Sonny and family who have been carrying this car ,in fact pushing it through.Adding to the misery ,the car had never undergone single repair(excuse the pun).It has traveled untrodden paths,imagine how much strain Sonny would have undergone.

 Sonny is now 68 years old and oh yes the car is still with him,looks like a messed up combination of rusty metals all around.

The serious malayalee and a light movie.Perfect retardation!

Aanandam a movie portraying the story of a college tour, released in 2016 is not the talk of this write-up. But yes it is!  Being a lazy movie buff I often get into this habit of prolonged movie watching spree. And that's how I got to see this movie a few days back on Television. During the time of it's release, I still remember my "over-hyped" movie critic friends tagging it as an extremely "Panjara" movie. One of the DQ(aka Dulquer Salman)fan who was all praise for a movie like "Bangalore Days" seemed very disappointed by this effort. In fact, I thought his gang in college would like this movie the most. Given, the fact that they were the No.1 "Panjara" team in my class and the first thing I was reminded of was their gang, after watching the film. Now that college is over this discussion is irrelevant. Sorry "Panjara" team! Coming back to the movie. Honestly speaking(Oh! Forgot the fact that I was writing), I wishe...

Prologue

  Silence, pin-drop silence! I knew someone had to initiate a conversation, otherwise the situation was not heading for a “bright future”. The sound of cool air pumped out from the AC vents and some aggressive gear-shifts made by Ravi’s father, that was the only audible thing until then. The old Hyundai Santro had a really nice AC that, even I was shivering at the back.             “Lucky me! Just missed! Otherwise I’d have been taken by them too. Man, you are having a really bad time.” At last I broke the silence, by delivering the carefully made out sentence which I had been thinking since we got into the car from Police Station.             “Exactly! What worse could happen? We were just discussing things at the shop next to the college entrance. Seemed like it was all planned. Somebody sold us out.” Ravi replied with a gust of anger and disappointment.              “Like it’...

I did it again!

"Can I ask you a question?" asked this girl.  "Yeah, that'll be fun!" I replied back. "You know that blog, which you wrote about your crush. Who was it?" The sharpness of the question shot me down. If it wasn't for this girl, I would have said the name without hesitation. Crushes or Infatuations are common for boys unless for some nerds. My thought of being a nerd was proven wrong when I got a higher rank in Engineering entrance. 36087 is a great number, but it was more of a statement that I was no less a common boy. I had few crushes in college. A couple of which I still ponder on. It did not happen at the very same time. That'd seem inappropriate. One in first year and the other distributed around the last 2 years.  By the end of my first year at college, I knew I had something going on with a girl. But the fact that there were too many bees buzzing around her head, made it a short-lived one. It was Christmas which incited the...
