Ayodhya Solution

Ayodhya has raised its head yet again thanks to the BJP. Congress is sure to condemn it. Both of them are just that - stupid (the political parties i mean). Ayodhya is a non-issue as far as i am concerned. They are just raised by these parties either to evoke emotions (of the wrong kind) or to employ the divide and rule principle.


Religion is one of the most important factors that divides people. It creates hatred, doubt and violence among groups. Irony is that, religion is also an important factor that unites people. It gives a sense of belongingness, peace and identity to people. But thanks to our thoughtlessness we just fight among ourselves in the name of religion.


Of all the religions in this world, India is unique in a way that each and every religion will find a representative in our country. Now this calls for more violence and hatred. 


Only one religion is present in India that actually brings people together. One religion that is superior to all other religions. One religion that causes common pain and common joy. One religion that unites people of our motherland beyond caste, age, economic well being and other social norms. I think we need to give this religion a chance to wash out the Ayodhya issue.


The religion i am talking about is CRICKET. The entire country is united when it comes to cricket. We forget everything (hatred included) when we watch cricket. Why not build a cricket stadium in the disputed land of Ayodhya and give peace and harmony a chance to thrive? 


Let us rejoice on that "disputed" land when India wins a match and sulk when we lose. At least we all will be united be it victory or defeat. Unity among ourselves is all that matters.

P.S. This is entirely my opinion. I do not mean to hurt any religious sentiments of anyone.

Cricket: Is India going the Paki way?

Yup I know … even the thought of our beloved country going down the paki way is repulsive. Even I don’t feel comfortable comparing us with a nation where scumbags are bred, only to attack other peace loving nations. But some of events in the past few days, made me think otherwise.

We all know the way SL cricketers were air lifted after the bomb blasts in PAK. I don’t see cricket being played in PAK in the immediate future.

Back home, there have been various threats and unfortunate incidents in the past few days. All this puts the future of cricket matches played at home into serious doubt. Recent threats being
- Blast in Pune
-       Shiv Sena not to allow Aussies play in Mumbai
- Terror threat - Jaipur ODI
-       AP Govt boycotting IPL since hyderabad is not on the IPL menu (venue rather)
-       Media boycotting IPL due to stringent broadcasting rules
-       Naxals going beserck and killing people at will

Strange thing here is, we have more internal problems than external. So, can the Shiv Sena, AP Govt and the media please shut up and help resolve the pertinent problem of external terror and naxals?

United we stand, Divided we fall !
