When i first saw you i was very happy but at the same time i was so scared i had spent months on reading books and articles online on how to take care of you.Since i was not lucky enough to have my mom on my side , i tried reading everything possible about newborns and how to handle them and was keeping my fingers crossed that i had done enough research.I saw your face for the first time in the operation theater ,i could hardly see anything since i was sedated and was really scared and you were swollen and red.Nobody had told me that newborns looked that way just after their birth.i didnt see you properly for first three days.i was in pain and was also suffering with depression.I finally saw your face properly after i started breastfeeding you after three days.it was middle of the  night and you were sleeping next to me,as advised by the doctor to enhance my milk production.I looked at you ,you were not crying and you stared at me instead,i can never for that look for the rest of...

Two days a friend from a local mira road paper called me,”did you hear about the SC decision on dance bars,tell me your party’s stance I am doing a piece on that”,I honestly hadn’t put any thought on that.I told him that I will check with the senior party member and tell him.I felt a bit embarrassed actually, that  I had actually not put any thought on that, It’s a big burning issue of the area where we work “Mira Road’ as we have a lot of “Live Orchestras “ there inspite of a ban. I knew that a lot of illegal activities including human traffic goes on under the name of dance bars,we ourselves have on a few occasions rescued minor girls who were being sold off  in the area.But suddenly I remember a girl,a 25 year old ,former bar dancer.This girl used to come to support us during the Anna Andolan,we always saw her in the crowd. One of  our members ,Amishaji used to have conversation with her on a lot of occasions. Later I saw Amishji giving her children’s books and clo...

‘If you control the oil you control the country; if you control food, you control the population’ Henry Kissinger declared in the 1970’s,  Farmers face unique risks unlike those in other professions. Weather and market conditions outside a producer’s control can have a devastating effect on producers. Agriculture is not a profitable business, it can b e clearly understood from the fact that the amount of money involved in growing one kg of wheat is more than the cost.To grow wheat we need seeds,fertilizers ,water,electricity ,insecticides and manpower.No wonder so many farmers commit suicide every year due to the failure of crops and loan sharks.Every twelve minutes a farmer in india tries to commit suicide. Its not difficult to understand the importance of farmers and farming sans any figures.We need food to survive and they are the ones who give their lives to serve us.As our late prime minister said  “Jai Jawan ,Jai Kisan”  ,the weight in these words are more...

I have been active on Facebook since the start of anna movement, before that I was just a woman who was frustrated with the rotten system and who would occasionally beat up eve teasers like most of the girls of my city,my social service was limited to that. But as the event of 16th Aug 2011 unfolded I found a lot of people who were now connected on  social media and all of them were frustrated with the corrupt and rotten system the way I was. We all became friends, shared ideas on social media ,all of us wanted to change the corrupt system. But lately things have changed on social media,people are now talking about religion and communal tension. The corrupt system against we came together seems to be lost now. I have  a big question…..What is religion ,for which so many people are willing to kill each other, even kill innocent children. What is this religion? People who were friends, neighbors and countrymen are now thirsty for each other’s blood. I am not a communist, ...
