About 40 activists of a self-styled pro-Hindu moral brigade called Sri Rama Sena forcibly barged into a pub in the coastal city of Mangalore at around 4pm on 24th December claiming unethical activities were on inside and bashed up a few young girls for “violating traditional Indian norms”. In a TV grab I can see many women falling to the ground, atleast two girls were punched and their hair pulled by the activists at the pub Amnesia – The Lounge in Mangalore, about 350 km from Bangalore……
“Assassination is never as easy as picking up a rifle and pulling the trigger, assassination is never an accident. Yes, murder could be an accident but not assassination. In this case of Gandhi, it could never be”….”I am going to assassinate him in the open, before the public, because I am going to do it as my duty. If I do it surreptitiously, it becomes a crime in my own eyes. I will not try to escape, I will surrender and naturally I will be hanged. One assassination, one hanging. I don’t want two executions for one assassination.”- Nathuram Godse to Nana-Apte and Veer Savarkar
“Gandhi systematically fooled the people by saying, ‘I’ll accept the Partition of the country over my dead body.’ But still he partitioned India. So we killed him…”
So, till this day, I have never regreted being one of the conspirators in Gandhi’s assassination. In fact, many of Nathuram’s friends told me after my release, ‘Nathuram ni gadhav pana kela, tyani majha chance ghalavla’……
Today is Saturday. No office. Last five days I spent in office with a very high level of frustration with absolutely no work, staring monitor for all day and expecting a mail with some work. Finally weekend is here and now I don’t need to wait for mail. I can enjoy and sleep at home. Today I woke up at 12 PM because last night I went to bed at 4 AM. I made double egg omelette as breakfast cum lunch at around 1 PM. Watched TV for a couple of hours. Checked my mails and orkut scrapbook…..
I don’t know I should regret my decision to go for Satyam, the last company came for recruitment in my college or feel myself lucky to witness the fall of India’s fourth largest IT Company and its recovery after that. At present I don’t know what is going to happen with me and 50,000 employees like me. It was very truly said by Mr Ramalinga Raju that we are riding on a Tiger without knowing how to get off from it without being eaten. I know everyone is doing his best to save this company. Even govt. is taking all possible steps…..
