Focusing on the COVID-19 global pandemic, this books examines the
global unpreparedness to the crisis, as well the inequal struggle
across the world to deal with it. As those in power found it
difficult to handle the virus, certain small and efficient
countries governed by engineers and/or economics gladly listened to
their medical specialists and better protected their people. After
examining this, as well as the impact on democracy worldwide, the
work presents a way forward, demonstrating how we can securely and
productively move ahead.
Why the inherently faulty dream of Iqbal and Jinnah continues to
irrigate the evil roots of the 'Pakistan's India fixation'-and how
communal and international shadows -falling on the IPR, do not
allow some enegizing sunlight to fall upon this genetically weak
relationship, is dwelt upon, uncommonly beautifully,inthiswork.
This book discards what is apparent and goes to the depths of the
IAP-answering why its continuitly is essential for the very
existence of Pakistan. Why, without the glue of PIA, the 'nation of
Pure (Pak)' runs the danger of crumbling like a ball of moist sand,
is explained herein. Further, it analyzes and lists the ten key
'stake-holders of Pakistan'. Which is topped by the Pak army and at
its very bottom rests the public. This formation of the author
postulates that, except for the Pakistani public, 'Indo-Pak peace'
is highly toxic to basic interests and well being of its other nine
stake-holders. Why and how the Pakistani army and its politicians
and diplomats, under willing and or unwilling collabration by the
other six stake-holders, raise unreasonable demands upon India-to
make sure thate no movement towards peace between the two
neighbours is made in any meeting or conference, is exposed in a
decisively convincing manner. How talks take place for the sake of
talks-and participants shake hands or shout undiplomatically for
the benefit of their respective audience and constituencies too is
dwelt upon. Diplomats and politicians of the two conflicting
nations often behave and act as well-rehearsed characters of an
often stage drama.
This book takes an indepth look at the monster of terrorism beyond
its normal evil manifestations. It examines terrorism with Lord
Krishna's technology of handling evil and evildoers, which as per
the great Lord's divine approach should include: An indepth
analysis of the problem including its causatives; Intense and
persuasive dialogue with evil generators-persuading them to give up
the unrighteous and unsustainable path of terror; Applying swift
and crushing blows with requisite multiple thrusts on those not
responding positively to crush such terror perpetrators and the
terror infrastructure; and Employing a suitable package of the
elements of 'Gandhian Philosophy' on the hearts and minds of evil
doers in order to stop regeneration and re-sprouting of roots,
shoots, seeds, and braches of so crushed terror and terrorists for
a permanent and satisfying change. The 'Current Fortified Strategy'
of handling terrorism can be assembled to take care of the first
three requirements but it remains devoid of any component efforts
to effectively handle the root causes of terrorism which emerge
from misguided human hearts and minds. 'Gandhian Philosophy' is
rich in such 'Brahmastras', which on sustained application, can
decisively and completely root out all thought formations of terror
and terrorism. The reader is bound to appreciate this truth on
going through the uncommon approach of this work.
Indians' relationship with Subhash Chandra Bose, both at thought as
well as dialogue level, has been deeply emotional. In January 1941,
he left us to wage a war for liberating us from the British
occupation and then-with almost five years of brilliant struggle
and some glorious battles-disappeared, causing an unending myth and
mystery. Through heroic acts of omission and commission, Bose
raised himself on our mental screen to the status of a deity. Three
commissions/committees of inquiry and vigorous files
declassification dramas have answered nothing about his
death/disappearance-and with each passing day, our emotional
connect with the great freedom fighter gets deeper and deeper.
Affected by the emotional load and resultant nostalgia, large
section of Indians feel that things would have been different, or
much better, for India had Bose been true to his 'Delhi Chalo' call
or command-and then took over as the first Prime Minister of
independent India. What would have happened in that event? What
directions India's socio-economic development and international
relations would have taken? These and many associated issues have
been examined in this work, that is part fiction and part
commentary on circumstances through which our great hero worked and
fought. This work is not a biography but a fan's tribute to India's
greatest revolutionary.
