ANTI TERRORIST DAY-MY EXPERIANCE






“We the people of India having abiding faith in our countries tradition of non violence ,tolerance, hereby solemnly affirm to oppose within our strength, all forms of terrorism and violence .We pledge to uphold and promote peace ,social harmony and understanding on all our fellow human beings and fight the forces of disruption threatening human lives and values”
This is the pledge the staff and peoples representatives taken on 21st May 2011 ,the anti terrorist day, the day on which our former Prime Minster Sri Rajiv Gandhi was killed by Tamil LTTE at Sri Perubathur in 1991.I would like to record my experience on that day. The way in which the Party workers paid homage to the departed leader.
I was returning from my uncles house at Kottayam in Malabar Express.Started my journey at 11.00 PM .I got upper birth and had a nice sleep over there. By 5 AM I felt for urination and got down from the sleeper. My eye fell on the news paper read by a person sitting on the side seat.”Rajiv Gandhi Kollappettu”.I just couldn’t be leave the news for I have seen the person in Manglore exactly one week back at a hand distance. He was seen very elegent,pleasent,enthusiastic and busy in election campaign. I was then studying for my BEd at Manglore.Rajivji got down in an Helicopter at Mangala Stadium and was walking along the road Although there were security threats he very bravely walked along side people who came to watch the Prime Minister. On seeing the news in the news paper I thought it could be a dream for there were news of terrorist aiming at Rajivji especially LTTE.Soon I realised that what everybody has speculated has come true The most energetic Prime Minister of India is no more. I watched outside .The train had reached Koilandy Station .After much delay train has again started the journey. People were murmuring about possible untoward incidents around. Soon a sudden break stopped the train .A mob is seen marching towards the train .” Illa ningal marichittilla Jeevikkunnu Nhangaliloode” mob is seen little bit violent and there was a threat of stone pelting. Shutters of the train came down. And everywhere there was tension. We just couldn’t realise the real situation. We even thought that we will also be killed and the entire nation is under threat. Remember that we are not still out of our sleep. After Half an hour we realised that the mob is just Congress Party workers. Slowly the shutters were raised and we slowly came out of the train to see the procession. Passengers just wanted the train to start the journey but the mob had another idea. It is revealed that Bandh was called for and the Train will be released only by evening 6 O’clock.We were hoping that party workers who were sitting in front of the train would withdraw soon. We are thinking that since we have not done anything wrong about this incident and we are helpless passengers and there is no means in punishing us with hunger and starvation. Since this was the end of May there was scroching heat no water to drink .Nothing to say about basic requirements like bath and toilet. The situation of Toilet is unexplainable. No water, filled with foul smell. Party workers are not heeding to respond to the request of the passengers .People around the place felt pity on us and they were distributing drinking water in buckets much for our relief. We were spending time wandering, snoozing at interval. By noon I am not even able to open my eyes due to hunger. For the first time in life I felt what hunger is all about. Much for our relief “KANHI” was supplied by the villagers .That was the most tasty “Kanhi” I ever had in my life.Each of us got a glass of “kanhi” mixed with coconut.In the “Kanhi” I was searching for rice.Truely speaking there weren’t many. After all these suffering the train started by 5 P M in the evening after 12 hours of rail block. The place were the train was blocked was about two Kilometres from Koilandy,the place is known as Kollam.
Ironically after 13 years of this incident I got married from the very place Kollam at a walk able distance from the place. Whatever the reason may be it is really surprising coincidence.
The train reached Kasaragod by 8 o’ clock.By the there was no way to reach my house .I took a room for rent and resumed the journey in the next moring.
That was not the time of Mobile Phones. The agony the family members had, starvation and the difficulties people had due to this incident.Even the departed soul of Rajiv Gandhi will regret the act of putting the people in dismay. by observing Bandh which is not declared early. Then what is the use of such a bandh if it does not please the person on whose behalf of all this fuss took place was not pleased. This is the experience I had. How many such incidents took place during the Bandh and Hartal in Kerala.
If some body is truly loyal to any departed soul what the followers should do is to abstain from exhorting hartal or Bnadh and put the innocent people in difficulty.
If Hartal is declared sufficiently early people enjoy it by having drinks,Biriyani and doing all the bad things against all values. In my opinion let the people do their work with special commitment on such day and pay homage to the departed soul.

Salim Kumar-Myayavi...kyapi kudikkunno ? ihahahahaha...uyyo


Sri Salim Kumarv malayalam movie actor is no more an actor who deliver ugly dialoges to make the audiance laugh for their money.But he is now recognised as one of the best actor in India.He is seen in most of the films these days Salim Kumar is known as a comedian,who with his typical laughter ,twist of words was popular among the cini followers.But I have noticed glimpses of a great actor in him in some of his charactors.Say for example the simple role he had in "Perumazhakkalam" The charector is that of an old man,innocent who is a pescimist in himself about the consequences and has a hungry stomach and has a special taste for food.In "Achante Makan","Manikyakkallu" there were glimpses of a helplsess man who has sustained the wrong part of the life and keep himself simple by hiding sorrows.The comedy for him is just a polish over that helplessness and agony.
This will do a lot good for the malayalam film and will most probably change equations of a good film and a good actor.The conventional feeling is that great actors should be handsome,heroic the charector they handle should not have any blemish.Let the talented directors search actors who can deliver good results naturally.They should be provided good platfroms to flourish.They should'nt just be used to manure the super stars and help to add greatness to super stars.The common man should also change the attitude for enjoiying films.Films should be a mirror of true life . Only love, violance and persons with supernatural powers will not make good films.There are lot of other things in life which we cannot keep away.Then only we can say that the film industry has some social commitment.Otherwise it will just be an industry which harm the mankind.
Although late it is glad that Sukumarichechi was also awarded.There are so many other actors in Malayalam movies whose best has not yet come out and there are amny outside the industry who are talented.Let such people are recognised and film industry may bring a social reform to the community.

EKAHA BHAJAN





Ekah Bahajan May 8th is the day on which ekaha bhajan is performed at Durgaparameshwari Bhajana Mandira Mulleria.Bhajan is performed un interrupted from sunset on 8th upto sunset on 9th .It is never easy to have an un interrupted bhajan these days .But this is performed every year.Thanks for the devotees of Mulleria and some bhajana Sangha of the adjusent areas.Paike Krishna bhat who himself is a devotee and beleaves that the best way of devotion is to offer bhajan.He leads and almost uncompromisingly stick on to the traditional custom even during this modern era.Bhajan is started with a prayer to goddess to help the devotees to complete the Ekaha bhajan successfully.There will be some tough time in between for short of people to participate in the bhajan.But in the end bhajan will be completed successfully.Bhajana Snagha from the adjuscent areas come and offer their bhajan and they will be provided one hour to two hours for singing bhajans.Their will be reserve men from the local people who at the time of interval will supliment with their part.People assemble and offer prayers and give donations for the programme.Their will be ‘annadana’ after noon pooja and almost 300 people come to have the prasada bhojana.
The key man behind the successful conduct of the bhajan is Sri Krishna Bhat.Who should be addressed as ''purandaradasa'' of Mulleria.He puts in a committed effort .According to him Bhajan is the best way to please god.He is UNcompromising in his goal. This has attracted ill feeling from the people.People wants programmes other than bhajans.But according to K Bhat bahajana mandir is the place were bhajan has to be performed there is no scope for other art forms.Many people consider K bhat to be standing as hurdle on the way for the prosperity of the bhajana mandir.But the real fact is that very existence of the Bhajana Mnadir is due to the commitment of this humble devotee.Apart from ekaha bhajan bhajan is being performed every Saturday and on every special occasion Sri K Bhat aproches people and find sponsors for each bhajan programme.Truely an ardent follower of bhajan.
Last Sunday we have completed another ekaha bhajan very successfully.

Heroes Who can be emulated


Heroes-Icons for the future generations
This is the common question raised by parents who wish their children to be a great citizen of India and who wish their children to emulate great icons of their Nation. In the long past there were great icons in India in the form of polititions,scientists,sportsmen whose selfless service for the glory of the Nation thrilled their followers and quiet largely influenced their life. We had great Mahathma Gandhi ,Togore,Dhyan Chand,Jawaharlal Nehru,B R Ambedkar,Saints like Guru Nanank,Sree Narayana Guru.They were blemishless and had won the hearts of many an Indians with their selfless total commitment. They are all now out dated and are not with us.Of course we have,great heroes in our epics Sri Krishna,Sri Rama,Md Nabi and Jesus Christ. But the need of the hour is that we need contemporary heroes who live life parallel to us and set examples for the citizens.
We have political heroes sportsmen, and scientists diplomats, industrialists officials. But some were we see the blemish of being the fact that either the field in which they work on is tainted or they use their glory or heroism for the benefit of their personal material gain.
Politicians wants their position in the party to be secured and even the old men wish to protect their seat .At least they want their family members to be their successors. Ours is The largest republic in the world.Here the election is fought with muscle power and money power. Still there are many in Indian and Kerala politics who can be emulated as roll models.Atal Vajpay,A K Antony,V S Achuthanandan. But the evel part of politics is that their effort goes unnoticed and they do not gain any momentum in their effort.
In Cricket we have great icons like Sachin Tendulkar,the master blaster is still going strong and even surprise the young cricketers.He is known for his commitment towards his profession. But still there are doubts about his leadership qualitieees and his will power to deliver the good things, at the time of crisis.He too is gaining a lot of money out of Cricket.One can assess his greatness not just by the fact that what he does on the feild to gain money but by what he does with the money for the service of the humanity.We cheer him and admire him because he play cricket and play for our nation. But here we don’t get answer to our question of emulating the great characters..Tendulkar is a great icon striving hard for his success as a cricketer, and further he sets himself example of being a great family man And almost a blemishless character in himself as a person.But what about his commitment to the society. Say the least it is not the way by advertising international soft drinks or any products of international brand to be promoted in the poor country.
Money factor has become the measuring scale of every man in India One person is assessed to be successful in life for the salary he has and how much he gain outside his salary by saving time from office or accepting bribes .How well he shines in real estate work and hoe far he help his wife to become ‘Kodipathy’ in insurance policy work. How well he betray his job doner or his family members or friends in the effort to strive forward in life. People are assessed or measured like this and they are not scanned for the path they travelled .We relish by reading the sensational stories of Ambani Brothers,Sasi Tharur and brings out a deep breath after recognising the fact that their single day expense is above one lakh.For a developing contry this is not befetting.When the working parameter is money people accept such people as their heroes and sets the goal on making money rather than selecting the right path for a successful life.
Even this is the real fact people in large wish their leaders to be blemish less .It is due to the unrest and fatigue that people are forced to divert themselves towards evil. When it is noticed that there is no remedy in the near future the attention is distracted.
Till recent times media was a great relief for the common people to know the truth. But what we see is that each media represent certain political parties and work for them.Truth is hidden and poor people do not get the right information. Sincerity of journalism is no more and often we see the tug between the media and politicians and politicians prevail in the end and media become the force of the politicians.
The last assembly election in Kerala gives the crystal example of media influence. The trend is changed every now and then and people are put in confused state.No developmental issues are discussed during the campaign. But the personal issues of the leaders are discussed in large It is a pity that even the educated people of Kerala are distracted by all this fuss.
It should be mentioned that there is a ray of of hope has not vanished but the greatness of democracy still prevail and people are looking for great icons.
The recent support Sri Baba Amte got through internet for the satyagraha against corruption is a glorious example in this regard. Even people has started to call him second Gandhi.People spontaneously realises the good will of the people and are ready to follow them and support them.Sri V S Achuthandan is popular in Kerla because people think that he is dead against corruption.
WE NEED ICONS WHO CAN BE EMULATED .LETS HOPE THAT IT WONT BE LONG BEFORE SUCH ICONS WILL EMERGE AND OUR COUNTRY WILL RISE TO GREAT HEIGHTS AND PEOPLE WILL RECOGNISE THE FACT THAT THIS NATION IS GODS OWN COUNTRY.
JHAI HIND
