Enough is enough..!! Gimme my India back... No Telangana... bodoland... etc..!

Our country supposedly the largest democracy ( parliamentary) in the world!
But our parliament members are utterly ridiculous..! Not one of them is interested in the greater purpose of serving the nation and trying to solve the multitude of problems that has thwarted the progress of our country... Inflation, illiteracy... droughts, terrorism, poverty...Unemployment..!Instead they seem to derive the ultimate pleasure in playing blame game as always and pointing fingers at each other... as was exhibited in the most embarrassing manner at the recent Lieberhan debate in Parliament....!! No..I am not gonna be politically correct/incorrect by taking sides of either the Congress or the BJP..! Both seem to be 2 sides of the same coin...Terribly disappointing...!
And now to add to this, The centre having given in to Chandrashekar Rao's demand for a seperate state of Telangana!
I totally agree with Jawaharlal Nehru " That one can't hold a nation ransom by resorting to means such as fasting, this only defeats the very purpose of democracy."
Undoubtedly uprisings would follow suite in every state and district... demanding for seperate statehood!
Gimme back my India... This is not the India I expected to come back to... from the U.S.A. few years back..!!(:

Quite a satisfying and productive work week!

Well the last few days at work have been super busy and productive..! Have been preparing some case studies, which we plan to upload on our company's website, attending very effective training sessions on TDM & VOIP ( translatestime division multiplexing & Voice over Internet Protocol , for all you non techies out there) coupled with the regular work of drafting technical proposals interspersed with periodic research on product offerings!
Learnt a few lessons of life this week:
10% of life is made up of what happens to you, 90% of life is decided by how you react !
Don't be serious, be sincere!

Hello World.... Rummy's back ... with her rantings!

Well, I am back on the blogging circuit after a long hiatus....of more than a year! ( BTW... credit of enticing me to start blogging again goes to my cousin swathi... who recently started a blog within the family... which brought back memories of my blogging adventures and here I am restarting a whole new journey!)
The past year has been pretty eventful with 9 months of my efforts of seeking employment in Bangalore going in vain( Thanks to the screwed up economy!) making me move back to Chennai to start working for the company I used to work for earlier.( Great ...I have a job now... but the flipside is I am having to stay away from my hubby who is working and staying in Bangalore...!! sob sob...(: . So our meetings are now restricted to alternate weekends that i travel to Bangalore... cos.. i work alternate saturdays... which sucks tooo!)
I guess that's what they mean when they say"No gains without pains" ( But.... this is way too painful...!)
But atleast I am enjoying my work thoroughly ( thank god for that...!) and the respite on the weekends that I am in chennai, being provided by getaway at Neels!( My uncle/ aunt's place in Neelankari Chennai) clubbed with going to movies, plays, and relaxing in general!

Watch this space for more..!!
Cheers,
Rummy.
