Musings… I am appalled by the steps taken by US President Donald Trump and his ally Israel PM & War Criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in the Middle East. First they target and kill the Supreme Leader of a sovereign state Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and killing along with him majority of his cabinet, including hid infant granddaughter. Then Israel, already under International Criminal Court scrutiny for killing infants and children, kill more than 180 children according to latest reports, by bombing a school in Tehran. USA and Israel had blood on their hands and are giving flimsy reasons for starting the war. The irony of the Department of Peace and the Peace treaty that US President Trump initiated, stands ! If a regime change is what USA/ Israel wants in Iran, to install a dummy proxy government in Iran, then they should look at Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria where they installed Proxy governments. In these states peace is still at arms length with no vi...
Musings....... The year 2020 circa will be for long remembered as the Pandemic year for centuries to come. Even though it was named Novel Coronavirus 19 to depict that the virus outbreak happened in late 2019, the full fledged effect of Coronavirus or Covid-19 was felt world over in 2020. Looking back much has changed the world over due to the pandemic. This year showed how misplaced human priorities are- huge spending on defence while neglecting healthcare, being one such example.

The initial months of 2020 saw passing of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and NRC. The special status accorded to all the state Jammu and Kashmir was taken away and the state made into two Union Territories of J and K and Ladakh. One positive outcome of all this was that the Protests a...
Musings....... Communist Party of China and CPIM My dear friends who have been following my articles know that until recently my writings were mainly against the Right wing fascist forces of our country. However, during the lockdown a whole new aspect opened up before me when I came upon few books on Communism. That the Left wing fascism is equally relevant as the Right wing was in fact new to me. The history buff in me awakened and culminated in my two previous blogs on Left Wing Fascism. This chance encounter with communism opened up a Pandora’s box for the reader in me and my reading pattern. It is at this juncture that we heard of the unfortunate incident from Galway Valley in Ladakh UT. That 20 Indian soldiers including a colonel rank officer was killed is something really terrible and sad. I join as I’m sure whole of India would, in condemning the incident. My heart goes out to the families of the Jawans who gave up their lives for the security of the nation. After a v...
