Happy Republic Day 2020. Salute to those resisting CAA and NRC

-
While singing the national anthem and saluting the Indian flag on Republic Day this year, let us stand in solidarity with the lakhs of citizens who are fighting and struggling to protect our Constitution and our citizenship. Those participating in the mass movement against CAA and NRC are not less courageous than our soldiers who fight enemy forces at the borders. The risks of injury, death, imprisonment etc. for those participating are grave -- perhaps physically less so than the hazards endured by soldiers. But they face grave social and political hazards -- the hazards of being singled out and punished with abuse of police powers and judicial machinery.
Those of us who aren't braving the cold at Shaheen Bagh or Lucknow's Clock Tower like thousands of our brothers and sisters, must salute their sacrifice while singing the national anthem this year. #CAA #NRC #RepublicDay2020 #NationalAnthem IN SOLIDARITY Krishnaraj Rao 9821588114 and 8169471229 krish.kkphoto@gmail.com

Short story: The faithful wife

-
[Friendship, love and trust have many meanings. This is an erotic story about all those beautiful emotions.] He lay awake in bed, waiting for her to finish her kitchen winding-up chores and join him. By the time she came in and began undressing for bed, he was very nearly asleep. With drowsy eyes, he gazed at her taking off her saree. She had grown a bit plump of late, but it only made him love her more. "There is more of you to hug now than when I married you," he sighed, wrapping his arms and legs around her in the dim light of the bedlamp. "This is sheer luxury!" She reciprocated by kissing him, and then turned around, determined to fall asleep quickly. Tomorrow was another tough day ahead, and she would have to cook a full formal lunch, keeping in mind his guest. Not just the daal-chaval that she made on days when she was feeling tired. "Turn off the lights, please," she said sleepily. "Not yet," he breathed in her ear. "Let me ...

Here's something the media never reports: "Anaadi courts" are the instrumentality by which the State deprives tens of thousands of Indian citizens of their Fundamental Right to Life & Liberty. Without due process.

This is happening daily, without interruption. Hello... Are the Chief Justices listening? Like  ·  Comment  ·  Share
