Indians and Bank Robbers


Sensible Indians often rue the fact that invaders from prehistoric times have plundered our precious belongings while ravaging our heritage keeping long and imperishable impact in our country’s soul.

 

Our ancestors gave their blood and sweat towards making this country free from foreign rulers and making it a better place for living for us.

 

Alas! They never had dreamt of this breed of ostensible Indians, mastering the craft of fleecing fellow countrymen, else they’d have got dejected with the current scenario. 

 

Financial frauds are not new to India. The largest being  when government owned UCO bank was found to defrauded $3.2 billion (More than Rs.20,000  Crore).   The act of Nirav Modi, his uncle and ally Mehul Choksi, along with some devious bank employees of Punjab National Bank have scored the second largest financial scam in the country.  The PNB is the second largest money lender in the country and yet the way it has been defrauded points out that how easy it is for the fraudsters to manipulate the loopholes in our system. If we can add the cases like Vijay Mallya and other wilful defaulters (Banks have filed recovery suits worth Rs64,743 crore against wilful defaulters), it becomes alarming how country’s economy is getting disintegrated gradually.

 

One can assume that this is only the tip of the iceberg what we are looking at and there are many such cases, going to surface, provided unequivocal political willingness.   

 

We often brag being the largest democracy on earth and our eminent leaders whom we cast our precious mandate to elect and to serve us, always preach pro-people agenda. Incidents like Nirav Modi, Vijay Mallya and the measures initiated by government and its machineries are all post facto and it will always cast aspersions about their willingness to set right the issues. But, then in India everything is politicized and will be seen in the color of their choice.

 

Midst of all, commoners will keep on suffering as collateral of the incident yet hope to get things amended from their choicest color.

Piyali Island – Your Weekend Jaunt

More often than not, whenever we contemplate about taking a break from routine city life, our mind starts wandering about destinations pretty common to all of us.   While discussing a jaunt on a fall winter weekend amongst friends, the onus was upon me to find out a place which is close by, beautiful yet not very commonly known to masses. Instantly, the name of Piyali Island popped up in my mind.   Earlier, somewhere I’ve heard of the place but never happened to be there.   However, I’ve started scouring in the internet as well as amongst people who might be aware about it. From the internet, I got desired information to be able to put up to my association. Most of the people I asked though told me about the picnic spot Piyali which is en route to Canning, 24 Parganas (S). But, since I knew that what I was looking for I didn’t pay any heed to it.   Four of friends, including me decided to take up the excursion on Sunday, 21 st January 2018 by local t...

India And Her Malicious Neighbours

  Pakistan, as always, from its formative days has only had one point agenda, and that is to keep trying to disturb and disrupt our motherland. Despite being slapped time and again in their every malicious intention, they seem to be adamant that they will stop at nothing. All kind of atrocious activities, deception, deceit, falsehood, human right violation, patronising terrorist activity and eventually shameless denial of all proven offences seems to be in their social DNA. Day after day, they digging deep hole for their own country by trying to disturb our countries inner peace. Yet they do not have will to learn from history.   ‘OPERATION SINDOOR’ will be written in the history of mankind with a warning that there is no respite for the perpetrators involved in conspiracy against our motherland. Son & daughters of our soil will avenge them for sure. We have always believed and practised assimilation over destruction as our country’s strength. Unfortunately, Pakistan, ...

Political Entrapment

Education and health system in West Bengal is in complete dismay. Teachers are busy protesting on the roads, since they have become victim of the limitless corruption in the system. Healthcare workers too, including doctors protesting against the system for exposing them to hooliganism in their job places. Why only them, everywhere around us, we can feel a sense of anarchy has taken over. As if, this anarchism is the new normalcy for them, people of West Bengal have accepted and living their life through smart phones, in self centred cocoon into the virtual world of social media. It is not that there are not protest and rebuttal coming across, but the problem is those voices are nose diving midway either in the political whirlwind or withering away as ebb tide and being taken over by new issues. Honestly, sometimes, it feels that negative issues are becoming addictive and people are willing to discuss negativity, as past time more than seriously contemplating over their impact on our s...
