Sacrifice & Jealousy two shades of love

                                      Romeo and Juliet and Othello are the two excellent works of the greatest man in the history of mankind William Shakespeare. The both play written in very dramatic style keeping “Love” as a centre theme for both of the play but the plot and story of the play is very much different from each other in which William Shakespeare explained us two different shades of love “sacrifice” and “jealousy”  both and explained us the harmful effect of them . Romeo and Juliet are about young love and how it faces and overcomes difficulties while Othello is about the way a love is destroyed by an outsider. To understand the concept of these plays one has think from heart and not from the brain to really enjoy it. Because all the dialogues and situations used in the play give us deep emotional touch.

                                   Further, Shakespeare writes every moment of every scene to bring out its drama, texture and poetic richness. If a character is angry, they speak of that; lovesick, they speak of their heavy heart; vengeful, they speak of the joys of vengeance. Each moment he creates heightens the drama of that particular moment. Describing characters, events, environments as if from rote, while the dramatic richness of what should be the heightened moments of a scene are held back for some revelation or plot effect. Shakespeare is both a master of the moment, the scene, the act, the story. He presents passionate, feeling characters in full flower, not as seeds set to bloom late in fall. In romeo and Juliet he present the lovesickness of romeo and ability to do anything for the love and other side in the play Othello has been shown as the angry and dark  side of love is presented in a a very tragedian way to create the interest of the audience what is going to happen next.

                          In Romeo and Juliet  Shakespeare shown the failure of world to understand the meaning of love he presented the true correct picture of the society were love is restricted by the caste , status of the society were the people have failed to understand the significance and importance of love in the person’s life. Love speaks no language it is directly connected to heart is proven by showing how person from two enemy families fall in love. Shakespeare also presented the sacrificing shade of love in an entertaining way. While in Othello Shakespeare shown how jealousy can murder the love and how misunderstanding in love became the biggest pain in love. It has shown possessiveness nature of Othello towards its wife Desdemona. Othello’s inability to relate to individuals on a personal basis makes him a poor judge of character. It was proven in a series of intrigues in which Iago slowly convinces Othello of Desdemona’s infidelity with Cassio.

                            The theme and ending of both the dramas are very much different from each other in Romeo and Juliet Shakespeare message was to the society not to come between love and in Othello Shakespeare massage was to all the couples of society to trust their partner in relationship.

                                                                       

 

      

          Tihar jail: Ultimate shopping destination

 

                           "The darker side always heavier than the lighter side" the perceptions of people about jail is the place where all the bad people of the society are kept behind the bars. So their criminal mind doesn’t play games and spoil social environment again as they are responsible for their lamentable behaviour. But in true terms jail is not the place to punish but to get better out of the person and make them responsible member of society. Tihar jail has understood the correct definition of jail by switching prison to shopping centre.

                           Earlier Tihar Jail was famous as the home of famous politically background criminals with the likes of Shahabuddin and Pappu Yadav but know it is slowly changing its identity by becoming one of the best manufacturing unit of the country. Its factory comprises of baking, carpentry, weaving, tailoring, oil extraction, paper-making and shoe-making.

                         All the products manufactured with the hard work of the prisoners and all the products are ISO certified and of better quality, reasonable price compare to its competitors in the market. Its main objective is to convert its inmates into normal members of the society by providing them with useful skills, education and rules. Various government departments such as Directorate of education, Social welfare department, Industrial training institutes, Polytechnic colleges, Delhi high court Navy and Parliament house, various cooperation’s and Tribunals etc are the main purchaser of Tihar Jail products.

                        There is always a debate on the wages given to the prisoners they are exploited by giving low wages. There income is categorised in to three parts skilled worker get Rs 52 per day, semi skilled worker gets Rs 44 per day and unskilled worker gets 40 per day. It is certainly not the reward for their master work in this inflation era. The jail authorities need to take this problem seriously.

                       For everyone home is paradise but the Tihar jail authorities shaped jail as a paradise for prisoners. They are provided with many facilities like education, health check-up, yoga and all the festival from Diwali to Holi are celebrated in a great way. Many prisoners after their jail term become so skilled that they start their own business after the training they get from jail. Tihar jail is not only jail but a employment guarantee factory.

 New face of terrorism in India

                      The snake named “Terrorism” has covered the globe. Terrorism is like a cancer that is finishing the nations internally .Terrorism has changed its meaning in India know it is not the Muslim terror groups like al-quada are responsible for terror attacks in India but Hindu groups are playing their part and forgetting the definition of humanity and giving a new definition of terrorism. Why terrorism is becoming stronger in India? Is India is paying price of being a secular country.

                      There is rise of Hindu groups from sadhu pragya to swami Asnanand are all responsible of destroying the image of sadhu’s in India.  In recent years, the Indian Muslims have started talking about Hindu terrorism as if all the problems in Kashmir and elsewhere in India are mostly due to the Hindu intolerance towards Muslims. They have successfully fooled few third rated thinkers with their half truths and some politicians at times like to promote Muslim’s views of Hindu terrorism. Because of this, in India, recently a new term is coined – the ‘Saffron terror’, which is allegedly inspired by Hindu fundamentalism. Since Saffron terror is relatively a newer issue, the present author wants to discuss a bit about the origin and the significance of the Saffron and how much link does it have with terrorism. Therefore there are sufficient evidences that the holy Saffron color has nothing to do with terrorism. Rather it had been associated with sacrifice and salvation. The Hindu ‘Sanyasis’ (a Hindu who has no attachments to worldly things) and the Buddhist monks who have left their home in search of the ultimate truth had been wearing this color for several thousand years before the birth of Islam. The term Saffron terror is a deliberate misinformation. Muslims use this term for obvious reasons and some Indian politicians use it for Muslim sycophancy. This is the famous vote-bank politics of India

                      In most of the recent attacks hindu terrorism is played its major role from Samjota express blast to Ajmar bomb and mainly on muslim places is going to create serious problem in the country’s atmosphere. Rahul Ghandhi already said it “Hindu terrorism is more dangerous than Al-quada. Unity among the people is the only medicine will going to solve disease named “Hindu Terrorism”

       

      Journalists are real detective     

                            

                             The world around has became a den of fast growing changes and evolutions. With the transforming social trends, and progressing economic fashions, the global scenario has indeed became a spectacle profound evolvement. The field of journalism which firmly and aptly reflects the transforming social scenario across the world has also immensely redefined itself. Formerly concerned only with informing people about the prevailing situations, journalism job is now elevated to becoming a global platform for creating news, rather than depicting just plain truth.

                              

                           There is mixture of political and investigative journalism in India they are the two main pillars of media and people are more interested in this type of journalism it not only increase the TRP of a particular channel or newspaper but people also develop the identity regarding journalists as a solider of the society that against all the illegal happening in the society and bring out truth in front of the people. Since the 1980s when investigative journalism emerged in India the Bofors scandal is considered one of the first and most influential pieces of Indian investigative journalism. This scandal involved the Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi who was accused of receiving kickbacks from the Bofurs Company. In 1996 another land mark case emerged when the story of the fodder scam broke. This scam again involved the Indian government as it was stated that embezzlement from the treasury of the Indian state Bihar has been ongoing.  The 2G spectrum, CWG scam and Adarsh society are the recent and successful cases of investigative journalism.   

                   

                            Modern investigative journalism is a discipline, rigorous and demanding. Modern journalism despite its many aberration, is considered the most effective monitor and upholder of democratic values. Democracy involves accountability of elected representatives and civil servants. There are many mechanisms for checks and balances, but these can be abused, circumvented, ignored or made ineffective. Investigative reporting steps in to this vacuum to scrutinise and expose the wrong – doings of those in authority which hurt public interest and make them accountable to the people.

“We have emotions like you”

                                                 

                               You will find us in busy market, railway station or celebrating somebody else happiness. People call us by different names some call us hijra, transgender while other call us third gender of India. No one give us true respect in the society and we can’t do anything about it even god has failed to give us justice than whom to look for respect. When we talk about our “identity” people laughed on us they say “look who is talking about identity whom even destiny failed to write about their future.

                             The Hijras of India are a religious community of ascribed intersexual who worship Bahuchara Mata, the Mother Goddess, and share the experienced gender identity of women. Culturally defined as neither men nor women, the role of the hijras is based on sexual impotence and functions as a third gender. Although marginalized, the hijras have found a positive alternative within the Hindu belief system that sanctions their impotence and associates it with the powers of the religious ascetic. “In Indian reality, the impotent man is seen as ‘useless, an empty vessel, and fit for nothing’ because he is unable to procreate.

                            It is the responsibility of ideal government to look out for the things that are going to benefit the citizen of the country. India run their government with emotions and culture as there two fundamentals and it give respect to every citizen of the country. So the great government has also come to help the transgender community to find out their identity in our own country. The Election Commission was the first to do it , and the Unique Identification Authority of India [ UIDAI] has followed the example- the transgenders of India are finally being recognised by its government. Enrolment forms of the UIDAI will have a third column –“T” for Transgender-along with the ‘M’ and ‘F’ for Male and Female respectively.

                             Our  government is in right direction doing something for the welfare of community but the ground reality is much worst for the transgender’s. Poverty and unemployment has brought them on street for begging they are struggling for food to eat so most of the “Hijras" lives in most parts of India and are known to depend, at least partly, for their livelihood on working as male prostitutes. Most hijras are castrated males and dress as females. In addition to a large section of the hijra community, there are many full-time or part-time male prostitutes in India. Some of them live in red-light areas of metropolitan cities; many seek male clients by offering massage services in parks, beaches, hotels, and houses. The prevalence of HIV was higher among men having sex with Hijras (14%) or with all 3 genders (13%) than among men having sex with men and women (8%). Every year out 100 /20 hijras are dying due to sexually transmitted diseases. If they were not suffering from poverty they won’t involved in such sexual practices because poverty is one dangerous disease in which human mind can’t be controlled. Government should start focusing on creating employment opportunities by opening small scale factories, workshops to generate employment for them and also it is your turn to do something for your neighbours who is struggling for their survival.   

                           

                                

                       

                                 

Yellow Face of Media

 Is India taking on yellow journalism over real journalism?

                                        Is really yellow journalism overtaken the real journalism in India? But what actually a yellow journalism is? Yellow journalism doesn’t mean reading yellow newspaper or viewing yellow screen news bulletin.  It means presenting the simple news in more dramatic way and in sensational manner just to attract the audience or to catch the reader’s attention towards the news. The term yellow journalism originated during the American Gilded Age of the late nineteenth century with the circulation battles between Joseph Pulitzer's New York World and William Randolph Hearst's New York Journal. The battle peaked from 1895 to about 1898, and historical usage often refers specifically to this period. The New York Press coined the term "yellow kid journalism" in early 1897 after a then-popular comic strip to describe the down market papers of Pulitzer and Hearst, which both published versions of it during a circulation war. Yellow Journalism is a mutated division of Journalism that goes against the key principles of reporting as an unbiased and objective tool for conveying the news. Yellow Journalism is "journalism that exploits, distorts, or exaggerates the news to create sensations and attract readers." Yellow journalism 'believes' in a gross misreporting and underreporting of facts, in playing up news that is likely to create a frenzy, stringing an emotional chord with the masses, feeding the appetite for sensationalism, scandal mongering and exciting public opinion It is mostly done to increase the publicity

                                    Print and broadcast media both use yellow journalism in different way newspaper uses large fonts, dramatic colours; irrelelevant and theatrical photography are used in an attempt to embellish the most trivial news. At the same time the language used for the bold headlines or newsflashes in inflaming and exaggerated forcing the reader or viewer to halt abruptly and take notice. The media often plays along with the rumour mill not bothering to verify fact, faking quotes and printing bogus interviews. On the other hand broadcast media use sensational videos, images and use dramatic presentation just to increase TRP [Television rating points].

                                     Indian media just to sensationalise the issue involve celebrity in the news they are covering the news because it has involvement of the big personalities they are forgetting the main identity to aware and help the common man who is fighting from various social dilemmas of the society. But other side of the coin it has been said that “need create want” knower days people are more interested in reading about the life celebrity rather than problems of the country.  So Media is also more focusing on yellow journalism rather than on real journalism.

                                     From Sahid- Kareena kiss case[DNA] to Delhi school teacher Uma karuna case [INDIA TV] are all the example of the misreporting of facts by the media just to create publicity and to increase the TRP’s. Indian media need to more focus on reality rather than on yellow journalism. If media is not presenting true facts then whom to believe?  The media should take more concentration in presenting correct facts rather focusing on yellow journalism.

“Today’s unacceptable word”  

What is truth very few have remembered its meaning. The word loss its significance only and only because of us. The word became a mystery knower days. Truth is like a river that starts pure from its chore and later mix with selfishness,corruption, greediness, dishonesty and other bad things in the society.Truth cannot be same its identity keep on changing from time to time, person to person and from society to society. Whatever may be truth in one person eye it may be the biggest fraud in another person eye so one cannot define the actual definition of truth.

                                                   It involves both the quality of "faithfulness, fidelity, loyalty, sincerity, and veracity “and that of "agreement with fact or reality". Truth and reality both are having long lasting partnership a joint venture which cannot be broken easily. Human beings have develop a habit to take reality as a truth. But what is reality? What is difference between real and artificial?                                   

                                                     From Ramayan to Mahabharata truth has been seen in the different ways. For some people Ram was right and some people still believe that Ravaan was right. There has been always a connection between the truth and believing. Today’s common definition of truth is “the things that people like to hear, see, and believe they take it as truth”.

                                                    Circumstances change people there way of thinking their lifestyles. Is it circumstances also affect the truth? the answer is yes the circumstances play a huge role in truth in other words “circumstances defines the truth”. It is the circumstances who make right to wrong and a truth to bogus. For example in case of war between two countries the people belonging from both the countries tend to believe that their country is right and policies of other country is wrong and it is their country that is fighting for the truth.

But the entire question remains how to speak truth? The answer of this question is simple just do the things welfare of the society, nation and for the world it may be considered as truth. It is a very wide concept one cannot measure it but we can change it by speaking the truth.
