Greed

Neighbour drops in for chit-chat and Coffee...

Neighbor: So a Girl from Jharkhand  shared  an objectionable Post and was arrested...Magistrate.. oddly ...sentenced her  to distribute a certain  number  of Korans..

Me: If the posts were against the Koran... fine...if not...only communal....  wouldn't justice be served if she was Ordered  to apologize via a Post... and do some Community service...or pen section on Communal Harmony in Constitution ....make Copies and distribute ..

N: Had a Muslim done this ... would the Magistrate have ordered him to distribute Geethas.. if he passed such an Order soon this would have been raised in UN.....there'd be  a huge Global hue and cry....they'd say in India no justice for Muslims......

M: ISRO Chairman paid  his obeiscence at Tirupathi prior to scheduled launch of Chandrayaan... now Psuedos questioning his scientific background....

M: So in their book....to be Scientific you cannot believe in Hindu Religion...because had he visited a Mosque or Church they'd not say a word...

N: Religion and Regionalism cannot be wished away...and way things are going in a few decades it'll be... Daraa hooaa ....Christian.... Hindu....Buddhist .

..only 'islands' of religious peace will be China and Russia....

M: It's said huge Political Money in Business...

M: And  do I need to tell you  who started it...was it a Maharashtrian Leader... joke about his wealth... he was moving about in his car and a Building caught his eye.... he asked his Secretary to take down particulars of the Building as he wanted to purchase a couple of flats in the building... the Secretary sheepishly smiled and said... 'you own this building'!!

N: And do I need to tell you who preferred keeping 'ghoos' overseas....and if Swiss Banks had advertised 'Private Banking' in India you know who they'd use to advertise!! Chalo abh toh yeh tantaa khatam..

M: Wrong.... now accounts operate in the name of faceless Companies with faceless Directors...then open a Company.... say in Dubai.... LLC.... and this Company enters into Business Agreements with the faceless Company...the funds transferred to LLC Company become legit.....all clandestine unless some expose like Panama  Papers happens ...

N: So Corruption and Black Money  need to be tackled here with pragmatism...

M: Yes.... transparency in Government purchases..... pragmatic ...Taxes.... Duties....

N: Even if 'intelligent' CCTV cameras with voice  recording  were installed on all of us.... still greed would find some jugaad to get around this  24x7 lifetime vigilance..

M: Greed.... Modi has tried to scare away greed..... now its time to quell the 'greed engines' with pragmatic Policies....

See my neighbour  off at the Gate...
