Really Social

  Midnight Freedom and Morning Amnesia 🇮🇳 The plan was simple. Last night, over half-sleepy promises and leftover optimism, my roommate declared, “I’ll bring the items in the morning. We’ll cook together.” A democratic decision. Consensus achieved. Constitutionally binding. Morning arrived. Nothing happened. No vegetables. No groceries. No roommate urgency. Just silence, broken only by the distant sound of patriotic songs and my stomach filing a non-cooperation movement. It was Republic Day. And that’s when it hit me. Why Midnight? Why did India got its freedom at midnight? Not at sunrise, when the nation wakes up fresh and hopeful. Not mid-morning, after chai and civic sense kick in. But exactly at midnight , when half the country is asleep and the other half is wondering whether to stay awake or postpone enthusiasm till morning. Standing there, hungry, staring at an empty kitchen, I suddenly felt I understood the leaders of 1947. They knew us ! A Historical Pause (Because Sati...

In today’s world, even the sick hesitate to approach hospitals. The visible discrimination in healthcare and the growing role of insurance have widened the gap between the privileged and the poor. Basic care, consultations, and observation should never feel like luxuries. Health is a right, and governments must ensure that reaching medical help is affordable, accessible, and treated with urgency.Education follows a similar path. Rising costs push ordinary families out, leaving quality learning only for those who can afford it.  A society that prices education beyond the reach of its people slowly erases hope for its future.Politics, once meant to serve people, now behaves like an industry. The stage is crowded with corporate interests and divisive tactics, where power matters more than purpose.  Common citizens are left struggling to voice their needs in this circus of control.To survive in such a world, awareness is the first step, unity the second. Progress begins when peopl...

I feel tense most days—because I know the truths. What makes it worse is the constant propaganda from right-wing groups, Hindutva supporters, Zionists, Islamophobes, and others like them. Even my old school and college friends don’t seem to understand the reality, the truth, or the pain of carrying such heavy knowledge. I often can’t respond to their anti-Muslim statements, messages, posts, or their silence and ignorance. What has happened to the world? Why can’t even educated people understand the truth? Take Palestine, for example. Palestinians resist—with or without support—because it’s their lives, their families, their very existence at stake. Humanity and dignity matter. This is not rocket science. History is clear: Europe hated Jews; the Nazis and Catholic powers killed them. Then the British pushed them out and placed them in Palestinian land. From there began the settler attacks and systematic wars. Naturally, there was resistance, especially when Arab nations or others could ...

For the last few months, I’ve been staying in Delhi and working in Gurgaon. What I’ve seen and felt is a strange mix of hypocrisy and mediocrity. India is a land of diversity—mixed, divided, yet vibrant. But in its cities, the divide feels much sharper. On one side, there are the poor, pushed further into poverty. On the other, the rich, living in their own bubble, not caring much about the struggles outside. Each class has its own problems, but the gap between them is painfully visible. What makes it worse is the failure of administration. The social ecosystem has not been maintained with justice. Everyone pays taxes in different forms, yet the condition of the cities tells another story. Step into a gully, a remote lane, or the backside of any city, and you’ll see the truth—pathetic living conditions, broken infrastructure, no sense of hygiene or sanitation. At night, many people sleep in rickshaws, on footpaths, or under flyovers. Nobody cares. Nobody shows this reality. Bollywood s...

Depopulation From the myths of population issue, searched and gone through some articles and documentaries, its all shocking! In some corners of the world, people worry about overcrowding. In others—like Japan, South Korea, parts of Europe—there’s silence. Birthrates are dropping. Not by choice, but because life has become too hard, too uncertain. People feel lonely, unsupported. When a society makes parenting a luxury, something is wrong. Losing the Basics — Civic Sense Is Dying When I cam back to India, Delhi, my concept of the "capital city" gone completely wrong. Then recent news, where our people behaving outside India tallying the same cultural debt. We really lose to the civilization essence. We don’t know how to live together anymore. We throw garbage in rivers, we honk like it’s music, and we treat public spaces like someone else’s problem. Civic sense is not just about cleanliness or order—it’s about care. We’ve lost the habit of caring. The Shadow of Caste — Still ...

Recent developments in India have raised significant concerns regarding communal harmony, the role of law enforcement, and the dissemination of misinformation. Below is an overview of these issues, supported by recent news and reports, to inform and educate the public on these critical matters: 1. Supreme Court's Stance on Mosque Demolition Petitions The Supreme Court of India has addressed petitions concerning the demolition of mosques, emphasizing the importance of adhering to legal procedures and maintaining communal harmony. In 2019, while awarding disputed land to Hindu groups, the Court declared the demolition of the Babri Masjid as an illegal act. This stance underscores the judiciary's commitment to upholding the rule of law and protecting religious structures. 2. Communal Riots and Allegations of Police Bias Recent communal riots in states like Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh have raised concerns about police impartiality. Reports suggest that law enforcement agencies have b...

 Reservation policies in India were created as a ladder toward social equality, especially for marginalized communities. However, upper-caste groups have long tried to misinterpret and undermine this system due to a sense of superiority. These groups have even spread fake data, stirred up protests, and created misleading narratives to challenge reservation. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar introduced reservation with the goal of ensuring equal opportunity, but right-wing politics often complicates this, especially with tactics that intimidate and isolate minority groups by twisting religious interpretations and enforcing discrimination. This deep-rooted social division affects all levels of Indian society, including local governance. In many villages and Panchayats, caste-based power struggles continue to prevent true representation and access to resources for marginalized groups. The Tamil movie Nandhan highlights this issue, portraying the reality of caste oppression and slavery still present i...

The world we live in today often feels like we are under constant surveillance, where every action and opinion is closely monitored. Despite the ideals of truth and justice, freedom of expression is limited in many areas of life. In corporate environments, employees are under constant watch, unable to freely express personal views on social or economic issues. But it’s not just corporations—no company truly allows its employees to behave freely, even in their personal space. There are too many policies, both written and unwritten, that restrict human behavior, ensuring conformity and control. Even as citizens, expressing opinions openly can lead to severe consequences, as authorities may take action against those they deem a threat. The personal becomes political, and genuine freedom feels increasingly out of reach. Yet, there are groups that speak loudly about freedom, claiming to be free from societal or religious restrictions. In reality, however, many remain bound by the control of...

 Malala, once a symbol of courage by media, to simply justify the imperialistic atrocities, now remains silent on the real injustices of our time by zionists, imperialists, colonialists and fascists. Her education seems to have shaped her worldly outlook but not opened her heart. Meanwhile, Greta Thunberg boldly raises her voice for Palestinians, standing firm against oppression. The media, with its crafted narratives, controls the masses, shaping what they see and believe. True freedom is elusive; those who blindly follow are bound by invisible chains. But for those who think critically, even a glimpse of truth in the darkness is enough to guide them toward justice. They cannot stand with injustice.

"Bhagawan Dasante Ramarajyam" is not just a satire; it's a powerful reflection of the reality we live in. The movie dares to strip away the veils of hypocrisy, much like how the 'rakshasas' in the story unpant Lord Rama—not out of respect, but to display their ego, hatred, and defiance against what is righteous and just.  This film holds up a true mirror to a country grappling with polarization, where media and politicians often seem biased and divisive. Amidst this chaos, it's not the powerful but the common people, activists, books, and films like this that fight to preserve democracy and protect the essence of humanity. "Bhagawan Dasante Ramarajyam" speaks boldly to this struggle, presenting an intense and thought-provoking narrative. Its theme, while allegorical, is a canvas for the harsh truths of society, urging viewers to reflect on the very state of our democratic values and social harmony. The film stands as a beacon of resistance, reminding...

The rape crime triggered a mass protest across the country. But it must have protested long back... India, once a beacon of diversity and secularism, now finds itself grappling with a surge in hate crimes, social inequality, and political manipulation that threaten the very fabric of its democracy. Recent events, such as the tragic case of Bilkis Bano and the appalling statements from political leaders, highlight the deepening chasm between the values enshrined in the Indian Constitution and the reality on the ground. Bilkis Bano, a victim of one of the most horrific gang rapes during the 2002 Gujarat riots, was recently in the spotlight again when her attackers were garlanded by members of the ruling party. This act of blatant insensitivity towards the victim, coupled with the continued support for her rapists, underscores a dangerous trend of normalizing violence against minorities. Even more disturbing are the comments from a BJP MLA, who likened the act of raping Muslim women to pr...

 IB or Ibrahim Tarore! A new resistance to the crusaders enslavement. We are witnessing atrocities by the powerful nations. Still the humanity trying to survive. The U.S. and Europe supply arms to Israel, enabling the killing of innocents, disregarding humanity, and instead seeking to dominate other nations through threats, blackmail, and overpowering tactics. The struggle for economic independence and political sovereignty in Africa is a powerful example of how nations have resisted external control, often at great cost. Leaders like Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso and Muammar Gaddafi of Libya epitomized the fight against neocolonialism and imperialism, advocating for self-reliance and regional unity. Both leaders sought to liberate their nations from the economic stranglehold of Western powers and institutions like the IMF and World Bank, which they viewed as tools of modern-day imperialism. Thomas Sankara, often referred to as the "African Che Guevara," led a revolution in ...

 Creating a society that is both moral and progressive while preserving human values requires a balanced approach that fosters ethical behavior, inclusivity, and innovation. At its core, such a society emphasizes education that fosters not only knowledge but also ethics, empathy, and social responsibility. Ethical leadership is crucial, with leaders who demonstrate integrity and prioritize the common good. Strengthening community bonds and encouraging inclusivity are vital for building trust and ensuring that progress benefits all members of society. Respect for human dignity and rights forms the foundation, guiding actions and policies that uphold justice and fight against discrimination.  A harmonious blend of tradition and innovation allows for growth without losing touch with cultural heritage. Environmental stewardship ensures that progress does not come at the expense of future generations. Open dialogue, tolerance, and support for mental well-being further enrich the so...
