Caution : Pay Attention

Image
By

Recently the incident at Indore, shocked the wits off me.

Its said that there are warning signs asking people not to go down to the waterfall, but that definitely goes unnoticed and out of sheer curosity we tend to do what we are instructed not to. Alas, its not always that we are lucky and forbidden from being victim of an unexpected incident.

This incident proves that there are days when things just don't go the normal way.

Its sad...really sad....We can't blame the nature for what happened, but definitely our negligence and lack of presence of security measures which resulted in loss of 3 lives. This could have been prevented : if at first, they (victims) realized that going against the warnings (of not going near the waterfall)could cost their lives, If, there were security personnels who could have stopped them from going against the warnings stated and If at the end, there were adequate security measures to save them from beight caught in nature's hand.

Flash floods are unexpected and untimely reaction by nature. However, lack of awareness, vigilance, security measures supports the motive of a suddena act like that.

If we can control something to prevent such incidents from happening, it can only be by paying 'ATTENTION TO EVERY SINGLE DETAIL' .

A moment of enjoyment takes seconds to shatter.

So stay awake and be aware !!!

    As always, it was Man again who had a major stake or was behind this tragic happening. Open flood gates of Nakheri dam canal system & large scale leakage caused sudden surge of water at the falls, sweeping away the victims.

A visit to India Gate

By
Out of Sight ....but not....Out of Mind...!! Wanted to write a blog only once I saw myself changing....and have I?...Yes,I have changed to some extent and will keep on changing until apocalypse :p :p (it was meant on a lighter note, people...dunno whether the world ends in 2012, and don't even want to specualte) With this post, I want to bring into light the common man's perception about the heritage of India. Let's just focus on 'one of the many' such places - THE INDIA GATE - a landmark that commemorates the live's lost fighting the British Empire , along with the 'Amar Jawan Jyoti' which pays homage to the ones lost in the 1971 Ino-Pak war. However on a recent visit, it appeared that it was more of a 'fun spot' and less of a 'rememberance spot'. The purpose for anyone's visit there, especially the residents of Delhi, is to eat (throw here and there) , play in the pond (having bath in the water and how can we forget ...throw

Sense and Nonsense

By
Amidst the hope of a 'New India' with steps being taken to fight corruption,we are reminded of the other evils that persist predominantly in the nation, with the recent blast near the Delhi High Court. There is a lot of anger within, so it might seem that this post is more of a grievance sharing. But seeing innocent people being hurt makes my heart cry and my mind say "what the F***". When will we be a nation safe to live in. When will we, rather than saying "We are proud to be Indians" will act and stand up to fight against the nation-wide slaughter. When will we stop fighting in the name of religion, when no religion promotes CRIME or killing of innocent people. When will we start living as humans and not as cannibals...eating away the life of others.!!!.....SIGH !! With all this in my mind...when just about to catch some sleep, it felt as if 'Mother Earth' said - "if you don't do something, i sure will" - 'Earthquake in Delhi'

Murderous Rage Uniting All :)

Why this kolaver di? has seemed to mostly take the form of 'updates or posts' on facebook / twitter, all across the nation. The one reason for it being picked up so fast is its 'Tanglish' version that has made it unique and a perfect mix, being received well by Tamilians and also non-tamilians. Here, truly the sense of unity in diversity comes into play. Its rightly said that ' Music ' knows no boundaries and travels to the hearts of all without judging on the lines of Caste/ Religion/ Regionalism/ Race. "Tough as it may seem, but there's faint line between Opening and Closing your eyes to the reality". Its overwhelming to know that - people opened their eyes and welcomed with smiling face, appreciating the peppy number, mumbling it during office hours or at home, putting the song as caller tune and hello tune on their handsets, playing it in their car and realizing every other passerby is listening to the same song :) WOW... the world is intox
