THE IDENTITY WEAPON

-
   Hey there, It's me back to the game after more than a year. A lot has changed. So did I. The thing that has sparked interest in me to get back to writing today is the political similarity of different geopolitical grounds at so many levels. This is not some new theory of mine that I propose. its just a world view of the juncture that we're at and I'm not blaming anyone for doing it. And yes its not about AI.    The word identity politics has been around since the last decade in India, thanks to Prashant Kishore. Today, the world, politically is at a crux where there are best of many sides playing against each other. But one remained emerging victorious. There is a pattern established to emerge as the winner.

It gives people their voice. People rule their own country. But, at times, Democracy sucks. Let’s consider what’s happening in the world today. The coronavirus pandemic shook all the countries ( almost I guess? ). China, the home to this virus is now in a stage where it can easily chase the virus away from the entire country. It has build an entire hospital in just 10 days with 1000 beds and also planned for building another hospital with 1600 beds but it did not find it necessary. People in the city of Wuhan were on complete lockdown for 50 days. And for the matter of fact China has a communist government.   Let’s see what’s happening in India. A country lockdown for 21 days. Police taking up lathicharge just to make sure that no one comes out of their houses and stay safe from...

Hope you are doing great. This Ganesh Chathurdhi, I was really waiting for this to go on the internet and share with you. So it is basically two Ganeshas speaking during the Navratri.

  Hey again! It’s me Sai Sarath now there are two more authors on this blog and they are Rithika and Sai Chidvilas. So we are writing this blog because we have recently been to Kerala and three of us observed the surroundings of Kerala in our own manner. So here today on different perspective we will share our experience in Kerala. Note that this will be in parts and we cannot express everything which has happened in that nine days in one blog. Here it goes.   The journey started on September 29th and everyone was ready it was almost 1 day journey.

And the next thing we saw while we were in the train is that there was so much of grass growing everywhere and it grows so tall that if you step on it the ground will be one feet below your leg. So much of greenery everywhere. Even in Valmiki Ramayana, Valmiki Maharshi describes Kerala ( kishkinda rajya ) as the...
