PROBABLY...... MY DEATH MAY BE JUSTIFIED

This post is an humble contribution by me towards the justice that demands answer to the lives of the brave hearts KEENAN SANTOS and REUBEN FERNANDEZ.
This post speaks Keenan's words..the way Keenan must be feeling at present ..
Please forgive and feel free to post in the comments sections if this post tends to hurt sentiments of any person...

DEATH is a word that underestimates the bravery of the good souls Keenan and Reuben.

Anyone unaware of this brave deed please visit the following link before forwarding to the post below:

Speaker: Keenan Santos

That night was just awsum ...but I hardly ever imagined it would turn out to be as dreadful as a nightmare...
we were done with dinner...just about to move away..I saw him..he was well dressed.. I doubt he was drunk..indeed he was the evil..

He misbehaved.

'EVE TEASING ' would be the correct word....

mumbaikars are very used to it....it happens in almost every nook and corner of the society..

No guy would withstand...no guy would forgive...if anyone does mischief with his girl friend...
I can never forgive ...in fact I  'could'  never forgive...if someone misbehaves with my buddies..

I opposed It..Reuben opposed it...we drove him away...

I didn't realize his killer instincts till he returned with four more men  who were armed with sickles, knives, bamboos, stumps....

He attacked me....I couldn't resist ...

The pain was intolerable...something sharp had pierced into me...
I was slowly losing my existence...



Avinash hit one of them with a piece of glass...Reuben was attacked tooo... he was also defenseless..
the roads were bloodshed...even though there were many spectators around....none helped.
I cannot recollect it all....but still I remember the terror stricken faces of my buddies

I had to succumb I surrendered....no because i was brave enough to face death... I died fighting...my death had more significance...it was an answer to many a devils...in the streets out there

 I could see Reuben struggle for life in the hospital...he underwent many surgeries...
I wished he survived...at least to not let those guys free
This time too my wish remained silent....death was victories...here he is...Reuben is with me toooo

Though we are together...guys,,,,
I miss u allll...our days on earth were more than heaven for me.....

I can now see many candles burning for me and Reuben...
Many hearts weeping for us
Many a hands joining together to pray for us
Many a tears flowing for us

I never imagined my goodbye from earth would be so brave and neither did Reuben
I wish our death is justified
I don't know which lawyer is gonna attend for them....I wish these shameless had atleast a pinch of guilt

The media did celebrate this news for many a days....but now since it lost its'hotness'....I wish its not gonna be closed down like every other eve teasing cases...


Mumbai is a city which is termed to be very safe for women....
Still we had to lose our life in the same city for the very same case



To avoid death of many a keenans and reubens....we demand justice!!!!!!!
I know demanding a justice in a country which takes more than  three years to decide upon a terrorist who Killed many a lives,,,,,
demanding justice in a country where justice is the only thing available very late.....
demanding justice in a country where corruption and influence  plays every role,,,,

I know demanding justice in India is difficult....but not impossible

Am not sorry for our death...but for for our loved ones who are still denied justice
...........the ones who miss me

I may not physically exist among you guys....
but am always there with you....we are there with you....
Me and Reuben wish our sacrifice never goes wasted....
WE believe our death will be justified!!!!!!!

If you heart prays For Keenan and Reuben.....
join this group....
share it...
spread the word....
demand justice for them

BLAST OFF.....

BLASTsss......

Not a new story at alll....
Its just like another daily affair for every Mumbaikar.....
Since the last 18 years...terror attacks 
A regular news to the ears of every Mumbaikar...
A regular sight to every mumbians...

Its as if you get out of your home for work in the morning biding bye to the loved ones...and your dead body awaits them in the evening


Our hearts weep for a span of time...later the life goes on...
The memories fade...but the injury still remains...

The 1993 blasts.....killed more than 250 ,,injuring
around 700
The July 11 2006 blasts was the worst when seven
major places in Mumbai were attacked...
The 2008 terror mishap....unforgettable for every
Mumbaikar


We just complaint about Kasab being not hanged to death...
We complaint about the Pakistan governments inactivity....

What else do we do???
and there,,, we tend to forget it all until we have another blast in the city as a remainder..

To remind us.........
"THAT MUMBAI IS NOT YET FREE FROM THE CLUTCHES OF THESE EVILS..."

Yes of course,,,now the post blast happenings are quite clear...
There will be strict security checking at almost every nook and corner...
Every other common man will be have his bag snatched and checked again and again by the cops..

My question is which terrorist will dare to enter a city where the blasts recently occurred..then what is the use of strengthening the security measures during the post blast scenario....????
if the security needs to be strengthened...keep it strong always...throughout the year


At one side Kasab's birthday is celebrated bursting blasts in mumbai...whereas at the other side...Indian judiciary is trying its level best to let Kasab live longer...

Leave Kasab to the mumbaikars...
Let us ,The Mumbaikars take the decision...
Why do we need to think upon the punishment to be assigned to Kasab...
??????????????

ITS QUITE CLEAR THAT HE IS AN ENEMY...RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LIVES OF MANY A INDIANS...THE BEST HE CAN AFFORD IS DEATH

So now many Facebook updates will express rage..
Many a twitterians will tweet the anger...
Many satyagrahis will starve against terrorism.....

But who??? who is to act???
Who is to invoke the government of our country...that its tooo late..to act

Where are the ample amounts of crores being used in the defence and security of the country???

IS THIS WHAT WE GET IN A COUNTRY WHERE THE DEFENCE SECTOR HAS ALL THE MONET INN???

DON'T WE EVEN HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE SAFE??

LIFE BENEATH WHEELS

Train accidents are not a new story for any mumbaikar...a cropped leg or injured face is an usual sight for us...but the life still has to move on...the victim is shifted to the nearest railway hospital and the train again sets in motion

These accidents occur due many reasons..
Either the illegal crossing of the rails ignoring the over bridge or the usual hanging at the door...

All it takes is just a span of few seconds to turn our life into a hell..
Every other day we here abut such accidents...

..we don't try to understand the seriousness of the topic unless and until the story is visible to our naked eyes..

One such incident happened with me last week..
I was returning from Virar to my hometown ..via Diva
we had to hault at diva for boarding another local train to my place

Almost for an hour the train was stopped at diva junction..
the reason was another train accident..

I could see the victim

his movements depicted his fight with death

But death did not want his life,,,just a part of his life

He must be in his early twenties...death grabbed his legs from him
He moved to the next railway track so that he could also get deprived of his life....
But fate had another story for him...

He was carried on the stretcher to the nearest hospital
Now he would have to live another handicapped life

What else could happen
life goes on....the train moved ...

Its Mumbai...here life and train stops for no one.....

THe aFTerMAth of WORld Cup

SO the entire nation is celebrating...
Right from the rags to riches...all are bleeding blue.....
Now that I am the prey to my most difficult enemy..THE MIGRAINE..thanks to the loud party and noise at Saturday night...My grey cells had this weird idea...
What if not...??

What if the the lions had grabbed the cup from the tigers???



Would the aftermath be the same as it is now...its obvious 'NO'..i do knoe that ...
The Respect the team members are now receiving would have had the three alphabets  DIS...before it...as a prefix

In spite of gifting them the homes and residential plots...some would have destroyed their current homes

The captain who is now gonna receive the doctorate honour would have other wise landed at the doctor's place...

Now this post of mine does not intend to hurt the sentiments of any Indian...in fact I was the first person to finish my exam at the examination hall...so that I can reach home..watch the match and cheer the team

I am speaking about the indians' emotions attached to the game
There is no other game like cricket which can unite the Indians...not even the national game...
Comeon...how many Indians know the name of Indian hockey team captain??
even I got to know it only after googling the name...
and MS dhoni..he is known to every Indian right from children to the oldies...

The only time when hockey gained attention was during success of the movie
Chak de...India

Why hockey...what about the other games??
the only publicity during commonwealth games was the corruption hing and disordered committee...the game and performance had less coverage compared to it..
I never meant the we should not support cricket ....infact we should support every sport.... and the national game tooo

now that we united together almost for a month for the entire team...as a SINGLE NATION...
we are gonna separate to several states within a week...
the blue bleeders will now start...
HALLA BOL...KORBO LORBOSS...AND HILAYing DUNIYA....here comes the IPL...manoranjan ka baap..
.P.S.: (I heard the world cup shout: "mere paas maaa hain")..




Ready for supporting you team at the IPL...???

OLD IS GOLD


madrasi writes again

Since its vacation for me, for me, these days sun rises only at 10’o clock, followed by two hours long appointment with the newspapers waiting for me at my doormat.


Today I saw a very fascinating headline in one of the regional newspapers of Mumbai.


‘Check into metro’


Still in my night suit with a cup of coffee, I settled down to read it.


The article was about the most discussed metro tail project taking root in Mumbai. The first phase of this project will start by next year while the third phase is planned to be started in 2021. (Exactly the Mumbai way,, after all slow but steady wins the race)


It is an expensive project linking many important cities via road. (Hope this link won’t experience the fate of the sea link!)


The news paper told me that this is going to be fantastic with many technologies being launched in the transport section of Mumbai. Automatic ticket vending machine, automatic ticket checker, and computer controlled doors (which can even count the number of people passing through it).


Guys, there number of commuters using this facility will be also controlled. Over population is not going to be allowed in this system. The trains will be equipped with automatically closing doors!!(Yes, exactly like those ones which u see in Hindi movies).


Now these are something impractical in an aka Bumbaiya life-ishtyle!! Imagine mumbaikar traveling in a train peacefully in the peak hours...that to without clinging to the door!!

And these doors get closed after a particular time in a metro train...That is u won’t be able to board a running train....now that is an unwanted piece of information for lazy bones like me.


Many western avatars had tried their luck in Mumbai... Burgers tried to defeat vada pav..Now this is aamchi Mumbai. Sincerely I prefer vada pav more than those branded burgers .

don’t u think taste buds of a mumbaikar prefer vada pav more???

Similarly metro rail can’t replace our own local train. The fun in clinging to the rusted handles , arguing for the fourth seat, pushing each other on the platform bridge, cursing the late trains during monsoon, etc etc are something just unavoidable in a Mumbai life.


Lets see how much the common people in Mumbai accepts the new avatar of rail on roads..Hope this doesn’t increase the traffic on Mumbai roads..

Q; what did a tamarind in a sack tell his friend?

A:i m feling like standing in a mumbai local train.
