Analysing the Sajni murder case 🤔🤔🤔

https://youtu.be/1MQJqWV5XVc?si=PhOUB_kdjYoITWL3

     Why was Sajni, first wife of Tarun primarily killed ? That was because her husband was madly and very seriously in love with his first love. He also wanted to impress the later by doing something drastic and heroic, thus proving in every way that he wanted to marry her and theirs would be a happily ever after story. But the girl was intelligent. She refused to marry a person who had committed a crime, a murderer. She didn't believe in unrealistic dreams and had great foresight. 

     Hiding for so many years by submitting fake documents, and lying again and again to everyone around him, would have given him great deal of tension. Marrying Neha Menon, his Oracle office colleague and having two kids after that, also shows that later on he also realised that being filmy in love was straight stupidity. He had been a fool. After realising the reality of life, like his first love, he too got married again. 

     You can't fool the law or the police. They will surely catch you one day. According to my thought, the late Sajni was a fool. Instead of going by the so called indian culture, and pati parmeshwar and bhartiya pati-vrata naari, she should have walked out of her husband's house and filed for a divorce. You can't blindly trust or co-exist with someone who has got such kind of lethal and fatal feelings for you. Such a relationship is totally doomed right since the beginning. Sajni had to pay with her life, the price for being sanskari

     This murder case and jail for Tarun proves that being oversmart is never advisable. This is not the only case where innocent spouses are murdered because the other half wanted the victim's money or was in an extra-marital affair. 

     Emotions and feelings can trick your brain. But leading a simple life is the best thing to do. Take decisions after proper thinking without succumbing to family pressure. Mental peace should be there, rather than scouting from one woman or man one after the other. The law and illegal activities are not a joke. There are well-trained professionals working in there with technology very much advanced. So no no no, today's youngsters, no panga with the law.

    So, bye for now. It was a good discussion and analysis on this very crucial topic and I'll be back with a lot more soon...

Why the new generation is using the mother's surname ?

      I've seen Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's kids removing their father's surname and using their mother's surname 'Jolie' solely. Prateik Babbar who is the legitimate son of filmstars Raj Babbar and the late Smita Patil, has removed his father's surname and he is now called Prateik Smita Patil. Television-superstar Shweta Tiwari and her first husband Raja Chaudhary's legitimate daughter Palak is using her mother's surname 'Tiwari'. We can see her name all over billboards as Palak Tiwari. 

     Changing the surnames in official records from father's to mother's shows that today's mothers are fearless and sans hypocrisy. I laud such mothers who are respectable, work hard and raise their children. A man should be given respect only if he deserves it. I don't believe in male-bashing and feminism. But I fully agree that some fathers have severe uncontrollable bad habits. So this is an option that all kids have, once they attain the age of maturity. They should have the freedom and independent thinking to choose what should be written after their first name.

     For centuries, indian women were tortured, abused, insulted and repeatedly mocked upon if they couldn't get the required permission to use the surnames of the men involved. But in today's world, what's the big deal ? If you have problems with your father, then use the mother's surname. I don't think anybody minds in the big cities. But in the more feudal remote locations of India, if a woman or a grown up offspring takes such a decision, the police should support her and sternly and firmly should warn the societies over there to not trouble the concerned, or will have to face strict action. 

     I like the way the indian society is improving for the better. But yes, there is educated unemployment and cut-throat competition here, it also has to be noted the women are doing well and raising their kids well too. 

     Advanced science and technology like surrogacy and DNA testing has also contributed immensely for the betterment of life of women. The government, the police and the law, are all supportive. Toh haan, bhartiya naari sab pe bhaari.

Can the Kashmir issue ever be resolved ? 🤔🤔🤔

    This issue first took out its head during the year of our independence- 1947. The Pakistani army attacked Kashmir, which was under the rule of the king then. He could no longer hold it, so he called India for help. The indian army reached there and drove the Pak troops out. The king then signed the document handing over his state to India. 

     Many years later during the Indira Gandhi government, Bangladesh broke off from Pakistan. India was instrumental in the split, but not fully. 

     The most common misconception instilled in the minds of would-be terrorists by Pakistan's ISI sponsored terrorist organisations are that muslim residents in Kashmir and the rest of India are suffering in silence, that they are mistreated and injustice is being done to them. These illiterate, poor and unemployed youth are willing to do anything, even blowing themselves up to feed their starving families back home. They are also lethally brainwashed by expert orators, explaining that they should take up arms and kill innocent Indians in the name of jihad.

     India now, under the strong, intelligent and able guidance of Modiji is moving in the right direction in the right way. There is currently ceasefire in Operation Sindoor. But the indian government spokesperson has said that they don't trust Pakistan. A few hours ago, there is news of new Operation by the name of Operation Keller. Three terrorists were gunned down by Indian security personnel. There is also news of Pakistan testing nuclear bomb, which has lead to earthquakes. 

     What if Pakistan drops a nuclear bomb on us ? The answer is we cooperate with whatever the government asks us to do. It is the height of craziness on the part of the Pak Government if it tells its army personnel to drop a nuclear bomb on our country. I've seen the hint given minimum twice during the operation that they will drop the bomb on us if we continue the military strikes on terrorist camps in PoK and Pakistan. So should we be scared and keep on taking sh*t becoming a mockery first in the eyes of global society and later in the eyes of our own citizens ? According to me, I'm a Post Grad in Journalism and Mass Communications, the Modi government is taking the right steps. We should co-operate with the government and encourage the morale of our armed forces. Rest all is fine. India will come out of it. 

     Pakistan should instead of focusing and concentrating on religion, religion and nothing but religion, start thinking of ways to feed its starving citizens. They have to, have to stop funding terrorist activities in India. Pakistan government, please come out of orthodoxy, hatred and revenge. Resort to peace and see and experience with your own eyes, how beautiful the world is, both inside and outside the border. 

     So once and for all, stop terror, if not only for humanities' sake, but for making intelligent decisions too. Grab a white roses' bouquet and send it to the Prime Minister of India with a note saying-

                     'We love you India'

     Bye for now, will return soon...
