Corona Virus – Global Pandemic

Corona Virus – Global Pandemic

Padmini Arhant

Corona virus COVID-19 has brought the world under lock down claiming lives, affecting thousands in different parts of the world and paralyzing the global economy. Politics and political authorities colossal failure to take timely decisive actions in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China has led to the contagion effect. The travel ban in the wake of initial outbreak in Wuhan should have been the preliminary step that could have limited the spread of the virus now causing significant stress, anxiety and economic meltdown.

Citizens across the globe exercising due diligence in adherence of medical warnings and advisory on hygiene, restricting social contacts until the virus containment is critical for self-protection and those in the family and community.

The health crisis affecting most parts of the world is a serious matter with the world having become smaller and closer from transportation and technological advancement in the twenty first century. The novel corona virus nCoV or COVID-19 originating from Wuhan City in Hubei province China claiming many lives over there with global impact is unfortunate and squarely falls on the local and central authorities in China for the inadequate containment of this deadly virus. 

China having experienced earlier outbreaks of corona virus family and other virus strains in the past two decades could have adopted stringent methods and imposed rules along the line prioritizing public health and safety in the prevention measure. The subsequent steps in Wuhan’s lock down was rather aggressive in terms of welding apartment buildings gates and doors prohibiting exit of residents slighting grave danger of such actions in the event of incidents like fire and other possible emergencies arising in the apartment complex. 

There was obvious failure in response mechanism and handling of the repeat outbreak in Wuhan, China with a contagion effect worldwide. The Chinese authorities in Beijing muzzling the whistleblower, the young physician Li Wenliang alerting the community and authorities having to pay a price with his life and several other citizens in China who fell victims to COVID-19 followed by those in many parts of the world speaks volume on the state of affairs i.e. politics endangering lives with authorities exerting power to silence legitimate concerns like the one from Dr. Li Wenliang and series of lapses in addressing the problem from the very beginning considering the history of epidemics from China or anywhere rapidly shared with the rest of the world through constant stream of travelers criss crossing various destinations world over. 

The nCoV or COVID-19 being attributed to transmission from animal to human and mutation thereafter causing the pandemic clearly indicative of the lack of appropriate system monitoring and curbing incidents in wet markets and animal husbandry identified as the catalysts not for the first time but also previously noted in the wake of H1N1, SARS, MERS and now COVID-19 clarify the absence of critical inspections and importance to clean healthy environments in handling meat products sold to the public in open markets. 

Yet another issue is wild animals and variety of species landing on the food table as delicacies for human consumption beckon attention and discernment to spare them as they cause disruption in nature designed food chain with dire consequences on natural habitat and ecological balance depriving members in the wilderness from their original prey for survival contributing to endangered category. Nature has provided more than enough food produces and choices for humans to feed on without having to indulge in far reaching wild life menu not necessarily meant for satisfying normal appetite instead exploring extravagant desires like the items serving as aphrodisiacs for some and others experimenting medicinal value to deal with illnesses in a raw condition often proved to be recipes of disaster.

The government intervention through education and orientation on the health hazards of such practices in the rural, remote and urban areas of the country is essential to save lives in all frontiers i.e. humans and natural conservation. 

Since the preparedness to combat pandemic is always challenging regardless of economic and health care affordability for nations worldwide, the preventative course would significantly mitigate the spread of the disease upon individual discipline and commitment in adherence of public health care advisory on hygiene and limiting social contacts given the nature of the virus to contaminate anyone or anything resulting in massive suffering notwithstanding the toll on global economy. 

Citizens across the globe respecting health care experts warnings and heeding recommendations on the ways and means to cope with the virus and cooperation in deescalation of the current pandemic would effectively restrict the proliferation of the victims and reduce casualties from the alarming COVID-19. 

I extend my sincere condolences to families in Wuhan and rest of China as well as all in other parts of the world who have lost their loved ones to the preventable pandemic and hold the ones affected by the virus in my thoughts and prayers for speedy recovery.

Be wise and stay healthy.

Thank you.

End Political Madness

End Political Madness 

Padmini Arhant

Welcome to Political Madness!

Politics and entertainment, the duopoly behind deception. Politics keeping entertainers and entertainment at bay. Likewise entertainment staying out of politics would do the world – a big favor.

Those running the gamut called government via proxies and puppet regimes, zero tolerance to legitimate dissent or discourse on government failures, 

Don’t call such government democratic.

When you think none have right to self-defense when their rights are violated such system cannot be a democracy.

Any criticism against government policy propagated as anti-nationalism is authoritarianism.

World under Secret Society control colluding in secret locations confirm sinister system.

Stop treating citizens as prisoners holding them hostage to vicious propaganda. Importantly those behind secretive agenda need to come out of the dark. 

Last but not the least get over the obsessive compulsive disorder to spy on your arch nemesis for exposing truth and anti-democratic actions. 

Get a life and adopt the human value  –

Live and let others live for your time on earth is not permanent.

The world belongs to none to exert dominion over others or anyone regarded beneath anybody or their kind.

You bring nothing upon arrival so you take nothing with you upon departure.

Whatever is owned in the transition between life and death is not yours either. You are born naked and leave naked.

King, Emperor, Kaiser, Czar, Sultanate,,Badshah, Shahenshah, Samrat don’t exist in a democracy.

Politics is meant to serve people and nation not silence them and exert excess authority.

Individual rights are non-negotiable. Accordingly, infringement in this regard is violation.

The end to such political madness critical to restore sanity and sensibility in the world.

Thank you.

Egotistic Politics

Egotistic Politics

Padmini Arhant

Welcome to Egotistic Politics!

Male dominance, supremacy brimmed with misogyny is the typical trend.

What about God’s role in all or any affairs?

Apparently in man’s world, God only indulges to prove woman as inferior nitwit, nincompoop designed to be a robot otherwise aiding in population proliferation,

Besides being male species’ object of lustful fantasies.

Such is the female status that worsens in ethnic orientation regarded anyone’s fair game.

While the competition intensifies on hogging credit over booming US economy,

Any takers on the creation of terror outfits ISIL, ISIS and IS?

How about warfare & authorizing drone strikes, nuclear laden missiles artillery?

Bifurcation of nation Sudan resulting in massive exodus & political chaos,

United States & allies intervention in foreign land leaving millions refugees,   

Perhaps these events have nothing to do with any in the highest office on land.

Only the best and glorious moments count and neatly stacked in one’s legacy.

Human nature on selection and omission to suit individual preferences isn’t new and long been practiced and widely prevalent in contemporary era.

History has been subverted since civilization serving as irony in civility.

No matter how history is written or projected through anyone’s narrative, more so in the fake world anchored on hyperbolic false propaganda media trumpeting anything too good to be true as factual dictum,

One’s deeds regardless of stature and background in life etched in one’s KARMA echoing over many lives until debts are settled in entirety.

The etched KARMA serves as the irrevocable and irrefutable record now and beyond.

The rest are meaningless symbolic egotistic politics.

Thank you.

Politics- Political and Electoral Reform

Politics – Political and Electoral Reform 

Padmini Arhant

Those who sell their SOUL would have no problem selling anything whether it be nation they lead rather mislead into economic ditch or destiny of the population electing them as the head of the state and representatives of every constituency.

Politics is nothing more than theatrics and accordingly the strong relation between entertainment world and politics instrumental in distracting public from reality evading transparency and accountability using scapegoat on their indefensible economic debacles.

Today’s regimes in control of affairs need to acknowledge own follies, shortcomings and acutely deficient skills to deal with challenges created by them.

There is one thing about hogging undeserving glory through event management at ordinary lives expense. There is yet entirely another dimension demanding glory hogging and publicity starved personalities to live up to the grandiose image marketing miserably falling short in credibility and integrity.

Election anywhere is meaningful and purposeful unless the electoral process meet the following criteria.

1. Eliminate electronic voting machine or EVM and substitute with manual voting accompanied by verifiable voter paper audit trail VVPAT providing every voter casting vote receipt with confirmation of candidate, political party and any legislation propositions they voted through ballots for individual and national tally on election result day.

EVM is irrefutably proved to be managed with preconfigured software designed to generate election results in major political parties favor.

2. Eradicate black money, slush funds, electoral bonds and campaign financing from personal money laundering and corporations buying candidates and political parties forming corporate run government.

Instead, every voter must demand public financing with a cap in election spending barring negative smear nonsensical campaign advertisements premised on divisive, polarization politics.

Every citizen granting approval through vote insist candidates regardless of political positions from local legislators to the highest as Prime Minister or President only address issues that matter to citizens such as economy, crime in society in national security and measures to improve infrastructure.

3. Boycott rally of any candidacy indulging in delusional politics sowing the seeds of hatred, prejudice, communal and religion…making their way into Parliament or Congress deploying divide and conquer strategy.

4. Abandon celebrity worship and reject political parties as well as candidates fielded on glamor and glitz while miserably lacking in substance and ingenuity.

5. Similarly every voter should remind political members of their constitutional duty and responsibility to fulfill their pledge to serve people of the entire nation not just the rich, famous and powerful in society.

Again  political figures on public funded payroll and benefits are citizens’ employees not rock stars or messiahs as the political trend transformed in the past decade against democratic norm.

6. Every candidate running for public office to submit complete profile and made public with cross verification. Anyone with criminal and corruption record or charges pending trial should be declined by voter seeking clean and honest representation of them in Parliament and Congress. Likewise, deter candidates and legislators proven on corporate and special interests bandwagon and those determined to deter development among underprivileged and disenfranchised demography. 

7. A candidate of any political party including independent candidacy should not be allowed to run in more than one constituency. In facilitating candidate to contest election in two or more constituencies denies others a fair chance enabling the wealthy and any organizations institutions backed candidate and members of political dynasties to retain political power despite their ineligibility evident in other regions of the country. 

8. All candidates and political parties formal and informal funding to be revealed to public prior to election and cross checked by public. The data missing in this context would be a strong indication of sources behind political parties and candidates sponsoring them entirely in their interests not for ordinary citizens or national progress.

9. Shun media and press false propaganda and hyperbolic publicity of candidates and political parties ignoring their legacy and track record to sway public opinion to their preferred candidate’s advantage.

10. Every citizen – the electorate in emerging economies and developing nations in particular should not welcome foreign entities and powerful external forces influence, direct and indirect involvement maintained as tradition thus far to install puppet regimes and proxies to exploit population and extract natural resources in those countries at will.

11. Don’t be misled and misguided by foreign powers pseudo recognition of political leaderships of your nation with coveted honors and awards nearing national election as a blatant intrusion nominating their proxies exclusively for economic and vested interests.

12. Last but not the least, don’t accept bribes in cash or kind from political parties, candidates and their affiliates in disguise luring you to vote for them and in return seize your basic fundamental rights to everything as citizens importantly the economic opportunity and freedom of speech to discuss and debate government failures, actions and inaction concerning people across the spectrum and nation at large.

Every voter need to compare and realize their economic, social and political situation and general environment around them to evaluate government and leaderships performance rather than any other distraction via foreign or domestic solicitation. 

Unless every voter is mindful of the power in their hands to approve or disapprove governance and leaderships beginning at City Council, Municipal, District, State and National level, the status quo would remain leaving the poor the poorest, the selective segments isolated and marginalized as well as average ordinary lives struggling for generations with no end in sight.

Act now and SAY NO to negative, corrupt and counterproductive politics.

Thank you.

Gandhi Jayanthi – Mahatma Gandhi 150th Birth Anniversary

Gandhi Jayanthi

Mahatma Gandhi 150th Birth Anniversary

Padmini Arhant

When the nation was shackled and enslaved by brute force

You came along and instilled the idea of freedom 

When you witnessed prejudice and untouchability by extreme source

You strived to teach unity and equality with hope and wisdom

When you rallied the nation to rise for self-respect and dignity

You created the aura attracting selfless patriots and passionate compatriots

The mass awakening aroused by you and several great souls brought clarity

Many of you as crusaders collectively contributed to birth of free India

Sabarmati ke Santh,  May your legacy last like the sun and the moon on earth!

 

When violence and dominance practiced by authority generated passivity

You taught non-violence and resistance to counter atrocity 

When assaults and killings of innocents justified as way of life 

You reminded the sinners of their sins and there began the strife 

No nation or society could be oppressed without corruption and treason 

The nation stalls with firewalls setting into slow motion or even malfunction

Such predicament prompts the necessity for sane and sensible voice 

You along with other extraordinary martyrs became the ideal choice 

Sabarmati ke Santh,  May your legacy last like the sun and the moon on earth!

 

You expressed fear and felicitations on the prospects of national independence 

The hidden truth since then revealed in internal and external influence on Indian governance

A nation is free and truly democratic only when power commands honesty and integrity

Unfortunately, these requirements in politics has no possibility with allegiance to impropriety

The prevalent dark age or Kaliyuga celebrates and commemorates assassins, divisive destructive elements

How could any nation or population deal with massive fraud and negative fragments?

The worthy, qualified and virtuous are disdained with truth regarded the enemy of calamity

However, the time and tide stop for nothing with the firm belief in progress and prosperity

Sabarmati ke Santh, May your legacy last like the sun and the moon on earth!

 

Your dreams and expectations for a nation you laid your life is still a long way from reality

The rich as the wildly richest, poor the poorest, casteism the permanent scar, religion shrieking as majority

Amid milestones in reaching galaxy, the ordinary continue to suffer and struggle as their destiny

While the priorities are misplaced, the nation straddles with assurance on all being well despite the irony 

Farmers, factory workers, small shop keepers, street vendors, teachers and importantly soldiers denied direct meeting 

Contrarily, celebrities from entertainment, economic sector and especially religious zealots welcomed with warm greeting

Indian Parliament is crowded with industrialists, political heirs, movie and sports stars asserting their fame and fortune

Indian streets, sewage and man holes manual cleaning and maintenance designated to so-called lower caste as their misfortune

Sabarmati Ke Santh, May your legacy last like the sun and the moon on earth!

 

Happy 150th Birth Anniversary BAPU!

May your Soul rest in peace!

Thank you.

Monkey See Monkey Do

Monkey See Monkey Do

Padmini Arhant

Politics, media and entertainment under corporate financing and criminal enterprise run affairs.

The trend to hijack from election to individual identity declaring them winner on their terms is the norm despite fait accompli.

Unless people speak their mind and voice concerns to protect individual freedom and liberty, authoritarianism would rise that is already in action silencing democracy.

The idea of free and fair election, government of the people, by the people and for the people is increasingly made redundant.

Politics – Constitution Governs Nation in a Democracy

Constitution Governs Nation in a Democracy

Padmini Arhant

In a democracy, governments come and go with political parties elected to power for a limited term.

The institutions set up for specific purpose such as judiciary and election commission bear the burden in delivering defined goals without compromising the relevant body reputation, credibility and importantly democratic value.

The democratic system guided and governed by constitution protecting the rights of all citizens and sovereignty exemplify the effectiveness of republic nation. 

Supreme Court as the highest judicial authority and the last bastion of justice upholding constitutional law through proper interpretation and application strengthens democratic rule. 

Yet another important constitutional body is the election commission. The election being the fundamental democratic process to appoint government directly by the people as electorate at the state and national level, the election commission autonomy to exercise power in maintaining model code of conduct binding on all contestants transcending political status and privileges of political parties across the spectrum is incontrovertible. 

Since contemporary politics exert overt authority to undermine constitution and prime institutions functionality, democracy is often threatened  in the absence of oversight. 

Accordingly, preserving the sanctity and ethical efficacy of institutions with responsibility to monitor and implement rules solidify democratic foundation.

The latest developments from the Supreme Court of India on Rafale matter and the election commission actions against political parties publicity campaign on candidates profile through television network and feature film in violation of election rules are welcome and commendable.

Furthermore, the election commission rising to the occasion in heeding citizens and opposition parties concerns over key members politicizing defense force, religion and communal references that are prohibited in the model code of conduct would confirm free and fair electoral event besides reassuring nation on timely response and efficiency.

Thank you.

Myth Buster

Myth Buster

Padmini Arhant

Acquired knowledge lacking proper understanding and application is more dangerous than plain ignorance. 

In the climate of propaganda and false representation, myths morph into miracles in misleading gullible targets to benefit sources behind the trend creating madmen as Godmen and Godzillas rising from despotism and demagoguery. 

Satguru – meaning the truth enunciator engaged in the task of enlightenment unlike the contemporary title used for publicity and spotlight to influence and indoctrinate on politics behalf. 

In my personal view, enlightenment is an arduous journey involving deep soul searching and cleansing dispensing negative karma in self-purification relieving the soul from the burden of sins leading to liberation and peace as eternal bliss.

Unfortunately, like everything else spirituality is traded by some prominent members to promote political ideology and flawed policies to retain power and dominance.

Never too late to wake up to reality exercising discernment and sensibility. 

Thank you.

Politics – Paradoxical Paradigm

Politics – Paradoxical Paradigm

Padmini Arhant

I feel the importance for a relevant reminder to United States incumbent administration i.e. right from the time when Presidential candidate Donald Trump’s chance of winning the Presidential bid in 2016 experienced seismic tremor with the controversial Access Hollywood tape revealing then candidate Donald Trump’s sexist profanity against women, the race was practically over for the republican contender.

Subsequent to swearing in to the office of Presidency, the U.S.President was confronted with liberal outrage demanding the newly elected President Donald Trump ouster from the office in the movement led by Jill Stein, Hillary Clinton – the bruised democrat candidate having lost the election to the least expected rival and the left wing Senator Bernie Sanders from Vermont and more.

Then there was an insurgency against President Donald Trump to leave office citing mental instability for impulsive reactions on twitter handle (that is persistent until now as a signature trait) not barring the nuclear threat against North Korea with inflammatory remarks such as:

United States President Donald Trump pledging fast and fury destruction of North Korea boasting United States had a much bigger nuclear button than North Korea and so on… in the run up to then imminent nuclear confrontation with North Korea.

Fast forward to January 2019, the longest United States government shutdown costing U.S. taxpayers billions of dollars over border wall did not resolve among themselves for those claiming to be problem solvers on national and international disputes thus far.

Similarly, the de-escalation of India Pakistan feud is also hogged by political actors whether in the United States, India or Pakistan despite their individual belligerence displayed on numerous occasions including escalating warfare between two nuclear states rather than defusing war rhetoric and channeling focus on terror and terrorism remaining the contentious issue.

Undoubtedly, the political beneficiaries and their die hard supporters with crony conventional and social media playing prominent role in promoting bizarre propaganda on how their so-called respective leaders as President and Prime Ministers steer through the rugged terrains and sail valiantly on the rough seas on their own while conveniently and deliberately attributing my positive and productive contribution all along paradoxically to those involved in flaming the fire.

However, any efforts towards peace from anywhere is always welcome and not to be patented as a commercial commodity.

Politics never shying away from contradictory paradigm is the fact that makes political gains all the more fallacious and fraudulent.

Any engagement towards peaceful resolutions is worthy of recognition upon those demonstrating in action by resolutely and consistently committed to peace and progress of humanity at large unlike selective disposition favoring allies even when they are responsible for illegal invasion, occupation of foreign territory and gross violation of human rights viz. in Palestine, Syria, Yemen and now the resurrection of India-Pakistan long standing line of control (LOC) skirmishes along the Indian borders of Kashmir and Punjab.

There is more to it than meets the eye especially in politics.

The divine mission is witnessed not only by the world but also the Supreme entity, the all-knowing and seer of events on earth and galaxy.

Accordingly, those for whom I am an arch nemesis,  I say to them – You may keep me anonymous and illegitimately assign my identity to wannabes, opportunists and power, fame as well as fortune seekers from politics and entertainment world in particular.

Nonetheless, you and those whom you have deployed in the ill-fated task can never seize my good Karma as it is noted by the one and only Supreme force – the infallible Almighty God.

Something to remember that all actions bear consequences and none are exempt from karmic effects as Karma is and ever remain the judge, jury and executioner in living and upon inevitable departure from this world regardless of stature and background.

India – Dynasty Politics

India – Dynasty Politics 

Padmini Arhant

Indian electorate  – the ordinary citizens exploited and marginalized by upper echelons in society deserve to be liberated from dynasty politics prevalent in all parties embedded in corruption, nepotism and cronyism. Not to mention the external forces i.e. the deep state clout on Indian politics. 

Rahul Gandhi during visit to the United States not long ago lectured on transparency and accountability. The next leg of his journey to Washington D.C. entailed meeting behind closed doors with Congressional members in the Capitol Hill that confirmed Rahul Gandhi’s commitment or the lack there of in this respect. So much for transparency and candor. 

In Nehru Parivar (family) – The Gandhi surname has been enormously beneficial to the successors in the family. 

Sonia Parivar (family) claiming entitlement to power based on dynastic politics reflect unquenchable quest considering the illegal wealth and land amassed by Sonia and family alone could wipe out poverty in India.

Priyanka and Robert Vadra’s illicit land acquisitions in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh to begin with account for massive fraud and would escalate upon Sonia Parivar return to power amid scandalous legacy. 

How long will Sonia Parivar (family) excoriate India citing forefathers participation in freedom movement? 

NB:  Indira Gandhi assassination was due to wanton involvement in troop deployment in the Holy Shrine Golden Temple, Amritsar, Punjab.

Rajeev Gandhi assassination was triggered by the former Prime Minister’s misguided engagement in Sri Lanka against Tamils in that island nation. Sonia Gandhi avenged revenge against Tamils in Sri Lanka with full throttled support to then dictatorial regime of Mahinda Rajapaksa resulting in genocide of Tamils in Sri Lanka in 2009.

Furthermore, Rajiv Gandhi tenure also slighted ethnic cleansing of Sikhs in Delhi, Punjab and wherever possible in 1984. Similar reaction in Bhopal Union Carbide disaster that consumed more than 3000 lives in the major industrial incident. 

Karma is the decisive factor in such tragic and historic events.

Something to remember for those neglecting Karmic effects in life.

More on other Indian political parties will resume in the next articles.

Thank you.
