अनंत की ओर

अपेक्षाओं के झंझावात में

कातर खड़ा एक मानव,
कभी आगे तो कभी
पीछे देखता और
निर्निमेष निहारता विशाल नभ।
कहीं कोई छोर मिलने
की क्षीण आशा लिये।
अगले ही क्षण गणना
में लग जाता कि
कितनी भूलें की जीवन में।
आंखें बंद करता तो
सहस्र नयन मिलते घूरते
आशय था एक यक्ष प्रश्न
ऐसा क्या किया तुमने
जो तुम्हारा नाम लें।
पलायनवादी, कापुरुष जैसे
अलंकारों से अलंकृत किया
इसी उहापोह में बैठा खंडित
भग्न, आहत मन लिये।
आक्रमणों का वृहत भंवर
प्रताड़नाओं की बार-बार
उठतीं लहरें,विदिर्ण कर
जातीं हृदय और कर
जातीं आत्मा को आहत।
भारी कदमों पर सहसा
खड़ा होकर मानव चल
पड़ा किसी ओर,
न कोई दिशा न लक्ष्य।
कदाचित अनंत की ओर।

PRIMARY EDUCATION: A PATHETIC SPECTRE

 Indeed, primary education in our country draws its sordid state. Neither the corrective measures are inculcated, nor taught seriously. Most of the teachers do their jobs indifferently. The words, either be it of any language(Hindi, English etc.) are pronounced wrong.The regrettable fact is that they don’t get even the right information. It is quite shocking and alarming for the guardians.
The situation is getting grim. As a matter of fact, this indifference costs one in the long run. Whenever the guardians go through the workbooks and exercise books, several mistakes are seen. Even the wrong words and spellings are marked correct. When the teacher is asked about it they just put the lame excuse. They say that how it is possible in so many students. The guardians get confused that whom are they talking with. At least such reply is not expected from a teacher. I would like to put an example in this context.
The teachers usually use shortened form of some words during explaining. At least they should say a complete word especially in the primary classes. Once I asked my son about his general knowledge book and he was confused. When I took out the book from the bag and showed him. His immediate response was Its GK. It is said that the teacher is next to God. So, they would have to take that much pain. They are carving the future of a child. On the other hand, the pronunciations are very dismal. Its really irritating when a child pronounces FRACTION as FU-RACTION /ˈfəræk.ʃ ə n/ , SPHERE as SU-PHERE /səfɪə r / etc. Agreed that in Punjabi there is no combination of letters(alphabets). But is HINDI and ENGLISH there is. It is expected that English and Hindi should be taught accordingly. Once there was a shocking piece of evidence that the President of India was named Mohammed Ansari. It is common that the President is Mr. Pranab Mukherjee.
These instances compel us to rethink for our children. On which way are the moving? Subsequently, if any student gets place in merit list, its their maximum effort. The school’s role seems minimum . In the name of public school they charge a hefty amount. What do they give in return is easily assumed. When the base won’t be strong how can their personality be built.
 In fact, it is the time for the people to be alert in this regard. Something harmful will occur if they don’t be aware at this right time. The ominous silence is spread all around.

AAP:WOULD HISTORY BE REPEATED?

IndiBloggers.inAam Admi Party convenor and former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is again in the field with his team blowing the trumpet of promises.And it contains providing free wi-fi connectivity in Delhi.However,the party has decided not to present a manifesto,but to interact with the different sections of the society.

Indeed the AAP gives a nice start to its campaign. But as the time passes the party leaders get confusing deliberately due to administrative bankruptcy. The overconfident leader(especially Kejriwal) starts acting haphazardly just to challenge the current political system. Ultimately the situation appears to be re melodramatic. The party leaders would have to learn how to run a government.
Despite being in power, the leaders act as opposition. So, firstly they have to develop the mentality to be administrative and to tackle the upheavals coming in the way.They have to be develop perseverance and above all tolerance for it. The jugglery can’t work in running a government. Though it is bestowed by  other political parties too. So, if the AAP government replaces jugglery from the system,it would be a memorable part of the government.
During  its previous tenure the party made the call of referendum. Obviously the crisis arose due to its fault.Kejriwal Terming Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party corrupt, Kejriwal refused to take support of any one. Later had to accept Congress support to form a government. Afterwards to satisfy its ego, raised the issue of JanLokpal and resigned from the government.
Interestingly, the JanLokpal bill seems abolished from the party this time.It is not even pronounced.
