After a decade as a journalist I'm back here full circle writing on what I truly love - people's mobilization to create revolutions! Monday, August 22, 2011. Anna's 'monster' Jan Lokpal scares me. Anna Hazare has good intentions but his Jan Lokpal Bill scares me. Team Anna wants to create another draconian structure because they say that the draconian structures we already have in our society are no longer any good. The premise of Jan Lokpal bill is based on a system of 'respectable non-corrupt' offi...

When society depends on a television show to probe into their lives to find the dirt, speak out loud what was spoken in hushed tones, find a remedy and bring a revolution, isn't it really expecting too much? Sunday, 7 May 2012: 11 am. The show generated great shock and awe and got everyone talking, tweeting, writing...

India’s daughter is a story of the December 2012 Delhi gang rape victim Jyoti Singh who everyone knows better as Nirbhaya – the fearless one.

Seven out of ten people I spoke to today told me they did not know who Kony was until two weeks ago. The one who knew is an African and two still don’t have a clue. So who is Kony and why has he suddenly gained so much popularity? I’m not convinced that the Kony 2012 campaign will achieve anything apart fr...

After a decade as a journalist I'm back here full circle writing on what I truly love - people's mobilization to create revolutions! Wednesday, January 4, 2012. Stephen Lawrence, Anuj Bidve and Britain's racial hues. This case has tremendous significance on primarily three factors: race relations, policing and campaigning journalism. Brian Cartcart, author of the ‘Case of Stephen Lawrence’ says:. British society is notorious for turning a blind eye towards race discrimination and hesitant to label incide...

After a decade as a journalist I'm back here full circle writing on what I truly love - people's mobilization to create revolutions! Friday, July 8, 2011. Murder on Fleet Street. The Guardian’s recent expose of how the NoW’s hired detective used subterfuge to hack onto phones of unsuspecting civilians including a murdered teenager Milly Dowler shocked everyone. It created a huge public outrage and not without reason. Or a wife telling her lover that with the husband dead now, they were free to elope?

After a decade as a journalist I'm back here full circle writing on what I truly love - people's mobilization to create revolutions! Friday, February 25, 2011. Gaddafi's people of mass destruction. With every passing day it is clearly evident that Col Muammar Gaddafi’s days are numbered. Yet Gaddafi refuses to step down. While the rulers of. Bowed down to the pro democracy protests, Gaddafi is still shouting threats at those standing against his regime. Is no longer anything the famed dictator of. Includ...

Reflections: RIP Muammar Gaddafi

After a decade as a journalist I'm back here full circle writing on what I truly love - people's mobilization to create revolutions! Wednesday, March 23, 2011. While I write this Muammar Gaddafi is alive is kicking (hopefully himself after hearing his Air Force exists no more! Yet I think his end is near and it's time to pen down his obituary. And its only fair to start with the positives. Yet, somewhere down the line he became the destroyer of Libya. His four decade long rule saw him take Libya back...

After a decade as a journalist I'm back here full circle writing on what I truly love - people's mobilization to create revolutions! Tuesday, April 19, 2011. Syrian Revolution moves from Above to Below. Over four decades ago, Syria saw a revolution that brought the Ba’th party to power. The Ba’th party calls it the ‘Eight of March Revolution’ but it can be best described as what Trimberger called it - ‘revolution from above’. The then President Hafez al-Assad was at the forefront of the leadership that l...
