    it will be bit diffcult for a nationalist like you to digest what I am saying..i am not saying that BJP is god..but their harassment of minorities causes the almighty in whom the minorities believe to anger and he will show his anger in the form of natural calamities..you might remember the earthquakes that hit gujarat after the minorities were harassed there as well the floods that killed 10000 in orissa soon after missionary and his sons were burnt alive...Hope you got my point...be careful...in Karnataka also days are not far if the blue JP does not change its stance against minorities..

    My God ! I never saw in my life such lasting streaks of lightening and loud roars of thunder as it happened today ! I was certain that the uproar will cause some fatality somewhere ! RIP the departed, and speedy recovery to those injured.

    Let god listen your prayers... I have been witnessing people roam freely on roads and open areas when sky is making such a roar with heavy wind and rain. People are not bothered to immediately take shelter even in such situations. They have a firm belief that it is a rare phenomenon. Like so many awareness drives going on around, I request the administration, teachers, progressive thinkers with scientific temper, social activists etc to have a serious look on this. Of course I am also trying my best as and when I meet people. Sadly, I also faced some discouraging voice from some. That doesn't hinder my views but I know I am in right way regarding. I also personally saw the lightening strikes two times and the smoke came out before me. I was horrific. Our civic society appear afterwards to condole, distribute compensation etc. Something constructive than this is the need of the hour.
