केजरीवाल ने नरेंद्र मोदी को लिखी चिट्ठी, कहा, मुकेश अंबानी के बारे में अपना रुख साफ करें

By Dilip -
आम आदमी पार्टी के संयोजक और दिल्ली के पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री अरविंद केजरीवाल ने गैस कीमतों के मुद्दे पर भाजपा के प्रधानमंत्री पद के उम्मीदवार नरेंद्र मोदी को चिट्ठी लिखकर उनसे अपना रुख जाहिर करने को कहा।
केजरीवाल ने एक संवाददाता सम्मेलन में मोदी को लिखी गई चिट्ठी के बारे में विस्तार से जानकारी देते हुए कहा कि मोदी यह बताएं कि गैस कीमतों के मुद्दे पर उनकी राय क्या है। केजरीवाल ने मोदी से उनकी रैलियों पर हो रहे खर्चे के बारे में भी सवाल किया और कहा कि मोदी देश की जनता के सवालों के जवाब दें।

केजरीवाल ने  मोदी को लिखे पत्र में पूछा कि भाजपा के चुनावी खर्च और पार्टी के चुनाव अभियान को कौन लोग फंड कर रहे हैं, इसे सार्वजनिक करें। पत्र पढ़ते हुए केजरीवाल ने कहा, आप प्रधानमंत्री पद के उम्मीदवार हैं, लेकिन मुद्दे पर आपने खामोशी क्यों ओढ़ रखी है। एक आम आदमी यह जानना चाहता है कि अगर आपकी पार्टी सरकार बनाती है और आप प्रधानमंत्री बनते हैं, तो क्या आप गैस कीमत 8 डॉलर प्रति यूनिट से कम कर 4 डॉलर तक लाएंगे।

केजरीवाल ने मोदी से सवाल किया, मुकेश अंबानी के साथ आपका क्या संबंध है? केजरीवाल ने आरोप लगाया कि मुकेश अंबानी यूपीए सरकार चला रहे हैं और पूछा कि अगर मोदी सत्ता में आते हैं, तो क्या उनकी सरकार भी रिलायंस इंडस्ट्रीज के अध्यक्ष चलाएंगे? उन्होंने कहा, आप अपने भाषणों में स्विस बैंकों से पैसे लाने की बात करते हैं, लेकिन अंबानी बंधुओं का इन बैंकों में पैसा है। अगर, अंबानियों के साथ आपका अच्छा संबंध है और अगर वे आपको फंड करते हैं, तो आप काला धन लाएंगे?

केजरीवाल ने अपनी चिट्ठी में लिखी बात का जिक्र करते हुए कहा, आप और राहुल गांधी निजी हेलिकॉप्टरों का इस्तेमाल करते हैं, ये हेलिकॉप्टर किनके हैं... क्या आप ये मुफ्त में पाते हैं या इसके लिए पैसे चुकाते हैं? रैलियों में खर्च हो रहे पैसे किनके हैं? क्या यह सच है कि मुकेश अंबानी आपके लिए फंडिंग करते हैं? आपसे हाथ जोड़कर आग्रह है कि अपनी चुप्पी तोड़ें।

केजरीवाल ने कहा कि सरकार की गैस मूल्य नीति में खोट है। इसका मकसद मुकेश अंबानी को फायदा पहुंचाना है। गैस कीमतों में बढ़ोतरी से सभी जरूरी सामानों की कीमतें बढ़ जाएंगी। एंटी करप्शन ब्यूरो ने मुकेश अंबानी के खिलाफ एफआईआर दर्ज कर रखी है।

उन्होंने कहा कि इस चिट्ठी की 10 करोड़ प्रतियां छापकर देश की जनता के बीच बांटी जाएगी। केजरीवाल ने यह भी कहा कि वह ऐसी ही चिट्ठी शनिवार को राहुल गांधी को भी लिखेंगे और उस चिट्ठी की प्रतियां भी लोगों में बांटी जाएंगी।

Haruki Murakami: On seeing the 100% perfect girl one beautiful April morning

By Dilip -
According to Murakami, “1Q84” is just an amplification of one of his most popular short stories,   which (in its English version) is five pages long. “Basically, it’s the same,” he told me. “A boy meets a girl. They have separated and are looking for each other. It’s a simple story. I just made it long.” One beautiful April morning, on a narrow side street in Tokyo's fashionable Harujuku neighborhood, I walked past the 100% perfect girl. Tell you the truth, she's not that good-looking. She doesn't stand out in any way. Her clothes are nothing special. The back of her hair is still bent out of shape from sleep. She isn't young, either - must be near thirty, not even close to a "girl," properly speaking. But still, I know from fifty yards away: She's the 100% perfect girl for me. The moment I see her, there's a rumbling in my chest, and my mouth is as dry as a desert..." read the story: http://www.youmightfindyourself.com/post/22131227...

Albert Camus's lecture 'The Human Crisis', New York, March 1946. 'No cause justifies the murder of innocents'

By Dilip -
The morning after a great historical crisis, you feel as sad and sick as after a heavy night. But there is no aspirin for historical hangovers .. The world is no longer divided into the just or unjust, but into masters and slaves. He who is right is he who enslaves.  Albert Camus     La crise de l'homme : THE HUMAN CRISIS   (Text read by Viggo Mortensen on March 28 2016)   Ladies and Gentlemen: when I was invited to give a series of lectures in the United States of America, I felt some doubt and hesitation. I am really not old enough to give lectures, and I am more at ease with the process of thinking than I am making categorical statements... since I don't feel I have any claim on what is generally called the truth. I shared this reservation and was very politely told that my personal opinion didn't matter. What mattered was that I'd be able to offer some facts about France so that my listeners could form their own opinions. It was then suggested...

The Almond Trees by Albert Camus (1940)

By Dilip -
Image
'Do you know', Napoleon once said to Fontanes, 'what astounds me most about the world?  The impotence of force to establish anything.  There are only two powers in the world: the sword and the mind.  In the end, the sword is always conquered by the mind' Conquerors, you see, are sometimes melancholy.  They have to pay some price for so much vainglory. But what a hundred years ago was true of the sword is no longer true today of the tank. Conquerors have made progress, and the dismal silence of places without intelligence has been established for years at a time in a lacerated Europe. At the time of the hideous wars of Flanders, Dutch painters could still perhaps paint the cockerels in their farmyards. The Hundred Years War has likewise been forgotten, and yet the prayers of Silesian mystics still linger in some hearts. But today, things have changed; the painter and the monk have been drafted - we are one with the world.  The mind has lost that regal certai...

James Gilligan on Shame, Guilt and Violence

By Dilip -
Shame, Guilt, and Violence / James Gilligan During the past 35 years I have used prisons and prison mental hospitals as "laboratories" in which to investigate the causes and prevention of the various forms of violence and the relationships between these forms and to what I will call (with a nod to William James) "the varieties of moral experience." In the course of that work, I have been struck by the frequency with which I received the same answer when I asked prisoners, or mental patients, why they assaulted or even killed someone. Time after time, they would reply "because he disrespected me" or "he disrespected my visitor [or wife, mother, sister, girl-friend, daughter, etc.]." In fact, they used that phrase so often that they abbreviated it into the slang phrase, "He dis'ed me." Whenever people use a word so often that they abbreviate it, it is clearly central to their moral and emotional vocabulary. But even when they did n...

This prose poem is the final chapter of her book  In the Heart of the Heart of Another Country .  Read more about her here  - DS To Be In A Time Of War To say nothing, do nothing, mark time, to bend, to straighten up, to blame oneself, to stand, to go toward the window, to change one’s mind in the process, to return to one’s chair, to stand again, to go to the bathroom, to close the door, to then open the door, to go to the kitchen, to not eat nor drink, to return to the table, to be bored, to take a few steps on the rug, to come close to the chimney, to look at it, to find it dull, to turn left until the main door, to come back to the room, to hesitate, to go on, just a bit, a trifle, to stop, to pull the right side of the curtain, then the other side, ...

After the Truth Shower

By Dilip -
Dear Readers Thank you for reading my blog for the past eleven years. (This is a link to the new one) During this time it has had nearly 1.7 million hits; and I have posted over 9500 posts covering a variety of themes. From July 11 to 19, 2022, my blog was withdrawn by the Blogger administration on account of what its machinery suspected to be 'Impersonation'. It took over a week and the efforts of several well-wishers to get it back online I thank them all for their kindness and goodwill  My blog has always been - and remains - non-commercial. I have used it for academic purposes; and to foster a culture of debate and informed commentary in civil society. Because it contains a large amount of material gathered and collated for over a decade, I cannot afford to lose its contents. I hope it will remain undisturbed now and function as an archive. However, I have decided to use a new blog on WordPress as a platform for my newest comments and posts The new blog is titled After the...

The Republic of Silence – Jean-Paul Sartre on The Aftermath of War and Occupation (September 1944)

By Dilip -
Total responsibility in total solitude – is this not the very definition of our liberty? Jean-Paul Sartre was one of the most important philosophers and writers of the 20th century. He lived through World War II first as a French prisoner of war, then as a professor of philosophy associated with the underground socialist movement. Sartre writes of the Occupation: “Because the Nazi venom seeped into our very thoughts, every accurate thought was a triumph. Because an all-power police force tried to gag us, every word became precious as a declaration of principle.” Some of Sartre’s post-war writings have recently been collected in an English Language edition as  The Aftermath of War  and is published by Seagull Books, Kolkata. The Republic of Silence ( Lettres francaises , September 1944) We were never more free than during the German occupation. We had lost all our rights, beginning with the right to talk. Every day we were insulted to our faces and had to take ...
