Road Sense, Non Sense


To all... Here is a quick look at the traffic caos on the hyderabad roads. First there are people who dont care about traffic sense, then there are cops who dont even care about their respect in public. Added to that there are designed number plates all over the roads. Sometimes I even got confused whether My car has the right one or not. But then checked the rules and seems like atleast me and my friends are fine and strictly follow atleast this aspect of the traffic sense. Thanks to cops though who dont really care about how the number plates look like. if its a big car, then they have no right to challan it, and if its a small car anyway they dont care.. :) Some of the number plate types in my collection are below. No offence though to any.


This one is one of the first when i started my collection. Then there were many. Kind of readable but still against the rules.














One of the good ones collected is below.

This ine already had a devil's evil digits on it. but stylish and unattractive.
Have more on the go. Similar ones are seen all over the
and you cant miss more than some i have below.













The colectors edition number plate is the one below. Really amazing and you really need skill to read it.. :)






Anyway.... there are other silly, stupid but funny things you can capture on hyderabad roads. Check some below.

I dont understand the very idea of this. But really interesting to take a better look at yourself before someone crashes on you from behind.. :)
















The second bike is not even registered yet. already the mirrors are showing their use. Not only guy, but even girls have their honda Activa or any scooty mirrors turned like this. I hope they have some idea about what they have done.

Its a punishable offense to drive without a mirror. But this doesn't come under the law...haha... :)

Another fun time is in the heavy traffic times. if traffic is low, everyone is a good driver. ones the traffic is heavy, people start to show their true colors. Here is one such situation.
Its a four lane road, and a'T' junction. The traffic was blocked on the left approach lane to the junction. The vehicles coming form behind just took the oncoming lane fomr the junction to enter the junction on to mumbai road. Now these are the people who have really nice cars and well educated as most of them are going to HiTech city, software hub for work. Either they are morons or software engineers.
















So Driving in Hyderabad is FUN...!!!!

War of the Worlds...!!!

Moral policing has become a rage in today's world by the politically motivated chauvinists. Call them the moral police or the Saffron brigade or Kannada Rakshana vedike or Sri Ram sena or Bajrang dal etc etc... names are many... but the motivation and the action are same.. though the results are not.
Every social structure has this anti-social elements in them. Like the social structure of any state in India for that mater. Does Hinduism or any religion in India support violence against women?. If it does, then what is their commitment in today's world?
If they have the right to be violent, because they are against the youth culture of the modern times, then my advice to them, - "Grow up!!!"
Law as its written our country says any common man cannot take law into his hands even if he is witness to any unlawful acts. His duty is to inform the police or the authorities who can take action against the unlawful. Now the question is, is the law and order of the state so blunt and lost its once manly men on duty for the moral policing. Who ever attacked the pubs, and dance bars in Mangalore and Bangalore, why are they still free in the society. Why do comman man allow such things to happen? Is people of Karnataka so lethargic and lack the attitude to stand up against all these happenings thresting their very own lives? Are the parents sure of getting their children back one day when thigs will go wrong in a public place?. Will some hero from the common raise up to do somethings unlawful according to books, but take these saffron brigade into task.??
Police and law have lost their manliness, and no real men exist in these forces now. So its the common men and women who can stand against this now.. Its terrorism in the Hindu sense. even though they say its for the societies good, that's what the Taliban, mujaheddin doing.. good for their society...!!.. killing other societies for the good of their own.
Now its the chance of people to decide what they really want from the law makers. I suggest, if a violence happens, the right thing to do is to remove all top officials from that locality, including politicians and commissioners and police and replace them to already violent areas. Let them live their life the way they want.
Its time for the people to stand for what they want. Oppose all wrong things they are forced into their lives. Ignore all ill facted news and get their new lives form their homes. Accept every society without racist outlook and respect every society and religions they respect and love theirs. I hope some day people start thinking with their brains and not with others who claim to be the leaders. Ya.. the leaders to the disaster in a society though...
Its just one question that every one need to ask themselves before doing anything in life.
"Is it worth it?..!!"
I hope for a better Bangalore, a better Mangalore, better Mysore, Mandya, and for all a better Karnataka, Kerala, Andra, Bihar, Maharastra, Delhi..etc etc...
This is a new clip of the assaulting SriRam Sena members. They beat up girls and boys who were in the lounge bar on Saturday on that unfortunate weekend.


Video: Times of India

Also a clip to show the Sri Ram sena chief Pramod Mutalik justifying his actions on the attack.


Video: Time of India

He says that the parents are worried about their girls going outside.. they don't know where they are and what they are doing when they go out. He claims there were drug abuse and indecent behavior of girls and boys in the lounge.
Now let the parents decide whether they want their children be moral policed by this saffron brigadiers or by themselves. If any parents come out and say that they are happy with this action, then i bow to them and their wisdom they have gained over the years. But if they don't support why not come out and show their anger on this so called self proclaimed dictator of the morality of people in this area?
He says the action should not be called as Talibanization and its a small incident. If he calls this a small incident and worried about other parents girls, i suggest he look into his own family and clean it up. where his son is going or his daughter is going over the weekends and what they are doing?
protesting against this is his right and there is no question of mom's sisters or daughters coming in here he says...
Here is the clip iof one of the girls who was targetted on that fateful evening.
Pramod Mutalik says he was protecting the culture and the parents anxiety about their children. And here is the first hand recount of the incident by one of the victims.


Video: Time of India

Pramod Mutalik says the good guys had to take the bad guys to task by punishing them by beating and molesting them. But if this is what the good guys do, then "Hail" our country for this. Our country has come so far. Hail Sri Ram for this who is told to have some respect toward his women and towards his pupils. Now I doubt all the tales of ramayan and all mytholigy of india as a whole. Hystory and the prest will talk louder than the mythologies now.
Shame Sri Ram, Shame India!!!!

So republic India.. is it still republic and independent??
I doubt.

Take care all Parents and children. Theres more to see if none wants to react to this incident.
