The Recent Political Drift in Jammu And Kashmir

Today was a shocking day for all political enthusiasts as BJP backed out from the coalition government with PDP in J&K. Before discussing the political turmoil of today, I would like to enlighten all my readers with the current assembly seat distribution of J&K.

PDP-28 seats 
BJP -25 seats
NC(National Congress) -15 seats
INC(Indian National Congress) - 12 seats

The seats required for majority = 44 seats and the current coalition was effectively making 53 seats (BJP + PDP). But now the scenario has changed, but let's see the possible reasons because of which BJP backed out of the coalition.

Reason 1-Terror is on rise and BJP doesn't want to be a part of a failed coalition. But these issues are not valid enough because they were exiting since last year so why backing out now ...... I guess something is fishy. 

Reason 2- As soon as BJP backed out, CM Mufti resigned from her post giving clear signals that an alternative government with NC and INC is not a possibility (provided the historic rivalry between NC and INC).This leads to speculations that Mufti was very rigid in her decisions and these decisions didn't strike a good deal with the BJP leadership in J&K.

Reason 3- Modi government wants more control over the military in J&K and if BJP backs out of Kashmir then J&K will be under governors rule which implies that central government will be handling the Kashmir issue all by themselves. This indicates that another political /surgical Strike is bound to happen ! and very soon.

I personally feel that the timing of the potential surgical strike will be before the start of Amarnath yatra!

The third reason seems to be a more sought out reason but it must be executed properly for maximum output. This reason benefits the country as well as BJP is campaigning for next Lok Sabha election (A similar strategy used by them before UP assembly elections)

PS - I am not a hardcore BJP supporter.

Football a Global Phenomenon - Brand Fifa

Hi people , last night I was watching this game between Mexico and Germany . Hell of a thriller it was . Well I am not a sports columnist , so I will refrain myself from going into the details of the match ( provided of the fact , am so desperate to talk about it :-) ) . While spectating the match , I saw something bigger , something more gripping than the constant counter attacks   . There was something that caught my attention apart from the game . Yes , I am talking about the millions of fans and spectators around the globe . The emotions and drama associated with the viewers all acrossss the world . Why are people so much attached to this game ??? Okay , one possible reason that comes to our mind is patriotism , just the fact that your country is playing out there , and you want to see your nation lifting the trophy on this grand stage . But , there are around 1.03 Billion people out there , who are mad about this sport , I guess everybody’s country aint have qualifieded f...

Fuel cell vs Electric Car...... Battle For Road

We have recently witnessed an increase in electric cars around the globe . The change may not be quite visible in India but in developed economies , this change  is very significant . For instance , in America the average sales of electric car went up by 25 percent in year 2018. Still with so much coverage given to electric cars , automobile giants are up to research on some thing else... guess what ! fuel cell cars . Yes the same fuel cell which we studied in high school, the cell which used to use hydrogen as a source of energy and release steam as output. Isn't it fascinating. Recently Toyota and Nissan have launched their FCV(Fuel Cell Vehicle) in the market and the Japanese Government is planning to build robust infrastructure for hydrogen stations across the country. This gives us an insight that we have two options to run our car from ? What are we gonna chose !! The fuel Cell Vehicle uses hydrogen to run the car and since hydrogen is a very important industry gas , t...

The real face of Feminism!

On this occasion of the birthday of a powerful and empowered woman - Madonna , I would like throw light on prevalent topic affecting the society influenced by a certain group of people. Feminism is a term you people would be very familiar to. I am sure there is no need to, but for the sake of doing it, feminism is defined as advocating of women's right on the principle of equality of gender. I somehow feel that this term has been wrongfully misused in some if not all scenarios in the recent past. For instance, there is a lot of big talk about the absence of spokesperson and technical heads in the IT department specially in India. However, we have somehow ignored the fact that the girl to boy ratio in IIT'S is less that 0.2. Furthermore, according to a survey, lack of self confidence among coaching girls despite having mathematical skills was highlighted as the sole reason for this. It is absolutely spectacular to watch this wave of equality in all fields a...
