The Power of Influence: A Tale of Two Controversies in Indian Sports

Introduction In the realm of international sports, the influence of governing bodies and the power of national associations play crucial roles in shaping outcomes and perceptions. This article explores two significant incidents involving Indian sports teams: the controversial Sydney Test cricket match between India and Australia in 2008, and the recent FIFA World Cup Qualifier football match between India and Qatar. These events highlight the importance of organizational power and influence in addressing grievances and safeguarding national interests. The Sydney Test 2008: A Turning Point in Cricket The Incident The Sydney Test in January 2008 between India and Australia is infamous for its controversial umpiring decisions and allegations of biased officiating. Several dubious decisions went against India, including questionable catches and inconsistent rulings on dismissals. The most notable incident was the allegation of racial abuse against Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh by Australi

Celebrating Self Destruction

I'm the mute spectator of my own death, Inhaling oxides of sulphur at my own will, Forgetting my own ethos to counter someone else , Bloodsheds don't amuse - Lemme go for my own kill. Loving the raging flames in my own lungs, Mocking those who try to work on goal, Sheathing the gills with the plastic, Global warming, Climate change and ozone hole, Lighting diyas for Facebook & Instagram, Soaking mantras and pooja with the bomb sound, Wisdom and Knowledge is far gone, You burst Diwali and I'm new year bound. The debates of euthanasia are signed in twitter wars, My festivities are D-Day for animals and mine for atmosphere, Let us both equate by killings plants together, That's my culture and that's my culture. I'm a human being. I once loved the life and its cycle, But the quest and greed for power has blinded me, The sin I'm doing don't have any resurrection, Once celebrated life now I'm celebrating self destruction.

Climate Change - Indians need endorsements or Introspection ?

A quivering and trembling voice of a teen girl resonated the crowns of the World leaders at United Nations. "How dare you ?" as she asked them, it awakened the limited time consciousness of the people around the globe including our nation. There were several retweets, facebook posts, Instagram Stories and placards and people on streets ( Placards of paper and plastics which will be in dustbin soon and people creating noise pollution as they say ). But a nation which was once 'WORLD LEADER' or 'VISHWA GURU' needs endorsements, movements and hashtags from West to wake up their conscience is something which hard to fathom. Specially for this generation to understand their duties towards environment and actual realization to bring those habits into their lifestyle shouldn't be difficult. We were introduced to Environmental Studies while we were in class 5th or 6th of our school lives. Right ? The compromises and adjustments which everyone needs to make i

Dawn of Debates - Tribute to 3 Indian role models of Oratory and Speeches

With the untimely demise of Shri. Arun Jaitely, dawn of articulated debates in Indian democracy has arrived. The 21st century youngsters never had the honour of listening to the speeches of the Mahatma, 'Tryst with destiny' of Pt. Nehru, parliamentary debates of Baba Sahah or Inspiring and patriotic speeches of Netaji. They weren't fortunate enough to witness sharp and accurate criticism of government by Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee and even JP's patient and silent heartthrobing speeches after emergency. But this generation had glimpses of most poetic orator with an ever energetic pause in his speeches delivered by Prime minister Shri. Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ji. The generation is fortunate to have YouTube clips of Atal Ji's roar in the parliament while announcing his resignation. A speech followed by the resignation can never be historical as it was. The prowess in the voice, the pauses, the conviction, the determination to come back again and the promise to his pe

उत्तर प्रदेश के डी.एन.ए में अगर कोई एक बात कूट कूट के भरी हुई है तो उसका नाम है राजनीति। राजनीतिक चर्चा , उत्तरप्रदेश और यूपी में रेल यात्रा ये ऐसा समीकरण है कि कोई भी महागठबंधन इसके आगे पानी पानी हो जाए। गाड़ी संख्या १४२५८ वाराणसी से चल के नई दिल्ली को जाने वाली काशी विश्वनाथ एक्सप्रेस में सफर का मज़ा कुछ और है क्योंकि जितनी राजनीतिक चर्चा और भाषणबाजी इस सफर में होती है उतनी दिल्ली स्थित संसद में हो जाए तो देश सुधर जाए। हमारी कालीन नगरी भदोही के रेलवे स्टेशन में आने से पहले ट्रेन एक घंटे विलंब से आयी । बड़े भइया से विदा लेते हुए मैं और मेरे मित्र इंजिनियरिंग आखिरी वर्ष के आखिरी चरण की लड़ाई के लिए अपने रथ पे सवार हो गए। सीट संख्या ५९ और ६२ पे चढ़ गए। मालूम पड़ा हमारे नीचे आंध्र से उत्तर भारत दर्शन को चले कुछ यात्रियों का जत्था है। मैं तेलुगु भाषा से परिचित था तो उनकी बातें समझ सकता था पर बाकी लोग उन्हें मंगल ग्रह के प्राणी की तरह देखकर अपने काम में वापस लग जा रहे थे। नीचे बैठी महिलाएं हमारे यहां ट्रेंड से बाहर जा चुकी बनारसी साड़ियों का अंबार लगाई हुई थी और उसी की चर्चा में व्यस्त
