A woman by birth, an Indian by heart and software engineer by chance, wife to a wonderful man & mother to an adorable little princess by destiny, a humorous wisecracker, avid reader, decent singer by choice. That in a nut-shell is me. Stay with me as I share with you my views on life.

Dark ages are a thing of past. Really?

For a progressive nation like India, its a shame that some of our so-called "Community leaders still live and swear by the dark ages. Read about one such great icon here.

Honor killings, social boycotts, sati and God know what else is still being preached, practised and followed in the interior parts of the country. And the wily politicians, astute in the game of vote bank politics, make a blind man look more pro-active. God bless India.

Mera Bharat mahaan.

We indeed are in the land of contradictions.
