Hindi Bloggers Punch Meeting in Lucknow

Who says there is no spice in Hindi blog world need to look at recent blogger’s meet in Lucknow which instead of nazakat was full of blows. News goes like this.. Saleem Ali with his not so healthy intentions is making the blogspace a lot murkier for some time now. But it was time for some real action. It so happened that Mehfooz, Salim and Saurabh met and while Mehfooz conveniently slipped as and when required Salim and Saurabh cam to blow repeatedly. It is interesting to note that like a true blogger Mehfooz chose to blog rather then intervene :)

hanste hanste took some nice pinches on these punches

Asha Ram Bapu : A Sex Maniac Tanktrik?

imageIn sensational breaking posts two Hindi Blogs claimed that renowned, and not always for nice reasons saint AshaRam Bapu has a satanic face. Michal Chandan quoted from the account of old disciple Bapu that Asha Ram is involved in black magic tricks and is involved with many sadhikaas of his ashrams. 

aasharam bapu ka kai mahilaon ke sath avaidh rishta hai। yah sant ke bhesh men havas ka pujari hai।aasharam bapu ko maine aashram ki kai sadhikaon ke sath sharirik sanbandh banate hue dekha hai। yah kala jaadu karta hai। mahilaon par yah teen-teen ghante tak tantrik kriya karta hai। bad men unamen kai ke sath sharirik sanbandh bhi banata hai ।

Another Hindi blog reminds its readers that Asharam and His son are involved in a number of scandals earlier as well.

aasharam pahle bhi kai vivaadon men ghire rahe hai। aasharam ke bete par bhi aashram ki kai sadhikaon ke sath yaun shoshan ka aarop lag chuka hai julai 2008 men ahamadabad sthit unake aashram men do chhatr rahasyamay paristhitiyon men mrit paaye ge the। un par kala jaadu kar tantrik kriya kiye jaane ka aarop laga tha। us mamale men abhi bhi aasharam sandeh ke ghere men hai।

It is an open secret that Anup (Fursatiya) and Sameer are not at best of their terms. Inside story attribute it to a wedding party in samir’s family things did came out but not quite. Both stars of the blogdom are diplomatic best not to spill beans though beans are quite bagful so they do come out occasionally. In recent Allahabad conference episode it bacame more then obvious. Not to mention the grapevine stuff that actually flows behind the scene in chats and phone calls. But when khushdeep raised the issue in his post Sameer politely declined and said terms with Guruji are just fine-

(Thanks to Google Script Convertor now it is possible to quote the blogs in roman itself)

..lekin ek baat khatakti rahi ki donon men aapas men tanaav kyon jhalakta hai...ya vo sirf mauj ke lie ise jhalakte dikhana chahate hain....kya ye tanaav thik vaisa hi hai jaisa ki chunbak ke do sajateeya dhruvon ke pas aane par hota hai...jitana is gutthi ko sulajhane ki koshish ki, mere lie utani hi ye roobik ke pajjal ki tarah vikat hoti gi.

Stars obviouly don’t want to wash the linen so publicly so sameer’s response is gracefull

hamari apne aapako chela se gud hone ka jhootha ahasaas jaahir karne ki lalsa jayegi nahin aur unki muskarate hue hamen dharati par tikaye rakhne ki aadat..to aise lekhaneeya dvand to dikhte hi rahenge, unase pareshan hone ki jarurat nahin. ham bhi pareshan nahin hote balki mauj kiya karte hain ki agli bar poorv hausle aur josh kharosh se siddh larenge. :)

You guys decide I find the little mun mutaav just okay :)

Chitthacharcha Turns 1000

This week Chitthacharch the popular Hindi Review blog churned out 1000th post. Post wasn’t made a gala event and Kavita gave her post as routine but did mention the milestone. By and large the blogger appreciated the effort. In his post Anup recalled how some English bloggers during the Bharat Blog Mela (BBM) days tride to humiliate the then very small Hindi Blogging fraternity which gave rise to platform of Hindi Chitthacharcha. Five years is long time when we talk of internet.

2nd Installment of 6th Pay Commission Arrears is coming

It is reported in a section pf press that second and final installment of sixth pay commission arrears is scheduled to be paid next month. It is important to note that Arrears of sixth pay commission were to be paid in two installments, While first installment of 40% of arrears was paid in last FY, second installment of 60% of arrears is due in this FY. Now it is being reported that this installment will be paid in September 2009. Some are linking it to recovery of economy as well. Public expenditure of this order will help in increasing the demand thereby giving a boost to economy.

In a latest panga, Pangebaj Arun withdrew his post after the legal patriarch of Hindi Blogosphere Dineshji advised in strangely worded mail to Arun. Arun’s original post which is still available to web world , Net do not forget things easily!!

Whole thing is about annoyance to  the way legal fraternity is addressing the Kasab episode there wasn’t anything against Dineshji except a veiled sarcasm for lawyers. Lawyer friend Dinesh reacted with an email that on first reading is concern and advice but closer readings suggests otherwise. It was advised that if post is not removed Arun is likely to face judicial music, with judges being sold two a penny, Arun succumbed and now post is not available at his blog.

My understanding is that by removing the post still making the email public what Arun has done is nothing but what he is best in…taking panga. He is not scared as some suggesting but is actually blowing the bigul hard. Episode is far from over.

Pratik informed by an email today that IPLKhabar.com  is providing bal to ball coverage, scores, news and views on IPL world in Hindi. Now that is quite a news because despite all threadbare coverage including from fakeplayer, Hindi world was forced to digest the firang version. Till now I am not sure if it is venture of Pratik himself or Pratik just announced it but it is important nonetheless. It is however saddening that due to discriminatory policies of adsenses regarding language, IPLKhabar is not getting paying adsense revenue but showing public service ads only thereby making this venture commercially unviable. Hope Google will get wisdom soon.

I’ve not tested the ball to ball coverage aspect that I will today when my dear Delhi daredavil will meet the facinating Deccan Chargers today. If IPLKhabar is taking pains to do the ball to ball coverage in Hindi by itself then it is big big thing and they deserve good revenue from it, may be they should head to non google ad services.

Now while Malvika at HT reported that someone is blogging the dirty secrets at IPL, the whole net is going awry to find the dirty blog :)-

A blogger, who calls himself IPL anonymous, is digging up dirt on players, owners and coaches. Fakeiplplayer.blogspot.com is where the off-pitch action is. The blogger, who claims to be a part of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), could be a player or a crew member. But he’s bringing the aankhon dekha haal from inside the dressing rooms and the bedrooms.

This blog has become a hit in no time. with really dirty yet funny nuances. mandira may (not) mind -

At least Sandy Baddy Babe has a few tricks up her sleeve to distract the viewer from what she says.

Anyway the Cricket league is forced to rely on these non cricketing stuff afterall rain isn’t allowing much cricket otherwise.

The inaugral day at T20 was dissapointing for finalists of last edition. Pratik in his post which is the only post so far from Hindi blogworld. What is intresting is the fact that the Premier League is obviously not just cricket. It is all about cheerleading and the the dog intrusion into the field. Yes bollywood is invading the field  and there are words that Dhoni’s beloved is likely to be present.

Next days match are among Delhi Daredavils vs kings of Punjab.   Kolkata Knight Riders vs Deccan Chargers. Match is vailable Live on Sony SMax. and live on Cricinfo as well.

Muthalik has a lot of catching up to do

I chanced upon this piece at Pak tribune, it lists the list of dont’s being implemented at Swat in Pakistan by Taliban. I realise that though Muthalik and his men are doing very shameful acts but they have lot of catching up to do if they want to imitate their idols across the border. look at the list:

1- Complete ban on women’s work outside the home, which also applied to female teachers, engineers and most professionals. Only a few female doctors and nurses were allowed to work in some hospitals to look after the female patients only.

2- Complete ban on women’s activity outside the home unless accompanied by a ‘mahram’ (close male relative such as a father, brother or husband).

3- Ban on women dealing with male shopkeepers.

4- Ban on women being treated by male doctors.

5- Ban on women studying at schools, universities or any other educational institution. (The Swat Taliban have already let their distaste for women’s education be known by bombing close to 200 girl’s schools in the past few months.)

6- Requirement that women wear a long veil (Burqa), which covers them from head to toe.

7- Whipping, beating and verbal abuse of women not clothed in accordance with Taliban rules, or of women unaccompanied by a mahram.

8- Whipping of women in public for having non-covered ankles.

9- Public stoning of women (and men) accused of having sex outside marriage. (A number of lovers were stoned to death under this rule).

10- Ban on the use of cosmetics.

11- Ban on women talking or shaking hands with non-mahram males.

12- Ban on women laughing loudly. (No stranger should hear a woman’s voice).

13- Ban on women wearing high heel shoes, which would produce sound while walking. (A man must not hear a woman’s footsteps.)

14- Ban on women riding in a taxi without a mahram.

15- Ban on women’s presence in radio, television or public gatherings of any kind.

16- Ban on women playing sports or entering a sport center or club.

17- Ban on women riding bicycles or motorcycles, even with their mahrams.

18- Ban on women’s wearing brightly colored clothes. In Taliban terms, these are “sexually attracting colors.”

19- Ban on women gathering for festive occasions such as the Eids, or for any recreational purpose.

20- Ban on women washing clothes next to rivers or in a public place.

21- Modification of all place names including the word “women.” For example, “women’s garden” had been renamed “spring garden”.

22- Ban on women appearing on the balconies of their apartments or houses.

23- Compulsory painting of all windows, so women can not be seen from outside their homes.

24- Ban on male tailors taking women’s measurements or sewing women’s clothes.

25- Ban on males and females traveling on the same bus. Public buses were designated “males only” (or “females only”).

26- Ban on the photographing or filming of women.

27- Ban on women’s pictures printed in newspapers and books, or hung on the walls of houses and shops.

Apart from the above restrictions on women, the Afghan Taliban also had:

- Banned listening to music, not only for women but men as well.

- Banned the watching of movies, television and videos, for everyone.(Witness the bombing of audio/video shops in the NWFP Province)

- Ordered that all people with non-Islamic names change them to Islamic ones.

- Forced haircuts upon Afghan youth.

- Ordered that men wear Islamic clothes and a cap.

- Ordered that men not shave or trim their beards, which should grow long enough to protrude from a fist clasped at the point of the chin. (Witness the bombing of barber shops in the NWFP Province)

- Ordered that all people attend prayers in mosques five times daily.(As if obeisance to God could be ordered by dictat)

- Banned the keeping of pigeons and playing with the birds, describing it as un-Islamic. The violators were imprisoned and the birds were killed.

- Ordered all onlookers, while encouraging the sportsmen, to chant Allah-o-Akbar (God is great) and refrain from clapping.

- Ban on certain games including kite flying which was considered “un-Islamic” by the Taliban.

- Anyone who carried ‘objectionable literature’ was liable to be executed.

- Anyone who converts from Islam was liable to be executed.

- All boy students wore turbans. They said “No turban, no education”.

- Non-Muslim minorities wore distinct badge or stitch a yellow cloth onto their dress to be differentiated from the majority Muslim population. (Just like what Nazis did with Jews)

- Banned the use of the internet by both ordinary Afghans and foreigners.

Blog feminism takes the ‘real’ test

Blog feminism is not new to Hindi blogosphere, its here for some time now. To talk numbers we can say it is at least one year old. Chokherbali which switched to its custom domain recently is now one year old. All these days Chokherbali some 38 women and men were talking and taking virtually everyone but virtually only. There were couple of print mentions, stories and cover stories but Chokherbali themselves worked offline. On its anniversary they came out for real test, and what a test it was. They took bigmouth Madhu Kishwar head on, who did not disappointed anyone. In her polemical best she dared the whole house without mincing words to put the records straight. Another interesting part was absolute absence of Hindi Massabs from the dice. Anamika and Sukrita Paul Kumar are English teachers at University of Delhi  Rajkishore is Journalist while Madhu is well… well… well activists, feminist and journalist all rolled in one.

3.   satyam fraud

4.   satyam computers

5.  satyam news

6.  sebi

7.  ndtv profit

8.  ramalinga raju

9.  economic times

10.  satyam scam

On the other hand when I digg the aggregators I find that Hindi Blogosphere is still waiting for first post on the issue. How do we explain it? Digital divide I suppose. We are writing what they are not searching. Tough time.
