Just one week of no blogging and the news is filled with articles each one deserving discussion . Where to start ...
Ok first the arrest of the indian senior diplomat in USA by US authorities and the diplomatic row it created .

From ancient times even in barbaric nations there was one category which was exempted from mistreatment . They were the messengers or messenger equivalents sent from one country to another . In modern times there are civilised agreements between nations called "diplomatic immunity " . The case in question is not waiving of the criminal proceedings against the accused but proper conduct is followed when arresting diplomats . The same country where our cultural ambassador Shahrukh khan was humiliated at the border sometime back no more further comments on this issue . USA should not lead by example as it wants to be but at least let it not flaunt laws as per its convenience .
Next about recent supreme court judgement on gay rights .

Though its a controversial "moral" issue as some people find the concept of gay sex repulsive many of the recent verdicts (excepting this one ) and public opinions even in social forums and in the news are more logical . Most of the issues moral or not belongs to one category ... whether the individuals freedom is allowed . Soceity and most of the laws are there to prevent infringement of individual rights by another person .. Stealing , rape , murder being examples .. But recently it is good that the concept of fundamental rights are discussed on a large scale on social forums and even in a conservative country like india amendments or at least amendments of the older laws are in the pipeline ( Many of our laws were made by the british ) . Culturally and socially the number of social leaders like Raja Ram Mohan Roy or Swami Vivekananda we had no dearth and i am sure the country will amend some of the laws soon ..There was even a recent judgement on live -in relationships by supreme court . (again a question of individual freedom of choice .. the judgement was positive ) .
Lastly on divorce .. Hrithik Roshan and his wife of more than 17 years are heading towards divorce according to the news . The usual suspects of divorce but whats charming is the statements given by Hrithik in the press . Dignified way of dealing with it ..The same was observed when John Abraham and Bipasha split some time back . I only heard his interview but still very dignified way of dealing with the split . Splitting is always painful and the "blame game " is human . But dealing with your loved one (if ever you loved ) even in times of split tells a lot about you rather than the loved one ...Anyways i hope it ends well whatever decision they take ..
Any more news ? No more news .. Times up :) Comments please
