<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Harvinder Singh, the young and furious Sikh sprung his name
to fame with just one ‘slap’. Years ago, when he watched T.V, he would not have
even dreamt of so many channels showcasing his picture all at the same time.
But, all this is happening not for the best of reasons.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sharad Pawar, the NCP stalwart and almost a regular member
of the Parliament for years now, was slapped right on his cheek by this young
Sikh who was piqued enough by the ever-rising prices of essential edible
commodities and the puny counter-measures taken by the Agricultural Ministry to
curtail inflation and provide adequate food security.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">However, the bigger story to ponder upon is – Are we Indians
losing their cool or has our patience been tested enough?</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The ‘Slap-stick’ theory and shoe-hurling stories are not new
to Indian newspapers and visual media. It is probably good news for these
channels and papers as such stories give an instant burst to TRPs. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There is no doubt that there are a few <a href="http://technorati.com/politics/article/now-a-granddad-in-indian-jails/">corrupt</a> politicians
out there, who mind more about grabbing lands for hapless farmers, adding a new
BMW or Merc to their convoy, building a new lavish bungalow or starting a new
college too! Where do they have the time think about how to bring the prices of
onions and rice down to a level which is affordable for the common man?</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The outrage and
vexation is totally justified but, is this THE best way we Indians can fight
against them?</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We come from the land of Gandhi, the man who thought the
world that a battle can be won, without any weapon, except for the weapon of non-violence. <a href="http://www.indiaagainstcorruption.org/index1.html">Anna Hazare</a>, for instance
made the government sweat with his fast. Yes, there is a small ray of hope for
betterment and let us all believe that <b>a change will come</b>. </span><br />

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">My first day of work with Indian Peppers is finally a
reality, thanks to my intense desire to give a voice to my views which could in
general reflect the ideologies of most of the Indians out there.
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">The greatest strength and weakness of every Indian has
been to exercise the power of <em>IGNORANCE</em>. Be it a case of an accident
victim on the road, or be it any issue that does not concern or have an impact
on us on a personal basis; we just give a ‘DAMN’ about it. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">This is the reason why India is still the ‘India of
today’. </span></div>
<ul>
<li>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">A little more religious integration amongst the various
sects could have saved 2000 precious lives in the Babri Masjid Demolition,
scores of lives in the 2002 Godhra riots. </span></div>
</li>

</div>
<li>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">A little more stringent law on corruption could’ve made
India a golden country today.</span></div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">A little more importance if offered to sports and
investment in allied infrastructure could’ve made India stand above China in the
medals tally in the Olympics.</span></div>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">A sneak-peak in the past reveals the striking difference
between where we are and where we could have been. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">However, BETTER LATE THAN NEVER IS NOT JUST A SAYING. It
is something written just for us to learn, realize and awaken. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">Chetan Bhagat has released his ‘<em>Revolution
2020’</em>.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">What about you and me?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;"><strong><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">WELCOME TO INDIAN
PEPPERS</span></strong>. Realize, Speak out, Awaken!</span><br />
