929 What are these birth days at 2 a.m., and when do our Media Houses learn lessons? Will these bourgeoisie habits end only with Total Socialism?

What are these birth-days which are celebrated at 2 a.m., the time at which all the creatures except nocturnal wild animals, are supposed to be in deep slumber! Ms. Alia Bhat, Bollywood Star was said to be celebrating her birthday, at Juhu, Mumbai. As if day time and evenings are not sufficient for parties, this diva arranged a birth day party at 2 a.m. And Media Houses drive their poor photographers to star-homes, to capture photos, as if daytime is not sufficient to hound both the photographers and the stars. And a said-to-be newbie photographer, named Mr. Deepak Hooda rushes in the crowd of other running photographers along and across the car of Mr. Shah Rukh Khan, and gets his foot trampled by the star's car. The star might have remembered the travails of Mr. Salman Khan who was involved in a car accident case stretching into several years, might have promptly woken up to the consequences, and to mollify/pacify/smoothen the severity of the incident, sent the injured photographer along with the star's body guard to Nanavati Hospital, and get him treated by his personal doctor.

Here is a news report which narrates the gentleness and kindness of Mr. Shah Rukh Khan:

“I am not a surgery junkie. I have had nine or ten. I have just had one. I still have to take my stitches off.” “...You spend as much time on the road as I do. Do regular checkups. All of you are running around…day before yesterday one boy…please be careful in front of cars. ...”

ybdonkey's views with no malice to anyone

So, let'us all be careful in front of cars. Stars need not be careful, while driving the cars. Mr. Khan might have adequately compensated not only the injured photographer, but also other photographers in the crowd to dilute the incident. Sehbas, Media, and the photographers.

Who these Media owners, and Media Editors, are driving the photographers and scribes to fall under the front wheels of star cars? That too at 2 a.m.? Can't this news item be collected next morning and reported with reasonable promptness?

We cannot strictly blame photographers in these episodes. This is because, photographers may lose their jobs and their livelihood, if they refuse to chase star cars. It is hightime, Media scribes and photographers form proper Trade Unions, work out a Code of Conduct and Ethics, and voluntarily abide by it. It is not that they do not have Trade Unions today, but somehow, they seem to be ineffective, where their role is direly needed.

It is also a punishment for Shah Rukh Khan's body guard, named Ravi, who had to work at night 2 a.m., and whose working hours might have been prolonged, as he has had to wait on the injured photographer in the hospital.

Is the gesture of Shri Shah Rukh Khan, a NOBLE GESTURE?

Ans: Difficult to say. A reader wrote in Letters to Editor of DeccanChronicle.Com, Vijayavada Edition, print edition dated 20.3.2017:

NOBLE GESTURE
"...Shah Rukh Khan's gesture towards a photographer who was injured by his car was remarkable. Nowadays hit and run is common. But SRK got down, and asked the man to sit in his car..."
Shri S.A. Nabi, Giddalur (letter writer).

ybrao-a-donkey's view:

Film stars may be experts in hit and run. But, the point at which accident took place is not suitable for a hit-and-run feat. Reasons: Ahead of Shah Rukh's car is the venue of Ms. Alia Bhat's Party. There may be some portico. There may be cars parked in front of the portico. Going ahead with top speed for an 'escape' is not possible. Reversing the car may also not be so easy, because there may be a compound wall, some garden plants, behind. There may be cars of more invitees behind on the pathway, who might have come with equal speed and halted behind his car.

Salman Khan, and Ambani instances

As far as I can remember, Mr. Salman Khan's two decade old hit-and-run accident case is different from that Shah Rukh Khan, in that, Salman's accident took place in a Mumbai Street at midnight when traffic was not much, and escape was possible. Readers can also remember a few years' old, one hit and run case of Ambani Son. In both the cases, drivers came out later, taking out the responsibility for the accident, and trying to relieve their masters from criminal liabilities.

Had the star not shown some empathy and compassion at that moment,

and left the place recklessly, there might have been a police complaint, and he would have been forced to go around police stations, advocates' offices, and courts, and even those things might have cost him a million bucks, apart from his missing some shootings. Thus, some common sense, some sixth sense, some prudence gained from experience, may have forced Shri Shah Rukh Khan to show some small mercies.

However, I do not wish to throw the entire blame on Shah Rukh Khan, as he is being chased.

My only feeling is he should have slowed down and applied his brakes, to prevent mishaps. By stopping a few minutes exposing himself to photographers, he would not have lost much. What he would have done inside the birthday pary? Eating and boozing? The blame should fall on the Media Houses and Media Bureau Chiefs who must have been exerting undue pressure on the photographers and scribes.

Ordinarily, we should not expect our bourgeoisie to show compassion and empathy.

It is against their very character. There is a Telugu verse of Vemana:

goDDu TAvu pituka kunDa kompOyina
panDla nUDa tannu pAla niDadu
lObhi vAni naDuga lAbhambu lEdayA
viSvadAbhi rAma vinura vEma

English gist, approx.: If we take a pot to a barren cow to milk it, it will not yield any milk. Instead, it will kick our teeth out. There is no use of asking misers.

How to prevent these unnecessary disdainful chores during nights in True Total Socialism?

Anyway, we can hope, in a totally and truly Socialist State, these bourgeoisie behaviors can be eliminated. Proletariat (Working Class) may have to decide what type of Film Industry they should have in a Truly Socialist country.

792 (Part 1) Will the 21st Century Ashoka save the people of Residual Andhra Pradesh, from his own Associates?

Here is an allegation of Guntur Lok Sabha member Mr. Galla Jayadev trying to take away a prime house worth about Rs. 90 million for Rs. 39 million. Mr. Jayadev has denied it, stating that e participated in an auction conducted by Andhra Bank, and that he had emerged as the highest bidder while taking care to follow all norms. According to him the entire transaction was above board. He described Ms Padmaja’s accusation as baseless and politically motivated. For our readers who wish to read the relative report, here is a DeccanChronicle.Com link: Click here to read DeccanChronicle.Com dated 23.07.2016. . Sincere thanks to DC for reporting both sides of the story.

Story from the side of Ms. Guntupalli Padmaja, Complainant, and owner of the house taken on lease by Shri Jayadev, our beloved People's Representative to this country's Highest House of Legislature:

The House taken on rent by Shri Jayadev is located at Brindavan Gardens, Guntur. Ms. Padmaja in her interactions with Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu informed that she had taken Rs2.30 crores loan from Andhra Bank on her three storeyed house as security in 2013.

She added Galla Jayadev in 2014 elections had taken her house for rent and later continued to use the building as his residence-cum-office. She added she failed to pay EMIs due to her financial condition. She accused Jayadev of pressurising the bank to put the building for auction to recover its loan as the EMI were not paid. She further alleged that Mr Jayadev pressurised the bank officials to set the base auction price at a mere Rs 2.80 crore against the government value of Rs 7.50 crore. She said when she approached the Debt Recovery Tribunal seeking time to clear the loan, the DRT directed Andhra Bank to give time but the bank officials, on orders from Mr Jayadev, proceeded with the auction, facilitating the MP to buy the house for a mere Rs 3.09 crore. Galla Jayadev says he participated in the auction and emerged the highest bidder in due process.

This news item was reported by several websites. But, apparently, this news of the suffering house-owner approaching Mr. Nara Chandra Babu Naidu seeking (ethical) justice, seems to have been ignored by the top two Telugu newspapers and channels of Residual Andhra Pradesh. Even a Telugu Newspaper-and-TV Channel which claims to be "dammunna" (brave, courageous, and daring) seems to have ignored it.

Strangely enough, after few days a counter-allegation appeared in a Leading Telugu Newspaper, released by -said-to-be- reprsentatives of Spinning Mills.

Approximate English: M.P. Jayadev bought the house lawfully.
A flagpost by members of Spinning Mills Association.
Guntur, Sangadigunta. President Dharmateja of Spinning Mills Association, said that M.P., Shri Galla Jayadev purchased the house in which he is staying, lawfully in E-Auction. He, speaking in a Press Meet organised in the Association Office on Saturday, said that a sum of Rs. 3.09 crore was quoted when the house came for auction, and that the Bank entrusted the house to the highest quoting bidder Jayadev. Association Member, Shri Samineni Koteswara Rao, speaking: "Guntupalli Kotgeswara Rao was submerged in debts three years back itself. Including me, many industrialists, doctors, lost cheated in his hands, more than Rs. 20 crore (Rs. 200 million). He has indulged in cheating, by saying that Capital was going to come at Nuzividu, that he was buying lands, created fake agreements and documents."

Another member, Shri Narendra speaking: 'During (2014) election time, when I was approached with a request to convince (Mr. Jayadev) to take that house on rent, I along with another person, convinced Shri Jayadev to take the house on rent. When Sri Srinivasa Rao was asked why he was eager that the house is taken on hire by Shri Jayadev, he (Shri Srinivasa Rao) said that if he (Shri Jayadev) stays in his house, Banks will not press for repayment of loan. Also said that, Shri Jayadev may consider it as a sentiment, and buy the house for a big price. Also said that, in the past Shri Srinivasa Rao's wife filed a kidnap case, and as there was no evidence, police had dissuaded her and sent her back without registering a case. (Those who spoke at the Press Meet) advised that at least now, making allegations against MP should be stopped. They also said that, in fact, many persons have to register cheating cases against Shri Srinivasa Rao.

ybrao-a-donkey's humble comments. वैबीराव एक गधे के विनम्र राय . వైబీరావ్ గాడిద వినమ్ర వాణి. You have every right to differ with me. I respect your right. आपको मेरे मत से भिन्न राय रखने के संपूर्ण हक है। मै उस अधिकार को परिपूर्ण रूप से गौरव देता हुँ. మీకు, మీ భిన్నమైన అభిప్రాయాన్ని కలిగిఉండే సంపూర్ణ హక్కు ఉంది. దానిని ఎంతో నేను గౌరవిస్తాను. However, pl. examine this donkey's views also. परन्तु एस गधे के दृष्टिकोण को भी अनुशीलन कीजिये. కానీ ఈ గాడిద దృష్టికోణాన్ని కూడ ఓర చూపుతో కంటజూడుమీ, క్రీగంట జూడమీ.

This type of affairs and incidents, we see not only in Guntur of Andhra Pradesh, not only in many cities of India, but also in Europe, North America, and ANZ.

The approximate 700 billion people on this Earth are accustomed to this type of intra-bourgeoisie skirmishes and squabbles. Behaviors of the land-lords, land-ladies, Banks both Private Sector and Public Sector, Media both Press and Electronic, Political Parties and People's Representatives, everything under this sky are governed, modified and shaped by bourgeoisie cultural and customary practices.

This particular affair-case-incident raises nearly 100 questions ethical-banking and financial - legal-political-social all of which we may not be able to discuss in one blog post. Some of these questions need deeper analyses and discussions, in the interest of this Nation.

People of Residual Andhra Pradesh, who have sold their votes for Rs. 1,500/- or liquor bottles or sarees have to wake up. They will not get this opportunity till 2019.

Today, similar opportunities are open for the voters of our so-called friend-philosopher-guide Nation, the United States of America.

To continue. सशेष. ఇంకా ఉంది.
