जाने क्या होगा

शाम धुआं धुआं है
रात भीगी भीगी सी है
सुबह का अंजाम
जाने क्या होगा !

साँसों में घुटन है
धड़कनो में है डर
दिल का मेरे हाल
जाने क्या होगा !

किस कदर बेकरारी है
आँखों में नमी और दिल भारी है
इन आहों का असर
जाने क्या होगा !

रंगीनियों में स्याही है
आबादियों में है वीरानी
सुलझे ख्यालों का सबब
जाने क्या होगा !

ख्यालों में मिलते हैं
बदन में हैं फासले
मिलन और जुदाई का फर्क
जाने क्या होगा !

 शाम धुआं धुआं है
रात भीगी भीगी सी है
सांस रही गर तो
सुबह रौशनी का खज़ाना होगा !!

OROP: A DROP IN THE OCEAN 1.  Last few days have seen some unprecedented actions, reactions and lack of action regarding "demand" of OROP by veterans of Indian Armed Forces. Debates on audio and visual media, messages on social media and heated arguments over a glass of beer in messes / clubs have focused on how successive Govts have failed to fulfill long standing demand of OROP, how the wily bureaucrats are putting spokes in its implementation, the base year for calculations and the estimates of budgetary allocations and cash outgo for the treasury.

बीता वक़्त

इंतज़ार का दायरा दरवाज़े से गली के मोड़ तक  बेकरारी की इन्तहा तेज़ साँसों से आँखों की नमी तक  मोहब्बत का इज़हार मेरी नज़रों से उसके दिल तक  उसकी हया सुर्ख गालों से होते हुए हसीं लबों तक  झुक कर तस्लीम उसके अंदाज़े बयां से हम तक  जवान हुए हमें एक ज़माना बीत गया !

Her Body and My Soul have been Raped

My thoughts on recent spurt in reported rape cases:- (A) Rape is one of the most loathful crime much more than murder. It has been happening all through history though there is a definite increase in number of cases and brutality of act even after discounting hype created by constant media coverage and increased reporting by victims which wasn't the case earlier. (B) Why does rape take place? - I s it because perperator of the crime is devoid of sex - not correct as married / well to do persons who have access to normal / paid sex are also involved. - Is it because the victim is seductively dressed - not correct as girls in "decent clothes" have also been victims (dress has nothing to do with it anyway). - Is it because of frustration in the mind of perperator of crime - possibly due to cultural, financial or educational shortcomings due to imbalance in the society. - Is it because he is mentally sick - not necessary though some of them are actually m...
