Introduction

Thaslima Nasrin, Salman Rashdi, Carl Marx who were chased out of their own country and had to find asylum somewhere else on planet earth, are examples of how a messanger is treated by the society, which is not open for opinions and views that are different from the mainstream. Galileo Galilei, Gauri Lankesh, Kalburgi etc. are examples of how an intellectual will be silenced forever, if there intellectual skills are against the believes of religious, economic and political bosses. And our society is not open for views and opinions, other than what they are conditioned or programmed to think, since their childhood. This makes it a narrow world, with narrow mindset, which allows only one way of thinking, when there is a great scope for improvement. Often a message happens to be a reason for rejoicement and celebration for a section of society, which will make the rest kill the messenger. A message for a social change will be a score settling show for the society, which will kill the messenger. If these are the challenges faced by an individual, who wants to write about socio-economic and political issues. Then the one who has gone through a lot of personal tragedies will hardly have anything to write. The reason is needless to explain; he or she cannot write anything about caste, creed, religion, race, politics and economy. He or she also cannot write a fiction which will have human emotions and human behaviors like happiness, sorrow, love, hatred, deceit and what not. And this is exactly what motivates me to scribble few lines every now and then. Hence, i have created this website to present my stories.
