Howdy Modi - Uniting Indian Diaspora


As a NRI living in US, I used to various associations like Gujarathi, Tamil, Telugu, Telangana associations etc., But when India was bad mouthed in Western press after Article 370 removal on behalf of Muslim brotherhood, felt like need of United Indian voice. While Pakistani officials spread rumors in Twitter, they kept debunked by various fact finding organizations. But voice isnt enough to make it to main stream media.

On the other hand, India as a nation is so diversified , that each state has its own culture, norms, cousins. Traditionally these differences kept Indians abroad apart coming under one umbrella. Since there is no external uniting force, looks like Modi has taken it upon himself to bring all onto one platform.


As per 2015 estimates, around 1.5Million are Indian Americans with voting rights. Refer https://aapidata.github.io/quick_stats/national_data.html
and another 300K are pending with approved green card petitions.
While these folks are staring at decades long waiting period, Legislation in progress to remove the bottlenecks and address this unrealistic wait times.
Hope the show of strength, will represent as one unifying force, resulting as addressing their concerns.



Crowd turnout

 50,000 turn out in Houston, Texas is nothing compared to 4.5 Million (2017 estimate refer :https://factfinder.census.gov/faces/tableservices/jsf/pages/productview.xhtml?pid=ACS_17_1YR_B02018&prodType=table ) Indian American living in USA.

 

Media Coverage




 

PMs Message / Take aways:

 










US Political impact



























Burn-oil moments for PAK




















Last but not least, Anti India forces painting India as a Hindu Republic and instigating Muslims. This need to be fixed.

Why Chiru?

I don't want to say Chiru will do wonders. But he is not mastered in looting the people like others. He is not an experienced Politician .Its a great Qualification. One of my friend raised an objection here saying that " being in-experienced politican how its going to be a great qualification and do you thinking that all current politicans are bad" i am accepting his comments and removing a few words from my article.... He is a new comer into this field, so by the time he learns how to do all these things, it will take some time. As a fresher, he will may try to do some thing good for till he get defeated. By the track record of Chiru, i don't think, he will get defeated. Just because he became No.1 in a field which similarly ruled on the base of caste. But he conquered it not just with Charishma and acting. He know how to win. Another comment is how chiru's past track record in Movie field will guarentee success in completely different "Political field...

Investing in Gold

Like many, I keep hearing about looming recession and Gold as a hedge. But how exactly gold is going to help me and if yes, how to invest is something running behind my mind.  So here is my work on it and hope it helps you too. Why Invest in Gold ?  Fiat currency we are holding is loosing its value at the rate of inflation. But before fiat currency, gold is the standard. Based on current technology, its difficult to extract gold. so in the demand vs supply equation, supply cant balloon like central banks printing money at their will. so i dont need to worry about Gold loosing its value over time. On Supply part, As per World Gold Council estimate 190,040 metric tones extracted and another 54000 metric can be extracted from ground. Refer :  https://www.gold.org/about-gold/gold-supply/gold-mining/how-much-gold On the Demand part, Below are the key drivers of Gold demand Source: Thomson Reuters GFMS, World Gold Council As an investment, From individu...

Manual to living a Human Life - How to poop properly

Years ago, I had a question "is there a manual explaining how to use my (Human) body? " Pursuit of this question send me in different directions. In this post, I will talk about "How to poop properly?" what is the right way ? Before get into it, Why now ? My daughter going through potty training. She naturally prefers Indian style full squat. This initially puzzled me as she newer knew about this way and also this is against what she is seeing / observing in Potty training videos and what is being taught at school. Being born in India, crouching is the way for us. Now being in western world, forcing my daughter against her natural will, makes me feel guilt. So i started searching about what is the right thing to do. Came across  Dov Sikirov who researched on Human Digestive diseases. In his 2013 article (refer  https://link.springer.com/article/10.1023/A:1024180319005 ) he studied straining forces applied when sitting or squatting dur...
