Selling Cameras In The Times Of Terrorism!

For some time now, in India, the ONLY thing one can do to save oneself from a very possible terrorist attack & destruction seems to be ‘BUYING A CAMERA’! Not just any camera, but, the CCTV one! In India, the CCTV Cam has become the in thing & the NEED!

At the fag end of December 2014, Church Street, in the central business district of  Bangalore, reverberated with the explosion of a tiny bomb, which was placed ‘cunningly’ near the pavement, near to a retro bar. The ‘efficient police teams’ reached the spot more than 30 minutes after the explosion & after a couple of hours, cordoned off the area, to PROTECT whatever ‘CLUE’ that is left!  

The police, immediately (Which means, after a day or two!) started to verify whether the CCTV Cams installed by the private firms dotting the area are working or not that they could collect some clues from them! To their SHOCK they found out that the camera @ the explosion spot, installed by the retro bar, was not functional! Their SHOCK was when most of the government installed CCTV cams are dying a DYSFUNTIONAL DEATH (DD!) @ various places in Bangalore, for at the least, more than a year!

One is FORCED to assume that it is the non functional PRIVATELY installed CCTV cams which are the real reasons behind the terrorist attack which took place @ Church Street, taking away a precious human life & all the PUBLICLY installed non functional CCTV cams are nothing but innocent in this matter! As it is the ‘PRIVATELY’ installed non functional cams which are the major & minor culprits, instigating the terrorists to install a ‘PRIVATELY’ designed crude bomb (May be ‘Out Sourced’, as is the fashion in the private domain!) near a ‘PRIVATLEY’ owned retro bar!  

A couple of days after the Church Street attack, the efficient police force of Bangalore gave strict directions  & orders to all the ‘PRIVATELY’ owned entities to install CCTV cameras in & around their establishments, while the ‘PUBLICLY’ put non functional CCTV cams & the public bodies which put these non functional CCTV cams there were allowed to wear a sad & swollen face, indicating the ‘supposed’ pains these non functional CCTV cams & their PUBLIC Installer Bodies suffer, due to the non functional PRIVATELY put cameras!

It is a terrorising fact that more than 800 crores have been spent to ‘camerafy’ Mumbai in the recent years; for Mumbai ‘camerafication’ is still going on is another interesting fact, spending crores! Of course, selling CCTV cams  is a BIG business, worth billions & Interested Parties (Ips!) are playing games with the Indian Public, publicly! And, who takes what , how much & why are ALWAYS unknown!

For Obama ‘HOW MUCH’ Delhi spent (Of course, for security reasons!) is anybody’ guess! Hundreds of crores SHOULD have changed hands, for sure! Obama came, made hundreds of crore worth CCTV cameras installed & went back with the ‘PRESUMED THREAT’ avoided! The thanks SHOULD go to the hundreds of crores worth installed CCTV cams as JUST by their installation India has avoided any major terrorist attack or something alike, smartly!

Various ‘scientific studies’ have ‘found out’ & declared, in volumes (Always, ‘ONLY’ in the international science forums!), about the major breakthrough & improvement in the ground situation in the war torn Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq etc, as far as terrorism is concerned, after the installation of HUGE number of CCTV cameras on every sand dune & tree top!  Hence, CCTV cams are going to be installed, large scale, in all the railway stations, bus stands, cars, buses, on bikes & bicycles, on police persons, government officials, non government officials, thieves, CIDs, common man, rickshaw pullers of Calcutta, balloon sellers @ the hundreds of cultural festivals of India & others living inside the Indian boarders, in the fight against global terrorism!

To achieve this ambitious aim, HUGE amounts of bank loan to buy CCTV cameras are going to be given with the maximum liberalised schemes, with flexible & other sort of interest rates! Reputed institutions like the World Bank, Asian Development Bank, RBI, SBI, CBI etc are queuing up at the door steps of the customers to attract the CCTV cam buyer with their various attractive SCHEMES to purchase High Quality CCTV cams (Which are ‘ONLY’ available in the developed countries!) from abroad!    

CCTV cam on every street light post by 2020 is going to be declared the main aim of the government, throwing the age old & out dated “Garibi Hatao” by an outdated political philosophy out & welcoming in the new gen “CCTV Cam Apnavo, Aathangavaadh Mittavo”! Government is planning (Without the help of a nonexistent Planning Commission!) to FORCEFULLY implement  ‘A CCTV Cam For Every Person in India’ (CCTVCEPI!), dead or alive, programme by 2025! It is even rumoured that the Prime Minister is planning a CCTV Cam Dhan Yojana (PMCCTVCDY!) that every unaccounted & insignificant subject of his country get the oxygen like benefit of a CCTV cam! And, the listless & ununited opposition  is eagerly waiting for a CCTV Cam Scam (CCTVCS!) to better their already battered prospects!  

Various Think Tanks & NGOs in India, which are ‘NOT’ receiving any ‘FUNDS’ from abroad are seriously planning the implementation of a CCTV Cam on every moving creature by 2155 or 2222 AD! And, it has come as a MAJOR BOOST for the Indian technology sector that the developed countries have obliged to hand over to India the Quality CCTV Camera making technologies by 3000 AD! And, reliable sources which don’t wish to be identified have disclosed that, till then, the cams will be imported directly from the west or assembled in India after importing the cams in parts from the west!

The common talk that the 2011 Mumbai terrorist attack which claimed 176 precious human lives could not be prevented despite enough CCTV cams being present in Mumbai, the Bangalore ATM attacker remains @ large despite being caught in the CCTV, various jewelleries, all over India, get looted despite their CCTV cams being in the working conditions etc SHOULD HAVE TO BE considered pure gossip & SHOULD BE dismissed out rightly as heresy and the fashionable Portuguese Inquisition reinstalled to ‘TRY & FRY’ the heresy mongers!     

As SHOULD BE dismissed the utterly disappointing point of view that the terrorist attacks & Maoist attacks conducted systematically in various parts of the country is to ‘promote’ the awareness of the importance of CCTV Cams in one’s life & the price one has to pay if one fails to have , at the least, a basic CCTV Cam on the person!

It is to be CERTAINLY assumed that there weren’t enough CCTV cams installed in Paris to deter the terrorists from attacking the French magazine office & World Trade Centre bombing was due to insufficient number of CCTV cams installed & arranged on the Twin Towers!

We SHOULD promote voyeurism as the National Pastime that will help the already down west to recuperate from the desperate self created market conditions they are in, for some time now, as the valueless Indian rupee & Indians –‘Compared’ to the western currencies & men!!! - can & will buy enough Quality CCTV cams from the west to involve themselves in the National Pastime & for the fool proof protection from terrorists, Maoists, thieves, anti social elements etc!

Let’s promote the ‘Orwellian’ watching maniacs & states and promote a culture where all the people understand the ideas like voyeurism, voyeur, CCTV cam, terrorism protection, terror proof technologies etc from the day one of their entry into the CCTV Camerafied India! Let’s make it a fashion statement (‘Fashion Statement is ‘Never’ A Need!’ SHOULD BE dismissed immediately!) to have, at the least, a couple of CCTV Cams in front of your house signaling you are a significant & smart one & ‘NOT’ like the dumb & too insignificant one on the other side of the fence etc, despite the fact the CCTV cams are working or not!   

Let’s install, as a nation, CCTV cams in our living room, dining room, bed room, bathroom, toilets etc & stream it live 24/7 that we BE protected from any ‘prospective’ terrorist & Maoist attack! And, let us work for a nation where everyone move around with, at the least, a CCTV cam fitted on his or her person that bombs stop exploding, terrorists & Maoists stop attacking and people continue living well beyond a couple of centuries!

Let all the Indians & all those who come to India (To measure the standard of Indians ‘living’ & other things!) understand the importance we  – The Newly Modernised Indians -  give to CCTV cams WHEN there are millions who silently cry for their own sub standard, petty & ‘not worth mentioning’ Roti, Kapada, Makaan! Let these insignificant millions while away time & forget the reality of their insignificant lives playing with the millions of non functional CCTV cams, thrown away by the ‘living’ Indians!

We Got To Stand Together!

When the terrorists struck Bombay he was not aware of that; he was thinking about the Hartal which was going to be celebrated
in his God's Own Country! He was thinking about the chances of another couple of Hartals, the National Festival of the Keralites!
But, when he got the newspaper next morning, he new some terrorists had holed up in some hotels in Bombay and they had killed
more than 100 people and injured more than 300 people.

He eagerly devoured what was written about the terrorists and sighed heavily reading there were no Malayalee Casualties,
which was specified by the local daily. He read about the boat which came from the Porbunder Harbour, Hotel Taj, Oberoi,
CRT, Nariman House(with no mention about why Nariman House got attacked, as somebody wanted to cover the reason
behind the attack on it) and some other places. He re read to confirm that there were no Malayalee casualties; he had been
doing this 'Confirmation' ever since Iraq invaded Quwait, when the local dailies faught with one another to 'Inform' people that
there were no Malayalee casualties! In those days, he even thought how accurately Iraquees make the Malayalees move away
from the places they were going to bomb, and how concerned the Iraquees were about the Malayalees; at the least it seemed so,
by the reportage of the Malayalam Dailies, which regularly competed to Inform that there were No Malayalee Casualties, day in and day out!

The next day he read the newspaper to find out that there were Malayalee casualties. Someone died in Taj hotel in the massacre
was a Malayalee, from another district. He thought, "There are no casualties from Our District"; and read on the gruesome methods
adapted by the terrorists, in the killing of the hapless and innocent victims. When he read The NewYork Times he understood that
the persons (If they can be called persons at all) who did this heinous act were an "Audacious Group of Gunmen" and they were just "Militants fighting for the disputed land of Kashmir". He failed to understand why, when the terror strikes America it is Terrorism and when the same happens in India it becomes Militancy and the cold blooded terrorists become "A Group of Audacious Gunmen"!

The very next day the newspaper informed him that one of the Malayalees died in the Bombay Terror Attack was from his own district; he read about the unlucky fellow's life history and about his family; he thought no one from His Own Village was there......A thought of relief passed through his mind......He continued to read that India had been listed in the top 20 dangerous places to visit by 'One of the Most Intelligent and Sane U.K news papers'; he failed to recollect wheather this same Sane Newspaper listed America,when it had its own 9/11 and U.K, when the Irish Terror reigned Briton in the seventies and eighties, among the top twenty dangerous places to visit.

When the next day arrived, the newspaper informed that there was another Malayalee in the casualty list and he was from His Own Village;he was almost shocked to read the familiar name of the man from his village; he remembered some of those incidents of past where the martyred man was involved and a couple of occasions when he met him, in person; but he had a relieving thought that none of His Own Family Memebers had become a casualty and No Relative has been lost in the act of terror....

What he and all the people who read newspapers and gathered pieces of information, from each and every nook and corner of India,
who sighed with relief as they learned no one of their close relatives or family members were casualties of the Bombay terror attack,forget is each and every innocent person killed by those heartless terrorists are "Somebody Else' Close Relative or Someone Else' Family Member" and more than 150 precious and very much loved lives had been extinguished in a reckless act of terror.It is time each and every Indian stand, in every sense, very close to the bereaved families, who had lost what each of those families had considered the dearest in their lives. It is time, we all Indians think and act in the best interest of the Nation and become the boundless oceans of empathy towards those who had lost what they had cherished and loved best in thier lives! Let us all keep the memories of all those precious lives lost in the heinous act of terrorism, in our hearts, and stand above all the cast and creed and politics and be the brothers and sisters to those families who are deep in the oceans of grief.......Let Us Be The True Indians......Once & For All...!
