Anaap Shnaap
A page to share random musings... an odd butterfly fluttering around.. a rare bloom to talk about... my next trip to plan... and yes, the new maid has joined! A page belonging to an author, a traveller, a compulsive decision maker of late... do keep dropping in to catch up on some gupp-shupp with me and do be prepared to put up with some anaap-shnaap rantings too :D

Nobel Peace Prize and all that rummy.........moans KJS Chatrath ;
I lost all hope and respect for the Nobel Peace Committee the day our own Mr. Kailash Satyarthi was awarded half Nobel Peace Prize.
No, no, you misunderstand me. I am not ruing that he got only half and not full prize. In my view he did not deserve even half!

News that has shattered me.....shares K J S Chatrath
This recent news has shattered meš”...and no it is not about increase in tariff on Indian imports by the USA. Let me explain.
I am a self professed lover of samosas. I rate them as one of the tastiest and enjoyable snacks. But the the following news has shattered me. The Tribune, Chandigarh, July 15, 2025.I would plead that my free choice to enjoy samosas be left untouched. I have been enjoying samosas at least for the last 50 years and my weight has been steady at 67 kgs.
I am 82+ and my time left on planet earth is reducing by the day. Please let me enjoy my pleasure of samosas for my remaining days.............pleaseš.

My response to heightened tariff's by USA.................KJS Chatrath
Like every Indian I too am appalled at the USA imposing very high tariffs on Indian goods. But what say do I, an old 82+ person, have ?
I have decided to vent my anger by boycotting an American product, Coca Cola and all its products.
Last time I had boycotted Coca Cola was when USA had imposed sanctions on India after the atomic test and my boycott of Coke had lasted for over a decade.
For us in India, it is always INDIA FIRST!
