2ND CTOBER,2009.

Exactly one year back this Blog was created. But there was no photograph. I went in search of my suitable snap and in the process lost the blog ! Queer? Foolish? Well, whatever you name it, it’s a fact.

Then, a lot of water flowed in the river Sabarmati (Ahmedabad, India) and in the river Whangnui (Auckland, NZ). Yes, one year passed. I shifted temporarily from Ahmedabad, India to Auckland New Zealand. From OVEN (40 Deg.C) to Deep fridge (4 DegC) !

Yesterday when I was surfing for some Gujarati Blog sites , suddenly I found my own Blog- VARTALAP !!! I was stunned.

It also happens to be 2nd October today. The birthday Of the great Mahatma Gandhi !

But I am upset.

Mr.Gandhi used “Strike” as weapon, or rather a tool against British reign and overthrew it.

Unfortunately, today, this same tool is misused. So far as the trade unions and political parties were misusing it for their short term goal it did not hurt me.

But when the teachers-GURUS of Art of Communication- used this tool, I was upset. Those who are aware of the Indian scenario will understand this. How can teachers of IIMs- Masters of art of Negotiations – can resort to Strike??!

Is this what they are going to teach future Managers ? Would Mr.M.K.Gandhi have approve it ?
