Morning, I woke up and it is a ritual made by me to check
the statistics of my blog and the traffic sources. What people are reading on
my blog and I expect that more than the old articles they are escalating my new
work. I saw something unusual today; few of the visitors checked out one my
three years old articles.
The article is about the recipe of beef stew. Well, I have
never cooked it, but it was composed for one of my foreign clients who had requested for
the recipe but later on did not like my work and rejected it. I don’t like my
work to go as a discarded, so I published the article on my blog. I again reiterate
my words, ‘I have never cooked the recipe’.

Now, you must be thinking why I am getting so apprehensive
about the beef recipe? Actually, I belong to a country where the burning issue
right now is ‘Beef eaters’. Calling themselves as the representative of one of
the creeds in this country, they believe that it is unethical, whereas there
are people irrespective of the religion like to have it (sorry, I am not aware
who these people are). There are activists who are tracing people related to
beef. According to some media reported, the ‘beef’ issue had also erupted in
some minor incidences of ferocity in different location of India. I was
watching news in which, localities killed a truck driver in disbelief that he
was exporting cow. The emphasize made is on ‘suspicion’. Later on it was
discovered that the ‘suspicion’ was baseless.

Sad, isn’t it? I hope my fear, my disquiet and drive not to
die for such reasons, must be visible to you and the administration of the
country. I may delete the post very soon because just a recipe may lead to settings
which I fear is not suitable for me. Yes, I agree with former cabinet minister
Arun Shourie, the situation in the country is a point of concern.
