A Tribute To Respected Shri Shri Kapil Sibal Ji

A Tribute To Respected Shri Shri Kapil Sibal Ji

A tribute to the upholder of communal harmony and decency in the Indian society, respected Shri Shri Kapil Sibal Ji.

Yikes! I am sick and tired of the continuous tirade against Shri Kapil Sibal Ji.

Please stop calling him idiot, stupid, moron, senile, loony, etc. Why are all of you 

hell bent on flushing away our culture and civilization, tehzeeb and tameez, 

down the chronically clogged drains?

Sibal Ji is an elderly person. We should respect and 

obey him as an elder, however idiot, stupid, moron, 

senile, loony, ignorant, fool, sycophant, or regressive 

he might be.

On the other hand, internet activities of Indians below 

the age of 60 years need to be supervised and monitored. 

Sibal Ji was right in asking the representatives of

Microsoft, Google and Facebook to prescreen content

originating in India, which might insult or offend other 

Indians. These companies are now acting like irresponsible arbiters.

It makes me mad to think why these companies have

made empires for themselves in our country when they 

cannot comply with our traditions.

What freedom of speech are these companies and the 

internet abusers talking about? It is totally an 

un-Indian concept. In our culture, it is despicable to 

open our mouths in front of our elders. The head of the 

family makes decisions for everyone, not just for the underage children, but for 

everyone  including the wife, adult children, married sons, daughters-in-law, 

and grand children.

In our own ingenious way, the responsibility to monitor the internet activities of 

members of each family should be given to the head of that family. These 60+ cyber 

police—however idiot, moron, senile, ignorant, fool, or regressive they might be—

should have the carte blanche to approve the content uploaded by the younger 

generations.

Youngsters these days have gone berserk, posting degrading, demeaning, vulgar, 

obscene, and abusive content on Facebook by which "any normal human being 

would be offended,” borrowing heavily from Sibal Ji.

We should strictly, “Ignore them.”

I know offensive pictures and links often appear on my newsfeed."

At this point I remember someone scolded me for making such friends, for engaging

in lengthy conversations with trolls, and for visiting offensive websites. “On the

internet, there is trash and there is class. You have to choose what you want to see 

or read.

His argument provided me with a great idea. If implemented, this extraordinary 

measure can solve Sibal Ji’s problems forever. His sensibilities will remain intact 

and people will stop calling him idiot, stupid, moron, senile, loony, etc.

The idea is—drum beats, please—the idea is to ask Microsoft, Google, Facebook, 

Twitter, etc. to block all access to respected Shri Kapil Sibal Ji and his cronies.

In case, the companies refuse to entertain this request, the only other option left 

for Sibal Ji and the UPA government would be to carry out their responsibilities 

sincerely and provide good governance so that the amount of accolades for them

outweighs the derogatory content.
