..Being the first month of the year, January forces the freshness out of everyone. I am determined to shake off the lethargy and be true to the month. The steps are simple: make yourself a black coffee to override the hangover of 31st night, arm yourself with a pen (or a laptop for 21st century whizzies) and finally ramble on the resolutions for the coming year. Today, if you are not making resolutions for the year, chances are that you will be ostracized from the society for not being civilized.  As trend would have its final say, resolutions, thankfully, are now a passé. Hang on though! This is replaced by a more sophisticated and better spread out concept called “wish list”. I am proud to say that I too have my own list. Read through for more.

·         Mumbai roads to be free of all potholes which by the way has been claimed to be filled during the monsoon by a fictitious entity called BMC. I strongly feel that if such a miracle occurs, the BMC will be sued for causing damage to the city’s heritage.

·         All economists, politicians & free lance columnists to form a conclave which will decide whether India is actually insulated by the economic slowdown or not. I say this because of the innumerable articles, on this topic, that have been published with every other a contrast of the former.

·         Ajmal Amir Kasab be given a citizenship of Antartica as clearly Pakistan disowns him, India detests him and the rest of the world does not know him.

·         A non Khan actor takes the pole position as Bollywood’s best. Mr Bachchan , you are too elite to be considered in this list.

·         No new political party be formed such has ‘Konkan cha raja cha sena’. If it is formed despite all pleads, may it have a stronger agenda than forcing non-Konkanites out of Mumbai.

·         Nano be launched and this time on road and not just in the newspapers.

·         Petrol, diesel & other petroleum based products be reduced by 50% in their costs. You will soon find the members of OPEC working in a call centre for their daily bread.

·         I-phone and other smart phones to be available under similar scheme such as MHADA low cost housing. Only this way will a consumer start dreaming about buying one.

·         All low cost carriers to at least provide seat belts to passengers.

·         Finally, Indian cricket team becomes the no.1 in both forms of the game. No pun intended here.
