The above anecdote from Holy Bible is being contextualized
and rewritten in the today’s scenario where a good percentage of Bangalore
Malayali Christian girls are reliving the life of the Samaritan woman whom
Jesus confronts when she came to draw water from the well. The Holy Gospel according
to St. John Chapter 4, word-cycles from 1 to 40 narrate the story of Jesus and
the Samaritan woman.

If we could anticipate the catastrophe – we would be better equipped to handle it
Life
is always a blend of both happiness and sorrows as there is a sunlight for a
rain and there is a mountain for a valley. When we are obsessed with people and
things we are unlikely to foresee the other side of the coin as in the kind of
catastrophe that could occur other way around. If we could anticipate
emotionally the misfortune that is about to hit us we will be better equipped
to handle when it really hits us with a sudden turnaround of things.

An innocent girl being forced to wear a cruel-mask
The
gender she belongs to and the unprecedented atrocities against her flock make
otherwise sweet girl to act stubborn and to be looked cruel. Annamika is the
epitome of the slogan ‘Survival of the Fittest’ and teaches us that a girl should
find ways to move forward in the patriarchal society which looks down woman as
an object where her subjectivity is being always challenged and at stake.

Life of common man always crippled by government’s inaction
The
mantra of Oommen Chandy led UDF government is ‘with great speed more distance.’ But on the contrary here the life
of a common man is moving at snail's pace, this is the how the slogan is actually
translated into the life of common man. The life of a common man is always torn
asunder and his life is always at troubleshoots when the government which is
supposedly to work for his well being is always in quiescence.

Mass Contact Programme of Oommen Chandy just a political game
The much
hyped mass contact organized by Shri. Oommen
Chandy takes us back to the period of old kingly rule where the King used to
meet his people (praja) on special occasions and seeking their needs, he fulfilled
their wishes in terms of money and material goods. In a democratic system of government,
it is not the way that the government should function, when we have a well
established administrative hierarchy and various departments to look into the
matters concerning the people and implement solutions.
