Ghost cat terrorise Muslims of Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh.
There has been scores of attacks and hundreds of sighting.Yesterday the residents of Noor Basti beat up Shabana a dancer until she passed out. Somebody had spread the word that the black cat had entered her body.
The ghost cat reportedly attacked one Sharique of Telia Chowk yesterday another reported of seeing the ghost cat turning into a fox. Afzal of Arabic Madarsa was attacked inside the madarsa. The incidents is keeping mounting up.
The localities worst hit by the black shadow of devil and black cat are:Pandoli, Dhola Beri, Chalkana, Than Keri, Noor Basti, Choob Froshan, Mojhalla Mufti, Mohalla Ayi, nanota Nagal, Garhi Maluk, Shyam Puri Gopal Nagar e.t.c. There are 400 localities haunted by the ghost cat.
All attempts by authorities to dispel the terror of black cat and black shadow has come to nought. S.S.P Amit Chandra is fighting a losing battle in making the believers believe that phenomenon is nothing but hoax and a mischief. Faithfuls are swearing: it is real.
One Mr. Hashim a 6o year old hafiz ,and a long aquaintence reported to me that he had been to Saharanpur and he himself the black ghost attacking his acquaintence in full view of a score of on-lookers.

India is Collapsing
If you could only read the writtin on the wall and possess a Rosetta Stone. Our established institutions , our pillars are collapsing. Many were startled by revealation made by a number of Supreme Court and High Court judges, and some do'nt that our Criminal Justice System is collapsing.
No other than our own Primeminister Hon'ble Manmohan Singh declared, while addressing the nation from the ramparts of Red Fort, that corruption is our worst enemy last year.
25000 atom bombs did not prevent Soviet Union from collapsing.
Can we pre-empt our collapse with a pay-load 80 crore hungry and cancer of curroption effecting every single organ.
Wether it is Central Govt or State Govenments they are govern like a scared, shrunk, squirming rabbit or like masons working inside a delipidated, brittle crumbling mansion, ever afraid of messing up and collapse

Friday prayer and an innocent thief in Jamiat mosque.
Jamiat mosque at I.T.O New Delhi, India
As I descended the last stairs in its open cemented compound, facing the main gate, I was instinctively drawn towards the spot where a motley crowd of around 100 faithfuls had gathered around a person wearing loose blue shirt, red threads tied around his wrist. The man was terrified and was making weird gestures. He was the same man who distributed free Urdu News paper: " Aftab-e hind" to the faithfuls every Friday. I too had collected the newspaper from him a number of timesin the past. "pickpocket", "thief" such words bandied in the crowd. The cloud dissipated. The Mullaji - one of the maulanas and caretakers, a young man in his 30 had beckoned the poor man from inside the mosque compound. He refused his biddings. The Mullah had sprinted towards him. He made a bid to flee in panic. He was caught. As Mullaji grappled with him he laid himself flat on the sidewalk. The faithfuls coming out of the mosque after offering friday prayer lifted into the compound holding his hand and feet and without giving a second thoughtbeat him up. That was the end of the matter with him.
"Your manner of beckoning him must have been intimidating that made him panicky, given he is a poor fellow and belonging to another community." I said angrily.
The Mullahji retorted : " The same treatment would have been meted out to you if you had behaved like him"
"I would have thrashed you if you had done so with me" I said.
"you'd have known if it had only happened." replied mullaji dirisively.
Some lawyers from our court who had come to the mosque to offer Friday prayer approached the site and asked me to leave the place because they were afraid about my safety.
As I was leaving the mosque the mullahji passed highly derogatory and provocative comments. He also was making fun of my weak frail and poor dress to the accompaniment of laughter of the crowd of faithfuls there and additions and polishing up of taunts.
This happened day before yesterday on Friday the 24th June 2009 at grand Jamiat mosque situated at I.T.O New Delhi.
Remorseless Mullaji.
